Sometimes you would wish that you had known someone at an earlier or a later time, but the truth is, if you had met such person at a time more desirable to you, probably neither of you would have been able to achieve what you have or don't have right at this moment. Probably you wouldn't have wanted to know each other; probably you would have become foes, instead of friends.
It's destiny.

Paoma Historic Trail （跑馬古道）
I just saw on a website about Paoma Historic Trail (跑馬古道), which reminded me of Wufengqi Waterfalls （五峰旗瀑布） so I did a little research on this historic trail and found out Wufengqi Waterfalls is actually very close to this historic trail.
I have been to Wufengqui Waterfalls few years ago so I guess it was probably on my way to the waterfalls that I caught sight of the sign to the historic trail, which made the name seem so familiar to me, but I am sure that I have never been to this grandiose-sounding historic trail. God I really like its name.
Paoma Historic Trail is said to be part of the grander Danlan Historic Trail (淡蘭古道), linking current Xindian (新店) and Jiaoxi (礁溪). According to the websites I found, the transportation to this trail is not quite convenient. It may be easy to get to the entrance on the Jiaoxi end, but there's no connection transportation on the Xindian end once you finish the hike.
Well, I am sure I will visit this place one day, but I just don't know when and how.

Poolside Story
I was swimming in a mixture of warm yet fading sunlight, upbeat yet tedious music, informative yet brain-hurting magazine, and my calm yet somewhat distracted mind, when all of a sudden a face I recognized came into view.
The swimmers kept swimming; the smokers kept smoking; the readers kept readingl; the watchers kept watching; and I, for one who was distracted by the sight and plunged into a myriad of episodes of poolside fantasies, could only keep on pretending nothing had happened.
Yet the occasional glances seemed to foretell a destined encounter that would take place a few minutes later. On this particular day as usual as ever, an extraordinary event occurred, caught me off gaurd and led me into an unfamiliar path.

YOUTH Park
The very first commemorable episode in my life of an exciting event took place in Youth Park on Saturday 30 May 2009.
That event really made my day and, so far, my week.
