There is a message post on Facebook by my former boss that talk about a guy in China who help people to order the ticket before important holidays. He is a Peking University student whose name is Ji-Yang Pei (裴濟洋), 23 years old. There is a report from China’s TV station and the link is as following.

In China, people who left home for working would go home every Chinese Lunar New Year. It is the biggest human migration period in the world and it’s quite hard to get a ticket to go home. Pei provide more opportunity for those people to get a ticket especially the underprivileged ones in past three years. Later, he did not just provide the fish but also teach us how to fish. Pei post a thousand words of article on the internet to let us know how to do it. Because of this, he become a famous person, lots of people call him the Ticket King of Peking University.

[Miscellaneous] Great BBQ in Neihu

Fri, 04 Jul 2008 00:00:00 +0000

In Neihu, there’s a great BBQ spot on the road in front of the main gate of Lishan Junior High School, near Gang-Qian Road. It’s called Chuan Men Zi BBQ (串門子燒烤) — pretty solid! There’s a bookstore next door. Hours are 17:00 to 24:00. You can call ahead to order and then pick up — it’s takeout only, not the kind of place you sit down with friends for a long chat.

[Miscellaneous] Taiwan Electrician + Mover + Waiter + Driver

Tue, 09 Oct 2007 00:00:00 +0000

The day after the typhoon, I went back home to help my parents move to their new place. Heading out early in the morning, I got my first real glimpse of how powerful this typhoon had been — motorcycles were knocked over in dominoes. It was genuinely the first time I’d seen a domino effect made entirely out of motorcycles. Honestly, Taipei City government should consider reorganizing all motorcycle parking spots around the entire city — next time a typhoon hits, Taiwan could set a Guinness World Record. That would be one unique way to be in the spotlight.
