Screw iPhone4, say iPod Touch to me baby~! The newly announced Ipod series is indeed a good thing, and it was worthwhile for me to wait, I’m so glad I didn’t pumping my sperm into my head and bought it 2 months ago. And now with the new iPod Shuffle with introducing buttons back, and the new iPod Touch with hi-def and a video camera, it seems everything is in place. It is totally the iPhone without the phone that I asked for.

Now I’m waiting for someone to go buy for me….hehe, finger crossing it’ll be soon~

Well, don’t even get me started on this one. I cannot deny any longer, than I’m turning into someone I desire for as sometimes I look up and think a skin head guy or even baldy is kind of sexy. But now I am frustrated that my hair loss problem is getting heavier and my hair is getting thinner and thinner and it actually shows now, people notice it and not once I got comments from different hair dressers. (f*ck!)

I try to buy those shampoo with enhancing scalp base and preventing hair loss conditional, but it doesn’t really work, everyday when I wash my hair, tens of threads of hair would stay on my palm and by washing them off, I feel myself like a cancer patient or something. It is depressing and I don’t know if this is a medical condition or age just get to me. I mean I want to age gracefully without making too much alterations, but having such symptoms at the age of 30 seems not a good idea to me. By now I seriously thinking of stepping into Yunnan haircare and enquire an advice, sigh…

It is now dawn to me that I could no longer suck my tummy in while walking on the street or working in the office or chatting with people pretending that I am not that, well, er… chubby (fat). For the past few weeks I have been struggling not wanting to try on my jeans because I knew I couldn’t fit in, especially I bought those skinny type. For weeks I have been skipping gym and any type of exercise because I always feel tired and lazy. I do not know if I have the pre-symtoms of diabetes, but it seems inevitable  to me that I really should do something about it.

One thing to be clear, I am still far from being obese, and frankly I don’t eat that much really (of course to you this is a big doubt), but the days I was in Penang for the long 6 weeks really contributed to a lot of great oily fat food of Penang. And it seems the excessive of protein or carbohydrate have built up over my belly area and don’t seems want to go away in any mentally force.

But I will look into this now, I want to look good and healthy, so I will have to do something, either drastic or mild, I will have to do it.

Two different cups of coffee, two different taste, same company, different shop, different time, pretty much the same mood.

The one on the left is Rwanda bean, pure brew, the barista has to roll it 3 times and let me smell the bean on each time, while explaining to me what I would expect and why would that be. Then she used a special boiling system to such hot water up and infiltrate the crushed coffee to make me this tiny cup of espresso like drink in a looked expensive English china tea cup. The whole process is so exquisite I could hardly take a deep breathe. And did I mention it cost f*king RMB45?

The one of the right is Frapucino, I don’t really know it’s actually coffee with crushed ice, but the taste is refreshing, especially on a warm Sunday afternoon, watching a B class movie and be lazy. I love coffee, that’s all I can say, maybe I’m addicted but what the hell, it’s not drug yet~ and oh, this one cost RMB60 (with inclusion of another cup and a mojito….)

I would have left Xiamen too. Staying in the city with an encore but lesser charm is not a good feeling, let alone to know things have changed and you are bound to be alone eventually. But still, once in a while, when I was outside and seeing such a scene, you just simply can’t help to put the encouragement back on ya, knowing things are not as bad as it seems.

Xiamen, in many points, has its ugly side, but she is so pretty when you know where to look. I enjoy drinking coffee even though it is so expensive in here. I love walking on a park, they are so neatly trimmed and well  maintained, I do grocery shopping in the morning just to off set the crowd, and I stay in my little room of studio and be in my own world that is so relaxing (and I don’t care what Jeremy said about florescent light, and tiny space) It is a city I would like to stay longer if it wasn’t the OE threat….. But well, life goes on, we just don’t know what next day will be, so live, and live life!

Just recent days I experienced people leaves, left for good, left forever and leaving. It feels so insecure to be true, but that’s the way of life, isn’t it? You may ask who, but it really doesn’t matter, because to the fact is, you have people leaving, left or gone around you, you just didn’t notice much I guess, or am I just just being too sentimental about it?

So which one is more hurtful? the one that leaves and keeps a distance from you, or the one that actually leaving for good and hardly meet up, or the one that gone and you will never get a chance to meet again? It is a huge dilemma, but I choose the first one, it’s the cruelest thing to leave someone with an intention. For the latter two they are very much external force manipulation, we just can’t blame, that’s the way life goes eh.

I forgot which movie was it, but it starred Takeshi, in the movie he took a picture of the sky everyday, to remind a lover of something, can’t recall. But ever since I started to notice the sky whenever I could, watching the clouds forming shapes, watching a bird or a plane flew by, or watching the sun or the moon goes. It was a exhilarating experience to imagine with the sky, and to think I’m under it.

I think it is one of greatest nature that we took for granted but often less noticeable, but I look at the sky every morning, every time I walk out, I love the blue and I love the gray, and I love the white clouds. It was only when a hazy day blur mind view and I got distracted. But the sky is so big, it literally warps me up and I feel great being in. It’s great to have a sky, it’s greater to have a clear blue sky~

This is my favourite restaurant in Xiamen, I go almost 3 - 4 times a week for dinner and sometimes lunch on weekend. The price was a little higher since I last visited 4 years ago, but still bearable. But last week, it got another rise and each of the noodle has now increased RMB2. Pretty pricey now to think of it, but I have no other choice as I am out of food to eat. So damn restaurant, and damn me~~

Did I mention I have finished Deception Point like in 2 days? It’s incredibly additive for all Dan Brown’s work that I have read, and this one is no exception. I can hardly put it down. And the story is pretty interesting, except it doesn’t have the history to support like Da Vinci’s Code and Angels & Demons and Lost Symbol. But still I like the book pretty good.

I bought the last batch of books last September or early October, and now I’ve bought another 8 books, while I have 2 more have yet to read, one World is Flat and History of Philosophy, both considering boring by the name and genre, but I just like to pretend to be intelligent.

The 8 new books I got, guess how much? it’s only RMB52 including postage!! I cannot imagine how badly bitten was the publishers, but this is China, get used to it ya~ hehe  I haven’t decide which to read first since I have a few on hand, but they all sounds very yummy to me~

Re Org = OE.

OE = Operation Efficiency

In another word, I am in progress of getting fired.

Hallelujah~ please find me a job in Taiwan, or better still, Japan? (eyebrow raised)

hehe, wicked thinking wishful thinking~
