See Ya!

Treated my colleagues a dinner hot pot. All the oddness has been melted down to familiarity. Strange that I started to miss them... I did not miss my summer job colleagues though i had more fun with them.

Here is warm and close like a family, even they will not take care of each other, they will not set each other up. Everybody has their own position... peaceful and comfortable.

I have stood up already... I cannot sit down again... I have to walk out... whatever is awaiting, we are only few blocks away. See ya!

Perhaps Love

Listened to the whole soundtrack at HMV today. I guessed I stood there for a long time, people who wanted to listen lost patience and stood beside me, right beside me.

First Golfing Experience

A brief visit to Kai Tak Golf Centre, a remote area in the heart of city. It is designed for people with cars. So we head for Asia Golf Club @ Cheung Sha Wan.

You will have exciting sensation when you know you swing it right and hit the ball high & far. The instant video replay just made the game more interesting.

Thanks for bearing my stupid move. It is your sports... again.

Farewell

Farewell to my seaview

Insistence

When you feel you cannot speak something interesting, you are quiet; when you are able to buy yourself a house, but not the best one, you wait for better chance; when you can get married with someone whom you do not really love, you stay single; when you write a lousy email, rewrite till it displays taste.

I started to understand and appreciate the insistence of never settling for the less. Like 陶傑 says, "這不是扮嘢, 而是對品味的正常要求"

Resignation

I always think that during the last 2 weeks of a job, you will be relatively free, the main tasks are handover jobs only, but truth is the alternative.

I am taken out to see new clients, being assigned with new tasks and to clear up shity work. These are not what I expected to do when I am about to vanish from here in 2 weeks time.

Anyways, the work is hard, the body is tired, but the mind is free.

Pacific Coffee

Sitting in a large sofa with a cup of caramel latte, reading high end magazine and listening to light musics... these are standard actions for myself in Pacific Coffee. Strangely I do not feel foreign in that place, nor I feel like I am in a public coffee shop.

I imagine I am in my own place, curl up in a sofa, flipping through magazines... within the vicinity of the small desk and sofa... it is my home, my 'dreamed' home.

When can I have a real one?

Alone

I feel I am walking down the road on my own, alone, so alone.

Sweet Bed Time Story

Just heard a sweet bed time story, sweet in a sense that you know what you treasure. You can see beauty out of the ordinary and even the most annoying act.

It is easy to find an accompanion to share joy, but not pain. If you have found someone who are willing to share your suffering and endure it with you, congratulations.

What A Night...

Businesswomen, tough ladies, girls with strong personalities, they have one thing in common --- female. So they share the same natural instinct, raw desire, no matter how unapproachable they seemed. It is the same thing inside.

p.s. on my way home tonight, a hunched back middle aged woman came to me. she has uneven teeth, small eyes, dressed in dark red, small figure. she blocked my way, stared at me and whisper, "你唔洗驚呀... 我好肚餓, 可唔可以比二十蚊我食野...".

she uttered each word clearly, slowly and in the lightest way... as if she was a witch trying to hypnotise me. I gave her HKD20 and said 多謝... I felt cold sweat down my spine.

化蝶

Used to download the lyrics together with a song, and read it while playing the song. 化蝶 by 何韻詩 is on my play list all night.

Give some seconds and contemplate the phrase:
蝴蝶苦戀花那魂魄也願意

Can you feel the depth of it? How far can this go...

Chocolate Cube

I am supposed to be preparing for the exam next Monday. I watched TV, listened MP3, read books... I was being bombarded with more questions from myself again.

It proves again when I have excessive spare time, I think. The more thinkings I do, the more depressed I become. I know I am not an optimist, I go for the worst possible on the first go.

Sometimes having a low time is like treating yourself with a chocolate cube for the monotonous life.

Layman

Layman, what an appropriate word to describe my present attitude when compared with the past.

When a matter gains its importance, it comes with higher priority, higher expectation, more care and attention are also given. All these factors just paralyse your sensible thinkings and turn you into a sensitive layman.

This might not be 100% applicable to all, but it happens on me. So you have to be glad to find that you are / still are a layman, because you still care.

p.s. Acknowledgement to Mr. Ric for contribution of the word 'layman' and best wishes to his new adventure to the heaven.
