生不如死?
生病的感觉很不好受,很无奈。。。
不知不觉也麻烦了身边的人。
这一次,我很努力,努力去战胜病魔。。。
有谁能知道,过程中,我流了多少泪水。。。
P/S: 祝自己,早日康复,"从见光明" !

My Birthday
I have only an everyday story to tell. Today no flight. I had got enough sleep, skipped my breakfast and lunch was the first meal of my day. I had on an ordinary dress. I didn't put on make-up. I went for a movie. I walked with jaunty steps.
I really grew up. I don't really feel like celebrating. So, no more birthday party to me. I think I will only hold a party to celebrate my success: a welcome party after buying a house, a tea party after setting up a business and a dinner party of my wedding or a retiring party, for instance.
On the birthday-day itself, we should gradually perceive that time flies and life is really a challenge. Somehow, it can be an unhappy event like undertone of regret in it? I was thinking, since the day I was given to earth, how much contribution that I have really done? And I know I am not doing it well.
I received quite a few SMSes from friends and relatives. Birthday wishes were popped up on my Facebook one after another. Obviously, FB plays the part of reminding us our friends' birthday. Well, after all, these are so sweet. Thank you to all senders!
Whole day, somebody kept me company. That's really enough for me. And, I am glad for everything. Thank you, Mr. Teo.

GONG XI GONG XI
Just got back from my Hong Kong and San Francisco trip. Have been resting for two days in Singapore. Facts are familiar to me; I am heading to Moscow and Houston the day after tomorrow. My packing is now in progress. The coldest winter months at Moscow fall between November and mid-April. The temperature at Moscow is still minus degree for its winter. In order to protect myself against the raging cold temperature, I bought a pair of winter boots from Universal Traveler yesterday. Fortunately, I’d got my sizes for a pair of them. All the boots I used to have would have just stayed pretty as they have no use for keeping me warm enough! Packing and unpacking for a winter trip is not as easy as a summer trip. The practical skills needed in both. My patience towards them is inexhaustible! (Bravo!!!)
My San Francisco trip was fun. My very last trip before this was long time ago. I had my appetizing crabs at Fisherman's Wharf, this place does have a very savory reputation for its crabs! And not to miss out, Cheese Cake Factory for its cheese cakes, definitely! I did quite a lot of shopping as well for this trip. (Just can't help... You know...)
believe it or not, i finished the whole portion myself eventually
My trip at Hong Kong was delightful: friends, food and shopping! My Hong Kong trip is always fun with Miaw Miaw, and this time with her family too! Italian-American cuisine at Amaroni's Little Italy to Dim Sum at 'Mu Dan' with my traveling companions to New Year lunch at Miaw's place, a delectable meal at 'Tang Cao' with Jason till my favourite mango desserts, and my shopping shopping and shopping… Looking at my “war trophies”, wow… I am just too fortunate to have them all! It proved worthwhile to make the trip!

Better Feb
Before I made up my mind, I just wanted to do something fun this month. Coming 14th is not only Valentine’s Day, also first day of the Chinese New Year. My CNY celebrations for the past few years weren’t with my family. This is called enormous sacrifice that I have to make for this job. In the end, I just have to ask myself weather it’s certainly worth it. ( I promised to make it worth my while…)
I’ve changed my flight from South Korea – Seoul to Hong Kong. I don’t have any idea if Koreans do celebrate CNY as well. In order to play it safe, I’d rather fly to Hong Kong. Although, I will be still on duty, 8 days: SIN-HKG-SFO-HKG-SIN, I just can’t wait to be there to meet Miaw Miaw, my best ‘Hong-Kie-pal’! I believe I will share more after the entire trip. Apparently, it will be an exciting and a memorable one on the day I reach Hong Kong from San Francisco!
One more thing, wherever I am, packing and unpacking are my routine procedure. And, I have to proceed now. bye!

Bonnie's BIG BIG Day
One word to describe the wedding – grand!
You’d have no idea what delight her wedding gave me. It is somehow hard to believe that Bonnie is no longer the pretty little girl down the street, but she is old enough to be married. (It reminds us our age.) My dear friend Bonnie got married, and too that to such a wonderful man! And, I think he’s a mighty lucky fellow! Forever, they both have my best wishes for a long and happy life together! The wedding banquet was a treat to be remembered forever. It has been long since the days when we all were in college together. My visit meant a great deal to me, permitting us, as it did to catch up on the years between – and that isn’t always easy! I was glad to be there. In fact, I meet up with Bonnie at J.B often but not to the rest. By writing this, first, it is pleasant to express appreciation for such a pleasure to meet all of them again! Second, in writing, I live over again an evening so delightful that I like to recall it as often as possible.
Congratulations again!
Dear friends, thanks again! Do take care, good wishes for the future!

New Year New Hope
Have you thought of coming out with a brand new wish lists for the year? Have you taken out your calculator, started to operate the considerable sum of money that you’re going to earn from your current job this year? Have you done your brainstorming and jotted down your thoughts for a better year coming up? Congratulations for those who has made his/her first step and ready to welcome the year of 2010! If you’ve not, no worries as it’s never too late to start now! Slowly take a few deep breaths, set and go! In our fast-paced lives, stress is always calling. Trust me, by having a little simple idea on how to organize your life, helps you to spend your time productively.
2009 – the difficult year for the entire world. Many well known companies went bankrupt while others downsized. The automotive industry was going through a very rough patch, obviously. The retail, travel and culinary sectors were all feeling the same pinch as well. Since this was a global financial crisis, the trickledown effect was pushing everyone to work smarter, to make wiser investment decisions and to spend money more effectively and to cut corners wherever possible. For most of us, 2009 was a year of trials and tribulations. The way of doing business would change – in fact, sometimes for the better. For some others, it would be a year for new opportunities, so all is not that bad especially when we look at it with a smiley face. No matter how tough the life was, we are glad that the simpler pleasures in life were not forgotten.
It was just a review. There were no standard guidelines for true happiness. As long as you’re comfortable with things that you’re doing, go ahead! Bear in mind, complaining and assuming don’t improve situation. So, let’s be positive all the time and move forward! Cheers, 2010! A better year for you and for me!
