People tend to give excuses than speak out their mind straightly. I personally think excuses are much more terrible than cruel truth. Truth might be hurting, but it shows honesty. Giving excuses doesn't mean you're polite, it only makes you a pretentious person.

My spainsih language exchange started to ask me out after the 2nd LE. I didn't accept as I was busy with work and travelling and stuff at first several times. In fact I merely wanted to exchange language, nothing else. The real truth is he's not my type. So I only focused on LE with him even tho he seemed not to give up asking me out. Then one day I met him on YM and he invited me again for "whatever i wanted to do". I didn't want to break his heart but I counldn't pretend anymore, so finally I told him I only want friendship and LE. He didn't reply my sms anymore.

A friend of mine has rejected my sunday invitation 3 times. Same excuses have been used-- I need to write report for work. Sometimes i got compensation, which is a hang out at some week day, but god knows I don't really feel comfortable catching any appointment during weekdays as my off time is unpredictable. And this is my old friend who knows my lifestyle well. The truth behind the excuses is, the report only takes him 2-3 hours to write and he's been out on saturday and perhaps sunday is his chillout day. But he chose to give excuses rather than being honest. I don't invite him any more.

The most common excuse at work is "i don't know how to do it" or "no one tells me how to do it. Everytime I heard of it I knew one is going to pass responsibilities, and I knew one is not reliable at all. You find this kind of people everywhere and you can do nothing with them. They're smart in some way but also a piece of rubbish in this world.

Salamat Sabah!

One night in HK

I don't know how I should call this... Holdup? Stuck? Whatever... the fact is this stupid colleague forgot that we needed to get another visa for entering to china again (now we got single entry only), after she forgot the way to HK office, where she's been for several times, and still insisited to try to walk there and not just hopped on a taxi. Anyway, until the visa office was closed we just found out we were not able to go back to SZ dorm and had to stay in HK with no spare clothes and sanitary articles and cosmetics and stuff. Luckily my team boss just got here today and we were put in same flat of HK dorm so we can at least borrow some stuff from him (haha... yes what can 2 girls borrow from a guy? Nothing! except for tooth paste...). I was ok for this accident and I had some simple makeup in bag with me all the time, and I'm not quite picky with shampoo or bath gel or makeups or any personal care stuff (see girls are so annoying...), so I only need to get tooth brush & disaposible panties in supermarket, and a t-shirt in street stand. My stupid colleague, however, were the worried one and right after offwork she split with us and run immediatley to makeup stores for her "preferred brands". In fact I'm a bit excited about the stay in Hk cuz this is my first time here and my stupid colleague has no plan to know when we'll be in HK or in SZ (and I'm assigned to follow her...!??) Anyway, I'm glad my boss (from my offshore team) is here and I'm able to complain to him for the chaos of china team.

Because of looking for a top, I had chance to go to night market (temple street), downtown Mongkok (旺角) and Nathan street. The booths in "night market" started to pack up very early around 11pm, but on the contrary tea resturants are getting more and more packed after 11pm and on Nathan street the crowds would make you confused if it's only dinner time or already midnight. The night market is nothing special to the ones in taiwan (taiwan markets are even bigger tho), same lots of "made in china" cheap junks. HK dorm is just upstairs of the office which is less clean and older than SZ dorm, but it's good to be able to watch HK tv and see what's going on in this place (I was quite fed up with SZ tv for same programs as taiwan's). Again I enjoy quite much in listening to HK's cantonese accents but too bad i don't have much time to observe their living culture this time. Oh one thing is interesting, that the tea resturants always have a lot of menu sheets (sometimes more than 10) on the table instead of a booklet in several pages, and the food can be ranged from chinese to cantonese to thai to italian to malay to american.... amazing isn't it? Those cooks are worthy of the name "Iron Chefs"!

By the way, SZ massage is also incredible and I will tell you more later but you can see the pic first.

Since I can't read my blog but I can get thru to the edit page (unreasonsably weird, isn't it?), I decided to keep writing stuff here no matter it shows up or not and no matter if anyone comments or not.

So today I thought perhaps I could link to my site thru other web server or someone else's pages instead of the direct link (in fact this way didn't work...@#$%&...), I found my blog is linked in someone's site who I don't even know! This guy owns Dilla Deliria and if you look at the "links" my SQS is there! What an amazing finding and I HAVE NO IDEA who the owner is! Maybe I should write an introduction letter to him/her and exchange some thoughts of blogging online and my honor of being titled on his/her page, and sutff. Well maybe I shouldn't until his/her site gets more archieves (it's often that people open a site, post a couple of stuffs, then disappear forever, and those on his/her links become dead as well like old newspapers sitting in an empty house day after day year after year and turning yellow dried wrinkled with bugs bodies or shit on it......). Maybe I should start with commenting on his/her blog, but only when he/she wrote something interesting...

Now you know how bored I am here in ShenZhen. And 4/5 is not a holiday here!!>_<

Shitty China!

Yes it's not only a shitty country but also very impudent because it blocks other country's web links and forbids everyone in its land to read info from other country! Yes this is what it has done to taiwan's web links! Doesn't it sound childish and immature? What does its gov think? Fine, if only .com.tw is forbidden it's fine, I can stop reading twn yahoo news for some days with no problem. But it dares to block my blog!! My site doesn't have any .tw at all and has no sexual appearance, why it also got blocked?? Not only can't mine get thru but also some other blogs of my friends'. What are our sites to do with politics??

Damn country and I curse it for its rudeness impudence stupidity foolery vulgarity and etc etc etc..........................!!!

China Frog

Ok here I'm in CHINA! Ha this once was the country I refused to visit, or say, the last country I'd visit. But who would know that I'd step on this land at this moment! The feeling to china is weird, that we share same culture and ancestors, but we're on the other hand so different in a lot of aspects-- accents, thoughts, usage of phrases, slangs... etc. We eat same food, but the way we call resturants or hotels or office buildings, supermarket, shops... are totally different. We speak same language, listen to same chinese pops, admire same singers or tv stars, but the newspapers are written in different letters and different stories. Everything just interests me in a weird way.

The bright side is our shen-zhen office is quite well-equipped and company dorm is very cozy and homely. Also good food is around the corner which keeps seducing me for giving up my diet supplement. No wonder almost every coworker came back from china with bigger belly or chubbier face.

Oops I think I should stop here in case you guys misunderstand that I'm here for holidays.:P Oh by the way, does anyone want copied dvd?;)
