Just had lunch with my two bosses in Star Cafe. I am treated, ha!

I never had lunch with both of them at the same time. They said it was to thank me for my work in the past 1.5 year. I have to thank them for their appreciation too! They told me that I was ranked high in the candidate list in the recruitment, haha.

And next week, it will be the start of my new contract, probably my last contract in HKO. It just reminded me that it would be my last day if I haven't have the contract extended. Well... maybe I should make it as a fresh new start when I come back next week!
Found a game: Suodoku Puzzle
心情, 就好似一些指數一樣, 曾經一度衝破阻力位, 但不久又回到之前窄幅上落既位置. 哈, 恐怕會留係呢個位置好一段時間. 期望可以蘊釀出上升既動力.

haha, 以上只是一個比喻. 因為近來又開始留意財經金融.

雖然自己說得大方, 但內心其實是有一點意思. Anyway just take it easy, and go constructively. Or I should "prepare for the worst, and try the best"? That is the way I adopt often.

有時都幾矛盾, 當你想賣一隻股票時, 你會set 個價高d, 但到你真係賣到隻股票時(特別係當你想止蝕時), 其實個價可能係升緊. 所以係個時都幾窩心(其實係痛心先岩)....

而家都係唔好買石油股住....
Reading Steve's diary,
I think the old ghosts felt exactly the same as you last year.
See if I can bid this...
Quite weird,

I feel my mom's care more when she talked to me than by other means, but I feel my dad's care more through his words in letters or emails than by talking to him! They are going to Australia for a week. and they talked to me on phone when they were in the airport. Well, my dad maybe having a cup of coffee in the Pacific Coffee and seeing that there was Internet access... he wrote me a few words through email. What he talked is almost the same as what he said a few days ago. But this time, without his voice and his tone, somehow I can truely see his concern, without prejudice.

From the land auction yesterday, the price of the flats there will be $9k/ sq. ft. later? O.... what the hell..... well.. hope that it's really 「麵粉(地價)貴過麵包(現樓價)」!

That's what Michael Jordan doing when he was 28: get the first glimpse of NBA Championship....
I remembered lastnight I was quite pissed off when seeing someone talked without respect to Mrs Ngai. She's one of the few ppl in PolyU that i respect. I won't allow such thing happened.
My dad called me lastnight... just for telling me how to do in an interview!

I think not many dad will call their sons for that... but my dad did. At that moment, I didn't pay much attentiont to what he said, cos much of what he said is unneeded. O come on, I got a job by myself for quite many times, I know what i should wear and how I should perform. But he also gave me some inspiring questions, so.. I 'd like to thank him for reminding me that (not at that moment).

Just coffee is not enough, but hot coffee is needed to wake me up!

Microsoft's nightmare inches closer to reality



The Web...exists today as a collection of technologies that deliver some interesting solutions today, and will grow rapidly in the coming years into a full-fledged platform (underlined for emphasis in the original memo) that will rival--and even surpass--Microsoft's Windows...
fold its MSN Web portal business into its platform product development group, where Windows is developed....Google, with its massive array of networked computers and Web-based software, is rapidly expanding beyond its traditional search business and is about to collide with Gates & Co.
Just like what it said in Touch , 需要確認一個出發點,才會有鬥志去比賽.

I have been feeling the pressure from myself. If my dad knew I was more or less the same as him, he should know I am having this pressure right now. So why bother he give me more pressure? What he gave me is exactly the same as what I have on myself, that means I have to face double pressure. It's quite hard to thank him for bringing me to this world, if he keeps on like this.

At this moment, he is not one of the 出發點 of mine. In fact, no body is at this moment. I hope somebody will be one at least.

Yesterday, 30min ergo: 7799 (1:55.4)

when feeling sleepy in the office... the best way to wake up is to look at the uchamp photos... seeing those guys being thrown in the water, haha.

Xeno Muller, Matthew Pinsent, and Lance Armstrong have two things in common: They dedicated to the sports they love for a long time. Another thing is... they can make a living by doing the sport they love...haha.

Actually Michael Jordan is another one suited the conditions, only he can count on the endorsement, haha.



















My Air Jordan 3. This photo was taken three years ago. Now this pair of shoes is much older than shown...... The white sole and the white area at the back are all in yellow now.

I think this is the most casual and comfortable one among the AJs I have, such that I can wear it on the street and for playing ball (though i play very little often now). I really wanna look for replacement of this pair of shoes.

Saw Google and Microsoft in various media these days, e.g. newspaper, web, Business Week...

The Google and Microsoft got my attention these days, as one of the Microsoft ex (a Chinese!) walked away ( or being grabbed away) from Microsoft to Google. It concerns me of how Google is becoming a software giant from just a company running a famous search engine. It also raised my attention on the organization structure of Microsoft. It has the problem of bureaucrazy that most large organizations have.

It's quite a management issue, a technology issue, a creativity issue.

今天上午總算完成了一些工作, 雖然是在半睡狀態中完成. 最近每晚都差不多一時才睡... 看來今晚可以早一點了... 哈, 不要緊, 都是自願的.

剛收到警察部通知, 叫我去面試. 不要誤會, 我不是去考警察, 而是警察部的IT job. 還以為沒有希望, 因為上次補送文件比較遲, 以為一定趕不及. 無論如何, 要盡力而為...
From Mingpao:

文化評論人邵家臻表示,時下青少年流行「聯群結隊」的玩耍文化,朋輩間喜歡各自找朋友加入一起活動,人數有時多達 20至30人,這種行為稱為「搭棚」。他指「搭棚」的朋輩間關係非常疏離,各人互相認識不深,容易產生衝突,往往因言語或爭女朋問題而起爭執,甚至可能有 人因長相「騎呢」而成為眾人取笑或圍攻目標。

There're good sides and bad sides of
搭棚 activity. The good side is increasing the networking, knowing more ppl. The bad side is leading to violence, like what the news described. I think it rarely happens among educated ppl. But you never know what others are thinking. Intentions...

【明 報專訊】香港再現垂危古樹。繼林村許願樹在農曆新年折幹,九龍公園全港最大的榕樹亦「危在旦夕」,兩名樹木專家均認為,這棵年近200歲、正值壯年的 細葉榕有可能會步向死亡。...垂危的榕樹是全港最大的細葉榕,多次獲政府、專家和市民選為冠軍樹和市區樹王。這棵近200歲的榕樹高18米,樹冠闊27 米,樹幹直徑4.3米。...現時被列入「古樹名木冊」的526棵古樹中,有512棵由康文署管理。署方表示,除九龍公園細葉榕,中區政府合署近下亞厘畢 道的細葉榕和西貢公路近北圍的印度橡樹亦生病,現正適當護理。

唉..... 康文署班人究竟做咩架! 保育啊, 究竟他們知唔知呢d 都係香港的財產.

Hope that tmr will be truely a holiday...
Claiming to be at the management level instead of claiming to be "not at the operation level" is much more suitable, and it will give a clearer status.

In my point of view, it's still in a 畸形 situation.

Always feel fresh when walking along the street, but always feel sleepy when being in the office, especially when having to think.

When walking past the 環海樓 towards the Hillwood Road, saw that there 'll be a place called Knutsford Plaza opening soon just at the podium of 環海樓. No wonder the car park of an apartment can be transformed into a street of bars and pubs! What an idea! It may become the extension of the Knutsford Terrace and Hillwood Road, forming a crowd of pubs and bars.

Felt a breeze of wind when walking along the podium of 環海樓. Maybe it's hard to experience this kind of wind in the city. Though I am not borned in the 60s, I can imagine the environment at that time was much more comfortable. This generation maybe experiencing the air-con inside the shopping mall more often than experiencing this kind of wind in outdoor, or they may prefer to be inside the mall cos it 's so crowded and hot on the street.

Well, I like to imagine the environment in the past, and I hope the environment now is like that in the past. It maybe not realistic as mentioned in the ad of ICAC ( the old man said, "舊時舊時, 如果而家仲係好似舊時, 連粥水都冇得你食!") Actually I don't agree with the reaction of that old man, (or it should be the director, cos it's his idea). 那些老人是在懷念舊日環境, 而那個老人是在批判舊日制度. So the two things both parties talked about seem to have no relationship. Actually, what I hope is to achieve certain aspects in the past, but not totally accept the past.

今天又惠澤社群...
Shit, complicated in the programming.

Thursday, September 15, 2005

Well.. still got a little bit flu... very sleepy while in the office...slept nearly for half an hour before going downstairs for lunch...

Knowing from my boss that another branch also implemented a workflow management system, which is of larger-scaled. The system is now in user-acceptance test! I think it must be much more sophisticated. I really wanna have a look at it. While that one is implemented by a team, this one is implemented only by me. No way to compare... But I think having seen that one may boost me to do better on my one. I dun want it to be useless after I left, otherwise, it will mean the first half contract I worked in HKO is just a waste of time.

Wanna expose more to different system design.

Abrupt change? No, I think it's gradual change. Just like digitizing an analog signal, the sampled signal may only contain 0 and 1, but the waveform of the original signal may contain many upwards and downwards.

香港電台決定暫時停播一再引起政治爭議的時事節目《頭條新聞》,明年2月11日才恢復

Too bad.. it's one of my favourite tv programmes....

Tuesday, September 13, 2005

My boss showed me the appraisal he did for me. The conclusion is that I am "Very effective". "Knowledgeable in IT, good analytical skill, good programming technique, but be careful on error-checking to avoid iterations in ironing out the solutions". mm... These comments are as a result of my work over this year. Can I maintain the same quality in the coming year? of course! But at the same time, i rather need more comments on my personality...

Had lunch with Lok today. He 's such a good friend of mine, that just having been back from US yesterday, he called me for lunch. Quite often, we would talk about the things around, the PE section matters, the rowing team matters, and also the keep-fit matters. Haha, we normally talked about training to fit, today we talked about the heartrate during exercising. I still remembered that he called me "Low Heart Rate man", ha. Well.. last time when I go to A&E, the doctor asked me if my heartrate was that low in average...

Today, we also talked about relationship matters. This is a topic that we won't go into detail before. What he said in brief is just about two words: 包容. I totally agree with him. I think this is all under one condition, love. Love is just 無私奉獻, with 包容 already included. So whether one can afford any difference or argument is basically the "Hence, or otherwise" matter of the condition.

Sorry to my family and the team.
It's quite hard to satisfy both sides. While I need to go back home before 730pm due to family matters, I didn't wanna leave the school tonight (especially when situation was a bit messy). Mm... dilemma...

Sometimes I have to do something to convince my family that I didn't leave them alone, or that I didn't put all my time on rowing.

Unlike last year, when I have no worry on one aspect, I can put all my effort on another aspect. But this year, I have some worries. Maybe there's one way out, is that I have to be able to handle things separately.

Sunday, September 11, 2005

To myself,
不要將自己諗到咁大, You 're not on the top (of many things) yet, you 're still at the bottom.
It's just like playing a RPG game, dun think about how much you explored (the clear area), but think about how much you hasn't explore (the dark area). And remember the book "Who moved my cheese?", you 're just at a corner, you gotta walk out.

On my life, my career, etc:
許久沒有這種掌握不到的感覺. But it's this feeling that can make another breakthrough possible. What I need is the momentum.

Friday, September 09, 2005

Sitting in the Pacific Coffee in Wan Chai right now. I took a half-day off so that I could take graduation photos with my cousin. I am here after taking photos with her and aunts.

Suddenly I thought of what Robin is doing these days: being a freelancer (自由工作者, is it the correct chinese translation?). Doing a freelance, you can manage your time yourself, but you have to manage it well. You can do whatever you want, but you have to devote your concentration to the job. I don't mean being an employee doesn't require devoting your effort, but being a freelancer, everything is what you choose.

These days I seem to have less momentum on my job, even the uchamp is over. Maybe I feel that I won't stay here forever, I gradually loss the momentum. It is the same in other aspects, when I don't see the future, I will start to loss momentum.

Well, maybe someone will say: how can you give up so easily? But I 'd say I tried my best.

Thursday, September 08, 2005

These days I got more private time, such that I can listen to my favourite songs and music. I once played the album of Beyond, "繼續革命". My dad also get overwhelmed... that he request to play the album once more, ha.

Autumn is the right time to listen to 沮廢 songs, somehow it will make me more energetic. Like this one:

High and Dry- Radiohead

Two jumps in a week, I bet you think that's pretty clever don't you boy.
Flying on your motorcycle, watching all the ground beneath you drop.
You'd kill yourself for recognition; kill yourself to never ever stop.
You broke another mirror; you're turning into something you are not.

Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry
Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry

Drying up in conversation, you will be the one who cannot talk.
All your insides fall to pieces, you just sit there wishing you could still make love
They're the ones who'll hate you when you think you've got the world all sussed out
They're the ones who'll spit at you. You will be the one screaming out.

Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry
Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry

It's the best thing that you've ever had, the best thing that you've ever, ever
had.
It's the best thing that you've ever had; the best thing you've had has gone away.

Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry
Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry

I suddenly remembered one of the scenes in : Wonka wanna give the whole chocalate factory to Charlie, but the condition is that Charlie cannot bring along his family. So Charlie rejected, cos his family is what is important to him.
為什麼第三世界國家的災民會出現在第一世界的國家裡? 新奧爾良就是這樣一個例子.
From an article of mingpao today:

南方世界就在美國南方/文﹕梁文道

"近10年來,新奧爾良正努力地把自己變成一個主題公園,好讓它更接近迪士尼樂園版本的法國區。方法之一是把市中心傳統的黑人聚居區一一拆除,變成更乾淨宜人的高尚住宅,原來那些低下階層居民則被搬到遊客看不見的地方。那些遊客看不見的新奧爾良原居民,就是過去一個禮拜以來站在屋頂,睡在體育館地板上,曝光於全世界眼前的災民。"

"在這個全球化的年世代, 一個被劃作第三世界的非洲國家有人活得就像第一世界國民一樣,參與了全球金融市場的遊戲﹔一個住在北方國家美國的老百姓,卻可以無異於非洲居民..."

"在美國這個汽車社會裏面,沒有私家車是許多新奧爾良災民無法及時逃生,要困在體育館裏等待救援的主因。新奧爾良起碼有13.4萬人沒有汽車,他們全是這個城市最貧困的居民。"

"新自由主義大力提倡「大市場、小政府」和積極減稅的原則。所以這幾年來,美國基層地方政府可以支配的開支愈來愈有限,圖書館的開放時間短了,公立醫院排隊的人龍卻長了"

"新自由主義的原則,個人要負起最大的責任。...新奧爾良市政府發放的防止風災光碟裏面,會有官員勸誡市民﹕「每一個人要為自身和家庭的安全負上最大責任。」那13.4萬個沒有私家車的災民不該指望政府安排公共交通,疏散是他們自己的責任。"
this is one of the movie that I want to watch recently.

喇叭書院- 勵志可喜

【明報專訊】一群懶散無聊的「籮底橙」女生學吹喇叭,當然兒兒戲戲,這部日本校園喜劇初看的確傻頭傻腦,很小兒科。不過發展下去就頗有妙趣,還發揚勤學上進精神。這樣有通俗娛樂性的青春勵志片,雖然俗套,始終可喜。

日本片拍攝學習過程往往勝在認真,不像港片喜歡賣弄小聰明、出蠱惑、打天才波。八十年代日本片《蒲公英》一對戇佬傻婆學煮湯麵,到處偷師,就很認真和趣怪。九十年代周防正行導演《五個相撲的少年》和《談談情跳跳舞》,拍攝大學生學相撲,中年白領學社交舞,都愈學愈認真,成為叫好叫座的「學藝喜劇」。近年矢口史靖導演《五個撲水的少年》,追隨周防正行「學藝喜劇」模式,描述一群中學男生竟然苦練女性韻律泳,相當惹笑,同樣練得認真,姿式似模似樣。

矢口史靖去年拍成《喇叭書院》(Swing Girls),在日本受歡迎。片中小鎮中學的懶妹蠢妹們,放暑假要回校補習,很苦悶,她們貪玩卻撞板闖禍,臨急加入器樂隊又烏龍百出。這些情景頗幼稚,直至她們被逐出器樂隊,私下發憤苦練,劇情就漸入佳境。她們自組爵士喇叭樂隊,籌錢買樂器,求師學藝,這些女生和一個怕羞男生對音樂愈認真就愈好玩。還有竹中直人飾演秘密師父,很妙趣。最後高潮是校際音樂比賽,一波三折,壓軸演奏逼真出色,效果令人興奮。

西片常拍非一般的校園樂隊,多年前《修女也瘋狂》惹笑賣座,去年上映了美國《阿Sir來自樂人谷》和法國《歌聲伴我心》。這部日本片有東西合璧的特色,除了吹喇叭有趣,一場女生巧遇野豬戲還搞出「土法定格」之妙。
尋晚俾人一棍"bob" 濕左: Your precentation (presentation) is bad!
haha, I dun mind, sometimes I think I really need this kind of comments. 只要係善意, 加埋好既 presentation, 我絕對接受.

I told my cousin that I had a dream being in her wedding banquet, she immediately asked me how she looked. Well..I told her in the dream, she wore 旗袍, then she immediately said she didn't like 旗袍. Nevermind... if I could tell her that I had such a dream, it meant this dream would not come true.

Well.. the performance tonight was not really good...
Still... being suppressed... maybe it's the presence of the boss (not mine)'s subordinate, the boss felt more comfortable to dominate.
Received an email called: 等我有空再愛你!!

他向來說自己忙,哪有空陪她?其實他有的是時間,只是不肯花在她身上罷了。大學時代,他總是忙著唸 書和社團,好不容易等到寒暑假,他又忙著打工賺錢。那時他家中經濟拮据,唸書和打工是為了獎學金和賺學費。這些都是事實,也是當理由,她覺得自己應該做個 體貼的女友,所以也不強求他花時間在她身上,甚至盡力為他分憂解勞。

畢業後,他和幾個朋友合夥開了一間小公司,她則在出版社找了一份畫插 圖的工作。創業維艱,白手起家非常辛苦,所以她不但替他處理家務,還每天送便當和宵夜到公司給他,每次都只是聊兩句就走了,深怕耽誤他的時間。他的同事們 都誇她體貼又得體,將來必定是個賢妻良母;她也有點沾沾自己,認為自己的付出受到了肯定。

公司的營運終於步上常軌,照理說,他應該有空陪她了,可是他卻說:「我希望在三十歲以前,有自己的車子和房子,還有足夠的存款,這樣才能安心、沒負擔地結婚。」於是他變得更忙、更拼了,就連她送便當到公司去,也常常見不到他。相較之下,她覺得自己像是遊手好閒。

交 往五、六年了,她漸漸發覺自己總是在孤單寂寞中渡過,每年的生日、情人節、聖誕節,都是自己一個人和電視機一起渡過。同事們總笑說她的? k友只是個「傳說」,甚至還有朋友懷疑她是否真的有男朋友。這些日子以來,她的體貼和識大體,除了換來男性朋友們的稱讚,和姊妹淘們的同情之外,什麼也沒 有。

於是,她開始對他做出小小的「反應」,但總被他的好言相勸給抑制下來。「今天的辛苦,是為了明天的幸福啊!」「兩個人整天黏在一起, 反而更快、更容易分手呢!」情人節,在她萬般請求之下,他才終於答應晚上陪她到陽明山看夜景。她殷殷期盼了一個多星期,卻因為一通朋友要他去應酬的電話, 粉碎了這個夢。再也按捺不住這幾年來的孤單寂寞,她邊哭邊抱怨著、訴說著自己的委屈。

「妳以為我喜歡忙嗎?我這麼辛苦,還不都是為了我們的未來!」此話一出,她變得啞口無言。他不肯放手,而她也還沒準備好離開,可是現狀卻毫無改善。但是不甘願的種子已經在她心裡種下,生根發芽,等待開花結果的一天。

他 有工作、有朋友、有應酬,所以他沒有空。這些她也有,只是她長期選擇待在家裡、守著電話、等待他的來電、讓自己隨傳隨到,而推開了工作和朋友。現在,她不 想再獨守空閨、癡癡地等他臨幸,不再劃地自限,決心找出自己的一片天。她不再為他送便當和宵夜,寧可窩在辦公室裡邊啃麵包邊畫插圖,或是想? Q新點子;她也不再每天按時打電話問候他了,寧可和姊妹淘們喝咖啡、聊是非,或是花時間打扮自己,更添自信。

他漸漸發覺自己忙碌的生活裡,似乎少了些什麼,但總想不出到底是少了什麼。半個月過去,他才驚覺是少了她。心血來潮撥了通電話,卻被潑了桶冷水。

「我現在沒空,明天要交稿,我現在要趕稿。」說完,她立刻掛上電話。他想,她總算有些事情可以忙,就不會常常埋怨他沒時間陪她了。各自忙碌的生活又過了兩、三個月。這天,他談成一筆大生意,心情正好,想找她慶祝時,卻再度吃了閉門羹。

「我現在沒空,等一下要開會。最近應該也都沒空。」開會?他從來都不知道她那份悠閒的畫圖工作需要開什麼會。原來她的插圖受到讀者歡迎,出版社打算為她出版一系列的圖畫筆記書。

又過了一個多月,他終於買了夢想中的新車。想起和她久未見面,決定開車帶她出去兜兜風。

「我現在沒空,要趕著去新書發表會。」

「我載妳去!」

「不用了,總編輯會送我去,我現在沒空。」

他再也無法忍受了。他們已經兩個多月沒有見面了,每次打電話給她,她總說沒有空,就匆匆掛上電話。以前的她不是這樣的,這到底是怎麼回事?

? u妳到底還當不當我是妳的男朋友?妳到底愛不愛我?」

「我現在沒空,等我有空再愛你吧!」

按下結束通話鍵,她將手機丟到皮包裡,交給身旁的出版社總編輯,準備走進新書發表會的會場。

「男朋友嗎?」

「不再是了。」

「那麼....簽名會結束後,妳有空嗎?」

「只要你有空,我隨時都有空。」她笑著說。

********

麥斯威爾咖啡的廣告曾說:「再忙也要和你喝杯咖啡。」

現在我們的生活是處於忙碌狀態,但是你是否忘了你的另一半呢?或許事情有輕重緩急,但是我們將心比心來看,你是否也希望遭此對待呢?

不要將自己的另一半,總是排在最後,等到你想到之時,可能往事只能回味了~

好好珍惜你所能把握的,愛惜你所能擁有的。

********

PS:「妳以為我喜歡忙嗎?我這麼辛苦,還不都是為了我們的未來!」曾經我也被相同的話訓斥的啞口無言,自責於自己的不夠體貼,現在我覺得那只是逃避責任的一種藉口罷了。

愛一個人要及時,不該等有空,再怎麼忙也都要保持互動.

Reading steve's xanga, he said he would like to stay alone when being together with a group of ppl, while on the other hand, he would like to be with the friends when being alone. I think I have the same thought. Also, when I am on the street, I would like to stay at home, thinking that I should do more reading at home, but I would like to go outside when I am at home, thinking that I should go outside to see more.

Thanks for 沖's opinion. He saw what I have been doing these days. From what you wrote in your xanga, you should know why I always keep exercising? haha.. just kidding..

With the smell of the wind, it means Autumn has come. I like the weather of a little hot but dry.
Google Earth - http://earth.google.com/products.html
Fantastic GIS software... have a try!
Had taken away of McD as lunch, also bought instant coffee in 7-11. It is Latte. When I turn over the bag, I found the chinese translation of Latte...... 拿鐡... so funny.....

Read an article of 蔡子強 , 引述名句的藝術 in mingpao:
"不難發現煲呔「上位」後,忽然愛上了引述 quotations(名人名句),來為自己的施政及管治理念下註腳。這不單可令自己看來高尚優雅,為自己添上幾分魅力和風采,更重要的是,可以為往後傳 媒的有關報道奉上標題或引子,從而為該段新聞定下主調,令觀眾和讀者更易對號入座,把新聞讀入腦袋。"
"
煲呔已經從政幾十年,過去不見得他愛引經據典,到了今天,卻忽然成為一位出口成章的典型西方現代「政治家」,是他學習能力驚人﹖抑或是其身邊多了什麼「高人」﹖又或者是兩者皆是呢﹖"
"
不得不提一句的是,引述名人名句時,千萬要小心,要搞清楚其背景,那是構成政治訊息十分重要的一部分。"

Today is the first day of school.. of course it's not for me.

However, if I didn't go back to the office after the course, it would be my first day of work this week. The it really feels like I wait until September to start to work....
Book being read these days: <<塔木德-猶太人的致富聖經>>
