Time to Grow Up

浪子心聲

難分真與假　人面多險詐　幾許有共享榮華　簷畔水滴不分差

無知井裡蛙　徙望添聲價　空得意目光如麻　誰料金屋變敗瓦

命裡有時終須有　命裡無時莫強求

雷聲風雨打　何用多驚怕　心公正白壁無瑕　行善積德最樂也

人比海裡沙　毋用多牽掛　君可見漫天落霞　名利息間似霧化

“命裡有時終須有　命裡無時莫強求”。我認為，有些事，你不知命裡有沒有，所以必須先努力去爭取。如果一番努力後仍因種種因素而不可得，蓋真“無之”時，坦然一笑以對，也是一種風度和器量。

“難分真與假　人面多險詐　幾許有共享榮華　簷畔水滴不分差”。共富貴易，共患難難。真的是不變的道理。前一類的朋友、伴侶隨處可見；後一類的才是可遇不可求。

預知

2012-01-28T02:20:00.002+08:00

如果人能夠預知未來，最痛苦的恐怕就是知道卻不能更改它。

換言之，如果一個人已經能幾乎預料對方的下場，一大悲事蓋在不能替他做什麽。

唉。

我還是執著於此。

不該，不該。

Understanding

2012-01-27T09:18:00.002+08:00

I have eventually understood that...

不是我不想帮你，

是你根本没有下决心帮自己。

唉。我只能苦笑了。

仁至。义尽。

果然，想帮一个人，真的很难。

Life skill 1101E to myself

2012-01-27T02:00:00.002+08:00

Be Kind, Be Forgiving, Be Gracious.

Be Kind to those who deserve your kindness. I believe there are plenty. Way more that those who deserve your forgiveness.

Be Forgiving to those who doesn't deserve the kindness because they did you wrong.

Be Gracious no matter what, because you need to show the manners to those who you are kind to, and also those who did you wrong because at the end of the day, you know you are a cut above them for being able to be forgiving and gracious.

In conclusion to the 3 points above, smile warmly. With genuine thoughts.

生日

2012-01-26T01:59:00.002+08:00

我家人和朋友的祝福，我都收到了。

感謝記住我生日的人。也因為有了你們，我的人生才不一樣。

有一位朋友，知道我今天沒有慶祝生日，本想到學校為我慶生。我婉拒了。雖沒有來，但這份情，我牢牢記在心裡。有心了，有心了。欠的情，恐怕這一輩子我也未必能還。不過，我銘記於心。

今天到廟裡拜拜的巴士上，跟老爸老媽談了。我要他們答應我一件事。

我只能說，我長大了。有些該做的，我就要去做。不該做的，我也不去做了。

有心了，大家。

Beef

2012-01-24T13:17:00.001+08:00

After living for 24 years and 364 days, I ate beef (unknowingly at my relative's buffet) for the very first time.

Hahahaha 真的是命啊！

Angpows

2012-01-23T23:10:00.003+08:00

My personal habit, is to give all the angpows I collected to my parents. Afterall, they are making a loss every year from distributing the red packets. I only keep 2, 1 from my laopa, 1 from my laoma.

So almost every year, I will ask them to write something at the back of the angpow.

今年，

父曰：“事事順意，事如心願。”

母曰：“兒子，願你早日找到好伴侶！”（both of them wrote in 繁體）

Looks like my mum is more worries for me if I can find a good girlfriend. Hahahahaha.

I didn't tell my mum that it is 隨緣, cos I am sure both of us know.

For the past few months, the hand I held most, was my mum's.

When I was very young, she held my hand to teach me how to walk, cross the road, to bring me along...

When I was young, the number of times I held her hand decreases as time goes along...

So as I am approaching a quarter of a century, the time that I held her hand increases again.

I fear that if I don't hold her hands now, in the future when she 百年歸老，I will regret not doing so when I had the chance.

The funny thing is, I don't hold my dad's hand hahahaha.

老爸老媽，新年快樂。兒子不會祝你恭喜發財，不會祝你財源滾滾。我希望你倆能平安健康，事事順心。

If Buddha/Guanyinma/Heaven/God or anyone bestowed me 3 wishes for my golden birthday, I will give you 2 one each. I will make a wish myself.

If I am bestowed a wish, I will make the wish myself.

I won't wish the whole family 長命百歲or富可敵國。人壽天定，無須強求。一個人能吃多少用多少，也幾乎註定。

我希望，闔家一生平安健康，無病無痛，能走能跳，能吃能睡。壽元將盡時能壽終正寢地善終。

老媽啊，如果我有多餘的願望，我再求一個好伴侶吧！哈哈哈哈哈。

The roots of the problem

2012-01-23T00:19:00.002+08:00

I think, I finally more or less see through the roots of the problem.

I can't change them, cos they are beyond my control.
I won't change them, cos they are parts that form the person.

All I can say is, I really hate people 只說不做。
I really hate people who are selfish.
I really hate people who can spend so much energy, time & effort to find excuses and yet so little on actually doing something.

我不想聽任何的藉口，因為我已經聽了很久很久。

work, words

2012-01-20T10:12:00.002+08:00

just finished helping laopa laoma selling fruits.

I realised one thing.

Some friends commented that I am good with words (haha now i sounded BHB).

Then when I listen to my mum's sales pitch, I knew who is the better one. 果然龍生龍，鳳生鳳，老鼠生兒會打洞。（My mum's zodiac is really Rat!）

But she told me b4, those were for business and she won't want to say them if she does not have to.

每年，都不斷體驗父母之辛勞。果真，父母之年，不可不知也。

Chinese Birthday + Blue Black

2012-01-19T22:04:00.002+08:00

Unfortunately, in Chinese Calendar, I am 27 today. -_-"""""""

WAH LAU EH MUST BE KIDDING ME SIA. AM I THAT OLD?!

Laopa Laoma nv fail to call me and wish me happy birthday every year, regardless whether it is the chinese or the english birthday. Regardless how busy they are. But this year, they forgot to remind me to eat mee sua hahaha.

I was planning to eat it for lunch at The Deck. Must add egg somemore. But unfortunately, my birthday mee sua plan was cancelled. No mee sua, no egg in the end :(

I was looking forward to the rubbing of the blue black on my forehead (when I knock my forehead into the corner of my bedside drawer) for few days. Had been complaining for the past few days. Unfortunately, therapy was cancelled too.

What a day. -_-

Gonna ZzzZzz now cos in few hours, its the yearly event to sell fruits again.

Present

2012-01-18T00:53:00.001+08:00

如果可以給我選，

我要的，幾乎全都是用錢也買不到的東西。

這樣才特別珍貴。

令北跟你講

2012-01-16T23:38:00.002+08:00

The heading may seems a bit weird. In fact, it may be offensive for some. But the content isn't.

This happens some times ago. But since I remembered it all of a sudden, I shall note it down.

It was during an outing with climbers. I think the convo was revolving around past mistakes etc.

I think it someone said " Friends don't say 'what if's."

Then I replied "True friends will tell you straight in ur face 'lim pei ga li gong'."

Then we all bursted into laughters.

I didn't tell them last time that I really mean it.

How many friends in life we have, who can look straight into our eyes and point out our mistakes?

I have a handful. And I cherish them all.

I always hope that if I made mistakes in life, there are such friends to remind me what I have done wrongly so that I can steer back on track.

Weakness

2012-01-14T18:16:00.002+08:00

I think at times, my kindness is my weakness,

Hmmmm must learn to change this habit.

Anyway, mum saved a durian for me. She claimed that it is D24. Though both my parents sell fruits, I can neither choose or differiate them. Oops.

dumb + childish resolution #1 of 2012

2012-01-12T00:34:00.004+08:00

When i was much much younger, I watched 賭聖 and all the gambling movies. Hence I always wanted to learn how to spring the cards(refer to pics above).

So my first official (childish) resolution of 2012, to learn springing of cards at least 30cm apart by CNY.

I hope 2012 will be a year when I can clear as much resolutions and dreams that I had previously :)

Anyway, I hope that you are not clubbing now :/

BTW, my dearest neighbour emo-ing, so the below short passage is dedicate to him:

分手之後，時間頓時停留。
從此一切，變得難以回首。
每當想起，與你共處時候。
點點滴滴，紛紛湧上心頭。
光陰飛逝，轉眼春夏秋冬。
默默希望，早日找到出口。
睹物思人，歷史不能倒流。
我的朋友，愿你早日松手。

Mai emo la hahaha.

something I learn today

2012-01-09T01:19:00.002+08:00

I am the type that always save the best (food) for the last.

So this was what I read moments ago:

There are 4 apples, from the nicest, sweetest to the bitter and even sour one.

A & B each has a set of these apples. They both ate an apple a day.

A ate the best apple he had in his possession everyday.

B ate the worst apple he had in his possession everyday.

If I am in this scenario, I will be "B" who saves the best for the last.

But at the end of 4 days, "A" said something very interesting,

"I ate the best apple I had everyday, while you ate the worst apple you had everyday. So who should be happier?"

Interesting isn't it? I will leave the rest for you to ponder.

disneyland

2012-01-08T03:04:00.002+08:00

the hong kong trip was fruitful; not because of the food I ate, the stuff I do or the place I go. But more importantly, its the people I went with and the conversation we had. Though I am the eldest, but I felt that I benefited greatly from talking with them.

We went disneyland on Day 3. 2 years ago, when I knew that I may be able to find a rare charecter figuring or item from disney, I made the resolution to find it if I ever visit disney myself. Unfortunately, after combing the whole of disneyland, the character of that cartoon is so rare that even the special winnie the pooh shop does not have it.

只能說，真的沒有這個緣分吧。

At least I tried my best and answered to my own consciences, even I told no one about it.

Bad habit

2012-01-05T23:13:00.001+08:00

A very very very bad habit of mine.

看不開~ 看不開~

真是壞習慣啊！

A line

2012-01-03T01:35:00.002+08:00

Have you ever wonder,

When a line from some random lyrics repeats in ur head;

you forgot the singer, the composer, the rest of the song and even the title,

and remember nothing but that single line.

With the beauty of the Internet, the search engine makes life so easy! (now I sound as though I am advertising for google or something)

So few weeks back (exact days not known),

a line keep repeating in my head for no reasons.

And I searched for the rest of the song.

It's a great song. To my surprises, its one old song. (My parents' generation)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N72dsXD2GdM

Btw, if you are wondering,

the line that hits the repeat button is

"所以我求求你　別讓我離開你除了你我不能感到一絲絲情意"

2012

2011-12-30T19:10:00.002+08:00

As it approaches 2012 and I am about to hit a quarter of a century,

I wishes for wisdom to understand there are things which are out of my say,

for magnitude to handle things that I cannot control,

for graciousness in my words and actions.

Grow Up

2011-12-30T01:34:00.002+08:00

Note to Self:

Dear CS,

You needa grow up, at least till you are old enough to tell you what is good for you and what is not. You may want certain things, but if you know that it will hurt you in the end, you should know what you needa do.

With Warmest Regards,

Me
