Catching up with my life

because i have been lazy and has been ordered to hang around my parents' bed more often before they go to sleep rather than going online on Ophelia in the living room...

i'm obviously very behind on blogging, so let's summarise once again


Saturday 23rd January, 2011
Met up with Valerie Rose at iSquare @ TST,
and was reminded that this girl doesn't need any physical or financial support,
but needs all the emotional support and love that one can give.
Must remember to give her more :-)



Also found out she doesn't particularly like Japanese food, or rather, any cuisine that's got a sweet twist to it, besides a proper dessert dish.
Must remember that also.



Sunday 24th January, 2011
Went to some old people's home with MK Baptist fellowship to supposedly clean their tiny little studio, or just a tiny room with a sink rather, but the old person we were supposed to find was super agile and didn't let us clean his stuff even though he's got dishes unwashed piled up in the sink.
He used to be a professional cook apparently~

No matter, we talked to him and he was happy for us to come visit him again.
Hope we can do that and not lie :-)


Monday 25th January, 2011
Began the day nice and early~ in preparation for one whole day of food and fun
only to find myself the only there on time T_T
In the end, cherry tong, dai big, cho and the late coming dikdik all got there..
But I swear no one besides donna qualifies to warn me not to be late no more =.=

So the first stop was the awesome dimsim that is at Sham Shui Po recommended by Osco Cho aka Michelin Food Guide XD

All the dim sim were generally quite awesome, but the must try would be the 蘿蔔糕 (carrot cake) and 叉燒包 (BBQ pork bun)
like OMG just looking at this photo makes me feel like eating it again.
and i shall wahaha 
when ang comes back :D:D:D:D:D


the next stop was K at mk where sai lo and some other ridiculously late and disorganised person finally joined us =P
sang for... about 5 hours i think...
started to run out of songs to sing O_o 

so we left for dinner and where we were joined by jeremy and johnson
the service at that hot pot place was horribly unprofessional, rude and disrespectful
the food was acceptably mediocre but was definitely overpriced 
overall pathetic impression of the place and will never set foot in there ever again
*is super unimpressed*

So this day began beautifully but ended not so cool-ly.
but overall still some awesome time catching up with old time brothers and sisters <3


Tuesday 26th January, 2011
Basically stayed at home all day
Got rejected by boyfriend for dinner cos he said he was too tired and too poor, 
but who went to play arcade games after his day of outing

sigh
so went out to have dinner with parents who left early for their theological lessons
and i had to finish my dinner in a restaurant alone sitting at a 4 seater.... 
is also unimpressed.

so got myself a ring to make myself feel better (lol)


Wednesday 27th January, 2011 
Music practice at Sham Shui Po... think that was the only thing i did that day
only time i left the house haha


Thursday 28th January, 2011
Financial meeting again with my personal financial planner/boyfriend at Starbucks@Gateway
left for some super overpriced wanton noodle and quite nice hongky street side cheung fun
walked around kowloon park aquatic centre and the park itself for fun :-)


Friday 29th January, 2011
mum on holiday again so got woken up by her voice telling me that we're going to yum cha with ah poh in like... less than an hours time =P
then walked further out to the local supermarket for cheap cat food then window shopped around with mum at jusco in preparation for the 5% off on the 2nd of Feb XD



okay that's one week done~
now on to this week...



---
I can never thank God enough for happy times with my blood family and my brothers and sisters in Christ,
I pray that everyone else around me can see and share this joy from being a child of God

失業了

剛收到消息
本姑娘要失業了

雖然可以花的錢會少了
但讀書看聖經的時間該會多一點吧
(真的做才好...)

不過 失業的第一天先拍了天拖 :-)
幹了些很是情侶會做的事
吃飯逛街看浪漫喜劇 "非誠勿擾II"

電影是好漂亮
角色描述得好真實好可愛
對話有笑點有感動點
他們自己跟互相之間的關係也是有成長的說
但就這樣吧
沒甚麼其他記得的...

One Republic 的新專輯在HMV賣HKD175!
那太誇張了吧?!

oh 不過買了睫毛夾 :D
還是被sales姐姐兩句便騙到買了貴的那一隻...
至少是比shiseido那個便宜吧~
看自己有多少心機去弄這個弄那個
你看 那眼線也沒在玩了吧
ai~

Thank God for a day, well more than a day now, of rest so I could study his words more closely and reflect on how my life can more closely reflect that of a Christ-follower.

Day off

Yesterday i had my first weekday off since i started working last week...

began the day nice and early cos we're poor
early session is HKD55 instead of the HKD100 at night!!
the two of us saved HKD90 in total!!

before we walked in to watch Narnia: the Voyage of the Dawn Treader
we walked in and out of KFC failing to get portugese tarts for breakfast.

so we scrapped that and just walked into the cinema.
move was alright.
CGs still pretty, kids were... arguably less annoying than before, Prince Caspian still hot XD
but everything just seemed really rushed.
nothing in particular impressed me very much... just everything was quite pretty in general?
i feel like the movie didn't do the book justice even though i haven't read the book, hence i shall read the book... some time soon.
it is at least on my list of bedtime stories to read to my children when i have some XDDDD

then we walked into 信和 to both look for 2nd hand amei/faye or whatever CDs, as well as sell my signed Bosco EP T__________________T
after looking through the shop and failing to find the amei CD i wanted, i gathered all the courage i had in the little volume i have and asked the shop owner if i could sell my CD here.

he kindly asked, what have you got?
i reluctantly uttered, er... em... i've got... a... er... signed.... Bosc-
"no i don't want bosco"

T_____________________________________________T

i don't blame him, really i don't.


had lunch that was accompanied by HK style french toast (lol how does that work)
then went to wan chai for Johnson's briefing~ that went for 2 hours.
did not know wan chai, or at least that section of wan chai, literally has nothing to see :x
ended up sitting in a Pacific Coffee Company in the corner, ordered a latte in english and gave the girl at the counter a slight shock, received a large mug of bitter coffee with very thick and dense foam...
doesn't matter, i paid for the comfy couch and air-con, not for the coffee =P
*wishes i had better camera phone to take picture*

we took a dingding to Causeway Bay, because i don't like mtr-ing everywhere :-)
walked around some more, compulsively bought a beanie because johnson said i looked good in a beanie
and i've been wanting a long thin one that dangles at the back so i can wear when i get off the plane
thought it was reasonable price, so i tried on a few, decided on the one to get, and the sales lady told me a completely different price.
no she didn't lie to me.
she did tell me they had a price range.
i was just stupid enough not to ask...
oh well at least it's pretty


after steak dinner at Cafe de Coral (lol) we walked around some more in attempt to find dessert.
ended up spending the money on these cos Johnson really liked the grey dress, (i sound like i'm blaming him for all my purchases but no i thought they were really pretty as well) and they were 170 for one, 300 for two!
I'm justified right?! yes i am =P
i said i'll buy less in america.
i will.
really.



On my only day off, i was stupid enough to walk my little legs off again.
so we planned a day of MJ at home tomorrow waha

Repetitively materialistic days like these make it so hard to live the Christian life and so easy to forget God's grace.

---

I thank God for all the brothers and sisters in Christ He has given me in this life to remind me to look forward to my future eternal home, and that this place, is not my home.
I pray that this believe could be seen in the way I'm living now.
