Happy Birthday June 29, 2008 Time to say happy birthday to myself. As you all know, or forgot, it's my 20th bday today. It turned out not bad after all. It's not as exciting and surprising as my 19th when I got my AL result, nor was it as unique as my 18th when I was on the flight back from Japan and had some flight attendants celebrating with me alongside my dear friends. But it's special enough because a special someone was celebrating with me, in the evening. Sometimes, things may be far from perfect, but the art of relationship lies in the appreciation of what one has done for you. When you know deep down it's already the best she can do, what else can you ask for? I used to give extravagant speeches on my birthday, but this year I've decided to save it. There's some point in life that you'd like to keep yourself in low profile, and I think I've reached that point long enough. Sometimes, I'd even like to be more high-profile. The feeling of being loved is enjoyable and hard-to-resist. No wonder why some people would specify what bday present they want from their friends... Anyway I think I've been in bad mood long enough. Now my bday's gone, and I don't deserve the center of attention anymore. What personality should I adopt in my coming days? Well, I'd let God decide. In other words, it's rather random. But no matter what, I just want to become a better person. 
Pass June 27, 2008 Well, result is announced today. Thank God I passed. This does not bring me to happiness though. No, I'm still unhappy. All is fine June 25, 2008 It's been a long time since I blogged. I still have a bit of things to do tonight (despite now being 2.26 am on 26th), but I decided it's time that I wrote something.. In essence, a lot of things happened in the past few days. There were nice moments, there were emotional moments. I suffered, got better, and suffered again. But now, thanks to you, you, you and you (pointing at different people), all is fine. What's even better is that my friends are coming back/have come back for summer, which is something I did not expect but sure like it. Martin was back on Sunday, and Eugene is coming back on 5/7. Are they coming back for my bday? Well, not necessarily, but Mr Positive should think yes, right? Btw, I know I've mentioned to you guys that I'm a pessimistic person (despite being born in Summer). But then I decided that this is not what I intended to be. So, can you guys help me become optimistic? Not too perfect June 17, 2008 I am often referred to as a perfectionist. Why? In most cases this comment is not positive. They say sometimes I focus too much on details, sometimes I'm not perfect myself.. Yes, I'm not so much of a perfectionist. I don't think so at all. Most of the time, I'm seeking beauty only. Things can sometimes be much more beautiful by just paying more attention to one minor detail. In other words, one minor part could screw the whole thing. Isn't it damn true? Talking about beauty, I have a new theory today. Some say Math is beautiful because in some problems the solution is flawless. I'd say biology is even more beautiful. Like some biochemical pathways in the human body, they're so complex, yet work together so seamlessly. It requires hundreds of thousands of years of evolution before reaching such an equilibrium. So, what's more perfect than them? (Below is one beautiful example, the non-oxidative phase of the pentose phosphate pathway.) 
What should I do? June 15, 2008 Well, I guess this exam has really wasted too fxxking much of my time. For the two past months I spent most of my time puzzling. Yes, puzzling whether I should study more, puzzling whether I'd fail... I haven't studied much though. I'm just not in the mood to study... And when I'm studying alone, I'm bored. That's why a year ago, before AL, I studied with my friends every day. It made me feel better, less painful, ... But now my friends are scattered everywhere, what am I going to do? Perhaps it's time to get new friends. Upset again June 14, 2008 Well, am I being upset too frequently? Occasionally I find myself feeling down. Perhaps it's due to boredom, loneliness, or dissatisfaction. Yes, it's hard to satisfy myself these days. Is that because my standard has upgraded, or is that because good things seldom occurs to me? Hmm.. I think the thing I need most is care. To be specific, more care. 
Good old stuff June 12, 2008 As you know, K&C has a long history. And there's been many great stuff over the years. So from now on, whenever necessary, like when I'm not up to the mood to write something new, or when I am very very busy, or when I feel up to it, I'm going to post some of the greatest stuff in the past. For those who've read it already, this is a good chance for review; for those joining K&C more recently, it's a good chance that you learn more about my past. Isn't this idea gorgeous? Today's entry is not entirely old though. There's something new. I have one pix to show - well, what's above 5cm? Cick to see...  So, what's the something old? Done-done-done-done:
Science Museum, Le Bon Pain June 11, 2008 We went to Science Museum on Monday. Well, it's been a long time since I went there. Not much has changed though. There was indeed some changes, some new exhibition... The one on illusion was even quite interesting. Anyway.. You may want to ask: why Science Museum? Well, if I had a choice, I'd definitely not go to SM. Who doesn't want to visit something more cultural, more artistic? Well, there's nearly no place for art in Hong Kong, is there? Anyway the day was fun. Before we wrap up, I'd like to post one pix. This is supposed to be posted a few days ago, the day that we watched SATC. Well, when I went to Kln C Library more than a year ago studying for AL, Le Bon Pain was often my choice for breakfast. Its bread was so good, and I always can't forget the days Le Bon Pain helped me get through. Well, perhaps not in the same way you expect, but it did.. So let's always remember Le Bon Pain, the good bread.   iPhone 3G - some comments June 10, 2008 The iPhone 3G has finally been released. Major hardware upgrade only includes 3G data, GPS, and, well, the back. The back is now made of black/white glossy plastic. The new streamline shape at the back somehow looks better than the original iPhone, but luckily there is not much major changes.. What's lucky is that the new software is also available to existing iPhone owners, so is the app store. And thanks to the upcoming introduction of iphone in HK, I expect that I can download/buy softwares at the app store too, which is great. The sad news? Hmm.. It's one good for potential buyers, but one sad for owners: $199 for 8GB, $299 for 16GB. To make it simple, I'd say, the 8GB model costs as much as the 8GB iPod nano, and the 16GB model costs as much as the 8GB iPod touch. So, Apple, what are you going to do with iPods? Another post-exam relaxing day June 7, 2008 And yes, we watched Sex and the City today. It's a great movie.. By great, I'd say it's comparable to Enchanted. (Remember I said Enchanted is like the best movie I've seen lately?) Perhaps it's because of the cinema (we went to Palace APM), perhaps it's because of the release of stress, perhaps it's because of the movie itself, I really enjoyed myself. What about the person that I watched the film with? Well, that counts too.. It's really been a good day, but I'm going to get back to work though. Perhaps it's really time to start preparing for Triple Jump. But, well, after this series of post-exam relaxation, I've got the courage and power to face the upcoming unusual university summer (ie. exam and school instead of holiday). My dental buddies, I really hope u can work hard too. 
Trip to Macau June 6, 2008 So, six of us went to Macau from June 4-5. It was fun. We ate a lot, walked a lot, laughed a lot... What's the best about the trip is that it makes me feel my exam is finally over (despite that it is not), and that it's been a long time since I was happy. "去左兩日澳門﹐澳門俾我既印象就係好細﹑好舊﹑同好_大煙!! 其實都好好玩。講真﹐同一班fd去玩﹐去邊都可以好好玩架啦" Mcdull's Xanga June 6 2008 "去了兩日一夜的澳門 很多笑聲, 很多DIRT, 很多MIAO, 很多食物, 很多賭場, 很多鉅記, 很多豬肉乾 很少的煩惱, 很久沒有試過攰到訓著 要不是下了兩整天雨就更美好 不要緊, 下次再去其他地方吧!!!!" Cto's Xanga June 6 2008 Thanks guys, you've made a very good abstract of what it's been like these two days. What about my conclusion? Well, as I've said, it's fun, and I/we enjoyed myself/ourselves. Btw, I've made a little video of our trip, so you may get it here:  Mirrored at Youtube Or maybe I should share a little more photos..           Find out even more photos at picasa album. Exam's finished, only temporarily June 3, 2008 So, the I sat the paper today. It was not too difficult, and I guess I have done not too bad.. One lucky thing is that I have read through the whole past paper. What would happen if I didn't read the past paper? And then after the exam, I met A. We tried to bowl at Hitec, but we failed. We then moved to Telford for some car racing before dinner. Well, it was fun, but I need stronger rival.. Anyway... Dinner at Euro Go Go was not bad either. I used to think Euro Go Go sucks, but my thoughts have changed. U can give a try..  
 Counting on Simon Chiang June 2, 2008 It may be shameful to some, but I feel no guilt reading Simon Chiang's notes for revision. After all, what can be more effective? We all aim at getting the job done, don't we? Yes, I'm still struggling to read as much as possible, and I hope my effort will give me a pass tomorrow. Wish me luck. Just to say hi June 1, 2008 It's been an eventful week. I've suffered, but I'm doing fine. Exam is coming in two days, so I guess I shouldn't spend time writing too much before that. We're going to Macau after that, so isn't that great? PS Btw, the popularity index up to this moment is 35625, which makes (35625-35233) 392 visits in May, or on average 12.6 visits daily. Tragic. |
