How would you react when you see the train door closing in your face but you are on the outside of the train? Do you run for it? Or calmly wait for the next one?

I witnessed this Daredevil who ran for a closing door 6 meters away.

Yes, he reached the door in time but couldn't get through it, caught himself smack between 2 doors.

"OMG..." I thought he's going to be torn apart between them if the train moves... But he wiggled himself free BACK to the platform. Ha ha.. for all he has been thru, he should have wiggled INTO the train.

So when the train moved away, he was left standing there feeling super embarrassed since there were so many people watching his stunt.

Chinatown is getting more and more robust these days, with the opening of the 500 stalls, people are happily stall-shopping-no-buying. I know someone who knows one of the stall owner, he said "Now is not making much money, people look see look see only, waiting for the last minute to cut our throat"

Yesterday, I saw a cute sight there. Few brave teachers brought about 10 pre-schoolers to the heart of the Chinatown for an excursion, showing them our very own heritage and experiencing the heat and smelling other people's B.O in the mid of the day.

The kids seems to be more interested in the drinks and ice-cream rather than the Lup-Cheong and mandarin oranges. Seriously... they are only waist high, what do you expect them to see?

It reminds me of the time we brought Isabel to Bangkok weekend market, 95% of the time she was on my shoulder including eating and drinking. The only time she came down to the ground was for ice-cream, trying out new clothing and look at the puppies.
