Cowards.......

I hate those cowards who try to threaten the lives of Mr Tusi, who campaigns for the protection of Victoria Harbour against further reclamation, and his family. I strongly condemn those people who have make such threats, and strongly support the association for the protection of the Victoria Harbour........

Cowards, NO COWARDS SHOULD EVER BE TOLERATED.......

Mac entry II

The sale of my old Mac should be finalized in a day or two, as there are already people offering an acceptable price for my Power Mac, and the buyer seems to be either working for publishing industry or designing industry. Anyway, it doesn't really matter for me because it's only my Mac that would be leading a much harder life than at home, because normally this Mac would only work for up to 6 hours per day, and no harsh tasks are involved at all. But with the new life, I can foresee on before on the old Mac, that it would be very likely for it to be working at least some 10 hours per day, maybe on some publishing and design related works, that would lead a really hard life for it. But, I don't care.....

And a breaking news, that I have finalised a deal with a guy who is selling me his PowerBook. Though an even older version than the one I currently own, but I find the price a very suitable one, and got almost everything I want included. I would probably need some more money to strengthen networking at home by adding a wireless network at home, so that nothing like a computer desk would exist any longer. You can check www.apple-history.com, click on the link for PowerBook G4(DVI), and you can know a little bit about the spec of my "new" PowerBook......

That's really great.

And the even better thing of the night is the dinner at Leung Hing in Sheung Wan. This shop serves Chiu Chow style food, and my sister and I ordered a soup with pig stomach, pepper and prickled vegetable. The taste is just excellent, because the taste of every ingredient comes up naturally, and none of them would be too strong to cover the taste of others...Achieveing such a great balance, and the soup itself is really nice for people eating out, wanting something to be not too strongly flavoured. Other dishes like oyster "pizza", frying cucumber with prickled and dried fish as well as assorted soy-sauce prickled food are just excellent as well. They are all so tasty, maybe a little bit oily, but the taste is just too attractive to miss. Forgot to mention about the dessert, green beans without its shell together with some jelly-like thing. Can you imagine what a dessert that is not too sweety like. I don't mean being sweetie is bad, but the flavour is just right, and you can taste that they have added nothing else except the ingredients and water......I just fall in love with their food after I tried them, and the tea served is just too great. I think my family must find some time to go together, as we all love eating good food, and my father loves Chiu Chow style food too much.....

What a great joy for that.....

MAC entry

Time for G4 desktop at my home is counting down. I am determined to get a PowerBook (doesn't mind whether it is a new or second hand one) to replace the desktop, so as to free up more space for the living room of my small home. The dekstop is quite likely to go away, but I am not really sure about whether I can get the replacement, because there are quite a few persons making offers for my Mac, while my offers for PowerBook are not yet replied.......God, I don't want to see a period of time which I would have one Mac, which might be too dangerous for me, especially needing to work with publication stuff.

My "mother" would be very likely to get an iBook as her laptop. She told me that she wanted to get a notebook, and I just mentioned Mac as a choice, yet she thought it was a bit too expensive, and she went on to check out the prices of PC notebooks. But it was yesterday that I told her about the education offer, which the prices are really nice for a notebook with 40G HDD and a Combo Drive....only at $8670... How would one miss such offer ne.......

Success in converting one more PC user to Mac....
but price is a rare reason for converting..........:P

7.10.03

Just today itself is already interesting enough to write lots of things....

Supposed to have a tutorial (that there's no way to miss one) at 1040 in the morning, alarm also rang at 0745, which I wish to allow me time for miscellaneous things, like getting on the net and to get the ready laundry prepared for drying, shower, etc. But today is so nice to allow me to dream on quite a few things, some are about myself, and some are about private tuitions, some even go on to.......hehe. All these dreams are really nice, but everything becomes a disaster when I recognise the time that I wake up, it's 1006 already.....

Shit, I don't mind not packing my Mac with me, I don't mind having no time to go online, but how can I survive without having a shower, and to get changed? I brieflt just got the time to get changed and brushed my teeth, not a shower, and not to mention trying to get my hair gel-ed. Anyway, that ain't much disaster. The real disaster was that I found some of my hairs were not in their normal shape, stayed up a little bit.......but having no time, there is no way to make them good-looking enough again...

I think it's probably because curtain guards the sunlight away too well, allowing me to sleep so comfortably and not to be interfered by sunshine....(seems more like finding an excuse for something bad happened). I have already got it up, so that sunshine would be on my face tomorrow, and see if it would force me to wake up earlier tomorrow. I can't afford to wake up late again, coz there's another tutorial at 1040 tomorrow.....><

Tomorrow gonna "die another day" if I don't try to finish the readings now.....and the assignments as well.....NOOOOOO.......you cannot treat me like this......That's not fair (by the way, who is to decide what is fair?.......)

Jesus......

This time I am not swearing, but really praying for something. I confess that I have below-par performance on academic part through laziness over the last year, and I guess there is no better remedy than working hard now. I know what I need to do well, just that there seems to be no way for me to start. I think I acknowledge the problem well enough, but it seems that i have already embraced the problem, instead of trying to find a solution to the problem. Is it that I should do something to change my attitude, or simply to change my lifestyle, and to make it a more workable one? And how....

I pray that things be bad if they should, so as to let me know the severity of the problem, as this is equitable to me, without "clean hands". I pray that things would be better if Lord God can guide me through the way, or at least pointing some ways to me which I would be able to work along. I am not so concerned with the end result, as long as I have tried my best to prove, this would already be more than satisfactory to me.

Got a very funny chat with a friend, and it is only at this moment that I realise how mismatching our working places are. She works for a tutorial centre at Tsz Wan Shan, which is in fact just 10 minutes walk from my home, yet she would have to travel a long distance before she can get there, while I have a student who lived in Shum Cheng, which is quite far away for me, again only some 15 minutes ride on minibus for her....Such mismatch isn't that bad after all, we can benefit from each other in many ways ge....(though I look to have chances to gain more from her....haha~~) I just feel very happy after the chat on the phone, quite rare in two sense, one for chatting on the phone, and the other is the feeling.....

oh well, gotta face the cruel reality (as imposed by myself)......loads of things for tomorrow, and the day after....
SOLVE them well or you'll die.....
