About Me

從小到大都是超級乖乖牌一名。自我信念極低,只要有人反對自己的意見,就會覺得自己一事無成。溫和友善,沒什麼心眼的好人。很怕獨處時手邊沒有東西可讀。不帶本書在身邊會覺得受不了。有本書在手可藉此把自己腦子塞滿,沒有工夫去做自我反省了。愛音樂、愛舞蹈、也愛電影。

種植

我不是個有耐性和愛心的人,我一定不會是好農夫。
是看到莧菜苗子只不過一星期就出來了,還是很高興,我會勤於澆水的!

不安

真的到了6月了,原来想工作假期,已有大半年了。真的接近,有点害怕,也没有那麽兴奋。太多人去澳洲了,那边太多华人,觉得好像已能预想到那边的生活。最近也有很多报道那边的雇主剝削员工,很多负面的报道。

Distressed

under high pressure in these 2 weeks. Keep coming back to office at 8:30am and then off later than 6:30pm. Super busy. Totally no time to deal with personal things. Then feel tired after back home and do nothing. then feeling worried that not yet prepared the trip and study camera info. Bad cycle and keeps annoying and even can't sleep well......

Ricoh GR

I never know that I could be so studious when buying a thing. I never put so much effort in exploring an item that I want to buy. After considering for a month,  reading blog online and review, going to shops to talk to different sales and compare prices, I change my choices from Song A3000, to Olympics EPL7, to  Canon G7X vs Song RX100M3, then Ricoh GR.

 At the final stage, I struggle between Canon G7X and Ricoh GR. G7X is newly issued and is now in price $3580. 1’’ sensor, gd quality image, can selfie and wiifi transmission, very attractive. But I just hopelessly being attracted by the photos of GR.

It is the smallest pocket size camera in APSC sensor. The photos are terrific and the image quality is so good that it can touch my heart. But it is an advanced camera and more suitable to one who is experienced in photography. Also, the camera was promoted in market in 2013 already so it is relatively old. The price is over$4600 and need to buy the electricity charge stand and protection sticker yourself.G7X is at least HK$1000 cheaper than GR. I worry that I waste the good camera as it is too advanced and I may not know how to make good use of it. Also, some people said it had bad focus in dim night…….

At last, I bought GR on 22 May 2015 at Mong Kok. I just can’t forget the quality of image of it since I saw it at Katrina’s home at Shanghai when the guy Google took it out. I like the belief of Ricoh, the low-key appearance, the small and convenience, and most importantly, the good quality of image.


In the process of preparing interview in IO and buying camera, I finally know why my life is so mediocre. These 2 cases are the only thing that I try so hard to prepare and the thing that I really want it. Before that, I never know that one should put so much effort in a thing.Even when I choose the university, or stream to study, I never investigate so deep and put so much time in it. I feel shamed of that.

The most expensive toy I bought,,,,,,

Once in a Lifetime

Jockey Club Auditorium, PolyU

Le French May - Film Screening: Once in a Lifetime
Bonjour! We're pairing up with Le French May to present three magnificent programmes to PolyU students and staff on campus this May. Many of you have already enjoyed Jo Bithume Company's electrifying music and Lise de la Salle's exquisite piano recital. This time we're going to showcase the French's genius for the cinema.

Synopsis of Once in a Lifetime
This is the toughest high school class Ms Gueguen (Ariane Ascaride) has ever taught, but Ms Gueguen is not an ordinary history teacher. On the first day of school, Ms Gueguen forbids her students from caps, earphones, and chewing gums in class. Impulsive, self-centeredand materialistic, her students do not seem 'reformable' at all. But Ms Gueguen sees hope in them and is determined to 'educate' them. She compels her students to participate in a national high school competition on the theme of 'Children and Teenagers in Nazi Concentration Camps'. Will the lives of her students be transformed? Based on a true story, the screenplay is co-written by the leading actor Ahmed Dramé and the director.

Thanks for my fd's invitation, it is a good movie! I haven't watched French movie for long time. To be frankly, the rhythm and mood of French movie is quite different from the usual Holloywood one I saw. But this one is an attractive movie, especially it involved concentration camp. I like the music as well. THey used Chopin and French composer's music through the movie and highlighted the mood.



Nazi concentration camp is a horrible memory, in human being's history.

烦躁的自己,不变的生活

連續很多個星期做了宅女。看到一個Blog宅女也很忙,深有同感。忙著看網上小說,忙著看戲看電視劇,養生運動。其實很討厭自己這樣。雖然舒服,卻對自己的人生一點幫助也沒有,徒增空白。像上星期五一勞動節連六日共3天假,我都窩在家,懶得約人、打扮、約會。會什麽我會這樣?想起來,我自中學已是這樣,好像一點改變都沒有。看了很久電話看小說,看得眼睛腫痛,心情也不好。有時想,沒有電話的年代真好,人的生活傾向正常健康,沒有上癮或依賴。

IO出了信,在waiting list. 有點高興,至少不是直接收offer letter. IO那個月,我花了很多時間去預備。第一次知道,原來當你真的很想要,你可以變得很努力。如果我畢業的時候,也那樣有目標和幹勁就好了。今年減了預算,請的人數也少了,所以是時候計畫工作假期,偏偏我又懶得預備,有時想不如到時直接過去什麽都不要想。

本來有位同事8月會過去,我壓根兒沒有想過有有夥伴一起去澳洲,因為我想這一年應該嘗試脫離自己的安全網。但知道她也去,在同一個城市,我覺得安心不小,心裡踏實許多。昨天突然她說計畫有變,可能只去一個月,我心覺空空的,又不安起來。

決定去1年的工作假期,隨著年紀越大,壓力越大。家人的不支持和擔心、自己對自己生活料理能力不放心、世人的眼光(覺得你一把年紀還像廿齡的人般去玩) 、害怕找不到工作、害怕辛苦、擔心自己的健康、憂慮回來後找不到比現在更好的工作、怕自己沒有好好利用道一年荒廢了時間……

不過想改變的心情還在。好想改變一下自己的生活。我知道繼續下去,我的生活模式不會改變,持續在厭倦自己生活方式的模式中。我渴望有一些事情發生、讓我有些盼望,讓我感到一絲希望。我發覺自己很需要有些事情去期待,這樣我才有動力,才能吸引我走下去。我好希望自己能不斷學習新的事物,有新的體驗,能不停進步。否則,我我有不進則退,腐爛下去的感覺。

其實我覺得自己蠻適合旅行,不知為何每次在旅行中,我覺得自己通常會走向積極充實外向開放的一面,呈現出更精力充沛和美好的自己,和窩在家中的我不太一樣。有時不太喜歡自己的兩極化。懶得見人,一定要準備好了才可以見人,否則寧願頹廢在家。


有時想,澳洲是否好的選擇。實在太多人去,太多華人在那邊。紐西蘭、英國、加拿大會否較好? 但澳洲人工較高、工種較多,賺夠了有好多地方可以去,也可去紐西蘭,所以最後,我還是向錢和實際屈服。

Game of Thrones

It combines all of my favourite element: Medieval ages, a created world and empire, dragon, bravery, brave girl, human nature, etc. Can't imagine that HBO filmed it in a movie scale and spending. Sometimes I feel the TV episodes are better than movies nowadays as it goes longer and deeper.

The Imitation Game

The Imitation Game (2014) Poster

"Sometimes it is the people who no one imagines anything of who do the things that no one can imagine."

"Do you know, this morning I was on a train that went through a city that wouldn't exist if it wasn't for you. I bought a ticket from a man who would likely be dead if it wasn't for you. I read up, on my work, a whole field of scientific inquiry that only exists because of you. Now, if you wish you could have been normal... I can promise you I do not. The world is an infinitely better place precisely because you weren't."

Movie, KANO, 電影海報
Mom said the movie always reminded her the memory of childhood in Taiwan. I think it successfully created the mood of the old taiwan being ruled by Japan. Can't deny that Japan put effort the build up Taiwan and made it prosperous.

Intersteller

Although the concept and special terms of the universal is complicated, I still enjoying the 3 hrs movie. The director has his own style and special favor of the type of movie.

Gone girl

Having heard from many people, I finally watched the movie. The plot is well planned and quite horrible and scaring when the storyline goes on.

Jo Bithume Company 以銅管樂及敲擊樂創新演繹法國傳統國慶街頭舞曲,為全球觀眾帶來歡樂。

These 9 French musicians entertain audiences from all around the
world with their big brass band and percussion ensemble. Enhancing
the French tradition of “bal populaire” (public dancing), their
original compositions – a mix of brass band instruments: trumpets,
trombone, ute, saxophones, tuba and electronic beats – create a
festive atmosphere suitable for all audiences.
 
The Jo Bithume Company brings together several generations of
artists from different horizons. Its reputation grew thanks to largescale
performances, and the way it fuses comedy and music.
Often written collectively, their shows are powerful and always
carry a universal message.


So glad that my friend invited me to join the show. Their music is like electronic music plus brass music. The 9 music players are very funny. THey played the instruments and danced in a simple but cute way. You can feel that they enjoyed the music very much. They invited the audience to stand up and dance. So cute that many people , especailly the young people danced happily and let the atmosphere be more vivid. My friendbought their disc and I am glad that she enjoyed it~
