Currently listening to: 決戰二世祖 by 側田

I have 2 cuts on my right index finger, 1 cut on my right ring finger, 2 cuts on the back of my right hand, and 1 cut on my left thumb.

This week, I work for 7 days; 2 normal shifts, 3 not-so-normal shifts, and 2 extra shifts.

I caught the manga bug a few days ago, and have, by now, updated myself with a whole lot of manga.

I have the urge to shop, but there is nothing for me to buy.

As a reward for working so hard this week, I am allowing myself to eat out tonight.

I am now thinking if I should be dressed to hit the pubs for dinner, because I don't want to go to dinner, go home to get changed, and then go out to the pubs.

Crackers

Currently listening to: 愛在 by 方大同

I cut myself again on the right index finger. Two more times.

And I'm working the "swing shift" for the next 3 days. I start at 2pm, and finish at 10pm. This is due to a system ugrading at work which did not go as smoothly as hoped, and so we're in a major backlog crisis.

Despite the late finishing time, I am quite looking forward to it actually, because it meant that I do not have to face queries, either by email or phone. And I get to stuff both my ears with earphones (one of which I accidentally dunked into my bowl of soup the other day) instead of just one, because I have to take into account the possibilities of the phone ringing or my colleagues calling me, and I can't hear anything with both my ears stuffed with earphones.

Fingers

Today must have been Cut-My-Right-Hand-Fingers-Day. I cut my right ring finger handling a pail while washing my car, and cut my right index finger opening my room door.

Just the other day I noticed that I had 2 cuts on my left index finger. One day some time ago, it must have been Cut-My-Left-Hand-Fingers-Day.

Jury summons

Currently listening to: 愛在 by 方大同

What do you tell a friend (a young hot-blooded male) who got into a fight because his friend (presumably female) complained to him about someone dancing too close to her liking, he asked the someone to "fuck off", the someone pushed him, and he pushed the someone back?

Do you tell him that he was wrong to get into a fight, regardless of the reason? Do you tell him that he should have asked the someone to go away in a more polite manner? Do you tell him that he should have just taken the friend and moved themselves away from the someone?

If I was any closer to him (in terms of relationship), I would have reprimanded him about it in an instant. Fighting is bad. Regardless of the reason. Is what I think anyway.

Health insurance

A tree-felling company called themselves "Falling For You". Haha.

世上最難斷的是感情，最難求的是愛情，最難得的是友情，最難分的是親情，最難找的是真情，最難受的是無情，最難忘的是你開心的表情。

Why do bad things always come, even if not all at once, within a short time of each other? I have hardly recovered from the previous traumatizing incident, and here I am now, trying to cope with yet another equally, if not more, traumatizing incident.

I know that it is not entirely my fault, but I cannot help but feel that it IS entirely my fault. And the feeling sucks. Bad. Sucks!

Good night!

I liked The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button so much, I watched it twice. Although, the second time, I skipped some parts of the movie which did not have Cate Blanchett's character in it.

Cate Blanchett is GORGEOUS. I do not remember if I have declared this before; if I haven't, I am declaring it now.

I LOVE Cate Blanchett. She is officially my FAVOURITE actress EVER.

Wedding bells

Currently listening to: Amazed by Lonestar

I may have had a bad Friday, but Saturday had been a good one. I had had to work, but that's alright because I could use the extra money. And it was only for a few hours, so I had the rest of the afternoon off to enjoy the great weather. I even met up with a friend-cum-ex-colleague, and made new friends in the process.

It's funny how I always, always wonder if I'd ever end up all alone in Dunedin, what with everyone leaving for greener pastures and all, but I always, always end up meeting new people at the most unexpected times. Which is good because I don't really want to end up alone in Dunedin.

On another matter altogether, a friend just got engaged! And I am so excited!

Oh, and I like looking at girl's legs.

Wages

Currently listening to: 在你身邊 by 張學友

It was a bad start to the day. I didn't expect it to be a very good start, but I didn't expect it to be so bad either. And even though I eventually managed to turn it back around, the damage had already been done. For the rest of the day, I felt exhausted, both physically and mentally. I couldn't leave work early because I was on the roster for phone duty, and I couldn't go home straightaway after work either because I had to go shopping for a birthday present. Not to mention that I am beginning to show symptoms of falling sick, what with the breakouts on my face despite having enough sleep every night, and a not-feeling-very-good throat. And on top of all that, I cannot afford to cheer myself up with something materialistic because I'm poor.

It has been a bad day, and it's not even Friday the 13th yet.

Below are some of Cecilia Cheung's revelation of the support that her family had given her throughout the sex picture scandals:

Patrick Tse, Father-In-Law
On the very first day of the scandal, he came over to my house, using the pretext of visiting Lucas. He didn't say anything, but I already know what was going on. He was trying to give me the message, "It's alright. Whatever happens, we will face it together as a family."

Deborah Lai, Mother-In-Law
She gave me a gift, a porcelain figure in the shape of two people holding up a lotus leaf together over their heads, with the words 风雨同路 carved upon it. It was a simple porcelain figure, but I already know what she was trying to tell me.

Nicholas Tse, Husband
He didn't ask me anything at all. He just said to me, "It's alright 老婆. Don't worry. I am here."

If you understand Cantonese and would like to watch the interview yourself, I'm sorry, but I can no longer help you, as the video has been removed from YouTube.

Who's the idiot now?

So, I was watching this random episode of Star Trek, where the ship's crew were stranded in 20th century San Francisco. They, being from I-don't-kn0w-where, were of course like lost sheep in the city, and out of amusement, I proceeded to call them "stupid idiots".

I then turned off the television, went to the fridge, opened a bottle of soymilk, threw the bottlecap into the bin, and poured some soymilk into my cup.

It's karma I tell you. Pure karma.
