今天准时下班，天空灰灰的，好像那烟雾又卷土重来，也给自己借口不去跑步了。

接到老大哥从深圳来的电话，他的好友走了 。。。。。 和末期肺癌奋斗了数个月后，今早终于结束了。回家吧，这世界只是个驿站 。。。。。 那家才是永恒的。

Finally ....... Sampras beat Federer in the last exhibition match .

Not that I'm not a big fans of Federer ..... but Sampras is amazing with his serves. I was watching the live telecast when both of them were playing in Shah Alam last Thursday night (I'm dying to watch it live, but the ticket is way too much for me ), and with the quality of Sampras's game, I'm not suprise that he finally take a match from Federer.

And another salute goes to our top woman shuttler, Wong Meow Choo . She did makes us proud, by going all the way, gun down 3 top China players and bring back the trophy .... mind to say, she did it handsomely on the China soil .

And still ..... no salute for myself, I'm still stuck to my couch, even though I hv got my jogging shoes repaired .

一早载着老爸老妈去市集买菜了，又是向那馃条汤档报到 。

买完菜，馋嘴的我乘着老妈给老哥买点心，就跑去水果档想买西瓜。

结果让我见着久违的中国密瓜，就叫老板娘给我那仅剩的半边 。。。。。 以为该是几块钱吧，还为自己的眼明手快沾沾自喜 。 十六块八角 ..... 什么？这就是我的惨叫 。。。。 老板娘赶快安抚我，这很好吃的，有人三十块都买回家呢。我已经听不进去了， 只是在心里盘算怎向老妈子报假价呢 ？？？？

回到家，心好疼哦 。。。。。 下次吃香蕉算了 。

Yeah ...... I hv nothing much to do over here, so I'm starting my countdown a bit earlier .

Ppl around me keep telling me how fast this year has been ..... hemmm, for someone who is dying to clear her study loan, I wish if it could be faster .

Well ...... why I'm so looking forward for next year ??? Coz finally I can resume my travel plan. Gosh, I miss all those travel days ..... on the road, not knowing which day is today (unless the day u shld board ur return flight), trying everything on the street, and mingle with other travellers on road, and simply become one of the local and join in their life .

I think I hv had enoguh rest in 2007 ..... looking forward to go on the road again .

So finally the day has come ...... the 2 digit change, not from 19 to 20 ..... but it is from 29 to 30 . Boy, I hv survive another century ...... merely I think .

Wishes pour in from frenz ..... some I think I didn't wishes them when it's their birthday . But I hv to admit, I'm really weak in remembering ppl's birthday, and that's why I choose to be nice whenever I get to be with them, to make them happy whenever we're together .

It is always a mixed feeling to celebrate my birthday ...... the feeling started 11 years back, when a tragedy hit my family 2 days just before my 19th birthday. And the next few years after it, I would hv shy away when it is come to my birthday ..... as the pain is too much to bear.

Even till now the pain is there, and will always be there. But I resume to celebrate my birthday, for the sake of the love one we lost, knowing him would wants us to keep survive in this not so perfect but yet still beautiful world.

Thanks to my colleagues, throwing me a small birthday party, and for the nice coffee cake too ...... and of coz to my family, and frenz out there, who are always be with me, help me live through day by day.

Viva to the 30th years on this planet ....... I won't promise that I will be a better "kid", but I promise I will be a nice "kid" .

So the real life competition show is bk to the small screen again .... with the debut showing on 22 Nov, for sure I will stay tune.

I watch a bit of the series introducing all the participants ..... hemm, couldn't really get someone like Sandy (NZ expat in HK) in this round. But we will see along the show, maybe there will be some gentleman.

Again, my frenz Lim had asked me abt the participation .... even sent me the formD . But we don't even hv the chance to meet up and produce the audition video. Somemore I still don't know how to swim , not trying hard enough . With all the excuses ..... again I say we will aim for the next one .

But I know that I will looks ugly when come to the competition, becoz I'm really an impatient fellow. I do hv problem when travelling with frenz previously ...... as I'm tired to be the one who is making the decision all the time. That's why I find travelling alone sometimes is quite enjoyable .

Anyhow, still better to watch the show at my comfortable living room .... munching the snacks and end of the day, can sleep on my own bed .

Beginning of the season, when I knew that Henry is leaving Arsenal, I thought all is over for Arsenal ....... and I too started to wonder without Henry, will I continue to stay supporting Arsenal ???

I think the current EPL result just kill off my thought totally. I don't know what kind of magic Arsene hv performed on these "kids" ..... but they're suddenly a fearful force in the EPL. But of coz, Arsenal has had all the talented players from all over the world, which is always been debated in the press, where the England players are denied the chances in this club.

But take a look at Walcott, he's a British, and he does play for Arsenal, brilliantly. In sports, when you are good, then you can perform anywhere ...... and Arsene does has the choice to call up the good players regardless of their nationality.

Last night match with MU ...... is breath taking. I can't bear to watch after Arsenal is down with 2-1 ....... but I force myself to stay tune and keep supporting the team. And they came bk again ..... Gallas put off the mistake he made in the 1st half, and put Arsenal top on the chart again.

I feel sorry as I hv doubt abt Arsenal in the beginning of the season ..... and I guess no matter what in the future, I will still stay on with them ....... as long as Arsene is still in charge .

小时候， 每个人都有玩过酒家家吧 。。。。 似模似样地维持着一个家，柴米油盐似乎都不是大问题，大家只关心着买什么好菜，办个好餐 。

长大了， 现实可不是那么好办 。 最近百物皆涨 。。。。 我每天都是啃面包来做早点， 一向都觉得是最经济的， 现在看来好像变得蛮奢侈了 。

真难想像收入较低的家庭是怎么挨过 。。。。。。 生活压力逼得有些人都去当毛贼或悍贼， 几时轮到我 ？
