Al Jazeera

Heard that a uni classmate of mine is currently working at the Al Jazeera London Bureau... WOW... wonder how that feels... would probably be more intense if she was there at the height of the beheadings about a year or 2 ago...gee...

Comparatively, what I'm doing here is child's play man...

Dear Mr Chia...

　　主任好几天前叫我联络前非选区议员谢镜丰了解他的近况。对这份差事，我挣扎了好一段时间。
　　谢镜丰是我入行第一个采访的反对党人士。大选时被指定“跟”着他，与他的关系还算不错。圣诞节期间，他还把一张我访问他的照片记给了我。
　　我很清楚刚过去大选的落败对他的打击不小，而他在宣布退出政坛时，也一再强调要平淡度日，不想再扑光。这次的访问也如此。
　　虽然在一些人的眼中他可能是个轻言放弃的人，但对于这个几经波折的认真政客，他的离开还是叫许多人难过，也了解他的处境。尽管还有些人对他的所作所为冷嘲热讽，但大多数都是出自一片关爱之心。
　　Dear Mr. Chia,
希望明天将刊登的新闻不会带给你太大的困扰。Just like to say, there are many people out there who still care a lot about you. 希望你这次的休息是为了在以后能够走更远的路。
　　Take care & Don't forget to sign my book as you promised when we next meet!

On Da Vinci & Colours...

　　Currently working on a piece on Adidas for this Fri's fashion column & came across this quote by the master Leonardo Da Vinci used on the adicolor adverts:
　　“For those colours which you wish to be beautiful, always first prepare a pure white ground.”
　　“您所期望的绚丽色泽，总是基于纯白色的铺垫。”

　　Reflecting on it, 人生不也是如此吗？
　　一个洁白的canvas有无限的possibilities,　任由上色者创造自己的一片天空。人也一样，如果没有包袱，一身清，不必介意他人的期盼，可以自由发挥，给人耳目一新的感觉。要在一个已经被涂上颜色的canvas或背景复杂上的人创造出惊艳，就无法那么做了。

　　Was into art at some point during secondary school and came across "The Notebooks of Leonardo Da Vinci". In it there was a section on the reflection of colours with 2 perspectives by the master:

PERSPECTIVE 1:

Every object devoid of colour in itself is more or less tinged by the colour [of the object] placed opposite. This may be seen by experience, inasmuch as any object which mirrors another assumes the colour of the object mirrored in it. And if the surface thus partially coloured is white the portion which has a red reflection will appear red, or any other colour, whether bright or dark.

PERSPECTIVE 2:

Every opaque and colourless body assumes the hue of the colour reflected on it; as happens with a white wall.

　　无奈的，即使一个人希望做个blank canvas，力保个人的纯洁纯真，还是会被周遭环境所影响或牵连。虽然说人贵自重，要出淤泥而不染却不是一个人的事。正如工作、结婚等也往往无法依据个人的选择或决定。

　　在现今这个讲求个人化的时代里，我们是否真正的能寻找到自我？还是只是通过个性化的衣着和艺术寻找发泄的途径，做垂死的挣扎？

:p

After today, I can vulge that it's not fun at all trying to write a food review when you're feeling sick and having diarrheoa.

Don't get me wrong, there was nothing wrong with the food, in fact it was superb... best chawanmushi i ever had in my life... just that the thought of food just made things worse...

I can only blame myself for it, having had a crazy weekend.... craziest i had in months and definitely one of the best sessions i've had... but not a gd idea to mix beer with liquor (mental note for future weekends....)

Best memory of the night was going to 7 eleven to get a bottle of sminorff & coke/sprite/miranda orange and stood around outside after that to mix our own drinks b4 heading to MOS. I know it's cheapskate but it brings back great memories of London , especially the stash I had in my room....

Had a great weekend with a bunch of really nice frens from uni... so sad that they'll all be heading back to London in early July to work.... gonna miss them...oh well... guess the least I can do now is to treasure their company while they're around... looking forward to Saturday again!

My Sat :)








... but first I need to get quite a few articles out of the way......must stop procrastinating.......

This is so cute!

当仰慕的人再次现身

　　曾经在求学时喜欢上一个男生，觉得他人品不错，是我喜欢的那种外表斯文，有冲劲、有理想的那一类型。虽然身为现代女性，总觉得追求、交往这种事还是等男方来主动比较好，何况当时也没有真正和他说话，对他也不是很熟悉，所以也没有作出暗示或表示，后来就这样不了了之。　　
　　最近，这个男生又重新出现在我的生命中，我们之间的交情也比以往深，让我有些不知所措。不知道该听从自己的心还是要坚持理性应对。
　　虽然已经事隔多年，以为自己已忘了他，但最近见到他，还是会不由自主地心跳加速，平时讲个不停的嘴巴也会开始结巴起来。心里已好久没有那种甜滋滋的少女情怀。
　　可是，我始终觉得a crush should always remain a crush. When fantasy becomes reality, it loses its magic。尽管我现在没有意思和他交往，但如果把当初的事和目前复杂的心情说出来，可能连朋友都没得做。
　　所以，还是做朋友好了...一切顺其自然。
　　如果与仰慕的人再次重逢，你会怎么做？

...

　　看到朋友的MSN nick上写了这么样的一句歌词：我的心挣脱了爱,跟随着夕阳迈进了海洋。
　　对于感情和人生，很多人都有着不必要的执著，包括我自己在内。
　　The more you hang on, the worse it gets and gradually you'll start losing yourself.
　　能够理性地从烦心的事抽身，将自己的心释放出来，把过去的不愉快流放，就能够有一个新的开始。自己也会变得更坚强，更清楚自己要前往的方向。
　　X加油哦！我也会加油的......
　　希望我们的烦恼能够随着夕阳消失，新一天的日出快快到来。

送上这首歌给你，共勉之...很想念JC时K歌的日子...

《我要快乐》 - 张惠妹

又被爱伤了一遍
无所谓当作成长
刚刚走开的人
烟还点着味道却淡了
我并不是天生爱寂寞
却比任何人都多
就算把世界给我
我还是一无所有
我要快乐我要能睡的安稳
有些人不抱了才温暖
离开了才不恨我早应该割舍
我要快乐哪怕笑的再大声
心不是热的全都是假的
只有眼泪是真的
把从前想了一遍
谢谢了伤我的人
想做乐观的人
每种雨声听了都不冷
我并不是天生爱寂寞
却比任何人都多
就算把世界给我
我还是一无所有
我要快乐我要能睡的安稳
有些人不抱了才温暖
离开了才不恨我早应该割舍
我要快乐哪怕笑的再大声
心不是热的全都是假的
我的决定是对的
