15/16

A famous Hong Kong games show 15/16 inspired me for the topic for this post.
15/16 be a choice of true/false, good/bad, right/bad answer...so on.

As a choice go along, here my two couples friends of mine had choosed Dec 15/16 for their big day and annoucing to world of their marriage. I'm grateful for given a choice to attend wedding receptions at two 'nice' hotel ballroom.

I wish them a graceful life in the journey of marriage and "produce" more and more kids. Believe in you & your partner and believe in your ownself , that assure rainbow will be at your side.

Who's Adidas ?

(click to enlarge the photo)
Something funny , something ridiculus. If you observed the picture up close to the trafic light bar, there's a look-alike Adidas sport shoe (with red stripe) was taking a nap up there. You may have started to ask who's Adidas shoe? Who is so "mou-leau" or "fai"? Is someone thrown the shoe there or someone repair the trafic light and forgotten the shoe? Hey, friend...no gift for correct answer as I'm not interested to know. Too many thing for us to worry about other than these "mou-leau" fellow.
You may thought that, I also quite "mou-leau" as to take this photo. My intention is hope you could be amused for a moment and smile if you happen to be sad at this time :)

Busy ~ Confused

I'm busy.

Busy attending farewell parties.

The friendship earn had been crafted in memory.

The laughter in office just gone as it should be.

I'm busy receive farewell messages continuously.

Email & phone for keep in touch easily.

Sometimes, we work for company not just for money.

So, hey! Don't take this seriously as we all are friendly.

I'm confused.

Confused on how the decision being abused.

Put your heart in the redeployment queue.

So, you will know how the people heart being fused.

I'm confused.

It took so long, but people not see the value.

Is this is the only way to rescue or people refuse?

Trust and respect had also been skewed.

**special note**

15-Nov-2007 was the day.

Return laptop at PC bay.

For those who stay, keep working to earn more friendship and pay.

For those who leave, Good luck and we shall meet again someday.

What made a different Annual dinner this year

Here came over the "another" annual dinner. Along with S.E.T effect, 80% of foreseeable event mate weren't shown up in that night. I understand their feeling. There always reason why people won't come and always reason for those who turned up. Nevertheless, there also around 70% of attendees well addressed up and still made the show not less interesting.

Now, question...what made this event different? Here the some statistical observation :
1) Orange-White-Black round collar combination from the 3 unique smart gentleman.
2) Impressive and respective song composer, music arranger, graphic designer/editor of the contestant (actually the winner).
3) Good presentation of management team despite of their BUSY schedule and still made a such creative and brought a postive message to the society from the video clip with the theme of LOVE.
4) ITV backdrop for photo shot.
5) On the spot photo printing as "Door gift" - although many people not knowing that.
6) Less fun with less friends around.
7) Be a Bond Man together with my buddy, "bodyguarding" a Bond girl.
8) 30% of table empty after the last prize of lucky door. In fact, only 11 lucky draw prizes were given away.
9) 70% of attendees are in BLACK.
10) ...can't think of any

Thanks to organizing committee...!

Take your time

People always say "take your time" when there is no urgent expectation to complete certain task. The phrase always come from someone to you or you to someone.
I wish I can say that to myself that day...as when thing is not urgent but why rush!

At the night of Oct-18-2007, there was rain out there. I decided not to take umbrella to pick up my car from not far distance although being advised by my mother better to take umbrella and don't run as she witness before someone just fell down by doing the same. I thought I've being very skillful all the while and forgotten all the advice and being self-conceit to just run toward the car. I quickly opened up the door and try to go into the car. In just a split second, my forehead just hit right to the edge of the door where the door was never opened up with enough space for me to safely go into the car. Of course, the cut of the forehead started to bleed. Nevertheless, I still drive the car toward the shelter area to pick up my family that awaiting there then only I started to use tissue(>10 sheet) to try to stop the bleeding.

I used to always tell my little daughter not to run/rush as my mother always do. But, thing will always happen in split second when you never have consciously thought on consequences. Although, this has been just a small incident but I experienced that with a thoughtful lesson. And start to remind myself to "take your time" at anytime, anywhere.

Coincidently, A friend of my also hit to a sliding glass in a shopping mall and got a sounds smilar injured on forehead (eyebrow area) exactly a week before of my incident. The root cause was unknown but he just joking said that "A demon called me towards the door & I was mesmerize".

Make no fear to an unintentional mistake, as long we learn something out of it.
