Wii - Resident Evil 4

I went to Wan Chai Computer City after lunch today. My colleague told me that Bio Hazard for wii has been released for awhile. Then I went to check that out, of course, he's right!!! it's OUT!!!!!!! Look at THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!! The player can buy a gun peripheral or a light gun adaptor for this game!!

Hong Kong Book Fair Part 2 + Chinese Calligrapgy

I usually go to Hong Kong Book Fair twice a year. I met a student couple this morning. I like this couple very very much!!!!!!! The boy student has a great talent for drawing. The girl student is smart and outspoken. I'm very happy that they're coming together. Last year, the boy student deferred his study and went to mainland China for a one-year internship.

Today, my friend broke her promise. She said she would come to Book Fair WITH ME!!!!! However, she need to practice executing Chinese Calligraphy, so she didn't come at last.
I still met her this afternoon(She showed what she wrote this morning), because we planned to celebrate my friend, Samu's birthday in a Japanese restaurant in Wan Chai. We tried many fresh SASHIMI, including Pacific Saury(秋刀魚), Echinoida(海膽), Jelly Fish(水母), Beef, Baby Eel(鰻魚), Belly of Swordfish(劍魚腩) and two starters(bean curd and squid) PLUS one bean curd cheese cake. I was TOTALLY FULL!!!!!











Can you guess how much is this FRESH lunch?
Let me give you some hints!!
It's over $1000, and ABCD are 4 different numbers which indicate the amount shown in the bill.
Equation 1: AB = 2*CD
Equation 2: 7*B = CD
Equation 3: (a+C)*D = CB
Equation 4: 2*C = B

Hong Kong Book Fair 2007

I went to Hong Kong Book Fair on last Wednesday. I bought a complete(OF COURSE, except the last volume which is released today!!!! ) set of "Harry Potter" series (paperback edition).
I didn't buy MANY MANY BOOKS, but still spent A LOT OF money!!! AND they're SO HEAVY.

I saw Dr Tony Mok(莫樹錦) who is a host of a TV show called "Body Talks(最緊要健康)”. I guessed he might have a signing here.

Bleeding

My student has cut her toe yesterday. I was so SCARED about that. I'm NOT afraid of BLOOD. However, her classmate told me she saw the bone inside. Then the wound would be very deep. If it's just a NORMAL BLEEDING, I'll be fine. BUT, oh, GOD! BONE!!! It must be very painful, I think.
My colleague and I called the ambulance. 15 minutes later, the student has been sent to the Union Hospital.

A gift from bf and one from myself

I went to a boutique in Lan Kwai Fung this afternoon with my friend. She's going to get married in the next April, so I took her to this boutique which selling cocktail dress designed by HK local designers. When I walked into the shop, I saw one of the shopkeeper. She 's the friend of my bf and then I realised my bf has bought a dress for me.

I like that tube top dress very much(I've never own a tube top dress before) when I saw it last time. The attached picture is the tube top dress I've got today. It is with a diagonal cutting which gives an illusion of slim legs. Two strings are just for hanging the dress on the coat hanger.

Now, my bf really bought it for me. I was EXTREMELY SURPRISE! and APPRECIATE what he did. As I know, he haven't seen this dress before. I only described to him and he said he would buy one for me in the phone. But, I thought he was kidding only.

I was REALLY HAPPY today and I also bought a pair or earrings for myself. These are COOL!!

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire

I bought tickets for "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix" yesterday and I will watch it on next Monday. Since I am the member of Broadway Circuit, I will gain same amount of bonus points as much as I paid for the tickets. Yesterday, I gained 260 bonus points more. Now, I totally got over 500 bonus points.


The most attractive privilege of this membership is the "BUY ONE GET ONE FREE" discount. I can spend 50-65 bonus points to buy two tickets and only need to pay for one ticket. Therefore, I can usually watch a CHEAP movie(~hk$30). Now, I have got over 500 bonus points. That's mean I can get this privilege for 10 different movies. I HOPE I have got time to watch that MUCH!
One or two years ago, I really spent a lot of time in cinema. However, I am BUSY recently...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I will watch "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix" soon, BUT, I haven't finished the last movies of "Harry Potter" series yet. My brother bought a DVD and he took it away. Then I called to my friend tonight and asked her to borrow me the "Harry Potter" DVD. That's SO IMPORTANT!!!
I MUST finish it before next MONDAY!!!! This definitely is a mission possible!

Training in Jadason

I have just finished 3-day training organised by Jadason Technology Ltd in Admiralty. I have spent at least 8 hours a day to practice. It was SO EXHAUSTED. As I have mentioned in the last post that I need to drink "RED BULL" to power up myself.

















I arrived at Admiralty an hour earlier that I supposed to be. I walked around in Pacific Place and look for McDonald(becasue I wanted to have a hot cake breakfast there, but NO MORE McDonald's in Pacific Place now). I saw an interesting decorations there and took this series of pictures.

This picture I took during the lunch. We went to a Chinese restaurant in Wan Chai for last 2 days. I took this picture because it was SO FUN. HOW FUN??? When we have just sat down, every waitresses came to us and put all the food on our tables. Our tables then are FULL OF FOOD within 5 minutes. We even haven't eaten anything yet, the waitress has already asked us to take some Chinese desserts too. IT'S SO UNBELIEVABLE!!!!
See the hands with green sleeves??? That's the hands of one of the waitresses.

I met one guy in PolyU in this training workshop. During today's lunch, we were talking the department and professor that I was studying in CityU. He did ask me about my industrial experience. Actually, I've only got NOT MORE THAN 1 year industrial experience. My colleague then told him I prefer to participate the competition instead. That's TRUE!!! I love to make my own animation to enhance my animation or technical skills. Then that PolyU guy then guessed, "Did you make an animation that XX(he couldn't tell what it exactly is) is climbing?". I replied "YES!!, But how did you know that??". I was DEEPY appreciative of his recall. I didn't give him any clues. He simply guessed a right one that I have made 5 years ago. I didn't believe someone still remembered my work. That's actually my final year project of my undergraduate study.

Now, I want to make a new animatin again. A fire is burning in my heart again.

Red Bull gives you wings!

I went to bed at 4:30am this morning and woke up at 8am. I have slept for 4 hours ONLY, so I was extremely TIRED and couldn't concentrate.
Today, I start a professional rendering training from 10:30 am to 5:00 pm(The class was overrun today >_<) until this Thursday. I totally couldn't focus on what the trainer said. I almost fell asleep in the class several times too. At the meanwhile, I was HUNGRY because I had no time to have my breakfast this morning.

I then went to buy a "RED BULL" in 7-11 during the lunch break. This is the 2nd time I drink "Red Bull". I NEED it to help me to focus. HOWEVER, I still yawned 30 minutes later.....

1 Day before Billabong Asian Wakeboarding Championships












我今日跟父母喝過中午茶之後,回家歇一歇便又出門了.
到了哪?最近這一個月我時常去的地方,便是大埔”比華利山別墅”的旁邊--三門仔.我跟男朋友去了玩wakeboard,因為他其中一個”練習場”便是這裡啦!不過,今日我們只是”陪坐”,並沒有落水.
明天,7月8日是Billabong Asian Wakeboarding Championships,跟我們同船的一部份人則為明天的比賽作練習.我這個門外漢當然看得目瞪口呆啦,太厲害了!

最後,預祝我男朋友明天順順利利,結果是怎樣也不要緊,”最緊要好玩”!!!

I went to wakeboarding again. But, it's NOT right! I acutally didn't get into the water. I only sat on the boat and watched other people to practice. It's STILL very FUN anyway.
It was REALLY HOT today, 34oC. But, there is a strong wind on the boat, so I wasn't BURNT(or MELTED) by the SUN!!!
These 3 pictures were taken by my mobile phone. I love the sunset AR!!!!

Hong Kong 1-day trip

星期四,我跟朋友到了西貢的銀線灣,乘80號巴士到鑽石山地鐵站,再轉乘91.到坑口道下車也只是用了不少於20分鐘,沿著銀線灣路一直走,十分熱,走到一個細小的停車場,看似是一個dead end,好奇怪,碰著我倆不會怎樣走的人,只好向旁邊住宅停車場的更亭問路,才發現剛才經過的小型停車場旁邊有一道綠色樓梯,那正是要通往銀線灣.
長長的樓梯....究竟通往哪裡呢?
原來是一個超級迷你小沙灘,海水跟磚牆的距離,只有1個人的長度左右,亦只有一個救生員,可以想像這個沙灘多麼小,其實從樓梯上步行下去的時候,已發現防鯊網的範圍十分小...
我便提議改到清水灣,唉,最痛苦的還是那極長的樓梯,烈日當空下,又要爬上它...GOD
I went to Silverstrand Beach in Sai Kung yesterday. But it actually is a VERY TINY beach. SO my friend and I took a light bus to Clear Water Beach.












之後,我們只好乘小巴(其實也可以坐巴士)到附近的清水灘二灘.
清水灘二灘相比起來,確實比銀線灣大多了,但比我端午節到愉景灣的大白灣小.
我為了消暑(大部份的時間也是在水中),不時走到海邊玩水,避浪,因為我其實站在水及膝的位置,有時候會有大浪湧上來,整條褲也濕透,幸好我穿了Boardshorts,但我最擔心的並不是濕透的褲,而是我怕浪大得過份,令我整個人掉落水,因為我身上還拿著電話和digital camera.
I ate a orange popsicle and mango ice-cream at about 1pm. At almost 2pm, the wind became strong and cloudy. Suddenly, it rained very HARD~~~ There was an annoucement that suggested ALL the swmimers to get out from the water because of the thunderstorm warning. We all got WET because of this rain!!!!!!!!! We went to changing room and wanted to leave. HOWEVER, it's SUNNY again when we were coming out from the changing room......












We then took bus 91 back to Choi Hung MTR Station. We went to MegaBox in Kowloon Bay afterwards. It's really BIG, but still under renovation. I went to B&Q and Spotlight too!!!!!!!! These are the two stores that I really want to go.

I then took a taxi to Kwun Tong (close to my working place)!!!!! BUT, actually I spent MOST of the cash in my purse.... THANKS GOD, I spent about $26 from MegaBox to Kwun Tong Magistracy. But, I have ONLY got $33 total in my purse!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Later, I went to Tuen Mun. This is the 3rd time that I have been in there... I have never taken the light rail too.... I really wanted to try yesterday. However, I have spent an hour to shop in one boutique. I then spent one more hour in Jusco... ^_^ hehe

I bought 2 cans of "Tetley" beer for my father. My father loves to drink beer, but my mom don't allow my father to drink frequently. I have tried "Tetley" once. I think it tastes GOOD too (I prefer to drink white wine, red wine or cocktails

Wedding ROUND 2

Congratulations !!!!!
My secondary schoolmate got married today!!!!!!!! Unfortunately, I didn't take any photos with him... because my parents borrowed my digital camera for their mainland trip during this LONG WEEKEND holidays. My secondary schoolmate, the bridegroom, was extremely ~NERVOUS~ today. He accidently mis-pronounced the name of his wife in his wedding vow. That made everyone in the church LAUGH!!!!

After the wedding, my friends and I went to xPlus in Harbour City. This is the ceiling. I took a picture of it because it's SO BEAUTIFUL!!!!

Wedding ROUND 1















My friend's going to GET MARRIED next April. She asked me and one more friend to accompany her to set hair and wear the make-up for wedding banquet. Here are two pictures that I took in the shop. The left one that I took was during the make-up artist to set her hair. The right one was the finished one with red accessories on top.

Grad Show last DAY: film premiere










Yesterday's the last day of our Graduation Show in HKCEC. The last event was a film preimere. I didn't notice there was a red carpet or not. However, some renowned directors, designers and actor(Eric Kot) joined our joyful party. I did bring a digital camera with me yesterday, but I didn't take the photo with him.

Grad Show 1st DAY: setting up + fashion show













These are the 3D prints that made in Electronic Engineering Department. They're about 5-6 inches height.





















These are the pictures taken during the Fashion Show today. The models are so professional and pretty(but some are not, hehe!). This is the first time that I see a real fashion show. I don't remember why I didn't watch it last year in Graduation Show.

DragonBoat in DB

Dbay.com.hk

端午這一天,我幹了一件作為中國人最傳統的事,那便是欣賞龍舟賽事。本應並不是甚麼新奇的事,因為我住在大圍,正正適合走到街上看,但我去的地方偏偏不是城門河,而是大嶼山的愉景灣,因為與我同行的朋友從未去過,所以值得利用這個假期去逛逛(其實很多香港人都未到過愉景灣,嘻嘻)。

我拍這張照片,因為上面寫的「名店倉 有男裝」,實在太奇怪,雖說購物是女性的專利,所以為了要吸引男顧客,作了這一句非常差的標語。
I took this picture because the wording on this banner is really odd. But it's Chinese only. (It's pointless to translate into English. It's FUN because these six Chinese characters) 名店倉 有男裝










我非常喜歡這一張照片,當然最吸引我的是這個金髮小孩啦!!
I love this picture very much、of course、it's because of this blonde kid.









我們走到大白灣看龍舟, 但因為太熱, 和熱騰騰的沙都跑進我的鞋時, 逼我要把鞋脫掉, 然後到沙灘淺水的地方澗水, 這樣, 才稍為降溫.
照片中的影和腳都不是我!!!
Barefoot! But these are not my feet!!!! Haha!






沙灘穿著整齊,色彩較鮮艷的必然是參賽倢隊伍, 其他的都是圍觀的市民, 大白灣雖小, 但人的數目亦不少呢!!
Tai Pak Wan in DB - 1 There are many people on this side because it's close to the dragonboat race.






Tai Pak Wan in DB - 2 On the other side、less people are here. We have talked around here. However、the sand is EXTREMELY HOT~~~~ We put off our shoes and waded into the water. It's SO RELAXING!!





龍舟賽事
Dragonboat race





四周也擠滿人,連廣場內的所有的食肆也不例外,走到不同的地方也找不到空位,但又不想在炎炎夏日的天氣買外賣,我們當然希望找到一個室內,有冷氣的餐廳吃飯. 最後我們到了一間名"海灣餐廳"的門口,餐廳設於二樓,門外亦沒有擺放著餐牌,只好爬上樓梯看看.從門下上一塊小玻璃,我居然看見一隻隻掛起的燒味,而且看見一些吧枱的位置還有部份是空著,便匆匆推門而入.
這個便是我同行朋友叫的"海南雞飯",而我的則是"焗豬扖飯.".
Lunch at DB, This is not my hand again!





我跟龍舟的合照
Myself and a dragonboat













我跟同行朋友的合照。
吃過午餐,便走到外面的小露台乘涼。有一張兩座位的沙發,小茶几及太陽傘,這張照片便是那個時候拍的,用的當然是自拍加連拍。











這便是我趁著乘涼的時候拍,很舒服的環境,對不?遠眺看見的就是白沙灣,龍舟賽正在那裡進行中,左邊的是一間酒吧,我朋友開玩笑地說來個啤酒(當然那時候沒有,不過,之後便有了,哈哈),確實寫意。



這個女孩下午才到達愉景灣,我們又走到沙灘,並突然被拍了這張照片。











龍舟賽事到了下午兩時半左右便結束,比公佈的時間早了兩小時,之後我們到這間休息休息。

Hand Shakes shakes

我今天到了大埔的三門仔,而且同行的還有一些wakeboarding的愛好者,對於我這個從未試過的門外漢而言,增加不少的信心和安心。
我只玩過幾遍,現在我的雙手仍在,晚上擠牙膏的時候已經有點吃力。更不用說今天回到學校,連開門也有困難,因為我office的房門有密碼鎖,按完密碼之後,本該用拇指跟食指抓著門鎖,及另一隻手按著門柄打開(所以每一次開門必定要雙手並用)。但今日真的連開門的力都沒有,即使沒有wake,平時也要用點力,始於它也是門。
雖然辛苦,但最終都可以起水幾秒,對於我這個亳無運動細胞的人而言(我的中學同學便最清楚了),已經十分滿足了。上了水面只有幾秒,又被拉至掉進水裡,嗆到幾口海水,每一次再試之前,也會有人教我怎樣再做得好一點,我完全理解亦知道要怎樣做,但偏偏現實就做不了,因為全部我也忘記得一乾二淨 :P
I tried wakeboarding today (with some professionals. Of course, I'm the very first beginner!!!). This is FUN and EXCITED, but my hands are still sss~~ hh~~~~aaa~~~k~ee~iii~~~~nnnn~~gg~~shaking~~~~~~~~ now~~~~ My hands seems to DISCONNECT with my body. I can't imagine what I will feel tomorrow. I may not do anything because I'm now handicapped. (I have put on the "pain relieving spray" already...)
Anyway, it's happy to have my first try today! I could get out from the water for several SECONDS!!! It's several seconds ONLY!! But it's enough to me now. I totally understood what the professional taught me today... about how to hold handgrip, about how to stand up on the board and about how to balance my body with my legs, etc. Unfortunately, I totally forgot it when I was in the water. Sigh.... let me FOCUS MORE next time~~ hehe, I think I may have the second try~~~

My Little Niece

相片中便我可愛的小姪女「愷澄」,乳名「澄澄」。她現在四個月零兩日大。今日正是父親節,所以Wake完之後便到我哥家吃蛋糕和一家人吃飯(但每次我大哥都不在... 激死)。
我這個不定期出現的姑姐,不知道澄澄有沒有忘記我呢?(心痛)我每一次探望澄澄,必定會嚷著要抱她,但澄澄剛出世的一個月內,我完全不敢抱她,因為她全身軟綿綿的,我怕會弄傷她,但最怕的還是要是抱得不好,從我手中掉下來的時候怎麼辦。
這張照片是我媽拍的,亦是唯一一張比較清楚的一張,因為跟澄澄拍照亦盡可能避免用閃光燈,所以於室內拍照的時候便格外留神,按快門的同時一定要閉氣,但我做
My little niece, Hoi-ching, is now 4 months and 2 days old. I went to my brother's house to celebrate "Father's Day" today.

My mom took over 10 pictures for me and Hoi-ching. HOWEVER, this is the ONLY ONE which is LESS out of focus. I kept asking my mom how's the picture after each shoot. My mom said it's ok. She said she could see my face from the LCD monitor... But I know my mom very well. I randomly picked up one photo to preview and found out that is out of focus in fact. My mom said it's clear because she could see my face there. Actually my mom can't distinguish between out of focus and in of focus in that little digital camera monitor.
But, that's ok. At least, I've got ONE here. Hehe.
