前幾天收到十蚊份寄來的賀年卡，是她的爸爸製的，而祝福句就係佢自己寫。甚有過年feel，我覺得十蚊份的樣子有些少似“哪吒”。

今日去了Grace及正正家中拜年，因為早前她們去了澳洲旅遊，所以今天才有機會向她拜年。一如往年，都是在家中吃一餐甚豐富的晚飯，有蒜茸龍蝦，吉品鮑魚，日本燎參，蒸大石斑魚，冬菇豬手..等等。看了她們在澳洲的相片，有很多玩樂地方及行程十分豐富，不過除了團費貴外，消費項目價亦幾高昂，雖然好想去一敞，看來都睇怕要儲夠錢一段時間才可成行了。

I have received a new year card from Samantha several days ago. It was printed by his father but the greeting words wrote by her. Her clothes colour and style filled with chinese new year feel, but  her look likes "Nar Jar" as well.

We went to Grace and Edward's home for new year gathering today.  They just finished their Australian trip a few days ago.  We have had a very fruitful dinner. The menu included lobsters, japan abalone, japan sea cucumber, steam fish and pig hand with mushrooms. We also enjoyed their photos which I found there were many interesting activities we like. Also, the food were delicious and fresh, the weather was fine every day. Except the travel fees were high, those cost of activities were also expensive.  Although I love to be there in the future, I have to safe enough money for a long long time.

昨天是情人節。因為仍是新年假期，所以街上依然人頭湧湧。近幾年我都沒有出外慶祝，都是在家煮一頓西餐應吓節便算了。今日收到一包Godiva的朱古力，應該係幾好味的。我向來鍾情這牌子朱古力，不過太貴就不是時常買吧了。 

今天是毛毛的生日，我們去了唱K。晚餐到了名寶石餐廳，我們沒有告訴毛毛曦曦會到來祝賀，算是做就了一陣驚喜。曦曦亦“交足功課”不斷吻賀她，一吓子令到毛毛招架不住呢。

Yesterday was the Valentine's Day. Because it still in the lunar new year holiday, there were so crowdy in the street and full of persons carrying flowers.  I cooked the western style (spahgettis) at home tonight. I have not celebrated the day outside for several years because the dinner costs were expensive and less variety to be choosen.  I received a pack of Godiva chocolates this morning from a colleague. Godiva is my favourite although I still could not taste it very much. And because of the expensive price, I seldom buy.

Today is Momo's birthday. Happy Birthday to Momo!  We went to Karaoke and dinner at Tiffany Restaurat. This is the first time Momo been there. We have our lovely Hei hei in attendance but we did not tell Momo about that.  That might be a suprise to her.  I guess Annie Mama has instructed him to give greetings, love Hei kissed Momo much time that made her feels embarrased.

 今晚出席了一個非常有意義的聚會，就是和一班很久已沒有見面的港大體育中心的同事一起晚飯。發起人是劉Sir，而晚飯的主要原因是因為已移民多倫多的高Sir回港一行想見見大家之外，還有是直著新年大家出來聚首互道近況。一圍枱17人，雖然有些擠迫 ，但係反而感到大家好親切吧。我已離開港大12年了，想一想有些教師我也超過10年沒有見面了，他們有些從外地回流香港，如呂太、高Sir。Eileen 同Teresa Lee亦已提早退休享受生活。在科大做的劉Sir今年夏天都退休了。Dr Yuen 67歲之齡仍在台灣教書，亦趁著新年假期回港。Rosa, Mabel 同 Rhoda仍在體育中心工作，前兩者亦已工作超過25年了。阿基就跟我同病相憐，都係舊年被病魔欺侮，希望佢快D回復狀態吧。大家暢談之下，各人的仔女也都已長大出來工作或已成家立室。也有談起昔日大家在體育中心的生活，緬懷一番，時間真是過得快了。我們還影了一張合照。希望不久將來可再有機會同他們一聚。

I have joined a meaningful gathering tonight. The gathering was a dinner and the participants were my HKU former colleagues. The host is Lau Sir who is now working at HKUST. The dinner was in honour of Ko Sir who was coming from Toronto to visit his relatives in HK.  We had 17 persons in a table although it's really crowded.  We all met together, eat, say hello, new year greetings, etc.... talk... laugh.... talk...

I have left HKU since 1995 (over 12 years), so I have not yet met them more than 10 years.  Some of them have moved the home to Canada and USA, such as Mrs. Lui and Ko Sir.  Eileen and Teresa has early quit  and enjoying their 'retired' life.  Lau Sir will be retired this summer and will move his living place to Sui Wo Court (as my neibhour). Dr. Yuen , 67 years-old still teaches in Taiwan. Rosa, Mabel and Rhoda are still working at the sports centre of HKU. R and M have been working more than 25 years. Kei was suffered the Coronary Heart Disease and hope he has speedy recovery.  After the conversations, we knew their children have grown and some have developed their careers and married in New York.  The most impressed was the memories of the lives in HKU when we all are working together.  Times still went fast.  We took a group photo and I wish to meet them again for futher gathering.
