Recently, over a meal.. . one of my colleagues pointed out to colleagues AA and looking at me and say:"Oh,Christopher havn't taken any MC for this year yet, yeah?"
AA half joking and with said sacrastically:" He work so hard and wana get promoted!!"
I wonder is AA so sore-eyed that I havn't taken any MC? What is wrong with me being mentally and physically fit for the time being that I dun see the need to take a real or fake MC yet? If you are really unfit to work, then stay at home and rest - I didn't and won't stop you. If you are really so fed up with the company, then go ahead and find another one - I didn't and won't stop you. So why are you so unhappy that I didn't take any MC yet?
Promotion.. . most of the people would want a promotion. Dun you? I wan it - so that I could have more $$$. Dun you wan more $$$?? You may not want $$$ for more job resposibilities but I want.
That is not the first time I have heard from AA. Previoulsy, AA also appeared unhappy that I had volunteer to work for more $$$.
What a sore-eye fellow.

Natural Drug
Since young, I had discovered that I like to run. I supposed it is during my NS days, that I had fully realised it. I just love to run, run and run.
I like to run leisurely. I like to think of things during run. Somehow, it made me relax at times. Its fun and its gets a high feeling. Yeah, a runner's high.
Almost everytime after a run, I have a feel-good feeling. I can't explain it. Only in the later stage, I know the feeling might be caused from the endorphins. Yeah, I like that feel :) . I suppose this is one natural drug that one could experience and enjoy legally :)

Fashion Ambush
Today I have watched the last episode of Fashion Ambush. Surprisingly, this programme have made me glued and chase over it. The programme is about the hosts looking out for people who dress stylishly on the street. It will also cover the shop that these people wear. Hmmm.. . the most interesting part is Trey, the host-stylist, will give tips on-the-spot on how to further enhance the look, explaining why does it looks good and other ways to use the accessories.
Fashion Ambush is really interesting and informative! haa.. . hope it will be back to ambush the streets again!!! :)

Chasing Leslie Cheung ...
1st of April is April Fool's Day.
That was what I had always remember for that day... but, since 1 April 2003, it was no longer just an April Fool's Day, it is also the death annivesary day of Leslie Cheung that I remember of.
Of course, on that day, I will also recall his tune of 追, Chase. A silky song with the beautiful piano opening. I didn't know much of his songs, but, this is one song that I have always love ... from him. It is one of the most beautiful song. The song is so touching ... ..
A beautiful song by beautiful Leslie.
Let's hope Leslie could chase and catches his beautiful dream ... :)
Here is the English lyrics abstracted from the movie 金枝玉葉:
Living and chasing
Whom should I miss this momen
I'll say only you whom I can't miss
Good scenery like illusion
Who'll understand life
Living for love is still me belief
Who's greater than you
Fail or success
Is no more important
Who's beter than you
You turn the tempest into warm fire
Keep on chasing, chase for every moment in the life
But it's stupid
Since you're my goal
Keep on chasing, chase for the basic need of life
But I've got so much
It's ordinary but important to be with you
Btw, this song is compose by Dick Lee. :)

Wonderful Air
Had been watching Gems of Life (Zhu Guan Bao Qi) recently... it's a great drama... the story, actors, humor and the luxurious blah blah... haa.. and yeah, the show is also promoting diamond, the bling bling, yeah, it kinda reflect one's life and the wealthy lifestyle in the show .. Another great impact of the show is, nevertheless, the song in the midst of the drama. They had pull it off again ... :)
Initially when I heard the song, it sound rather familiar, but I just can't piece the song tittle or singer together. It is only upon hearing it several times afterward... it begin to drawn on me that ... haaa.... it is the piece that I like but didn't really listen to... coz the version that I have sound rather sad and heavy... :p .
The piece that is play on the Gems of Life is Bach - Air on The G String. The version on the drama had been given a lighter twist to it. The 1st version is the angelic voice that "oooOO" the piece so pure and innocently. The 2nd version is another soft rendition on it - guitar strumming. Both have a similiarity feel to the classical Bach's orchestral version - sadness. Both piece also seems to have alot to tell, lots of emotion entrapped inside. One or both seems to gone through many ups and downs in a/few relationships alone/together. It's kinda bittersweet with lots of happy moments before ... and I hope thereafter as well :)
Oh, the closest guitar version that I could find is this:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FUPx42UmSng
Look at the way he play. Woww. The world seems to twirl in slow motion.. . He play it so ... relaxing. He seems to be into the piece... into the "Air world" ... not bother by what surrounding him. He seems to play the music in a slow motion but the music flow seamlessly and wonderfully. :) . A beautiful and amazing guitar version.
Btw, do that guy look familiar to you? Someone comments that he look like Bill Gates :) .. hee ...
Oh yeah, if you know the version of the "Anglic Voice", please let me know :) . I have been searching in vain for it.

Cringing Papa and Senseless Mama
While on my way to the mrt station... I saw a lady with a child passing by.. as the lady was walking down the stairs, she called out loudly to a man (apparently her husband) with another child," Papa, why are you still here?" .. Gooosh, that man was her husband, yet she was calling him "Papa" !!??
I had heard husband and wife calling each other "Papa-Mama" many times. And everytime, it never fail to cringe me. And most of the time, they like to call out the cringing-name LOUDLY. Do they really think it is sweet and romantic to call each other as "Papa-Mama"? Frankly, I find it rather utterly disgusting and nonsensical. Do they know the meaning of "Papa" and "Mama"? The word "Papa" means that person is your father - YOU are his child.
How do one could actually find it romantic to call your spouse as "Father"? It is completely senseless.
Sometimes, I could also heard couple calling each other as "Dar Dar". I suppose it is a short abbreviation from "Darling". Well, if one wana call her loved ones as "Darling", then just say it! Please say ,"Darling", the exact word and dun spoil the word as "Dar Dar". It is neither cute nor endearing at all.
There are many sweet names in the air, awaiting one to grasp with both hands... and blow sweet-whispers to your loved ones.
If one duno, then that's certainly unromantic.
Sometimes, I had also overheard the mother calling out her little daughter's name loudly as "Mei Mei"!!! Ohhhh!! "Mei Mei" in Mandarin means younger sister. Why do a mother call her daughter ... as younger sister? Irrational. Again, there are many sweet little names for ones' beloved little daughter.
There are many beautiful names up there, yeah, for one to romance with your beloved ones. If one really duno, then, please.. just call your spouse or daugther.. their actual name.

Tc, Wei Hua
Recently a relative of mine had a mishap.. and die in an unfortunate incident. He is only around 31yrs, yeah, although we are not very close.. but we used to play together when we very, very young. He and I are small frame.. skinny little boys :p ... well.. fast forward to today, he's gone :(
In a blink, yeah, he's gone.
His mum is totally lost. When I bidding goodbye to her (at the wake), she look at me.. saying 'you had grown up' .. I could tell from her eye that.. she is also implying ' Wei Hwa is about the same age as you, about yr height... he should be standing here... if only...'

K. 311-Alla turca Allegretto - Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
The other day... I am walking past a flat near my house.... hmmm.... I hear a familiar piano tune.. i pause.. stop and stand there. The melody is really catchy and absorbing. It is light, fast, fairytale-like and... the pianist seem to play it seamlessly. I wonder is anyone playing it 'live' now or is it from a CD? The music coming above, seems to be the same block of flat which I heard a young girl playing beautiful music when i am practising my staircse climbing 1 year ago. I wonder could it be the same girl or juz a CD playing? Btw the piece that I heard was K. 311-Alla turca Allegretto - Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.
Anyway, I juz stood rooted ... coz the music is too beautiful :)
I used to think... how I wish my neighbour is a piano or volin lover. From time to time, playing beautiful pieces ... hee.. but hopefully not playing .. sad and solemn pieces .. too often ... :p ... ironically, sad music is beautiful at times, as they could made u sit still.. unattached from the world.. and sink you into a desserted garden .. letting you absorb and touching your heart :p

The Devil Wears Prada
I have finally catch the film - The Devil Wears Prada :)
Ooh.. I should have watch it earlier! It's really a fashion film.. hee.. well, but at least it's better late than never... not too late, yet :)
Meryl Streep, Meryl Streep.. she fit into the 'devil' seamlessly. Yeah, though she is such a big name, it's a shame of me to admit that I have not catch many of her production to date. Her performance as Miranda - a powerful, perfectionist, workaholics, fearsome, icy editor-in-chief, is a truly great actress. No doubt.
Oh yeah, Anne Hathaway put in wonderful perforamance as a PA - a sweet, aspiring journalist with her own down-to-earth principle. Again, it's rather embarassing to say I have not watch any of the sweet Anne Hathaway's film. I can't remember, did I?
Stanley Tucci... ? Pardon me, yet again... I have neither seen nor heard of him before... But he impress me!! Yeah, he look every bit like a topsy-fashion-advisor!
Oh, when I saw Simon Baker.. I thought he is Jamie Olivier.. hee.. I still do find him looking like a twin brother of Jamie ...hee...
I do enjoy this humorous and bitchy film.. very much :) .. Letting me getting a glimpse into the fashion industry and professional people who hold high esteem in what they love and doing. Well, the fast pacing fashion film also show that there's a 'human kindess' in many soul :) .. how warm it is :)
During and after watching this fashion film.. . it make me wana listen to the groove of Vogue.. again :)

5 For $10.00 VCD
This evening, a trip to my neighbourhood VCD/DVD shop... just to taking a look around... BUT ended up buying 15 film :) !!!! Hee... initially, I just wanted to went inside the shop to browse through the vcd/dvd... but upon knowing that there were some great films going at 5 for $10, I decided to take 5 vcd then. As I run through the tittles, I picked up 1, 2, 3, ...... 8, 9..... 14, 15. Oh! I ended up picking 15 tittles :p
Hmmm... well, I dunno is it good that I had stop at 15 vcd? Or should I grab the dvd at 2 for $15? Well, anyway, currently I couldn't watch dvd at home, hence, I decided to snatch up the vcd :p.. it's hard to get a deal of 15 films for $30 :)
I suppose if I have a dvd player device at home now, I might be running my hands over the dvd selections.. haa.. .
Hee... btw, I had got hold of a mixture of films. I got the action, thriller, gripping and moving film.. Here, we go: Jackal, Dr Jekyll & Mr Hyde, Sleepers, Fracture, The Manchurian Candidate, No Country For Old Men, Charlie Wilson's War, Enigma, Pride & Glory, The Insider, The Assasination Of Jesse James By The Coward Robert Ford, A Mighty Heart, Infernal Affairs, Infernal Affairs II, Infernal Affairs III.
Well, among all these films, the ones that I wanted to watch most and with high anticipation would be The Insider and Sleepers. Both films starring great actors, Al Pacino, Russel Crowe, Brad Pitt, Robert De Niro and Dustin Hoffman... woww.. feel like having a great time watcing the films with coffee to go along... hee.. :)

Cage house, cage people, cage dog
Last weekend, I had read an article that report 1 out of 6 people in Hong Kong live in poverty.
In Hong Kong, some people stay in cage house. They are the cage people. Some call them cage dog. And there are some who live in a cramped space of less than 2sq m.
They are around 10000 cage people and 90000 live in squalid cubicles.
Sometimes it's disturbing to came across such reality.
