Prelude: The Kenyan plain always pulls an aching string in my peaceful heart. Every time a thought of her invades my oh so intelligent puny little mind, it shatters my very invincible and insatiable female ego that’s stuck in a hardened place called society, civility, decency and humanity. – I long to be the lone roaming undomesticatable elephant, the image of the free African spirit, who’d spend a life away in peace, innocence and content, grazing on her opulent grass, gazing at her setting sun, breathing her warm lucid air, dying a dignified death without a burial, upon her rich colorful soil. My love affair with Kenya was brief but everlasting. Yes, love, the very mystical phrase, whose meaning is ill-conceived and means awkwardly applied by many, is what I passionately feel for Kenya – as well as for, huh, let’s see – Tibetan plateau, coastal Brazil, South India, Kashmir, and half dozen more of wild places off the ...

As I have in different times exhibited to others ethnically confusing appearances ranging from Black, Hispanic to Asian and Caucasian, I've been asked often as to my ethnic background. I'm a "mixed-breed" of Chinese, British and Malaysian blood. I was born with pink complexion which stayed with me in my childhood, except that I grew abnormally fast (according to my parents, my skull solidified in 6 months after birth, and I already had 24 teeth by age 2, I reached approx. 5'7" by age 12, and 5'10" by 16, I've gotten 34 teeth by age 18, I still kept growing pass age 25, I'm now over 5'11"), I resembled the authentic pure Chinese breed (except my height and big British frame) throughout my childhood. It was not until my adulthood did my mixed-blood start to show gradually on me. I've been told I'm like a chameleon who picks up the looks of people where I live, this sounds baloney from a logical point of view, yet amusingly collaborate with many ...

Foreword note: I used to but no longer read, for reasons other than the lack of time or patience that commonly deter many people I know, especially some VIP(very impatient person)s, from reading (and reading even business letters, yet instead keeping phoning me with a bold "what is it?" after I spent hours writing what they'd pay for). I am confused and afraid to just pick up a book to read, it requires commitment for me to even read news articles and industry journals regularly. Am I not good with reading or is reading not good for me? It's both. I used to let the subjects and opinions get into me too much, as much as I had always liked to get into others' heads; and most of available readings out there nowadays more than ever are poisin or to the least rubbish that are unhealthy for me (maybe not for others). I admit that, seeing I am feeling stupid as ever, I don't have a high level of intelligence or discretion to pick the right healthy educational reads, or a ...
