Disneyland Hong Kong

Had a great time....

it was kinda hot... but nice that not too many ppl in the park - no long lines!

AND ran into Peter Yip & his girl - ha, seldom talk to him these days - even though we're both in HK now... well, really "yuen" I guess...

Glad to have this opportunity during this time to lighten life a bit........

Quote of the day~~

Jet Lag vs. Insomnia

So, I felt asleep at around midnite... and got up at four AGAIN... now I begin to wonder - is it really Jet Lag - or plainly another cycle of insomnia???

sigh... sometimes I don't wanna be "awake" - heart just felt so sore & tired whenever i'm awake - think of this and that... (well, I still haven't really "unpack" my stuffs - yet I don't have no mood for that...)

probably as you always said, I think too much...

then, tell me how to "not think too much"... I want to know how exactly to NOT THINKING about certain thing at all - typical Scorpio, either black or white - no grey or in between. I don't like that.

typical Scorpio I am, once target is there will work for it - regardless of the final turn out - I think I need to set another target such that my energy can be focus again - well, at least one of the good things, I guess, is that I got a raise from work!! let's focus on that, something that i can have a better / easier control....

and one more day to work and I'll go to HK Disney... I think that should do the trick & help forget all about something not necessary to remember in the last 2 wks...

an old signature quote from my hotmail acct:

"The feeling of love starts from the eye and the feeling of like starts from the ear. Therefore if you want to stop liking a person you used to like, all you need to do is cover your ears. If you try to close your eyes, love turns into a drop of tear and remains in your heart forever after. "

Definately closing my eyes now (or, just simply covering my ears??)...

05:50 - well, probably I shall try to get another 1.5 hrs of sleep before heading to work...

feelings at the moment....

我真的受傷了 (國語)

歌手：王菀之 作曲：王菀之
填詞：王菀之 編曲：伍仲衡

燈光也暗了　音樂低聲了
口中的棉花糖也融化了
窗外陰天了　人是無聊了
我的心開始想你了

＊電話響起了　你要說話了　
還以為你心裡對我又想念了　
怎麼你聲音變得冷淡了　
是你變了　是你變了　

燈光熄滅了　音樂靜止了　滴下的眼淚已停不住了　
天下起雨了　人是不快樂　我的心真的受傷了＊

REPEAT＊

我的心真的受傷了

Post Vacation Symdrome

so i'm back, well, for a couple of days already.

feeling terrible... absolutely HATE to fly for anything more than 8 hrs (it took me ELEVEN PLUS to fly from Tokyo to Detroit - i SWEAR i won't go to East coast no more!)... missing grandma so much (she past away when i was in Detroit - Aug 22 US 7+am)... body clock is totally messed up (that includes sleeping time, meal time, WAKE up time)... BIG eye bags (lack of sleep)... lack of couragement to write blog (although flooded w/ different thoughts)... missing the beach (although i won't set my foot on those in HK).... worst experience from Cheesecake factory... love sick (being totally stupid & upset abt this)... missing maggiano's tiramisu... feeling soooo old (seeing other's kids)... super addicted to microwavable macaronni & chesse (want some EXTRA pounds! my gosh!!)... AND GRANDE LATTE every morning (wanna get broke to do the same in HK?!)... computer broke down (for whatever the reason)... don't wanna come to work (yes, i'm at work NOW), super slow at replying work's emails (w/ low/no efficiency)... (oh, and not to mention, WHY in the world NO ONE is tracking the shipment arrival date in the WHOLE COMPANY?!?!?!?!?!)

i think i really have to think twice next time for taking such a marathon vacation. probably it'll be a good idea to take anything LESS than 7 days? or is it the destination/ppl that matters?

acutally all of the above can be "happy" if you see it from the other side.. but then just feel as dark as the cloud outside....

Count Down.....

7 days and 6 hrs I'll be landing in Detroit airport...

No more pre-vacation syndrome - or I should say TOO MUCH pre-vacation syndrome that I want to run away from work JUST NOW (and yes, I'm writing this in the office) :D

*actually I still haven't really confirm any agenda for ANY PART of my trip except the flight schedule - but then I was thinking - why bother? I think I'm just thinking TOO MUCH and everything shall be in order when I'm there - as old Chinese said, "the pier will be "straight" when the boat is there"

FW: 等我有空再愛你

等我有空再愛你

他向來說自己忙，哪有空陪她？其實他有的是時間，只是不肯花在她身上罷了。

大學時代，他總是忙著唸書和社團，好不容易等到寒暑假，他又忙著打工賺錢。那時他家中經濟拮据，唸書和打工是為了獎學金和賺學費。

這些都是事實，也是當理由，她覺得自己應該做個體貼的女友，所以也不強求他花時間在她身上，甚至盡力為他分憂解勞。

畢業後，他和幾個朋友合夥開了一間小公司，她則在出版社找了一份畫插圖的工作。創業維艱，白手起家非常辛苦，所以她不但替他處理家務，還每天送便當和宵夜到公司給他，每次都只是聊兩句就走了，深怕耽誤他的時間。 他的同事們都誇她體貼又得體，將來必定是個賢妻良母；她也有點沾沾自喜，認為自己的付出受到了肯定。

公司的營運終於步上常軌，照理說，他應該有空陪她了，可是他卻說：「 我希望在三十歲以前，有自己的車子和房子，還有足夠的存款，這樣才能安心、沒負擔地結婚 。」 於是他變得更忙、更拼了，就連她送便當到公司去，也常常見不到他。相較之下，她覺得自己像是遊手好閒。

交往五、六年了，她漸漸發覺自己總是在孤單寂寞中渡過，每年的生日、情人節、聖誕節，都是自己一個人和電視機一起渡過。 同事們總笑說她的男友只是個「傳說」，甚至還有朋友懷疑她是否真的有男朋友。

這些日子以來，她的體貼和識大體，除了換來男性朋友們的稱讚，和姊妹淘們的同情之外，什麼也沒有。 於是，她開始對他做出小小的「反應」，但總被他的好言相勸給抑制下來。 「今天的辛苦，是為了明天的幸福啊！」 「兩個人整天黏在一起，反而更快、更容易分手呢！」

情人節，在她萬般請求之下，他才終於答應晚上陪她到陽明山看夜景。 她殷殷期盼了一個多星期，卻因為一通朋友要他去應酬的電話，粉碎了這個夢。再也按捺不住這幾年來的孤單寂寞，她邊哭邊抱怨著、訴說著自己的委屈。「妳以為我喜歡忙嗎？我這麼辛苦，還不都是為了我們的未來！」此話一出，她變得啞口無言。

他不肯放手，而她也還沒準備好離開，可是現狀卻毫無改善。但是不甘願的種子已經在她心裡種下，生根發芽，等待開花結果的一天。 他有工作、有朋友、有應酬，所以他沒有空。 這些她也有，只是她長期選擇待在家裡、守著電話、等待他的來電、讓自己隨傳隨到，而推開了工作和朋友 。 現在，她不想再獨守空閨、癡癡地等他臨幸，不再劃地自限，決心找出自己的一片天。 她不再為他送便當和宵夜，寧可窩在辦公室裡邊啃麵包邊畫插圖，或是想想新點子；她也不再每天按時打電話問候他了，寧可和姊妹淘們喝咖啡、聊是非，或是花時間打扮自己，更添自信。

他漸漸發覺自己忙碌的生活裡，似乎少了些什麼，但總想不出到底是少了什麼。 半個月過去，他才驚覺是少了她。 心血來潮撥了通電話，卻被潑了桶冷水。 「我現在沒空，明天要交稿，我現在要趕稿。」說完，她立刻掛上電話。 他想，她總算有些事情可以忙，就不會常常埋怨他沒時間陪她了...各自忙碌的生活又過了兩、三個月。 這天，他談成一筆大生意，心情正好，想找她慶祝時，卻再度吃了閉門羹。 「我現在沒空，等一下要開會。最近應該也都沒空。」 開會？他從來都不知道她那份悠閒的畫圖工作需要開什麼會。原來她的插圖受到讀者歡迎，出版社打算為她出版一系列的圖畫筆記 書。 又過了一個多月，他終於買了夢想中的新車。 想起和她久未見面，決定開車帶她出去兜兜風。 「我現在沒空，要趕著去新書發表會。」 「我載妳去！」 「不用了，總編輯會送我去，我現在沒空。」

他再也無法忍受了。他們已經兩個多月沒有見面了，每次打電話給她，她總說沒有空，就匆匆掛上電話。 以前的她不是這樣的，這到底是怎麼回事？ 「妳到底還當不當我是妳的男朋友？妳到底愛不愛我？」 「我現在沒空，等我有空再愛你吧！」 按下結束通話鍵，她將手機丟到皮包裡，交給身旁的出版社總編輯，準備走進新書發表會的會場。 「男朋友嗎？」 「不再是了。」 「那麼....簽名會結束後，妳有空嗎？」 「只要你有空，我隨時都有空。」她笑著說。

麥斯威爾咖啡的廣告曾說：「 再忙也要和你喝杯咖啡。」 現在我們的生活是處於忙碌狀態，但是你是否忘了你的另一半呢？

HP6 - Harry Potter & the Half-Blood Prince

So, i'm back...

and 3 wks after it has officially released!? I've finally finished HP6 tonite - yeah, long waited...

so much on the mind now - yet I'm glad that I finished reading it AT HOME and not somewhere in public - "going" to the funeral is like going to A REAL ONE and I just think Rowling doesn't need to put it in such a way - a way that is WAY TOO SAD I think. I don't think it's for kids anymore. I still want to read something that is "live happily and ever after"... sure I hope book 7 will have a better ending (although I think Harry will die to end the story as a whole)....

I think one more part that I feel very touched *other than having a "friend" gone* - is the friendship among Ron, Herminone & Harry. They spend like 5 yrs together (their 6th yr this book)... they started as stranger - just sharing the same compartment in the Hogwart Express.. then pretty much just grow up together, with numerous occasions (of "life & death"), and become such close buddies... but eventually, as in Book 6, you can see their "diverse" life - and eventually, giving out hints, that, Harry, will go on his own in Book 7...

SAD, but so true in reality...

sigh, life is already tough, I HATE reading books that is "realistic"!!!!!!!
