造句練習

由於芥蘭的皮膚再度出現問題,我寫道「芥蘭要去看醫生」。經過相量後,阿倫認為小狗食抗生素很痛苦,於是我們决定先用上次的萬試萬靈的藥膏試幾天。
第二天回家,發現了句子被人擅自改動過,我仲被人擺上枱。當事人當然例牌唔認,仲要話係小狗叫佢寫。

扣肉Cake

I got another surprise after a dinner with my ex-colleague. Ah Lun has made a cake out from the ready made cakes this afternoon. :)
He made a fresh kiwi sauce as the fillings between the cake layers. He also coated some cakes with chocolate. When he presented the cake, I thought he is bringing out a 扣肉飯. Though it's not really good looking, but the cake is very tasty. This has reconfirmed his cooking talent.
Of course, the surprise enhances the taste.

Oops, he confirmed this is my birthday in Chinese calendar. Well, I did not argue with him because there's no way I could win in this bday game.

好文章

你像「小學雞」他爸嗎? - 李純恩

據說因為網上播出了「小學雞」的混帳片段,今年書展裏,教父母如何教孩子的書特別好賣。許多為人父母者,都怕孩子不學好,於是看書取經,希望教出好兒女。
其實教兒女要看書取經,或是聽「專家」講座,這樣的父母本身已經有問題了。
你看那「小學雞」,你以為問題在他身上?問題根本就是出在他父母的身上。
「子不教,父之過。」三字經都說了。孩子是什麼德性,父母應該最清楚。孩子出了毛病,父母也應該最清楚原因。老實說,父母像樣,子女像樣。子女不像樣,你去看他們的父母,多數德性也差。
想要把孩子教好,自己先要似個人樣。這是看書看不回來的,如果你自己都不知怎麼做人,還如何去教孩子?在這件事上,只有不是的父母,沒有不是的孩子。
教兒子,貴在溝通,溝通的訣竅只有兩個字:用心。溝通不了,就是不夠用心,不用心去了解孩子的想法和習性,便無法教孩子。反之,孩子總會聽教。
這也是「盡信書不如無書」的事情。怕孩子變成「小學雞」,那你先照照鏡子,看看自己像不像那個「小學雞」的爸爸。先看看自己有沒有得救,才可知孩子有沒有得救。

滅蚤大行動

Oh My God!
芥蘭於廚房內比蚤咬,阿倫下午回家進行滅蚤大行動。
所有的廚房用品都拿出來,數量真的驚人。
芥蘭置身事外
不要打擾我瞓覺就好了。
沒有人陪我玩的時間過得太慢
悶得要轉一轉圓圓的身子,保持血液循環,身體健康最緊要!
嘗試接近忙著收拾的主人
Well, 我也有正經的一面。
Eeyore也來搗亂,我最愛亂七八糟!

Team Gathering at Fofo by El Willy

FOFO by el willy is one of the best Spanish restaurants in Hong Kong.
I am glad that Liz picked this place for our team gathering.
It is a Wednesday night, but the place was packed.

Not only the food is great, the decoration is nicely done. Love all the bright white ceramics animals - penguins, pigs, elephants, owls, etc.
Cheers everyone! let's celebrate the good achievements in the first half of 2011.

All the lovely food has reminded me of our pleasant journey in Barcelona in 2009. I just found out that the tomato garlic bread here is as good as the ones back in Spain. Pink Sangria is also a great choice. What else, of course the Iberian Ham!!!

Service is OK, but not the type which wows you...

Very cool filming project!!

日月潭向山行政中心

雖然香港小組很醜,但我要多謝妳地帶我去日月潭及得知有一個令人嘩然的建築!
我們去了台灣很多次,但還未到過日月潭。上次太rush了,沒有由台中過去,現在覺得有點可惜。不過,台灣實在太近了,我們希望下年可以來到這般漂亮的景點。

潭還是其次,這個由日本建築師團紀彥建造出來的藝術品最得我歡心。我真的很喜歡他設計的向山行政中心,太太太美了。

阿媽都唔知的秘密

7月11日
阿倫:我今日行了成日街都買唔到生日禮物給你,慶祝你聽日生日。
Meiling: 我聽日生日嗎? 我唔知wor!
阿倫:我無理由會記錯,你信我啦!
Meiling: 是嗎? 咁好,我今年有兩日生日,7月12日加29日。
阿倫:你痴線啦。我再講多一次,你---聽---日---生---日。
Meiling: 是的。我唔講了,我要快快通知我阿媽。佢應該都唔知呀!

7月12日
Meiling: 喂,我今日生日wor?有什麼慶祝活動呢?
阿倫:er………………我地去食飯啦。

飯後我們經過美心餅店。
Meiling: 我地要唔要買生日蛋糕呀?
阿倫:er………………
Meiling: 其實我真的好飽,今次你慳番啦!
阿倫:er………………
於是我們去坐小巴。

回家後,我馬上去落妝。


正當我由肥仔變木村的時候,有人在洗手盤後面送上了美心的生日蛋糕!原來,他下午的時候已經落街買左!我竟然沒有發現剛才佢支吾以對!

多謝你的安排,在沒有準備之下收到的surprise就是最surprising!
由於蠟燭太勁,芥蘭被困在廚房,但她不停jump,太搞笑了!

Count On Me

今天上班的途中,我如常地看都市日市。很快被這標題吸引,因為黃志淙正要談我喜愛的歌Count On Me by Bruno Mars。星期五晚,我就是剛剛買了這cd。我多數也會試聽的,就是播到第7首Count On Me的時候,我就知道要買了。
阿倫說他有夏威夷的背景,我真的超愛,因為我的lilo公仔都是"I, I, I WAS BORN IN HAWAII." (請以黎明腔唱出)。


黃志淙 都市博客 1、2、3 Count On Me

等放榜的心情……我們都是這樣長大的。
暑假對升大學、中學及小學的學生和家長,都是複雜心情交纏的季節。新聞片段呈現的悲喜交集、得與失的對比,
都只是眾多個案中的一鱗半爪。
搵工的畢業生、轉工的年輕人,患得患失的心情,同樣是夏天候群症。自己的一些大學畢業學生,都在人生交叉點徘徊和尋找。能夠順利繼續升學深造或被取錄上工的,她/她們的雀躍都非語言能形容。
正當社會對「八十後」都充滿標籤化和誤解化的觀點時,其實,很多主人翁都想用決心和行動來證實自己,「我唔Hea!」「我有目標!」「我有實力!」認識很多音樂界、文化藝術界、創意界及媒界的朋友,都不一定從所謂傳統式學院畢業而能夠闖出一番事業來。學習的重點,其實是包括自我認知、思考訓練及紀律操練。愈早認清自己的興趣和能力,愈早爭取社會經驗,便擁有更多機會。
又以近日一首極勵志及窩心的歌曲 「Count On Me」為例,主唱及創作的Bruno Mars是夏威夷「八十後」音樂人。在他揚名國際及勇奪格林美獎之前,他在中學時期便曾因毒品問題而入獄,學業當然大受影響。不過,憑着堅毅與鬥志,熱愛音樂的他在音樂痛下苦功。雖然曾被名門Motown簽過,但發展並未如意,於是,改投另一家公司,重整旗鼓,去年的大碟「Doowops & Hooligans」終於守得雲開。
唱片內的歌曲水準極高,多首細碟風格擁有多面化的吸引力:R&B、Soul、Rock、Reggae、Pop等,充分表現他受MJ、Bob Marley及夏威夷文化等共冶一爐的氣味和色彩。擅玩多種樂器的他,舞台上滿載能量。
上星期家中有夏威夷來港度假的姪女到訪,她是Bruno Mars就讀的Roosevelt High School的師妹,剛剛畢業的Adrianne在準備升讀University of Hawaii之前的暑天,在香港探親之餘,亦被我邀上電台分享「九十後」年輕人的音樂世界。原來,在夏威夷和美國的亞洲青少年都一樣很受J Pop和K Pop的影響,但,英文流行曲亦極通行,尤其是電台熱播的。看來,就算愛數碼媒體2.0的新生代,傳統1.0媒體仍然存在一定的影響力。
當然,我們也大談Bruno Mars。這位local hero(本土英雄)的歌曲響遍檀香山之餘,不少中學畢業生都用上他的流行曲來作畢業歌,其中「Count On Me」是極之熱門的選擇,因為音樂部分由簡單動人的Ukulele(夏威夷小結他)引領,歌詞直接而動心,講分享、互相信任和倚靠,友誼、愛情、親情 ……總之您有我在旁。
「就算您在大海迷途,我會到天涯海角找您。」
「假如您深宵不能睡,我會陪伴牀邊唱您一首安眠曲。」
「倘若您難過淚垂,我會讓您哭在我的肩頭上。」
「1、2、3,3、2、1……」
快樂可以很簡單,人生可以很美麗。
2011年的夏日,讓我們擁抱慰藉心靈的好音樂,讓正能量改變世界。

提腿芥蘭

長洲一日遊

由於天氣太熱的關係,我們每人都吃了兩串冰什果。
冰什果比我們中學時吃的冰菠蘿還好吃!
這讓我又想起我們四位在日本穿起和服吃冰柑橘的時候。我們實在過了很多快樂的時光。

回程的第二串。我們最愛冰提子。

可惟及逸逸的動物造型...一只是雞一只是鴨
似乎父母都很開通,仲笑得很開心!
長洲的沙灘比較少人,非常舒適,只是沙粒粗了點。

仆倒妹 & 仆倒貓

They are both very funny! Thanks Ah Lun for sharing!


Kailan almost does the same thing...

Gathering on a hot summer night...

On a hot summer night, we had hot pot!! After that, Sally, Holly and Ah Yea drove her car to my place to visit Kailan. It took them more than 20 minutes to drive from Kwai Fong to Tsing Yi. I am glad that they did not go to Shatin instead.
Kailan was super happy tonight, as she is just like a kid getting everyone's attention. She will definitely have sweet dream after a long tiring evening.

Pugs are cute!

Mission Impossible 4

MI4 was filmed in Dubai last December. Finally the official trailer is out.
Cannot wait to see the stunts taken at the Burj Khalifa, the world's tallest building on earth.

Road to success!

It's touching.

My first birthday dinner in 2011~

I hope Cynthia will be delivering her baby on a date close to my birthday!
Cynthia's belly is getting so big these days, so we are having dinner nearby her place in Tsuen Wan.
The random pick of this Chiu Chow restaurant is great, and all dishes are nice!
It's always lovely to meet the kids, Scarlett and Anya. Baby Arwin is very awake today too, and he has got the sexy eyes like Tony Cheung.
Group Picture
Silly Anya
Love affair between Aslim and Anya
Scarlett looks alike both Betty and Cary
Happy Scarlett and Anya
Bye Arwin, see you next time.

Bruno Mars

i learn about Bruno Mars because of his song, "Just the Way You Are" and Kate lately shared another interesting MTV of Bruno Mars. It's really awesome. I enjoy watching them move and nod their heads.
