Emotional tears normally come in response to sadness or sorrow.
Today, I saw tears rolling down your cheeks.
Given the above statement, you were sad.
I was sad, too.
I hope this will not happen again.

New House + TV
New house is almost ready. The phone is ready, internet is ready, most of the furnitures are in place, and yep, the TV is installed this evening as well.
Although the TV is here, but I am not exactly as thrilled at the moment because I cannot use the TV just yet, because the cable guy won’t come until tomorrow night. I have no CD/DVD/HD/BD player of any kind therefore I cannot really test it at all, except just sitting with a blank display.
However, the TV looks gorgeous on its own, the very excellent BenQ SH3741. I would love to get a Sony PS3 to go with it so I can watch full HD BD movies. Maybe that will be the next item in my endless long shopping list.
I was right, I do love the TV more than the house, and I think I will love it even more tomorrow night when I can actually use it.
I spent most of my after work hours last week to move things to the new house. People ask me why I didn’t call for a mover but I thought I didn’t have that much stuff, and move myself. However, I was wrong. It was tiring and very tiring.
Anyway, the good news is I have finished moving! Now I am just waiting for new TV to come and cable TV guy and install cable TV for us. However, internet and phone is not yet there but I will try to have them sorted out next week.
Not sure why, I am more looking forward to the TV than the house itself… Mmm…

Cannot Get Enough
I just cannot get enough of you.
Yes, I haven’t been updating in a while because I have been too busy stuck in Sydney. The good thing is, I can finally fly back tomorrow.
Quite frankly, the whole trip hasn’t been exactly great. It has gotten better, but never like what I first expected. The whole trip could have been a lot better if my boss hasn’t been too much of a prick.
They wanted me to say for a week I said OK.
After I got here they wanted me to say for three months. No way.
I said my rent in Taipei finishes on the 15th therefore I need to move out before then, they said OK, come back on the 14th.
What? Are you out of your fucking mind? I also need time to pack, clean and arrange mover you dumb fuck, tell me I can arrange that in one day????
Now they are telling me after I come back I might have to fly back to Sydney again, and this time really for three months.
Fuck you no deal. I am coming back early no matter what.
I mean, I don’t mind to stay here for three months if I am to stay in a more urbane area. Unfortunately where the company is located is like in a remote area off the east side of Sydney. It is a little like Clayton in Melbourne, where you do not get much except, houses, trees and nothing more.
Please do not get me wrong, I love Sydney. It is a great place, except the location of the company is just a little too remote for my liking. Perhaps I am more used to Melbourne city life, and the convenience of going to shopping malls and restaurants in 5 minutes, by foot.
Maybe I should rent a car.
Anyway, slowly but painfully, I did get to know this neighborhood a bit better. Hopefully it will get better next time I come back, but still, I hope not for three months.
Oh yah, last day tomorrow, I cannot wait to go back!

New Hairstyle
I got a haircut today. I look, well, different. Actually, every time after I had a haircut, people just say I look very different. They always say that I look very “not me”. Nevertheless, this haircut I like a lot, so I am not complaining.
However, one problem though, because of this haircut, now I look too young. I don’t mind looking young, except for one person, hahaha.
I went to watch Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End, and regrettably to say, as predicted, it was shit.
The movie was long, it was boring, it wasn’t exciting and it was predictable. The movie wasn’t fun like the first one and it just dragged on for a bit too long, more than three hours to be exact. I actually had a sore bottom after watching it because it was just too long. I had the same feel watching Spider Man 3.
Well, the movie that I really really want to watch, Ocean’s Thirteen, will be out soon, and hopefully it won’t disappoint again.
It has been a while it I had taken sticker photos. My God, these sticker machines really are complex to use nowadays, compared to the ones I used six years ago, there are just so many more features and actions you can use!!
We took about ten, and picked five which we found the best and printed them. There is one that I particularly like, I just find it real funny.
Peter, Lawrence and myself went to visit Kelly at the hospital after work.
It was a tiny room, shared with another patient which the two beds were divided only by a piece of blue cloth hanging from the ceiling. There was a little bedside table, covered with flowers from friends, and colleagues. Her parents, and sister were also there accompanying her.
Kelly looked tired, a little pale, but her spirit seemed high.
We talked briefly, and she seemed to feel a lot of pain every time she worked her stomach, such as when she started to laugh, or cough.
Her parents said even though the operation was not common, but the wound was not small. I mean, having a fifteen centimeter long tumor removed, it could not have been a small operation. Thank God the tumor turned out benign, and not malignant. It was a real relief, especially for her parents, as they both looked exhausted, probably from a lack of sleep and constantly worrying what could have been, something, a lot worse.
After the visit, it is just so difficult not to remind ourselves again that we should really take better care of our own health. Also, the support, strength and courage your family and friends can provide in order to carry you through this difficult time, is priceless.
We all look forward to see Kelly back in office soon!
