Cold

The end is near. I have never experienced a colder Hong Kong in my life. Not many people can bear the temperature at such without a good heater. I could not sleep at night when the only one heater was operated inside my dad's room. Shivered and trembled, I never managed to sleep in the night.

My mum, who had to get out of her bed to bath her legs in hot water, told me it was actually harsh for everyone in this condition.

So it was reasonable to let the kids to stay at home and skip the class?

"I remembered the situation was much tough when I was young in China. It was the same cold cold night, but we did not have enough clothing. You simply could not imagine how adverse it was, but that has been the norm those days."

"When you were in poverty, you could only endure the cold."

I wish I inherit some of her courage so I can face up with my great challenge this year. I need not just the knowledge, but the mentality to fight.

It was the worst time of manchester united, since I ever support it.

Because they are losing fans, the core of the club.

Blame Louis Van Gaal, blame wayne rooney, blame everyone. The club has really losing the aura to have the stylish football they used to have. The hitrate of video in youtube broadcasting the old times has never been so high, and our missing to the legendary players and the legendary manager Sir Alex Ferguson has never been so deep.

The fate of manchester united and I were also linked together, and I hoped, we can get ourselves up and stand tall to the future, in this cold cold night.

Celebration

Today is silent night. People decided to gather themselves, drink a lot and celebrate.

It looks as if we need to reduce greenhouse gas production by consuming a lot more energy.

Changes

Suddenly I realize I will be bound to yuen long for quite some time. Is that something I really want?

On the other hand, I have become a robot I need to be, though I dont know I really want to be.

Joke

History has taught us lessons about human history
But Tragedy taught us more about lives, as The Greek philosophers said
How about some tragedies from comedy
Here I introduce to you, Wong Tsz Wah
He is just so famous that does not need description
However, my friends, have you seen his earlier production?
Those were the true pearl and diamonds
Speaking the unspoken sorrow of our modern lives
From family, love and politics
And all those absurd routines of our daily livings
He had made the way to reflect the problems
What we see everyday and what we ignore everyday
The problem of us

Wong Kar Wai might made some sentimental movies
making use the lines and images to impress you
But Wong Tsz Wah made his standup comedy by taking the contents of our abstract lives
to embed it to our minds
More observant I have become
About the truth of our community
And the truth of ourselves

May be someday I really will make a standup comedy to tell those tragedy that happen every day.

Run for a reason

I have been training so frequently on running that I almost forgot why I run.

I have been longing to get back to the field where I find the joy in my life, with football and friends. We might not always win, but we played with fun.

But now that I have resumed my capability to play, I have lost the friends to play with me. Because of work or anything else, no one is there for me.

I have lost the most important cause to run. Now I run, run for no where.

Ghost

After all these years, the ghost finally left.

Runner

She says, she met her boyfriend when she was doing running practice on the track.

What a story to tell. What a boring story to tell.

I used to try to have company when I do running. The merits are you wont feel alone and you can talk whatever you like.

But then I realize running should be a solo game. Different people have different paces. Nothing should alter your pace, not the traffic lights, your opponents or the tempo of the music you listen to.

I am a solo man afterwards, and I will continue to do it all alone.
