ladies power

last night i went to a japanese restaurant. it was crowded. but interestingly enough, the hall was filled with women. men were minority. so sisters were enjoying themselves and it is very hard not to accept the reality that women are outnumbering men. strange, indeed. i am not sure whether this sample can tell so much. Perhaps, men do not like japanese food. or men do not enjoy group activities. Or men are frighteded by the scene of ladies. no idea.

trip to sg

the group of sisters plan a trip to sg. there are two purposes to achieve. the first one is to get one of the sisters to see her 'email' friend'. second, we want to go for a vacation and enjoy ourselves.
but the most 'crucial' sister told us that she could not go. that's a real pity. anyway, think of sth else, maybe wgo to macau for a short trip will also be fine.

eat, drink and be merry

i have an old friend. we knew each other for almost 20 years. this is a good reason to eat and drink merrily. we had a good feast of japanese cusinie. everything was wonderful.

clean up

most tasks have been done. i spent tonite to clean the piles.
my desk and room become larger after I have cleaned the documents, files and books.
so making a room of one's own is quite easy. just throw away stuffs that you don't need. that's it.

new projects will come very soon.
another pile and mountain will accumulate very soon.

Sun flower in SOHO 

sun flower in the city

The sunflower does not speak much on a gloomy day.
It keeps its head down.
Once its friend, the Sun, is around, it will lift its head again.

what i have

In the past few weeks,
I have met many friends, both new and old.
I have certain kinds of special feelings but difficult to name it.
Many've married.
Many got or begot children.
Some left their jobs and went further studies.
Some will change their jobs.
Some start a new life.

I have none of the above.

I did look very much towards changes and new things in life.
But I could have missed what I had.

I have a mother.
I have a father.
I have a brother.
I have lots of old and good friends.
I have a not very healthy lifestyle.
I have an EOS.
I have a notebook and a "slow" cable.
I am not surrounded by people that I don't like.
I have mood swings all the time.

These are my most unique things and ppl.

Hectic week

I had a very packed and hectic week.
Last Friday I had a reunion with two old friends. We had a huge hot pot. Full and happy. Then we made an apple crumple. not bad at all.
We went to Tai Mo Shan's famous restaurant to have a morning tea. It rain heavily. The taxi driver did not know where it was. But anyway, we managed to get there.
We had traditrional dim sums. Not very special. It had a very srrong sense of community.
I like it anyway.

Then I travelled all the way from TW to KT, to another end of the MTR line. I had my private tutorial with the lazy boy. I think he is trying not to be lazy anymore. But he seems to lack a storng foundation and determination to work on his studies. However, these are the things that cannot be accomplished in one day.

After the class, i travelled back to a friend's new home for house warming. I returned to TW again. Return to the starting point. Just two blocks aways from my "morning" friend's place.
So this is life, it goes round and round.

Hana & Iris

I met a long lost ballet dance partner this afternoon.
At the washroom, the place of reunion was quite unconventional.
I was at the queue.
She recognised me first.
But sure I remembered her immediately.
We had not communicated for a long time.
She carried two kids with her. Her kids got her big eyes.
The meeting was very short, she had to run.
I had to queue.

Winning K Song

Finally, we come up with the most favourite K song of the Super sisters.
"chi ching zi dai shing chui yick" is the finalist. So the sisters will have to sing it whenever we go for K. The first runner up is Lisa Wong’s “Hot Coffee”. I love “Hot Coffee” more than the winning song.

K nite

Last night I went for a karaoke with the sisters. Our room was decorated with MM’s 15R photo. So it made the theme of the K nite.
I used to distance myself from Karaoke, but in recent years, I don’t mind going. Especially I don’t like going with ppl who are generation conscious. The songs that you choose will date you. But I do think I am the one who name or date the songs.

Simply because singing is less than a performance, it should bring ppl fun and joy. It was fun to choose the right songs for the group and I felt happy when ppl got their right songs. Also, I found so many funny “Oldies” and I liked them all. I like Lisa’s Hot Coffee most.

The sisters also did a good job. Three cheers to the sisters!

football match

i went to several football matches before. But today's match was quite different.
Today i went to an amauter match this afternoon. It was pretty unconventional.
It was a hot day, it did not discourage ppl's enthusiasm.

All the ppl, including the spectators, were pretty serious about the match. They cheered and greeted the players, no matter it was good or bad.

My bro was the gatekeeper. He was well-equipped with protection gears and stuffs (compared to the gatekeeper on the other side.) It was quite astonished to find out that my bro could stretch and jump. Even catch the ball with Ballerina steps. Amazing.

I borrow my 100-300 lens to my pal who brought a new Canon 300D. Of course, they both performed well. The quality was very good also.

But I still hang on to my EOS 50 with eye control. I am an old fashion person, I prefer sth visible than sth invisible. The feeling of not being unable to see the picture instantly cannot be replaced by digital cameras.

However the result often lets me down.

i hate deadlines

i hate deadlines. especially i am "ordered" to complete them when I was not told to do so. SO I was accused of poor chinese standard, poor working attitude, poor editing work. The requirements change all the time. I don't mind following changing instructions, it is just... never accuses me for making it wrong, or fail to achieve the tasks. Perhaps, I should eat it and do it. But it is not a pleasure at all to feed all these to myself.

This is the poor fate of a SOHO and poor worker.
My language is not up to standard.
My editing work really sucks.
Even the problem of having bugs in the program will count me in. (However, i did not nothing about the programming.)
OK OK I am following. All my fault.
My fault of not being study hard enough in secondary school,
My fault of achieving a marginal pass in HKCEE & AL,
My fault of making a wrong uni choice,
My fault of giving up BBA, for Humanities,
My fault of not being pretty enough,
My fault of being a self-made monster,
My fault of sticking to my family,
My fault of giving a share of my salary to the family,
My fault of without establishing a career of my own,
My fault of not voicing myself,
Without these faults, I will not be me.
So this is me.

another day

just completed two deadlines. But there are still many ahead. It has always been a long way to go. Due dates will come and go. I can think of nothing but sleeping. It is very handy to have my notebk connected to the Internet. Whao~

exam paper

i am marking machine. i have just finished marking all the papers. makring exam is better than essay or term paper because i don't have to write comments. i don't like writing comments. esp to those who will not read them.

so i have to move on to the next task.

five hours

i only slept five hours. it's good that i can still walk around. there are still lots of work to do. Sigh~

Queen of Sei Lo Buster

recently i met a "sei lo buster". she finds that there are too many sei lo in this world. her mission is to identify these sei lo. and scold them "CHING SEI LO!!!" , hurt them mentally or abuse them physically and then disappear immediately.

i like her job.

Hail to the Queen of Sei Lo Buster!!!

Unfortunately, she hurt herself yesterday in a combat against a very nasty sei lo in her office. i wish her well.

illegal worker

feel very tired. i woke up at 6:30 this morning. when i just woke up, i did not realise this is the day of work. just wanted to stay in bed for a while. i thought it was 6:30 in the evening.

so i dragged myself to work.

i didn't care whether this person would arrive promptly as they should be. it is just i need to have my tasks completed.

so it is all over. i was not sure whether i did it ok. but at least, i had one task finished.

it is quite strange to work but as a volunteer! my contract will be effective three days later.
