Man in the Mirror

When you look into the mirror, have you ever thought of whether you know the people in the mirror or not? How well do you understand yourself?

Sometimes, I do see a stranger in the mirror, he's not the one that I think I know, he's not that simple, innocent and good guy anymore, in the mirror, I can only see a superficial, hypocratic and mean guy there, why?

Did the job change me into a different person or I changed to accomodate the real world, I don't know, what kind of "transformation" is it? Am I finally living in the "adult" world which wars are around everyday? Or am I just too innocent to live in this world? I don't know. Why do we need to please someone even though we don't like them? Is it really that sad that we can't express our feeling in front of others? How come there are so many people need to be pleased? Why? What made these people changed? Power and Money? I don't know.

Somehow, it's really sad we have all changed to people like that. Shame. Shame and Shame.

What's simpilicity, it's not a trend, it's a living style, a habit, we don't need to learn that, we came and will leave this world in the most simple way. Mind it.

Changes

As time flies, people change, it's very important to position yourself well, you are the one who control your life, but not being controlled by the surroundings.

I have seen many people getting lost when they immerse into different culture, they follow what others are doing, they have no idea, no direction, have no clue on what they are doing, they forget their "origin", they just simply get "LOST"...

It's even more pathetic if one change cos of their work, yes, a lot of prople just don't realise they becaome such an animal. Living in this world, working for the living is defo not easy, but be what you are, stabbing someone's back for your own benefits, putting trap for someone, 100% not righteous, alright, if you wanna "get rid of" someone, show them your "power", show them your "ability", let them shut up themselves, this is more noble.

When you are in doubt,

1) Try to be alone and calm down

2) Find out the reason behind

3) Sort that out, if not, go and discuss with your friends, friends are always good listener and advisor, even though they may not fully understand your situation, at least you feel more relieved after talking with them

4) Be true to yourself, you always have an answer or solution in your mind already, you kow what's going on, it's just whether you wanna accept it or not only

5) Surely, you can find the way out, if not, bare in mind :Everything will work out fine", there is nothing in the world that can't be solved.

Travelling - Part 5

After working in GG for nearly 2 years, sometimes I was just into the GG mood, being very picky and a bit arrogant somehow... that's what I classified as a kind of deficiency of being not able to "switch off" from my work. Even when I was in England, I did suffer from this "disease" as well...

After spending one night in Leeds, it's time to go to Manchester. Maybe I didn't expect to meet so many CHINESE in England, when I met my friend's Chinese friends, I had a strange feeling, I don't know why, just feeling strange, but anyway, they were my friend's friends.
I always think the student dorm in England should be BIG, but once I stepped into the room, how come it's of the same size as that in Hong Kong, a bit surprised (not disappointed, as I live in a very small apartment in Hong Kong). I was happy enough to stay in my friend's place, old Chinese saying "Rely on your family at home, reply on friends outside home", I am really happy that I have so many friends in England.

It's even happier to meet friends that haven't met for long time outside Hong Kong, and good to see that they have had good time as well...

Liam and Vic - my friends living in Manchester now, I met them in Hong Kong. It's so unbelievable that I can see them again in England.

On the first night. We (Me, Andrew, Liam and Vic + some other Chinese) all went to a Chinese karaoke "restaurant" in the China Town, not sure why Andrew brought me to place like that, probably he thought that's a very special place, yes, maybe for WESTERNERS, not Hong Konger like me... haha... but I did enjoy the time there.

Then the time has come, we headed to a place called "Fifth Avenue", probably one of the biggest student clubs in town, packed with students, with loads of cheap vodka red bull. Though I never fancy red bull, but just 1 pound per glass, what can you complain? NO...

It's good place to go when you get rat arsed, if not, it's just soso. Once I stepped it, I felt like I was in a club called "Hollywood" in Pattaya, the only different thing was all the Thai sluts were replaced by those Blondies, haha, sounded good. But I was not into a good mood to "hunt" that night, I felt a bit bored, I don't know, probably just too stuffy and hot inside, can;t really breathe. Maybe if I were 4 years younger, I could get into the mood. Or maybe the people met there were not that "sophisticated" and "elegant" as I met in those "fashion parties" in HK, that's why it made me a bit hesitated to drink and dance. Sounded like a prick, right?: But if you work in the same industry like me, you will know what I mean, it's just so different, and somehow it's just too hard to explain that to the "outsider", of course, I try hard to be myself, but as I have said earlier, sometimes, I did suffer from this "disease"...

Anyway, good night in Manchester, good enough for me.

Travelling - Part 4

Journey to the SOUTH

After spending a night in YARM, time to go to YORK, I only stayed there for several hours, but it's a very impressive place, the historical buildings, the street, everything was so good... I especially fancied the York Dungeon, it's so funny inside, the sickle doctor, the vampire and the crazy woman there, shame it's rainy day, if not... it will definitely my favorite town / city.

OK... here comes to LEEDS, Andrew and I stopped by cos of BEX, I didn't really have time to tour round Leeds, only been to several clubs, the Arch, Black Box...etc... can't really remember the name, but lots of good fun til we went back to a friend's place.

Maybe Bex was too pretty or maybe that 2 brutes were really too hunger for women, I am not sure. But that 2 brutes just started to suggest to have 3 some or "new thing" with Bex, it's suddenly became kind of very dirrty talk... so dirty that I can't really stand for... As to avoid Bex being raped by those 2 animals, we both called the taxi and sailed back home... leaving the drunken Drew at their place... at least I think he would be safe as he's not a "hot girl", haha...

Yes... sounded a bit horrifying, fortunate that everyone was SAFE... and I learnt a new phrase "Birthday suit" (something like that I think..)

Travelling - Part 3

After a long break, here comes the Part 3...

Last time, talked about my first day in England and got lost for nearly an hour in the Heathrow airport and outside the Victoria station... ok... after travelling for 20 hours on flight, coach and train, I finally arrived my first "destination" - YARM...

I was blocked by a group of primary school brutes when I got off from the train, it seemed to me that they didn't have any intention to let the foreigner like me to get off, I didn't know. I wore my black velvet jacket, with the skinny jeans and YSL sunglasses, shining like a star, walking out of the train, breathing the fresh air under the warm sun... I loved it. Finally and finally, I arrived when I supposed to be. Thanks GOD.

I was so happy when I saw my friends there, it's still so unbelieveable that I was in England, at YARM, having dinner, and drinking with my friends, so unreal. Seemed like dreaming. My first night in England, and so many funny things happened.

"Flying fries" - I don't know, when me, Andrew, Larry and his dog went to the farm to play, a group of "cow flies" just kept on flying above me, following me wherever I went, shit, I hated that... maybe they have never "smelled" any EASTERNER, and they were really curious about me or maybe I smelled like a cow, I don't know, they just flew over my head, annoying me alot, but anyway, Drew and Larry did find that's really "FUNNY"... yes, whatever...

"I can't get my eyes off her tits", haha... She's such a charming and gorgeous girl. Who's she? That hot stuff was my friend's friend's girlfriend, the low cut white top with the jade necklace, so "powerful" and drew all my attention to her jade and her unbelieveably good body. Oh my GOD, I should have come to England earlier and studied there, "TITS"... you just can't see so many "TITS" in Hong Kong...

We went to 2 bars that night and when we were in the 2nd one, that hot stuff (L) and I went to the bar table to get a bottle of RED wine, my favorite, woman and wine, we "disappeared" for 10 minutes, and her bf was really worried and of course, nothing happened, we waited at the bar table for the wine only... what's a shame...

YARM, I will defo go back again, I love the place and the people there, so UNBELIEVEABLE.

Headache

Oh My God, headaches again, I don't usually have headache unless I am really stressed.

I have been working on the f**king complicated EXCEL worksheets for days, everyone who work / worked with me before know that I am f**king bad in "figures"...I can't really stand for that... Oh My God...

"I think we need to talk about that", that's what my friend said when I called him tonight, haha... I nearly laughed out when I heard that, but I think I really need to talk about that... I just can't sit and put all my concentration in the EXCEL spreadsheets anymore, they are making me f**king sick... (vomitting)... My friend probably thought I worked too HARD, that's what I think as well...

Is there anything can make me better on those "figures"?

1) Money - then I can "out-source" my work to someone... haha... pretty smart, right?

2) Bill Gate - better ask him to "upgrade" and better "develop" the MS Office, especially that bloody EXCEL...

3) Promotion - If i get promoted, then I can delegate that bloody shit to someone... haha...

4) Quit my job - go to find a job that doesn't need to handle or face any figures

I can't really think of any sound ways to make me better on calculation, or maths, whatever, I am not good at that, and I have tried my BEST already... Maybe I need another BRAIN than the one I am using... haha... but I am OK with my brain right now, so better leave the idea of being better in maths... haha...

Anyway, i think it better for me to think of a job o get rid of my headache,

1) Panadol

2) Alcohol

3) Friends

4) SLEEPZZZZZZZZZZ

5) Fuck it, don't fucking think of your work once you are off... SWITCH OFF

Yes... switch off... defo the BEST way... haha

Nothing...

Suddenly, I can't think of anything to write. Before I logged in, I kept of thinking what to wtire and several issues came up. Once I am here, everything's gone, it's all blank in my mind, I have no idea on what to write and say...

Anyway, I am really happy that my friends do come here to read my blog and leave messages, it's really rewarding and motivating, especially for those who are not living in Hong Kong, this blog provides a platform to let them know what I think and what I am doing here, it's cool...

Hope all of you will come to read my blog again...

Cheers...
