Pain of moving~~

I don like moving.....to me moving means the following:
  • Trouble of looking and deciding where to move to (ie those that I have encountered during my pre-moving time @_@)
  • Packing => seems like a never ending task....
  • Clearing and cleaning old apartment in order to return the apartment to my landlord in good condition...ahem ahem, tat's because im a good and responsible tenant ;p
  • the MOST troublesome => changing correspondence address :(( => the problem i have now is my rent is finishing on 22/1/2007 and I can only move in after I return from my assignment, ie in mid february. i don want strangers getting my credit card bills and my bank correspondence...i don wanna get unknown charges~~~ I borrowed someone's address but tat means, in one mths time, i have to go thru the same pain & trouble again..sigh~~~ oh, i have to pay extra HK$300 to switch my broadband service from my old apartment to my new apartment....so much cost involved just to save HK$2,400 per mth...hhmmm..come to thnk of it, it's kinda worth it...hahahaha...

my PooOOOoor foot

Woke up early as usual today....i haven't adjusted my brain yet and woke up at the usual working day time....I'm not working today~~~ Yeah yeah, but i will be starting my new job next monday :(( Since I woke up so early today, I might as well fully utilise my time...PACKING~~again..seems like a never ending task...hopefully it will be over soon....while i was packing my things into boxes of stuff, my floor was full of junks, rubbish and the likes...as busy as a bee...As I was concentrating on my chores, i stepped on a black paper clip...HARD and i hurt my foot...it's still bleeding :( my poor foot...how am i gonna walk~~~ I am limping, trying to finish my things...after xxx hours and hard work, i'm proud to say that I have finished 90% of my packing...where's the remaining 10%? the remaining 10% represents the things i use on my day-to-day requirement...such as shampoos, mousse, my computer, stereo, speakers and shoes.... One box + one luggage in April 2005 turned into this (pls see below) And here are the pics of my poooOOOoor foot (My foot with temporary "plaster" made by my own two hands...i like DIY stuff..hehehe) (This is the Culprit !!! >:( )

小肥羊

Went to 小肥羊("Little Fat Lamb") for steamboat with some friends in Mongkok just now...it was pretty good...had ying and yang soup base and with alot of yummy food to dip in...yum yum....it was a pretty good meal and business there was really really good...we spent most of our time talking abt finance, shares, property, accounting and how to make money..小肥羊is a chain restaurant in HK and around China and you can also find imitation in China called 小肥牛("Little Fat Cow"). My friend suggested me to open up another restaurant called 小肥猪("Little Fat Piggie")。 哈哈哈,好好笑。大肥猪("Big Fat Piggie") is a better name for it...hiak hiak hiak.. The whole meal cost us a fortune...but we all enjoyed it. Now i smell like 麻辣火锅 。 According to my friend, im now officially known as "辣"妹 (Spice girl) :p

~JINXED~~ @_@

Friday the thirteen is known as black friday...but for a day to be DARK, it doesnt have to be friday & falls on 13th!!! Let me tell you why....Yday is supposed to be a HAPPY day because it's the day i finally sign my rental contract, after weeks of searching. But the so called happy day turned into a nightmare when: 1. the landlord suddenly threw tantrum at the property agent, saying that in his XXX yrs in business, he has never signed a single rental contract!!! He scolded for >10 mins and I have decided not to rent from him. His middle name is TROUBLE. 2. My motorala E1000 got stolen while I was having my breakfast. Guess I was too occupied with my apartment problem. Some ppl just 趁火打劫。I asked my friend to call my phone just after 2 mins, it had been switched off => Confirmed stolen....As per my Ex-colleague, 偷掉我电话的人,手烂掉!!! How cruel~~i mean the culprit :p 3. Now, me = apartment problem + phone problem. Have to get a phone ASAP...more thinking has to be done. 4. The property agent kept bugging me with other apartments that are out of my budgets. She even introduced me to an apartment with indecent businesses going on at night!!! Later, she told me to wait for another day as there will be a "nice" apartment. I asked her to stop bugging me coz I don't wanna drag it anymore. just want to get it over and done with. 5. After i rejected her, i called another person wanting to rent the apartment i saw the day before...after just less than 24 hours, the apartment has been rented out. I almost burst into tears in the middle of the Mongkok street...After what i have been thru :( 6. After getting a new phone in Mongkok (now me = Apartment problem - phone problem), went bek to TST to look for another apartment. Got fed up and rented a place without looking and placed my HK$1,000 deposit. Done. Case closed. Move in in Feb!! New Problem: Where to put my things after 21/1/2007????? SIGGGGGHHHhhh..ENDLESS problem!!!
