Breezing through the MixC. Blog photos for HiPANDA. Walking around with 4x6 cash notes. The larger the bill...literally, the larger the bill. WINNING with pens at Muji. Gold typewriters at Vuitton. Green bottled lite Snow. Hangzhou. Balenciaga, Metro, Prada, then Novo. Elegant Prosper, Silk weave Dujour. Wait! Did you say tapestries woven with silk, by hand, with the option of dual-sided? Dior, bourbon conch, jiggly rosemary jellied livers. Tang's Palace. Private pod, dim, solely lit by a crystal ball. We were suspended over a pyramid lattice dome above the dining court below. "We don’t leave when the restaurant closes-the restaurant closes when we leave". Steamed, lavender scented moist towelette. Daily L'Officiel, Versace, and Ermenegildo. Luxury suites and fancy sweets. IMAX- I don't know the plot. I get the drift so I'm rolling like I'm smoking pot. Speaking of smoking- Zhongnanhai, post lunch, at the dining table, one per person. Waitress asking, "May I light that for you?" Asia Table above orange blossom Starbucks. Signing autographs, stopped for photos while shopping. A team of assistants- I didn't even throw away my own trash. Would you like more tea? Personal drivers, pics with door staff, and chilling encounters. Styling contemporary and signature collections by West Lake. Language training-up, down, flat, and looped. Late night analysis on the state of fashion and how to define fashion of this period. Shared ideals and creativity. Singing trash truck to fireworks every 30 minutes. Served lavish delights amongst CEO's alike. VP's to Director's. Translator translating:"You gather many eyes of delight". Crouching tiger. No, actually I'm an ox [85]. Teddy bear back pockets. Edge of Glory (set up to perform after a few glasses of wine). Mystic dragons and lotus flowers-metallic. Full bloomed courtyard oasis. Parks with stone circles, sundials, and streams running through. Vitamin C gummies- raspberry, peach, blueberry, strawberry, pineapple. Addicted! Chopsticks- mi'fan, bai'cai, dumplings. Kirin milk tea. Cafe at Grand King Plaza. Magenta orchid-liquid orange croco. Pre-work tiramisu and chocolate covered berries. Cartoon characters and elevator floor pushers. Guards on every corner, foyer, and parkway. Housekeepers and bamboo street sweepers. Floral driveways. Audi's and Maserati's. Lamborghini, Maybach, electro-scooter, or rent-a-bike. Fresh carved fruit and gargantuan flowers. Driving 120 with exploding bursts of colossal fire blossoms at your side. Into oncoming traffic?!? Did he just stop and reverse on a busy Pudong highway? Stylish men- long haired, chopped curl, or stacked punk buzz. Catwalks, contracts, and LaTiDaDi. New language foray- Ancient Babylonian, Italian, Mandarin, Cantonese. Jade Buddha's, VPL's & RMB's. Asian hair salon-25 Yuan. He was tall, kind, and cute. We shared fruit. A glistening, peacock feathered, flowering, black back chicken crack. Photo storm. Camera-*thumbs & peace signs* Veh'eh'Kool. Video-beaming center front. Visions of sidewalk beauties- lovers finger linked or swathed in fur while pumping in heels. Melodic XiHu watershows, red carpets, flying lit objects. Pagoda. Mongolia. Arctic Circle- iceberg. Snow-capped volcano. Exclusive island airport. Villa in Milan. DZI- the more eyes the more value of Heaven's Pearl. Cocktail waitresses, French chicken Lay's. White-grey-black-red. Stone-luster. Steamed showers, parquet floors, East/ West veranda's and ebony/ivory sliding closets. Skyrise neighbors-I'm perplexed. Burning votive-light blue Yankee Candle. Good Morning! Why are you watching me dress? Stunned-not really. A spectrum Sun crest over dark moonlit glaciers beneath the heavens. Neon signs, orchid windows, glass offices. Months ago, I wrote BE THE COLOR. Smiles from the heart in a grey metropolis. Distant ships in the Qiantang River on less smoggy days. Rich, cultivated farmland with irrigation canals as far as the eye can see. Paul Frank face masks. Dust cloud. More fireworks. Red lanterns and curry foil. JFK indoor birds. China was up there with Paris. I don't say many places are like Paris-the thumping discotheques, serenading patisseries, and twinkling Eiffel Tower. It was beautiful. I wept (longitude:100/32/42W| latitude:75/50/5N). Thank You- Creator, Land, People, & Culture. Happy Year of the Snake (shé). EMBRACE YOURSELF. SHARE LOVE. ORANGE BLOSSOM FASHIONABLE KISSES, 
-LORD TYKAI
