Still support Liu Xiang!!!!

Liu Xiang unfortunately had to pull out from the race due to injury. I was disappointed cause had been waiting for 4 years to watch this race (well, today's just qualifying but still...). I feel upset just WAITING for 4 years so there's no way I can understand how disappointed he is to not even able to run in qualifying after training and competiting so hard for 4 years.

Don't give up!!!! I super support!

My so-called life

2008-05-25T14:03:00.002+08:00

Lately, I've been spending some time watching an old TV-series call "My so-called life". I remember seeing it back when I was in High School. It was like so related back then. I wonder how relevant it is now to the current hig schoolers. For one thing, I know that asking quarter for phone call is not gonna happen in this day of age.

要作者 • Writers needed

2008-05-19T21:37:00.004+08:00

Well, actually anyone who wanted to write. I'm trying to do a project of combining random stories in a print form for public to see. I still need to work out a cost and hopefully I will have enough to do it. ^_^

Things had been pretty normal (I don't mind) now a day, so I can start working on this project and make myself proud. If you have anything (around 500-1200 words) that you don't mind sharing to random people for free, please send them to me! In this digital age, I feel that print is underrated a little. hehehe. But don't get me wrong. I love digital stuffs also.

Just go to my profile and contact me via the "Email". Thanks~

Kelly Chan in Hong Kong's Torch relay

Kelly Chan in Hong Kong's Torch relay

There are many many negative news about this Olympics, and my view maybe different than others. I enjoyed the Olympics ever since I'm a kid because of good sportmanships, people's goals being reach through hard works, and showcasing what human can do.

I support Beijing's Olympics. ^_^

Just saw this documentary. I know that the US don't have an universal health care but it seems very scary when I'm was watching it. It just like even for people with health plan, there are still no service. So why need a health plan anyway? But I always find insurance companies evil. It seems that everything is covered until you need to ask the insurance company to pay for things. Then everything is not covered...

To be honest though, our house was robbed once, and we sort of get something back from the insurance company. I think like 30% of what we lost? Anyway, I highly recommend people to watch this. But take it with a grain of salt though. When watching these sort of film/news, I feel that they never really tell you the whole picture. There's always a little propaganda and their own view.

風與生命 : Typhoon and life

2008-04-21T21:35:00.005+08:00

Many things come by so fast all of a sudden. It's things that I can't really control and thinking/worrying about it won't do any good. So I just try to ignore them, but it's very hard to do. Now they are passed and we hope it won't come back EVER.

It's sort of like a typhoon, so rough and comes in really fast and even though you are prepared for it, you really don't know how it will be when the storm hits. Well, we made by untouched and relieved. And it just like a typhoon, after it's gone, comes the most beautiful day. And I'm living under that day now.

用心聽：Yelle — Pop-up

2008-04-12T22:35:00.004+08:00

Haven't done a music topic for awhile mainly because after Amy Winehouse, I haven't really touch on anyone that's make me really excited. (I don't much about music but I know what makes me happy :-D kekeke). I like Adele's "Chasing pavement" which's lyric is awesome and also Gary Jules's "Mad world" which I saw in Youtube with that kiwi dying for his dream. Sad but bring a positive message.

Then, there's Yelle. I have no idea who she is. But the song "Je veux te voir" (My sight on you) I think... my french are so limited. =_= THIS SONG IS NOW EMBEDDED INTO MY MIND!!! It has this 80s feel to it and she sort of talk in her singing. Then I went on Youtube to see if there are a video for it. And now, the video is in my mind too. She is so 80s, and it's so cool! I'm now waiting for this CD to arrive from amazon.

I think 80s is really making a come back. I think I need to look for more 80 feel clothings.

Click the title to Yelle's offical site and the youtube link is here:

*Je veux te voir actually means "I want to see you" SEE, my french suck...

點解會咁？(Why it's like this?)

2008-04-08T22:04:00.004+08:00

There's this negative karma energy going on currently. It's like putting people against each other in order to achieve a goal. I wouldn't call it back stabbing but it's not that much better. It's more like lies and make up stuffs and actually believing it to be true by some people.

Ego is such a scary thing. People die defending it. They just couldn't take the fact that sometime they could be wrong and changes are actually good. "You can't really stay inside your comfort zone forever". I actually got this saying from the person that is not leaving his comfort zone now. He always needed to go back to something he knows and won't accept the fact that there are different ways of doing the same thing. Not just his way. (I'm think I'm like rambling again)

Sometime I feel that I compromise myself abit too much and not really stand up to what I really wanted. I think I just hated confrontation. I've been to into a couple of them, but seems there is a feel of bitterness after it. I guess it's only human. And those that said "I love to have a good argument" are people who can't lose and have to have it their way. They are just trying to justify the fact that they can't accept different thinking by saying that argument is good. (Just my observations). hehehehe

Sugar coating stuffs is good. Who ever say it isn't and that just speak bluntly are so off! They said that because they don't know the art of communication. It's so easy to just be blunt and then ends it with "Please don't take it personality". That is so wrong, unless that person is professional to the extreme and have no feeling, there's absolutely NO WAY that they won't feel bad. There are always way to say the same thing nicely and make it more like a suggestion. Makes the other more open and less defensive and you actually get your point across.

When you are rude, even if you are right, the person is offended. Just because you are right, it doesn't mean you can be all rude and an asshole about it. Cos one day, you will make mistake and it's going to come back to you. I've been the mistake one, and also the right one. There's no need to take it to heart and make the others miserable. I'm still trying my best to not be an asshole sometime. Whenever I feel I'm becoming one, I think to myself "It's just a job, people make mistake, and I don't have to take this after 6" and repeat it till I lost my concentration. hehehee. But, if it's on a personal level (nothing job related), then I will hate you for life. And by hating, I mean like not talking to you, or won't rescue you if you are hanging off a cliff or something. (Actually I think I would, but after I saved you, I will still not talk to you). wkakakaka

You give out honey, you gets candy back. You give sour, you get sour~ Karma people!

*I love this puggy coin purse. It sugar coats all the 10/20/50 cents that are useless and evil!

要充電 (I need a charge!)

2008-04-02T21:24:00.003+08:00

I've been pretty much just staying at home, going to work, staying at home *repeat. And it's really starting to tired me out. I need a charge! I need a vacation I think, just to add abit of outside energy! Sigh, but have to wait till after April first since I got a little weight competition going on with Chris. It's either Diet or Die! And $1000 is on the line. Give me strength people!!! Raghhhhh

戀人末滿 (Not yet a lover)

2008-03-24T15:21:00.005+08:00

4 days holiday in Hong Kong and it's time for me to really clean up. My home is pretty clean as it is, but I wanted to throw away the broken IKEA bookshelf which is just a couple months old... sigh. And also that shoe cabinets in the middle of the house. I was moving it and it cracked. Now I dare not touch it, worry it will collapse. I went ahead and like totally throw aways hundreds (well, actually like 150ish) magazines out the door. I sort of miss it, but then if I havn't flip them for like 2 yrs, I guess it's pretty useless.

So now, the plan is to buy magazine, and throw them out in 6 mths time. I don't wanted to end up like some people who just keep everythings and never use them. WASTE space! It might not be that environmentally friendly though, but I did recycle the magazines, so I gain some Karma there. hee hee.

Going through old stuffs and throwing them away is good, cos I ended up finding ALOT of old photographs (dated to 2001! whahahaha, not that old I guess). I want to burn them cos I look pretty bad in them. And also, I found some old songs from that era too. My college years! Currently, my favorite is "戀人末滿" Meaning "We're pass friend, but we ain't lover yet". It's done by Taiwain girl pop group "S.H.E.". Don't even try to find their photo with google image. I tried, and the images that pop up are nude transvesities for some reason >_< hehehehehe.

Oh! do check up my imeem thing at the right, I will try my best to upload songs that I'm currently listening to. This 戀人末滿 will so be in there.

得來不易

2008-03-19T22:41:00.003+08:00

I'm totally stress about this. I used to have my "On my third cup of coffee" back in 2001 where I actually upload new html page of text and upload via FTP! OMG! I'm like totally blogging back in 2001! Hahhaa, actually back then, in that "blog", it's basically about my days working in a national (later become international since I saw one in Dubai) coffee chain in Toronto. I come up with names for different regulars. I try my best to recall them:

Fresh pot bitch: This woman basically comes in and always said the coffee is not fresh! Even though I just changed it a minute ago. I remember one time I was changing the pot. And she came in. The old pot is behind me cos I didn't have time to put it away. After I pour her the coffee, she was like this is not fresh. (Cos i think she saw a pot behind me and asume that that is the fresh one). So I replaced it with the old one. Pour, and a happy customer.

Lancome lady: She works at the Lancome counter at "The Bay" department store. Come in always order those chillier coffee thing.

Beavis and Butthead: These two lovely ladies comes in always together with their baby. Their purpose in life is to prepare me with high EQ in my future careers. They come in; ask what we have. Then they will order the one that is not on brew. But we have this stupid "perfect cup" policy at the store, so we need to grind the bean, just to make them one cup of coffee. It's like total customer satifaction! But tell that to the 10 people waiting in line for 10 minute.
One time they come in during Christmas seasons and again order the "perfect cup". My boss tell them we are out of that bean... hahahahahha

That's all I remember. I think the site that host it is actually gone and never to be seen again. It was a fun time of my life, but I didn't really treasure it. So people, archive!

*The photo contain my title 得來不易 meaning "Things don't come easy". ""... and yes, I know my finger looks like a wee wee on him. That's the point! hahahah" ^_^

Lately... I've been lazy

2008-03-12T22:16:00.003+08:00

Haven't updated my blog for awhile, I promise, I will do more update more often. Even if it means just random stuffs that just happened to me. During the last couple of months, ALOT have changes mainly dealing with works, money, and just – life. But then if you ask if they are major changes? I wouldn't said so. But just stuffs I've dealt with in the past, so I'm like totally fine this time around. Aging does have it's benefit. hee hee.

I realized that I really really love buying CDs, I tried to cut down on the cost of it by going 2nd hand, but then, with that you need to try it out w/ you luck to see if you can find it. And HK is such a bad place for 2nd hand stuff. I guess if I do more auction at yahoo or ebay, I might get better result. But then I hate those kind of stuff.

It's sort of late do a New Year resolution, but here's go. I will try to become more active with Art and culture stuff and will try to do more blogging on those instead. Like HK needs arts! I might be materialistic but hey, I do need my Art and culture sometime too! kekkeeke

*The photos have nothing to do with this blog, but I just love the blue hue of it.

轉牛角尖

2007-10-03T22:59:00.000+08:00

我常常都覺得轉牛角尖是一件很愚蠢的事。所以我會將所有事情都用一個「每一件壞事都是一件好事的開始」想法。我都知道好有阿Ｑ精神不過我就是用這方法生活了三十年了。好可惜有兩件事到這時我也是想不開。兩件都是不能變的事實，越是要想就越想不通。這一壞事我知到如果發生了（希望永遠永遠不會發生），到我死時也不會想到會有什麼好事因為這件壞事而來。每次想一想我自己也怕到要死,時時在想為什麼會這樣的？很不甘心，很不服。

另外的一個就真的是自己找的。很多年後我也放不開。哈哈，自己其實一開始就知道答案，只是不想相信所有明顯的提示。所有朋友也聽到煩了，所以還是說說有什麼東西要買會好一點。不開心的事不是要來分享的。自己也不想太煩人。

轉牛角尖的事還是自己解決吧！

用心聽：春光乍洩 – A glimpse of lust

2007-08-06T20:57:00.000+08:00

I haven't write for quite awhile, but I just was listening an old song that I love. Wanted to share the meaning (Hope my translation don't suck):
(Click title for the video, it features Kelly Chan!!! OMG! hahaha)

The song is sang by Anthony Wong:

春光乍洩 - 黃耀明
曲︰黃耀明／蔡德才
詞︰林夕
編︰蔡德才

你以目光感受　浪漫寧靜宇宙
You experience the peace with your sight

總不及兩手　輕輕滿身漫游
But it's not as pleasurable as caressing

再見日光之後　欲望融掉以後
When the sun sets, lust devour everything

那表情會否　同樣溫柔
Will you still look so innocent then?

意亂情迷極易流逝
Couldn't think straight anymore

難耐這夜春光浪費
Couldn't let a night like this be wasted

難道你可遮掩著身體
Do you think you can cover up your body and

來分享一切
Enjoy everything?

愈是期待愈是美麗
The longer the wait, the more desirable it becomes

來讓這夜〔乍現〕春光代替
Let lust take over the night

難道要等青春全枯萎
I don't want to wait till my youth are gone

至得到一切
Before I get it

你我在等天亮　或在沉默醞釀
Are we waiting for the sun raises or building up the emotion

以嘴唇揭開　講不了的遐想
Explore our untold thoughts with our lips

你我或者一樣　日夜尋覓對像
You and I could be the same, hoping to fine the other all day

卻朝夕妄想　來日方長
But it's useless, the days are long

愈是期待愈是美麗
The longer the wait, the more desirable it becomes

來讓乍現春光代替
Let lust take over the night

難道要等一千零一世
Or do we have to wait a lifetime

才互相安慰
To regret it

HHW's IMHO: How "Customer's always right" brought down a company

2007-07-11T22:29:00.000+08:00

Well, actually that's just part of the reason. haha. Had a bad news the other day. One of the company I used to work for is going to cut alot of people because of some lost account. I didn't work there for a long time. Just a couple of years. But I see so much changes from the day I joined to the day I leave. It started from being professional to being "do what the client told". It's not really like that when I begin, we would usually fight with client about some changes and we back it up w/ reason. We win some, we lost some. But I feel at least that's what being professional means.

But then, "Do as the client said cos they are always right!". After that, what client wants client gets. Things become weird, styles not being follow, the wrong photos used, the wrong text, wrong spelling, everything that can become ammatureish, becomes exactly that. And when things comes up, I wonder how many time the client is gonna said "Yes, it screw up because of me.". It's more likely be "But you guys can always correct me wrong if I make a mistake. That's why I hired you guys.".

Guess customer might not always be right. And actually that's why the company is hired for the job. To make the product professional and correct for the market. No man is an island <-- Love this phase that seems to be lost in today's world. Everyone thinks they are the best. I try to be more humble and soak up everything from people around me, especially their failure. Like they said, you can only fail so many times.

And of course, there are other reasons but I feel that this 'delication' to client's satifaction in a way hinder the relationship, and brought down the company.

玩物喪志 (Materialism corrupts the mind): MoSoap

2007-07-04T21:03:00.000+08:00

I discovered Pine Tar soap when I have some skin allergy. I'm so prone to skin allergy that it ain't even funny. Anyway, I find the Pine Tar soap really awesome and really don't dry up my skin. I find the smell... abit bad but I can manage. So I went on a soap hunt (Pine Tar soap that is). And I finally come to the destination MoSoap. *Click headline for link*

The soaps are amazing and don't smell bad as with the original one I got from Hong Kong. Anyway, the owner is very nice and you can see the personal touches and delication from the package. I even got some free samples! Maybe because I order it from oversea? For you who have skin allergy or just want some old time soap, give them a try!

玩物喪志 (Materialism corrupts the mind) : Prada Phone

2007-07-04T20:41:00.000+08:00

The Prada phone... I use installment plans for most of my gadgets unless it's like a couple hundred off if I pay full, otherwise, I do installments. My last phone – Nokia 6131 is 1 year old ( I know, cos I just paid my 12/12 payment), so it's time to do another installment instead! I went and go for the Prada phone! I admit I'm a follower of materialism (but i do have some saving. hee hee). And this phone totally rocks! I find the camera of my last phone is not that good even with a 1.6 million color screen; I think that with cellphones, Asia is abit ahead than the rest of the world (IMHO!). Anyway, Steven and I try to persuade the other to buy the Prada phone by showing each other reviews (only good ones) over msn and photos of the phone. The Scheider lens got me completely sold on this thing and it really didn't disappoints. Also the name Prada is a nice touch! hee hee (係！我係膚淺！膚淺係我！我認！）

Under the law of Skin deep, once you got something, you must go online and reconfirm that this is the only possible choice you have by going to read more good reviews of the thing. hahahaha. Right now, no complaint there with the phone~

However, I feel abit sad for the Nokia. Cos that is the only phone I got that never ever hang or go crazy on me. And the reward for constance devotion is being traded-off... the material world have no long lasting relation. Don't worry Nokia 6131, you will have your revenge to the Prada phone in 1 year when my installment plan ends. But then you would most likely be in China being used by another person.

玩物喪志：Ricoh GX100 (Materialism corrupts the mind: Ricoh GX100)

2007-07-04T20:31:00.000+08:00

I've gotten this awhile ago (Actually around 3 wks). I'm not really a camera person, but my last one (Thank you Danny~)'s battery is going weird so I needed to replace the camera. Hehehe, the camera was also 3 years old! For someone like me, it's time for a change! But I don't want to replace my camera again for awhile so I opt for a better one. I had a hard time picking between G7 (Cannon) and GX100. I asked some of the photographers who I worked with and ask them. They said it's kindna hard to choose. Since they use DSLR but they said both are very good choice. But G7 was a easier to use camera for someone in my position. But then, the LCD add on viewfinder and the wider lens is soooo coool! So I go against the advice and got the GX100 instead. hehehe. They said it's no problem because it's still a good camera!

用心聽：虛冠廷 Lowell Lo

2007-07-02T14:27:00.000+08:00

Lowell Lo, a singer back in the 80s/90s (early i think) produces some of the best songs imho. Maybe because I always liked some folky/acoustic music i guess. And the lyrics are not the usual love story thing. Making it even more (way more) cool! Don't get me wrong, I do like HK pop.

This is my favorite song of his: 世事何曾是絕對 (Nothing is absolute). It have this theatrical opening and actually through out the whole song. Then I discovered that this song is the closing song for 1/2段情 (Infatuation) (1985).

九龍一遊 A trip in Kowloon

2007-06-19T21:35:00.000+08:00

Today is a holiday in Hong Kong, so I had this trip to two museums. The first one in Tuen Wan (End of Kowloon), but the place is close today!!! ( I didn't check their operating time) so that was a fast one. I then headed toward Tsim Sha Tsui to a centralize area of museums in HK. In it, is the cultural centre, the space and the art museums.

I went to the Art one. It's quite typical stuffs show-casting gold, jade, some chinese calligraphies (which are superb~ ^_^ ) and also some paintings by westerners during the beginning of Hong Kong. The way they depict Hong Kong is quite different then the way I'm told in the family. I guess it's because it's told in another cultural perspective and also the lifestyle they are in. However many of the paintings are lost when the Japanese invaded HK. So now, the hunt is ON!!!

Another treat is that there's this exhibition on Hong Kong's homeless(es). It have stories and photos of where are they now. And very happy to find out that many actually have their home now (tiny but still a home). From the many stories there, many actually live on the street cos of their pride. Very ironic actually because to avoid family that you fail, you go on living on the street. Anyway, so my observation is correct! I've been telling people that HK have less 'beggers' than when I was young.

After all this, I went to have dinner, it's still abit hard and uncomfortable to have dinner alone (unless it's fastfood chain) but then, i'm told that once you get used to it, its' one of the best experience you can get. I hope it's true. Cos I'm planning to go on a trip all alone. I'm sort of excited about this, cos I never really been on a trip alone where there is no friend or travel buddy. (except Dubai, but then that's a business trip). So my first destination is going to be Macau! haha, follow by Kyoto. Wish me luck!

The girl is actually blind but just wanted to be there. However with her health condition, she can not travel from her home to Beijing. Ended up, the whole town got together and make her final wish come true by pretending that the girl actually arrived to Beijing. A total of 2000 people helps make the lie and her wish come true. Luckily, the girl is still alive today after a donation that helps her get the right treatment and she finally go to Beijing for real. :-)

Weight Wai's Weight 與肥作戰

2007-05-24T19:17:00.000+08:00

Doing a charity at work by signing up on how much weight we are going to lose. People sponsor a certain amount by each lb we lost. I'm targeting at 10lbs and hopefully by a combination of dieting and exercise. I will finally go to my clubhouse for the first time since I moved in almost 2 years ago. I'm just so not committed to do any sort of gym/exercise. I'm more of a comic nerd, rather read comics over the wkend then taking a walk and stuff. Ah Dat gave me alot of exercise before but now I'm on my own. hahaha. Hopefully can keep it up.

I even brought a pair of nike to commit myself for it (Check my flickr~). I chosen a polka dots Nike Free cos currently, I'm all thing polka dots! kakaka. (at least for this summer). Originally I wanted to get the nike air max '95... but it's all sold out. Only small sizes are available. It's very weird. Since converse's size for me is 8 but with nike, I have to go up to 9.javascript:void(0)5. Very hard to do a standard I guess.

Current weight: 149lb
Current waist: 34" (oh no!!!!! but pants size is still 32") >_<"

用心聽：虛無的美 (Sweet Nothing) - Matthew Barber

2007-05-22T21:04:00.000+08:00

After the trip back to Toronto, I revisit all thing Canadian. And one of those is Matthew Barber, an indie rock singer/songwriter – Canadian of course. I got his CD at best buy and could only get his latest one. I somehow managed to have no time to shop at HMV that much or when I'm in HMV, I totally forget what I should be getting. Anyway, I ordered his cd via Amazon and will have it early June. Can't wait!

Most favorite song is "Like lightning". Love it. Check it out at your music store. If not, you will have to buy the CD on amazon.com. noooo, I don't work for him. I just like his music. hahaha

Kid Nation

2007-05-18T14:44:00.000+08:00

In the fall, CBS will have a show that I’m interested in. It’s call “Kid Nation”. 40 kids, 40 days in a city call Bonanza City in New Mexico. It totally remined me of Lord of the Flies, an awesome novel and the movie ain’t bad too. I hope the show won’t be a dissappointment but from their trailer, some of the kids are so mature, it’s sort of scary. I like kids to act and talk like a kid please.

回家前，想一想

2007-05-01T13:42:00.000+08:00

今個星期二（明天）就同阿仔返加拿大了。上一次回家的時候完全沒有想過會三年多後才會再次返家。父母說「依家你一定認唔到路！唔同曬啦。」所以今次我將當自己從來沒有去過加拿大，行程已定，將會去的地方會幾好的。有行街，歷史，音樂，Nigara-on-the-lake，Church Street 就一定會同Ｚ去！Phantom，Big Daddy's!!! 正呀！

工作上做到好悶（幾個月前已經有些想走），這次回家的時候來得正好。感覺會令我想一想回港的時候是不是要有個新轉變。不過一日有層樓，變極都不會太大。不想啦！依家只想想去到加拿大時會有幾好玩！！！

好想快點返去說「我返黎啦！！！」

When asked me 3 years ago about getting a pug, I would said never. I never really like flat nose dog. But then Dad wanted a pug pretty badly so I go with the flow. *Another lesson learned! Parents do know best. I grew to love Ah Dat in everything he does. He never seems to run out of ways to make a fool of himself and just fill me up with alot of happiness! But for both his and my own good (in feeling guilty not able to take care of him), it's going to be much better if Ah Dat moves to Toronto where he will be spoiled in a whole new level!

As of Wednesday, May 2nd. Ah Dat will become the Toronto pug!

Bye and kisses from Ah Dat – The Hong Kong pug

Dschinghis Khan

2007-04-23T23:08:00.000+08:00

If you been on the internet and watching random video, I'm sure you would have come across the German disco band – Dschinghis Khan's Moskau. The video is awesome!!! and does the typical stereotype disco dance moves. Those old school dance and awesome campy outfits are amazing! Crazy amazing!

Their songs reminds me of Boney M though. I think it could be because of the song Rasputin. It's really similar to Moskau. The Russian sounds perhaps? On wiki, it seems that the bands does moves on even though two of the members of the original band passed away. But then, they did entertain and in a way, they are making a sort of a comeback as a cult thing on the internet.

Let's all Moskau! Moskau!

用心聽：告訴星辰間的居住者 (Calling Occupants Of Interplanetary Craft)

2007-04-18T22:45:00.000+08:00

I really like the music of The Carpenters. Karen's voice makes me very comfortable and relax, and Richard's arranging skill is very precise (seem like a math formula to some). But with the music they are making and Karen's soft voice, I think it fits perfectly. Even though I like them alot, I never have one of their CD except the "Best of". Maybe because I'm just too cheap to buy the album when basically all their songs are on their numberous "Best of" CDs. However, I will get "Now and then" (pictured) when I'm back in Canada. hee hee.

The main reason is because of the awesome cover. I think this is one of the best album cover I ever seen. It just so different sort of like a snap shot but you know it isn't. The background, colors, everything, just reflect the time era so nicely. It also reminded me of my first home in Toronto when I was 8.

The song: "Calling Occupants Of Interplanetary Craft" originally done by Klaatu (Canadian!) are one of my favourite song sing by The Carpenters. I like how this is breaking the usual Richard's arrangements and yet, it still have that Carpenters signature. My favourite song? It will be a tie between "I need to be in love" and "Solitaire". Such sad songs.

※ "Calling Occupants Of Interplanetary Craft" is featured in The Carpenters' "Passage" album.

Music to buy and others

2007-04-15T21:53:00.000+08:00

Getting close to my Toronto trip and things have been busy both in work and in my personal life. Mainly because getting my son (Ah Dat 阿達) ready for the flight and the trips to the vet have taken a big toll on my wallet. But then it's for a good reassurance and that's something I need right now.

On the light side of things, I'm building up a list of things I have to buy in Toronto. (Yes, actually there are things that I can't get in HK whereas I can get in T.O.) Mainly is because HK's range of music is quite limited – OR I just don't know where to look. A colleague of mine told me of a place which I haven't explore yet, will so do when I have some time off. Right now, the new Feist CD is out!!! OH YEAH!!! I'm sure most of you know who she is, if you don't, please remind yourself of that awesome song in Lacoste's ad. The song that sings "Helping the kids out of their coats. Oh wait the babies haven't been born oh~~ oh oh oh oh oh~" : Mushaboom.

I'm sure I can get it in HK, but then I'll be heading back to T.O. soon so I might as well get it then. Another CD is Joan Osborne's Relish. I hate myself for not getting this CD when it was released 1995, so yes, I've been hating myself for more than 10 years for this. Check her out if you haven't done so, but then how would you not know?

Now I just need to think hard to see what else to get. Maybe some vintage tees from Queen St. and hopefully a pair of nice demin at "Over the rainbow" on Yorkville. BUT, it was so hot then (When I was still in college), but now after I'm in HK, the brands they carry don't seems to be so chic anymore... but there are always hope.

Oh, and magazine! I will get tonnes of magazines!!! OH YEA!

Mixture of Chinese and English

2007-04-02T20:52:00.000+08:00

Writing in Chinese is alot harder than I thought since I haven't use Chinese for ages. It doesn't really express what I wanted (though my English pretty suck too.) So from now on, I think I will start writing back in English (with a mix of Chinese) so that it feels more like me instead of Yahoo dictionary's translation.

中文比我想像中難，加上表達不到，所以又要寫返英文。對不起！！！

用心聽：蓓蒂.戴維絲的眼

2007-03-29T22:45:00.000+08:00

今日聽返一隻好耐沒有聽過的CD。名字是Kim Carnes – Bette Davis Eyes。我其實好喜歡聽Country的⋯⋯不過好多人都不太喜好，由他吧！Carnes既聲線好沙的，我非常鐘意沙聲的，因為我覺得沙啞聲好有感情。可能自己不是沙聲吧，所以覺得沙沙地聲的人不論男女都好有吸引力的。她的唱法跟其他人有點分別的，有點似讀但又不是。像Jewel似的但Carnes沙好多好多！雖然Carnes不是大紅大紫，但是也是樂壇的另一類音樂演繹。如果香港可以有多點音樂就好啦！（我也喜歡香港Pop的！！！請不要說K歌）

The Children of Hurin，LOTR 最後之作。不過係講返之前的事，早到Sauron都未夠班做大魔王。希望會好讀啦。因為這本小說無由J.R.R. Tolkien 個仔寫完的.

樹海樹海

2007-03-14T22:26:00.000+08:00

上網看到一些有關樹海的資料。樹海 (Aokigahara Jyukai 青木ヶ原樹海) 是在富士山下的森林。一個美麗的旅遊地方，可惜樹海亦都是一個自殺聖地。如沒有錯的話，《完全自殺手冊》說樹海是一個你永遠不想比發現的自殺地方。人一進入樹海就會自自然然迷失方向。指南針會無效，不過這已不要緊，一心要在這世界消失的人現在所想的一定不會是怎樣回家。在幾個日本網站上看到一些上吊的屍體、骨頭、再沒有可能再用的鞋，個心很不舒服。來樹海自殺的人是不想再被發現，不想有任何線索留下。在富士山樹海四季轉變下，這些人悠悠地被遺忘。不過我覺得接觸過他們的人會有時侯還會記起他們的，因為我們是人嗎！

這些人最後一刻會在想什麼呢？

我自己好少讀書，不過現在會盡量讀多些。用中文寫blog真係好難，因為中文不是太好。希望可以一路寫，一路會進步。

今次想講講 Kane and Abel 這本書。故事關於兩個由完全不同世界的人 — 他們的什樣鬥爭。我不想講太多因為我是最不鐘意做 book report，同這本書是十分好讀的！我也不想破壞結局呀！！我兩天就讀完因為實在太吸引。給朋友讀也很快讀完。我只想講全本書最不幸的是收養 Abel 母親。她甚麼都沒有做錯⋯⋯只可惜她的遭遇是比死更難受。

希望你們都選讀這本書。

初次接觸: Sam Cooke

2007-03-03T14:27:00.000+08:00

Lee Hazelwood 同 Sam Cooke 已經吾係新人. Hazelwood 止有一年生命, 而Cooke, 他已經死了廿年. 不過我宜家先接觸到這兩位歌手. Sam Cooke - Live in Harlem Square Club 係我少買既 live cd, 因為 live 就緊係要 live 先好聽. 同時現在既 live cd 做到好似正常的唱片, 之不過係歌與歌之間加入聽眾既叫聲.

聽完這唱片後, 我要從生諗過我對 live cd 既偏見. Sam Cooke - Live in Harlem Square Club 完全比到我係現場既感覺. 由介紹 Cooke 到佢一路唱一路同大家講"要走啦!要走啦!"都好有現場感. Cooke 由開始到最後都完完全全同現場既人交融一起. 係佢既風格, 係作一個為表演者既最基本但最重要既條件. 同一張唱片點 Remastered 係無關, 呢張唱片直情有Statics, 可能因為太耐之前啦. 不過完全係我最鍾意既 Live CD. (第二最愛係梅艷芳最後既"梅艷芳經典金曲演唱會", 雖然梅既唱功吾係最好因為有癌症, 但梅的感染度同對音樂, 生命態度在這張唱片永遠記錄下來. 這唱片我聽了一次後不敢再聽了, 因為好傷感．．．．．．）

返回 Cooke. Cooke 既表現好正, 真係一個真正既 King of Soul, 吾係狂拉長尾音. Cooke用他的音樂帶動聽眾, 令所有人都捲入一起. Cooke 已經係一個傳奇人物, 在 Soul music 中的一位先父. 佢既音樂我要加點心機認識.

初次接觸: Lee Hazelwood

2007-03-03T13:29:00.000+08:00

係 NOW (吾係香港 Netvigator) , 睇到介紹Hazelwood. 好像不錯, 即時上Amazon買來聽聽. 好多時我都吾去HMV, 因為佢地既服務吾係咁得. 第時先講.

Hazelwood 既聲音好deep, 真係好country. 聽既時候, 令我想起Kill Bill, 有raw既感覺. 不過吾代表佢既歌曲無編排過! 其實我自己覺得Hazelwood這張唱片編得比一般的好. 係有諗過呀.

又wiki過佢之後, 發覺Hazelwood 已經有 cult 既地位. 不過好可惜, 這會是他最後既唱片. 因為腎臟癌症, Hazelwood 子有一年既生命.

Siouxsie & the Banshees

因為 Marie Antoinette Soundtrack, 所以聽了 "Hong Kong Garden"。勁好聽！睇CD後才知道 "Siouxsie & the Banshees" 這對組合。"Hong Kong Garden" 好上腦，都幾好Rock。我自己聽好多音樂但係我吾會點研究。對我來講，自己鐘意就好了, 不用樣樣都要知到底。最多都係上下 Wikiepieda來過１０１。"Siouxsie & the Banshees"係一對 Punk/Goth/"New Age" (全部吾係好識) Band 先組。對之後既 Punk Band 有好大既影響呀！hmmm, 一陣去買黎聽聽。

假期前後

2007-02-23T14:31:00.000+08:00

前因後果

2007-02-13T13:29:00.000+08:00

每一事都有佢既前因後果，好似宜家係工作上有一位同事所做既野終於要還。不是我們沒有比機會,而係因為我地比得太多機會而令到我地（連佢＝六個同事）會無左份工。所以上頭最後都要同佢講再見。佢到宜家都未知，其實都幾慘。止可以講聲：前因後果

心中既一團火

2006-06-11T08:30:00.000+08:00

人就係咁，無野做時又哎悶,有得你做就話要休息（我自己都係咁）。所以我已經學識?悶其實係一件好事。係一個時候諗諗你所做既所有事值o吾值得你既時間。當然你係要生活（有個有錢男／女朋友養另計），但係你付出?既時間所換來的是"今日我又有飯食“。值得嗎？
當你悲觀、懷疑、困惑地想你這幾年來（有些人係十幾二三十年）做既一切原來只是為了生活而無其他的時候，你個INBOX又有野要做啦。
你那心中的一團火是那一天熄滅？

Waiting for the lift. Sometime some kids hold the lift open on the 1st floor. I give them the stare when they arrive in the ground level. The survillence are installed to drive out the prositutions in our buildings. But then the men will take one lift (odd number lift) and the prositutes (6F) takes the other (even number lift)... So yes, I ride the lift with those sick men. I also give them the stare, they just look at their shoes.

Crimes of Hong Kong

Was reading some crime story, but there really isn't much info about these crimes, I remember watching ATV and they have a show abt the most famous 10 crimes of HK. I couldn't find ten, and 1 (hello kitty) one is actually quite recent tim. I remember there's one where the wife kill and then cook the husband... anyway, here's what i found.

-----
Taxi killer - Killed at least 4 (most are positute) during rainy night in his taxi during 1982. Kept the organs of his vitcim and many photographs.

Tv box kiling - Killing a school girl in 1974 and just put her inside a tv box,
released last year.

North Point, originally uploaded by hwh222.

Here's one of my most like MTR ("subway" in Toronto) in Hong Kong. it's "North Point", which is all orange and a transfer back to the Kowloon side. Which is located at the finish line u see at the end of the tunnel. It's very cool ga, cos people ran like hell to catch the mtr on the other side ( or they will have to wait 2 minute for the nxt train), so i think if u were one of the hong kong people chasing the train, you will have this effect! Good luck catching your ride la!
