Tanline limits

Where should the tanlines end?

No revealing tats

No revealing tattoos

There will be plenty of photographic evidence of my having gone crazy at this party - Yen's 5th anniversary. It was a timely outlet for the pent-up frustration building up inside me. My friends could not know how much pressure I am under, but surely they could guess my crazed behaviour was due to some stress they had hitherto unknown. At least I was a happy madman - with the best of friends.

Tuanjiehu Park Pool

Anonymous hot guy

The first visit there a couple of days ago was awesome. The BF & I joined a couple of friends in the gay quarter. It was like being at Destination - minus the smoke-filled rooms & predictable music. My beginner's luck did not let me down ~ when entering the change room for the very first time, there was a tall, beefy & HUNG Chinese guy all lathered up in the shower giving everyone a full show of himself. Good thing we could cool down in the pool right away!

Proxy workaround - updated!

Sad to say my blog is no longer easily accessible in China.

The Blogspot/Blogger domain has been fire-walled.

So posting this is done via a free - though slow and inconsistent - proxy.

Hope things return to 'normal' again soon.

VPN rocks!
Right past the GFW!

My hard day at the office

For today's filming, I wasn't expecting this.

It was *almost* enough just watching him.

But it turns out oiling him up was tops.

An H&M in My Hood!

Opening tomorrow across the street from my place!

Sauna, scrub and massage

At long last we made our way over again to the small public bath house at Beixinqiao for a sauna, body scrub and a massage. While I was on the table, I couldn't help but wonder who takes this kind of job. Is it a booming business or are fewer people going? There were no other customers at what I would guess should be a busy time in the evening. The place is quite clean and the sauna, turned on for our arrival, heated up quite quickly. After about an hour there, I felt squeaky clean!

Super horny daze

Starts out with the long weekend at the Strawberry Festival,
then ends up with me naked in bed in front of a film crew -

with another guy... and I'm going back for more!

Hot DJ... has a name~ Jaume Prats

Questionably hot - certainly crazy - DJ

Hot half-naked boy

Super-cute bartender whipping up Mojitos

In all fairness, none of the three days at the Strawberry Festival in Tongzhou led me to the point of getting naked in front of a camera - during or after. Though I did get 'lost' on the way back to my place on the first night. I couldn't hold myself any longer after drinking so much and had to get off the train to find a washroom, somewhere - anywhere! Still not used to the no-walls in many of Beijing's public washrooms. Potentially cruisy places, I suppose - but there's no way I could endure the smell any longer than it took to empty my bladder.

So how did I end up naked in front of a film crew with another guy, you ask? Well, I wish I could give all the details, but due to the terms of my contract I'm really not allowed to divulge anything about this movie. However, I can and will say: it is a gay film, I get to be naked with another guy and there are more nude scenes to be shot in the coming days. Exciting, to say the least!

Gayographic Night at Lantung (兰棠同志之夜）

The Beijinger.com's view of Lantung

One Thursday evening last month I went to Lantung in Solana for what was supposed to be the start of a new gay night. Only 20 people showed up, but no matter - I was in great company, the drinks were cheap & tasty and the music was as gay as it gets.

One gripe was the trek one has to make from the taxi stand to Bar Street. To be fair, it was cold and windy that night, but we found cutting through the underground parkade to be a warmer way back.

So here's hoping that tomorrow night's "Gayographic Night at Lantung" will be e great success! (There are already 41 confirmed guests according to their Facebook group.)

H&M's Double Opening

Opening day in Qianmen

I became a fan of H&M even before I ever stepped foot in one of their shops.

(Thanks to you-know-who-you-are for that cute scarf!)

Finally, H&M came to Vancouver, and now they're here in Beijing. Aside from the great selection of clothing that actually fits my body, H&M stores are one of the best places to see one of the largest assortment of hot gay men outside a gay club.

Naturally, it was nothing short of madness at the Qianmen location opening last Thursday. Even the rain couldn't dampen the crowds. Tomorrow will surely see even more people at the Xidan opening, even if the forecast for rain comes true.
