How smart are dogs?

They are just extremely adorable.

Can't stop loving dogs :)

態度

由於夜了，所以在回家的路上經女人街都會看到一些經常出現的不合法的小攤子在賣小品如包包或是電話殼之類的。

十蚊有各式各類的包包，我好奇所以也走上前去（搏一搏看有沒有史努比）。

然後就有趣了。

一個國內的女人選了兩個包之後試圖用廣東話和賣包的香港人（約40歲女人）說“買兩個有冇平啲？”。但由於實在是說得太不像廣東話了賣包女聽不懂她只好用普通話說“買兩個可不可以算便宜一點呀”。賣包女直用廣東話很不耐煩地應了她說“冇得講價，買20個200個都冇得講”。

或許到這裡大家都會覺得以上對吧很不見外很正常。

但之後，賣包女就繼續和她的夥伴（另一個年齡相似的賣包女）不停地在討論……

“買兩個都要黎同人地講價，真喺搞笑”“咪就喺咯。佢以為買兩個大哂……”“要講咪俾佢講咯，都傻既……”…………

然後還有一堆我就不想繼續聽，反感，離開。

我沒有在偏護誰說話。只是覺得那個態度，真的有很大的進步空間，哦，當然這時候是在說那兩位賣包女。做賣東西或general一些是客戶服務的，態度不就應該善良嗎？討價還價本來就不是什麽很見怪的事情，誰去到哪裡都喜歡減價，買超過一件物品（甚至有時候只買一件物品）希望可以便宜一些些是個很正常的想法。那爲什麽人家只是問一問一句，你一定要反罵十句呢？是我就直接走掉不買了…難道這樣你做生意就會爽一些嗎？

哦，不說了。我想我平時也應該是經常被人罵到不像話的了，因為我也喜歡討價還價。呵，但……習慣就好。

題外話，最近的長命雨讓我有點想瘋掉了。但是否這樣……空氣中的污染，才會減少呢？

我喜歡，夕陽西下的陽光 J

Ashleigh and Pudsey

And so through facebook recommendations I ended up with this video:

And I got addicted definitely...and I saw more of their stunts...
Check out the Semi Finals and the full version of the Finals too :)
Simply amazing.
Yeah, I love dogs, and will never stop loving them.


Patty, I miss you a lot too.
Why didn't me and my sis train you to be someone like Pudsey when you were born? XD
LOL.

Lego Madness

And I never know that Hong Kong people can go so crazy over Lego.
It somewhat amazed me.

I saw this advert on Facebook yesterday and was struggling whether to go. Well, I would love to go as Lego is something pretty cool and I do play it a lot when I was young and well who knows I might pick up something cool and cheap through the warehouse sales and refresh my childhood memories. And the reason not to go? It's damn far away from my home and I'm a little worried that it might not turn out to be something as cool as I thought.

Still, I decided to go and I reached the venue at around 10.45am.
S>H>O>C>K>I>N>G. I'm no.693 in the line. 

 And I hear chatters around me saying that some people came to line up straight after the English Premier League match at 6am @.@ and it'll be at least another 2 hours to go at my current position. After much thinking, I decided...to stay, and chose to believe that it shouldn't take that long.

And what have I discovered?
- Almost everyone around me are super Lego fans.
- People can spend over HKD10000 on all these Lego products. (And that's the amount of cash they brought here lol as the sales only accept cash payments)
- People with large purchases needs to order a delivery van or at least need to have their own car to transport those Lego-s.
- The most popular Lego is the "Castle城堡" and the "Big Ship(?)帆船" which I have no clue at all but I keep hearing people discussing about those.

And so, just because I made all the way there and lined up for X hours, I got myself the spaceship set.... say "Yay!" to me! Haha.

[Seriously I went through a lot of drama before getting this set LOL]

An interesting Saturday

It is always exciting to know that you have a parcel waiting for you at the post office.

And thanks to Tim, for the postcard and for the shell made bracelet. I really appreciate it and I miss you guys a lot.

It has been a long time since I last volunteered.

My last involvement was the visit (Teaching Summer Institutes) in August 2011, where I taught F2-3 students in a primary school in Yunnan English and Computer. Ahh, I still remembered times setting questions and grading students' homework at 12am in our hostel room. I remembered the Yunnan Cross-bridge Noodles (過橋米線) too. Yummy. 

And yes it has been 9 months. Amazing 9 months. 

And today, I went to SoCO Hong Kong in Sham Shui Po to facilitate tutorial sessions for kids (mainly primary school students). This session was made known to me through my company's CSR department. And I'm happy to be here. I tutored a P3 student and to me, she is damn smart. She learn English pretty quickly and Chinese idioms that I barely remember myself learning.

It was a meaningful 1.5 hour spent and I'll definitely be back again.

And next, I decided to go collect my free bicycle :)

But damn, it's raining again. I originally thought of cycling back home from Jordan (2 stations away from home) but it doesn't seem possible so I decided to carry it back home. Well, moreover it is not properly set up when I collected it. I thought it wasn't a hard job but gosh....it's 15kgs and it nearly killed me while I try to carry it from the shop into the MTR and out from the MTR station and it was raining and I have to walk 20+minutes home. 

But it's a nice bicycle.

YAY! So I'll plan where to go cycle next.

 And then? After rain at 7pm....

純粹是個對話分享

我要分享一個讓我覺得很可笑的對話。

--------------------------

以上就是不只可笑也很膚淺的對話。當然，認識我的話當然知道那個很無奈的A君就是本人。之後其實還有一些無奈插曲但我不想說了。寫到這裡都已經是MS Word第七面了，全都發生在少過1小時以內。

更無奈的是，還有七次，我要來這裡做facial。

已經不是第一次了，被人這樣踐踏或說下去。啊，不可以這麼說。才不會被那麼low-b的傢伙踐踏。我只是純粹很無奈很想叫她收聲。然後心裡狂暴粗。但我沒什麼氣，可能已經放棄了這裡的人的思維，所以也不覺得有什麽值得氣的了。

哈。

And the first Saturday of May...

(And I realized that I have not been blogging much about my life in the year of 2012, but instead posted lotsa Mayday videos *winks*)

Supposed to be studying. Supposed. (okay who knows if it might or might not happen? LOLs)

It's Vesak Day in Malaysia. But Buddha's birthday in HK was last Saturday. Why such difference I have no idea. Wanted to go to a temple this morning but the weather wasn't good. Weird rain happening these days and it could get pretty annoying. Went out for facial appointment. And once again, another rather disappointing service experienced in this region.

People here are just too motivated for money, instead of satisfaction through happiness. 

Words couldn't simply describe it all, and I just felt so ....("XXXX"?) about it.

Saw a golden retriever on the streets. I so wana have a dog or at least Patty by me.

LOL Obviously this is no Golden Retriever....but a Huski equally adorable. MISSSS DOGSSS.

Gosh I have soooo much to do and time is just never enough. Weeeeeeekends are too short. Just too short for me to organize my photos from the Japan trip, upload photos from my company's annual dinner, recalculate expenses for the Japan trip, study, blog, house chores, get some nice sleep, write letters to the kids I met last summer etc etc etc etc etc.

TOO SHORT.

PENDEK.....

吃飯的時候看……

小時候吃晚飯都是傍晚七時左右，電視機會播放TVB劇，然後我和姐姐就會追著看。

長大了沒時間了慢慢也不在吃飯的時候看電視。

現在偶爾自己煮了飯要自己獨樂樂的時候家裡沒有電視機那要邊吃邊做什麽呢？

看五月天。

每次都有一些片段時很令我感動的……總覺得他們的故事好神奇。

嗯，所以在此和大家分享咯。

然後以下的又讓我看到喊“安可”的那一幕。又感動了。

不知道會迷于他們到什麽時候，但至少很迷的時候，他們讓我有了堅持夢想的勇氣。這樣…………挺好的。

末日願望

因為第二人生所以五月天去到很多各式各類的綜藝節目都會被問道自己的末日願望究竟是什麽。

有時候我自己也會想……………

有時候真的覺得末日就快來了，但從來沒有真正想過末日前夕到底要幹什麼。

會不會像阿信那樣……睡過去就算了呢？呵呵呵。

嗯…超愛看阿信的畫，簡單且可愛。

你呢？有想過你的末日願望嗎？

五月來了。五月天，也快來了 :)

Major minor updates

And so when I come back to blog, the whole interface of blogger changed. Just like Facebook, and everything else perhaps. Why could things just change so quickly in these days.....and I wonder.

How long has it been...since I last flew a kite?

Hmm. Has life been good?
"Ma ma dei lar..."--that's how "so so" is represented in Canto.
I can't believe that I have worked for 7 months! Well perhaps 6 months as there were quite sometime in the middle where I spent on studying, exams and some holidays [Yes people I just went to amazing Japan wohooo....].

And I am still considering whether this is the career path that I would like to carry on and work on with. Well, to be more precise, when will I actually know? Ah....perhaps till the day when I really have to shout "Stop!".

Winter is finally over (well I mean since beginning of April, and not that I don't like winter why did I use the word finally over there....), and there has been quite a lot of rainy days lately. Rain makes people moody on the streets as umbrellas bang each other and water sprints over everywhere, ooh, that definitely includes me. Makes me so wana go home and drive lol. Spoiled. 

It's Bersih 3.0 today everywhere across the globe I heard?

Yah, just some updates and random thoughts before I go to bed.
Nights.
