The Rainbow Flight

I find myself in a CX flight to Hongkong listening to Lykke Li,
remembering my Josue. Hmmm...

In the lounge earlier, between my beef noodle and steamed dimsum- loving the
noodle bar and thinking it is the best idea in any lounge so far- I
found myself staring at the world map, examining how small the island of Dominican
Republic is, Josue's origin. He was born in New York
though.

As I start changing my attention to other things, I noticed that it
was time to board the plane.

On the way to the plane, I got a message from Josue prompting me to call him. As we
exchange our final sweet words, I could not help but start feeling a
bit lonely. I got so used to waking up to him coming
home from school.

I started to miss him officially.

From my seat I started noticing the number of gay boys in the
plane. Guess they all came from G5. Welcome to the rainbow flight en
route to Bangkok, Thailand!

Despite the excitement I feel in seeing my friends a few hours later, I can't help
but ponder on the last few days that have gone by.

I feel I had changed for the better.

But then I ask myself, given the opportunity to do it all again, would I?

All I can say for now is I am glad I did it.

Not!

Now that I think about it, I am pretty excited to see my friends.

Although, as the day ends, the more i find it difficult to accept that I will be leaving Ban Qiao temporarily.

Not a good feeling.

Im beginning to loose a part of myself, giving space to a new me, down to earth, simple, happy and excited, and a bit Dominican Black on the side.

And who said about going black and never coming back?

I did better.

Not bad.

Paul in Bangkok

Paul is now in Bangkok. He has been there since Christmas eve and only God knows what he has been up to.

I received a message from him today saying that has gotten himself an apartment with a huge party place.

I am arriving tomorrow evening after which i am planning to meet up with him or dinner.

Angela, my dear best friend, instructed her driver to pick me up in the airport and bring me to her apartment, while the maid awaits for my arrival.

hmm..


What a life, i am back where i belong..

G5

Now on to G5. Typing this entry in a cab going to Chris' place.

Chris - a guy I met with Josue during the first time I visited.

With us in the cab is Brendan, Josue's housemate which earlier on I
helped to pick up a shirt for tonight.

Brendan- young Canadian studying engineering in Taipei with a friend
visiting from Toronto, Jimmy.

Jimmy- who now is dating brendan's russian friend who's got a funny
accent everytime she yells "brrrreenndhhhannn"

G5- famous gay party in Taipei full of shit and Taiwanese
guys.

We went in, hands clasped. Josue leading the way. While a sea of half
naked Taiwanese men rocks from side to side, we initially stayed in
the secomd floor until we found ourselves Kitty high and in the VIP area
of the Dj booth.

Josue's ex was playing, Dj David S. I met him him long before Josue
came to Taiwan, in the back of a jeep in Phuket, Thailand during the
nation 5 party. He was then just starting.

The music was amazing andso was emily and kitty. Everything was going
slow then fast then slow, my vision was 2d, 3d, 3d, 4d... And so on..

It was a good night.

I was exhausted.

The Characters We Play

The personalities in Taipei are quite interesting. We met several
people that night. Jose, a Spanish guy passing through taipei.

He grabs me from the table in funky. Me being swept away as the
vallium kicks in with the second bottle of Absolute.

Found myself lip locking with Jose a few times hence the my friends
started baptizing me with a new name.

I met Josue that night, and everytime I would pass by him, he would
grab and press my hand.

We were four boys that night, four different characters, one mindset.

Enjoy Taipei.

Bob-Miranda
Eddy-Carrie
Roj-Charlotte
And me, Samantha.

Great, now I'm a fucking slut.

So now I'm in Taipei. Got it as a free ticket from being a marco polo
member.

Sweet.

I have been planning to go back anyways since the first time Bob,
Eddy, Roj and myself went there two weeks back. Before we even left, I have finished planning my return.

I wonder why.

So we decided to go on a move and start the party in rooms.

Yakult and vodka - not bad, thanks Bob.

As the night deepens we went to a club called Funky, as this place
can't get any smellier, I spent 4k NT, a whole pill of valium and a
bunch of fabulous friends around me.

The night was just starting.

I am high. ;-)
