2010 international flora exposition part 2

hello everyone!here are some watery shots/views i took from the 2010 International Flora Exposition in Taipei designed and participated by different countries around the world,the exposition should be finish this year april  25,2011...the exposition will be the first internationally recognized exposition to take place in taiwan and the seventh of its kind to take place in Asia.Am still hoping to take one more glance at the expo before it will close this april(fingers cross)i will beg for hubby to bring me there one more time because our first visit there was not enough and it's like we only saw all the flower exhibit from different countries but not totally explore the whole vicinity were you can find more exciting exhibit including the one from New Zealand and i will be to much dissapointed if hubby won't allow me to go there again...so,for him to grant my request i will be too nice and more sweet for the next few months lol!and perhaps will surprise him this valentines and on his coming birthday this month...(excited much...!LoL)

                                Palau island's temperature ranges to 33-35 degrees(i got sunburn here lol!) always on daytime and there's a few rain showers on night time....quite amazing because even the sun shines so brightly the rain will just suddenly fall on your hotel roof lol!

wind power park at cijin

this wind power park is located at cijin kaohsiung erected facing the beach,one of the most visited park in cijin not only because of the seven wind power standing there but also because of the beautiful views of the waves coming from the sea...if you are a nature lover you will appreciate more the scenery coming from the sea waves and those kites flying at the sky..there was a rain that day so my photos are a bit dark,i guess i need to return there by 2011 at summer time again because i am sure that until now the remains of typhoon last month was still there(i saw it on the news)i ask hubby to check that out after the typhoon but he told me it's quite dangerous to go there because we saw the water coming from the sea is really too high and it almost coming through the highway...

...... the ceiling,roofs and the stairs of jhongsing pagoda @ cheng ching lake

jhongsing pagod is also one of the main attraction at cheng ching lake aside from the nine-cornered bridge and fu kuo islet that i have posted but this one might be the most tiring yet fulfilling place that i've been to at cheng ching lake...once you've reached the top you can view the whole city of kaohsiung...

for the meantime let me share to you some of the photos that i captured during my visit to the pagoda...i really enjoyed capturing the angles of its ceiling,stairs and its roof as well....i may post the whole story and full views of the pagoda at my photoblog...(hope you check it out!)...by the way these photos are taken using my old point and shoot sony digicam....thank you for dropping by and to those who come by to comment  at my previous post please forgive me if i comment back so late sometimes it is due to my busy work loads that sometimes i can't even open my pc but i am sure to visit and comment on your blogs once i am free...thank you!GOD BLESS YOU ALL!

innocence,loneliness and hard work

just for fun and to unload all my stress i tried to join the photocontest of 2010 PEBA INTERNATIONAL PHOTO CONTEST though i am not sure if im gonna win co'z i know there are lot more better than me some are professional photographers and some are just like me a photographer wannabe lol! but we all have one thing in common ...an OFW who live outside the country to work and earn a living for our family... since the theme for this year was about  family i chose this two photos that represents the "HARD WORK" and "INNOCENCE vs. LONELINESS".... as an  OFW we face a lot of hard work just to earn and give the best of everything for our love ones,save a little for the future and hoping that someday  we can be together with them again...especially with our kids whom we left,some of us leave those kids with our parents or anyone from close trusted relatives though it is always a hard part to leave them behind we still keep those tears on our self just to pursue something that will bring them good future,a good education that we always wanted them to be finished and a good life that some of us parents didn't experience in our time(should i need to mention me not having a computer not even a cellphone or an iphone during my time)those kids we left back home never know how hard it is to be an OFW...and never they will understand how us(OFW) sacrificed everything for them... their "innocence"will keep them smiling till the time they will know and understand the word OFW and experienced to be an ofw by themselves "LONELINESS" is still out of their curiosity so i guess this two photos rolled into one...i don't expect much joining this contest being a part of it as a supporter to PEBA is more than enough for me but if you still like to join me you can GO and VOTE for my entry....

~sorry seems to be the hardest word!!!

why is it sometimes saying "your sorry" was a bit too hard?....since i am living here in taiwan i've noticed that saying "sorry" and "thank YOU" is quite easy for the local people it is like they're just saying a very common word not unlike with a lot of people i know in my country including me when i said sorry i really meant it and one thing for sure i will never ever give my sorry that easy if i know i done nothing wrong well,for some reasons(work related and i really hated it)i forced myself to learn how to say sorry in a very rare situation(not that i don't say sorry) but in my heart i am so sad because i know it's not my fault and i just need to say that word because that is the only thing they were waiting TO MAKE EVERYTHING CLEAR...it's like once you've said it to them then it's all gone(even it will hurt you so much) don't get me wrong here i am not a bad person and i know if i need to say that word but what the heck!!! do i really have to say sorry to them everytime?feel's like losing my dignity(sorry bou't that feeling) do you think it's necessary to say sorry even on just small things like you forgot to say or give your number when you change it and they called you and can't reach you then later on they will confront you and will make things big just because you did'nt share your new number to them huh!...i believed it's my private thing and i can choose the people i want to share it with and give  it on my most appropriate and convinient time?....

well,not for them cause they believe THEY OWN YOU and they can demand anything to you....sigh.... did i mention i am not that bad and forced myself to JUST SAY IT TO FORGET EVERYTHING and bring back everything into place..... very simple word that is so hard to say,can bring pain to someone who is not good enough to accept defeat or demand(whatever you may call it),a word that may kill your feelings and crushed your dignity into one.....NO,no...i don't want to think it that way  i was raised to be understanding and to have a lot of  patience by my parents and thinks that now is the right time i could use those hidden treasure of mine lol! recently,one of the people at my work was becoming more and more impulsive and demanding...and i was hoping it will end soon before i could use all my banked patience lol!not to mention loads of stress she painting at me and never ever say and give my "SORRY" to the upper position for not so important case...so i just hope things will get better sooner not soon....

if not i'll just bite my arm and say it over and over again  if that is what they wanted me to say..lol!(just like singing merry christmas song...hahhhaha)

good thing there are beautiful things like sunrise and sunsets to keep me going just like these photos of sunsets capture at cheng ching lake looking far to the nine-cornered bridge...!

hello guys...hope everyone of you are in good condition..though i am not so happy i think i still need to say something here...my mom is sick she slept again(she always slept for many many times huh!)and im a bit upset co'z yesterday also my sister mother-in-law just passed away and i can't help myself to cry she's been so good to us and she's my mom's best pal....sigh* i know wherever she is now she's happy to be with her husband....why is it always too hard to smile and be happy when you're missing someone and want them to hug but you can't...oh my!i miss everyone especially my dad,my sister,my two brothers,my nephew and my grandparents....i just wish i could give and pay a visit to them once i get back to my country next month....yesss...im going home and i can't wait anymore...i wish it's december now....forgive me guys if i can't share anything good this time my mind and heart is really full of loneliness....hope you understand....and thanks for your visit....

it's your birthday.....lightbluelife!!!

a year of blogging .....can't believed it!yes,after all those computer problems and lost pictures still i am here why?it's because this is just my only way to let go  all the things that i wanted to released from my everyday life...my daily routine as a working girl for more than 11 years now causing me too much stress sometimes and i need something to do to be relieved even just for a single moment of my precious time....though,i am not that good in english  and not a professional photographer i will just continue what i have started as long as i am free to touch my keyboard and there's something  new  to share....i  don't mind to be criticized at all for all i know is that i am happy with what  am doing....you can judge,read or tell me anything i will accept it just make sure  it will be a constructive criticism and i can thank you for that well,of course destructive criticism is also welcome here but be kinder a little okey? cause i am not perfect and i really need to sharpen my rusty mind....and maybe soon,soon am going to overhaul it hahahhahhaha(if i still have time to do that)life is so busy and fast everyone wants to reach the top and make sure that their life is at it's best and so am i... running to do my very best "NOT TO REACH THE TOP" but "TO DO WHAT I BELIEVED WILL MAKE ME HAPPY"  am 34 maybe not as young as my blog but i will try to keep this one(my blog-lightbluelife) as long YOU are with me....yes,you because it's you who added life to my blog and it's you who made this one to reach it's  first year ANNIVERSARY......thank YOU....
