Thanks my dear friends...

Well thanks for all your kind words and comfort. Of course I'm grateful to have friends like you all... I know it's part of life -yet i'm not sure if i really "learn" from the "lesson" (haha, some times i'm quite "cow skin + black paint")... but anyway, it just... kinda frustrating after such a long time and still not "clicking"

it's not like we completely shut out each other in our life... i just know i've to be STRONGER as I don't know how long i can "hold" myself "not to fall" into this endless, no return "relationship" AGAIN - maybe i should be "proud" that at least one instinct i'm "awake"?

Alright guys/gals, just introduce me some nice pisces such that I can change my target wakakakakakkaakkakakakaw

cloud negative a thousand...................

so i blow it...

i don't know whether this is another "wrong" decisions among all i've made in the last quarter or so - but i really can't do it sorely from the so-called "business/investment" point of view. I know i'm being selfish to tell you what my feeling deep down - but i can't help it as it had been bothering me ever since u've brought that up - cloud 10 to cloud 2 to cloud 8... and cloud 'negative a thousand" eventually...

i'm not trying to give you pressure, as i well known it's "not clicking" - i really don't wanna go back to the same old loop - but it's something serious, something i don't think i can trick and fool myself anymore - a commitment that i couldn't even keep it for myself - how can i keep with someone whom i see "no future" as we ain't "clicking?????

it hurts, it really does. i know you probably won't feel any better (or - just another "illusion" i've - that you actually care free?????) i don't know anymore... i really treasure for whatever we "have" between us... you mean so much to me and just part of me, in different levels.... the more i treasure the more afraid I'm to loss...........

but i just can't help knowing this's a dead end and i should "return"...

i know i need to be strong... i've to believe that it's the right thing to do... yet.. i just wanna hide away...

sleepless - or maybe it's just b/c of the jet lag... *sigh*

Heading home....

So here i'm - at ORD again - about 20 min before boarding. Time flies w/ light speed whenever it's vacation time - 8 days i've spent here in the States - and on the way back to hell.

There's too much feelings during this trip, most of the time positive, but also have times where reality hits. Too much to blog. a few wanna put on "record":

1. Vicky's wedding - just want to say i'm very happy and touched to attend vick & daniel's wedding. Congra to the newly wed again, i think this is the 2nd wedding which i feel so touched after my sis's one. After all vick is really like a sis / good friend. I'm so happy to see her "happily and ever after"

2. Purdue's gang - to me vick's wedding is also a 'mini-reunion" for our gangs from Purdue - well, as far as i can say most can attend. I kept thinking this is like our "10-yr-reunion" - 10 yrs since we've know each other, the very first semester we were in purdue. There's lots of changes, but always nice to stick around and make fun w/ our "happiness origin - liu ka yuen" (wakakkakakakaa). I love these dear friends deeply. it's very old mud to say but it's really true that although we're thousands and thousands miles away, my thoughts are always w/ them and i look forward to more "10-yr-reunion" - and at least we can talk about the 24 hr Korean BBQ next time :P

3. Revisiting Purdue - i can't believe this is the 2nd time i'm back to campus since i graduate from 2000. ppl may think i'm crazy but i do still have certain level of attachment to the school. i feel blessed and lucky that each time i get a chance to return to the old place - a place where i've my most precious moments in my life, still. Although ppl ain't there anymore, i still enjoy being on campus and see the growth...

4. Chicago - as of last post :P

5. Detroit and Niagara Falls - took lots of picts, did had great fun but...

well, these are all i wanna say for now, flight is on time and time for boarding - to a place call "home".

Niagara Falls...

Just got back from NF and back to Chicago - 10 hrs drive (although not me but still!!)

anyway, did get WET (soaking wet as a matter of fact!) when going to the boat tour Maid of the Mist


and the fall looks fabulous at nite

the trip itself was great... but also (expected) a cloud 9 -> cloud 2 tour (as i said, "as expected") too tried to say much now - need to prepare for tmr's wedding... blog later ;P

Thursday, June 21, 2007

half done - half to go!!

I just arrived Detroit... it's a long day and too tired to blog in details... but before i felt asleep before knowing (ahahahahaahah), would like to say:

JC - you're my savior!!! Rest of trip will be empty if you didn't come!!!!!!!

A note from Chicago - well, close enough :P

well so this is the "2nd" morning I'm in the States...

A recap:

Sat nite - dinner at MAGGIANO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! the famous stuffed mushroom!!! (i had TWO! wakakkakakaka) too bad vick & daniel can't join b/c they're on Atkins (so poor!) hahahahaha



too full for tiramisu though :D

Then spent a nite w/ Vick and Daniel - so glad they take me in - i don't even remember when was the last time vick and i really sit down sit down and talk? probably like 8/9 yrs ago? MY GOSH... i've know vick and the gangs for 10 yrs.. and she's getting marry on Sat! Trust Daniel can take good care of her... very happy for the couple!! :)

Then yesterday - Sunday - woke up WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY early for a SUNDAY BREAKFAST - that's right, a BREAKFAST, NOT BRUNCH @_@''' but it's nice to spend some time w/ vicky & daniel gae :D

Afterward - brunch AGAIN - but then i only had 2 ORANGE flavor coffee (too full ma).. turn out quite okay woh - and the whole store just smell soooo orange kakakakakakaka



then had a LONG walk around downtown chicago and lincoln park - actually the weather is quite nice for the walk (just a bit hazzy)

ha, probably DONE the "walking quota" for the week - if not month :P


Then we head for the boat Architect Tour It's super cool - i mean, sitting there and just see Chicago's skyline :) i've taken so many picts ;) just a bit scary whenever we go under some bridges (when cars are driving above us!!) (and one thing i remember from the tour guide is that chicago is one of the cities which has the most "workable" bridges - like 55 something in town




Thanks jc for the great trip planed!!! :)

and before the day's end (well it's like 7-ish by the time we finished the boat tour - but the sky is still "bright" why bother dinner?!) hahahahahahahahhahahaa... anyway - to "fullfil" another request of mine - we went for DEEP DISH pizza




it's like one of the chicago's most favorite - but as the rest said - deep dish is only once a yr - just too rich XDDDDDDDDDDD

Thanks again jc and HIS "Cloud 9 friend" - got a great time in Chicago - i think i do have a much better impression of Chicago than before - things are just so convenient - and have whatever type of food you wanna have. the city has both the busy side (business-wise), but at the same time one can always just go to Lake Michigan for a relaxing weekend....

or just that i'm more adjusted to city life now than 7 yrs before - so i like chicago more now than then?

I don't know... maybe.....

P.S. Oh have to mention i'm watching Chinese channels here - the commercial is just UNBELIEVABLY funny wakakakkakaka...

P.P.S. glad can have some rest today - gosh my feet still hurt today :( i hope it'll be better when i head to Purdue tmr ;)

Seafood dinner w/ ASAT folks - & visit Uncle H's bb girl~

so today after my hair cut went to visit Uncle Hugo's bb girl - and a reunion w/ the ASAT folks. man, the bb is so TINY (but very 硬淨!!) i think the name is very pretty too, think she'll have a happy life la :)

and afterward we went to 貝袋澳/布袋澳 for seafood dinner (nope, baby and mommy have to stay home for a month!! - but still we've a total of 13 ppl!!) Originally we wanna go to 發記 - but then they 1. don't have reservation service (anyway we were 40 min late!) hahaha.... and 2. NO A/C!!!! so instead we went to 海鮮島 (i think)... here's tonite's menu (as far as i remember):
  1. 豉椒 (?) 炒蜆 <- okay la. not bad gae
  2. 辣酒花螺 (of course i skipped la) XD
  3. 聖子 (jer san special request)
  4. 椒鹽瀨尿蝦 (it's like a FEET LONG!!! but i think it should be "sweeter"? but still good gae)
  5. 薑蔥炒蟹 (i ate crab!! wow!) hahahahaa
  6. 豆腐魚湯 (i think not strong enough)
  7. 沙薑雞
  8. 蒜茸炒油麥菜 (too watery - and no salt?)
  9. 椒絲腐炒生菜 (too watery too la)
  10. 蒜茸蒸象拔蚌 (with tons of garlic and 粉絲 on top, the soy sauce is the best!) hahahaha
  11. 炒飯 (make sure everyone is "full"
  12. 蒸魚一條 - called 黑瓜子 woh (meat texture okay ga, quite smooth)
  13. n # of cream soda, coke, sprit, and 1 Jacob Creek's Chardonnay (not cold enough boh) - oh, and 1 rice too XD
  14. Dessert: 橙 (it's not sour, but not sweet either)! XD
Cost each of us HKD245. Quite expensive - but seafood i guess okay gwa?! After all, i mean, frankly speaking i never am a big seafood fans - but have to admit tonite's dishes are VERY FRESH - and just being the gathering is worth it! :) we spent like 2 hrs there.... too bad it was a bit too dark to see the surrounding - suppose to be very pretty. One thing have to remarks - moon tonite is very bright - just like a pict! :)

Anyway, i think if have 10+ ppl then it worth to go - as can try variety of dishes - but just a bit too far - if no one is driving and have to take minibus loh :P

P.S. Thanks for jer san for the free ride~~ always a sweet guy (not only for the ride u know what i mean)!! kekekeeke..
