我的快樂 會回來的

Chong Jin

Spent the day editing my thesis. This work seems to be endless. No, I will march on. I know I can do it. The broken "N" key on my computer keeps annoying me, though. I don't really think it can be fixed. It just has to be put back to its place every time it is broken.
Mum, Fuzzy and I went to the supermarket together. I chose a raspberry ice cream. We bought lots of different fruit as well.
I spent the evening watching the last few episodes of Chong Jin the Korean tv show. She has become a very successful woman doctor in the palace right now. We are also treated with the love scene between her and her friend, Min. Hope they will get together soon, however, the king seems to be falling in love with her. I guess that's bound to happen. She is beautiful, intelligent, and hard-working, and he is the man who can get anything and anyone he wants.
Dad has taken the car to get the Warrant of Fitness (WOF) today. I will wait for him to pick me up at the end of the work day.

Dreams and reflection

It became very cold in the weekend and I caught a cold. Running nose and headache forced me to stay home last morning. Felt much better after sleeping in, and drank 3 cups of water. I went to work in the afternoon, and discovered that my boss came even after me.
Mum and dad have watched the Korean series completely, but I haven't. I will do that this week. It is a good series. We watched Kung Fu Hustel on DVD: it was so funny! Stephen Chow is a legend.
My dreams were about friends from the past. They all looked exactly the same in my dreams as before: I am sure they have all grown up and look different now. I dreamt that I have missed taking an exam, and by the time I reached the exam room, I only have 30 seconds to complete the exam. >_< However, the second part of the dream was good. I met Dark Angel at work. He is cooking. We went home together. I will leave the other parts to your imagination, but it is facinating and fun.
Oh, I miss you, Dark Angel. What are you doing? Are you working, or are you playing? All I want for Christmas is you, Dark Angel. I wouldn't mind dreaming about you again.

Harry Potter and the Riverside Walk

You have seen the trailer. You have read the news. You have seen the pictures of the young wizards. Now it is the time to watch the movie: Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. We are familiar with the story, but the movie is still amazing. It is harder to face girls who travel in packs than fighting fire-breathing dragons.
The movie theatre is packed with children and parents. It is really crowded. I come out of the theatre feeling unwell and rigid.
I have spent most of the weekend reading The Lord of Silent by Elizabeth Peters. Why does Egyptology facinates people? Is it because of the treasure and the gold promises buried in the sand? Is it because that the stories on the wall in the tombs are interesting? Is it because of the mummies? Maybe it is about all of the above, and so much more. It is also about the people who are excavating and stealing the treasures.
The weather improves on Sunday so we set out tramping on the Riverside walkway. We identify some of the trees beside the river. Letting the bikeriders pass safely is not easy. It is a great exercise for the body and the scenary is great. We have seen three groups of people on boats, and several koi carp fish in the river. Dad has never been able to catch them, though.
