生活智慧 2

my parents visited me a few weeks ago...i have to say, we all really had fun and really spent many quality days together...we celebrated my dad's birthday at an expensive restaurant which my sis paid for \(^^)/...they gave my dad many birthday peach (寿桃）...when we came out, there were puppies (狗仔队) waiting outside to shoot some movie stars....I could see and feel how happy my parents were ^^ i think they are happy because of the following reasons:

1. seeing each other (FYI, my mum flew from perth and my dad from Kuching to HK)
2. seeing my sis who flew from paris
3. seeing me who live in HK
4. less worry...i think one way for making them less worry is to let them see how well you are living and how good you are taking care of yourself....i have to say, during this trip, i felt that i have grown...taking care of my parents is the FIRST priority and they are happy to be taken care of.....

took them to a few places to play....and from this trip, i also learned many things from my parents...one of them is 生活智慧...saw how my dad protect his toothbrush...instead of using a cup holder to hold his toothbrush and preventing his toothbrush from being squashed in his bag, lookit what my dad did...very clever and traditional...hahaha...pls see below~~

HIP's BS secret

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

Photo session

Some tips for photo poses...i know it's always hard when it comes to what pose you wanna show in your pics...you may want it to be sexy, pretty, cute or pretty......funny...haha, here are some tips from doc jane....during easter, we did some experiment on how to make wonderful poses in your pics to capture the most memorable moment of your trip...note: no animal was harm during this experiment :p we sacrificed our "image" in the busy street of TST to help with the shooter and the shootee, the traveller and the travellee....how nice could we be? ok guys, here are some of the tips:

TADA

Jude and jenn - try to be creative in their poses..but how come judy looked like she just finished her arm pit shaving ><...jenn looked like she has a headache...haha

me and jude...judy looked sexy~~~yup, this is the correct way of showing your emotioOOons....feeling sexy in and out...and me? hmmm, i looked like i have a back pain...haha...

Heng - acting cute....i think he would look more adorable without the pai kia glasses (translation: 古惑仔的黑超)

PHOTO OF THE YEAR - i looked through all the photos taken...heng's typical expression is....expressionLESS....i think he was too tired after his LONG walk everyday...this is by all mean, the best pic we have taken....sexy (with his big butt facing us - the nice focus; with his head looking at the great view of HK - looking natural; resting on the rail - to relax his exhausted body and recharged...the BEST? the unknown legs sticking out from nowhere!!! hahahah....)

SUPERLICIOUS

Suddenly thought of an idea.....i always LOVE mcD...even back in M'sia, sometimes i had craving for McD and we would just go and have McD for lunch despite how delicious other food are in Kuching~~~Around the world, McD custom-make a lot of flavours to suit the taste of local ppl...in korea, they have kimchi burger, in Malaysia, we have Satay burger (wonder when curry burger could be available or should it belong to India? :p), in Japan, they have terriyaki burger...that's when i decide to have McD burgers whenever i go to a new country...^^ good idea? YES!!!

I wanted to start this "adventure" the last time i was in Japan....but because there were too many temptations (imagine the really really fresh sashimi, sushi, beef, bbq etc etc) that i didnt really leave myself a chance to enjoy the local flavoured burger...until the very very last day before i was due for airport bus....during the last 10 mins, i ran all the way from my hotel to the nearest McD...all the names in the menu are in Japanese...luckily i could read most of them...so i quickly ordered TWO terriyaki beef burgers and at the last minute, i decided to throw in a Katsu Pork burger (Japanese fried pork burger with cheese)...and i ran back to the hotel...phew...i was in time...i proudly told my colleagues that finally, i got the terriyaki burgers we were always talking abt...then my colleague was a bit puzzled..coz he thought it is only served after 8pm...i got a bit worried...so i checked..Oh MY Oh My...instead of getting two terriyaki burgers, i got TWO BIG MACs instead...crap...

luckily i had this to compensate..it was SUPERLICIOUS ^^ SLUuuuRPpppppp

thoughtful Japan

Having been in Japan for so long..i found that they are quite considerate...and sometimes too thoughtful that it seems so unnecessary...there was one day when i was walking to office, i noticed that there were a lot of metal drain bar protectors on the ground...hhmm..not sure how to call it...anyway, the protectors have holes in between of each bar and someone thoughtfully put rubber caps on the holes so that ladies with high heels would not be stucked, or coins will not be dropped into the drain etc etc etc....didnt take a picture of that thing...SAYANG...anyway, i have something more interesting to share...this normal looking thing is found in toilet...and it has a speaker if u look at it closely...oh well, the first time when i was there, i read the Kanji (ie the chinese characters) on the notice...it sounds like bla bla bla save water bla bla bla..so i thought, oh, you can save water by pressing on it...and what is weird is that it makes a lot of noise...i heard a lot of ladies pressing it, so i just followed...and it says, it will just take 12 seconds...so my steps go like this...first, i enter the cubicle, close the door, do my business and then press the button...when the sound finishes in 12 secs, i flush and leave....so this has been going on for 6 freaking weeks until the 2nd time when i visit....

I was chatting w my japanese colleague about how unncessary some of the things in japan are...and he agreed w me...then suddenly, i thought of asking him abt the thing...so i did...he told me that actually in Japan, a lot of ladies don't like other people to hear the sound of "water" when they relieve themselves, that's why the incredibly intelligent japanese develop the device to try to cover the NOISE...which also means tat i have always done it wrong coz i only pressed after or during my business....WALIAO WEI...i just couldnt believe it....u rather hear bbzzzzzzz than the water sound? what are they thinking? ok, don't laugh at me...u try reading the sign and see if you could really figure out tat this is the main purpose...hehehe :)

kimchi

I have a partime job these days....i always carry my digital camera with me....money well spent, i have fully utilised it...hehe and i love my camera..without it, i would have lost alot of memories and wouldnt be able to share my joy and experience with my friends :) *applaud to my Fujifilm digital camera* (^^)p

In korea, ppl don say CHEEESSSEEEEEeeeee~~ they say KIMCHI instead...this is the effect of saying Kimchi while the photo is taken....i said KIMCHI but my sis said "bler" instead...hahahah
