my weekend in busan

It was a rushed week for me last week and i didnt have time to make decide where i wanted to go for weekend..i had seoul in mind, but i hardly had time to do reasearch (mayb that was just a excuse to be lazy :p)....it seems that time difference makes a lot of difference..eventhough korea is only one hr ahead, i always felt like i didnt have enough time...instead of 钱不够用 (money not enough),me is 时间不够用(time not enough)..oh, come to think of it, i think this is linked...money = time, time = money...hehehe...anyway, my colleagues decided to go to busan for the weekend on wednesday, so i decided to tag along...they asked me to book hotel online as there are promotions..i logged in the web, took a look and couldnt make up my mind..there were alot of options, like 3 single beds, 1 double bed + 1 single bed, 1 double bed and 1 double bed with free internet and free breakfast....i thought, na, i could do it tomorrow...so the next day, when i tried to book the one with the best deal (ie the one with freebies), it was all sold out...so i wonder again...as usual...after half hr, i logged in again and even the double bed + 1 single deal was gone....i ended up booking a room with THREE single beds!!!! i was teased by my colleagues...i know...it was not wise..but i believe in 傻人有傻福...coz out of 5 of my colleagues, my room is the only one with the best view.... ^^

but it's still funny to have two other beds i don't use..wish somebody could take advantage :)

Sunday morning

It was a sunday morning after whole night of rain...ah fai and i decided to visit the flower mkt....it was still a bit drizzling when i went out to meet ah fai...we had brunch at nearby coffee shopt (AKA kopitiam)....after a simple bfast, we went to the streetful of florists...it was so nice to walk on this street...with the breeze blowing on my face, and the flowers on both sides...i felt like i was not in HK...suddenly, i have this thought....i wanna buy cut flowers every week, decorate them and put them at home..don't you just love to see flowers at home? isn't it cozy? imagine you waking up and smell the fragrance of the flowers...aahhh..life is wonderful...hahaha..but i was just using my imagination...don't think i have the ability to have this kind of life..hahaha...share some pics with you...you may feel how i felt this morning

GUILT

i did something i considered not so nice last friday night....it was the last day in my office before i go on a long trip, so i decided to clear some work and do some personal chores before i leave...so i worked a bit, and made some credit card payments online...and i realised my monthly internet fee (which is using monthly auto-pay...i hate using credit card auto-pay coz i always get charged extra without knowing why) was more than my contracted price....so i called up the internet company....and the person, called MENCIUS SIU, picked up the phone...and i told him the reasons i called...he said the extra charge was charged to be because their request for charging me on my credit card was rejected by the cr card company so they passed on the charge to me...i said, that's not appropriate, i shouldnt be the one bearing the cost..he said it's my credit card and i should ensure the card works..then i said how do i know if my card doesnt work if nobody tells me and the strange thing is, i never exceeded my limit and other auto pay can go thru, mayb problem is not me? i kept saying i don wanna bear the charge and the guy kept telling me that it's my fault and i should check with the bank...this is the WEIRDEST comment i have ever heard....so i got mad and started arguing with him and the guy got really rude as well and we started yelling at each other..for the longest 15 to 20 mins...we just yelled until there was no solution...i asked him wat kind of customer service is this? and i said he's rude...then guess what he said? he said he doesnt think he is rude...hahaha..wtf....he doesnt think he's rude and he doesnt think it's their fault...what's the point of talking to a person who cant listen? knowing this would not go anywhere, i told him i didnt wanna talk to him anymore as there will not be any conclusion...oh, and one moment i told him that i wanted to speak to his supervisor, he, as a customer service personnel told me that he has no supervisor...he is the supervisor....WHAT the? anyway, i got off the phone and dialed in again..and guess what? HE PICKED UP AGAIN....
anyway, my point is not how rude he was...my point was i felt like a dumb dumb for being so MAD...a lot of my blood cells died as a result..and just for HKD60...to me, it's not the money that matters, it's the principle......sigh....let's pay attention to our temper more in the future..it's really not worth

HEAL the world

it made me soOOOoooo MAD today!!!!! what's wrong with this community? what's wrong with people? what's wrong with the world????? are we becoming monsters? monsters without blood and feeling and sympathy???? i really feel like taking a tour in people's brain to try to understand what the H*LL is going on!!!! i have been observing this for months and it's getting on my nerve!!! let me tell you what is wrong with me!!! i have been taking train to work ever since i first arrived HK....it wasnt that obvious to me coz i never get a chance to sit down...now that i've moved, i take train to work everymorning...the good thing is, i always get a seat coz it's the first station....this is where the problem is, when i'm sitting down, i try to give my seats to the elderly people or to the pregnant ladies....sometimes it is annoying to give them seats coz they will go "no no no no no" just to be polite and you have to insist and go "no worries, it's ok, pls take it"...and some elderly just take it and let their grandchild sits on it...DUH~~~anyway, i have been noticing people, even an OLD man standing in front of them..it's darn obvious that he needs to sit down...he has weak legs, he has a EAR plug, he carries a lot of things and what's even more obvious? He's VERY OLD....out of courtesy and sympathy, i would just stand up and pass him my seat even though i might have a lot of things to carry myself...put urself in his shoe, if you are old, half crippled, with lots of stuff on you, would you want to sit down? H*LL YA, i wanna sit down!!! BUT NOBODY GIVE A DAMN!!! and one lady even pretend to not see him???!!! honestly, steam is accumulated inside...i just feel like grabbing the lady in the head and slap her until she forgets her name...and the misters close to her, they don't get away as well...they are just inconsiderate, insensitive, unsympathetic and !@#$%^&*(.....

don't they learn moral? or moral is just for them to score??????? Sigh....i can forsee that when i'm old, i better take a stool of my own out.... :( this is a sad sight...i cant change others, i can only do my part :(
