Dignity

A single 30 (going on 31) woman could be sensitive.

Apology

Today, someone can't wait to apologise to me on behalf of someone. Really can't wait. First of all, I wasn't offended. Secondly, I felt a bit awkward to hear such polite tone. I was quite surprise about the apology.

I wonder about the intension. 1) He worried about me being offended. 2) He worried about her upsetting me. 3) He was standing up for me. 4) He was standing up for her.

Well, afterall, with good intension, he cares about our relationship. I guess we all treasure our bonding at our little HH moments...

HH

HH has became a weekly event for the three of us since the beginning 08. Sitting next to him, I just wish the clock could tick slowly. Blew water for an hour or so, then we all headed home and rest. Get prepared for tomorrow's battle.

Fish can't live without water

and I cannot live without love

Well, I am still living today because I have the talent to romanticize anything.
A random walk closer by
A silent look at me from the other side of the glass
A causal comment on food I ate
A loud voice at the background over the phone shouting directions
A request for consensus on ordering a cheese platter to share

Every tiny thing happens in life could be romantic. And that's how I am supporting my life all these years

Addiction

Addiction is used to describe a recurring compulsion by an individual to engage in some specific activity, despite harmful consequences to the individual's health, mental state or social life.

Recorded at 23:00 tonight, a compulsion of asking him out. I tied my hands from communicating with him through all means. By 00:00, I passed.

Beijing Grand Hyatt

Felt like a VIP.

Of course, I have sounded my "old friend" out before checking in. To my surprised, Mr. J appeared when I checked in at the front desk. He was so nice to help bring my luggage and escorted me to the room. We chatted a bit.

As usual, I asked my fellow to dine with me at the hotel restaurant. He came by and greeted us. My fellows smiled and a nodded afterwards. :)

After dinner, I caught him for a drink at the bar. Just a nice brief chat. The whole encounter was just nice.

p.s. the fourth deal done in the first 24 days of 2008. May I ask for some luck in my love life too?

As we walk...

We were talking on the way as we walked across Causeway Bay.

My Favourite Things

I like the melody of the song...

"When the dog bites, when the bee stings, when I'm feeling sad, I simply remember my favorite things, and then I don't... feel so bad."

Why push ourselves so hard? Can't we leave ourselves some space to daydream and to think of our favourite thing and person? Can't we just take off our shoes and feel the grass? Or even take a nap on the great lawn bare feet. Why leashed by the vibrating devices (to be clear, I mean mobile and blackberry)? Sorry, that's what you are paid for.

and so, here we go

I don't know it was really a confusion or a planned one. Anyways, he acted a bit abnormal or if it was a test. Yet, I was always told men are not that sophisticated.

Urging me to be available earlier than 10pm, he only appeared after me wondering alone in Causeway Bay for half an hour and sat at the bar for almost another half. And yet, he told me he thought it was my call for the drink. Well, I was invited by him to be exact.

Should I be pissed? I was thinking to myself. Even being a friend, I have all the right to be pissed with someone who had me to wait for an hour there alone. So upon his arrival, I was upfront to him that I needed fifteen minutes silence to cool myself off. And I found myself improved. At least I was expressing my true feeling.

A remark by 5pf dd 21st Jan: act confirmed to be the most graceful amongst all alternatives.

He stepped into the elevator. Here we go, wish came true. With a subtle nod, we acknowledged the presence of each other and that's it. I started to wonder about my blog entry the day before.

Third one closed today

This is only 16th.

Hope my luck would never run out.

Only one wish for the rest of the week, that is to see him for once tomorrow.

Now, it comes to my favourite part of the year, Chinese New Year, Bonus time, Birthday. Everything is so refreshing and encouraging!!!

These days, I could hear from him almost everyday. The content might not be exactly what I want to hear from him, yet the form is over the content. No more miserable, instead, I am amused.

Learnt something from a new found friend

That is to leave some space for the person I fond of.

One lunch, one dinner and one afternoontea in 4 days. What else should I ask for?

2008 繼續

今年第二宗生意今天做成了! 總算對我老闆有點交代.

原來我的部落格真的有人讀的. 台北喬伊斯媽媽很貼心地打電話來問候一番. 感動吶!!! 後來變我安慰她...

昨天是新年後第一次碰到他, 面對面談了一陣子. 今天又收到他的來電. 這樣便十分滿足.

2008 一將會是美好的一年嗎?

continue to keep slience

Don't know why, I just enjoyed being in the air of his presence. A few times I was caught peeping at him when the third person was talking.

A couple of others complimented my look today. I smiled and reply with blah blah blah. He was the reason for me dressing up. Besides I felt more confident this way.

2008

It has only been 9th days. I am stressed out from work. The first deal of the year was done yesterday. Although the profit is not a mega one, it is a good start. Having some result pushes me to work harder in the coming future.

I cracked down tearing in front of my understanding boss this evening. I know I am starting to raise my own bar.

Take a deep breathe.

5pf, time to learn some Chinese. 華語, cool!!!

元氣

沉悶的十二月終於結束. 最怕就是那種過節的責任. 明明不覺得有什麼值得慶祝, 但要勉强慶一慶, 好勁老土.



台北
幾乎結束了一段友誼, 因為她的說話有点太刻簿了.
兩個陌生女孩教了我一件很重要的事, 就是處女男都是犯賤的. 最好就是不要理他.

星加坡
穿着短褲, 人字袘, 走來走去.
忙着見我喜歡的人. 把虛偽通通都留在台北.

香港
很多工作等着我呢!

接着將會是北京...
