    Randomness

    Warning:Today's entry will be a jumpy one so don't be surprise if you can't follow from one paragraph to the next. If you know me well, you will realize that's exactly how I think/talk....here they are - my random thoughs....
     
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Haven't updated for quite a while again but my life is still a MESS =_=. I don't want to grow up, I don't want to think about what car I want to/should get, about buying a place, about getting a mortgage and oh, planning for retirement, it's JUST TOO MUCH for me...........I have been trying to avoid doing all of the above and more and I think my hiding will have to come to an end today, wish me luck.
     
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
     
    Goal for March and beyond:
    To be able to put a stop to my clumsiness:
    Instead of constantly trying to openthe door of someone else's car;
    Instead of realizing that I have worn my jacket inside out;
    Instead of dropping things multiple times;
    I would want to change, I would want to be NEAT for the rest of my life......
     
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
     
    A Day on the Sky Train
    It was about two weeks ago when I took the skytrain to go home.
    So I got on the train at Granville station and saw a set of empty seats (two seats) and one of them was wet, I thought to myself, right on, I would take the seat next to the wet seat and I would get to sit by myself (which was a classic anti-social behaviour of mine).
    So I squeezed pass the seat which was wet then sat myself down...
    Then someone came along. From how he was dressed I think he was homeless, he saw the wet seat and then proceeded to take another seat close to me and smiled at me, eyeing the wet seat beside me, I smiled back.
    Two seconds later, he bent down and was searching through his dusty backpack. He pulled some tissues from his backpack and proceeded to dry the wetness on the seat...
    Looking at what he did from the corner of my eye, I paused, was speechless and felt embarrassed..........=_=........and still am, I guess that's why I have chosen to write about it here....
     ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Night out with Leanne et al.
    Even though my life is as messy as can be, I had a great night out with Leanne, Kel and others on a Saturday. Met a few new friends, gotten back in touch with old ones, it was a great time. Please see my facebook for all those candid shots L took of me =_= (L, once again, you have ruined me!!!=P)
     
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
     
    Health
    I have always heard about how important health is, like how your health is like a ball made of glass, once you drop it, it breaks and can't be undone but I haven't realized the true meaning behind that until I was struck down by serious stomachache Thursday after lunch. I could barely sat straight for the rest of the day-_- I hope it's not Ulcer but it could possibly be as I haven't been eating right and eating on time.
    To you my friend who may be reading this, try to eat right and eat on time! Just make sure that you take good care of yourself before anything else. Don't be another me =)
     
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Conclusion
    I have no idea how to conclude my entry as it lacks a central theme. Anyway, that's it, my randomness for the last little while.

    The Devil's Advocate

     
    The number of people who are sent to Hell has been decreasing lately, the Devil calls for a meeting and three of his advisors showed up.
     
    The Devil asked his advisors, "what can we do to bring more people down here?"
     
    The first one said, "I will convince them that there is no Hell"
     
    The second one said, "I will convince them that there is no Heaven"
     
    The Devil shook his head, uncontent with the responses.
     
    Finally, the third advisor spoke, "Well, I will tell them that both Heaven and Hell exist, but I will convince them that there is always 'tomorrow'".
     
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
     
    I think the Devil's Third Advocate has been extremely successful, at least he has gotten me into the trap of the "tomorrows".

    Break from all of my crammings

    6月17日 聰明能幹 


    6月17日出生的人做事認真,不論外表看業多麼輕鬆自在,他們其實總是專心朝目標前進,努力作個負責任的家人及朋友。他們給人的印象似乎是屬於善於安排生活的人,事實上,由於對自我的要求太高,可能對他們身邊的已造成嚴重的負擔。如果有忠心的跟隨者或部屬,他們的道德標準可能會更高,而且非常嚴厲,要求絕對的服從。

    因為他們心思和行動都很敏捷,所以對於一起工作的同伴,會顯得有些不耐煩。通常他們不適合當老師,因為缺乏向學生講解的耐心與體貼。另外,當工作一團亂時,他們絕不會閒在一旁呆,只要一眨眼的功夫,他們就會把事情處理好了。

    當他們與別人爭論時,相當擅長於施加壓力以說服對方。不論外表或內在性格他們都是很強硬的人,喜歡迫使他人依照自己的意思執行。在他們這中發展較好的人,在自己有專長的領域深具影響力,即使退休之後也仍然如此。

    大部分這天出生的人都有超乎常人的體能跟心智能力,至於情感表現和直覺觀察的能力就不那麼出色了。由於情緒起伏變化大,所以旁人很難與他們相處,更別提親近他們的內心世界。有時候他們會刻意與人保持距離,有時候又變得熱情洋溢;可能前一秒鐘態度成熟,下一秒鐘卻急躁得像孩子,所以不太容易獲得別人的信任。

    6月17日出生的人會是優秀的企劃、設計者和旅行家。他們方向感清晰,對現實空間也很有概念。某些情況下,他們甚至會因為太前衛、方法太獨特,反而把事情弄得太複雜,像缺乏專業素養一般。所以,在這天出生的人應該瞭解到,要證實自己的方法正確可行,人們才會瞭解他們的想法。

    大家都知道他們誇張的性格--為了達到目的,可能會編出一大套故事。他們之中的確有少數人因為欺騙而得不償失。玩任何遊戲都應該光明磊落,因此6月17日出生的人要盡量避免賭博,即使心思再聰明、手段再高明,也可能有失算的時候,若因此沉淪到不擇手段的地步,就太不值得了。另外,在這天出生的人,就算沒有天賦,也能成為全方位的藝術家。而且,不論他們對道德的看法如何,總是能吸引大批的支持者。

    幸運數字和守護星
    6月17日出生的人,受到數字8(1+7=8)以及土星的影響。土星有嚴肅的傾向,再加上水星(雙子座的主宰行星)的影響,就更加重6月17日出生的人激烈、嚴厲的批判性。數字8則代表物質與精神世界間的矛盾衝突,所以受它影響的人通常較孤獨,而且容易沉淪。

    健康
    因為偏好物質和感官的天性,所以無論是煙、酒、有害健康的食品或是任何可以帶來快樂的事,甚至是人際關係或性關係,他們者必須小心,以免上癮。他們在發號施令或追求目標時,意志非常堅定;而對控制自己的私慾,反而意志薄弱或根本缺乏鬥志。因此,他們應該要多培養這方面的意志力。這之中的問題常常在於他們沒弄清楚這些耽溺能對身心造成多大的傷害,或是他們根本就不在乎。固定的飲食及適度運動,這樣較穩定的生活習慣,可以長期有效地降低這些慾望,而且,現在有許多人想念耽溺不只是一種病因,而是體內一種化學物質失調的結果。

    建議
    不要太過安逸,要持續冒險。不可喪失彈性改變的能力,要隨時注意世界上發生的事。保持現金的靈活運轉。對新認識的朋友別太多疑。

    名 人
    亞當史密斯(Adam Smith)英國經濟學家、哲學有,著有《國富論》,這是政治經濟學的第一本巨著,支持自由貿易與放任的經濟政策。

    電影喜劇演員勞萊(Stan Laurel),生於英國,以「勞萊與哈台」聞名。

    13世紀英國國王愛德華一世(Edward I),有「黑王子」之稱,同時也是戰士。

    麥克琳托克(Barbara McClintock) 美國植物遺傳學家,81歲時成為第一位單獨贏得諾貝爾生理暨醫學獎的女科學家。

    巴拿馬拳擊選手杜蘭(Roberto Duran),世界輕量級、中量級拳擊冠軍,60公斤級的世界紀錄保持人。

    墨西哥總統波提洛(Jose Lopez Portillo)。

    塔羅牌

    大秘儀塔羅牌的第17張是「星星」,畫面上是一位赤身裸體的少女,在星空下,一邊把清新的池水澆灌在焦乾的土地上,同時用另一枝杓子使死水復甦。她代表世間生命的光榮,但也代表了受物質與感官的奴役。因此,天空的星星永遠在提醒她:別忘了還有一個更高層次的精神世界存在。

    靜思語

    尊敬路上遇見的人。

    優點
    具說服力、重物質、具有空間概念。

    缺點
    不易親近、耽溺、缺乏耐心。

    Hello Vancouver

    I have said hello to Vancouver about three weeks ago.
     
    1st week back home, I have managed to be sick for the entire week.
     
    2nd week back home, found this goodie called ppsteam and got addicted to watching dramas like "It started with a kiss". As a result of the above, I have almost gone blind and have managed to complete my CASB assignment just before the deadline and have sworn to God that the third week would be different.
    Went to fireworks (Mexico) with Lou and her "family" (yup, i was literally the only one out of five girls not to be related to Lou by blood, good times gals, and where are the pictures?)=)
    One note on Mexico, I have had low expectation because it was Mexico's first time in the game but I was BLOWN away, literally...Mexico rocked! And I hope that the poor Asian guy whose head got smashed at randomly by some drunk is doing better now.
     
    3rd week back home, finished "it started with a kiss", still am addicted to this whole webtv thingy and have managed to complete my assignment at the last minute again and yes, have sworn again that I wouldn't do it again =(. Also managed to record another song from the drama for my "lovely" yellowish space....
     
    Things to look forward to in the coming weeks, get back in touch with my friends, "cure" my addiction, start working out again and will try to start CASB "earlier" (<-- we will see about this one) and start writing again =).
     
    ps. my singing button has been pressed somehow so more songs to come, LOLZ, and well, too bad for your ears!!!!=)

    No Name

    In Guangzhou:
    I have spent about 7 days here, without the internet...Mainly ran errands with parents...finally met up with Rebecca, Jumping and Ying and visited the "City of Universities"...went shopping for 1 day, but what I called "day" was really hours.....
    Drank lots of nice home-made soups by my Grand Auntie, hohoho.....(did I mention I drank turtle soap)
    Trained my temper with the Chinese banking system in guangzhou and finally lost it in one of the branches...
    Wished to meet more of my friends in gz but it seemed that everyone was still writing exams, I may come back before I leave for Vancouver.
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    7 years ago, I left gz with 15 years of memories,
    7 years after, I came back, a stranger...
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
     
    In HangZhou
    Spent one day here, walked around "Xi Hu" (West Lake?). Really loved the city, I wouldn't mind living here at all...
    Ate the infamous "Xi Hu Chu Yu" (West Lake Sweet and Sour Fish), it fell below my expectation...
     
    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
     
    More in ShangHai
    Ate lots of Xiao Long Dumplings.......loved it.....yet hated some SH people's attitude........
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
     
    Some Updates
     
    I have passed CASB but have performed far below my expectation (lost several nights of sleep over this) but I have decided the best to cope with this is to work harder in the next module.........
    Tomorrow, I will be leaving for my hometown..................
    The Sun really has shared its love with me, now my arms and my face are tanned to the extent that my other unexposed body parts are distinctively different..lolz...
     
    June 26

    In Shanghai

    Yay, after 11.5 hours of plane ride =)
     
    I am finally in Shanghai.
     
    Downtown looks gorgeous, may be even better than downtown Vancouver.....almost all the builidings are designed with different themes and are able to give you visual excitements......
     
    However, the roads in Shanghai are really too "fast and furious".
    The people who can actually drive in SH are truely "superwomen/men". I would not dare to go on the roads here..
     
     
    Will update later =)

    Living Death

    What is the purpose of living,
    if it is more painful than death.
     
    Tell me that there is an equation,
    tell me that when xyz >= abc,
    it is time to let go and give up,
    when death and living equate.
     
    You will tell me,
    that life is too precious, that there are people,
    who care about you.
    I agree, even they really care,
    the hurt is going to be short term and
    then you will live on in their memories.
    They will move on, sooner or later.
     
    The worst state is a living death,
    on one hand, you belong to the world of the living,
    because you have a shell, a body that is like others,
    that breaths, that sees, hears but does not feel because all your happiness have been sucked by a vacuum.
    On the other hand, you belong to the world of the death,
    because you do not feel nor wish to live on.
    Therefore, you are trapped in the middle,
    living in your shell, feeling the death.
     
    When does death equate to living?
    Where is the line drawn,
    can we ever decide for ourselves,
    when to cross the line?

    總 理 : 加 拿 大 道 歉
    在 生 人 頭 稅 苦 主 及 遺 孀 獲 2 萬 元 賠 償

    (本報記者脫立新渥太華報道)聯邦總理哈珀昨日(22日)下午3點15分,在國會眾議院就加國歷史上對華人徵收人頭稅,表達「無保留的道歉」,並就《排華法案》給華人家庭造成的傷害,表達「最深的悲痛」。這是加國華人百年屈辱終獲洗雪的時刻,這是加國歷史值得記住的日子,這一天是2006年的6月22日。
    總理哈珀宣布﹕「今天我在這裏揭去一頁加拿大不幸的歷史。我們代表加拿大人民和政府,願意就人頭稅衷心向本國華裔道歉,並且為排斥華人移民的做法,表達最深切的悲痛。雖然加拿大法庭曾裁定人頭稅及移民禁令的實施是合法的,我們完全承擔道義上的責任,承認過去這些可恥的政策。加拿大蓄意針對華人而實施這些惡意的

    濟措施,歷時逾六十年長。這嚴重違背了公義,在道義上,我們是有義務去承認的。」
    揭去加國歷史不幸的一頁
    哈珀總理在國會發表針對人頭稅的正式道歉聲明之後,隨即在國會大廈內的鐵路會議室,接見了來自全國各地近200名人頭稅苦主、配偶和後人,以及全國各地的華人團體代表。來自安省的李龍基(106歲)、盤占元(88歲),譚源(84歲)、林培元(90歲),來自亞省的馬林笑容(88歲)、馬振悅(94歲)等六名仍在生的人頭稅苦主,由哈珀總理手中接過他本人親筆簽署的書面道歉信。
    來自多倫多的88歲的人頭稅納稅人盤占元,把隨同平反列車一路由溫哥華走到渥太華的太平洋鐵路『最後一根釘』轉交給總理哈珀。盤占元對總理說﹕「1885年,在太平洋鐵路完工之際,中國人沒有資格參加『最後一根釘』的安放儀式。儘管有成百上千的華工為了修建這條鐵路,為了加拿大建國的夢想付出了自己的生命。鐵路修完了,加拿大不再需要華人,也不想讓他們繼績留在這個國家,這樣才有了人頭稅。作為仍在生的人頭稅納稅人,我們今天把『最後一根釘』帶回國會,我們終於不再被排斥。」
    政府2,400萬設社區歷史責任項目
    祖裔部長小田隨即宣布,向全國仍在生的約20位人頭稅納稅人、約200位在生的人頭稅苦主的遺孀,每人作出20,000元的象徵性補償。其他賠償方案包括,政府設立總額為2,400萬元的「社區歷史責任項目」(community historical recogitionprogram),資助與加國戰時政策及移民限制有關的社區項目。其中250萬元確定用於華人社區社區用於紀念、表彰之目的。
    政府另設1,000萬元「國家歷史確認計劃」基金(national historical recognition program),用於與各有關團體共同推出的聯邦教育項目。上述個人賠償及項目基金預計由今年秋天開始實施

    Les Feuilles Mortes (Autumn Leaves)

    Took me a while to learn the French lyrics of the song..hopefully it didn't sound too bad....hope you will like it....

     

    When I was singing this song, I was picturing this girl/woman, wearing a black classy dress, sitting in a quiet corner of a bar by herself, with half a smoke left in her hand. She has bright red lips and a set of lazy, yet very appealing and mysterious eyes. Men can't help but stop and wonder about her...

     

    "Nat King Cole Autumn Leaves lyrics"

    (french lyrics by jacques prévert,
    English lyrics by johnny mercer,
    Music by joseph kosma)

    The falling leaves drift by the window
    The autumn leaves of red and gold
    I see your lips, the summer kisses
    The sun-burned hands I used to hold

    Since you went away the days grow long
    And soon I’ll hear old winter’s song
    But I miss you most of all my darling
    When autumn leaves start to fall

    C’est une chanson, qui nous ressemble
    Toi tu m’aimais et je t’aimais
    Nous vivions tous, les deux ensemble
    Toi que m’aimais moi qui t’aimais
    Mais la vie sépare ceux qui s’aiment
    Tout doucement sans faire de bruit
    Et la mer efface sur le sable les pas des amants désunis

    Count down to my PRC trip, 10 days and counting!
