任性

心情像过山车一样起起伏伏的过了两个星期：害怕、不安、犹豫、感动。。。感受的又何止文字能形容的。
最终发现，最深刻的是感动，庆幸一切任性都被包容接受，甚至支持。
谢谢。

I Won't Give Up

Very meaningful song from Jason Mraz's Love is a Four Letter Word.

Hua Hin Bangkok May2012

Had a 10 days trip in Thailand, 7 days for work in Hua Hin and 3 days for leisure at Bangkok.

Here's where I stay in Hua Hin, Sheraton Hua Hin Resort & Spa, basically a beach resort, with swimming pool winding through the entire place.

My room on 2nd floor, with a balcony facing the pool. I spent about 1min at the balcony.

 A huge bathtub which I only have chance to wash my feet once in it.

The beach at the hotel, but way too warm to be out there in the day. 

Took hotel buggy, which bring us to the main entrance of the hotel, in heavy rain, right side of me was all wet.

At a restaurant called La Mer, it is outdoor, just next to the beach, I was all the way at the edge. So proud of myself that I did not scream out loud when I saw the 1) frog (I think it is the restaurant's icon, they have a frog picture on the menu cover page), 2) thousands of flies at the car park, 3) dog & cat under our table, 4) unknown flying objects that flew passed every now & then

View right next to me.

Bought this for mama at one of the biggest mall in Hua Hin.

Stayed in Emporium Suites in Bangkok, the view from 39th floor. The hotel has a mini kitchen with fridge, oven, microwave, bread toaster, all pan & wok, bowl & utensils... Location wise, it is like staying in Ion Orchard, good if you are darn rich, not-so-good if you need to travel to more affordable places to shop.  

A boat ride near Grand Palace, got scammed to go, but oh-well, we get to see fish!

Lots & lots of fish...

Surprisingly and strangely, this is the only time we took photo together out of 3 days. The focus point here is... Burberry!

Keep Walking

Almost everyone will come across a bad shoe day some point in time. May it be shoe giving way, or a really painful blister.

I was at my colleague's wedding dinner yesterday night when suddenly... my shoes gave way 1/4 through the dinner. Can't blame the pair of heels, 'cause I have not worn it for more than 2 years, and I was walking at alarming speed while wearing it on my way to the hotel, overtaking 90% of the people in front of me.
So... the sole came off! what do I do?!?!?!

As the saying goes... Success is not about Victory, it is about how you stand up after a fall.
As usual, being the calm and practical engineer by training, I start to list my options and look for solutions:
1) Rip off the rubber sole and hope that the top portion will hold till I get home (
2) Ask the hotel staff to get me glue (that will take some time, stunned the hotel staff, may cause a commotion, in conclusion, Unglam!)
3) Look for available quick fix (rubber band - but don't see any around, I saw plastic strips in rubbish bin - but unglam to go bin digging, my rubber band for tying hair - but too thick will cause the sole to be uneven)

Finally... ta-da! I found the rubber band from the menu (yes, the golden thread you see that hold the 2 pages of menu together)! So I subtly read the menu, took out the rubber band, and went to the toilet to do myself magic~

A bad shoe day... but success lies in remaining poise & calm, finally home sweet home in a glam-glam way. (btw, if you want to know what happen to the shoes... it is on its way to incineration plant)

Oil Painting

你在忙的时候，我也没闲着，画了这个。。。

Home Alone

Home alone on a weekday.
Doctor made it sound real serious, and ask me to rest at home. Inflammation of throat and lymph nodes, top with flu and slight fever.
Going to have a quick bite and take medicine now.

Movies Year to Date

Watched a few movies this year, War Horse, The Descendents, J. Edgar, Ghost Rider 2, and Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close.

Extremely Loud And Incredibly Close is nice, go catch it if possible.

原谅我是这样的女生

美丽的鲜花阿，请原谅我欣赏你的风姿万种却不想把你捧进怀里。
漂亮的贝壳阿，请原谅我懂你得来不易却残忍的把你当残骸尸体。
甜甜的巧克力，请原谅我容得下你的苦涩却容不下你太过巧克力。
浪漫的情人节，请原谅我知道你让女生变公主却不浪漫的庆祝你。
Unique的人阿，请原谅我unique的成了unique的你的你。

起伏

起起伏伏的过了一阵子，难过，紧张，忙碌，气愤，沮丧，快乐。。。
也许永远不会有人知道双眼皮变三眼皮的前一天发生了什么事。。。
也许有些人永远都不会知道“OK”背后藏了多少的愤怒不满。。。
也许嘈杂中西来人往的人们永远不会知道沉默中的呐喊多么的震耳欲聋。。。
不说话，不代表没有话说，说了，又代表什么。
木头脸，不代表风平浪静，微笑，又代表什么。
看见的，听见的，又代表什么。

一颗心的容量有多大？是用 gram, liter, 还是cc计算？
可以装得下多少个人的喜怒哀乐？可以装得下身体都装不下的现实和可能。
也许你永远都不会知道哪一天哪一个人为你红了眼眶。。。
也许我永远都不会知道红了眼眶，为了谁。。。

童话

今天刚把一部韩国偶像剧看完，夸张的在一星期看完了。更夸张的是竟然还会一把眼泪一把鼻涕的追看王子和公主的童话故事。But remember，I am still an engineer at heart。一边看，一边清楚地知道为什么而感动。
童话故事存在于每个年代，每个国度，即使知道童话发生的几率微乎其微。童话活在人们的梦想和幻想，就像信仰给生活盼望和希望。所以制造童话的人也会一直存在，戏剧，电影，广告，钻石，婚纱照。。。
童话，正因为难得所以被仰望着。既然平行视线没有，短暂的仰望中就尽情地希望吧，然后把满载的情绪重回地面。

值得吗

值得吗？
其实不敢想
深怕想太多，冲动会被理性淹没
一旦往下坠，只会一直坠
沉没后可能再也找不回

讨厌 讨厌

讨厌空虚的数字
更讨厌看图说故事
讨厌爱表现
更讨厌躲起来
讨厌一个人
更讨厌一堆人
讨厌沉默
更讨厌说话
讨厌讨厌的
自己
累了
算了

First Oil Painting - The Sea

Woohoo! After 5 x 4 x 2 = 40 man-hour, spanned over 2 months, our first oil paint of "The Sea" (40 x 50cm) is finally completed today! Master piece & per session progression, documented evidence as above. Yeah!

Quarter Century

活过四分一个世纪，不得不觉得老了。四分一世纪，也没有什么成就，只是庆幸我还是我。
谢谢记得的，希望活过半世纪时，还是可以这样，你还是你，我还是我，我们还是我们。

礼物二号拍出来的礼物一号。

熊猫这辈子最遗憾的，就是拍不出彩色照片；而相机这辈子最遗憾的，就是不能自拍。

White Horse Princesses

3 of us went on our project "White Horse Princesses" on 15Oct, a sunny Saturday, at Horse Valley JB.

Woohoo! That's me riding Batman, the horse. We did the basic horse riding first. "Batman trot on..." and I went "up-down-up-down-up-down..." just doing that for 10min gave me muscles ache... at strange places like inner thighs and back of my arms.
Although none of us get to ride a white horse, we did see one. White horse off duty that day.
And behind us is the track where the horses gave us a walk. Nice quiet place.
深切的体会到“人善被人欺，马善被人骑”。根据导游说，Batman 以前是警马，但是太胆小了，警察不要它。众多马匹中，它最温驯，所以初级骑马训练都用它。其他的马是退休的赛马。这么老了还得工作。。。hmmm

Shy wrist rest

Piglet started work on Thursday...

On Friday morning, a curious person walked passed and spotted piglet, and stripped off piglet from its blanket!

Piglet is shy~

请叫我...

请叫我... 胆小鬼.

开不了口

也许不能完全明白那有多难

但因该还是会感到很骄傲
计划 策划 原来还得先说话
也许有一点遗憾
但遗憾所以更可贵
一切不是理所当然

凡事都有第一次

第一次被一只鸡感动

第一次打保龄球

第一次一天电召8辆的士

第一次看露天电影
第一次为梦境惭愧

第N次睡眼惺忪说GN

善忘

善忘也好，不想记得的快快忘了。

只是想记得的，需要用力的记得。

周末真好。周周抹掉疲惫，周周抹掉黑眼圈。

只是，又末了。
