期待永遠比當下美麗

同樣是「完美主義者」, 可是因為「完美」的定義有別而不一樣.
雙魚和處女有說是「互相吸引又互相排斥的一對」.

唉!

現實與期待的必有落差. 我已學會叫自己不要失望，因為已在意料之內.

Here we go again...

umm... I am very skeptical about this.

Flying Pan

Esther, Carmen and I went for brunch today. Flying Pan, a 24 hours brunch place at Old Bailey Street, Soho, Central. The food was good, but the service was quite lousy. Well, the comfort food is irresistable. Despite the poor service, I will go again.

Monday's blue

The sky is grey.

Judging from the weather, it is going to rain soon. Depressing.
Anyway, Mondays are depressing.

Deep Breathe

Take it easy.

The whole episode is not as simple as thought. So, there are too many factors give negative effect on this. Well, instead of getting worry, just sit back and relax. Enjoy what is there.

Be happy!

Afterword...

就像礼拜天的brunch 一樣的comfort food. 沒有很特別的菜單, 但就是吃很舒服很滿足。最後來一杯蛇竇奶茶,令整頓午飯更完美。

我想, 若我的同伴一樣享受的話... 下回再續。

May be...

It just turned out to be another disappointing encounter.

Why am I so pessimistic all along?

This week

"Wednesday, wednesday, wednesday..." That's what I have in mind all day.

La la la love song

The tunes of the "Long Vacation" theme song is fading.

It was tiring mentally to move back home. Be it work or personal life. Although I was born and raise in this city, still I have to find my way to continue my living here again.

Instead of getting myself overwhelmed with reunion with friends, relatives, colleagues and neighbourhood. I chose to do it at my pace.

In the new phase of my life, I have found my pinch of spice to motivate myself to be a better me!

Letter "R"

Gonna miss Formosa

i thought i am going to leave without missing anybody or anything, but i realise lately, it is not true.

I miss my clients (nice ones), i miss my buddy colleagues, i miss my neighbourhood, i miss shops that i used to go...

i am gonna miss my freedom too...

70s Flower Power

Yap, that's the party.

Second biggest revenge

Best moment of the month.

I have been so depressed this month, simply because I felt inferior in front of the banana. Sure banana got pissed by now since we have done a deal without his acknowledgement.

Better be pissed. The more you got pissed, the more I am happy.

Well prepared for the 70's party at Steph... my outfit, the champagn and a very upbeat mood.

Shots...

I am planning to bring the best memory of Taiwan with me.

So, I will bit farewell to every of my friends and neighbourhood!
My girls, Far Eastern Hotel, Nail Store, Video Rental, Security Guard, the Diner, certain people in the office...

Switch off

In the middle of a client discussion, I passed out for 1/10th of a second. The scene of our last kiss flashed in my mind.

Giggle

It feels good sitting on the clean floor.
Over the weekend, I setup my little theatre in the room.

Banana sat in front of me and said "I need a definite date. Your relocation documents are still with me." He ended his sentense with a wicked smile.

I returned the signed contract to HR. The relocation process has been kicked off. The mover, the tax auditor, the relocation agent are in touch with me. The secretary is preparing my corporate card, black berry, laptop, name card, etc. Everyone knows I am going to report duty on 1st August but the wicked balding man.

Who is deciding the date of my relocation now? Me or you? Before answering this, I can't help to giggle to myself.

Akeelah and the Bee

A touching quote from the movie...

[quoting Marianne Williamson]

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same.

I put a needle on the back of my hand and I have feeling in life again.

Being mean

I know a few who enjoy being mean to others. They simply born with the gene of being mean. Meanness makes them feel superior. Being mean, they feel you are stepped under their shoes.

I should find psychology books about meanness. Why are people being mean?

Banana wrote : "There is no perfect time for everyone". Suggesting me to delegate to someone, instead of asking everyone to fit my schedule.

You know what, that's what I want t you to say. I don't want to be in the conference call. It is just a waste of time. I need you to say, say it black and white. And now I have the golden medal from the emperor not to attend.

Well, good luck and I am moving to a winning team from the failing one...

Wow...

This blog is THE record of my Taipei days. Amazing. There are 300+ entries, through out the 2 years. Goods and bads are all recorded. I can imagine it is going to be fun to read them in the future.

I can't wait to go home. I can't help but wonder, would I be able to coop with the Hong Kong life?

p.s. happy birthday to 5pf.

Night market

I am counting my days in Taiwan.

Today, I walked along the night market next to my apartment. I paid extra attention to the surrounding. May be I start to miss the place. Recording places that I enjoy in Taiwan would be a good idea. Before I left the country, at least I can remind myself where I used to hang out and place that I should revisit before I leave.
