  • Photo Opt

    2009-02-21 10:31PM / 標準BLOG

    I went to "Nam Sang Wan" (I think that's the name) today with my colleagues. The place is really far by HK's measurements (by my measurements anyway). I needed to take the MTR/KCR to Tai Wai (up one station from Kln Tong - that's a 50 minute ride) and then on a car (someone drove) for about 40 minutes before we get there.

    What were we doing?

    We were taking photos! Yeah... photo taking session with the nature as backdrop. Everybody had a bag of clothes to change in and out of. Hohoho...

    Some of the photos turn out to be looking quite cool! I haven't got them yet, but you betcha it'll look like those magazine ads. Hehehh..

    Anyway, the Academy Awards are almost here. And with all that Oscar fever, here's an interesting blogthings' quiz. I thought I'd get "You would win Best Editing" but apparently not..

    You Would Win Best Actor / Actress
    You are confident and talented. When it's time for you to shine, you step up.
    You have a strong personality. You love attention, and you can command an audience of any size.

    You tend to be a bit obsessive. You're the perfect person to immerse yourself in a big role.
    You're both empathetic and expressive. You understand and communicate well.



    Not very accurate I'd say. But heck, just do it for fun :P
  • I want to get married. Now.

    So, V-day was yesterday.. oops, I kinda missed it.. hahahaha.. Well.. Happy Belated V-day to all you singletons and... coupletons...?

    Anyways, congratulations on my sister who has a great V-day surprise :D heheheee. Her status is now not single anymore.

    Of course I'm envious! Hahaha!

    Especially after I go to facebook and all I see is pictures of couples' weddings (many of my classmates)/ pre-weddings (Cecilia, Tsuiyee), honeymoon trips (Diane, Anthony), and home-made chocolates/ flowers (the other survivors). Hahaha.. And I'm happy for them all~! And yet I dream of one day going through the same romantic steps.

    No, I don't dream. I'm ACHIEVING. Yea... I'm going to get married. Sooner rather than later. Whichever way its going to be. Of coz with a man I love. Heh-heh-heh.. Wish me luck!

    Aaaaannywayyyyy enough of my pointless rambles. Back to the long promised pics of Taiwan. I've uploaded them on my facebook.. and was too lazy to link them up here.. so what i do is to do a 'printscreen' on my mac.. and post those snapshots up here instead.   


          
    That's the Taipei 101. And the Ice cream 010. And then that's me in a bunch of PINK flowers.
     
    Watch out. The pink fever is coming, and its gotten Emily already!



    My sister brought us to the flower place (forgot the name) and Ying Ge to make our own porcelain products and buy the Ocarina.


    And other places include Xi Men Ding (where we saw Lee Hom) and other night markets..

    There you go, our short 4 day trip to Taipei, Taiwan :D.

    I got my  taiwan photos :D
    And here's a sneak peek...

       
    Those balloons say it all.

    Meanwhile, another great post from the great Mraz:

    Our minds can play mean tricks on us, so it is important not to identify with any of that potential & hazardous thought up there. Evil thoughts such as, “I’m not good enough,” “I’m too tired or high strung for that” Or worse, “I’m ugly” can create ourselves as exactly those thoughts. Instead, embrace that you at this very moment are perfect. Affirm to your Self, “I am fucking Awesome!”  The culmination of billions of years of evolution has created this moment with you in it – and quite a lucky star you are to experience all this.

    Did you ever stop to think that the Universe decided to have a (insert your name) experience? It isn’t the other way around. You, whoever you think you are, can’t heal your bones. You don’t make your heart beat. You don’t have to sit and think about making your food digest. If you have a child, you aren’t the one inside it making it tick and commanding it to grow. The Universe is at work in so many wonderful ways, and it doesn’t stop just because we begin to think we know everything in the adult system. Hell, everything we know is just a story that we’ve made up to help us organize this reality anyway. And since it’s only a story – feel free to change it at any time.

    Oh.. I went to Fanling on another walk with the HK Leisurely walks and Emily
     
  • Quick stop

    This is a quick entry before my next long entry about the CNY at the village (lots of photos, that is). Yes.. i skipped on the taiwan trip.. coz i still haven't got my photos yet..

    Anyway, i went hiking to the Peak up to Pokfulam yesterday with the HK Leisurely Walks group from facebook. Didn't take many photos, but we passed the Pokfulam reservoir.. and it was pretty!

    Oh btw, I'm having "sciatica" -- lower back pains caused by the compression of my spine bones. Yikes!!

    The doctor said wait for the x-ray report.. do more exercises.. don't sit too much..  try swimming.. and medicine.. I hope the walks will help heal the problem :S


    This is the reservoir, next we went to the School of Film & TV of the HK Academy of Performing arts. It used to be a church.

       
    This is a rough panorama photo i put together on photoshop..

    The middle window is doubled becoz i was lazy to clean it up.. :P

    Then afterwards, I made dinner :P

    Boiled ham with chinese lettuce and onion cubes = Healthy burger :D

    And today I saw this beautiful ad! (even better than the australia ad) So touching..
