The Covenant

The colleagues were so excited at the window. When they saw rain and sun appeared together, they looked forward for the rainbow. After a few minutes, there was the rainbow. I went to the window myself without hesitation.

What a beautiful rainbow, from the sky, bowing down to the trees. This is the visualization of the Covenant between God and the earth. I said a little prayer, remembering God will never destroy His own creation, the human flesh.

As I really do have some frustration about things happened lately, I thanked God for being here with me, carrying me up upon His shoulder, lightened my burden. Be strong girl.

Yesterday, wanna scream of excitement.
Last night, wanna scream of frustration.
Today, wanna scream of Loving God.
Thanks rainbow.



Rainbow


'When I bring clouds over the earth and the bow is seen in the clouds, I will remember my covenant which is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh; and the waters shall never again become a flood to destroy all flesh. When the bow is in the clouds, I will look upon it and remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is upon the earth." God said to Noah, "This is the sign of the covenant which I have established between me and all flesh that is upon the earth." ' Genesis 9:14-17

Sweet Paul

It was essential to drop a few lines for today's lunch.

My colleague, Paul, had some "wai shan" in his soup last night. Then he remembered that I like wai shan very much. He saved up some pieces and brought it to lunch for me. It was really sweet of him to make the hassle. He's such a fantastic brother.

Thanks again Paul

Fantastic weekend

Even though this is a long week for me, I had a very nice weekend.


Thursday night was Karaoke night from the courtesy of our former coach. His birthday celebration brought us to a K dinner buffet and a night of crazy singing. If there's a day off on Friday, I will definitely stay till 3am to push the craziness to max.


Friday night right after work, I met Wollo in front of the changing room. Coincidently, he had dinner plans with friends that night. That's why we walked around MK together to wait for our own events ~ 7pm. We talked alot, about the crushes that I had lately, including mine on others, and others on me. Had a great conversation and found out that, this colleague really does care about me. Thanks so much Wollo!


This night was followed by Volleyball match at the HK stadium, China vs Thailand. It was such a astonishing gamed played by Thailand in the first set. Their plays and pace of the game made the tall Chinese team seamed useless. Then GiGi and I went to McDonalds for desserts, had great talks as well. Thanks so much GiGi!


It was work day on a Sat morning. With the help of Paul, we finished all the work on time and had time to mobilize my shoulder in addition. Paul is such a nice bro to me. I told him about my ex and my crushes before. He always gives useful advice and tries to make me feel comfortable about what happens. Thanks Paul!!


Sat afternoon involved volunteering work at the Oxfam trailwalker. We, as PTs, assisted the speaker to teach stretching exercise for the walkers. Nothing too special happened, but I enjoyed.


Sat night was once again a crazy gurls night out. I have to say it again... God I LOVE DANCING!!!! Love the music, love the atmosphere, love the elegant drinks.

WHAT A WEEKEND eh?

The act of loving

If you remember the act of loving, is an act of giving instead of receiving, you will feel so much better about life and yourself.

Now that you have someone in mind that you wanna love, try to love this person dearly and tenderly with care. Never ask for any return. Nothing may happen but at least you spread your love from the botton of your heart.

Be strong

To the soul of my dearest Baby Chiara,

You have to be strong at all times.

It's a fact that life is gonna be difficult. This can never be changed. Therefore, in order to cope with it, you have to be strong, be stronger than you think. Be tough, don't give up, don't let go easily. Do whatever to help yourself not to fall easily.

Even though you are alone, you should always have faith in yourself. You should have confidence. Because beauty and confidence only appear in pairs, glow upon people.

You are a professional. You need to carry positive attitude to people in need. That's your role. So do not let yourself to fall easily. NOT allowed.

I know what happened to you. You fall in love with someone but once again, nothing happened, like the many other times. Totally understood. That's why I am writing to you, telling you to be strong and courageous, even though you are alone. Get it?

Wish Granny was here...

It was my dad's big night tonight. Because of his 60th birthday, everybody in the room gathered to celebrate. Hope everybody had a great night. Not sure what I should feel, probably worked too hard that I am tired and hungry. But it's okay, as long as everything ran smoothly.

Uncle 2 got drunk. And for those moments he expressed his true feelings. He said the only sad thing tonight was that, grandma was not with us. I should feel ashamed cos I haven't thought of grandma for the whole night. When I heard those words, I almost dropped my tears. That's how much he missed Grandma, and how much I missed Grandma. Wish Grandma was here physically. But even though she wasn't here, I knew she's always with us, deep in our hearts, no one can erase her from our memories. Thanks Grandma for being the centre of the unity in this family. Because of her, we become bro and sis. Love you forever Grandma!

Carribean cruise in HK

THIS is the feeling of escaping from home! It was greeeeeat!!! Courtesy to Uncle 6 and his family. They invited me to this Hong Kong Regal Airport hotel for the buffet and staying overnight.


The buffet was an experience. The Carribean theme granted me the chance of Greek, Italian and Spanish food again. I honestly cannot recall the number of olives I had. It was just amazing. The Greek setting imitated the cruise, feels like floating in the ocean. The fillet, Spanish sauce, mustard, Greek salad..etc all of my favourites. Love all that. Taking a European trip for my stomach, it enjoys much.


Heading to the hotel room, it was the smell of clean sheets. Even though I broke that stocker at shower, the bathroom was still very amazing. Waking up in the morning at 6:10am, watching the breaking dawn over the airport runway, I felt charged, so full of energy. Even though I only had 6 hours of sleep, the quality made it all. From this moment, I finally understand how much that I dislike double decker bed. Felt like a trap, trapping the energy.


Walking out of the hotel room, heading to the bus station, I needed to walk pass the airport. Going to the airport gave me a feeling of travelling aboard. The relaxing mood rose again and I walked confidently down the hallway. Travelling aboard. I love. The next station is ... ... Greece.


Found the bus which took me to Mongkok. It was a single decker bus. Sitting at the window of it, watching the view of our gigantic bridge of ChingMa, I am Invincible!!! It took only ~40 minutes to get to MK.


Here I am, back to KH, full of energy. What a refreshing night! And found out that I really need to get out of the house from time to time. It was great to get away from home. Great!

My moomin

Fell in love with moomin because of him. I went to his office today.

On his birthday, I sent him a message, wishing him all the best for the upcoming year. Then he gave me a call the next day but I missed the call because of volleyball. The only reason that I could think of is, he's finally willing to find out who on earth sends birthday blessings every year. BUT he didn't dare to call again.

Today, I knew he was looking at me, even though I was talking to his colleague. I just knew. Turning my head to take a glance on him, his bright smile shined on his face. In my head, "Did you know 't was me? Did you know? Do you know?" Guess it's not important no more, cos you weren't willing to find out. Still love the way he stares at me, remains caring and sincere as it was 10 years ago. It hasn't changed a bit ever since we met. We got on the same bus on our way home. We said our goodbye. He gave me the last smile when he turned for the stairs. It was great.

It has been more than 10 years, before I left Hong Kong. I am sure the feeling is not exactly the same anymore. But then I came to see him everytime I visited HK. Now that I base in here, I visit every 6-7 months, like seeing the doctor. It's like a habitual thing. It's not like I am hoping for anything to happen, it's just I don't wanna give up having excuses to see him.

The stage of depression... again

I did not intend to make this an emotional entry. Therefore, I am just gonna to state the fact and make it short.

Mom has been babbling around lately. Honestly, I wanted to avoid her because she always says the wrong thing at the wrong time. She accused me of not paying her on time and requested to pay her back from September. ALL BS! I paid her absolutely more than two times. Then she asked me if I am dating, or if I needed any help. My tears was just uncontrollably dropped. Felt palpitation from the centre of the heart, I definitely needed a breath. So I went out to the pier, took my time to have a good cry. The grocery store was my destination for my stress relief.

People always say that I am beautiful, nice, caring, sincere... blah blah blah.. my patients said whoever has you is very lucky.. blah blah blah... Very flattering, but I am still single. So either the people around me lie, or something wrong with me.

Chatting with a guy friend online, after he expressed the same thing as everybody told me, he asked .. so why exactly don't you have a bf? I wanted to yell so bad "HOW ON EARTH AM I SUPPOSED TO KNOW????" Then I calmed down and told him about the married people around me... those BS... really shitty.

Sigh.. whatever... hopefully I can get out of this mood soon... fast....

His confession

That Aussie guy reappeared again. We have been chatting online once in a while. I have to admit that I start to develop feelings for him. Thinking of him on and off, thinking about what would happen if we actually meet each other in real life. Last night, he told me the same thing. Glad to hear that he thinks of me as well. The sweetest thing is that, he would have fallen in love with me if we ever spent time together. The IF word again. Hate that! I would've fallen for him too.

Not only once I heard patients' compliment on me. They said, you are such a warm hearted girl; you are very nice; your husband is very lucky. At that moment, I almost drop my tears, wanted to say that, may be there's no lucky guy in this planet. Feel very sad indeed.

The other night, I dream about my grandma. She was very happy giving out medals. She awarded those who got married with medals. I was super happy to see her, but just sat there receiving no medal........

Love dancin

Went to a bar last night with Gigi. Had a great time even though we couldn't get into a club. We went to a bar called Zinc. There was a cute bartender, offering us two shots :)

After a while, we hit the dance floor. There were girls getting up on the stage for some pole dancing. They were sooooo HOT!!! Honestly I don't have the guts to do that. It was so weird. Gigi and I were surrounded by loads of guys last night. Gigi was so shy. Hehe. A German bought us drinks, very gentleman of him. Then a Holland guy started to dance with us. But my eyes were trying to look for some black guys :p This is probably because.... of Dudley. Don't know how he's doing right now. Hopefully he's still enjoying his job as a coach and being suscessful in his career in 110m hurdles. I really did love him. He's the most adorable black guy I have ever met, the first black guy I dated.

Love loud music. Love dancing! LOVE DANCING!!!!!

Friday, May 28, 2010

Back on the dance floor

Haven't gone clubbing in ages. Finally, I got a chance to go with a vball friend. It was okay at the very beginning when there were just the two of us. We chatted about our team, and also what to expect in the club.

When we arrived Central, her friends came. They started to talk like Charlotte, pretty annoying. Thing got better when I got in the club. I knew last night was not my night cos I kinda get into a position where there were no available guys around. That's why I tried hard to dance. The music rocks and my body shakes with the rhythm. A guy put his arms around my waist at the beginning. I couldn't even see his face, so I kinda neglected him. (Honestly I regret after what happened later) There was another guy around. A friend thought he was interested in me but I really doubted it. She even put his hand at my waist. He still didn't make his move. He didn't leave as well because he knew it would make me feeling uncomfortable.

Somehow, a short white t shirt guy with glasses tried to get close to me. I was like.... i've got to run. Some people passed by, and I saw a cute caucasian, run towards him without hesitation. He's from an exchange student from Paris, France. Cute and good looking, I spent the rest of the night dancing with him. Hot and sexy dance with kisses. He sent me a message after the night, that he loves the way I dance.

Honestly, I love the way I dance too. Enjoyed it so much. God I love dancing!!!

Moment of awakeness

Cannot believe it's May already! Time flies by too fast! TOOOOOOO fast!




Even though my life is as plain as water right now, sigh....., I do have something fun to share. Just wanna remember the conversation between my patient and I today.




He is a sleeping beauty. Being unconscious all day, I was probably the only person who could wake him up because of the uncomfortable procedure --- Suctioning and Cough stimulation!




His last name was the same as one of our historical warrior thats why we all called him by the warrior's name. Suddenly he woke up after my cough stimulation cos he thought I was gonna kill him. He seriously looked at me and requested me to explain what the heck I was doing there. A relative from another bed helped to explain and he's like shhhhh... there is a third person in the room..... (I was like... okay...)




At the same time, the BP monitoring was beeping. He yelled, "There is the sound of telecom." "This is the evil sound. Please may I beg you, do not make the sound of the devil. Make the sound of kindness and generosity. Stop killing! Rescue the people. Now I am going to rescue the people."




And there, he fell asleep again. The nurse couldn't even catch the moment to feed him a drink.




Then I thought, may be this is what he wanted from the bottom of his kind heart.

Naive

Remember I mentioned about a guy from Melbourne, that we met online. And it was a pity that I didn't get the chance to meet him when he was in Hong Kong? We chatted a little online, and found out he was an interesting person.

Then he disappeared from msn for a week.

After a week, I finally realized, that he will never appear online again on my list. Because everything happened was simply a lie. Besides the fact that he broke his leg and arm, he did not expose anything about himself.

Thanks to the convenience of technology, you can always find something when you search online. He told me that he studied Economics at University but he's actually in computer. His name was actually not Nick at all, nothing close to nick. I suspected that he's not even from Melbourne.

What a COLD cruel world!

Plastercast

There is always a first time for everything. This time, it's meeting people online. I was very nervous and being very cautious. Met this guy called Nick. I wouder if he is osteoporotic as he broke his upper limb needed fixation from above elbow to thumb, and he broke his lower leg required a long leg POP.

He is an Aussie who came to HK for his research for the past 6 months. He returned back to Melbourne at the moment. Therefore, we actually had never met but chatted a coupla times online. For some "unknown" reasons, I really wish we could have a chance to meet each other indeed. Felt very comfortable talking to him and sometimes he blew me with roses and kisses. That was very sweet of him.

However, he has been disappearing these coupla days though. Kinda miss him... :(

What a lazy April!

As stated in the title, this is a lazy month for my blog. However, there were a lot of things going on in life this month. Found out that I didn't have time to stop for my lovely journal. This will be quite disappointed as I am an inspirational individual, like to express my thoughts all the time, through words, gestures and body languages.

To summerize, this month started with the beginning of the Acupuncture course. As one of the class representatives of the course, I felt like carrying a lot of responsibilities. Guess this is the result of having 50% off from the course fee.

Started dancing classes. God I love dancing! I cannot express the joy that I have from dancing in words. My core and limbs move with the music. It's like I dissolve myself in the rhythm. It was extremely amazing! Only wish I could dance better to make the best move ever :) sooooo much fun!

Played so much volleyball this month since both the HA league and HKVB league started this month. In addition to the regular training, I almost played 3 times a week which I already excluded the recreational ones. Had down time over volleyball at the beginning of the month, but as my teammates gave me so much support, my confidence built up again. WE will FIGHT till the END of GAME!!!!!!

SSG course at QEH on April 18th, 2010.

ASG biennual meeting, someone talked about hypnotherapy. The speaker mentioned that religious ppl are more likely to be hypnotized. Thought I was hypnotized during the process. At one moment, I was totally relaxed. Then all of a sudden, my heart trembled, my tear glands started to produce the respective secretion. Don't know what it is. My explanation would be, I probably felt very lonely at the very moment, and getting scared. Well, no one will give me a proper answer, but I am scared.

Almost the end of April.... Happy birthday Gabe and Anne Cheung!!

Clinical Management of Shoulder Knee & Ankle

You thought I am really gonna talk about the Management of shoulder knee and Ankle.

Wrong! Besides the knowledge I gained from the workshop this day, it's all about the crush that I mentioned before. Before leaving the house, I thought there was a 50% chances of meeting him this day.

As I arrived, and there he was. Remember I said after two nights of good vball, I recovered already. Had to give complement to myself that I did pretty well in our conversation, until he made a joke "may be I am very aware of you!" I smiled. What the heck is he doing? He has a girl and why is he flirting with me?

Then Isaac arrived, we chatted a little. We joked around as usual, that guy was around too. He also laughed at my jokes and he naturally slided his palm along my hair. Pretending nothing happened is one of my strength in life. God I am good at that.

Well, if I really thought this was nothing, this entry won't be existed. Having a lot of question marks in my mind. Wondering what the heck he is doing with me......

Saturday, March 13, 2010

Recovery

Think I recover better than I thought. Shouldn't be scared of seeing you again.

Just because I played some good volleyball two nights in a row, which helped me to drain most of the W-related negative energy.

I am good.

Still waiting......





Almost nobody calls me Lai Lai anymore, but I still love this name. My name is Lai Lai :p

To help myself

I do not want to see you again anytime soon.

Hope this is the right thing to do.

A heart breaking birthday

After all these years, I trained not to remind myself of my birthday anymore. Because when you know that you are still gonna be spending this "special" day by yourself, things can only turn more pathetic if you echo this over and over again.

Stupid me, after I found out that my closest friends did not actually recall this day, as usual, I was kinda of disappointed, which I should've known better, calling up Paul for ice-cream was the only thing I wanna do besides the crying. That's why I met up with him after work. He took me out to the Century Plaza for desserts. Thank God he spent time with me to keep me accompanied. We ordered a dish of sweet potato toasts and a coffee sundae. They were the most delicious food ever occurred on earth :) Somehow, he asked me if I knew Willis. Of course I know him, the guy who shares a lot of common hobbies with me; the guy who teaches me a lot in clinical skills; the guy who is very caring and considerate.

The more we talked about him, the more I wanted to see him. At the same time, Mav called me up if I wanna get some desserts with him. I chose to meet him up at PolyU so that I MAY have a chance to see Willis. Later I found out that he didn't have class tonight. So anyway, Mav and I took the 112 bus to CWB to get desserts. Guess who I saw on the bus? The familiar and warm face that I saw...... with a girl. My heart sank to the lowest point of the earth but the smile was still hanging on the anterior surface of the mindless skull.

A little chat on the bus. Then I went back to Mav. Honestly, I didn't even know what was it about Mav in our conversation, about his job, his study, his vacation.. whatever. I heard nothing and talked nonsense.

Should I thank God for meeting him on this special day? Thank God for letting me put on a little make up before meeting him?

Should I be upset that my dream's completely broken? Should I be happy to be waken up from the silly dream?

Don't know if it's because I had desserts for the whole night, my body, mind and heart feel very empty.

A heart breaking birthday like this one, truly the first time.

What's next? Receiving your wedding invitation?

It's March

Dinner with a friend one night, I told her about switching team from orthopaedics to RMD. It is going to be wonderful but it may take time for me to pick up the usual routine of work. That's why I would most like to stay behind and study the cases and stuff.

She goes, "Monika, you are so hard working. But you can only tell friends about these things. It will be such a turn off for guys as they will think that you are a difficult gal to deal with."

What have I done wrong?

It's March again. Is it going to be fun one? Or a lonely one? Honestly, nevermind.... Gimme a coupla days more to fool myself.

Standard Chartered Marathon

Shit it was already 2am, I was still sitting in front of the computer. The Citybus nor the New bus had any additional buses for the convenience of the marathon. I was supposed to get up at 4am, 4:30 the latest for the physiotherapy work at the Victoria Park. Left the house at 5am, saw a taxi, tried to hop on, unfortunately there were tones of people who were hoping to get on a taxi as well. I walked over to another station looking for a better chance. There was a man with his daughter. My braveheart told me to ask him if I could tag along, he agreed. There you go, I got there on time, without paying a penny. Such a kind father!

Isaac, Willis and I travelled to the 39K checkpoint for physio service. It was my honour to be selected for this checkpoint. Thanks Willis number 1.

He bought each of us a bottle of coke for the shitty weather. Thanks Willis number 2.

It wasn't a busy station, so we had lots of time to enjoy the running atmosphere at the flyover, and photo taking. Thanks Willis number 3.

Cases came along when we were enjoying our time. Willis took the opportunity to teach us physiotherapy practical skills and reinforce our critical thinking (my weakest). Thanks Willis number 4.

After a coupla hours, we came back to our largest station for clearing up the line up and packing. Willis allowed me to tag along back to PolyU. Thanks Willis number 5.

When we got back to PolyU, all the materials were allocated back to where they belong to. Simon and Ella tried to buy us lunch. He tried to rescue BeiBei and I from the lunch even though it wasn't sucessful. Thanks Willis number 6.

He gave me two more packs of Isotonic drinks from his bag. He probably just wanted to get rid of those but they turned out to be my drink of survival during the match at night. Thanks Willis number 7.

What else can I say about you Willis :) Look forward to seeing you again, hopefully soon.

2 days to RMD, last day at RB

I felt your pain and anger at the lunch meeting. Also dislike the feeling of having other people to control your life. If one can put themselves into other people's shoes, they know that you really need what you desire. So I agree with you, SCREW the people who only think about themselves!!!!

Thank you for staying over till late with me, helping me out whenever needed. Thank you for your encouragement at all times. You are such a nice brother. I will miss you. At our last sight, I almost ran over to give you a hug. But you may feel weird, thats why I waved only... so gay. Anyway.... you know the way I feel.

Left KH at 9pm that night. AM nurses came back for the N shift, I was still there. Pretty funny. Hopefully I didn't leave any shit behind for you guys.

Last day at RB........... So loooooooong.

3 days to RMD

I knew you guys love my treat! Sweet soup from the designated store. GREAT! Grazie ppl for all the kind help!

Today, I started to pack up my stuff to RMD. YOU told me that besides your wife I am the first girl who made you to have feelings for. Even though you added some sense of humour in there, I knew it was true. And I was flattered. Love the way we interact because we are very close, yet distant. We trusted each other and we talked like sis and bro. Will love you and your tummy always BIG BRO!

3 days to RMD ... ... it's okay to miss me a little, but not too much :P

Wednesday, February 24, 2010

4 days to RMD

It's probably because I knew I am going to switch team soon, I am becoming more efficient these days. Theoretically, orthopaedic and medical cases are not supposed to be a challenge anymore! HA! Because I am WELL trained....... not.... of course there is always more knowledge to learn.

I am gonna miss the nurses who I work closely with. They are being very helpful sometimes, especially in forcing my kids down to the gym. It took time to blend in their culture, but I eventually did it.

After work, I had a strong desire to get some new lingerie, well bra. There was a shopping mall beside the stadium so I took a good look at those bras. I picked a set of red bra with undies, and another set of white ones with golden lace. It was very pretty. The pantie looked pretty sexy as well :p

Another exhausted volleyball night. Slipped and fell because of the humid ground. For the first time, I completely understood the injury mechanism of a fracture hip. I am sure if I were 40 years older than I am now, I probably would suffer from left fracture trochanter of femur, requiring Dynamic Hip screw. Painful and shitty!

4 days to RMD ... ... will miss my teammates!

Tuesday, February 23, 2010

5 days to RMD

It's like a normal working day today.

My teammate took me out for lunch. It was my favourite food, Shanghai food!!! I ate all of them, finished all the dishes on the table LOL. Paul reminded about my little tummy. Hopefully it won't turn into a big one.

Isaac told me that Willis will take us to 39K station together. Great!!

5 days to RMD............

Monday, February 22, 2010

6 days to RMD

Thought of leaving my teammates in a week, feels blue.

JP came to deliver red pocket money to us. Great!

Met Isaac after work. Learned something more about a friend's personal life. I still cannot believe what had happened, still in shock. Worried about her indeed. But I hope she is happy at least.

6 days to RMD.............. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!

Happy Birthday to AUNTIE ANGEL!!!!!!!!!

Standard Chartered Marathon Expo

COM-PLETE-LY exhausted over the weekend because I spent two entire day on this event. My legs were hurting, felt like my whole body was being punched from head to toes.

There were 4 stations: treadmill for running gait analysis; Windgate bike for anaerobic power; sit and reach for flexibility; and TrX for core stabilization exercise. Personally, I like the core stabilization exercise the most that's why I spent most of the time there. However, it was also the most tiring counter because it required a lot of physical work, including body and vocal cord. Knee pain afterwards. Still need to learn tones for gait analysis cos my knowledge is very narrow in this area.

Talked to Willis about rotating to RMD in a week. He gave me a lot of very useful advice, and taught me the way of self learning. He mentioned that I may not as lucky as other colleagues in another hospital, but if I can take the initiative to learn myself, my knowledge base will be widen for sure. Thank Willis for his great support and kind guidance. Love him a million!!

Right now, physically and mentally burned out!!!

7 days count down to RMD......

New Team

Out of the blue, my colleague reminded me about my days remaining in this team. And he seriously reminded me not to miss him. Honestly, I thought it was a reminder for himself not to miss me.

What is he talking about? There is no way I am not gonna miss him. He is such a wonderful colleague, a great brother, a caring friend.

When I thought of that, I felt blue.

Another week to go, cherish the time.

Two days ago I sent an email to Alen from Dubai. It was simply a lunar new year blessing to him because I thought of him the other day. He gave me a prompt reply the next day. It was so sweet of him. Miss him tones, wish to see him again.

New Year Resolution

Here I am again, talking about the new year resolution. This moment, I have a new definition for New Year resolution. It's not something you have to do in the upcoming year. It is some goals you set up for yourself so that you have a direction to work on. The outcome is probably not as important as the ride you take. Sometimes, it's also unexpected. Therefore, enjoying the process of getting there will be the KEY!

In this year of tiger, the stress on myself is going to increase because of some reasons. The aging process of human being is the cruelest thing that could happen on earth, which pushes you to be anxious about.... something. Anyways, I already want to scream by now.

New Year Resolution

  1. being BF positive
  2. Vacation to South East Asia
  3. Read five books
  4. Minimize the number of flaws at work
  5. Control my temper, in any situation

Again, that's it for now. May revise it later.

Nice breakfast

Love to leave a page on this day....

Because.....

I had breakfast with my favourite colleagues.

This round table included Wollo, Dimon, Paul, Humphrey and Monika.

Poor Paul sprained his ankle the night before during basketball. His left ankle was swollen like an boiled egg, with purple bruises.

Anyways....

Love y'all!!!!!!

A present from a friend

In this gloomy day, I was reluctant to wear my smile. Guys, stop being so kiddish. I am sick of that.

Out of the blue, a workman asked me if I am gonna switch team. He handed me a key chain. It was an Angel. It's Angel Gabriel. He wished the angel can follow me wherever I go.

Angel Gabriel. Reminds me of Gabe. Suddenly miss him, a lot. Still remember I enjoyed our time together back in T.O.

Sense of Humour

GOD, I just love Your sense of humor. The more I heard of it, the more I shared with others, the more laughter I earned.

It was possible that it was me who made up the whole story. But Lord, You are just fantastic. Thank You.

You showed me how much my friends love me, how nice people are to me. I love You, and I love my friends.

Thanks for Your reminder:

The most important thing in life is to LOVE, and be LOVED in return.

Farewell to Mikel

Even though our time together was short, laughter was always around us. You know it! I'll miss talking to you!

The Taiwan trip would be tasteless without you because you were the one who kept me accompanied all the time. Millions of thanks! So much fun hanging out with you. You freaking made my tummy hurt most of the time because of the stupid jokes. Well, I should also be responsible for that but you started it first!!!

Thanks so much for coming to HK although I wasn't your reason of visiting. Love our conversation because we really did have similar personality. FINE, I am mean-er but it doesn't make you a nicer guy LOL.

Take good care of yourself when I am not around. We will definitely keep in touch. Just make sure we don't run out of battery together at the same time.

Love ya always!

Great time with my friend

No matter how tired or exhausted I am right now, I HAVE to record down what happened tonight. Because the jokes are gonna help me get through difficult times when Mikel's not around.

Number ONE:
Last year when I visited Toronto, I had the worst dinner ever with some people. Then out of disappointment, I asked Mikel to pick me up aiming to rescue me from that horrible place. I started crying and just needed some time to be alone. Mikel needed to have dinner with his friends so I decided to stay in the car. However, the car was so freaking cold so I went in the restaurant to sit with his friends. As I mentioned before, I needed some time to be alone. Therefore, I took my book with me and sat at the table. The 4 of them had the dinner and I read the book, without saying a word. Mikel was questioned by his friends, "Why don't you talk to her?" Guess Mikel was the only person who knew what happened, that's why he didn't talk to me or asked anything, cos he knew I needed to be alone.

Mikel is now in Hong Kong. We plan to visit Taiwan with his friends, those 4 friends. As soon as they knew I was gonna go with them, they first time they asked Mikel was, " Oh.. I remember her... Wait..... is she gonna talk?" Mikel bursts out laughing. LOL... ya.. i could be mean and intimidating sometimes, making people freaked out.

Number TWO:

Mikel and I went out for dinner tonight. We talked about, well, guys jumping. So when will you see a guy jumping? Mikel said he basically won't jump unless he plays badminton. Ya, on badminton court, volleyball court of course, or basketball court... or any sports. Okay, how about other than sports ground? No... wait ... may be the other night I saw two gay guys "catching butterflies" at church street.

I can't help to stop laughing!!! Then I promise myself that I am gonna think of this whenever I get pissed off, until one day I say "Even two gay guys 'pok dip' at church street isn't gonna help!!!"

Number THREE:

We walked along the Avenue of stars back to SOGO. Along the way there was a sign stated "No hawking". Mikel's like, "What the hell is hawking?" You know hawkers? They sell things. Then I burst out laughing cos I thought I said "hookers" instead. We just laughed until our tummies got spasm.
