RIP MJ

Why is it that people only start feeling sad when they lose something / someone? why people only look at the good and forget the bad in things / someone only after they lose it? why only people know how they should have cherished something / someone only when it's already too late? why? human are hard to understand and i'm sure it's hard for human to understand the reasons~~~

Like the usual, woke up early and went to work yesterday and was told that michael jackson passed away...i had to say...i was very very SHOCKED and had a short period of sense of lose!! i wasnt a big fan of his, i carried on with my life not caring what MJ did in his world...he was just another human being to me...but somehow, knowing that i would never be able to know he was on this earth again made me feeling like i've lost something / someone i knew....it was really sad....was on the train watching the news of how many ppl were sadden / shocked/ depressed by the news...and how people remembered his work, his talent and his life....what-a-life MJ had lived...full of sweetness and bitterness....

because of his passing, i realized life is short, people are forgetful, people take things for granted....and at that moment, i felt that i must cherish my family and friends more and felt lucky for having them still around me....

Hey, i'm disappointed to find out that most of you think it's the FOOD!!! IT'S NOT THE FOOD!!! it's the KITTY~~~ it's a very famous kitty in taiwan these days...they even set up a website for him (which i thoughtfully included in my links list)...she's my new idol now~~~~love it love it...so cute~~~ P/S: Jenn said she didnt understand my post...and she said if she doesnt understand, so would everyone out there...let me explain...see the kitty in the beginning of the ad? that's the kitty i'm in love with now...and so as alot of ppl out there..so her owner made her a website which is now linked to my blog...on your left hand side..called meow meow site....hopefully it's clearer.... :)

Eye pollution

Hong kong is famous for air pollution (for those of u who have been here before, you know how the sky looks like and how the air "taste" like...) and noise pollution (cling cling clang clang, that's the noise you keep hearing in restaurants, and of coz loud people everywhere)...after x yrs in hk, i found another type of pollution in HK...you may wonder what it is...it's eye pollution~~~ hehe...been taking MTR all along, walking around HK for long long time and i guess mayb it's because of the LOooooong subway rides these days for me, i noticed more things occuring in the train.....everywhere you go in hk, you will see alot of young couple (be it the conventional type of couple or the generation x type of couple), they are quite "loving"....i guess HK is small and ppl are just comfortable with it or they just dont care what ppl think or see.....loving couple is good, they hold hands (normal), they hold waist or shoulder (normal), when they started to hug each other while taking subway or elevator (well, started to get a bit less normal but still acceptable), they then proceed to wrapping in each other's embraces in the public (ahem...a bit too much, they get some stares but quickly forget)....when they started kissing each other (hhmmm, okla...sometimes ppl are just affectionate)...but when they started to lick each other's ear lopes??? NOOooo, it's getting too much!!!!! yup, what i just described are common in hk except for the last one....today, i was taking subway and saw a couple walking in...two teenagers looking like they just started secondary school not long ago....first, they wrapped each other like they were being super-glued together...then after a while, they both sat down and the gal started to lick the guy's ear....OMG OMG...luckily the guy had a bag on his lap...then the guy returned a kiss on the ear...and the little girl did it again....ppl were watching them but they didnt seem to notice....time to get a room, man....they didnt know they were putting on free show for the public....you may wonder why i put the pic below...it's salty wet kinda of scene (AKA 咸湿)

Unusual Friday night

Friday night usually means:
  • party~~~
  • meeting up with friends for dinner, drinks and gossip
  • laze at home and just not do anything
  • late nights - doing anything and everything except for work....

but tonight, my friday night is none of the above....i'm now sitting in front of my work desk, waiting for a conference call :( HOW SAD IS THAT??? i just rushed back from shenzhen, went back home, took a shower and came to office....well, i came early coz i didnt want to rush here and there....so just had my starbucks sandwich in front of my best friend called Dell...hey, where's chip? hehehe...anyway, i was "invited" by my boss to attend this conference with the company's CFO, other big shots to talk about our work...when he invited me last night, i tried to make excuses for not attending...all he said was: attend if you could. if not, no problem....but that means a lot of things...either way, i will lose out....my analysis below:

  • if i don't attend -> he will think i'm not helpful or reliable...there must be reasons for him to invite me (and i know the reasons!!!)...if he screws up, he blames me for not being there to help out....
  • if i attend -> two outcomes: 1) if i screw up, at least he is safe...2) if nothing happens, i'm safe....

Either ways -> i'm the one who lose out if things don't happen favourably....so i chose to bet on my future....

Life's journey

Have you ever stopped and think: gosh, time flies and it's already half way through the year...and what had i done in the past 6 months? well, i suddenly did...and reminiscing now about the journy....somehow, i think i had some very fruitful improvements :)
  • i've become more independent than i used to be (mayb not a lot but slightly better than 6 mths ago)
  • i've found a port for myself to park my boats of emotions...
  • i've put more time and love on my family and other love ones
  • i've learned to say "NO"
  • i've found good people whom i didnt think exist before....i really feel grateful

ah well, i cant really think of a full list....but hopefully, this post will get you to think about your own journey and pace...slowdown and smell the flowers....

情绪

Do you have this feeling?

sometimes when you are in good mood, you don't mind spending longer time trying to make yourself looking prettier :) you feel happy putting on a nice outfit, doing your hair just a bit differently than what you normally do, putting on some nice accessories and also a little bit more make up and Wa la, you feel even better....

BUT, sometimes when you feel sh*t, even though you have plenty of time, you just don't feel like doing anything at all...find a outfit which you could wear (which may just be convenient for you and may not look good or may look good but because you feel sh*tty, you just feel that it doesnt look good on u)....you feel lazy to dress up yourself, a pair of heel-less shoes will do, less make up and let your hair takes its own lead and there, you feel not so extraordinary....

Had jenn's blog open while her super nice music was playing while reading another blog....even a place which i didnt like as much before when i was in high school, the photos just made me wanna go back there and also made me wanna make myself feel good inside out...i didnt know a place i despised so much could be sooooo beautiful...how could i overlook such beauty? how could i just turn everything so beautiful and good into something so bad and ugly? thanks for the blog, now i realised, life in hk is .....i guess everything has its pros and cons....now i also realised that feeling of hatred could lead to many bias outcome.....

lesson learned: one must learn to "throw away" the feeling of hatred & love in order to see things more clearly.

HIP's BS secret

To answer Jenn's question about how HIP could BS with his pants on....this is the secret...

my DULL life

it's so frustrating sometimes...and i'm beginning to find my job hateful now....despite of all the travelling which i enjoyed, but now, i'm getting annoyed....these days, i hardly have time for doing my personal things...i'm always rushing from one conference to another...call after call after call after call...im really getting tired of it...it's either very early or late at night..but mostly late at night for me...sigh...i felt like i'm talking to my boss and my colleagues more than my own family and friends...and it's just not the kind of life i enjoy now....but looking at the bright side..maybe i should also just feel lucky for having a job to be busy with...a lot of people out there are still jobless or some are at risk...at this thought, i feel much better...... :)

Ban sai with style

the picture says it all~~~~~~~~
BS with style = in public, without shame and pressure, with a smile, in good location (in this case...multibillion stone-pathed pedestrian)...and of coz with cool pose....

我的战利品 - to be continued

went back to korea...didnt go back to Busan but went to seoul for the weekend....i'm pretty happy with my achievement over the weekend....everything became quite cheap in korea because of the weak won...YAHOO for that!!!! i remember a yr++ ago when i went, i seemed to not able to afford most of the things here..even a ramen cost a fortune...thanks to the economic crisis for making a happy person this time...well..actually most of the things are FOC...freebies from shops...i love korean shops for they are quite generous for giving out freebies~~~~they really know how to capture women's hearts...guys...im giving you tips here for free~~~ >< one night i was walking in and out of shops with my colleague to just collect freebies...yeah, i know...we are cheap..but who are not????!!!

Of coz, i didnt only buy for myself...i shared my happiness with my family too....here's a bag i got for my dear mummy...it's a leather bag...since she got robbed last year and lost her newly purchased leather bag in melbourne...i wanted to give her something to cheer her up....and of coz i got shirts for jenn too...i'm just a good daughter and sister *BLUSH*

fake birthday

was in korea for last two weeks....we were actually at the 3rd largest city in korea...somehow, the place we were at were quite boring....actually, we just found out after 4 - 6 weeks there that it was not so small afterall...it was because we were being put at a hotel that was quite far from the city and we didnt bother to explore coz we all assumed that the place was not that big..how wrong were we...anyway, to entertain ourselves, we went to TGIF (AKA thank god it's friday) one night after dinner...TGIF is a chain western restaurant.....well, korea is famous for kimchi (DUH), and korean bbq (YAY)...the only thing abt it is that most restaurants in korea are quite specialised...they only sell one thing at a time...so if u go to a beef bbq, u only get beef, if u go to seafood restaurant, they only serve seafood...but most koreans love beef..naturally most bbq restaurants serve only beef...so since i give up on beef already, everytime we visited korean bbq, i found myself eating only the side dishes with rice....why? u may ask...hehehe..let me tell u the reasons (in indian ascent)....because we had around 13 ppl there...except for another gal who doesnt eat beef coz of religion, the rest love beef more than anything...and we didnt want to make everyone sacrificed just because two ppl don't eat beef....so two of us usually just attacked the side dishes.....anyway, after so many sacrifices, both of us were craving for real food so one day after dinner, we went to TGIF for dessert....yum...since we were all so bored in that place...an idea came to me...i saw so many ppl celebrating bdays...and TGIF had this special team singing bday song.....to spice up our lives, an idea came to me...since everyone's bday was not around the corner, but we didnt have to have bday in order to celebrate..so we told the waiters that it was our colleague's bday that day...oh..the singing band came and gave him a bday hat...it was cute..and they started singing and we started playing...it was fun~~~~but my colleague was guilty coz he lied to them (BTW, his bday wont be here until november) hehehehe...here are some pics to share~~~~Happy bday M!!!!!!!
