臨行 - 郭富城



臨行捨不得你走 臨行捨不得放手 原諒我這刻人退後
臨行不想講太多 臨行只想哼句歌 來念記這刻一起走過
如果開心講你知 如何感激講你知 尋夢去結果成故事
難忘真心的靠倚 難忘刻骨的句子 能令我痛哭只此一次
孤單旅程悠然繼續行 孤單時候念著你 孤單時候默念這個晚上
伴著你 講心事 如何不捨都要走 如何不捨都放手能遇上片刻等於擁有

Every word touches me now

Karaoke Night

Last night, I had karaoke with 10+ people. I was enjoyed. People drunk (not me). Due to strong skin allergy, I cannot touch alcohol anymore or any liquid yeast product..I was punished to drink water as handicap and cannot go to toilet for 2 hours, but my maximum capacity is 2 Liters of water.. and......i try to sniff into the toilet, without success......

but I found it good because I can talk to people that I don't always talk before, and after stress in work, this is a place to relax as well

Swimming again - Hoping to break personal record again

When I was young at 11, I swim a lot, taught and trained by professional...My best stroke are freestyle and breaststroke. I also learn how to dive start beaufully. I was trained for compeition...

However, after my Dad's death, I have stopped training, and 16 years later, which is 27 years old. I vow to train up again. I know I am too old for this training, but I still want to have some personal achivement.

My best lap time for 50M freestyle when I was 13 was 44 seconds..

Now 16 years from now, my lap time recorded yesterday was 38 seconds.. however.. I was not really in optimum condition... If I keep training with 3 months, my lap time will definitely to 35 seconds or below for sure... That is also my personal goal..

From now, I will do cardio and weight training as well

Sick and work

I was sick in these two days, got flu due to sudden change of weather. Normally, I just take sick leave, but if I take sick leave, I cannot finish the work on time and my team will f**k with the client, so I continue to work until to finish off... One team member asked to me do urgent stuff. I told her that I was sick, but she keep begging me, so as a responsible person, I work for her..

Oh God, how come I become so responsible. In the past, I just ignore it, probably I just changed myself without even notice it..

Speaking to my colleage, he told me that his sister is getting married, and he has to work in weekend, and he cannot finish work before certain day, the company may get sued...

My mind was so blank and dizzy, and I forgot to bring my mobile phone from office to home, forgot to bring umbrella before I left, cannot concentrate when talking to client............this is clearly an indication of body of requesting more rest

but every job is the same, especially with accountant, if you are sick, your desk will pile up..........

I have learned another lesson, people are so kind to me when I am sick, especially in the office, and my friends as well... On Buddhist monk said "it is good that you are sick, then you will learn how people take care of you"

皮蛋瘦肉粥

CLICK HERE



I vow to learn this

煮粥用料:瘦肉1块(猪腱肉最好),皮蛋2个(无铅皮蛋,一则健康些,二则石灰味没那么大),姜1块,水足量,油盐适量

要煮出一锅绵香好味的皮蛋咸瘦肉粥,要诀如下:

1,挑米:煮粥用的米最好用东北大米,就是圆圆短短的珍珠米,煮出的粥特别绵软;

2,煮粥的米要预先腌:约半碗米淘洗干净后,要用2汤匙的油、1个半茶匙的盐和少许水(2茶匙)拌匀,腌至少半小时,放心,虽然用了很多油,但是油会在煮粥的过程中挥发,令米绵烂,所以并不油腻的;

3,煮粥的肉要先用沸水煮煮去腥,或腌成咸肉:煮粥用瘦肉或腌的咸瘦肉,不必太考究是猪的哪一块肉,总之要保持一整块肉块不要切开(我一般用大约巴掌大,1-2厘米厚一块猪肉,如果条件许可,用猪腱肉更好味)。如果用瘦肉煮粥,那么要先用沸水把瘦肉略略煮煮,然后洗净;如果喜欢用腌的咸猪肉煮粥,那么要提前一天腌咸猪肉,方法如下:猪肉一块,冲洗干净,抹干,撒2-3茶匙盐,均匀涂抹在肉上,放冰箱下格(就是不会冻成冰的保鲜格)腌12小时或更长时间才可以入味;

4,煮粥的水要充分沸腾才下材料:大汤锅中放很多水,煮沸,才放材料。先下肉块、姜片,火不要关小,肉块到了沸水中,外面的部分遇热而熟硬,封住了里面的肉汁,这样肉煮了粥后也不难吃,然后待水再次沸腾时下腌好的米和一个切碎的皮蛋,而这第一个皮蛋切碎下粥与米同煮,皮蛋会融化,融入粥的味道中。

5,先大火,后小火,火候要足:水沸了,下了材料后,先大火煮20分钟,然后再转小火煮1个半小时,火候足,粥就绵软入味而且容易消化;

6,粥的质感处理:在转小火煮了1个半小时后,把第二个皮蛋也切碎,同时把煮在粥中的瘦肉捞出来,用筷子扒拉,撕成丝丝状,跟第二个皮蛋一起放回粥中,同煮最后半小时,然后关火。第二个皮蛋在关火前半小时加入粥中,半小时可将第二个皮蛋煮得既没石灰味,同时又变软滑,吃粥时也能吃到有皮蛋,而肉因为是水沸时下的,还保持了一定鲜味,撕成丝后放回粥中,特别好吃。

这样煮出来的粥不必下盐,好味,而且下火,容易消化。如果粥有点粘底,请千万不要用勺子扒拉锅底的粘皮,要不粥会有糊味,我们通常会放一个轻的小调羹在锅底与粥同煮,水沸腾过程中,小调羹也被带动,可以防止粥煮粘底。

What is your personality

Someone asks me about the personality thing on one day.

The sample test is Here

This sample test is far from accurate because the full test will take a long time to complete, but it is a good reflection to look upon yourself.

I have learned this thing since I was 19 and I have been really into it. I were unhappy for some reasons when I was 19 and I realised because my ego is not relating to the world properly. I can give you some insights of some personality types. These insights are not copied from anywhere else, it is my own words. Try to find out which out matches you most. There are 9 types of basic personalities, 27 variants. IF you need reference, please click the link at the bottom

Type 4 THE INDIVIDUALIST
- Some people has put themselves in too much imaginations , they try to create their own world. These people, when they are calm and stable, they are very creative and artistics, however, when they have stress or problems, they try to put their imaginations into destructive behavior. For example, in a bad relationship, they will have a lot imagination of how the relationship should be, but the imagainations are not practical and reasonable at all.

Type 2 Helper
- Some people is defending their fear of lonliness and by helping other people (i am this type), their ego can be calmed down by the people they wanna help. (type 2). They try to seek values by going outside instead of seeking inside. When they are calm, they are really helpful and fulfil the unconditional love. When they are stressed, they will ask for return when they help.

Type 8 Challenger
- Some people like to control the others (type 8), I am not familiarse with this type, but these people can be described as bossy sometimes.

Type 9 Peacemaker
- Some people like to stay away from the world (type 9), pissing people off because they are too "peaceful" and ignoring things. Good things are they always stay calm, but on the bad side is that they sometimes ignore the world too much, and give a people of "not going forward" feeling

Type 3 The Archiever
- Some people like to show off their fame (like the whole United States), this is type 3. No need to say, I think everybody understands what USA is behaved, trying to polish their "brand", but deep inside is really shit..but when these people are healthy, they are very productive and pragmatic

Type 1 THE REFORMER
- Some people is rigid about right and wrong and emphasis on standard and procedure (type 1), however, they try to find a decent standard and assume that the standard is correct. Good things are that they are productive and realiable because they follow the procedure. Bad side is that they have problems in accepting the other "non-standard" procedures even though the "non standard procedures" are the best solution.

Type 7 Entertainer
- Some people cannot stay away from excitment, getting bored easily, always find something to do (type 7), in chinese, we called it "3 minute heat up", new things never pass 3 minutes. Commitment is always a problem because their commitment is based on their level of excitment. If their commitment cannot give them excitment anymore, they will just ignore the commitment. (my flamate is this type as well). When they are calm, they give people a "joyful feeling"

Type 6 Loyer
- Some people defend themselves too much, asking for their own space, and they spend enegy in finding themselves what is stable and safe. (type 6). They are loyal to the place or person that can give them a secure environment. They have a very clear line definding what is enemy and friend. They have a fear of other people "invading their territory" (my flamate also is heavy on this type). When these people are calm, they can show their leadership power and always emphasise trust worthly relationship. They will not betray people easily that are close friends... They value people that they trust.

Type 5 Investigator
- Some people is very analytical, type 5. It can be described as problem solver. I am not familiar with this type as well..

Finding out one's personality is a very difficult task. The personality is inherent from birth. The core ego and fear will remain there. However, education, childhood and all other factors after birth can give a transformation to the personality. In order to find out one's personality, I have to distinguish what actions are inherent, and what actions are not. I have to observe how they handle themselves, relationship, friends, family and career. A person keep ignoring things does not mean they are type 9... By observing how they handle their stuff, then you can find out their basic fear that is deep inside in themselves, especially when they are anxious. Anxiety will directly tell the basic fear in most cases..As such, a personality can be determined... I also have to distinguish which one is their "Main" personality. One person always exhibit 9 persaonlities all the time, but sometimes the main personality is "masked" because of education, society and parents. These factors can transform the basic personality so much that it is very hard to determine..These people may have higher awareness of their action in their life.

I have already found out several of my close friends' personality. I can definitely tell you that I "handle" them very different..

Awareness of oneself is a key factor here. Even for me, I am not good in awareness

Life back to Normal

After a tense relationship between my flatmate and me, she finally spoke up and we solved a lot of misunderstanding.

This is a valuable lesson for me and her. We both got mistakes and we are both right and we are both wrong.

This also teaches me how she works.. For those who don't know enneagram, it is a very accurate personality guidelines, it helps me a lot, transforming my personality so that I can deal with people easily. It corrects my altitute of how to relate myself to this world

After a long observation, she should belong to
Type Seven 7 - Level 5

I belong to Type 2 - Level 5
I am aware of my weakness, but sometimes just out of control, especially dealing with her (Type 7) person. I now understand how type 7 deals with stress.. It is a very valuable lesson for me.

Anyway, I am not interested in blaming who is right and who is wrong, I am more interested in learn a lesson from the past.. One of my new year resolution is to completely change myself so that people will start to admire me.. This is my commitment, I have already shown this altitute in my job. A complete refreshed Ben

I have finally achieved my new year resolution tonight, I can eat the food she cooked. 100 times thank you

I will go back to Hk this easter and stay in Japan for one week.

Here I want you to listen this song as a present

很愛很愛你

地球上兩個人, 能相遇不容易, 做不成你的情人我仍感激.
如果我退回到好朋友的位置,你也就不再需要為難成這樣子

郭富城 - 夢見妳回來



夢見妳回來
作詞:潘源良 作曲:Shinji Tanimura 編曲:黃尚偉

夢見了 忘記了 人海中分開 我耳邊 聽到妳話 妳回來
夢見妳 還愛我 從來無被替代 這世間 充滿美麗的色彩
彷彿知道 情還在 願再一起
不分開 別緊張 別心急 沉睡兩眼 別趕快張開
Dreams come true 妳的香氣又蕩來
就像我 夢魂期待 Dreams come true 重逢 但願就是最愛
夢見妳 尋到妳 誰還想分開 愛過的一切片段 再重來
沒有妳 卻還愛妳 如果不應該 我永遠躲到 夢境內存在
從不知道 情還在 夢裡再次 我等待
別緊張 別心急 矇矓雙眼 要在歡笑裡張開

I watched fireworks in my friends' place at the top floor of the ceiling, very beautiful.

I have something not worked out recently and really depressed, but anyway, new year new beginning

i am keen to change myself so that the people around me can learn more about me. I have to be strong, too weak so far. Be a strong guy

失敗のは当たり前、成功したのは男まえ。物事は試してみればどうかな?
