星期六睇完「死亡筆記」，都幾OK。

我好鍾意原作對人物嘅安排：開朗聰明嘅大學生走火入魔，殺人殺上癮。陰陽怪氣嘅就竟然係緝拿殺人「魔」嘅偵探。正因為咁，我就一口氣睇咗8本「死亡筆記」嘅漫畫。好攰~

不過我唔係咁鍾意故事嘅發展方法，太係金田一 - 乜都係佢講晒，原全唔需要觀眾「推理」。如果想睇懸疑片，一定失望；不過如果想歎吓冷氣，消磨兩粒鐘，你一定會滿意。

題外話 - 太古城UA啲冷氣真係好凍~

喜歡這兩首歌並非全因古巨基和楊千嬅，而是林夕的詞實在很「到」。

愛得太遲

歌手：古巨基 | 作曲：楊鎮邦＠宇宙大爆炸
填詞：林夕 | 編曲：雷頌德

我過去 那死黨 早晚共對 各也紮職以後 沒法 暢聚
而終於 相約到 但無言共對 疏淡如水
日夜做 見爸爸 剛好想呻 卻霎眼 看出他 多了皺紋
而他的蒼老感 是從來未覺 太內疚擔心
最心痛是 愛得太遲 有些心意 不可等某個日子
盲目地發奮 忙忙忙其實自私
夢中也習慣 有壓力要我得志
最可怕是 愛需要及時 只差一秒 心聲都已變歷史
忙極亦放肆 見我愛見的相知
要抱要吻要怎麼也好 偏要推說等下一次
我也覺 我體質 彷似下降 看了症得到是 別要太忙
而影碟 都掃光 但從來未看 因有事趕
日夜做 儲的錢 都應該夠 到聖誕 正好講 跟我白頭
誰知她開了口 未能挨下去 已恨我很久
錯失太易 愛得太遲 我怎想到 她忍不到那日子
盲目地發奮 忙忙忙從來未知
幸福會掠過 再也沒法說鍾意
愛一個字 也需要及時 只差一秒 心聲都已變歷史
為何未放肆 見我愛見的相知
要抱要吻要怎麼也好 不要相信一切有下次
相擁我所愛又花幾多秒 這幾秒 能夠做到又有多少
未算少 足夠遺憾忘掉
多少抱憾 多少過路人 太懂估計 卻不懂愛錫自身
人人在發奮 想起他朝都興奮
但今晚未過 你要過也很吸引
縱不信運 你不過是人 理想很 愛於咫尺卻在等
來日別操心 趁你有能力開心
世界有太多東西發生 不要等到天上俯瞰

大傻

歌手：楊千嬅 | 作曲：Eric Kwok
填詞：林夕 | 編曲：Eric Kwok

幻想 與他沿路大聲販賣
毛公仔彷似愛海無涯 被追趕也像情懷
也幻想 與他常為幸福自大
何必想舉債 那管要吃齋 歲月縱使難捱

傻瓜一點看 我們還有手仍能拖夢仍能造眼仍能看心仍能開
找到笑的理由 辛苦不算醜
我們還有嘴仍能親事仍能做戲仍能看歌仍能聽
天涯陪著走 屋雖細 有自由 不需品 懶擁有
沒錯 奇情從未及朱麗葉 奇蹟怎麼會夠汪明荃
仍可掌快樂大權 我自信
凡事樂在於屬自願
夢想不想遠 也很怕氣喘
撲入最高集團

* 傻瓜一點看 我們還有手仍能拖夢仍能造眼仍能看心仍能開
找到笑的理由 艱苦不算醜
我們還有嘴仍能親事仍能做戲仍能看歌仍能聽
天涯陪著走 家雖細 有自由 錢雖少 有溫柔 (無需要副手 也交到好友)
*

難有便別有 真不想折壽
能有才願有 不想與壓力互鬥 放浪地扮

故事終於到達尾聲，要走的還是要走，未走的只因時辰未到。

八月，好像是一個為別離而存在的月份。學生門要為升學問題各散東西，為生活打拚的三葉公司亞太區辦事處ほ仁亦要各奔前程。離別前的最後午餐本應充斥離愁別緒，但每人都想為這份共事多年的緣份，畫上完美的句號。

在今天下午5時30分後，一眾同事會先行離場，向台下觀眾一鞠躬。演完這個劇目，又有另一個故事由他們各自擔綱演出。人生本就是如此。

今天

        曲終

        人散

今日會考放榜，報章頭條是今年有25個十優「狀元」，而獲得0分的，也有2萬人。

政府宣傳有云「求學不是求分數」，但每每都只標榜有多少「狀元」。如果真的只為求學問，計分制又有啥用？為什麼不可以每個人都有繼續升學的機會？我知這是不可能的。我只是想「叉能住」政府不要單說漂亮話，踏實點做些事吧~

註：「叉能住」，challenge 是也

Chinese old sayings are full of wisdom.  We all say 柳暗花明又一村 - and yesterday, I found my 又一村.

Our Head Office in LA wants me to stay because (1) the re-organization study has not yet finished so they do not have any plan for future arrangement other than closing the regional office; (2) they do want me to stay.

Then, after my discussion with HR, I'll stay until I can find a new job, but not later than end of September 06.  During this time, I"ll take my 2 weeks' leave.  During then, I can think about my future.

So see, I was notified that I was laid off, then HO offered to keep me.  I turned down the offer, made myself prepared for leaving the company and then HO requested me to stay longer.  Now, I can still think about whether to stay or leave when I can find a new job. 

See~  the big boss up there is still taking care of me~

*    *    *    *

Everybody has his / her own burden - their parents and / or their children.  Mine is my parents.

My parents are both ill - long term ones.  Some people may think that I'm so unlucky - yes, I feel so sometime.  It's so unfair that why the others can do whatever they want but I can't because of them.  But think it to the bright side - I'm so lucky that whenever there is storm outside, there is still somebody at home waiting for me - to shelter me.

When we are getting older, the time we can spend with my parents is getting short - because of work, our personal life, as well as their journey in their lives. So, enjoy the time with your parents - we never know when they will leave us.

Aug 4, 2006 - it will be a special day in my memory.

It's the day of the Farewell Dinner of 3-Leaves Company Asia Pacific Regional Office.  It's not really a sad gathering - we celebrated.  We celebrated our reborn, and the friendship.

In this kind of gathering, there is always sensational part.  We had speeches of all the "heads".  Especially my dear boss Yvonne, she was the one who picked me as her assistant and then gave me the chance to expose to different perspectives.  Then, my dear boss Anthony presented me with the service award.

Oh~  What a night~  We laughed and cried and it's the best dinner I've ever had with people other than my family. 

I have posted the photos we took last night on my personal e-album and it will be part of my memory with such a great team forever.

Whenever there is people, there is politics.  But on Aug 4, 2006, we all put down our different opinions and enjoyed the last company gathering. 

Blog is something that you can record what you did and what you think.

Blog is also somewhere that you can sneak into others' daily life.  I love reading other people blog absolutely because of this.

Many young ones take this "潮" to have their own blog, and believe it or not, their blogs do have their standard format:

(1)  Today I woke up at what time, did what and then I went to sleep at what time. 

(2)  It's so hard to be in love.  But I really love him / her ...

... and many others that I cannot name ...

I love reading this kind of blog because it's funny.  為賦新詞強說愁, 無病呻吟 is the common "practice" of youngsters nowadays.  Once in a while when you see someone really writing something, it's 意外驚喜.  Isn't sad that HK (especially young) people being so shallow???

Now I know why those celebrity who write something and publish their books can be regarded as 才子 / 女.

習慣是種非常可怕的東西。它會在你不知不覺間攻入你的心，慢慢蠶食你的感覺；當你發現時，已為時已晚，無藥可救。

擔心亦然。你會為一些有可能發生的事，作有謂或無謂的臆測。可怕的地方，在於不到最後一分鐘，你不會知道故事的結局，而你的臆測是否無謂。

* * * * *

最後倒數正式開始。

我想，我近日愁眉不展的原因，有一部份是來自「習慣」。6年多來差不多每天都在同一時間離家，到同一個地方上班，見同一批人，做一樣的事 ... 習慣令我變得機械化，亦令我產生安全感。當你(其實是我~!)被告知這份安全感會在某年某月消失，你(仍然是我~!)會想不用再在固定時間、做同一件事、見同一批人會怎樣？更甚者，找不到新工作怎麼辦？

活了30多年，我想，這是時間要改變一下，要放寬心，不多想，也許，事情就會「船到橋頭自然直」。

始終，我非常不捨這一班與我並肩作戰了6年多的好同事，所以我有失戀的感覺。

I have started to count down my final days in the company - 9 more working days.

You all can understand that during this "transition period", no one would have any mood to work.  So, during this whole week, I have long lunch - I mean at least 2 hours.  Other than eating, I go to gym as well.  This afternoon, I had the Body Combat class.

Actually Body Combat is a very vigorous exercise that you will kick, punch and jump the whole class - and these were all what I did today.  But you know, if you want to lose some weight after working out, you cannot eat too much.  So now, you can imagine - a big girl sitting in office, tired and hungry.  Worst of all, because she doesn't want to work, she is SLEEPY ... especially in a rainy day like today ...

一直知道自己並不是人群的中心，朋友的寵兒。但在不開心時，仍舊有人關心。萬幸。

在別人眼中，失業並不是什麼一會事，而且我是拿著一筆錢離開的，所以跟本就沒有什麼大不了。可我就是犯賤，愛胡思亂想，有過人的「先天下之憂而憂」，所以近日愁眉不展。

但身邊的人就是萬二分的體貼，經常轉載一些勵志的文章給我，也有陪我吃喝玩樂的。但最令我窩心的，是遠在台灣的友人也幫我找工作。是你們令我相信，世界仍是溫暖的，我是受大家寵愛的。

Friends, this is the song I dedicte to you, all of you~

人生可有知己  - 關淑怡

深宵了　呆坐客廳聽晚風飄
無言地想起往昔共知心談笑
渡過了不少春與夏夜了

都不見了　時間送走不少歡笑
隨年月長大人或事更改變
覓理想的心不再復現了

看　人為了名利
強迫自己　刻意逢迎獻媚
忘掉自我　拼命去假裝
騙人亦騙自己
最後也許是眾叛人離

看　朋友已經
變得陌生　不再傾吐心聲
唯獨是你　你待我真以心
相處共對以真
你令我積極繼續前行

想通了　人性美醜都不緊要
唯有盡本份　那管路彎風狂嘯
有你共我一起闖心已樂極了

人生路有知心一起共勉
伴我一起闖　不再寂寞了
