    Enchanted

    Watched Enchanted on the 2nd day of Chinese New Year.  The movie's so funny! The song that play at the waltz scene's great and bittersweet! How many would love to have a waltz dance with their true love? How many would love to experience the fairy tale?
     
    So Close - Jon McLaughlin
     
    You're in my arms
    And all the world is calm
    The music playing on for only two
    So close together
    And when I’m with you
    So close to feeling alive

    A life goes by
    Romantic dreams will stop
    So I bid mine goodbye and never knew
    So close was waiting, waiting here with you
    And now forever I know
    All that I wanted to hold you
    So close

    So close to reaching that famous happy end
    Almost believing this was not pretend
    And now you're beside me and look how far we've come
    So far we are so close

    How could I face the faceless days
    If I should lose you now?
    We're so close
    To reaching that famous happy end
    And almost believing this was not pretend
    Let's go on dreaming for we know we are
    So close
    So close
    And still so far

    So close yet so far

    This term "so close yet so far" seems very abstract until you really have experienced it! I have profoundly feel it recently. when you stand next to somebody, you just don't know what to talk about. The conversation between are all those trivial things. You can feel he built high walls around and his heart is blocked. You have no idea what he's thinking and how he feels! You only feel that he's so far away from you and that's a bloody bad feeling! It really makes you feel blue and depress but nothing can be done.

    balance of the universe

    everything within this universe has two sides, just like the two sides of a coin.  we have light and we'll have darkness; we have good things and we'll have bad things; we have happiness and sure we'll have sadness; there's love and there's hatred! how much joy you gain from one person, you can have equal amount of sorrow from the same person.  it seems that the most secure thing to find out the balance point. but, where's the equilibrium? even if you found out that, the question is: will you be perfectly happy to stay at that point forever?

    None

    I had found an outdated SD card by Nikon which is 8MB (then you'll notice how "old" it is!) the other day.  As it is so old, i cant find any card reader that is capable to transmit the photos out from the card. When i feel that's a shame and nothing i can do, i realize that the  3 in 1 fax machine at home actually have a slot that can read the card! Hahaha......i finally have all the photos back! what a luck!

    know it or not?

    i had a drink with a friend i haven't seen for 2 years last night. he claimed that he is not a good guy and i do agreed with that but sure he is a funny guy. i guess he's can also be a good friend though i didn't know him very well. on the way he drove me home, i ask him if he's gonna re-open his "consultation letter box", he said i don't need it as i know what i want! haaa.....am i? is it becoz he didn't know me well, or just compare with my friend or maybe deep inside i did know? i do think my friend actually know what she wants but just a matter of choice.

    生活

    人大了, 顧慮自然多了。我是一個經常有少少衝動的人, 有時會有點意氣用事; 以前心口真係會掛個「勇」字, 可以因為份工悶, 冇prospect, 話唔做就唔做, 寧願搵份做到死又人工低的; 可以因為愛一個人而義無反顧, 千里迢迢, 唔理其他人怎想, 只想和他一起; 所有的事只從心出發, 想做就做。人大了, 只專注生活, 做事多了「三思而後行」, 反而變得猶豫, 漸漸忘記了這種由心的感覺, 缺少了以住那份勇氣, 開始怕麻煩, 怕面對改變, 怕要努力的轉工, 怕要用力的愛人。當以為生活就是這樣, 平平淡淡, 踏踏實實的時候, 總又覺得生命好像欠缺了什麼似的, 未能完整! 也許, 是時侯重新調較自己的生活, 重新拿出勇氣, to see if i can make my life complete and with no regrets!

    a drink

    there are two things that i haven't been doing for a long time and i did it in once this weekend! actually i haven't play badminton and go out for a drink with friends for a long time. this saturday, i did both! i first went back home for a shower and get change after badminton, then go out for a drink with friends! i'm so tired today but i did have a good time and met a few new friends last night. i found i did quite enjoying myself. so i guess i'll do it more often!

    break

    bb's health's not really good recently, i guess she has too much pressure, mainly for work and study. she really needs a break and relax. we have been talking the other day that we should move to somewherelse (uk's a good idea as some of her familt's there) together!  at the time being, maybe it's a good idea to plan for a trip like last time to prague. we did have a very good time but we missed the snow. so maybe this time, we'll have luck. Vienna is a good choice. that means i have to save $$$ very very hard this year lar!

    Body check (part 1)

    i am the kind of person who don't like (well, scare i think) to visit doctor, dentist etc.  but i do agree that a body check once a year is needed. dont know whether it is for fortunate or not, due to some health reason, the most difficult part of the body check will leave til maybe next week. so, i guess today won't be too hard at all. but don't know why my hands' shaking, not due to fear, just a bit dizzy and sharking. maybe lack of glucose? let's get something sweet now!

    Rainy day

    personally i don't like rainy day, i guess i hate it.  it can always gives you a bad mood! however, i do admire drizzle at spring time. it gives a blue but romantic feelings and reminds me the days at England.  i don't have much good and intense memory for rainy day.  except that i remember once, which happened ages ago at London.  I did have some childlike behavior: i treasure that little umbrella which bring back the good memory for quite a long time!

    Tributes

    When I am sharing the tributes with Adrian's friends and family, i have a sudden thought.  If one day i left this world, what will my friends going to share with others about my life in their tributes? I can think of nothing! I didn't have much achievement or did something that i can proud of myself! I am afraid that my friends and family will become speechless or very difficult to find something good of me to say in their tributes!
    I have contradiction thoughts after the funeral. As life is so fragile and short, full of uncertainties and out of our control, i should be tresure and satisfied what i have now and learn to know and find out the good things of the people around me? Or i should do whatever makes me happy and seems worth it?
     
     

    Funeral of Adrian

    I have attended my good friend's funeral last night at St. Andrew's church. He's smart, intelligence and young! He's one of a few good quality man I ever met. Sometimes when you meet someone, you will have the feeling that he will become an extraordinary man though you don't know what he can up to. This is the feeling he gave me when I first know him. When his friends and family giving the tributes, i knew that he really become one! It's so sad that such a kind, outstanding person need to leave us. His wife also gave a tribute, she shared with us all the bits and pieces of their life. They share so many common interest and give me such a warm and sweet feeling. When she reaffirm their marriage vow "from this day forward, for better, for worse, for rich, for poorer, for sickness and in health, until death do us part", tears welled up my eyes! They really did it! they keep the promise for each other!
     
    Adrian, you have fought your battle and finished your race, may you rest in peace, and see you later!
     
     
     

    In the memory of a good friend Adrian

    Merciful Father,
    hear our prayers and comfort us;
    renew our trust in your Son,
    whom you raised from the dead;
    strengthen our faith
    that Adrian who have died in the love of Christ
    will share in his resurrection;
    who lives and reigns with you,
    now and for ever.

    唔洗做

    雖然抗戰後討回自己應得的, 但其實很倦的, 真想不續約算吧, 反正前途一片黑暗! 如果以前我一定做o左, 而家要開飯嘛!
     
    如果現在有人對我說: 唔冼受氣, 唔好做嘞, 我養你!  嘩, 可能我即時lur 飯應呢! 不過可惜冇ㄚ, 唯有繼續捱囉!

    resistance against aggression

    i just finished my appraisal early this month and few days ago, we have been informed we need to do it again! it is not really a problem at first. but i found that my score's been downgraded for about 8% after the second appraisal without any reason! i'm so annoy by this and therefore go straight to my boss for an explanation. what he said was just the score can't be changed and he's using some sort of standard and can do nothing about it! as far as i know, my other colleagues also been downgraded but with a very smaller factor and this is just not fair!  i was now become the second lowest among all! especially compare with someone who have no output at all! after negotiation with him for yesterday afternoon and this morning, he promised to give all of us an "extra" 0.5 points just to let our average close to other teams! what a "merciful" boss! so, i guess i sort of retain what i deserve! but this kind of action really discourage us so much.

    男朋友

    朋友A說: "一個懂得氹你的男朋友, 不只會氹你一個, 一樣會氹到其他女仔。"  這是否真的是一條不變的定律? 我不知道。但可以肯定的是, 他們大多數喜歡且善於交際, 在朋友當中頗受歡迎, 而且又真的有不少女仔痴埋去的! 這個時代的女仔真厲害, 明知對方已經有固定的女朋友, 不但毫不掩飾自己對男方的興趣, 還不時send一些瞹昧的、令人有想像空間的sms給男方! 真的要說一句: 唔知搏乜!  其實女仔是一種很敏感的動物, 當另一個雌性動物對自己男朋友有興趣或有所企圖時, 更遲鈍的女仔一樣會感覺得到的。 於是乎, 經典的check男朋友手提電話的場面就出現嘞! 通常check完之後一定沉不住氣去質問男友, 跟住一定嗌交! 鬼咩,侵犯佢私穏喎!  最好笑也最令人激氣的是, 在這個時候男朋友的解釋都是千編一律(包括朋友A、B、C): "係咩? 我唔覺她對我有興趣喎! 我地係普通朋友咋, 無嘢架喎, 也一定唔會有嘢! 係你太敏感囉!"  唉! 都唔知係D男仔太天真或太看低D女仔的智商呢?  
     
    男人總認為女人小題大做, 女人應該要大方, 最好大方到將個男朋友送埋比人好唔好? 其實女仔係好需要安全感的, 冇一個希望自己男朋友常常惹埋D花花草草的, 搞到成日有威脅咁; 既然對D花花草草無嘢, 咁好心就唔好也無謂令到自己個女朋友唔開心啦!
     
    我對這項活動冇甚興趣, 希望將來不會成為她們的一份子啦!
