Journal (Jan-2006)

It is the year of dog now. Hope all my friends will have a good year. Best luck to all of you.

I suddenly thought about a lot of things tonight. Time passed by really fast in the past 3 years. A lot of things happened. I finished my last co-op term; I graduated; I started to work; I began to think about......

Last year, I had many happiness, excitements, sadness and worries. Especially to someone. March, April, May, Oct, Dec...... Also, I started to think about my career, started to really treasure my family. My personality had changed too. Maybe it was because of all those interesting things I went thru last year.

I have passed my second year-cycle, came to the year of dog. I needed to grow up more and think forward now.

Started to drive to work every morning with my uncle for a period of time now, still have a lot of things to improve.

Today, my friend asked me to be the MC of a wedding. Wow. I do know the bride; she is my friend’s wife’s sister. He told me that she wanted me to be one of the MC. However, I am still thinking about it. I know it is something I should treasure. Sometimes, people like to do it but don’t even have the chance. I am so lucky. Thank you, all my friends.

Driving is so dangerous for me. I guess it is because I am not experienced enough. Thanks Linds letting me drive your car. I made 2 big mistakes today. Crazy mistakes.

Now, I would remember not to change lane while the road is curving and the object on the mirror is much closer than what I expect. Luckily, we didn’t die today. The Car went straight on a curve road……… crazy

I was so sick today L. It was because I didn’t wear any jacket when I was on PCL and on the ferry. My job will start on Monday again. Alright, everything needed to be restarted now. I need to get back to my normal mode.

Finally, I had to leave home. It is too fast. We got to the airport at 9am and my flight left at around 11am. I walked on the same hallway as I came but it is the opposite direction this time. The flight did not seem that long. After I arrived Canada, I really do not know when I will go back again.

A month is too long when I am at work, but it is too short when I am at home. It is my last weekend in Hong Kong so I decided to spend most of my time with my family and relatives.

I went to Wong Tai Sin Temple today as shown on the pictures here.

Also, I tried to buy my cellar phone tonight because I only got 5 days left in HK. Unbelievably, that phone is sold out in a lot of regular stores. When I arrived HK, the phone was selling $3600 and now, it was $4000. Still could not believe the price for an electronic would increase.

I heard a very bad news from one of my best friend. Her dad has cancer and only got a few months left. When I talked to her on the phone, she was crying non-stop. I really don’t know what to say to her at that time. Hope she will be alright.
Sometimes, life is helpless. There is nothing I can help for her.

Today, I went hiking with my secondary school friends and her friends. She just told me she is going to get married on April last week. I was so surprised. The 3rd friend I know who will get married this year. However, I may not be able to come back since I am still here on Jan. Too bad that I didn’t know this news before. Otherwise, I would come back on April instead.

I finished camping with the scout troop and got home at 6pm. In the past 10 years, I was always by myself on the New Year Eva. This time, I got to be with over 40 people. It was a good experience and reminded me a lot of memories.

Anyway, Happy 2006. Hope everyone is happy this year.
