Gosh
Tomorrow i will depart for Hoinan Island for Christmas, an early Merry Christmas to you all~
Thanks to all who's concerned about my employment status, relax... I hope by the end of Jan i will have a short turn solution and hopefully by end of March the result of my desired job will be known and I can seriously consider my options.
Today is such happy day when my JIC ex-chongmates get together again, how many years had it been since all of us (most of us to be exact, Samuel's gone missing agian) are in HK? We even took a same photo of us taken 6 years ago.... wow.... great times. (hopefully i will get the photos uploaded when i get back on Christmas eve)
Thanks to Jeff who brought me to his new urban hideout.... it's a really cozy place~
Needa sleep now, I'll see if i can blog when I'm abroad.

Excuses... and motivation.
Alright, so this is the review of my week.
Had my Lasik surgery done on thursday. Review on Friday and at that time all were pretty good, only that the doctor told me that my corneal epithelium hasnt completely attached back to its stroma. A bit of tingling sensation but nothing concerns me. Went out at night to have dinner with my dental classmate Jo and his boyfriend, she's one of the first to know my quitting of job... She's always so full of insight and ideas (This is what i always thought of her, and she's the one who nicknamed me "The durian" when we first knew each other in Year 1, she's still right about it) (About the durian, i've previous had an entry about it.... probably it's too long ago for anyone to remember, it's still on my Zorpia account tho~ ^^ In short, She describe me as a durian that i will attack whoever come close to me and i'm famous for my notoriety, however, like the "King of Fruit", for those who hate me will hate me till the day they die, likewise, for those who found the good about me is going to love me.... She's so right) Great chat with her, I hope we can have more time to spend like this~
Saturday. Went for the first round interview for the post of police inspector. All were good (fortunately I've done the Lasik soon enough coz i see people failing the eye inspection.....) Have scheduled another written examination in early Jan, shall be okay... now it's really time to boost my fitness and mentally prepare myself. The rest of the day is spent unpacking my stuff and later that night my eye starts to hurt.... my vision is blurring too.... I thought it's a bit of infection so i've applied some antibiotic eyedrop and sleep for long... hoping that my body can fight the infection.
Sunday. Nightmare start of the day. Eye's still hurting. My neck had strained coz the new pillow is way too hard and high..... had a totally miserable day.
Monday and Tuesday. My eye is finally feeling better. Spent the days idly cause i really need a break after (only) 3 months of work.... life spent at home is pretty good, I can read whenever i want to, watch a movie or two, listen to my favourite music.... if money is not a concern, surely i'd love to spent more days like this ^^
Wednesday. A review appointment with my eye surgeon. She's confirmed that I'm suffering from Recurrent Corneal Erosion (RCE) which is a not-so-common complication from Lasik.... pretty bad luck for me cause it'd take at least a couple of weeks before i can fully heal (leave alone the fact that it might recur.....) Fortunately I only had the condition on my left eye and my right eye is perfectly fine.... i can at least rely on my right eye for the time being. Had lunch with Kevin and Angela, they're kind enough to share my burdens, thanks so much. Made a bold decision that day in purchasing a Playstation 3.... gosh... it's such an addicting machine..... Cant believe I can play non-stop from the time i unwrapped the game console >.< (another proof of my lack of determination and self discipline >.<)
Thursday. My brother is finally back in Hong Kong.... He's all fine apart from his eye-soaring fat tummy... he claim it's due to sitting in office cubicle for most of his working time that caused it.... i guess that's quite true and i'm afraid if i sit on the dental chair and operate for 5 or so years i'll end up exactly like him today >.< So at night I've mustered enough motivation to work out again. Partly to look good, and more importantly to train myself to pass the physical requirement of police force.... I'm going to upload my training regime here on day to day basis so that I can keep track of the progress.
Today:
Jogging, 2.34km in 13"50'.
Push up 10times X3sets
Biceps 8 X2sets
Butterfly 5X1
This is not impressive result but at least i hope it's a good start.....
It's getting late now.... must write again tomorrow.

Surgery's fine.
Still sleepy from the drug effect.... will write again.

My first job.
I'm more worried about my LASIK surgery to be performed on Thursday afternoon..... Should anything goes wrong. This may be the very last post I'll enter here (or else you'll have to learn braille to read my stuff, LOL~) Finger crossed for a safe and successful surgery~
Got the notification from the Police Department for an initial body check this saturday.... No matter what, I'll do my best.
Second Best?
Do you really believe in it?
In my view, being second best is the most pathetic thing ever.... for nobody is going to remember the runner up in a competition, all they'll notice is just the winner. No matter how much effort you spent in it, no matter how hard you try, it's all nothing but futile effort....
I'm not going to let myself settle for being second best.
Some said this is going to put me in great stress, for there will be unlimitied challenges.... If that's the case, so be it. I'm up to the challenge.
Corky? I certainly am. Only that I'm one corky guy who's gonna prove my value to everyone else.

Relieved... .and it's time to get going again.
Past few days was spent meeting friends and getting advice from them... Thank you so much for sharing my burdens and offering so much support to me. I knew... no matter how hard my future road's gonna be, I will never walk alone.
I've made up my mind, I will no longer work for my current boss as i can earn nothing and learn nothing from him under the current mode of practice at his place (scenario being all my patients ended up 'referred' to him for the costy work....) I dont care, i feel no passion at this post already... better to leave sooner than later. It's a great chance for me to take a break off in December and get me well equipped for the future challenges. (Well... seems that I'm always going to be the record breaker..... guess very few can break my record of time at the first job since graduation.... 3 months.... for a dentist that's a short short time and i'm feeling i've spent ages at the clinic already.... does it has something to do with the heavy workload there?)
Friday, Work as usual, though i only do what's absolute necessary and postponing the optional treatment by 'referring' to my boss (if that's what he wanted so badly).... sticking with the guidelines and no more no less (that's seems like life after 10, 20 years of practice, when one have lost all the passion..... it's a bad feeling.... that's exactly the reason why I'm looking for life other than dental as i've forseen this happening). Night caught a dinner and movie with Jeff. "Beast Stalker" by Nic Tse, the stunts and characters are okay, only that the plot is a direct copy of the award winning "Crash" from some years ago.... a bit disappointed.
Saturday, writing challenge.... it's been long time since i last sat down and actuallly 'wrote' something.... i guess the last time was in A-level exam. Only this time the time was short and the questions were hard. The following are the government's administrative officer recruitment exam 2009's question. English part: It gave the background of a Tin Shui Wai-equivalent imaginary district (characterised by high unemployment, low household income, difficulties in transportation, insufficient public facilities, large number of new immigrants families and insufficient school places etc), and there is a limited land supply, the only existing land was planned for a school relocation programme that's expected to alleviate the demand in education places in that district and there will be no land that can serve that purpose at least for the upcoming 5 years. The government intended to go for the school's programme. However, it faces challenges from the local resident, they claimed that it might be more beneficial to establish a new bazaar or flea market on the land that can help boast tourism and ease unemployment problem. Assume that you're a task force considering for the land use, please draft a discussion paper to sum up the pros and cons of each proposal, to provide alternative proposal that may solve the dispute and advice the way forward. Chinese part, "Should the selling of kidney for transplantation be legalized?" Write your views on it. Both parts are interesting.... luckily i have got something to write about it..... time goes really fast when you're thinking and writing.... it took me the whole 3 hours to answer that.... i feel that i have done okay as my thinking are quite logical though i really need to brush up my english..... just hope that i can get a pass for the paper.
Sunday, went to church for some spiritual enlightenment.... still dont quite get it why people need to gather at church? I always thought the path in knowing God is a rather lonely journey, one can only seek by himself.... I dunno, i'm just starting to get confused.... i guess it'll take me more time in order to understand.
Sunday afternoon spent with family. Took some lovely graduation photos with my uncles and aunties. They'll be my precious memories~
Monday. Mega Friends Day. Meet a couple of friends on that day, Monkey, the tutor from my hall, who offered me excellent analysis on my career options. Sister Kathy, who's gorgeous everytime i met her and very supportive in the decision i made ^^ Sara, thoughtful and make me think of my future, having your company is my great honour. And Jonathan, great pal, he's the kind of friend who give out his heart~ What more can i ask for when i have such lovely friends??? Love you all~
Tuesday and Wednesday. Work as usual.... so boring....
Thursday, day off again. Spent my day getting a hair cut and asking for the best hospital for LASIK (against my parents' objection, I'll get my eyesight correction possibly next week), spent the night doing so training and exercise in order to get fit (I felt myself falling apart when i tried to do some short distance jogging..... sigh.... need to work hard on it.) (Do feel free to check my stat at my Nike Running profile: http://nikeplus.nike.com/nikeplus/?l=runners,runs,1356456978 to see if i'm really working out ^^)
Tomorrow still gotta work, and it's now getting late.... maybe i'll write next time, promise you, it wont be long before i update again~

Like a pop star.
Attended the University's congregation ceremony yesterday and my faculty's congregation tonight. Both are wonderful event (though a bit boring.....) Surely that's the kind of once-in-a-lifetime experience that you must try~
I've grinned for so long hours that i feel the angle of mouth tense and buccinator and risoris still contracting....
Taken so many great photos with friends, surely will find sometime and upload them on facebook~
Shame that i got to work early in the morning..... working life is so... limitating.....
Still searching.

Friday night, with Ewing, Lotion and Jackie.... So much fun blathering..... it's hard to find time for everyone since we all started working. That night is really excellent. (PS. Ewing, hope you get well soon)
Saturday night. Dinner with Shirlin and Jeff. Head for drink at TST later that night. Run into Sharon and get to know a new friend Kristen. I'm simply getting old..... so tired after the drink... (though next time i must try the Hoegaardten Grand Crul)
Sunday. Woke with a bad headache (as expected).... went back to campus with floormates to take my graduation photo.... lovely times~ The dinner was unexceptionally joyful..... seems like everyone is stressed from work... is that a norm?
Gotta get myself ready for work tmr. Shall write again.

Alive. Once again.
Enjoyed a lovely dinner with family, cousin is now back in HK. All the best to her exams soon. Feeling great finally able to buy my grandma something decent, with my own money. (It's not too valuable, but I'm still proud as i can earn my own bread ^^)
14-11.... it's been another year. For every beginning there's an end.... I'm putting it to an end.... i must.
I have got my gowns. For those who'd like to take graduation photos with me, please feel free to call~

If u ARGUE with him, he says u are STUBBORN;
If u keep QUIET, he says u have no BRAINS.
If u are SMARTER than him, he'll lose FACE;
If he's Smarter than u, he is GREAT.
If u don't Love him, he tries to POSSESS u;
If u Love him, he will try to LEAVE u.
If u don't make love with him., he says u don't Love him;
If u do!! he says u are CHEAP.
If u tell him your PROBLEM, he says u are TROUBLESOME;
If u don't, he says that u don't TRUST him.
If u SCOLD him, u are like a NANNY to him;
If he SCOLDS u, it is because he CARES for u.
If u BREAK your PROMISE, u Cannot be TRUSTED;
If he BREAKS his, he is FORCED to do so.
If u SMOKE, uare BAD girl;
If he SMOKES, he is GENTLEMENT.
If u do WELL in your exams, he says it's LUCK;
If he does WELL, it's BRAINS.
If u HURT him, u are CRUEL;
If he HURTS u, u are too SENSITIVE!!

Um.... pretty true~

Hard day.
It's like.... standing at the juntion of one thousand roads but none will take me to my desired destination.
Thanks Jeff for his encouragment (if not enlightenment).
I must learn to treasure what I have and be grateful.
Enjoy life, enjoy work.
PS. It's such funny feeling. I feel so close to somebody who I've never met before. Maybe, similiar background bring us together naturally?

Unlikely dinner combination.
Just one short line here. Work is pretty normal for the last 2 days, and will be busy as usual till late weekend. (Finished.)
Saw my cousin's blog and my best blessing to her.
Must be getting old lately coz I've only had a bit of white wine and i'm feeling lightheaded and a bit dizzy... Drinking is really a skill that need to be learnt and practise from time to time.
Tonight's dinner is wonderful. Dine at a posh restaurant at Sanlitun in Wan Chai. Excellent environment. Best still the time is spent with great friends (I've originally dated Chris, my floormate for dinner but so happened that my classmate Angela came and joined us too.... Interesting combination.) Nothing beat a long, thoughtful conversation with friends..... really took away my misery and pressure lately.
Obama won. My prediction was right.
PS. Thanks to Vincy for dropping by my blog. Do visit again some other time.
Tuesday, November 04, 2008
Work is stressful.
I must not let myself be affected by such negativity..... Calm down.....
Tonight will be the start of Presidential election US 2008. I support the lesser of 2 evil, Obama.

How much life do you need?
Especially when all my friends are persuading me to join saving plans. I kept wondering, what's the point of saving up if i dont know when my life will end? Maybe i wont make it to the day when my bonds are matured.....
To me, at this stage, i dont look forward to a long life. I just need a life long enough that i can take care of my parents and preferably enjoy life for a couple years (say 5~), then i dont mind dying...
I knew this is quite pathetic thought and might not be true as i dont have my family yet.... but still.... Death is something that nobody can escape. Take it lightly can make your life easily sometimes.
I will still participate in the saving plans, always save up for the unknown, that's why the chinese are successful (considering the situation of them in this financial crisis)
Gotta sleep. Needa work again.
Happy Halloween Everyone.

Model.
Work's okay today.
I had an eye for good fashion. I need a model tho.
Monday, October 27, 2008
Busy weekend.
Saturday. What's worse than a hangover? A hangover morning with work to do..... woke so early in the morning and got be to work.... >.< The afternoon spent sleeping (i really needed that sleep).
Sunday. Asked Winnie and Angie out for tea. Had an urge for movie badly that i ended up going for movie on solo. "Tropical Thunder" by Ben Stiller. You can view it as an up-class 'scary war movie' series..... only this time it's starred with the likes of Ben and Jack Black.... well.... worth a laugh tho.
Went back to hall for the match between Chelsea and Liverpool, which Liverpool came out the deserved winner by one goal margin ^^ Hurray. Breaking the Chelsea's undefeated home record in 4 years is a great plus.
Nothing had changed much since i left hall. Didnt meet many freshmen. Most of the people i met are still the familiar faces..... which is lovely. Cant resist to stay for a night and memorize the feeling when i can wake in the late afternoon for tea (tho sadly i still wake around 10)..... Surely if i had the chance i will go back more often. Such good times.
Friday, October 24, 2008
Working hard.
Enjoyed a great dinner with Grandmum. She's aging so quickly lately. (Fortunately she's still humourous and she agreed to buy a Mark Six with me so that we can get rich together.)
Fell in love with TV drama lately. I can stare at the TV box blankly withouth thinking a thing. That's a great relaxation.
Gotta sleep now. Work tomorrow and expecting a great meal with friends. Finally a full reunion with Jon, Kat, Sally and James in 5 years. Hurray~

Too lazy to give title.
Work goes okay today. Feeling good when I can extract all 4's from patient's mouth within 20 mins (without any complications). Just my lucky day, considering the experience i had with 2 upper premolar last week.
Afterwork went out with James, who didnt change much even after all these years. Still as skinny as before. Happy time flies (though working time move like snail). Looking forward to our JIC reunion.
Inspired by Jeff last night. I think it's now time for me to work out my saving plan..... I want to own my own house ASAP (most reasonable time will be 2 years from now. When the stock and property market is supposedly the lowest)..... gotta work hard for that.
Feeling good after gym tonight.... but my stomach is starving.... need to sleep soon before i turn for late dinner that's gonna ruin all my plans. Till next time then.
PS. Happy B-day to C Hing Kennon ^^ All the best in Cheung Du~
PS2. Joke of the day: "Baseball is all wrong. A Man with four BALLS can't possibly WALK."

Lazy and Underemployed.
I was so so so lazy this weekend..... did nothing productive but spending.... It's real joy though.
Friday's work is pretty much as usual. Didnt linger at office for a single second and i headed to Central to join Jeff for the Ocean Park's Halloween Activities. This year the attractions are somewhat better than last year's. However (maybe I'm just too prepared for it) they've failed to scare me at all..... pretty disappointed..... next time i must find someone who will be and can be scared.... just not this combination ^^
The most enjoyable event in the whole night turns out to be the Cable car ride. Always, spending time with close friend is priceless. I really enjoyed our conversation.
Went for movie (3D Nightmare before Christmas. Classic) and drink. Hang around till late night that day. Only went to bed at 4 something......
Waking on Saturday afternoon feeling the sun's burning my skin.... it's already 2 something. Read for a while till night..... and wasted the whole day.
Sunday. Morning and Afternoon for lectures.... gosh, i missed my free time >.< Night had dinner with ceci at Mong Kok, where i also ran in to a number of old hallmates.... pretty fun night.
Today. Finally feel like I'm being underemployed after the 4 consecutive long weekend.... I'm afraid when i really have to switch to another job, i just cant adapt to it >.< Got woke up by friends early in the morning and couldnt fall back to sleep again. Went out to Kowloon Bay for Bowling and Shopping...... A trip to IKEA always brought me with new ideas for my room (especially when I might soon move)......
Night with Jeff again. All the best to his new job~
Got a surprise call from James on weekend. He's back in HK now. So apart from Alvin all my friends are back to this tiny city. Life's gonn be fun again. (this is the first time i ever mention James in my blog, coz he's been disappeared for too long, even before i switched to blogspot. Welcome to my world James)
God. Religion.
Christian. Catholic.
I'm having some trouble lately. Just dont push me. I'll find my way in a slow manner.

Another Dayoff.
Changed my looks (Some said I now have a very typical MK look, which i denied but admit a bit of Japanese influence has made me look "punk" right now. Well, as usual, i dont sell looks, so as long as i feel good about myself, i'm okay.) by having an hair cut and some new clothes.
Dated Sister for a dine out and movie, "Vicky Christina Barcelona" by Woody Allen. Shame that i still havent watched "Matchpoint" so i cant make a comparison out of it. It's a good movie with lots of dilemma that one shall/will face at some point of their life.... Prett interesting ending too.
I love the notion, "We are meant for each other and not meant for each other. It's a contradiction."
Tomorrow gonna work hard and enjoy Ocean Park afterwork ^^ Looking forward to it.
Gym now. Will write next time.

Finesse or Force?
Saturday. Work in the morning. Then spent the afternoon 'yum cha' with family and ending up dozing off at granny's place.
Sunday. Home-bound.
Monday. Day off. So it's another home-bound day. In the afternoon went to church by the invitation of my aunt.... things didnt go too bad. Though I've got many questions in my mind still.... I dunno... there's still time.
Tuesday. Work after some holiday. Totally exhausted. Especially when extracting long pre-molars for orthodontic reason.... Who said Dentistry is all about finesse. What a total nonsense.... It's all about FORCE~~~
Almost time to sleep.... gotta wake early for tmr work again.
Saturday, October 11, 2008
Loved.
My body building schedule is severely delayed (if not postponed) for everyday i got home with aches on my back and shoulder..... i simply cant lift any weights without hurting myself...... that's bad....
Time is so precious..... I'd now do anything to maximize my playing/private time~
Gotta work tomorrow..... so now it's really time to sleep.... but still want to write a bit more here.....
Feel so loved by friends lately~ I love you all~
Belated happy birthday to my sister and friends, may everyone with good health and the best this year. (Special wish to Sister Kathy, a lovely wedding and happy ever after ^^)
Gonna try more, see more and explore more.....
Thursday, October 09, 2008
Dynamite.
The negativity around me is too large lately... Not even a dinner meeting with sister and friends is going to cheer me up...
I mean.... Why so serious?
Got to find another way out. (Possibly out of the field...)

Comeback.
Another congrads for the 1000th Premiership League goal.... excellently scored by Fernando Torres!!!
Liverpool for life. You'll never walk alone.
PS. My life is now stuck... if not trailing from behind already.... so frustrating. I wish I can break this deadlock one way or another....

Pain.
Thankful to my friends.... I had a lovely weekend.
My work on Friday is a total disaster... Dont know why but at this point I'm quite fed up with my job... Anyone got good employment opportunities? Please let me know.
Really busy Friday night which I've attended a couple of dinners. Great to meet with old friends and make new ones. BTW Peking Road 1 has a wonderful view.
Later that night was in LKF for fun and even later was with floormates for our usual activity in (celebration?) memory of the soon-to-be-leaving Kennon : P
Saturday was for rest. Couple of good movies that day.
Bad news struck on Sunday afternoon.... originally i've a lovely 4 day-off (with Sat and Sun, Monday day off and Tue public holiday).... Screw my boss for asking me to come back to 'observe' him doing the surgery (and to withstand his verbal assault....)... Gosh... I miss my holiday.....
Sunday. Was invited to Alan Pong's dinner..... the attendees are so diversified.... um... Alan Pong and friends..... i guess the only similarity being all of us were RC guys....
I guess it's now time to sleep..... write again next time.

韓國斧山: 在斧山的街上,一中年男子不小心刮開了一年約18女生的超短裙。中年男人還沒有開口,那女生二話不說便踢出一個turning kick,然後冷冷地說:你不知道我可是跆拳道黑帶2段的嗎?

Wa Ha Ha again~
Need a bit of control.
Today, another day wasted.
Tomorrow will be a day of challenge. All on my own in UST and the patient list run a scary number of 27, just hope that nothing'd go too wrong tmr....

Pay Day.
Life pretty much as usual in the morning.... with work piling up.... Got a bit of job satisfaction after restoring some grossly broken down teeth.... i hope i can have the same kind of joy after i perform surgery for my patients.
Got my first pay cheque of my life.... um... the figure is a bit low (worse that i've earned less salary than my assistant.... gosh) I'm now having trouble doing the MPF thing.... can anyone help me out on this?
Attended a couple of dinners tonight, yes, a couple.... starting from 5pm i've been constantly eating and drinking... till 3 at night..... all my friends are so relieved by the holiday tomorrow (Hurray to the People's Republic of China... best if you can have some more days of establishment ^^, such that we can have more day offs)
Met with my mates and the beloved ladies from MCS (originally i'd use the term girl... but somehow they've all grown up at an incredible pace.... am i just... getting old too fast?) It's been so much fun.
Another dinner gathering was with the usual SPOC members.... 6 people head for drinks and representing 6 different professions.... kinda interesting gathering.... hope such chat can be more often~
I'm not going to wake anytime soon once i fall asleep.... write later.

Kite Runner.
Failed to watch a single movie in the weekend.... my stock of VCD are piling higher and higher...... i have, on the otherhand, watched more TV than ever..... subsitute?
It's my day off on Monday but i still manage to go back to office and read..... once again, many eureka moments.
And fortunately i was at UST today coz when i got off from work, i got call from Sam and Alvin asking me to go to Sai Kung.... where i spent the evening flying kite.... it's so much fun and I've flown all the 200 yards of string up to the sky..... i even tied the kite to a nearby tree.... hope that the next time i got there i can still see it~
Durian dessert before dinner.... a bit strange, but with friends nothing really matters.
Didnt want to go home yet and me and Alvin went to the Star Avenue at TST and had a drink.... watching the nightview and chatting, on every interesting subject.... i am more and more interested in life as a barrister or judge.....
Just finished dinner, it's now time to sleep. Busy tomorrow.
Sunday, September 28, 2008
Happy Birthday.
Skipped work on Saturday morning.... bad sign?
Looking forward to meeting friends this week.

Hypnosis.
So true.
Feeling both good and bad today.
Clinical work is a bit sub-par for some case today....
But the good side, got a few Eureka moment when i'm reading some 'basic' textbook..... um.... maybe that's bad.... gotta read more.
Kept my brain working on what i've been through last night.... now feeling scary. The 'company' has employed so many hypnotic measures to alter one's sub-conciousness..... Feel proud of myself for resisting all their effort.... Must be more careful next time.
Was asked of what constitute the 7 original sin, here you go: Rage, Envy, Sloth, Pride, Lust, Gluttony and Greed. How many do you have?
Spent the night with grandma. Proud that I can finally buy her decent dinner~ Hope the best is yet to come.
Better sleep now, still got work tmr.

Relationship business...
If you tell me, I can easily earn millions without much hard work.... I'm sorry, I just dont believe.
All i heard tonight is about Sloth, Greed and Utopia....
Nothing with sound background...
My advice... quit this job soon or you'll lose all your friends.
There's nothing more important to me than friendship.....
Nevermind....
That's a way you choose.
Tuesday, September 23, 2008
As usual. Or not too usual?
Thanks for his 'slogan' plates. Some quoted here.
"Damn right I'm good in Bed........ I can sleep for days."
"I would like to see things from your point of view....... But I have difficulties stuffing my head in my arse."
They're going to be my favorite quotes soon.
Another good pharse from another friend.
"我喜歡現在的自己, 我懷念過去的我們"
So true.
It's now Typhoon No. 8.... hope it will last long that i dont have to wake early in the morning.....
But still..... gotta sleep.
PS. House MD is a really good drama.
Monday, September 22, 2008
Movie this weekend.
Tried out the new game by Maxis, Spore..... It's a really attractive game.
Played snooker on Saturday afterwork, it's fun and a good relaxation.... dunno where can i find a bar with pool table and darts, that'll satisify my need.
Gotta sleep now, till later.
Daniel Powter - Bad Day
Another good MV since "All about Loving You"
Lyrics:
Where is the moment we needed the most
You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost
They tell me your blue skies fade to grey
They tell me your passion's gone away
And I don't need no carryin' on
You stand in the line just to hit a new low
You're faking a smile with the coffee to go
You tell me your life's been way off line
You're falling to pieces everytime
And I don't need no carryin' on
Cause you had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
The camera don't lie
You're coming back down and you really don't mind
You had a bad day
You had a bad day
Well you need a blue sky holiday
The point is they laugh at what you say
And I don't need no carryin' on
You had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
The camera don't lie
You're coming back down and you really don't mind
You had a bad day
(Oh.. Holiday..)
Sometimes the system goes on the blink
And the whole thing turns out wrong
You might not make it back and you know
That you could be well oh that strong
And I'm not wrong
So where is the passion when you need it the most
Oh you and I
You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost
Cause you had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
You've seen what you like
And how does it feel for one more time
You had a bad day
You had a bad day
Had a bad day
Had a bad day
Had a bad day
Had a bad day
Had a bad day

Unhappiness.
I was naive... Friends are friends for life might be nothing more than myth....
I should have realized that friends come and go in your life (very much like lovers)....
I am passive about relationships.... if you dont bother, there's no way i'll hang on to it any longer...
Are there anything as irreconcilable difference? I dont know.

Milestone.
Nothing big deal.... but still worth remembering.
Jaw Pain.
"No Sacrifice, No Victory" This pharse is so true..... gotta work hard.
Feel pretty bad today..... luckily tomorrow it's gonna be Friday. Arranged dinner with friends already... look forward to it.
PS. I miss my 4x4 Rubik's..... it's now lonely sitting on my desk.... gotta take care of it soon before i forget all the moves....
PS2. More and more wanted to own a pet.... An american short-hair will be ideal.... at least there's someone (something?) to wait for you at home is a happy sight.
Jackpot....
An easy morning session, followed by a short nap in the afternoon, a casual dinner with friend (though he's a bit confused at this moment, but i have full faith in him, he'll be doing fine {if not good} in a matter of weeks...)
Spent the night in the arcade playing games.... won the Jackpot 3 times in a row..... what a wonderful night ^^
Better still.... heard a good 'secret' from friend tonight.... too bad it's a secret that i cant write here..... but just delighted.... hope that day come soon ^^

The end of days?
Do anything matter anymore?
Hopefully the current CERN Large Hadron Collider project is not going to make micro-black hole that will engulf the earth or strangelet that causes chain reaction and wipe all human civilization.
Worse still..... even if the project is a success..... the day when we discover anti matter and really have control of that..... just wish it's not going to be the next weapon of mass destruction.....
Religiously speaking.... if we can recreate big-bang by mere colliding atoms together, does it mean our existence is nothing more than an outcome of probability? Where should our faith lie?
Nevermind, i must be too tired....... (got myself a new set of dumbbell..... time to get fit....)
Business Card.
The more i distribute, in theory, the more income that i'll earn.
So hopefully by the end of this year my 1000 cards will long be gone (and then i can afford to print my card on some better papers)

Alfie.
Pretty inspirational.... I kinda envy him but the same time have pity for him....
Gosh......
Saturday, September 06, 2008
Early.
Surely I'm not a great fan of flag (should i have the choice).......
Spent my Saturday afternoon sleeping.... what a waste......
Still sleepy, gonna sleep again.
Thursday, September 04, 2008
Race with the clock~
Tick Tart, Tick Tart....
Not a single moment of stopping.....
From the moment i woke..... to when i'm working in the surgery..... time's so important....
That's why i treasure the time when i can ignore time for a while...
Like afterwork....
Chatting with friends, a casual dinner and a night time MSN is really brilliant.
"Ciao bella, ti voglio bene" "Ti amo troppo"
"I say a little prayer for you"
Count time again:16, less patient, more work.
Looking forward to the Root Canal tomorrow.
Sleep now, shall write again.
Wednesday, September 03, 2008
Patient count.
Yesterday: 23.
Today: 19.
Tomorrow:........ better not think too much. Gotta sleep.
PS. It's been a wonderful dinner with Kale, Ewing and Horace tonight. (unexpected combination) (Kennon, wish you were here too ^^)
Commuters....
Since urbanization?? I dunno....
I only know i'm one of them now....
Staring at the people at the cabin.... nothing but emptiness in their eyes.
Are they what i'll be in 10 years time?
Or shall I continue to invest in my current profession?
Especially when there are still choice left for me at this stage?
Fire service, Police, or even Lawyer.....
Hard to choose....
Tuesday, September 02, 2008
Alright.... and busy.
1. UST is a really cast away place, took me almost 90 minutes to get there.
2. I've forgotten about most of my bread and butter skills already, it's now time to pick it up.
3. Assistants are invaluable, cause without them, i can not even work alone (i have no idea where the things were)
4. There's a general decline of 'quality' of students (girls especially) in all universities, not only HKU.....
5. It's tiring if i have to work alone and see 20 patients a day.
Got a lot more to write, but is too tired now. Better write next time.
Look forward to tomorrow.
Monday, September 01, 2008
Ask.
Got so much to ask for.
Wants are unlimited...
Worse still, I have little faith in anything lately.

Humiliating.... and rebirth.
I've spent 5 years on nothing more but to gain the dental license.
Now it's time to learn again. Topic this time, to be a real dentist.
Gotta work double time.
Thursday, August 28, 2008
Plan?
This is exactly what i felt like being today.
If my personal gain is based on the disadvantages of my companion, I'd rather not take it.
I'm not the BSB at Max Payne.
Wednesday, August 27, 2008
Direction.
They live their lifes, trying to be somebody else.
They will follow the path of the successful ones without knowing if that path suit them or not.
Even more scary, they have no idea if they'd love the kind of life or not.
Am I, doing exactly the same thing as they do?
PS. Freemasons is not a religion, nor is it a secret society. It's only a society with secrets.

Purchasing desire and purchasing ability.
A trench coat from Zara Men's.
A couple of CDs, All american rejects and Dolores O'Riordan Albumes.
Some books...
Without really realizing that my salary wont come till October...... um.... here lies the problem >.<"
PS. Working in Central is really disastrous as there are more than plenty of good restaurants and shops around.

Like 5 years ago.
Looking at the drippings from the wall and the air conditioner (not exactly dripping, but small water falls) reminds me of the day i had orientation camp five years ago.
Exactly typhoon signal 9 and the same kind of fun.
That's good old times.
TGI Friday?
An associate dentist position at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology.
O well... i am starting the stress of the new job already.
Moral Highground.
No matter what other do, it's so easy to decline their effort or ignore their struggle.
That's what i learn from 'My sister's keeper' and some recent incidents.

Will Power.
I remember watching a programme on discovery channel previously, will power can actually affect some 'apparently' random act (in the test it use the result of Pachinko, pin-ball like slot machine game.... if a player focus hard enough, the result of the pachinko can disobey the normal distrubtion pattern, with p-value lower than 0.05) It seems... human minds do have some sort of strength there.
If this is true, i sincere hope that my will will be carried along with my resume to my potential boss.

U2 - Beautiful Day
The heart is a bloom
Shoots up through the stony ground
There's no room
No space to rent in this town
You're out of luck
And the reason that you had to care
The traffic is stuck
And you're not moving anywhere
You thought you'd found a friend
To take you out of this place
Someone you could lend a hand
In return for grace
It's a beautiful day
Sky falls, you feel like
It's a beautiful day
Don't let it get away
You're on the road
But you've got no destination
You're in the mud
In the maze of her imagination
You love this town
Even if that doesn't ring true
You've been all over
And it's been all over you
It's a beautiful day
Don't let it get away
It's a beautiful day
Touch me
Take me to that other place
Teach me
I know I'm not a hopeless case
See the world in green and blue
See China right in front of you
See the canyons broken by cloud
See the tuna fleets clearing the sea out
See the Bedouin fires at night
See the oil fields at first light
And see the bird with a leaf in her mouth
After the flood all the colors came out
It was a beautiful day
Don't let it get away
Beautiful day
Touch me
Take me to that other place
Reach me
I know I'm not a hopeless case
What you don't have you don't need it now
What you don't know you can feel it somehow
What you don't have you don't need it now
Don't need it now
Was a beautiful day

Home.
Moved from my hall back to home (finally).
Nightmare just started..... after packing up, i now have to endure the long procedure of unpacking again.....
And setting up the internet connection is unespecially troublesome too....
Just managed to fix all problems....
I guess i'll have a good 'day' sleep now.
Till later.
PS. I've written for the graduation booklet, enclosed below. It might not be the best piece of writing, but all of them are the words from my heart.
Time flies……
It seems like yesterday when I first set foot in PPDH, I was so young and fresh that I’ve never expected these 5 years will be such memorable journey of my life.
I must thank all the Professors and Doctors for their untiring dedication towards education that enlightened me and prepared me to be a good dentist.
Thanks to my beloved Class 08 classmates, without you, the dental life will never be quite as fun and interesting.
Thanks to all members of the Annual Dinner Organizing Committee 2006. I am so glad to have worked along side with you, it’s been a really wonderful night.
Thanks to all players of Dental Army, I really treasure the summertime that we spent training and playing softball matches together.
And of course, my dear group 6 groupmates, We’ve been through bitter and sweet, though we may walk different paths from now on, our hearts are always bonded.
Just want to say a big Thank You and Love you all.

Job searching.
Though i can well feed myself for a couple of months even without a job, the process of waiting for reply is a slow torture. Not to mention that i have now developed a kind of 'stranger-phone number' syndrome.... especially the calls early in the morning, got to sound the best even when i'm only half awake.
Should I go for just anyone of the the job available and take the offer first? Maybe this could ease my stress.....
Tuesday, August 12, 2008
History...
Dunno why I'm lured into reading my old entries again, at this time of the night..... but no matter what i do, there's nothing that can wipe out my memories, my experiences..... these are the things that i got to carry throughout my entire life (if i'm lucky enough not to have senile dementia)
Relax - Take it Easy, Mika
Love is...?
Touched by the story so much.
It's such old saying..... but still.... you got to let the people know that you loved them.....
It's hard in the Chinese society... but still.

My sister's keeper.
Lot's of moral/ethics (these 2 are not exactly the same, think about it) issues.... and in every family, it'll have different problems in it. But nonetheless, love is what bind a family together.
"Doubt thou that stars are fire;
Doubt thou that the sun doth move;
Doubt truth to be a liar;
But never doubt that I love."
William Shakespeare, Hamlet
Goal~
Though it's only a tap-in from close range, i still feel delighted about it.
I hope it's the first of many more.
PS. My legs are in shambles after yesterday's match... got to work on the fitness and hopefully i'll be better next time.
Saturday, August 09, 2008
Moving on.
A time to move on? Probably.
Pretty unsure of my own road but nonetheless i can only move forward.
Olyampics.
The Olyampics opening ceremony is incredible. I especially like the drum shown in the beginning. Two thousands people, working with clockwork precision, had given us an excellent show. And it's very very impressive.
The later part when the performer pile themself into the National Stadium is a great demostration of unity as well....
Overall..... it's a great show.
Now looking forward to some exciting sporting action.

Kevin Spacy as scary as Heath Ledger.
Kevin should have nominated an Oscar or something in his role as John Doe in that movie.
That's just too scary....
Well-plotted movie.

Durian.
I chose this topic as i want to know if i have changed much over the past 5 years.
I must provide information to people who are new to my blog (not this blog, but from zorpia, if you still remember i had an account there).
I was once described by a classmate (who really read me well and through, and till now i am glad that she had once made such a comment to me) as a "Durian"..... saying that i am like that kind of fruit because when i make friends, i use to have 'thorns' that will repel people who are too near to me, i tend to hurt them. And i'm very famous for my notoriety.... those who hate me will hate me to the utmost but for those who found the character within me will certainly love me..... i really like this metaphor.
Yes, i was really a 'durian' during my days in year 1..... but through the hall education (i'd rather say the education from the seniors of my floormates, Kennon in particular) I have changed. It's like rounding off the rough edges and make people feel easy around me.... i must admit the changing process is a really though experience, like everything i want to speak i got to think twice before actually saying it.... but all seems to pay off as i feel hall life much more tolerable from then. Befriend with more people and certainly, life's easier.
But at certain point of that 'life' i feel 'bored'.... it's like.... i'm living somebody else's life..... i had more than one occassion question if i had made the right choice in changing myself (the feeling grow stronger and stronger when some old friends from highschool said the same thing to me).... That's when i met my special one, Wendy, who taught me how to love and gave me confidence to be myself..... Just the way I am..... i fully appreciated all the things she had done for me.
Spring only last for so long and by the time Wendy walked out of my life.... i have transformed into another person again.... caused by despair and pain.... i'm living a lethargic life.... pretty much the dark side character.... i guess i must be pretty scary in that period of my life and an arse to deal with.....
With time soothing everything and i am the man here today.... I still dont know how i present to you (feedbacks are always welcome, every criticism make me a better person)... but me, myself feels pretty good about my own self.... i think that's what mattered most.
It's been a rather tortuous journey.... but looking back, i am still grateful of what had happened on me. For they are all my precious memories.

The Wedding.
Glad to have attended the ceremony. It's such a wonderful wedding.
Lots of thoughts, but one that most inspire me.
"We Love because God loves us."
Feel so loved and enlightened.
Praise the Lord.
To the limit.
It might be a good thing, but at the same time it kills of some possibility...... not unless you really push yourself to the limit.
Remember a slogan from my alma mater one year, "Never limit your challenge, challenge your limits." That's so true.
You always act withing your (so-called) "capabilities" that you give yourself a limiting mind. You dare not try this or that and you just let chances slip.
Why not? There's no harm to try. Man always have power that you dont even notice in the first place. You just need a motive.
Think of something that you want to strive for. And act accordingly.... push yourself to the limit (When you 'think' you've done your best, that's probably the time you should try harder...)
Even if you fail, nevermind. There're no harm at all, you are still the original you.... but if you have made some progress, then next time you know, you're better than what you think you are.
You dont need to trust me. Just try this method and you know i'm not lying.

Responsibility.
I'm a dentist now....
Remember in Spiderman movie, "With great powers came great responsibility". Starting to feel it now.....
Or is it like the Superhero movies, "With great power came beautiful gals."?
I certainly hope for the latter ^^
Evolving, Evolution.... it's all part of life.

Packing up.
Every item you throw away seems to carry a bit of the past, may it be happy or sad feelings....
Subconciously, i put all the items that can trigger my emotion most in the deepest corner of my drawer.... such is a chance that i must unearth those memories... there are just too many of them...
願我可以學會放低你...

Packing up.
How come such a tiny room can store so many junks and stuff?
Seems like an eternity before i can get all my things packed.

Regrets.
Should have done this; Should not have done that..... voices keep screaming in my head when i look back in my university life.
The closer and closer I'm walking to this unknown society, the more i miss the relative sheltered uni life.
Feeling is so bad, when you see your old faults, and at this time you can no longer do things to improve them.... you can just moan and feel the pain.
Remember a friend once said, "It's the little regrets that complete a life." Didnt have much feeling on it before.... but it's such a good wisdom.
Saw a couple of movies regarding time travel lately.... is it really possible? Can i change the past and live in a more ideal environment? Or will i end up with more misery by changing the past? I dont know..... This is why life is so much fun.
"Lord I'm doing, all I can...... To be a better man."
PS. Sorry about your great loss this jan, I can feel the same... sorry I'm not even there. I hope you see this.

Abandon.
Finally.... it's been one month since my graduation (counting from the day that i passed exam).... nothing much have been done.... just living a kind of 'retired' life... doing nothing in particular.... that's a kind of life that i've lived for a long long time.....
I start to get bored.... Still searching for my own 'road'..... in what direction should i go to? Am i heading for disaster? I dunno... but this saying is so true, "You can't get anywhere if you don't have a place in mind."...... seems like it's the time i make up my mind then.
Watched an excellent movie tonight, "Batman - The Dark Knights"..... really cool stuff. Ignore the disastrous 'Batman and Robin' and 'Batman Returns' film.... this new one is of totally different genre.... Thrilling action, check. Love plot, check. Perfect cast, check. Special effects, check. Deep character describtion, check..... what else are you looking for in a movie? I especially love the twist in the plot by the 90 minutes mark.... if the movie ends there, it'd be perfectly okay for a 70 marks movie.... but the additional 60 minutes fully complete the movie, bringing the climax to the extreme with a good ending (pretty unlike the last movie that i watch, "The Happening")..... Just perfect....... It's really a shame that Heath Ledger committed suicide after this movie.... is he... too deep in this Joker character? Jack Nicholson and Heath Ledger truely give the essence to this otherwise flat character... completing it....
Some quotes that i like from the movie. Most of them are spoken by Joker
"Why so Serious?"
"Madness is just like gravity.... sometimes, all you need to do is to give it a little push..."
"I believe whatever doesn't kill you simply makes you... stranger."
This is from Harvey Dent, "You either die a hero or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain."
All so memorable quotes.....
Sorry I've bored you with so many batman stuff... just listen to my advice... watch it soon or you'll regret it.
Till next time.
PS. Happy Birthday to Ewing, my dear ex-floormate.
PS2. Happy Birthday to Sara, my beloved friend.

A limit.
Been lazy lately..... I'm putting a limit to myself.... my current way of living can only continue till August... or else I'll be in great trouble......
Feeling the stress of job hunting now....

Hangover.
Everyday i woke up with a bad bad hangover...
Life's fun.... but for how long can i stay this way?
Starting to feel the urgency of finding a job.
The Cranberries - Linger
"Will you still love me in the Morning?"
"Forever and ever, Babe."
Quotes from Movie "Click"
Linger - The Cranberries
If you, if you could return
Don't let it burn, don't let it fade
I'm sure I'm not being rude
But it's just your attitude
It's tearing me apart
It's ruining everything
And I swore, I swore I would be true
And honey so did you
So why were you holding her hand
Is that the way we stand
Were you lying all the time
Was it just a game to you
But I'm in so deep
You know I'm such a fool for you
You got me wrapped around your finger
Do you have to let it linger
Do you have to, do you have to
Do you have to let it linger
Oh, I thought the world of you
I thought nothing could go wrong
But I was wrong
I was wrong
If you, if you could get by
Trying not to lie
Things wouldn't be so confused
And I wouldn't feel so used
But you always really knew
I just wanna be with you
And I'm in so deep
You know Im such a fool for you
You got me wrapped around your finger
Do you have to let it linger
Do you have to. do you have to
Do you have to let it linger
And I'm in so deep
You know I'm such a fool for you
You got me wrapped around your finger
Do you have to let it linger
Do you have to, do you have to
Do you have to let it linger
You know I'm such a fool for you
You got me wrapped around your finger
Do you have to let it linger
Do you have to, do you have to
Do you have to let it linger

Just another rainy night.
When will all these bad weather end?
I use to love Summer.... but i started looking forward to Autumn already. (Wanna buy a trench coat from Zara, it's so gorgeous.... though a bit expensive)
Got a lot of stuff on my buying list.... to name a few, a new shade, a stereo, computer, business attire, cufflinks.... wow that's a lot already, not to mention the forseeable 'entertainment fee'..... gosh.... need to find money quick.
Dont know why but feel very interested to go for an outward bound.... might be a good experience....

Keep Running.
This is my Nike ID, it kept record of my running profile.... Do visit me there from time to time... (The records are quite laughable..... but i'll only get better through time)
It's an other long while since I wrote here... too much has been bothering my mind... expecially now with no more excuses or procrastination.... I must think for my futher career.... gosh... big headache.
Obssessed with Rubik's Cube right now..... it's like a pandora's box.... so much pain locked inside the tiny cube when you cant solve it.....
Gotta do a lot of things... but just too tired to do them right now....

The Graduate.
Good news and bad news... Good one is.... I've finally graduated, I'm now a dentist and my previous 5 years are all history in my life, no more 9 o'clock lesson~~ Bad news is... I'm now officially 'Unemployed' and there is no excuse for me to fool around..... I still have to wake early for work when i find one.... probably nothing much has changed.
This week was spent unexceptionally idle.... did not arrange myself for any work or gatherings.... everyday is just staying at hall reading books, watching movies and occassionally went for a jog (i found that jogging to cyberport is a great idea, which i can take a break at cyberport for a movie and come back again~) Currently, I've watched 12 movies since 2 days ago, notable mention include "Wanted" by Morgan Freeman and Angelina Jolie (which turns out to be a B movie..... wasted), "Enchanted" (which is quite good), "Happy Endings" by Maggie Gyllenhaal (not bad, Maggie got a role in the upcoming Batman movie too..... can't wait to see), "The Happening" by Mark Wahlberg and directed by Night Shyamalan (director of "Village" and "Sixth Sense") (Interesting first half.... poor ending.... What's happening to Hollywood production lately?), Animation "Flushed Away", British film "Hot Fuzz" and couple others.... Man... that's what i called a HOLIDAY.... hope my holiday can go indefinitely.... I still got tonnes of collection at my place now. (Not to mention the soon to be released film like "Nim's Island"... the girl Abigail Breslin is so cute)
Hong Kong seems to be raining nonstop lately.... ruined all my plans to go outdoor..... I'm now developing a fat tummy.... got to have more exercise and get rid of those annoying fat cells....
Expecting to watch "Kung Fu Panda" with my three lovely cousins tomorrow.... How nice it'd be if i have my own family and have a family day on Sunday.... look forward to it.....
Planning for a trip (long or short, doesnt matter....) Anyone interested to join me? Give me a call.
Bored to death lately....... If you have anything fun to do... I'm ready~~
Uptown Girl - Billy Joel
I now see.... This is one of my favourite song.... and never imagine it's by Billy Joel.
為你寫詩 - 吳克群
Lovely Lyrics.
愛情是一種怪事 我開始全身不受控制
愛情是一種本事 我開始連自己都不是
為你我做了太多的傻事 第一件就是為你寫詩
為你寫詩 為你靜止 為你做不可能的事
為你我學會彈琴寫詞 為你失去理智
為你寫詩 為你靜止 為你做不可能的事
為你彈奏所有情歌的句子 我忘了說 最美的是你的名字
Honesty - Cover by Maggie Gyllenhaal
She's such gorgeous actress. Can't wait to see her in the new Batman Movie.

Just The Way You Are - Billy Joel
Don't go changing, to try and please me
You never let me down before
Don't imagine you're too familiar
And I don't see you anymore
I wouldn't leave you in times of trouble
We never could have come this far
I took the good times, I'll take the bad times
I'll take you just the way you are
Don't go trying some new fashion
Don't change the color of your hair
You always have my unspoken passion
Although I might not seem to care
I don't want clever conversation
I never want to work that hard
I just want someone that I can talk to
I want you just the way you are.
I need to know that you will always be
The same old someone that I knew
What will it take till you believe in me
The way that I believe in you.
I said I love you and that's forever
And this I promise from the heart
I could not love you any better
I love you just the way you are.

The fun of life.
Looking at the natural disaster that happen everywhere this year, who can have even the slightest clue of what's going to happen the next second?
How pathetic.
I woke up today with a bad bad fever.... got a temperature up to 104F now.... bad headache.... I wouldnt mind this condition on any other day.... but today it's my final exam.... that's bad....
Just be calm and do my best.... cause this is also part of my life.....
It's raining so hard outside.... who knows... maybe it's another black rainstorm day... I'll just live and see.

孫燕姿 - 我不難過
It's another rainy morning, and my mind cant resist to be sentimental.... it may not be bad to do so once in a while....
My life.... is far from complete, ever since 2 years ago...
With old memories haunting me since then... I feel, i have lost the ability to love....
It will all get better in time. I think, time has worked its magic and i feel like a different person now.... Life has to move on...
Finally walking out of my own cave.
I look forward to my new life.
And Goodbye to my dearest. Take care and best of luck to you. Still missing you all the times.
開始懂了...
就讓我走 讓我開始享受自由
回憶很多 你的影子也會充滿我生活
I hate raining....
Still managed to exercise myself a bit for an indoor football game..... though it's only 1 hour but i feel exhausted already.... must train up myself on the endurance part....
Gaming and gaming with floormates yesterday and today.... um... let me seek for something more productive to do tomorrow.

Life to look forward to.
Finally enjoyed some quality life in 2 months.
Went for a movie with friends, "Be Kind Rewind" by Jack Black.... he's kind of cool and talented. Quite a decent movie~
Afterwards I went for a tea at Australian Dairy Company in Jordan..... its fried egg is still the best..... cant resist the urge to order for 2 more egg sandwich.... so full~~
Despite for the fact that I've only napped for a few minutes in the last night, i still manage to meet up with Jeff in TST for a brief chat. Lovely
Night was spent with a huge reunion..... all 6 generations of my hall father and sons and daughters and minors (the list goes too long here) were present and we had a great time.... especially glad to see Crystal, Koo, and Dorothy tonight, for they are my beloved partner during O camp..... I'm already looking forward to our next reunion.
Scheduled a soccer match tomorrow, it's been too long since i move my old, fat bottom for sports..... tomorrow is such a great chance. (gotta score some goals tomorrow)
Yea, now i feel a bit like summer...... 2 weeks from now and i can fully enjoy the long long summer... Cheers~~
PS. Frankly, I'm not too fond of cockroaches..... I'm not particularly gutful or brave but when somebody can think of you when they're in need, there is no valid reason to reject them right? Luckily the mission is accomplished with me fainting and the enemy target is killed in action..... phew.... it's such a big monster.

Final Final Exam Paper 2.
Still got something to read before leaving.
Didnt sleep last night.... still haunted by a dream i had long long ago... waking up only to find myself late for exam (glad this fear shall soon be over.... there ain't many written exams that i'll take in my life)
Feeling okay, not too tired.... a can of red bull shall get rid of all signs of fatigue (at least till the end of exam)
Shall cook myself a good breakfast and get myself ready.
Wish me luck.

心裡沒底...
Here I come, heading straight to disaster, ill-equipped with dental knowledge.
Luck is exactly what i needed.
Achievements? Failures?
Looking back in my life (24 years and 40 days to be exact)... What have i done in those years?? Take an average HongKonger's expectancy... I have wasted close to one third of my life already... Gosh... I feel bad.
Mistakes I have made a few. I lacked the determination to finish a job properly.... only moaning about my life without really thinking what I can do to make my life better... I should have fought for myself harder...
Am I, going to be like this for the rest of my life?
Dont know why such thought only come up when I'm in shortage of time (for example, like reading something totally alien 6 hours before the final exam)...
I guess, if I can make it through this exam. That'd be the greatest achievement in my life.... Only spending hours for my revision..... I will not call myself suicidal (cause that sound too serious... but i guess I'll be a dead man should I spend more time in books)..... but certainly self-destructive....
I'm heading for disaster, cheers ^^
I'm extremely unstable for the time being.... hope I'll muster the courage to write after tomorrow's paper...

Green Day - Boulevard of Broken Dreams
No song sing better to my heart right now than this~
I walk a lonely road
The only one that I have ever known
Don't know where it goes
But it's home to me and I walk alone
I walk this empty street
On the Boulevard of broken dreams
Where the city sleeps
And I'm the only one and I walk alone
I walk alone
I walk alone
I walk alone
I walk a...
My shadow's the only one that walks beside me
My shallow hearts the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there would find me
'Til then I walk alone
I'm walking down the line
That divides me somewhere in my mind
On the border line of the edge
And where I walk alone
Read between the lines of what's
Fucked up and everything’s all right
Check my vital signs to know I'm still alive
And I walk alone
I walk alone
I walk alone
I walk alone
I walk a...
My shadow's the only one that walks beside me
My shallow hearts the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there would find me
'Til then I'll walk alone....
I walk alone
I walk a...
I walk this empty street
On the Boulevard of broken dreams
Where the city sleeps
And I'm the only one and I walk a..
My shadows the only one that walks beside me
My shallow hearts the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there would find me
'Til then I'll walk alone
So frustrated...
Dont know where to head to.
Dont know where I belong to.
It's just darkness that I'm facing...
Cannot turn back.... I can only walk the unknown path... alone.
Feel so lost.
