The best

It is not the first time I ask my friends some questions.

Some of my friends tell me they keep finding the best person for themselves.

I saw one of my friends keep changing partners in his relationship. I wonder when he will be able to find the best one.

How do you know what kind of persons is the best?

This moment you think someone is the best, but it is not sure the next moment you will keep thinking that person is the best.

And do you think you are the best to someone either?

I think our mind keep changing with time, place, and different stage of our life.

The world is full of much distraction. Will it be a non-stop journey of finding the best person? Or during the life journey, you finally figure out the best one comes from the previous relationship but you cannot go back to the past.

It is difficult for me to understand what “the best” means…

Maybe time will let me know…

Silent midnight

I like this old song played by saxophone.
Listening to this song at the silent midnight.

The reality

The journey of life is full of challenges. The reality of life hits us hard. What I’ve learnt is that before you take any actions, think about the consequences. I know I learnt a lesson today. Besides following the feeling, being sensible is important. Before getting hurt, being sensible can avoid deeper hurt of feeling.

Again, it’s time to go to somewhere else.  

A dream last night

I am tired of thinking about the future.

Thinking, discussing and arguing, 
I did a lot of these with you many times.

Finally, we failed.

My decision is right.

You are going to have better future.

That’s not you said you were going to be alone.

You won’t be alone.

I am tired of thinking about the future.

I had a dream last night.

I kept saying goodbye to someone I known.

Then I kept walking downstairs in a building.

Though I didn’t know where I was going to.

I just want to be happy at this moment,

if I can be happy at this moment.

I’m tired, tired of thinking.

We're all alone

I like this  talent Japanese singer and this song.

It is nice to listen to this song at the midnight.

Move On

ABBA Move On

They say a restless body can hide a peaceful soul
A voyager and a settler, they both have a distant goal
If I explore the heavens, or if I search inside
Well, it really doesn't matter as long as I can tell myself
I've always tried.

Like a roller in the ocean, life is motion
Move on
Like a wind that's always blowing, life is flowing
Move on
Like the sunrise in the morning, life is dawning
Move on
How I treasure every minute
Being part of it, being in it
With the urge to move on

I've travelled every country, I've travelled in my mind
It seems we're on a journey, a trip through space and time
And somewhere lies the answer
To all the questions why
What really makes the difference
Between all dead and living things, the will to stay alive

Like a roller in the ocean
Life is motion
Move on
Like a wind that's always blowing
Life is flowing
Move on
Like the sunrise in the morning
Life is dawning
Move on
How I treasure every minute
Being part of it
Being in it
With the urge to move on

March & April 2010

Back from sorrow,

March

I met a new group of friends and did a cycling trip from Tung Chung town to Disneyland and Inspiration Lake. It is a long route, definitely not a family track, in my opinions. It is a great route you can appreciate the coastline of Lantau Island while you do the cycling. However, sometimes you need to cycle on the highways and it is a bit dangerous. With blue sky, blue ocean and great exercise, it was a perfect day for me.

April

I attended an advanced acupuncture training course for 2 weeks in Beijing. I did learn some new knowledge there. I could see a bit difference of the skills used by the northern part of acupuncturists in mainland China. I am not going to explain the detailed Chinese Medicine theories, very complicated to explain it in English (I’m lazy to translate it in Eng…). Something happened that I felt annoyed by a classmate, unluckily, came from HK. How hey annoyed me was that he kept explaining how useless or week the role of Chinese medicine took. At the beginning, I kept patient and discussed about the strength and the weakness with him. Finally, I figured out this guy was a bit arrogant and the worst thing was that why I had to have lunch with this guy at the first week!

「道不同不相為謀」 “Don't attempt to work with people whose way is not your way.” Analects of Confucius

Before the program would have finished soon, my Beijing friend was able to meet up with me finally. He was always busy in Beijing. He took me to the Japanese restaurant he manages there. I visited his restaurant a few times during my stay in Beijing. I took pic of my lunch set, made the photo as a mini postcard later in HK, then sent it back to Beijing. I’m glad he liked it very much. He also took me to Sequoia café which they provide good quality of coffee and what impressed me is that I never forgot the café in香山區. It is very beautiful and relaxing! I hope I can go there again so that I can see the maple leaves in Autumn.

The strangest thing I did in Beijing is that I accepted the invitation from my Huangzhou classmate to join a one-day local tour. Actually I really don’t recommend to do local trip in Beijing city, but my classmate hoped me to join her travel together before she went back to Huangzhou after the program finished. Ok…that’s why I joined and it costs RMB50 each person. You see…RMB 50 they emphasized they would take tourists to see the Great Wall, Imperial Tombs of the Ming and Qing Dynasties(明十三陵), Bird’s Nest…those facilities for the Olympic games and free lunch. 

Here are the problems….First, after the Great Wall visit, I started to know that I joined a Black Market local tour. The tour guide started to keep telling us that how bad luck brought to us if we visited the Imperial Tombs of the Ming and Qing Dynasties. =.= The coach stopped at the entrance and nobody got off the coach! It’s pretty weird how Chinese people believe such kind of silly rumors! It is understandable because most of these tourists came from rural areas or small towns in mainland China. Sometimes I really hate those awful citizens/companies who tried to cheat these innocent people…then they started bringing us to visit lots of souvenir shops. Finally the tour brought us to a building with the decoration looked like a night club….=.= yes…that was the final stop and I began to be nervous (I can say I’d been already brave enough..). The tour included families and it seemed they were accustomed to this kind of selling skills. I really felt uncomfortable because I didn’t know where I was, the stuffs looked like gang and the place looked like a night club. I knew I was stupid to join this tour. It is embarrassing for me to tell my friends about this story. 

Time flied and I had to go back to Hong Kong. I bought air ticket to Shenzhen at 6pm and it should be 3-hour flight. One important thing I’d never known before is that China Southern Airlines always delay their flight! I was stupid again that I bought ticket to Shenzhen instead of HK! I supposed to arrive Shenzhen at 9pm then I could take shuttle bus to the cross border and back home directly by train. Flight delay made me arrive at Shenzhen airport at 12 midnight! No shuttle bus available! I had to take taxi to Huanggang(皇崗) cross border. This cross border is terrible than any other cross borders! Then I had to take green mini bus back to Shatin and then took a taxi again back home at 2am!! Many drunk people on the min bus. So disgusting….I know I was STUPID that time…

Will keep update soon.
