Looking for my heartbeat...

At 1/1000 second, I heard my heartbeat since a long time...
And everything then returns to normal.

Simply my build-in suppressor was activiated unconsciously.

三過家門而不入

In the past, I always heard people saying that having business trip to here and there around the world, but haven't been to anywhere but airport, cab stands, hotel and office.

It was hard to believe til I experienced myself. Heart broken...

Gte Carrie away

Just came back from the Sex and the City movie. It is a gift to a SATC fan like me. What is better than sitting in front of the big screen, watching two and a half hours of prolonged episode after the finale four years ago with no commercial break at all?

Sitting at the theatre, resting my feet on the chair in lotus position, I enjoyed through out the movie. Seeing Carrie, Miranda, Samantha and Charlotte, I felt like meeting my old friends after years, longing to know what's going on with them. So touchy. Mom who was watching as well couldn't understand why Mong and I were tearing like hell thoughout.

I don't mind watching the movie again, just as I was repeating the TV episodes for lost count of times. And the wardrobe was just amazing.

Ritz Calton

Ritz Singapore is my favourite hotel.

I always enjoy appreciating its flower decorations everywhere. The Chihuly Lounge was where 5pf and I exchanged a lot of thoughts back in my Singapore days. The Sunday champagn brunch at Greenhouse was just one heavenly serving.

The rooms are just luxurious and pampering.

End of Grey's Season 4

and got to wait til fall for the next season.

My tears are not dried yet...

Response to Poles Apart

I think 5pf shares the same view about preparing a gift for your love ones is a bless. Especially when the receiver appreciated as what it is.

well, pre-birthday present is just a name. We both know, even we are poles apart... the heart and thought for each other just eliminate the physical distance. It's a two-way traffic.... takes two to clap...

It has been 3 years we were apart.

My Favourite Magazine

After being away from home for 5 years, I would never take it for granted to having a newstand around the corner where freshly published magazines are lying there like a buffet meal.

Each weekend, I am trying to squeeze some solo time, sitting there under the natural sunlight, reading my magazines over a freshly brewed coffee. On flight (flying C without boss) is also a very good time to absorb the essence of magazines.

Here is a list of my favourite magazines: -

Ming Pao Weekly - book B : 沒有八卦, 只有娛樂/玩樂。新知, 潮流, 奢華, 科技, 所有敗家的。
Milk : bible to keep myself young
iMoney : 精讀一週財經。順便貼堆心水。
HK Mag : 勝在免費, 有expat feel, 吃喝玩樂。响星加坡都會睇SG Mag.
Jet Magazine : 有明報book B嘅影子, 不過衰在太重。 最喜歡是有一陣子在機場有賣細版, HKD15.
City Magazine : 型人既標志。又貴又大本。仲記得細個响大表哥(Yuppies 代表) 個房見過。最近反而有趣睇「生活」, 中國版號外。

MUSE

She is not with me recently, therefore the entries are getting less and less frequent. The temporary departure of "her" might not be a bad thing.

She is the emotional, sentimental me.

Investment and reading

These are the themes of this weekend.

Investment - time for me to take up the responsibility to manage the "fund". It is going to be my part-time job.

Reading - mostly magazines.

No. 2477

發乎情 止乎禮

偶然總比刻意來得有意思。

在糢糊與清醒之間, 彷彿看見你從人群中冒出來。
心裹很希望這不是夢。

別離時那緊緊的擁抱, 已替代了千言萬語。

Prepare for retirement

I am working hard to grow my money.

他說...
你不要死, 你死了誰來陪我玩?

Law of Attraction

Agyness Deyn is my new favourite.

天各一方

我承認都是貪玩之過, 就這樣賠上了十年的友誼。
他認為心照不宣比較酷, 可惜我們未能達成共識。
可能發生的根本毫無原因, 沒有解釋。

最後, 我倆獨自對坐, 四目交投, 無言以對。

"但假如有一日 我地真係喺路上面偶然咁撞倒
我地會點下頭 問候一下 然後已經唔知講乜好"

"You have to kiss a lot of frogs, before you find a prince"

Quoted from 3M Corporate slogan.

琉璃屋裡孤獨的薔薇

淚水一串串在他臉上流着, 實在叫我心痛鼻酸。
我一邊伸手替他擦眼淚, 一邊告訴他不要緊。
一切都心照不宣。要說的最後還是說了。
道出的是超乎想像的孤寂。
無力地抱着他哭, 我恨我也只是個軟弱的女子。

哭過了, 生活還是要繼續。
再高的牆都爬過, 沒有什麼可怕。
我倆背後彷彿都長出了翅膀。

練到贏

This is the latest slogan of Nike's ad. I caught it when I was on the cab in Beijing city and it is motivating!

I am reminded, I was once an athlete as well... where have my sportmenship gone?

Once, the movie

So, if you want something
And you call, call
Then I'll come running
To fight, and I'll be at your door

"When your mind's made up"

Are you really here or am I dreaming
I can't tell dreams from truth
or it's been so long since I have seen you
I can hardly remember your face anymore

"If you want me"
:
:

What tweaked me was the helplessness and the imperfection in life. Lives become more complicated as we grow old. Lots of responsibilities are to be shouldered and things are not as straight forward. Desire is not necessarily be satisfied. It's a matter of worthiness...

The girl said "It sounds interesting, but it is just worthless"... Practicality kills the desire. I feel sad.

So we talk

at least we faced it together.
