轉牛角尖

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

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

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



















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



















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)















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!
