Chinatown Trip Part 2
A night view of Chinatown.
Chinatown ain't the dark, funky(Courtesy of Anlin) and slimy place where eccentric old folks hangout anymore. Now, it's litted by innumerable neon signboards, renovated and re-renovated. However old people still roam the streets! ^^
Wah! Popular Bookstore also want a piece of Chinatown! I say fire their marketing analyst!
Popped in to see how are they holding. The foreboding feeling I had when I arrive at its doorstep.
Chinese words which evidently wasn't meant to be read. By me at least.
Chinese distant relatives to Japenese Oni(Monsterous Beings). Kidding!
Feeling the shiver down your spine? Oops I forgot. Didn't mean to rub your spinelessness in your face. Jesting! Take it from me. The shiver's there.
To my horrific realisation, all I see around are Chinese books! OMFG! Somebody call the cops, no call the national guard! Oops wrong continent.
The only binded bundle of paper which looks remotely like a English book was Harry Potter. I simply felt it's too horendous to take pictures of. I mean what kind of values will I be pouring into the minds of my young viewers?
On a seperate note, I feel that what the entire Harry Potter series had achieved was merely hitting the G-spot of the 8-12 demographic. Have fun reading and getting an orgasm.
It's an metaphor. Check that up at www.dictionary.com before you run off yelling paedophile.
There are lovers and haters to all that's popular. *Insert Darth Vadar's intonation and asmathism* Join the dark side! *Grasp for air*
Back to the trip! ^^
OMG! Chinese spirit have taken over Jerk! Oh wait he's Chinese to begin with.
The night was still young and much of Chinatown remained untrodden. What did we do? More touristic wondering around Chinatown!
The unique spirally walkway that never was recongnised.
Another look at the failure of an architecture.
It's been ages since I last went. My impression of that place was that's large and special(I'm a kid back then, so by all means blame my limited range of vocabs.).
Guess thing just looks gigantic and foreign when we're young.
WAH! Hello Kitty shop! Everything is like so pink!! Anyone seen my gasoline and lighter? Kidding!
In China, babies are being raised for their infant hair to make quality paintbrush. Not! Just some novelty shop offering to make paintbrush out of your kid's infant hair.^^
The bottomline is, if you've open a shop there, you'll need the number soon! LOL!
Alrighty then. It's rainy today so I'm gonna catch up on my sleep. With that, I bid you good day.
FUNKED IT ALL UP ON 2:00:00 PM
