Back to Taiwan

Came back to Taiwan this morning, after one month in France (yes, that's pretty long...).
The weather was nice so I could take nice pictures from the plane. 

La vie. La vraie. (Holiday in France)

My aunt's (sorry my unkle's) house. Actually it's a house for vacation, on the beach, yes. 

Decadence

Last week I got a pack of "Petits ecoliers", my favorite chocolate biscuit. I love it because there is a lot of chocolate on it, can't find this type in Asia. Unfortunatly there is no air conditionning in the shop (Monoprix in this particular case, which is a quite big shop). It is very hot in France now, over 30 degrees celcius in some regions and around 28 maybe in Paris. As a consequence, the chocolate was completly melted in the box when I opened it just after I got out of the shop. All the biscuits had became one piece of brown/black near-solid food (a standard box contains exactly 12 petits ecoliers).
Yesterday I got a bottle of Yop in Monoprix (again). I love Yop too, it is some sort of liquid yogurt. Got back home, open my bottle of Yop and, what a surprise, the bottle is half-full. Yes, someone got a yop (half of it to be precise) and left it in the store. Ok, I used to do it when I was a kid (also, eating the half of a petits ecoliers pack). But I didn't put it back next the other bottles after!

The video of the day :



Yes! It is a drama/gym/english-lesson/karaoke program! If they would tell the news and the weather forecast in the same time it would be the perfect all-in-one tv-show.

Pompe vers le haut de la confiture

Today it is hot in Paris, no AC, I could hardly focus on anything related to work. I found some interessting stuffs anyway. First you should check http://www.myspace.com/sexysushimusic (thank you Yannick to make my discover myspace). I can not report all the great videos you can find on youtube.com
Just reminds me about Technotronic, "Pump up the Jam" (込み合いをポンプでくみなさい)
Ah yes also I found something related to work in wikipedia: http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotation
I understood at that time that the program I am working on makes rotations with a wrong formula so I totally gave up to do anything usefull today.

Train

Going back to Paris by train, nothing special except the fact that it is almost 10pm and still sunny.

Back to France

What is new in France? My coworker can watch the world cup in hd on their 82 inches LCD screens (so that's where all those Taiwanese products are going!). My grand mother is raising pigeons in the garden, big ones, already saw two of them in the fridge (my cousins loves it, my grand mother says so). Of course everybody loves football, but it's been just two days now so it is some kind of hard to get used to it. Always surprising to see how french people can change their mind so fast. Everybody complains because it is too hot, but actually everybody complains because June was too rainy. Bread in Paris is definitely the best.
So what's new? Nothing much... Let you know if I find something.
