洋蔥 - 丁噹/楊宗緯





如果你願意一層一層一層的剝開我的心
你會發現 你會訝異
你是我最壓抑最深處的秘密

如果你願意一層一層一層的剝開我的心
你會鼻酸 你會流淚
只要你能聽到我看到我的全心全意

Last week.

Last week was okay... nothing too much...

Everyday it's just as busy as before, or as lazy...

Nothing much had been done... and I'm still in the same happy/unhappy stage.

=

Saturday... I was supposedly having dragon boat training... but I really couldnt believe all of them didnt show up in the last minute.... what's the point of having training?

Saturday night spent with Jeff... who's facing his own problem lately. All the best dude.

Had a movie with him that night, "Horrible bosses".... a brainless but hilarious one.... not too bad, though it'd be inappropriate to watch it with someone who might not view it in the same light :P

=

Been unsettled by a message.... am I... thinking too much?

Clues.... I need them most.

=

My cousin Ben is now back in Hong Kong for his holiday.... he's grown into a fine, handsome gentlemen.... I cant imagine 13 years ago I was the big bro who held his hands and lead him everywhere...

Suddenly... I felt old.

=

It's really great spending time with the family once in a while.... yum cha, usual sunday afternoon at uncle Patrick's place.... happy hour drink followed by hot pot.... no wonder I'm gaining weight fast.

=

For many reasons... we did not meet...

But next time?

Nothing on you - B.o.B. and its cover.



Weekend

Friday, not a productive day as my heart has already drifted away.

Nothing too much....

=

Saturday, enjoyed a good sleep till past noon.

Really, abundant and quality sleep that I crave for long long time.

Refreshed.

=

Dinner with Sally and James at Amici, Langham Place. In case you dont know, Amici is the gathering place for Liverpool fans.... I've never watched a liverpool match with so many fans together.... felt so at home.

Liverpool, with luck, beat Arsenal 2-0 away... any game with Liverpool triump is a good game :)

Apart from the game, it's great chatting with Sally and James. Congratulation to both for their career and life progression... Seems I got to work hard to catch up with them.

Friends, good food over a glass of cocktail. It's just an excellent Saturday night.

=

Sunday, sports day.

Head out for gym with bro in causeway bay. Some two hours non-stop training followed by a good sauna and then a big feast in Sai wan... it's just great.

Too bad good times dont last long.... it's monday again.

Take care and will write soon.

=

Suddenly... questioning if I'm heading in the right direction... clues, where's the clues? What's on your mind?

A break from work...

It's so hard to squeeze time in the daily routine... but meeting friend is still a must.

Dated Jeff out for dinner on a good Wednesday night.

Thanks for the souvenir from Japan. I'm sure I have your and the temple's blessing already.

=

Thursday, bro is back... it's good to see him.

=

Tomorrow is Friday... looking forward to weekend.

Finally there's some break through in work... I just hope things can settle down as soon as possible.

Boss joke.

Saw a good one on the web.

When the body was first created, all the parts wanted to be Boss.

The brain said, "I should be Boss because I control all of the body's responses and functions."

The feet said, "We should be Boss since we carry the brain about and get him to where he wants to go."

The hands said, "We should be the Boss because we do all the work and earn all the money."

Finally, the asshole spoke up. All the parts laughed at the idea of the asshole being the Boss. So, the asshole went on strike, blocked itself up and refused to work.

Within a short time, the eyes became crossed, the hands clenched, the feet twitched, the heart and lungs began to panic, and the brain fevered.

Eventually, they all decided that the asshole should be the Boss, so the motion was passed. All the other parts did all the work while the Boss just sat and passed out the shit!

Moral Of The Story: You don't need brains to be a Boss - any asshole will do.

Dragon Boat and Liverpool...

Saturday is supposed for sleep...

But unfortunately, after taking up the dragon boat team.... saturday is spent on training...

Very tired.... on every muscle...

=

Suddenly have an urge to watch football, afterall, it's the new season of English Premier League.

The kick off was between Liverpool Home and Sunderland.

Being a Liverpool fans, I went for a quiet pub to watch the game.

The firt half was good, seeing Charlie Adam serving in a superb free kick and scored by Luis Suarez is simply a moment of joy...

But when sebestian larsson scored the equalizer in second half.... my heart sank.

1-1... points dropped.

=

Supporting Liverpool is like falling in love with a bad girl.

Charming in everyway... but not dependable...

Whenever you're committed.... she broke your heart...

Once again, I was deeply hurt...

Fighting alone.

I thought I was going to rant in my own place...

I was assigned with a mammoth task, some unfinished business, something I'm not familiar with and which I certainly hate, with little resources or time, nor guidance or support...

I was so mad that I kept myself in my room.... like an asylum... a mental one...

My thought tell me some instruction I received was utterly wrong...

But it's an order nonetheless...

Intended to have issues clarified but the boss just present me with more problem...

What's going on?

=

Felt pretty grim the whole day.

My mood was even more badly affected by the fact that I was 'assigned' to be the dragon boat team coordinator... a post that hardly anyone wish to do...

My job was to urge unwilling people to attend boring training... and when the boss feels like training, to mount a cover-up and pretended that all is fine.... of coz, to entertain the boss as well...

On one hand, some may say it's a good way to get to the boss... but be frank... I dont give a damn how they see me... why cant we work without all these relationship and prejudice but to focus on work alone?

=

I got so much to rant about...

So many work left on my desk...

But when I see your message, you have reminded me of something... something I use to say and do,

"What the heck..."

"Work is only important when there is life"

I seems to have lost my life in work... and it's time I rediscover it~

Thank you so much for being with me tonight, Holly Brown Cafe at K11. A wonderful dessert and a nice chat...

Do you know? You've got an aura with you... calming presence.

I knew you are facing difficult times at work too. Take care and support as always.

When will I see you again?

Procrastination... as usual.

Got a bunch of files on my desk...

I'm getting depressed...

Really... I dont care any longer... I just want to switch post.

=

Leaving on time is my goal everyday... pathetic?

I am just frustrated with everything lately...

Is it my problem?

=

It rained so hard during lunchtime today... felt extremely bad as I was out in Central with Kennon and Archie... Lovely lunch at Hard Rock Cafe.... I really needed a break.

=

I was assigned as the dragon boat team captain for the upcoming race in October... a bit stressed... will I be able to please the boss? (yes, the goal of the competition was not about winning... but letting the boss 'have face'...

Um... make or break again.

=

Dunno why... but I can feel your stress (probably because I'm stressed too).

You must feel bad about the things happening on you lately... Just stay tough and I'm sure you'll make it through.

Will be by your side supporting you, anytime.

Work and life balance.

Boss is away for the week... and my productivity raised considerably...

It's working non-stop lately... dont know why there are so many work...

But doing files single-mindedly can reach a Zen stage... ignoring all other distraction...

If I can survive this week, probably a brighter future is waiting for me soon.

=

Weekend... a Dixit weekend....

Very fun.

I'm so into card games lately.

=

So close; yet so far.

糖兄妹 - 我最愛糖 Live



Dont know why, but it'd be very nice if I can see this band performance while I'm having a drink at Stanley Main Street...

The two matched so much.

Focus.

If one focus hard enough... there's hardly any impossible task...

I had such a day... doing nothing but to clear the files in intray...

It's a painstaking process.... but a must too.

=

Looking forward to weekend already.

王心凌/林俊傑 - 當你





"當你的眼睛瞇著笑 當你喝可樂當你吵
我想對你好 你從來不知道 想你想你 也能成為嗜好
當你說今天的煩惱 當你說夜深你睡不著
我想對你說 卻害怕都說錯 好喜歡你 知不知道"

Never lose faith.

Fate is such funny thing.

"I miss you, but I missed you."

This just took place too many times in my life.

=

Just when I'm about to lose all faith... you are there to save.

What must I do? - The Corrs.

You and Me - Olivia Ong.

Two Daniel Powter Songs.



"Best of Me"



"Lose to win"

I love especially the latter.

P.S. Kennon, this song suits you too.

Weekend.

The 'Just FXXK it' attitude is probably needed in order to survive my job.

Despite the deadline looming closer by the minute, I manage to get off work on time on a good Friday evening.

"Why so serious?"

It's not a joke. JOKER is probably the smartest person on earth who've experienced it all.

=

Had a wonderful weekend.

Saturday lunch I had my northern exploration... all the way to Tuen Mun just so me and Alvin can mess up Sam's kitchen.

It's a bit like Master Chef... have to cook some delicious dish in limited time and equipments... but we're so good at it.

The meal lasted from 3 till 7 that day... We even have 冬瓜盅... is it a bit too luxurious?

But anyway... it's such a good and relaxing afternoon.

=

Later that night I went for Kennon's 'house warming' at Cheung Sha Wan. First of all, I must congratulate him for being a 'snail with shell' at such young age. No matter what lies ahead, just trust in yourself cause the qualities are there inside you.

We've got 10 people in one living room... blathering, mj... it's so much fun.... it's been so long that I have the feeling of 'hall pantry' somewhere else.

It's a sleepless night... but I love it.

=

Sunday...

Nothing much... a bit frustrated.
