第一誡

During lunch, Iris told us about a friend's friend planning to move to Egypt to marry a guy she met online (but never in person).

And this is supported by another couple who also met on msn, she moved to Canada for the guy and they lived happily ever after.

I started giggling. Because 1st thing that came to mind is -
"He's Just Not That into You"! LOL



Remember - all those stories you hear are exceptions.
We are the rule. =)

和音歌唱訓練班深造班

Half of the time, I can't tell whether we are really 和音 or 走音. But since we all paid our tuition, we shall suffer together! LOL

We did:

苦情人 - 鄧穎芝
如無意外 - 何韻詩
The Sound of Silence - Simon and Garfunkel
Perhaps Love - John Denver & Placido Domingo

Michelle was hoping the instructor would pick more updated english songs cuz they probably won't have that in karaoke...

I guess we'll have to practice in the showers more.

S.H.E. Concert @ Venetian

Jessic got free tickets for S.H.E.!

I was pretty excited because the last time I was in Macau, Fisherman's Wharf was still under construction.



From the pics, you can tell we are not sitting that close to the stage. But if we were to paid for it, it would cost $600! And the arena was pretty full too!

This tells you how many fans S.H.E. has.



They totally deserve the popularity though. I love this band!



And they will alway remind me of my days in Charlotte. Wei, my best buddy used to play their music non-stop in his car. Only he needs to stop trying to sing like them. LOL



Picked up a Father's Day gift, saw S.H.E. and had Fatburger.
I"m a happy woman. =)

Speedy Scandal (極速緋聞)

I don't think I've ever been to a movie in HK where the audience was LOL-ing together the entire time. The guy next to me was cracking up so badly that he choked on popcorn. LOL

Anyway, the point is you guys have to go watch this movie .



Look at this 死leng仔. Don't you just want to pinch his cheeks?



Iris said after watching it, she's very tempted to have a kid of her own!

Is this true or urban myth?

Had lunch with Michelle Leung and Esther today at Yung Kee.

Michelle told us duck eggs supposedly makes you dumber because it contains lead. So I started googling and found something even more disturbing.

T-shirts

On an incredibly gloomy monday afternoon while I was asking everyone about their t-shirt size for Karina's bday...Eric decides to be a smart (_)(_)

E: Using you as guideline, can I get a small as well?
S: ERIC CHAN!!!!
E: Hey there's no XS for me to pick!!
E: So I should be the one being upset.

S: Oh wait hold on, I was referring to the top, not bottom. =P
E: Funny. In that case it better be able to stretch at least 5x bigger.
S: I'm not sure if yours can stretch....LOL

Bringing Width and Depth to my Life

Attended the 2nd training session for the East Asia Games.



One of the guest speakers today shared his previous volunteering work at the BJ Olympics. He was quoting alot of inspirations but this one hit me.

"You can't do anything about the length of your life, but you can do something about its width and depth." Shira Tehrani

Logically, I know. We all know. Living life to the fullest, right? But 90% of the time it's about getting our hearts to agree.

We all want that next career move.
Finding the right person.
Going on vacation.
Trying something new.
The next breakthrough.
We just want to be happy.

And if it doesn't happen? Please try again. =)

"How to Pronounce...."

Stanley and Iris came over to hang out. In between the horror movies, Stanley wanted to find out how to say Charlize Theron.

And discovered this cool site: http://inogolo.com/

Afterwards, we started typing in all the brand names we can possibly think of but can't pronounce! haha

Our favorite was Peugeot.

Stand By Me

I've been so unmotivated at work recently. It's such a strange feeling...

After work, Michelle took me shopping and Stan called on my way home. They were so busy cracking me up, I forgot to tell them how stressed I was. Gosh, it's great to have friends! keke

Retards - whether you realize it or not,
thanks for standing by me! =)

Po Toi Island (蒲苔島)

The island is famous for its rock formations, such as the Buddha Hand rock, Coffin rock, the Turtle rock as well as the deserted Mansion of Family Mo, (巫氏廢宅) (supposedly haunted).








It is said that the island used to produce dried seaweeds (苔), which were shaped like the cattail hassock (蒲團) used by the monks for sitting; therefore the island is called 蒲苔島.






But as you can see, we got too carried away posing for the camera. So you guys will have to google for more info! haha




P.S. I was very happy to meet another pocari fan! =)
