The day before yesterday my friends, and I went to a KTV to celebrate a farewell party. Yeah, one of my friends is leaving Taiwan. Because she wants to go to another country to study her bachelor. We were all kind of sad, but at the same time happy that she will go to the country she was dreaming of. That day we talked a lot, and sang, danced we did a lot of things. I'm very sad about this, but I wish her the best on this new challenge.

My favorite picture

This picture was taken in Govi desert (Mongolia), but not in central Govi.Thisn is a shamanist pile of rocks on a pass between moutains hill of stones (called an Ovoo). In Govi, temperatures reach +40° C. in summer, and -30C. in winter. While some areas only get rain once every two or three years. Strong winds up to 140 km/h make travel dangerous in spring and fall. I visited Govi with my family this summer vacation 2010 we had a very happy time, we piled up these rocks for blessedness. We need to walk around these piled of rocks three times and that time we can think god bless me or wish something.

Chinggis Khan (Чингис Хаан).
