Meiling's Duck Farm in Tsing Yi

A vase full of Weber Shandwick HK ducks. :)
Thank you my colleagues for giving me such a creative gift!
It took me one whole month to take this shoot.
I planned bringing them to Tsing Yi Park for a professional shooting, but it rained heavily today. :(

Other ducks who do not have tatooes.

芥蘭患上過度活躍症

上一次, 芥蘭已被診斷為嚴重弱智, 同時也有人認為佢有過度活躍症.
>.<但係我唔信...點會兩個咁勁的病會降臨在這般可愛又一臉白痴的小狗身上呢? 今天, Kung Kung & Fanny 都說都未見過咁活躍的狗bb......好肯定芥蘭是患了過度活躍症.

對芥蘭來說, 這兩個空樽是非常可怕的敵人

永遠咬不住的東西真是可怕, 它們還發出恐怖的聲音啊!!

究竟真相是什麼?

今天intern Annie妹妹跟我講, 我的小狗似是波士頓鬥牛犬, 多過似法國老虎狗.
這個想法我也在腦海中閃過, 因為芥蘭的腳特別長, 而頭又唔見得好大.....
有第二個人都是這樣諗, 我想這個finding都好真.
究竟芥蘭是french bulldog 定 boston terrier? 點樣先會知道真相??
我就覺得佢係短片中的兩隻狗的混合體......
(註: 地下的是Boston Terrier, 床上的是French Bulldog)
芥蘭, 我唔係唔鍾意你係boston terrier呀, 我只係唔想改番哂有關妳的post. 要改的話, 好辛苦架......我只須要多一點時間消化這個消息. 我仲記得寵物店的sales拎住本書教我boston terrier條腿長d, 然後就confirm妳係french bulldog了, 妳當時只有二個月, 腿梗係唔長啦.
sales 唔係特別叻, 只係我地見到咁可愛的妳, 連common sense都無哂.

Looking for new music gadget

Sigh!!!
Due to licensing issue, all of my music tracks in playlist.com were unavailable for playback.

芥蘭六個月生日派對- Part 4 靚模影靚相

對衫上面的法國老虎狗全無興趣

芥蘭六個月生日派對 - Part 3 揭枱布

咁無聊的玩意一定係阿爺諗出來的
不過，芥蘭完全唔覺得係一個遊戲
(註：我初時忘記了是拍video, 所以打直了相機拍了好一會兒, stupid me :P)

芥蘭六個月生日派對 - Part 2 四肢發達 頭腦簡單

昨天, 芥蘭被一眾評審委員在5分鐘內已評定為嚴重弱智（因已超過輕度弱智的準則）, 我身為”蘭媽”, 以後的路將會更崎嶇.
請支持我繼續走下去!

以下為非常簡陋的評審過程:

Cheers with Food!

Another great gathering with Sicily Photography Club (HK Branch).

The members in this club have such a big appetite, they keep eating and eating in two hours......

We cheered with our 3rd cup of Creme Brulee, for those who can eat more, they finished 4 cups of Creme Brulee. >.<

Too sad to know that the hotel chefs and cleaning helpers will resign after we have been there! We were all black-listed in the buffet restaurants in Hong Kong. ha ha!

Hina's Exhibition at Fringe Club (Aug 18 - 28, 2009)

Ann, Jason and I attended Hina's photo / drawing exhibition at Fringe Club today. We came with a pot of nice orchids. We bought this from a florist in Quarry Bay, and we were happy with the way she decorated it. Hoping the gift is stylish enough to be placed at Hina's exhibtion. At least, silly tigger is loving it. :)

Thinking, Planning, Thinking, Planning for the Worst

Stay strong, fearless Meiling!

You have to count on your own as always.

Sometimes you forget this totally......then you are reminded again when you thought you were in heaven.

You have to stand on your own shaky feet. They have become too weak after you have been sitting so long.

Someone said, you will be tested in the month of August until December, if you want to leave the situation, it's probably you to make the call.

Stay strong, fearless Meiling!

5th Video Production - Europe 2009

When i have no inspirations, i walk away. Sometimes, inspirations just come in a sudden. And it came at 9am on a Saturday. Finishing my 5th video production today is one of the greatest achivements this month.
The unfinished project has been sitting on my PC's desktop for many many weeks, i am glad that I put a full stop to this project tonight.

我的小狗會反白眼

期待已久的相片今天終於拿到手了, 多謝Hina百忙之中抽空於8月8日為我們拍照.
這是芥蘭第一次坐長途車 (青衣 - 柴灣), 所以一到步就嘔了, 一個字 --- 煩!!
但是, 芥蘭果然是貪玩的小狗, 到了studio之後很快又變得活力充沛 (其實係亂跑...................*_*), 完全忘記了之前唔舒服的事.
今天看過了所有相片, 還是覺得這張好好好笑.
看來芥蘭對自己的主人有一點點唔耐煩加上一點點的不悄....
芥蘭, 妳真係未死過!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

註: 如果看不清楚, 可以點進圖片看, 相片會自動放大啊!

30分鐘內完成的親子丼

喜愛親子丼的原因好簡單, 因為我愛的材料都在這碗飯裡面: 嫩滑的雞肉+半熟的雞蛋+冬菇+洋蔥
今晚第一次煮親子丼, 用了在日式百貨公司買的親子丼的汁料, 在30分鐘內完成, 醫飽了兩個肚! 但係......洗完碗及灶頭之後就已經一身散哂! 好彩今天已經是星期四. :)

好好味的Banana Milkshake

從前看過一篇報導, 說Jennifer Aniston 每朝早會弄banana milkshake給Brad Pitt飲, 就是因為Brad Pitt喜歡. 這篇報導一直都留在我的腦海因為阿倫都十分喜愛milkshake. 最近,他又經常在California Pizza Kitchen 叫milkshake, 所以我終於"的"起心肝去找banana milkshake 的食譜. 其實聽個名就知道易整, 但係都無諗過這麼簡單......

材料:
2隻香蕉
2球Vanilla Ice Cream (慷慨d會好味d.....)
1杯牛奶

很久之前在10蛟店買下的牛奶樽又成為了漂亮的裝飾! ^0^

在發佈文章的一刻, 在gmail 收到了驚喜的回禮:

Cool Car

Today, I read the Apple Daily and the feature story is about dog-friendly car. We have used Ah Lun's father's car, but we found that it has become very smelly after it was frequently ccupied by my dad-in-law's two puppies in the past few years.
The tips shared in the article is to find a thick plastic mat so the dog's smell will not stay in the car. Secondly, we have to turn on the air conditioning before the dogs are onboard, so this will cool down the over-excited dogs.
The article also introduced a new car which is not sold in Hong Kong, Honda Element. I find it very cool, as this is really designed for dogs!!
Take a look at the introduction of car in the below video, and here's the official website: http://automobiles.honda.com/element/
The official video of the car is also great!

日常對話 - toy story 之 鈍toy

mark: 是鈍toy(胎)

UP

Apart from the 3D movie at Disneyland, UP is the first 3D movie we have ever seen in a cinema. Like a small kid, I still enjoy the experience very very much, and it's worth paying extra HK$20 for the ticket. The eye glasses are much more sophisticated than the yellow one distributed at Disney too.

The colourful pictures in UP are very impressive, especially when they become 3D.

We think the film is very romantic too, sometimes, it does not need words to express love, all the little touches speak for themselves.

The scene where the puppies are chasing for the tennis ball has also reminded me that i have got a puppy who is crazy for her tennis ball at home. In conclusion, puppies of all nationalities will lose their mind when they see tennis ball.

Family Photo Shoot on our 10th anniversary (2009.08.08)

Kai Lan threw up on the way to Chai Wan stuido, but she was so well behaved that she took many great pictures on Saturday! Thank you Hina for capturing the best moments of Tse's family.

Special Friday

It's good to see Liz again yesterday! I hope time could fly more quickly, so we can have you back soon.

The first dog Kai Lan meets

Yesterday, it marked another milestone for Kai Lan because she finally met another dog. But this one is really big compared to her size, and this is a Golden Retriever (Name: Mo Mo) stationed at the vet's.

Kai Lan in fact met the golden retriever one month ago, but she was so scared to walk on the floor last time. Now she has become so brave to have a close enounter with Mo Mo.

From my observation, Mo Mo was feeling harassed by this agressive puppy. Kai Lan kept chasing Mo Mo, and Mo Mo found nowhere to hide.

I can tell Kai Lan is a very naughty dog, and she will definitely bully big dogs in the future.

滴汗的毛毛正在逃亡中, 閃避過度熱情又細佢四倍的芥蘭.

芥蘭死纏難打的攻勢嚇得毛毛花容失色

Drawings with my finger

I have become an iphone user since 19 July 2009.
I really enjoy playing with my new toy because some iphone applications really draw Meiling's attention!!!
While i am listening to the songs on my iphone, i could even draw on the screen with the application called "MyPaint". The followings are some of my recent drawings done on the way home.
P.S. it is quite difficult to draw with my finger, but i enjoy this way of killing time. Tonight, i have drawn a very chubby Kai Lan. It looks like a cat instead of a puppy. ha ha!

A happy reminder on a not-very-happy day.

Home Owners Meiling & Mark

Finally, I have paid the deposit for my newly purchased flat at the lawyer's office today. I would say this is the biggest purchase in my life so far.

After signing the contract, we have to spend time going through the offers from the banks, hopefully, we will complete this process very soon.

Congratulations, Meiling & Mark! I can't wait for the home furnishing project set to take place in November 2009.

2月22日生的芥蘭是溫柔的雙魚座??????????

實在令我產生10萬個問號, 以下是我在網上找到的寵物星座性格:

I really enjoy those parts that are highlighted in red!

双鱼座Pisces（02/19-03/20）
性格特点：温和、敏感、羞涩、易满足，适合做孩子的好朋友 (You are a liar!!!!)
如果你拥有一些双鱼座的宠物，你会发现他们的行为举止不很相象。双鱼座的宠物很温柔，他们对噪音比其他动物敏感。
他们也不喜欢和抽烟的人一起生活。
双鱼座的宠物用情很深，害羞，容易满足，很适合和孩子们在一起。如果他们被独自留在家里，会变得不安和伤心。因
此，双鱼座的宠物适合与细心和有足够爱心的人生活在一起。
千万不要揪拉双鱼座宠物的尾巴，他们会生病而死。这是他们本身的一种防卫。他们不生气或表示焦虑，却会很沮丧或生病。双鱼座的宠物也不宜吃得太多。(How does the writer know she has been eating too much???)
如果你想让双鱼座的宠物快乐地独自在家，最好在出门前给他们播放些古典音乐或者是柔和的音乐，爵士音乐也可以，但千万别放重金属音乐给他们听。(I am really glad to know that Kai Lan is a music lover too, but i will try to give her some heavy metal music, she should embrace all kinds of music. wakakakakak!)

破壞王芥蘭

今天又再度證實芥蘭流著的是破壞王的血!

最近, 我們經常讓芥蘭出來跟我們玩, 希望這樣的安排可以消耗她的精力. 可惜, 她依然無變, 繼續佢貪玩的本色!

星期日的大清早, 剛剛餵完芥蘭, 打掃好她的家, 我便在客廳享受一下. 我正要到廚房泡茶之際, 已發現芥蘭在短短的30分鐘內把鋪在籠子下面的報紙全部翻起, 咬碎了整張報紙.

最後還擺出一副"唔知做也事" + "關我乜事"的樣子.

貪玩的代價就是打宏屁鼓啦!

芥蘭一"口"摧毀了自己的安樂窩, 情況就好像打完10號風球一樣. 有無好心人幫佢攪震災籌款活動呀? 正所謂"血濃於水 , 八方支援"

芥蘭, 妳d戲又幾好wor! 有阿媽的遺傳! Good Job!

by the way, 妳未來香港之前, 係唔係於法國修讀"行為藝術"呢?

香港呢度唔興呢d野, 下次再犯, 送妳去青衣差館
