Me = lucky?!
June 29, 2008
I think I'm really disappointed in my mom...i was in the living room watching tv and she was on the phone w/ her friend. So she knew i'm there and I'm pretty sure the things she said is really what she believes in.
Apparently for me to have the job I'm working at is becuz i'm lucky. She said more than once to her friend that her younger daughter is really lucky to have a job and she's lucky becuz her career path was always smooth.
I was actually furious when I heard that. So in her eyes, all my success is due to luck, not because I worked hard for it nor deserve it, just plain luck. I think this is probably the most insulting thing one can hear from one's parent. Now i finally understand why she wasn't exactly proud of me all these yrs, it's becuz i'm just a lucky girl.

Research...
June 21, 2008
I was doing some research regarding my upcoming trip. Just in a few hours, I already learned quit abit of my dream vacation spot.
I just made myself a bowl of noodles, as I was eating, I thought of this plan.
Starting today, I will make sure I learn something new everyday. Because the world is just so big...so many interesting things and facts are out there. I need to explore more of the world I'm living in. I guess you could say that at this moment, I'm knowledge hungry. lol...
So, to start off my agenda, I'm going to read up on Japan's history. I'm highly interested in learning my new favorite country. I was never into history in highschool, mostly becuz it was always about wars...and those were boring stuff for me. However, now that I'm older, I actually want to look back and see how different countries shaped themselves into what we see today.

Public Transit...
June 16, 2008
Today is the first time I traveled with GO train. Have heard many things about the train but never tried it myself, mainly due to the high cost for the rides.
The environment is different from TTC. I like the fact that you can view outside the window at all times. Unlike TTC is underground most of the time. The traveling time is much less than TTC, I think it is because of the fewer stops. I also do like the fact that they have express trains/bus, maybe this is something that TTC can try to implement to their system.
Despite all the good things GO train has, I still would think twice about taking it because of it's price. The cost for a round trip to and from downtown can fill the gas for my car to drive 100+ km which is like 1.5 trips driving to downtown.
I noticed another interesting fact about the train. People tend to either sleep or play sudoku. I see some people sleeping with their mouth opened (I did that too on a tour bus...LOL) and some people would smile to themselves while listening to music. There was this one guy on the train sleeping with his mouth opened, and his face keeps on having movements as if he has cramps on his face/mouth...it was really weird and I couldn't help but stared at him...lol...
I think one enhancement the train can work on is to have wi-fi on the train...hahaha...but I don't think that's gonna happen anytime soon.

last friends...
June 06, 2008
Ever since I started watching Last Friends, I'm drawn to it like the rest of the ppl who love this show. Sometimes I don't understand all the things in the show, but it is after seeing how happy and close friends can be by living together, I am seriously considering it.
I just finished watching ep 9 and this is probably the worst ending so far plus they didn't show the preview like they used to...I hope Ruka won't get raped...I thought she's suppose to be stronger when she fights back...but I guess still not strong enough to beat up that jerk!
Which leads me to think...if I am ever in those fighting situations...I'm gonna be the first to go down for sure...I need to do more exercise and build up my strength...lol...
lol...these few days I tend to sleep vary early like 9 or 10 but wake up around 3 or 4..hmm...

wow time has been flying really fast, it's already mid yr of 2008...it's kinda scary...lol
Anyways, lately I've been thinking about getting a car and moving out. I think I want to move out more than getting a car. The car can wait. But I test drove cooper S and cooper last week...lol surprisingly I like the cooper S much better than the regular one...but then some of my frds said driving auto in cooper S is a waste...so i dont' know..and i'm most definitely not gonna learn manual...lol...the mini is nice, i like the interior and exterior, but somehow it doesn't give me the "wow" factor...maybe i've been looking at it too much? iono...maybe I should look at other cars too...but that's for the future. right now I should concentrate on finding out if I can live out on my own or not.
I know renting a place is not economical, I've heard it from ppl over and over again and I know it's a fact. But it's also a fact that there is no way in hell that I can afford to own a place right now. I don't want to wait for 10 yrs before I can move out. I don't want to miss the opportunity of being independent and enjoying living by myself or with a few friends. This has been my dream since highschool. I think I should at least try it out for a year, and if I don't like it or can't afford it, then I will move back home..lol...but yeah...i really really really really want to move out. hahahahhaha
I got a gift card from big boss the other day, as an appreciation gift, one person from each team got it. I was surprised that I was one of the chosen one, I think this is the first time our dept has something like this in a long time. Signs of the new big boss is doing his job properly. He said he wants to restore the pride of our dept and I thank him for having that ambition. Maybe our dept will head to a better future...who knows...
oh and i cut and dyed my hair...lol
剪了髮, 搬了家, 鏡子裡還是我嗎...
