BROKEN AGAIN

电脑又坏了，又被恶意软件攻击了，我也没去什么乱七八糟的网站啊！看来我的rp问题的确严重。听了同学的建议，开始放弃IE改用Maxthon，希望可以太平一点。现在没电脑可不能过活啊。
初步发现Maxthon的一个问题，好像不能同时看到两个窗口啊。

I JUST HAVE TOOOO MUCH TIME HERE

50 things you learn from Korean dramas

1) Hot, rich, younger men love fat, older vulgar women.
2) If you have a best guy friend, he is in love with you. And secretly you are too.
3) You and your boyfriend will always playfully chase each other on an ice rink, at the beach, or in the leaves. And you’ll laugh for no reason and your boyfriend will hit you “playfully” but the force of his push will have you flying across the room. But it’s okay. Cuz you’re still laughing like a crazy person.
4) Brothers/cousin/uncles-newphews will always love the same girl.
5) You’re allowed to make u-turns wherever you want in Korea. And there is never traffic on the side you want to u-turn to.
6) There is a super quick payment device that allows you to pay a bill quickly enough for a guy to run immediately out of a restaurant after his angry girlfriend storms out.
7) Everyone has cancer.
8) If you’re sick, all you need is an IV to make you feel lots better.
9) There is vomit and urine all over Seoul at nights.
10) Fighting at a pojangmacha with a random stranger is merely part of a normal night’s event.
11) Soju must cost 10 cents. Everyone drinks it everyday all the time, especially the poor people. 12) If you’re rich, you’re a jerk.
13) If you’re poor, you’re an angel.
14) Women sleep and wake up with a full set of makeup on.
15) You’re not studying hard enough unless you get a nosebleed.
16) If you have a nosebleed, you most definately have cancer. And you have no money to pay for the surgery that will save your life. And your liver is missing. We’re not sure where it went, but it’s making your cancer progress faster.
17) If you work in a sool jeep, you have massively curly hair and wear flashy colors from the early 90’s.
18) You always order orange juice or coffee at a cafe. And you never drink it. EVER. (they drink almost as much as soju)
19) You will always call your boyfriend by his job title. Or simply sunbaenim. Never his name. Never. He doesn’t have one.
20) If you TRULY love each other, you must die together in the end. Frozen outside instead of finding shelter like sane people. Just frozen….
21) You go to America you come back miraculously successful. You go to England you come back amazingly fashionable. You stay in Korea and the only thing that changes is your hairstyle.
22) And if you come back with no apparent reason then it’s because you have cancer.
23) Everyone always goes to the same hospital no matter where they are.
24) If you stand out in the rain for more than five minutes, you’ll end up with a fever and vertigo and people will rush you to the hospital to get some magic IV. And instead of taking an ambulance or driving they’ll race you on their back.
25) Even if you’re poor and can’t eat, you never wear the same clothes twice.
26) If you play a poor kid, you always have dirt on your face and your hair is always messy.
27) If you’re saving someone from being hit from a car, you’ll push them out of the way and wait for the car to hit you instead. Couldn’t be more true, they’re like a deer in headlights
28) Everyone has a long lost sister/brother/twin. Usually one they didn’t know about.
29) If you don’t want to answer your phone, you can’t just turn it off. The battery needs to be taken out.
30) All korean men can drink hard, smoke long, sing well and play piano. Usually all at the same time. And at the same restaurant that has a piano that they let anyone use.
31) If you’re in a relationship, you must at one point leave and have your lover tearfully come RIGHT before you board the plane (vice versa applies as well. You can be the chaser). 60% of the time you see each other, the other 40% you’re roaming around in circles and pass each other about six times, but miraculously never see them.
32) If you’re getting off a plane, you’re ALWAYS wearing sunglasses. ALWAYS.
33) All guys wear hideous tracksuits zipped up to their neck. Even if all they’re doing is jumproping.
34) Girls will always storm off because they’re mad and the guy will stoically grab them by the arm and swing them back- and by magic, not dislocate their shoulders.
35) Guys always look like they’re 6 feet tall, even if they’re only 5′10. Thank you camera angles.
36) Guys like to wear foundation, eyeliner and sometimes a smudge of lipliner.
37) You always get stuck in an elevator with someone who makes you feel uncomfortable. Even if there are six different elevators, you’ll always be stuck in the same one with that bastard you hate (or just fought with).
38) Unless you’re fabulously rich, your in-laws will always hate you
39) So will your sister-in-law.
40) Your brother-in-law might be pining away for you.
41) There are only 2 ways to kiss. You either press your lips against theirs with your mouth completely shut, and just press away for a very long and uncomfortable time. OR you devour the other person and suck out their soul. In both instances, the world spins.
42) A guy will always get the right size ring, even if you’ve never held hands.
43) People stare off into space and ponder a lot. They’ll just stop in the middle of the road and watch a leaf on a tree for a good three minutes, and just ponder.
44) You’ll get pregnant the first time you have sex.
45) You’ll get pregnant if he kisses you on the forehead.
46) Hell- you’ll get pregnant if you hold hands.
47) If you overcome great obstacles to be together, one of you must die. Probably due to cancer.
48) One korean man can kick the butts of 6 gangstas. Especially when they all stand in a circle and attack the guy one by one. Then when each of them get their butts OWNED, they wise up and attack the guy at the same time. Then the guy will get pulverized and bleed out onto the dusty concrete floor of the empty warehouse they’ve found to fight in. There will be a fire in a trashcan somewhere. And the girl will have watched this the entire time, screaming in horror. Instead of calling 119, she’ll just watch and cry. But it’s okay. Cuz the next day the guy will be fine with a few random bandages and a few face scars. But never a black eye.
49) It ain’t a real fight unless the gangstas fight dirty with a stick or switchblade.
50) If you study in the states (perferably Harvard), you are one of the top students and can speak perfect English (as assumed by the reactions of those around you). Why the rest of the world OUTSIDE of the TV can’t understand a single word uttered out of your melodramatic mouth is beyond me.

COPY FROM CELIA & BRENDA

One reminder, guys, don't take offense:-)
Just for the sake of sharing these interesting remarks!

Women are like apples on trees. The best ones are at the top of the tree. Most men don't want to reach for the good ones because they are afraid of falling and getting hurt. Instead, they just get the rotten apples from the ground that aren't as good, but easy... So the apples at the top think something is wrong with them, when in reality, they're amazing. They just have to wait for the right man to come along, the one who's brave enough to climb all the way to the top of the tree.
And... Men? Men are like a fine wine. They start out as grapes, and it's up to women to stomp the shit out of them until they turn into something acceptable to have dinner with.

Well, I don't totally agree with these remarks, but kinda interesting, and the sentence in the end is just so......

NO REGRETS, THEY DON'T WORK

两条背道而驰的路，兜了这么长时间的圈子，却到达了同一个地方，并将沿着同一条轨迹，向前。算是失败还是成功呢。
本就不是很想去，现在找到一个超级冠冕堂皇的理由，于是都不用花力气来说服自己要怎样怎样、不能怎样怎样了。是呀，老是逃避，放着再说，解决不了。always not good at handling these...

VENUSIAN LOGIC

Men are from Mars, women are from Venus. ----John Gray

暴不爽！总算是换了正式的衬衫，整理了乱七八糟的头发，没长青春痘没有水泡眼，跑去快图美拍证件照。左研究右研究，选了张还算不错的，印出来一看，领子没翻好。店员实在是没有职业道德啊！！拍之前提醒我一句难道会死吗？？哎，想想还是自己理亏，人家可捧着个照相机让我自己选了半天，但是这么小的屏幕，看得见什么啊？！
打电话给舅舅舅妈，定了星期五晚上去深圳，星期一早上回来。大人终究是大人，我扛不住的时候可以有个地方奔走一下，听听建议意见，还是很温馨的。不过这话一说，证明我还是个没担当的小孩子啊。
最近我周围的女人都流行高跟鞋，红色性感，白色可爱，“银角大王”，顿时我的世界好像矮了三公分。无奈我不争气的腿脚啊，穿了几天高跟鞋就膝盖疼，穿平底拖鞋居然把两只脚都磨破了。今天KPMG的recruitment talk，我只顾盯着HR senior manager，一个身材暴赞的英国女人和她的梅红色高跟鞋了。于是晚上忍不住跑去又一城小逛了一下，并且开始理解sex and the city里面Carrie的expensive footwear情结了。

KITCHEN ACCIDENT II

继上一次的“木耳事件”之后，又一起厨房事故不幸发生。昨天买完菜回宿舍后，不知怎么鬼使神差，随手把一大摞东西塞进冰箱冷藏室。今天本来老欢天喜地的想要吃饺子，翻出来一看，软啪啪的饺子们皮肉相连，紧密团结在一起，整个的变成包肉大面团了。又是深刻的教训！

I'M LOVING ANGELS INSTEAD

看到一个朋友的blog上写着，随遇而安，知足常乐，有时只是懒惰的借口。很同意这句话。害怕失败，也不应该成为不付出，不努力的借口。希望我可以做到像她写得那样，“黎緊失敗幾多次都要記住唔好放鬆，唔好放棄！”
robbie不来香港，我越发天天听着他的歌过日子。这两天爱上了angels的歌词，听到那句“she offers me protection, a lot of love and affection, whether i'm right or wrong”，心里会有被纠起来的感觉，就像以前听到那句“never too far away”一样。

and through it all
she offers me protection
a lot of love and affection
whether I'm right or wrong
and down the waterfall
wherever it may take me
I know that life wont break me
when I come to call
she wont forsake me
I'm loving angels instead

DARKNESS

第一次在图书馆赖到关门音乐响起还迟迟不肯撤退。倒不是在用功，只是在企图把整个学期的notes都打印出来。
第一次这么晚的时候在学校上厕所，四下无人，我被门吱吱呀呀的声音搞得精神紧张。出来的时候走廊一侧的灯被关掉了，于是我低头屏气加快脚步冲向红门。然后发现回宿舍的山路灯也关了一半，放眼望去树影婆娑，很有些诡异气氛。把ipod开得很大声听robbie的歌壮胆。想起去年玩camp，被要求在三更半夜一个人走过一条林间小道。那天没什么月光，周围也没什么灯光，小路两旁的植物随风摆动，搞得地上的黑影蠢蠢欲动，好像随时会有什么东西跳出来一样。小路很长，一个人闷头走了足足五分钟，最后看见光明的时候，那种如释重负的感觉啊！
PwC第一次面试的时间居然是中秋节，因为雅思成绩被免去了英语测试这关。总之，这一年的神经大概是松不下来了。

THE LONG AND BLOODY ROAD

刚刚elsa同学打电话来问，有没有查过邮箱？她的同学收到PwC的回复了，确切说，被拒绝了。她自己什么音讯都还没有。不过这个gpa超强无比的女人没理由得不到面试机会，于是我们猜测今天发拒信，明天开始发面试邀请函。临挂电话她说，拒信是刚发的，你还是再查一遍吧。
于是我再查一遍，猛然看到一封PwC寄来的新邮件大喇喇的躺在邮箱里，主题既没写邀请，也没写拒绝。一时间我的心一面飞速跳动，一面直直地往下沉。还好，点开之后，看见的是campus interview的邀请信，明天去career centre定时间。
我的揾工之旅算是正式开始了。这才只是第一轮的面试，心情跌宕起伏。过不多久，大概就会被不断的考验炼就成金刚不坏身了。

CONVERSATIONS

某人猛力敲打烘干机中。。。
一青涩小男生：请问，这洗衣机开始转了以后，是不是不用在旁边等着，到时间上来就可以了啊？
某人：恩。
某人继续猛力敲打烘干机中。。。
青涩小男生（指着烘干机）：请问，使用这个机器要敲打的吗？
某人：。。。
某人和某人继续猛力敲打烘干机，终于，吞了钱的烘干机开始显示出可使用时间。。。
青涩小男生：请问，用这个机器是不是不要钱的阿？
某人：@#$%^&*

。。。。。。

俺：这小男孩太可爱了！
某人：。。。

来到大学两年多，今天第一次主动参加学校的公开讲座，hsbc的一市场部高官，讲hsbc branding in asia。演讲厅座无虚席，我们只好在外面搬了板凳挤在过道上。演讲者问大家“听不听得见”时声音老大的，开讲之后立马细声细气起来，整个演讲也无甚出彩之处，大家一起观看了hsbc同一系列的平面和电视广告数十个之多，有掏浆糊之嫌。

TWO DAYS AFTER MY FATHER'S BIRTHDAY

父亲对孩子的说话——千里走单骑

如果有一天
我失忆了
反反复复说不清楚话
请给我一点时间
正如我当初一样
反反复复给你讲故事
只是为了让你能记住

如果有一天我不想动了
身体肮脏、邋遢
却又不想去洗澡
请给我一点时间
正如当初我花很多时间
想出很多理由劝你去洗澡一样

如果有一天
我年迈体衰走不动路
请给我一点时间
再扶我一把
正如我当初一样
扶着你迈出人生第一步

如果有一天
我不得不离开你
请记住，我的孩子
我是多么地爱着你

当我老了
不再是原来的我
请理解我
对我有一点耐心

当我把菜汤洒在自己衣服上时
当我忘记怎样系鞋带时
请想一想当初我是如何手把手地教你

当我一遍又一遍地重复你早已听腻的话语
请耐心地听我说
不要打断我
你小时候
我不得不重复那个讲过千百遍的故事
直到你进入梦乡

当我需要你帮我洗澡时
请不要责备我
还记得小时侯我千方百计哄你洗澡的情形吗？

当我最新事物和新科技不知所措时
请不要嘲笑我
想一想当初我怎样耐心的回答你的每一个为什么

当我由于双腿疲劳而无法行走时
请伸出你年轻有力的手搀扶我
就像你小时候学习走路时
我扶你那样

当我忽然忘记我们谈话的主题时
请给我一些时间让我回想
其实对我来说
谈论什么并不重要
只要你能在一旁听我说
我就很满足

当你看着老去的我
请不要悲哀
理解我，支持我
就像你刚开始学习如何面对生活时
我对你那样

当初我引导你走上人生路
如今请陪伴我走完最后的路
给我你的爱和耐心
我会报以感激的微笑
这微笑中凝结着我对你无限的爱

REAL ONE

Just spend lots and lots of time browsing at youtube, don't wanna start writing the cover letter.

Found some video clips of Wham! visiting China in 1985, as the hottest boy band worldwide at that time. I was not born yet. And this time, this year, Eurotour, I am not rich yet. Bad timing always. Wait for the next time, believe in the next time.

Went to tutor mandarin today, after a three-month break. I suddenly realized on my way back to the residence after the tutoring, that, this was such an easy job, with no office policy, no harsh boss, and hardly any pressure. Those two little girls, and their mother, they just felt ok and kept giving me money, no matter what or how I taught. There was even no performance evaluation. Why on earth did I feel streesed doing it? This is like the easiest job with a good pay, ever.

Starting to look for a real job gives me new perspectives. I was lucky and blessed as always but I didn't realize.

不过，要是他用每一个名字都发表过什么作品，还是满不容易的。

NIGHT IN LIBRARY

昨天度过了新学期第一个在图书馆的傍晚，想用功来着，昏睡过去n次，困的眼泪横飞，冻的鼻涕直流，以前懂的仍旧懂，不懂的还是没搞清楚。
交掉申请表，迈入漫长的等待阶段。没什么感觉，后面的路太长，我连起跑线都还没站上去。
倒是发觉了一个严重的disadvantage，i am so bad at names！看到以前合作过project的group mate，不过是几个月没见，死活想不起来名字，每次人家冲我摆手说hi，sandi，我都只好来一句分外拖长的hi~~~~~。不是记性不好，是实在没有把人家放在心上。不行，态度问题，得改正。

FIRST SHOT, PWC

交了第一份申请书，感谢被我不幸骚扰过的同学们给我提出的中肯实用的意见建议。我相信我最需要做的是充满信心，做真实的自己，相信自己一定可以找到一份适合的喜欢的工作。
今天兴冲冲的想在网上申请招行IPO，结果被告知因为不是香港永久居民不可以申请这次的IPO，郁闷了，不讲道理啊。
渐渐意识到有衣服裤子包包从开学到现在都没露过面，难道我还有一个箱子流浪在外没有收回来？天哪，怎么这么多东西！

PIC PIC

演唱会现场。我这个到了关键时刻总是丢三落四的家伙，居然把照相机充电的事情忘得一干二净。于是只好可怜巴巴的举着一个没有zoom功能的小手机，趁着舞台最光亮的时候拍几张留个念。好歹也是在香港看的第一场秀啊。

俺现在的课桌一角。昨天看完演出一直很high，于是跑到超市很花痴的抱了三朵花回来。墙上的照片还是上个学期从某一期的南华早报上撕下来的，george clooney当选奥斯卡最佳男配角之后的新闻。

WESTLIFE! BACK FROM THE CONCERT!

很不错！

尽管从五个人变成了四个人，年纪也不可避免的往上爬，还是有不少令人惊喜的好的转变。舞蹈技术有了很大的进步，比以前让几个hot girls热舞撑场面好看不少。改编pussycat dolls的don't cha，几个大男孩一边吼着don't cha wish your boyfriend is hot like me，一边大秀颇具挑逗意味的顶胯扭臀动作，现场气氛高涨，尖叫连连。

香港城小地小，演唱会场馆也小。虽然这次去的不是赫赫有名的红馆，但是位于机场附近的亚洲展览馆演出厅也不错。红馆是香港艺人的主场，展览馆是外国人比较爱去的地方。整个演出厅对于一场亚洲巡演来讲小了不止一点，但在演出前一星期买了最便宜的票，还可以在座位上裸眼看到westlife的舞蹈动作，距离基本和上海八万人的内场后排差不多了。所以，还是小点好阿。kianfish同学终于得见kian本人，虽然不得不承认他的舞蹈跳得基本上是westlife的第四名，虽然无论演唱会还是专辑都鲜少听到他的solo部分，但是，没办法，看顺了眼，掰不回来。

WESTLIFE SHOW

晚上将要去看westlife的演唱会。因为忙着普华永道申请表的事情，一丁点看演唱会的mood都没有。但也不是说心情不好。在网上看了前人简历面试的经验，对于即将投身其中的一轮轮毫不留情面的筛选，既心情忐忑，又跃跃欲试，想在其中得到磨炼和自我价值的证明。

IT'S OVER, IT BEGINS...

开学第一个星期结束。没翘课，也基本没打瞌睡，良好的开始。

这学期所有的EF课程都是大陆老师教的，EF department俨然成了大陆人的天下。三个lecturer，目测推算是八九十年代的留美海龟博士，其中一个教得不错，口音也最自然，还有两个上课马马虎虎，却经常蹦出来几个老美的地道词组，第一次第二次听到的时候挺惊艳，可惜不久就发现更换频率严重过低，使用频率严重过高，一分钟重复近十次，听着听着就十分刺耳了，印象分上不能锦上添花，只得个“落井下石”。

刚回香港的时候坚持早睡早起，吃的清淡，结果不幸被人说中，只坚持了几天就忍不住渐渐毕露原形。可怜我强忍了口腹之欲一点没效果，刚吃了两顿好的脸上立刻有所“起色”。btw今天晚饭在超市买了一堆材料想在寝室自制又不麻又不辣的素食麻辣烫，结果不幸忘记要把木耳先浸泡半小时，烧出来生生脆脆，勉强吞了一半，剩下的实在难以下咽，只好浪费掉。深刻的教训啊。

SMILING, FLYING -- ROBBIE, SHE'S THE ONE

21 NOW

生日夹在两个recruitment talk中间，于是时刻被提醒着，这一年的任务，唯一任务是什么。

收到的最感动的礼物是老妈寄来邮件，一个word文档，几句祝福的话，还有她从七百多张图片里挑出来的几张我喜欢吃的东西的图片，虚拟晚餐，对她来说，比烧一顿真实的晚餐，要花费更多更多的时间吧。

BIG FISH

-- You were a big fish in a small pond, but this here is the ocean... and you're drowning. Go back to Puddleville. You'll be happy there.

-- You say I don't have a plan. I do. I'll find that girl, marry her, and spend the rest of my life with her. I don't have a job, but I would have a job if you gave me one. And I may not have much... but I have more determination than any man you're likely to meet.

Big Fish中的台词。很喜欢这部电影。

SING K

总算结束为期一年的唱K荒，不过唱来唱去老是那么几首。
没想到跟CC二人组一块儿玩得这么开心，大四之前最后的宣泄。
