Farewell 2009 - and welcome Two Thousand and Ten

It has been a rough yr for the rest of the world for 2009, for me, a new chapter begins at the end of yr...

Thanks for those who have stand by me in the past year - no matter u only live 2 MTR stations away, or thousands miles between us, thanks for always being there when i just need a shout, and u know u're always in my heart :)

Begining of a new chapter - Christmas 2009

haven't blog for ages :P

lots of changes in the last month, house, job... Just begin a new chapter in life. Glad though, spent quite some great time with my dear friends in the last week or so.

I'm grateful for all those around me, truly. I'm thankful for those who loved me, and still loves me these days - including those who are thousands miles away. Although we may not be seeing each other as much as we want, i know deep down we're close in heart.

A new beginning, a new chapter in life... May life be good to you all, and a great year 2010 ahead~

FINE!

Task: ask one supplier to see if stock is available

Feedback: supplier said he has huge shortage and need think about it and reply tmr

===
Reporting to mgmt:


Me: He said he has to think about it and ask me to call back tmr, 不過我覺得"聞""聞" 哋...

Boss: (又開始罵) 你唔好話俾我聽 "聞""聞" 哋，人哋都未答實你你就話人哋"聞""聞" 哋，唔怪得一定無啦，有都變無啦...（下刪 XX 字）

Me: （無奈） FINE

===

請問我可以點樣處理得好 D??？

It's not that I won't follow up tmr, I just think that this is also my part to tell her what the supplier's tone.

Forget to mention - Boss is always right... Damn....

China National Holiday - 60th Anniversary - 國慶 60 年

We all got a day off today in HK for the 60th birthday for The People’s Republic of China. with someone KINDNESS to give me a *scary* wake up call early this morning @_@ I actually got a chance to watch the live military and civilian parade from Beijing.

Shame to say even after a decade I've return to HK I still haven't been a big fan / loyal to my "country" so far - esp. for the "facts" i learn from all the coverages for the recent 50 yrs Chinese history from the recent special programs. I don't really feel the "excitement" when I see the military parade, just an "observation" if u know what i mean (actually i've to confess i did fall asleep in between!) :P

I would say I really think China has improved A LOT in the last decade (and i really mean it). I do feel thankful that the recent leaders like current President Hu Jintao, or former President Jiang Zemin, are actually very "open" and I think they do contribute to today's strong China. yet it's still trouble me when I see they way they "respect" Mao Zedong thoughts and socialism...

I really have no insight for any political view, but afterall they're still a communist and ran by 1 party. It's just "creppy" on how they make the kids to perform and the way ppl don't think if u know what i mean...

It'll be interesting how the communist party carry forward for the next decade...

Movie review: The Time Traveler's Wife

Watched The Time Traveler's Wife today. I think the story is so-so (at least not a high school type of romantic story!) LOL :P The title is about the "wife" but actually the movie focus more on the "Time Traveler" - which i don't mind as Eric Bana as Henry is probably the reason keep me awake in the movie :P (he's absolutely cute and hot!! and i think he looks kinda like Fong Chung Sir! haha).

And would be a much better movie if the ending isn't a SAD one @_@...

Didn't do much after i got home from the movie. ONE BIG achievement is that Mickey Mouse is officially GONE! Thanks to the super sticky mouse glue!!! :DDD

Oh also the Renting deal in Quarry Bay "Bun Hoi" building has not concluded - i just can't give up my 4X6 bed! Oh well, just need to keep hunting i spse

and i better go to bed like RIGHT now... need to go to the Purdue vs. ND game tmr at 8 AM! (no, i'm not going to be there on time.. maybe 9!) HAHA

8 號颱風的日子。。。

so 1st day "back to work" and spse to go to DG today - but ha ha, still typhoon #8 and will likely to remain until 10 so i don't think i've to go! HAHAHAHAHAHAH

well, wait, i hope i don't have to go at 10.... hmmmmm

A note from Bangkok...

So here i am in bkk airport, just another hr before heading home. Not the firsr time to be in bkk aiport (too many transfer via bkk b4) jusr the 1sr Real leisure trip to bangkok.
Flying China airline biz class, staying in Four seasons bkk, ha, a 'luxury' package *LOL* Didn't really plan much here, just shopped a lot, at a lot, read a bit and just relax :)
The hotel isn't as grand as i expected, oh well, and bkk to me is a lot more developed than i thought haha... I don't really think i'll come back any time soon - as i prefer sunshine + beach rather than city like bkk

anyway, a nice short little getaway...

Emily, bangkok, sept 14, 13:54

today is the day w/ too many 9s *LOL*

nothing much special actually... just too many works as the PA position still haven't filled. sigh. 3 more days to bkk. can't wait (yet not ready)... sigh, need to go to DG right after i come back.. how "lucky" @_@''

looking forward to bkk trip.... lots of food... books.. and just do nothing hahaha

Dream place...

Went to see one of the flats from 星灣峰 (The Oakridge) - 38/F Flat D with top roof!

For the flat itself it's similar to 30/F except the ceiling is THIRTEEN FEET!! it's tall enough that the current owner actually made a little attic / loft in the bedroom! (but if i stay there i'll take it down such that i can enjoy the talll ceiling! The little balcony (is too little) but good place for having a cup of coffee or sth overlooking kowloon side! :D

Next went up to the roof - OMMMMMMMGGGGGGGGGGGG the view is marvelous (I should have taken picts!!!) Overlook the harbor and can see kowloon even better than the view from the flat - and when u look up u just feel so much closer to the sky (and moon) (okay, maybe b/c i've never stay as high as 38/F!)....

Alright, after talking about so much (still another millions of reason for one to love the flat) - down to the pt is the financing - of course it's totally totally out budget la @_@

At least saw the DREAM PLACE - now go back to reality and work hard *SIGH*

Hunting...

so things have been firmed and started apt hunting...

well, the thing is buying is very $$ now, so considering renting... however w/ the fact that having Elvin w/ me, wanting to stay on HK island, looking for apt that is less than 30 yrs old, size >500ft.... don't leave too much choices w/ all these criteria!!

it's just difficult either buying / renting!!

just so troublesome!! helppppppppppppppppppppppppppppp
