My Blogging is Working Again!
Topic of the day: I'm back!

A belated happy 2007!
My Australian trip was great (more to come soon!) and am back in Beijing now. Even though a new year started, with Chinese New Year around the corner, things in China still feels they're still wrapping up.
Work has been very busy and life, when living in Beijing, can never be too dull. Take, for example, a recent friend I've made: Bobby Tailor. If you're familiar with Motown, then you've probably heard of Bobby Tailor and the Vancouvers. Well, he's that Bobby. Besides a bursting personality, he's got numerous stories to tell (like being good friends with Ray Charles!). Bobby is also the one who discovered the Jackson Five and wrote some of their most famous songs, like ABC and I Want You Back. He is also currently trying to bring Michael Jackson to China! I've already made him promise to let me take a picture with the star himself if he ever makes it. :)
On the topic of interesting people, I'm realizing that I really enjoy meeting all sorts of characters that can be found in Beijing and listening to their stories (as opposed to sitting in front of a computer all day long). If I liked writing more, I would've definitely pursued a print journalism career! Anyway, it's something interesting to investigate into...
More next time!
