Winner of China's Got Talent 2010 Final

Armless pianist Liu Wei - "You Are Beautiful!".

Glad or sad?

China's Got Talent

I viewed the performance of 2 contestants:

one man aged 49 who has had ups and downs in business, with a loving and supporting wife

one girl aged 8 who thinks it is a matter of course to sing at funerals as a livelihood

I enjoyed listening to their songs but I enjoyed all the more their conversations. I burst to laughters with tears.

happiness, where are u?

Tired! Tired of the calculated characters. Tired of the mean guys. Tired of the hypocrites. Tired of the boastful. Tired of the over-demanding. Tired of the narrow-minded. Tired of the nasty yet ignorant.

Is it a hoepless game for mankind, pursuing happiness like dogs racing after the fake rabbit which they will never catch?

a severely cold winter coming

That is the weather forecast.

We all have to take care.

E cannot let go of her grievances. I understand her bitterness but can't help. Sometimes I think I act like a fool or a coward so to retain peace & happiness. Is it pride or is it stupidity?

b has a pink Hello Kitty tricycle, not a bicycle. She can talk a lot and she enjoys our attention.

I like tofu buns.

fond memory


tiffany cheung & amanda

Each has his/her own course of life. Somtimes we meet and never separate. Sometimes our paths cross for a while, we just say "hi" & "bye".

Typhoon Megi and Oasis.

Typhoon Megi

It means catfish in Korean. It is very very severe and is expected to bring along great damage.

nature is most beautiful


honey honey honey

She knew there was a Hello Kitty at the bottom of the toy garbage bin and she knew there was a piano in the middle of the hall with a lady pianist playing nice music.

Could not be sweeter when she said "Yau Ah!" to correct our wrong assumption that there was not.

Eat Pray Love

Elizabeth Gilbert. Julia Roberts.

Totally Big American Womanism.

Financially strong. Living in accordance with feelings. Affords to travel across several countries without work. No moral ties for chastity. Live and love for today and tonight.

Be sentimental while there are no threats of hunger. Enjoy meditation and oriental religious therapy. A long vacation searching for rest and new romance.

This Is It by Michael Jackson. Pearl 930. A genius, and like many others, a tragedy.

bacalhau & tuna

Bacalhau is the Portguese word for dried & salted codfish. It goes yummy with rice or potatoes. Tuna goes well with pasta.

a day for good friends

So very very enjoyable.

We could have a nap in the midst of pingpong, spaghetti and mahjong, buying food and dinner.

Cockle. Venus clams sold out. The bottle of sake was used.

Very happy to receive a big present from Van.

It is always excited to have a trip ahead.

Looking forward to .................... Packing ..................... Back and have the fond memories.

The coming winter should be extremely cold, especially in the Northern Hemisphere.

Miss Koala, please take care.

pumpernickel

It is a type of very heavy, slightly sweet rye bread traditionally made with coarsely ground rye.

Now it is a tiny cafe nearby. Estella brought me there for a set lunch.

Dr Chong is nice.

head to toes

Non-stop minor illnesses and discomforts for the past few months, including a fall.

Nostalgia - which is the deepest wound?

a peaceful Sunday

Skype with Min early in the morning, followed by pingpong. Lunch with AVA. Visisted Pa in UCH in the evening and listened to his talks. Dinner with Mom. Home alone.

The air-con drippings above have been fixed.

In the male ward, all were lying there like living dead. Once they should be the masters in their household. Now they were just as helpless as one could be. Some family members coaxed them like babies and wiped their faces/bodies and fed them. Some others showed great impatience. Were they good and dutiful to their families all along? Or it would not matter any more?


Koala is having a cold. Poor thing!

National Day

Lunch with Mom. Dinner with E & her family.

Holiday is one of the best medicines for the workaholic and the stressful. I like it very much.

Fireworks.
