十三釵

2012-01-30T16:45:00.001+08:00

多年來農曆年都會去戲院看場戲的，今年竟然連一場都沒有機會看。之前反而看了「金陵十三釵」，又一齣不是我打算會看的電影，後來才知道是張藝謀的作品，還有Christian Bale。結果看到哭了。

原來電影改編自同名小說，並不是真人真事。記得看報章上見內地歌手韓紅看完電影即決定罷日貨。

大家或者都略知故事背景是南京大屠殺吧，就是一班妓院的女子替代十三個女生去面對日軍所謂的「慶祝會」。

Christian Bale飾演到教堂提供殯儀服務的老外，卻充當神父，演出蠻有說服力。原來此角本來另有其他候選演員，包括Tom Hanks及Leonardo DiCaprio。

電影雖然頗長，不過沒有悶場，女觀眾應該都難忍眼淚。

電影完結後看credit，原來戰爭片段都有來自德國的電影幕後專家參與。張大導又一齣很荷李活的作品。

新春略記

2012-01-27T09:15:00.000+08:00

其實一如以往的農曆年，都是忙個不停：執屋、打掃、行年宵(多次)、拜年、準備利是、辦年貨、多次家庭聚會(為期是整個正月﹗)、這回還要在家中忙工作的事，真麻煩﹗

這次什麼都是臨急抱佛腳，連辦年貨都是當天的禮當天買，怎知處處都要排隊，又原來年初一晚上惠X和百X都早收，最後竟然幫襯七仔﹗

五天假期有一兩天有充足睡眠，初二晚更從凌晨五時睡至初三下午兩時多﹗

不過初四開工前一晚幾乎沒睡過便上班了，還要天未亮在寒風凜冽的大清早等車，真淒涼。

相信一部份人都已開工了，祝大家新一年事事稱心，步步高陞，身壯力健﹗

龍馬精神﹗

My Little Princess 我的小公主

2012-01-12T11:00:00.000+08:00

我的電影文章快絕跡了。

今年法國電影節只有時間及成功買到兩場，第一場是這齣由Isabelle Huppert演出的"My Little Princess"(imdb)。又是因為想看Huppert才揀的，而且電影描寫母女情，不過這個母親令人側目。

Isabelle Huppert飾演攝影師母親Hanah Giurgiu，作品有點嘩眾取寵，喜歡捕捉女模特兒性感一面，題材都較大膽。眼見女兒Violetta出落標緻，雖然還未開始發育，她卻叫女兒作其模特兒，越拍越出位，要女兒打開雙腿，一次更要求女兒脫去上衣和男模合照，不太懂事的女兒也喝停。

Hanah和其年邁母親的關係又是另一個故事，原來她倆不是兩母女。女兒和外祖母平日相依生活，母親Hanah則神經刀偶然便出現找女兒聚聚，忽而出現學校接她放學，忽而又返家帶她往旅遊，其實都是去拍照。

想看Huppert想看點母女情故事，都可以一看，不過沒甚驚喜。

電影原來是導演Eva Ionesco的童年寫照。

今天的事今天做

2012-01-10T22:09:00.001+08:00

聖誕期間與家人聚，小甥女問其母(我大姊)為什麼事情總要"即刻做"？

我說：第日你出嚟做嘢，好多老細都要樣樣"即刻做"架，無得等...

小時候我會問這種問題麼﹖我也忘了。只記得那時是有"今天的事今天做，不要等待到明天"，是不是每個小孩子都聽過呢﹖

不過不知道從何事開始，我已經不太喜歡/習慣"今天的事今天做了"。唔，應該說都會即日做的，不過不太喜歡即時做。 :)

花串

2011-12-29T14:31:00.000+08:00

那天和二姊二人撑枱腳做冬(一晚兩場)，揀了蘭桂坊的花串，晚上人客較少，她說午飯時段永遠要等位的。

是夜飲品也有折，$38 for two。我倆都要薑蜜(類似的東西)，一凍一熱。晚餐揀了這個$690二人套餐，由她請客 ^_^

份量剛好，款式不少，刺身非常新鮮。

河豚乾：

刺身：

羊扒：

青椒：

天婦羅白飯魚：

關東煮：

栗子炒飯(略嫌乾了一點)：

芝麻雪糕+紅豆：

好味又滿足，多謝家姐！

假期

2011-12-27T22:50:00.001+08:00

一連四天假期又完了。時間真快，今年聖誕也過得蠻愉快，不過沒有回教會，唔，不應該再懶了 ;)。

今年收到最多的禮物是Crabtree迷你handcream... 數數手指一共有十二支，今年又可以暫停買handcream了。不過我真的比較喜歡L'Occitane的handcream。

另外有scarf, 乾瑤柱, 香水(不過未俾番錢我！), 朱古力, 牙膏！都是handcream同foot cream, 不過是L'Occitane :), 噢還有迷你Lego！和公司交換禮物超級"行"的相架一個！

聖誕聚會/餐也一如往年去了幾個，都是家人及七友的啦。

這個聖誕夠冷，太好了。

啊，不如說說我買了什麼禮物吧，嘩其實真的不少。我一向都是送多過收的．．．有送給同事的迷你panettone，聖誕曲奇，朱古力等，給甥女們的可愛暖毯和兔仔鉛芯筆，給兩個姊姊的上衣，袋，洗頭水/護髮素，表妹的袋，還有家人們的法國餅，膶腸，唇膏，上衣，年輕親友的boxers，pants，scarf，朱古力，socks，和七友們交換禮物的$200 budget的Agnes B bear bear，$20 budget的棉花兩包等。

$20 budget這個蠻好玩的，十一人出席有一位沒有買。我抽到會計高官買的小lego :) $200 budget的這次是未來高官買我的Godiva朱古力+面膜。其實那天出來打邊爐時大家抽了名字之後都叫各人說說自己大概喜歡些什麼和不想要些什麼。我就說不介意是吃的，尤其是優質的朱古力。所以自然是收到穩陣的朱古力了。

二姊也買了朱古力給我，是味美的日本Mary's Chocolate。

我那隻Agnes B bear bear是買給老闆的，因為她很喜歡Agnes B這個品牌，她還說會把bear bear放在自己的店舖裏呢！

下面是這幾天的一些相片：

和母親及二姊吃的聖誕Brunch(Harvey Nichols Fourth Floor Restaurant)水準不俗，頭盆及主菜可揀，湯及甜品則指定：

我和二姊都揀了鵝肝作頭盆，羊作主菜。母親就揀了海鮮沙律作頭盆，魚作主菜。甜品忘了名字，不過很好吃。

聖誕夜看完The Skin I Live In去了不倒翁打邊爐。這回兩個人比上次一大枱人昂貴了：

二姊做的bread pudding：

七友聖誕聚，節目由下午三點半開始，他們兩枱麻將打至八時多便晚飯，是夜偉大的會計高官請客，因她升了職多時想請大家吃一頓，多謝哂！ ^_^ 之前有說過今晚dress code是全紅，我以為只是說說，怎料十一人裏只有三人包括我沒有穿紅。

晚飯是香港老飯店，有好幾碟都是未試過在此店吃的，都好味！尤其這個甜品：什麼煎芋餅

$20 budget的禮物有人買環保袋，揮春，薯片，家中拿的意大利粉，牙膏，六合彩一張，和我買的棉花兩包及抽到的Lego。$200 budget的禮物是兩星期前先抽名再買的，六個人玩(沒趣的保險人不願玩)。有：Godiva +面膜，我買的bear bear，指甲油+stockings，指甲油，Laneige防曬和___ (???)。

Winterfest都是昨晚才有機會去一看，很漂亮！

Almodovar的The Skin I Live In都是因為到了戲院忽然有人退票才有機會看，有機會要去看，精彩！

我的小Lego：

很討厭這個blogger upload photo的新setting！攪四萬次都唔掂！！！

Merry Christmas!

Repetto

2011-12-21T16:30:00.000+08:00

著名的法國芭蕾舞鞋子品牌Repetto終於登陸香港了。雖然去年已在Harvey Nichols有售，不過自家的專門店真的是全港第一間。

和法國那邊比較店舖當然很小了，裏面還有扶把barre給試舞鞋的顧客一用。

舞袋及手袋反而頗吸引，因為相對價錢比較相宜，鞋子則價格較高昂了，去年/年初都是因為HN大減價時才捨得買一對。

店舖位於 IFC二樓近Apple Store及咖啡店，所以有一定的人流。

原來我也有多篇文章提及Repetto的。

一晚兩火鍋店

2011-12-18T11:45:00.001+08:00

一晚去了兩間火鍋店應該是首次了。事源是夜慶生，七友中兩位十二月生辰，其中一人提議去一間她友人曾光顧又盛讚位於大角咀的力奇火鍋，大家都未聽過此店，於是即使知道未必坐得舒服都膽粗粗一試，結果是坐了個多小時也沒東西吃，氣結地離去，轉去舒服得多又有海景價錢又不特別昂貴位於iSquare的不倒翁中日火鍋去。

最不忿是那間像街市大排檔的力奇(環境不是問題，食物質素及服務最為重要)，一個多小時也只有兩個鍋和湯底，還有啤酒和蔗汁等奉上，其他什麼也沒有，根本不夠人手。門外站了數十人，老外也有，想必很值得一試，儘管坐得不舒服．．．

後來對侍應說我們要走了，才有兩碟東西放上來，大家都沒有信心留下來了，可知吃火鍋要一邊吃一邊叫菜的，每次都要等一小時才有一兩碟東西我們哪有那麼多時間和耐性﹖

不過原來連結賬走人都不可以即時攪掂，我們好人，被她們擾攘一大輪也未能找那兩個鍋和酒水的數。生日之星更是好人中的好人，我說不如放一百元在枱上便走好了，她最後真的就範乖乖付了＄３９５。大排檔式火鍋兩個煲加酒水各一都要＄３９５﹗

〈這裏的相片都是不倒翁的，不是力奇）

iSquare就是iSquare，服務和速度都很好，牛肩脊好吃到不得了，芋頭也非常好味，一定要吃。還有黑豚肉。菜也很新鮮。

人家即使是龍蝦湯底（我們沒有叫）也不過＄２８０而已。

一輪狂風掃落葉，大家好像放監似的停不下來，我連可樂也喝了兩罐！

一枱十人吃得很高興，大家都說幸而及早走人轉戰不倒翁，又可俯瞰維港景色。我們沒有叫海鮮，十人結賬也不過三千多元吧了。

席間有他日有長俸的政府公務員，我們說笑，他日老了出來吃下午茶，我們這些沒長糧的，要靠有長糧的請客關照，然後連保險界女強人都說：不過我唔要食力奇！

＊七友都說我近日少寫了blog，上次和她們聚會之後也沒有寫，有點懶吧，其實每次聚會都有很多話題和笑話可以放上來的 :)

Today's Late Lunch

2011-12-17T17:52:00.001+08:00

I

2011-12-17T15:13:00.001+08:00

隨意看手機上I字頭的歌，有這些：

I am me once more
I can only be me
I can't be with you
I can't hear the music
I can't make you love me
I don't like it like this
I don't think so
I just shot John Lennon
I know you by heart
I like the way
I really want you
I still do
I think I love
I thought about you
I wandered by a brookside
I want candy
I want to be loved
I will always
I will be
I wish I was a single girl again
I would like to call it beauty
I wouldn't need you
I'd do it all again
I'll be waiting
I'll be your man
I'll take everything
I'm a lonely little petunia
I'm all over it now
I'm scared
I'm so lonesome I could cry
I'm still remembering
I'm you
I'm yours
I've got you under my skin

周五幾則

2011-12-16T11:12:00.001+08:00

WebMD在facebook上一段：A few years ago, research suggested your friends influence your weight. Now, a new study says your early-life family habits play a bigger role in your current eating habits. So who do you think influences what you eat? Your Mom when you were 5 years old or your BFF now? ~ Adult Obesity May Be All in the Family

真的嗎﹖我一直相信基因的影響最大，總有些人天天大吃大喝又不多運動還是骨瘦如柴。不公平的，當然不公平，鬼叫老豆阿媽易肥 ;) 不過如果如文中所說，應該是小時候父母的飲食習慣影響也很大。

Top 20 Best Movies of 2011 ~ 只看了四齣，今年自HKIFF之後都看少了電影，荷李活片及港片反而相對上看得多了一點，因為不用用腦。看過的四齣： Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes, Midnight In Paris, Super 8和Crazy, Stupid, Love。要我揀全年最喜歡的廿齣當然不同了。法國電影節看了兩齣，都打算寫寫的，這個周末吧。

還有，是日早餐：

浩大工程

2011-12-15T08:12:00.001+08:00

三個蘋果三個雪梨，然後一大堆早已準備好的湯料包括豬肉杞子蜜棗沙心（？）etc etc(當然是老人家的關照了），這個浩大工程終於完成亦非常滿意，蘋果和雪梨可各減一個。

就是因為工程之浩大和令人分心，焗爐裏的羊扒overdone了。 :(

是日早餐

2011-12-14T10:24:00.001+08:00

Marks & Spencer的即食麥片，$16，三百多calories。味道不錯。

我blog終於換了新衣，不過其實不太喜歡，但又真的找不著喜歡又合用的，換一次template大費周章，很費時，有時間再找過了。有一堆電影文章連結還未貼上，遲點再攪。

不經不覺又聖誕了，時間過得超快。是時候Christmas shopping。

眼睛狀況好了很多，醫生說這星期後可以戴回隱形眼鏡，不過以後我會多戴眼鏡的了。

好的同事好的上司有時真的不是偶然，都遇上了，算可喜可賀，要感謝神。

約了友人yellow line吃日式燒肉，不過一小時很趕啊。

*blog的template移哂位，睇怕要換換衫喇。唔知係咪因為blogger幫我哋upgrade咗有個手機版呢。用手機睇我個blog宜家易睇好多喇。

食粟米

2011-12-05T19:24:00.001+08:00

你是一行一行的咬，抑或像咬蘋果一般一口一口的咬？

我是咬蘋果一樣，母親和姊都是一行一行的咬。她說她們吃得整齊。

2011-12-03T21:40:00.001+08:00

看完我的眼科醫生，發現有血管增生現象，醫生吩咐要暫停戴contact lens直至另行通知，非常沮喪。

「對眼咁緊要，緊係唔好戴住啦！」

「我知，不過戴眼鏡醜樣嘛... 」

「又有老公又有份工，洗乜要咁靚？」

俾佢笑死。

2011-12-02T20:55:00.001+08:00

那天約了兩位bloggers午餐，我又吃日式燒肉了。

生手

2011-11-30T18:33:00.001+08:00

話說要入廚煲湯，為省時間，買了$29.5一包的prepacked湯料，另買一包$20左右的豬肉。生手就是生手, 切合掌瓜也可以切損手指頭，真可憐。不過起碼有點湯水，某人真幸福(不過身在福中不知福﹒﹒﹒我爸媽也從未喝過我煲的湯啊！多年前曾嘗試煲粥給父親可惜非常失敗，一大煲鹽水一樣)

羊扒某人先醃了，放入焗爐便可，好味。

光顧過Frites Belgium on Tap多次，都喜歡它的蘋果味啤酒，不過暫時仍未找到同一品牌的。在City'super見有類似的買來試試，味道始終不及Frites的好味。Apple味的還可以，Honey味就太啤酒味了，不喜歡。

2. Gap今日開幕喎，近年每次返北美去Gap都會買牛仔褲的, 不知香港的Gap牛仔褲款式可會也那樣多？

3. 法國電影節是完全忽略了。Booklet拿了也未詳閱，其實應該有時間去看的，不過下班後去看我怕太累了，近月應該錯過了好些佳作。嘩，原來有Claude Chabrol回顧﹗HKLGFF和Jewish Film Festival更不用說了。

4. 上星期和母親去了看50/50，不算非常好看的一齣，就是可以拍得好一點的電影吧。可以更好笑更感動人的，就是這裡欠一點那裡欠一點。

5. Have a great weekend!

減

2011-11-23T10:08:00.001+08:00

前兩天想起要減肥，忽然想到一個簡單的道理。其實減肥之所以能夠成功，主要都是靠節食，也就是比平日吃少一點吧了。吃少一點，不是要做多一點(運動除外，不在這個道理之內)，應該不是太難的。不須去努力付出什麼時間或氣力或鍛鍊，就是少做一件事情 — 吃。為什麼會比努力讀書或工作難呢？

好的，就用這個想法出發。我的不知第N次的減肥計劃又要開始了﹗

來佬餐廳

2011-11-21T16:00:00.001+08:00

看過廣告又聞說餐廳永遠都要排隊，周日興之所致九時多才去完全不用等候便有卡位了。

說是懷舊，不過裝潢未算完全的懷舊，尤其是那牆紙，非常不配襯。

服務一般，尤其遇上一個騎呢侍應，食物倒算滿意，可以再來，價錢也是意料之內。

乳鴿不錯：

雜扒價錢和份量不太相稱，而且味道很一般，下次一定不叫這個：

焗石斑飯，評語是很不錯：（不過上菜時白晢晢不太吸引的，要求再焗香一點，怎料不消三分鐘便回來，明顯用「火炙」方法，所以有賣相沒真正效果）

田螺：都可以，不過金雀比它做得更好

有啫喱吃令人高興，最滿意是有花奶，如果杯子更懷舊會更好：

奶茶令人失望：

朋友的那些年

2011-11-18T15:26:00.002+08:00

相信周末效應大家的心都不在工作上了。和加州友人閒聊，說起那些年，然後談到他的那些年女孩在他城裏遊玩著，怎樣怎樣。

「漂亮的嗎？結了婚有孩子的吧？」我問。

然後他whatsapp了她的照片給我，我也在facebook上找到她。

之後我倆便在whatsapp上來來回回鬧著玩說如果她有多少分我應該有多少分了... 非常攪笑。

對，都說是那些年嘛，就是有那些年的不同，正如柯景騰說沈佳宜都只不過是比班中的女孩漂亮多一點點而已。

以下節錄我們的對話:

if i m 70 points, she is 50 ja woh... or 55 max :)

60

that 10 points is becos of na xie nian :)

i give 71

more than me?!!?!??!?! no f***ing way! then i m 85!!!

hahaha you 72

86!!!!

更瘋的對話不收錄了... :)

真的啊，那女子一點都不漂亮的﹗都說每個男人心裏都有一個沈佳宜，她們都幸福，因為即使不再漂亮，在那當年的小伙子心裏，永遠都是最漂亮的。

BB Cream 推介

2011-11-17T09:41:00.002+08:00

一直未用過BB cream因為怕會阻塞毛孔，那天上網找尋一下，發現Missha在排行榜上居頭三位之內又言coverage好得來不會阻塞毛孔之類，於是膽粗粗跑去看。

化妝小姐當然長氣，有她說沒我說，不過她沒有一味推銷最貴的一種給我(Missha BB cream有很多款)，價錢又非常相宜，便買回家一試。怎知真的愛上了，還推薦給姊姊用，她有試用裝，用了也讚不絕口(嘩，幫人賣廣告﹖)。

不過的確，coverage很好，不厚也不算太薄，厲害是放工時也不多用補妝，但用了兩星期皮膚都不錯沒有出暗粒，價錢更是其優勝之處。比正在用的Dior Prestige及By Terry都便宜許多，效果也可以媲美這兩品牌，皮膚乾用了一天也不會出現乾燥狀況，真的值得一試。

還有還有，有SPF的，不用另搽防曬！

*另有專為遮毛孔及皺紋的BB Cream，聞說效果不錯

閒話

2011-11-16T16:41:00.003+08:00

我們一眾網友喜歡用google reader互相分享讀過又喜愛的網文或文章，怎料前陣子Google一下子取消了該功能，大家都十分沮喪。如果一向有留意我blog sidebar都會發現那個share box已經沒有更新了，實在淒涼。

越說減肥便越肥，有點苦不堪言，究竟要少吃多少才可以減十磅啊﹖！（我知我知3500 calories = 1lb，不用提我了...）

其實少寫了blog都知道少了人來看了，不過著實沒太多閒暇打理這裏也沒辦法。隔一兩天寫一點還可以的，都見有時我只貼一張相片分享分享總好過什麼也沒有。

跳舞課仍然是沒多時間及氣力去上，不過一星期有一天午飯時間可以去上課做點伸展運動也算好了。其實真的很想一星期有一兩天運動或做Yin Yoga，但好像時間未能配合。

手機上的遊戲仍然是Wordfeud﹑Word Pops﹑推銀等等，有興趣和我玩Wordfeud的來找我啊，username是maddoggish。

其實要寫要說的可以有許多，一時間不知道從哪裏開始。這一年過得不算很快，但又好像不久已經十一月中旬了。期待的聖誕節快到，今年真的值得慶賀一番。當然首先要感謝神的帶領及供應，一點都沒有缺少。

改天回來再寫。

啤酒sudoku

2011-11-14T11:04:00.003+08:00

和母親去了Frites Belgium on Tap，當然會叫Lindemans的蘋果啤酒了。沒想到酒杯墊後竟然有sudoku玩！^_^

那個自己

2011-11-12T02:44:00.001+08:00

記得「那些年」裏地震後那幕，柯景騰在電話上對沈佳宜說：我也很喜歡那個時候很喜歡你的自己。

唔，想想我有這個很喜歡的自己嗎？好像沒有...... 或許我不喜歡自己？又或我喜歡自己，不過不喜歡愛上人的自己，真無奈。

那些年，我們一起追的女孩 You Are the Apple of My Eye

2011-10-31T17:12:00.007+08:00

都打算去看的，不過主動說要去看的不是我。有人說此片是男孩子才有共鳴，不是啊，我也被打動，哭了多遍，只是一邊哭一邊不明白自己為什麼哭。他笑問：想起以前那些男孩？沒有啊，真的不是那些男孩呢。
有讀女校的說沒可能有共鳴，我讀了十五年女校（幼稚園到中七），雖然我也深信讀男女校的會更有共鳴，但我覺得電影很動人。

青春就是荒唐無聊加幼稚，就是勇敢去愛，正如柯景騰說：我就是幼稚才有辦法追你這麼久！

忘了觸動多少次了，我不是那些會進影院看同一齣電影的人，此片也不會例外。不過回家路上找youtube看trailer也邊看邊流淚，和姊姊談起時我又忍不住再哭，為什麼呢，我也不太清楚。
一眾演員都出色，令好劇本更得到完美的演繹。要看啊！

忘了説，電影有點日本及韓國電影的影子，和以前看過各類的台灣電影不同。尤其是女主角有點像孫藝珍。

Crazy Stupid Love 滾搞了愛情

2011-10-28T16:38:00.002+08:00

有人要看因為見有Steve Carell想必是笑片，怎料沒想像中從頭笑到尾。對我來說「最大收穫」當然是有靚仔Ryan Gosling了。

其實劇情頗老土，沒有新意，亦有點浪費了幾個星級演員。尤其初段節奏頗慢，有觀眾看到打瞌睡。

又是那種情場浪子終遇真愛束手無策然後世界真細小竟然你就是他的故事。

笑料是有的，但不要抱著一心來笑一大餐的心態去看，感覺蠻不錯。

七個多月後的第一課

2011-10-26T10:07:00.003+08:00

說的當然又是芭蕾舞了。真的七個多月了，生有時死有時，呵呵，跳舞也有時。真的要感謝神，我又有心有力做自己喜歡的事了。

一早知道自己胖了不少，相信一看到鏡裏的自己必然慘不忍睹。沒估錯，果然驚嚇。同學及導師都問候：去了哪裡啊？都不錯啊，你沒有跳得很吃力。當我回應說：還可以，只是胖了很多時，沒有人說「沒有啊」時，我便更加知道︰我真的月半了許多！！！

上課前差點忙了怎樣紥我那隻又快又易的small bun，又想到會不會周身痛。最犀利是，我連大門密碼也記得！

今天起床後沒有周身痛，只是昨晚一邊跳一邊有點睏。Barre work時多次抽筋是平常時了。

離開時和同學及導師說再見︰see you next time! 她們都異口同聲︰next time?! not Thursday (or Friday?) 導師說︰don't tell me next year. haha! 當然我也希望可以多點回去上課了。

命

2011-10-21T10:11:00.002+08:00

那天和網友們聊到"條命生得好最緊要"。話說前陣子友人說"讀書叻條路都易行啲。"亦有人說﹕"第一份工好緊要。"我則認為條命生得好最緊要。

不是麼，有些人不用太辛苦，一生平步青雲，又或無風無浪，想要什麼有什麼。當然，即使條命幾好，人生中總有挫折及悲傷事。有人說七分命運三分後天努力，起碼我們都有點東西可以去做, 不致太灰。唔，又對。的確，正如我們會批評他人怎麼差勁，總會怪他們不夠努力不夠進取，假如都歸咎於"佢條命生得無咁好"，那便什麼也不可以怪罪他人了。

兩句

2011-10-19T23:24:00.002+08:00

"Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle." ~ Steve Jobs (source)

月初Steve Jobs離世，到處都鋪天蓋地地報道他的生平及語錄，其中這句雖算老生常談，不過值得一記。

要找到自己真正喜歡的工作真的不易，相信很多人一生都未必找到。應該說，工作不算討厭已經很幸運了。又或甚至是，有一份自己應付得來又不算令人"渣乾渣盡"的工作可能已經不錯。

不過真的，有時金錢不代表一切，一世流流長，工作的日子很長(除非你好命唔洗做)，每天工作的時間比睡眠時間多，如果工作令人感覺良好當然是錦上添花了。

Fall Colors

Autumn leaves, 1989.

最喜歡秋天，尤其是又紅又黃的葉。

Broadsheets and Tabloids

LOS ANGELES—Pershing Square.
In late summer, the unemployed fill the benches of the square with their old hats on, their collars tight around their necks, as though they sense the beginning of autumn and the coming of winter. They read the wanted ads, the sports papers, the illustrated magazines and reassure themselves, perhaps, that there really is some comfort, some hope, 1946.

這種景象，相信很難再會出現，無論世界任何一個角落。

Railroad Stations

NARBONNE, France—1969.

火車站及月台永遠都給人浪漫的感覺。它總比機場或碼頭浪漫及有意境。其實我一直都愛搭火車，穿州過省那種。

又來澳門

2011-09-21T17:27:00.014+08:00

沒想到竟然有時間/機會三十天內去了兩次澳門。

不過這次經驗告訴我們，以後最好不要星期二來，因為很多食肆都是星期二休息的。又或我們很喜歡的大排檔原來下午三時多才營業，不過賣完便閂檔的了，分分鐘每天只做數小時生意。人家真懂生活。

星期二的下午一共摸了三四次門釘，開玩笑說這天真沒有食神!

原來許久沒光顧的氹仔大利來記豬扒包星期二是休息的。門口寫著威斯丁及大三巴的則都有營業。於是浪費了八十多元的士車資，然後跑去威斯丁，可惜吃了個又貴又難吃的豬扒包，包是冷的!

要求弄熱店員竟然不太願意。
離開澳門前去了多人介紹的海灣餐廳，這間我們倒從未光顧過，食物不錯，不過乳豬一般。
炭燒魚。這個芫茜魷魚很開胃，英文menu倒是Squid with vinegar，沒有提到芫茜的。
因為整天都在吃，第一晚又已經吃了很喜歡的葡菜，所以這晚只吃了這些(還要打包回家再吃)，甜品則叫了個餅乾慕斯(木糠布甸)，不過我覺得我姊弄好吃很多了。
說回我們的酒店，是出發前在碼頭即時訂的，這回揀了價錢不錯的Ponte 16(十六浦)，包早餐。

早餐是自助餐形式，竟然有香檳! 看到鄰桌自由行男士一口氣拿了四杯...
款式很多，還有macaroon。第一晚還趕及到舊葡京的樂宮餐廳吃梳乎厘，有人覺得比太平館的更好吃。蛋味比較重。

One Day 情約一天

2011-09-18T03:03:00.011+08:00

其實入影院時連"One Day"是哪個演員擔綱也不清楚。昨天有網友留言問我看了沒有，我只好像略略聽過有此片，因為近日太忙，什麼也不知道。電影差不多開場時我才用手機上網看看imdb，知道是Anne Hathaway飾演。

電影改編自同名暢銷小說。

從來對Anne Hathaway沒有好感，亦不喜歡她，不過又好像看過不少她有份演出的電影只覺得她眼鼻口都過大，樣貌一點都不吸引。演技嘛，又不算特別出眾。

此片看的是情節、故事，噢，當然Jim Sturgess也蠻帥。
電影從1988年說到2011年。由男女主角大學畢業真正認識那天開始，直到這個年代。1988當然我還未念大學，不過電影中有一點我有極大共鳴的是Emma(Anne Hathaway)的兩套服飾。她和不太喜歡的男孩上街時的那條花裙加牛仔褸，正正是我在美國讀大學時曾經穿著的款式。還有她那件藍色旗袍，我看到時簡直感到驚訝，因為大學畢業禮時我就是穿了一件藍色旗袍(比Anne穿的長一點)。
算是一個令人傷感的愛情故事。

(spoiler alert)

我哭了四遍:

1. 當Emma和Dexter見面後Emma對Dexter非常失望。"I still love you, so much. But I don't like you anymore."

2. 當Dexter離婚後到法國找Emma時，她已經有個jazz musician的法國男朋友。Dexter不想和他倆一起見面，獨自遠遠望著Emma與Jean-Pierre時。

3. 悲傷欲絕的Dexter和父親一起渡過七月十五日的晚上。父親說: 你要每一天都像Emma仍在身邊一樣的活下去... 你看，過去十年我不是一樣這樣過?

4. Dexter和女兒跑上小山丘，那個當年他和Emma在"那一天"的小山丘。
很不錯的愛情故事。不過也有人覺得初段很老套，沒有新意。又覺得老外又怎會有這些細水長流的單純友情(最後轉化為愛情)的故事。

即使不喜歡Anne Hathaway，我也非常推薦這齣電影。

Trailer

Movie costumes

後記: 那個舊同學"搶人老婆"的一段也真的非常殘忍。末段只覺得男主角極度命苦。還有從當年叱吒娛樂圈到後來要在舊同學的公司幹活，果真令人沮喪。有時現實真的是一盆又一盆冷水撥過來的。

還有還有，原來導演Lone Scherfig(來自丹麥)前作有"An Education"。那看來An Education成績及深度比此片高一點了。

電影中畫面最美的一幕是黃昏時分二人酒後裸泳，很喜歡日落時天空的紫。

也喜歡用了廿多年的打字機和MacBook，雖然有點刻意，也反映了情感經歷了多個年頭。

Rotten Tomatoes只有37%。

菱角

2011-09-13T13:40:00.002+08:00

"食唔食隻菱角呀？"

"食咩菱角呀？"

"中秋食菱角架嘛... "

"係咩, 中秋點解要食菱角？"

"你竹升呀宜家？中秋食菱角都唔知... "

想來兒時也可能聽過甚至中秋也會吃過菱角，不過已經近乎全無印象。你們有多久沒吃過菱角呢？有多少人的家還會中秋時應節吃菱角？

上網找找才知菱角是涼性植物，有消暑清熱作用。據說小孩子中秋吃菱角會聰明伶俐。

昨晚吃了一點，味道似無味的椰子肉。

中秋的深夜, 在翠華喝了杯鲜磨粟米汁. 真的是原汁原味的鲜磨粟米汁, 沒有加糖或鹽. 感覺蠻健康噃.

雖然已是凌晨三點, 補祝大家中秋快樂, 人月兩團圓!

The Three Dimension Luck and Power Test

2011-09-08T03:59:00.000+08:00

You Are Balanced - Realist - Empowered

You feel your life is controlled both externally and internally.

You have a good sense of what you can control and what you should let go.

Depending on the situation, you sometimes try to exert more control.

Other times, you accept things for what they are and go with the flow.

You are a realist when it comes to luck.

You don't attribute everything to luck, but you do know some things are random.

You don't beat yourself up when bad things happen to you...

But you do your best to try to make your own luck.

You have a good deal of power, but you also know the pecking order.

You realize that working the system does get you further.

You know who to defer to and who to control.

When it comes to the game of life, you play things flawlessly.

陳皮鴨腿湯飯

2011-08-31T02:49:00.002+08:00

吃過四五次陳皮鴨腿湯飯, 發覺只可以光顧某老牌茶樓那些才像樣.

試過兩次光顧街坊茶餐廳的陳皮鴨腿湯飯, 那些湯都不夠熱, 鴨腿肉不離骨, 很難嘴饞. 而那家老牌茶樓的陳皮鴨腿湯飯則剛剛好, 鴨腿肉很容易便離骨, 又夠熱. 雖然我不太喜歡陳皮, 也覺得很不錯.

茶餐廳的陳皮鴨腿湯飯, 很難可以吃得自在又不出洋相的.

兩齣

2011-08-22T03:10:00.005+08:00

這個八月沒有訂Summer IFF的票, 即興看了兩齣荷李活片.

Rise of the Planet of the Apes (猿人爭霸戰: 猩凶革命)

比想像中好看. 相信都是男觀眾要看的多(他們都是小時候看過吧), 女的進場都是陪人看的吧. 故事情節算不錯, 節奏適中, 也有笑位. 一向對James Franco沒有好感, 這回看完會加一點分.
Larry Crowne (來佬奇緣)

剛巧有戲票換領快到期, 也想一看. 雖然一直聽到不少劣評, 不過有Julia Roberts加Tom Hanks, 都是為了看看他們吧.

故事簡單, 亦算老土, 橋段沒什新意, 不過就當娛樂一下.

即磨芝麻糊

2011-08-20T16:17:00.006+08:00

每年總會跑去澳門一兩次, 旨在吃喝玩樂. 有趣的是, 去了多年, 去了多次, 每次總發現一些未去過的地方和食店.

這回第二次踏足三盞燈, 發現這家發嫂養生磨房, 有即磨芝麻糊, 又有豆漿.

不大好芝麻糊, 不過嚐了一點也覺得不錯, 很滑又不太甜.
時為下午六時左右, 很多師奶幫襯的! 也有上班族騎著綿羊仔來買外賣.
原來澳門OpenRice也找到.

The Good Life is in Your Big Picture

You like nothing more than kicking back and relaxing. And you think you've earned it!

You really value your leisure time, and you are the type of person who pursues many interests.

While you don't think money will make you happy, it can keep you busy for a while... and that's appealing.

You're not ashamed of wanting the very best in life, and you'll probably get it.

What's In Your Big Picture?

Blogthings: We're Not Shrinks, But We Play Them On the Internet

Your Name is Black

Your name tells people that you are serious and sophisticated. Your name makes you seem like a total mystery.

You are elegant and a bit apart from everyone else. You are much more formal than those around you.

People see you as smart and together. You also come off as a bit eccentric, and others respect that you are different from them.

You can adapt well to most situations, but you never feel like you truly fit in anywhere.

What Color Is Your Name?

Your Surfing Habits are 50% Male, 50% Female

There's no way we can tell whether you're a man or woman.

Of all the internet users, you are the most broad based in your habits.

You use the internet for research and your career.

But you also use the internet to keep in close touch with your loved ones.

Do You Use the Internet Like a Man or a Woman?
