崇拜慳D

Woke up at noon, I fed myself with over ten movie trailers from Apple.com. 我快要營養不良喇!

Then, I went to the newly opened cafe outside my apartment. I had a cup of milk tea and beef noodle, along with the latest issue of "Milk". I rushed to load my brain with the words I scanned through my eyes. I am too hungry for spiritual food after five days of junk.

Saturday is the best day in a week.

Just like a 40-year-old would no longer be able to hear the high pitch ring tone (test if you are young enough to hear). Everyone has the hearing ability to such pitch since they were born. The ability is then gone as it has not been used. After reading about this, I am scared that I might no longer be creative if I keep suppressing my ideas as they pop up at my work cubicle.

One day, I would be satisfied with producing "can painting" (罐頭油畫).

Remark: about the topic, yes, it is irrelevant to my article.

Contradictions

Waiting at comestic counter in one of the highest traffic department stores, among the people mountain people sea, a familar feeling striked me. It reminded me of the uneasy yet aspiring feeling when I was waiting for him at Suntec last August.

Remote yet close; strange yet familar; distant yet intimate. The contradictions just amplify consciousness in life.

伊華水果棉花糖

One of my many additions. I saw them available at Jason's in Taipei. I happily bought one pack and almost finished it the same night.

Savasana

It is the final relaxation posture in a yoga session. That is my favourite and the whole point for the 90 mins long yoga practise. During savasana tonight, I passed out. It felt so good and I haven't had such relaxation for a long time.

Love Paris

It sounds lame to say "I love Paris". Well, I do.

I only made one comment "I think Paris is a nice city", the couple besided me bladded their way down the escalator, saying "oh, I have been to Paris for so many times but I never find it beautiful. I think New York is better."; "How come everybody love Paris? Everybody says Paris is nice but I never share that." Well... I kept quiet. I didn't want to let them know that I thought the comments they made just reflected how shallow they were. Too shallow to accept differences of others.

While the city appeared on the theatre screen, I had an idea. I want to make Paris as another familiar city as Taipei, Singapore, Hong Kong or Tokyo to me.

成功與失敗

Here I am talking about life.

Is it for others to judge if you live a successful life or not? What are the "criteria" for a successful life? Fame, money, love, health, knowledge? If a person got one of the above yet has forgone the rest, is this person leading a successful life? Is the result more important than the process?

Well, these are philosophical questions.

Life is not perfect

To me, knowing the fact that life could not be perfect is a bit disappointing. I can do nothing but to accept. Also, everyone has their issues in life. 從表面來看, 只是我看你好, 你看我好.

可以做的只有把自己的做好, 向目標前進.

random thoughts

Many weird dreams recently. They are so stranged that can't be explained.

A lot have happened around me. Yeah, they didn't happen to me, but around me. I was witnessing all these as a third person. Seemed like watching people riding on roller coaster. Wedding, new job, passing exam, vacation, receiving flowers...

Life is not the same for me. New hair style brings new life, new glasses, new shoes and new bag.

The weather is getting cooler. Autumn reminds me it is a new round of life in Taipei. It is my favourite time of the year.

Together with my sister, I would like to show my gratitude to our father. He is working very hard for the best of his two beloved daughters.

The desire to advance is still strong, yet the timetable is slightly adjusted. It is for the better.

Strategist

According to the result of the BBC 'What Am I Like?' personality test, I am a Strategist: Spontaneous (rather than Plan); Ideas (rather than Fact); Head (rather than Heart); Introvert (rather than Extrovert).

Summary of Strategists:
  • Quiet, easy-going and intellectually curious
  • Use logical, objective thinking to find original solutions to problems
  • Think of themselves as bright, logical and individualistic
  • May be impractical, forgetting practical issues, such as paying bills or doing the shopping
Do the test and tell me your personality.

沒有營養的雞勒

吃呀吃, 吃啊吃
沒有營養便不會胖,
放心吃吧.

吃兩個月雞勒, 換法國大餐, 多吃一點唷!!!

Today - a turning point


New haircut, new life.

Major shopping. Shoes, jackets, knit, shirt, pants, cosmetics, snacks, etc. Cost me a few grants.

New timetable. A jumble 9 weeks plan! If I have no faith in myself, who does?

Fear

My days are short. Each last for 12 hours with breaks in between.
This is an escape. An escape from finding the answer, from the fear.
What if letting everything status quo? Nothing is wrong.

I cannot look into my eyes in the mirror.

One failure decided my fate? Just one failure.
I do not owe anyone any answer. If I do, I owe it to myself.

By end of next week, I will find myself two.

Tired...

7 years. I am damn tired about it.

Norah Jones

On airport express, I have an urge for Norah Jones' jazz. Turn on my white machine and had the headset plugged into my ears, I was brought back in time... Back to the Norah Jones concert on 27th Feb 2005. I could feel my shoulder was rubbing against that of my neighbour...

With my eyes closed, I could feel the light running outside the train window.

My clock always has the same problem. Both the hour and minute arms are turning anti-clockwise occassionally...
