@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ Welcome! 欢迎!@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

Welcome to my virtual home. This is a little private space for me to put my thoughts and share my feelings since 2005. Due to my wide range of interests, there are perhaps too many tags. I would explain some of the less obvious tags:

"About Life" is really about how I have been pondering about life and what enlightenments and paradigm shifts I had experienced.

"About Psi" contains most topics about happiness, optimism vs pessimism,
confidence, comparison, pride and prejudice and other psychological aspects.

"About Logical Thinking" is about my own way of interpretating and explaining
certain issues, aiming to debunk (or create?) superficialness of them.

"About Ideology" is about my thoughts on big concepts like freedom, justice,
fairness in society and religion.

"About Society" is more about my observations about the society, often through interactions with different peoples.

"My Country" reveals my frustration, critics and hope
on my homeland - Malaysia.

"My Little Pieces" has more short posts though mostly are written in Mandarin.

While I do have some posts on book reviews and business, I am planning to
separate them into author-specific and content-specific blogs. Stay tuned.

Enjoy your reading!

爬山记(1)- Kowloon Peak

老实说,来香港之前从来没有想象过的活动是---Hikking。香港不是一个大城市吗,怎么会在香港爬山呢?但到了这边才懂得原来香港群山连接,平地极少,难怪寸金如土。其实我身在的香港中文大学就建立在山上(比南大高很多哦),虽然上山下山有点辛苦,但却随时可以看到无敌海景和夜景,真的爽得不得了。
 
第一次爬的山是沙田的Kowloon Peak。(如果没猜错?)原本只是要在沙田附近走走看看有什么景点,拜访了车公庙、香港文物博物馆,穿越了许多公寓后,在靠近沙田围mtr station的地方发现了郊野径地图。于是我们一直沿着这条柏油路上去,经过一两个新村和童军营地后,看到了一个“请各位清明拜山人士别随意留下易燃物品”的告示。抬头四周望一下才发觉在山腰处真有几个坟墓(有一些坟墓还放着一些酒缸,到底是什么风俗呢?),看来这些家庭可真的讲究风水。。。之后上山的路线就属于泥路(但很安全),不久就到了其中一个山顶。
 
哇!从山上望下去的风景简直美的不得了,之前上山耗费的力量完全是值得的。我看不到南边的港岛因为被更高的山封住了视线,但我却可以很清楚地俯瞰北边整个沙田新市镇的风景:刚才去过的博物馆,那些绚丽的购物中心,四周矗立的高楼,还有一条从海边流进去市中心的“护城河”,那几条跨越河的行人桥。这远比刚才在博物馆看到的模型真实,更令人震撼!尝试寻找中文大学的所在地,不过似乎被山坡挡住了,只能通过辨认“tolo harbour”来推测大学的位置,看起来还蛮远的。。。还有略微在西边的一座高山,似乎就是那座全港最高的大帽山,呵呵,期待登上去俯瞰全港的景色。
 
但令人喷血的是我居然看到有一幢大厦在其顶部悬挂巨大的可口可乐广告牌,以其高度根本不是让行人看的。这分明给登山的人看的。纳闷:究竟这叫创意、厉害还是叫浪费、愚蠢。但这奇怪事确实令我觉得很好笑,滑稽的广告牌。
 
我们赶在日落前下到有街灯的地方,但走到那时脚已酸得不得了,只能停下来休息一下。虽然累,但确实值得。意外发现、惊喜探索、神怡景色、广阔视野,哇,爽!决定了,我一定要去完香港所有可登的路线,尤其是那些鲜为人知的,呵呵~
