After all these years

Bumped into my secondary school music teacher Ms Fung on a bus today and we chit-chatted some. She was bringing his son to a violin class. When I joked that she should teach him herself she told me she only plays the piano. Well I didn't know that.

I could remember vividly it was also her first year at my school when I was a S.1 kid. She was arguably the best-looking teacher then and was just like an angel to us. I was kind of happy that she recognized me today and to find her yet very attractive despite already a mother of two. How time flies.

And her kid is already playing the piano and the violin at only 6 or 7. I bet he has to spend a lot of time with computers and homework and interest classes also. Being a kid isn't any easier than an adult in this city.

Surprise

I was released from office at about 9pm today and that was such a surprise that I even felt a little bit lost when I was on an MTR but not a cab on my way home. They are saying the busy times would be over for this year. At that moment I was a bit depressed as I had actually quite a fantastic time with my colleagues. I don't know how they feel about me but I think they are great. Just great. From them I know what I lack.

If I was with some people that I dislike for such a long period of time I would probably fight them.

Addictions

1. Franz Ferdinand - Franz Ferdinand
This is perhaps the only thing that could cheer me up midnight at office. This band had really created a whole new world. With only little lyrics for each track (and some are even kind of meaningless) I never got bored from the album. You could see the power of their music.

2. My Happy Times - Eason Chan
Found this somewhere in my room and played it again after these years. I firmly think he would make a great comeback - because he is a guy that knows about music. Leo Ku is nowhere near. I couldn't wait any longer for his new songs this year.

3. Jacky Cheung - Live
When a singer covers others' songs he has either a good voice (like Jacky Cheung) or new musical arrangements for the tracks (like Anthony Wong). However here we have covers performed by people that can't sing at all (like Sammi Cheng). Fame blinds people. And maybe it's one of the good things about Hong Kong.

I miss my bed

Working weekends is definitely pain in the ass. But I am not going to complain about anything as I am already working least hours amongst my team and I think most of the workforce in this city is suffering from long hours actually.

Marquez - 100 years of solitude. Provided the time I put in reading I hope I would finish this within a year.
