Finally go to the playlist.com today to get this song for my blog, this is one of my favourites lately.

Lucky by Jason Mraz
Do you hear me?
Talking to you
Across the water Across the deep blue ocean
Under the open sky
Oh my, baby I'm trying
Boy I hear you in my dreams
I feel your whisper across the sea
I keep you with me in my heart
You make it easier when life gets hard

Lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
Ohhhohhhohhhohhohhohhhohh
They don't know how long it takes
Waiting for a love like this
Every time we say goodbye I wish we had one more kiss
I'll wait for you, I promise you I will

Lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
Lucky we're in love in every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday

And so I'm sailing through the sea
To an island where we'll meet
You'll hear the music fill the air
I'll put a flower in your hair

Though the breezes through the trees
Move so pretty, you're all I see
As the world keeps spinning round
You hold me right here right now

Lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
Lucky we're in love in every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday

Marley & Me

This is such a sweet film, talking about a young couple having the world's worst dog named Marley. When you become a dog owner, you have to take all the good things and the bad things. They are like the jigsaw puzzle, in the end, they come up with a good piece of memory for you and also the puppy.
I want to have a puppy too (i do not have one in my life), if we get a larger flat in the near future, i will definitely do this. Raising a puppy is one of our common goals.

Baby News

Springtime marks the new beginings for everything, and baby news from a friend just arrive in time. Not sure if my friend will be given a pair of twins? If I am lucky, i hope to have twins too, because I can save 10 months time and one round of diet / exercise program.

Inspirations from Laughing Gor

I normally pass by the HK Headline Daily distribution stand everyday before i get to the MTR station, so HK Headline is always my first choice. Meanwhile, Metro Daily is my second choice, because i enjoy reading Mr Wong's column very much. It's always good to start my morning with some inspirational thinking.
黃毅力 CEO實戰手記:Laughing哥啟示小角色,大作為

最近無綫一套電線劇熱爆,連小弟沒有「電視撈飯」的習慣,都知道內裏有一位男演員紅透半邊天,經仔細查看,才發現那位當紅演員不是有型有款的男主角陳鍵鋒或吳卓羲,而是大配角謝天華。他最 初以奸角Laughing哥出場,但實情卻是臥底,令觀眾始料不及,結果大受歡迎。
我撥了數個電話,向一位無綫情報員收集意見,了解一下這位Laughing哥,為甚麼會這麼成功?一查之下,才得知這位仁兄從前只是做伴舞,而1996年的《古惑仔》一片,成為他的事業轉捩點,《古》創下2,000萬票房,系列共6集,他拍足5集,令知名度大增,及後有機會參與《雪狼湖》音樂劇,從而被無綫戲劇製作部總監曾勵珍賞識,吸納為無綫藝員,慢慢由小配角變成大配角。
據聞他對每一部劇集也做了許多工夫,不論戲份如何,他都會揣摩整份劇本內的角色,非常勤力,結果估也估不到,一個奸角都可以令觀眾有這麼大反應,就如我當日的《知命.改命》所說的一樣,人「知命」並不重要,最重要的是改變命運──「改命」。
在我們人生的心路歷程裏,都有着一些不可改變的事實,一一被規範,例如你出生的背景,我們的父母,兄弟姐妹們是誰,以及出生的年代,我們永不可以改變,我們能夠改變的,就是在這個框架裏,扮演好自己的角色。
如果你出身草根階層,便要努力讀書,考取學歷,然後在事業上努力拼搏,這樣就不會有人歧視你;如果你的職位低微,就應該要像當年謝天華一樣,即使只是伴舞一角,也要勤勤力力,做好自己Dancer的角色,然後一步一步上位至小配角,再慢慢走向大配角之路,到最後,才能在今時今日紅得發紫,一時無兩,風頭蓋過一眾有型有款的主角。
他成功的關鍵只有八個字「盡力而為,永不言敗」。每位成功的人,背後都有許多辛酸史,你要找第一個伯樂,就要找對合天時,合地利,合人和的景象,你要得到這三大條件,就要不斷裝備自己,不要鬆懈,因為運氣,永遠只會留給有準備的人。
在職場上,千萬不要低估自己的能力,儘管你現時只是一個小角色,你也不應感到自卑,但如果你一直都相信自己只是一個小角色,永不抬頭的話,那你真的已經到了盡頭,沒有希望了。
只要你永不言敗,願意虛心學習,有耐性與毅力,一定會等到伯樂,並有出人頭地的一天。話雖如此,我也對這位謝天華,作出以下的警誡:記着,上位容易,坐位難,不可以因一時的成功,而沾沾自喜,理應用戰戰兢兢,如履薄冰的心態,把日後每個機會,都發揮得淋漓盡致。
在來臨的文章裏,我會教大家「上位」及如何坐穩位,到最後,我更會總結許多「快上位,快落位」的故事,讓大家加以警惕。

Panda Hair Band

Thank you Winny for this lovely hair band!
Everyone could make it tonight, so the gathering was really nice! Loving the Peking Duck and all the delicious food.

Feeling stressed

Pimples keep popping up on my face in the last 2 weeks. The case is worsening with the fact that I have intense stress at the office while i could not really sleep in the last 2 days. So i decided to take Chinese medicine again, and i went to see the young chinese doctor this lunch. The doctor told me that I am a person who has a wet (濕) digestive system and a hot (熱) base above my disgestive system (basically from head to lungs). I am advised to drink more 冬瓜盅, it's such a good news because i really like this soup!

He is just not that into you

it is a good film, but it is not as humorious as i have expected. So i am a little bit disappointed.
The film is all about love & relationship in the modern world, it's always been a difficult subject. I hope I can master all the skills and feel easy when occassional disagreements hit me.
Anyway, i really love the proposal from Ben Affleck, it's touching!

怒食pizza

The belated birthday dinner for Kitty took place at California Pizza Kitchen. Last night, we felt quite confident about our appetite while we made the order! 5 of us consumed......
2 SNACKS
1 SALAD
1 PASTA
2 PIZZA
2 DESSERT
Don't forget that the size of the dishes are quite big! under the notion of 呻飢莫呻飽, we finished as much as possible, and of course, Ah Lun finished everything before the waiters collected our plates.
