too lazy to create my own xanga layout… might do one during fall break…

greatest picture ever.
don’t you think its fate that these people, whose only asset in common is “has a superfan call Kay” can be seen in 1 photograph together?


anyone want to take me to see the tim mcgraw concert in rochester on the 7th, albany on the 8th or buffalo on the 9th? (why is he going in a circle shouldn’t it be albany, rochester, buffalo?) Doesn’t make sense.


Why does every teenager hate country music? Quote facebook:
favourite music: “Everything! I like everything! pop R&B jazz raggae rap azn hiphop rock adult alternative blues (except country)”


To annoy these people, i will post tim’s song on my xanga.

Good thing the drivers on the Tcat bus (the ones that are 30 years my senior) have the same taste as me.

Finally finished the most hectic week of the semester. 4 prelims, 4 hws, 1 quiz, 1 lab and 1 lab report!

But mustn’t relax too much too long … need to start on physics for
next week…and attacking those weekly problem sets that never seem to
end..

Quote of the Day:

*girl behind me walking out of Baker hall after HD115 prelim.*

(To friend on cell phone) “I love tests where the answer to the
question is masterbation.
” (F.I.Y – one of the questions in the test
was “which of the following aren’t mentioned as a cause of low sperm
counts)


I totally agree!

Any test that does not involve answers containing the flow across a
hemisphere 4 units along the x axis in spherical coordinates is a good
test.

*Sigh why am i studying engineering?

WAH! Miracles DO EXIST! my computer miraculously healed itself! I had this faint hope just now that when i turned it on i would see ian thrope and i did! Instead of the ugly blue screen that says ‘your hd cannot be found’. Thank you Thank you Thank you! *muah* love you, whoever performed this miracle.


—————————————————————————–


i busted my computer; i dripped water on it because i washed my hair and now the harddrive is burnt.


Devastated.


Shit my warrenty expired.


But then and again, the main use of my computer is for ICQ/MSN/downloading… less for hw because very little of my hw is done on computer… so i guess its good in this week of prelims where i just have to plough through studying without distractions…


but still devastating. Deem suen?

Subscribed to Time magazine… (gonna cancel before Nov 28th so i don’t have to pay…) , and this is the article about movies in the current issue:

Caught in Double-Cross Fire The good cop – bad cop scenario is given a dizzying, dazzling twist in Hong Kong’s Infernal Affairs

Monday, Sep. 20, 2004
An undercover cop worms his way into a powerful Mob. A mobster joins the police force and rises quickly through the ranks. Each man knows there’s an infiltrator in the other group, but neither knows who the rogue agent is. One thing they do know: if their identities are revealed, one of them will die.


The premise of Infernal Affairs is so simple and so suggestive, it’s amazing there haven’t been a dozen movies like it. Soon there will be. This superbly gnarly Hong Kong thriller, a hit throughout East Asia, is to be remade in Boston as The Departed, with Martin Scorsese directing Leonardo DiCaprio and Matt Damon as the two moles. But why wait for the Hollywood version? The original, now in U.S. theaters, is just about perfect.


For three years, undercover cop Yan (Tony Leung Chiu-wai) has worked for Mob lord Sam (Eric Tsang). Sam’s plant in the Hong Kong Triad Police Bureau is Ming (Andy Lau), whose commander, Wong (Anthony Wong), has been after Sam for most of his career. When the cops try to bust one of Sam’s drug deals, both sides realize they are internally compromised. Yan and Ming must walk a fine line, getting information to their true bosses while hiding their own identities from their duped colleagues. Sometimes the only way to achieve that is by killing an ally.


As if all that weren’t plot enough ?and it’s plenty ?the script by Alan Mak and Felix Chong gives Ming a mystery-novelist wife (Sammi Cheng) and Yan a pretty shrink (Kelly Chen), an ex-girlfriend and a young daughter. At the center, though, is the wary dance of Yan and Ming, each man serving two masters, each character luring the viewer to sympathize with his charade and hope that somehow both can survive. Leung, who played the warrior-lover in Hero, and Lau, Hong Kong’s top pop star and movie magnet, are terrific as smart men, ruthlessly loyal, feeling the nooses tighten and trying not to make the small mistakes that could prove fatal.


Within a year of its 2002 release, the film, directed by Andrew Lau (no relation to Andy) and Mak, had spawned a prequel and a sequel that underlined its similarity to the Godfather films. (The Infernal Affairs trilogy will be shown Oct. 10 as part of the New York Film Festival.) But the first is the best, the densest, the most tightly coiled. Sam’s drug deal and the cops’ tracking of it make for a beautifully orchestrated 20 min. set piece. The camera is ever on the prowl, but discreetly, observantly, like a cat burglar casing his victim’s digs. Little editing ruses ?a second or two of slow motion, say, to catch an actor’s anguished face ?heighten the intensity.


The relentless pace of Infernal Affairs, briskly spinning a story of two men on a collision course with their principles, offers lessons for Hollywood. This is how movies can move. This is how mature an action movie can be.


Haha… SAO…

i love ben and bob… seriously all those people under relationship
trouble / doubts/ queries etc listen to them for a week… you’ll feel.

hmm… da woman on sunday’s show… part 2… starting 23:00…
bought up a good point… really everyone in the end loves themselves
best; can’t blame men if they treat you in a different way after you
get married? Once you get something, you won’t cherish anymore…

Yah so don’t get married so soon…

We need to be *lui keung yen*. No need to depend on men! Gimme 5 Hester! *wink*

My demanding bed



After already buying a skirt for my bed, it was still greatly dissatisfied and complained to me that its friend, my comforter, was white and naked and bare, so the bed begged me to buy some clothes for it. 


*sigh, beds nowadays, they just want so much don’t they? Never satisfied with what they have already… i still remeber the days when all they had was their mattress and nothing else. What is my bed going to ask for next time? a Sham? New pillowcases? New Pillows? A bed post? (BTW, i think that is a high possibility… so i’m already looking for some free alternative to satisfied this desire before my bed asks me to spend $9.99 on bed posts….)



See, don’t you just feel/hear it calling out to you that it needs a bed post? *sigh,  i don’t know how long i’ll be able to last hearing it cry like this.


Yeh, so i bought a cover for my blanket, Its the same one as in the Urban Outtfitters catalog, but it was cheaper off ebay (it was NWT, dunno why neh?) so i bought it off there… but still it was very expensive, i don’t know why quilt covers, or duvets as they call it here, are so expensive grrr…. Damn it i spend more on clothes for my bed than clothes for me….


Yah and i also bought a backpack from TJmax yesterday because i found that you can’t survive college without a small backpack (I left mine in HK, for some stupid reason…) and of course, while i was there, there was a hoodie that was irresistably calling out to me, telling me to take it home, so being the nice girl that i am, of course i did….


So yah…i think i’m turning into a shoppaholic. Which means the more i should spend less time shopping and more time studying, so i can make $$$ to fulful the needs of my furniture and closet. They are SOOO picky i swear. Funny how being in the middle of nowhere enhances your desire to shop online…, i never have the need to do this in Hong Kong….?


me is broke… me need to save up… no more shopping, for some time… … hopefully.

n’tSchool has started for 3 days and so far i have been able to make it to all my classes! ISn’t that amazing???

Today was horrible… it was pouring cats and dogs and my umbrella got
stolen @ Kimball B11 and i was late for class and it was pouring…
luckily Kim + Christina gave me an umbrella ride to and from Baker…
but it wasn’t much use, was drenched head to toe and was freezing in
the normally *ooh-ahhh-air-con-nice* Baker 200 lecture hall… wore a
sweatshirt for the remaining of the day to make sure i didn’t catch a
cold… *sigh i don’t even think i have an extra umbrella…

But… the xanga moment was, our first time cooking! Despite some
*kermkerm* when i mistakenly put a freshly watched frying ladle in a
pan full of hot oil… *ouch…*, and some overly marinated pork, and
some potatos that weren’t as tender as they could be, the meal was good…
hey, what do you expect, need practice to be perfect!


Miss Mak with our cauliflower mushroom and pork stir-fry thing…

Yay!
Hurray for 8: 40 class tmr…

Wah… summer passes by so quickly…
>.< I don’t want to go back… because i know when i go back i’ll
need to study very hard… 1 for me, 2 for parents, 3 for vtos dinner!

this last week in HK i’ve been going out quite alot… so quite
broke… >.< nevertheless didn’t stop me going to sino to buy
sammi Cds. Me trying to collect all the old Sammi Cds but am too cheap
to buy new ones, so have been looking for $9 CDs from the used CD
shop… but she has too many CDs, still missing quite alot. Also bought
her newest CD for $83… very good bor, but alot of the songs were sung
at her concert already, so i guess for us Sammi fans the feeling of
novelty was not as great. Hehe the box and the book and the CD is so
pretty tho…hehe
 

Saw 3 celebrities yesterday! Which is quite good hehe considering we
were just walking about CWB. Lam Hoi Fung, Ella, and Yeung Yuen
Yi..  The miss HK i thought was quite pretty but everyone else was
just commenting on how big her eyes were… actually i feel sorry for
them cuz evryonee just stares and you have to dress really nicely even
if you are just walking around…

Went to watch “Dumpling”… my first III movie watched in a cinema…
Hehe we got carded! Yay at least that means i don’t look that old… It
was quite good, a decent HK movie. Don’t think i’m going to eat
dumplings for a while… ha..

I want to perm + highlight my hair but am not going to due to the lack of $$$ and time…

I want to buy dressy shoes but am not going to due to the lack of $$$

I guess its good though because “owning is the root of evil”

Blabblabblab what am i talking about.? Well congrats to HK for winning
silver, even though those athetes aren’t really HK people… they
haven’t even lived here for 4 years. Olympics is so good, but the
swimming is finished (I love watching swimming!) so i won’t miss too
much when i go back. I love da Thorpedo and i don’t like Phelps. I
don’t like it when one person dominates too much and looks pissed just
because he doesn’t win. Grr.

A handful of pics… i’ll post more laters…i promise… don’t kill me just yet!

Watched Collateral Yesterday and Quill today…
Wah… cried my nose off in Quill… started crying in the middle of the movie? Whats up with that?
Ah well they were both quite good…

Morning movies are so cheap… if i went to Broadway cinema with my mom
and grandma it would cost a total of $60. ($25*2 + $10) That’s the
price of one ticket in Causeway!
