went to 折原商店 (11 Unity Street #01-02 Robertson Walk) last thursday and had great time with iris (lola) and celeste. lola is always a cheerful company to have at any occassion. while for celeste, it's actually the first time we could sit down and chat so much since we know each other. wish we can do it more often in future. thanks to celeste for the photos! oh by the way, the cocktail in lola's hand was actually the champion cocktail by the bar tender who just started his first day work on the night itself. the taste was surprisingly good and refreshing!

jacket.
yesterday, i just realised that i have lost my favorite jacket. i have to admit that i feel quite...lost, sad and painful. so much so that i couldn't fall asleep, so much so that i dreamt of looking for it last night. so much so i even blog about it right now. i didn't feel as much when i lost my handphone. in fact, i didn't feel anything at all when i lost my handphone. while trying real hard to recall when i last saw it, i keep telling myself that it's just a jacket. a mass produced jacket. not even a vintage jacket. but...i love the jacket! it's been to many places with me. it kept me warm. it fitted on me nicely. i love the details of the jacket. i love its colour. i love its material. i love its lightness. i love its size. i love it i love it i love it. you might think that it looks just like any other jacket, but i don't think i will ever find a similar jacket again. *sob*

人情。
華人最愛做人情。人情本應是溫暖的。還人情卻讓人感覺壓力。我覺得人情太多不是一件好事。只會讓接受的那方感到沉重。有沒想過你一廂情願要給的人情,其實只不過是讓自己覺得好過而已,而且對方根本沒那個需要。有沒考慮過對方想不想接受你給的人情?有時別人謝絕你要給的人情,就隨他的願吧。強迫別人接受你的人情,反而是一種自私。我本身最討厭華人在餐館里飽食一頓後爭著付錢的場面,夾在之中的服務生超為難,場面超尷尬。其實,接受別人對你的好意是一種溫柔。接受別人謝絕你的好意是一種體貼。

the best travel guide.
during my last visit to beijing in august, i had this great great honour to receive this travel guide book which was hand drawn by my super busy best friend, Karen. YES! it's karen, THE KAREN! here you can see a very heartwarming cover, a very cute and innocent panda and a dreamy...erm...flying bird. so sweet of karen! she is a sweet girl actually, even though most of the time she acts like she doesn't care (ok i guess sometimes she really doesn't care)...
and it goes like this...
...she's a very professional event planner/organiser, knowing i would feel lost in beijing, she drew me a very clear map of her and sean's house location plus listed down all the necessary information...
...she even attached a very precise map of chaoyang district, where she lives and works now, and gave me some background info...
...karen is an artistic girl, she even googled some art piece about beijing, printed it out and pasted it into the guide book! so much effort!
i was soooo excited and couldn't wait to see what is in the next page! and then...
she became extremely busy and had to stop here...
oh well, i love this guide book, it's so karen!

从前 vs. 未来
今天做了一件自己以前绝不可能做的事。我给了一个关于专业经验分享的讲座。很感谢麦哥的帮忙。虽然必定有很多不足的地方,也以很平民的作风甚至很自然到说了一些很白话的粗俗字眼,可是那不重要,最重要的是我突破了自己。耶!
讲座结束,转头看见一个羞涩的女孩在一边看着我等待机会问我一些问题。我走了过去。听着她用那紧张又害羞的语气告诉我,她送出了多封求职信都石沉大海以至她完全对自己失去自信心,从我这一边看过去的她,好像年少的自己。而从她那一边看见的我,会不会是她希望的未来的自己呢。天,不知不觉,我竟然走到人生的这里,突然有一种难以形容的感慨。好想帮她找到工作喔。。。

夢想。
藝術與糞的一線之差。
在柏林時去hamburger bahnhof看了一堆不知所謂的藝術品。我想其中一些只不過是一些瘋子用來愚弄觀眾的垃圾。簡直無聊透頂!如果硬要说那是一種藝術,那就是推銷垃圾與愚弄觀眾的藝術吧。

Fussen. walking into a dream world.
isn't this very "getty-image"?!
"getty-image" again!
now i know why they like it under the bridge.
feeling pressure from above yet serenity from below. i like this weird feeling.
cycling out under the bridge.
beautiful light show against the grass.
so peaceful~~~
millions millions millions of tiny mini flying insects in the air. guess i have gulped them in like a whale while i was cycling around.
this is my sis. she's a good poser. hehe...
more to come!
