City Magazine

I am quite upset by the magazines in hk... almost all of them are SHIT! fucking damn shit! They are either like a shopping catalog or all about the celebraties... most of the photos are horrible. um.... yup this is not a news anyway... The only one I can find it done by heart in HK is the City Magazine. Life-style + fashion... a very common catagory for magazine. But you just find it different from the others.... Althought I just start reading it for a year or something...., it's already like one of my old friends.... :D
I can't believe I had missed it's 30th years issue T___T... but Jesse said he will show me later ^______^ thanks!! Yeah, I will go to see their exhibition for their 30's bday ^___^ I know I will have a great time!! :D
We really have not much choice... Hope that this magazine will last forever la...:D

Let's take some risks 2

Yup, just think that I should correct a bit of the previous post... The last risk I have taken wasn't quitting the job but extending the flight for a month. £500 debts + no income was what I've paid. Obviously I didn't archive what I aimed on. I didn't got a job for staying. It didn't help the relationship. But I've learnt a lot from Stephane. I've earned the memories between us. I've opened my eyes even wider. I understand myself much more than before. I took some more nice photos. I earned a lot of friendship (Bernard, Charlies, Richie, Gergory, Tina, etc~~~). I didn't expect they would treat me as good!!!! I've got the experience which I would never have if I just go back straight.

What stephane got from his risk to quit everything in Paris is also incredible. (Kinn: mememememememe!!!) He'd got the chance to work with the best animation companies and people in the world. He'd also got the memories with me. :D He'd got some more friends he would never have chance to make. He'd opened his eyes/mind wider, etc etc.... what he paid was just merely to experience some stress + a little debts.

We should change the definition of the word "RISK" in dictioary from now on. It is no more "exposure to the chance of injury or loss; a hazard or dangerous chance". It is no more "The possibility of suffering harm or loss; danger.", or " A factor, thing, element, or course involving uncertain danger; the danger or probability of loss to an insurer; the amount that an insurance company stands to lose; the variability of returns from an investment; the chance of nonpayment of a debt; one considered with respect to the possibility of loss: a poor risk." not all these shit. But it should be written as 1.the possibility of not archiving what you aimed, and also the possibility of archiving what you aimed. 2. the possibility of gainning what you didn't expect. 3. The force which can push you onto the next stage.

By the way, Stef, can you promise me something? next time I come back to visit you... can you please bring me to southern France? I do want to go there with you... (I earned the right to request something from you as well ^_^)

Ah indeed.... the last risk wasn't even extending the flight, but trying to take 2 hand luggages on board!!!! And I got so many things extra to bring back home. I learnt how much my friends love me (they wait for me in the airport for fucking long!!!). Well... what I paid was, I missed the good bye to Stef and all my firends T___T. I lost the jacket and the cap I love coz of taking too many things by myself. It doesn't seems be a good example :P... anyway... if I didn't take the risks... I would have nothing to say and write here... ^_^ so... let's find some risks to take tomorrow!

Let's take some risks

Read it from Appledaily...

To laugh is to risk appearing the fool
To weep is to risk appearing sentimental
To reach out to others is to risk involvement
To expose feelings is to risk exposing your true self
To place your ideas, your dreams before a crowd is to risk their loss
To love is to risk not being loved in return
To live is to risk dying
To hope is to risk despair
To try is to risk failure
But risks must be taken, because the greatest hazard in life is to do nothing.
The person who risks nothing,
does nothing, has nothing, and is nothing.
They may avoid suffering and sorrow,
but they cannot learn, feel, change, grow, love, live.Chained by their attitudes,
they are a slave,they forfeited their freedom.
Only the person who risks can be free.
Progress is made of risks. Men are made from risks!

um... The risk I have taken lately was quitting the job in London. And it made me really happy, made me free gave me a lot of memories. But I don't think I am at risk for the moment.... let's find some risks to take tmr! :D

Diary

This is probably the first movie I have seen in cinema by myself this year... um... If imdb have the record for this movie, I would rate it as 7. "Movie by Pang's brother" was the main reason to pull me into the cinema.... They haven't disappointed me so far... :D And I like the kind of movie they take anyway... the kinda story or topic they talk about always interesting me. Surprisingly, those young actors didn't disappoint me.... Maybe the whole setting and the mood being created help a lot. Well... I should still say it.. they have done a good job ^_^.

First week in HK

The first week in HK is not that great... still fuckin' hot... and humid... come on.... at the beginning of Nov... stilll 29 degrees!... what's wrong with it.. ?!
On the other hand... I found the people on the street looks even worse than I thought..... they all looks the same actually.... and the street and the shops look really similar to the mainland China's...
Nothing in the shops attracted me.... it is so horrible for someone love buying as much as I m...!

The Prestige (2006)

Yeah I just like Christian Bale!!!! he is always cool!!!!!~~~ I was so surprise when I see him in the movie. I didn't see anything about the movie before going into the cinema :D:D haha.... The story was great! The director is the one who shoot Memento... and surely it's up to standard.... Magic, such a wonderful topic! and he just make it wonderful! The art direction side was fantastic! Although the lighting things was a bit strange in the scene where the scientist was inventing the machine to transfer the object from one side to another. Let's go to the link and see more review la... what I can say is... I love this movie... and I rated it as 9 lerh!!!!

Love is the Devil (1998)

I would say... if you never see this movie, please find it and watch it seriously... Why I watched it was only because it is a movie about Francis Bacon. I went to the Tate Modern before coming back to HK and saw quite a bit of his works. I really like his works and his name, haha. Visually, it is just amazing!! The director play with a lot of camera angle + reflections, applied quite a lot of experimental effect (optically). Maybe I didn't watch the movie detail enough... haha but I just love it. I think if I have to direct a movie, I would do similar thing. And also, I do like the soundtrack! See other review~

The conclusion is, all movies about artists are good (another great one was Frida. Although I don't like her work, the movie was very good!) :D. So far, I still haven't seen any movie about artists that are not doing good... maybe people doing this kind of movie are all putting heart into doing the movies or they must like the artist. Or, maybe I m just simply lucky :D...

Movies I have seen on flight

I have watched a couple of movie on the flight during the 11 hours journey, coz I couldn't really sleep on the flight... The seat on Virgin are just soo narrow...

Pirates of the Caribian (I didn't finsih watching it indeed... just didn't want to watch it in such a tiny screen)

X-men (6.5, I don't hate it indeed. The special effect there are nice, although I couldn't quite sure in the small little screen :P. The story can't be amazing for this kind of movie anyway... um... it is just simply not my type of movie... 6.5 is the rating for something I can't really judge, haha)

The Devil Wares Parda (6, who told me it is not bad?? honestly, the story is pretty shit. And, who told me Meryl Streep had a perfect act? I am sure that is not her best and not even called good. The only thing I think is good in the movie is the stylist... It was just brilliant! But unfortunately, it isn't enough to make it a good movie.)

The Omen 666 (didn't finish coz of the flight was arriving, but I think it is not a bad movie, until what I have watched. The story is not bad)
haha... maybe I have watched one more movie there... but I can't remember lo... maybe thats not quite good as well.... :D

At the airport!!!

T______T left the uk finally.... In the last day, in the airport, It was so incredible!!! First of all, sorry to Sing Jai, Charlie, Bernard and Stef... I didn't say a proper goodbye to you guys although you were kindly going to the airport with me... I am truely upset with that... But please forgive me ^_^... I think if I didn't go that very moment... probably I couldn't get through.
I was extremely lucky indeed. At first... since I wanted to trick the check in counter as usual, I didn't take my heaviest hand carry luggage, where I put my air ticket printout there, to the counter.

The security stopped me in the massive queue and ask me to show the ticket... and I said, I thought I don't need to bring it with the eticket. anyway... He directed me to the self-checkin mechine... but it didnt work neither coz I hadn't got the ref. no. :P and finally he let me queue at the primeium counter!!! where only 1 people was queuing hehe... I got that quickly and he just let my 33Kg luggage pass without a word... and I also checked-in my portfolio tube!!!

The story just started.... since he told me it is very tight about one hand luggage ONLY on board, even my portfolio, he adviced me to put inside the paper bag...-_-... I started worrying about my backpack... I saw that nearly everyone was bounded back by the departure staff due to their hand luggage policy. I had been super scared and almost lost my mind...!!!! I had a dinner with them without my mind~~ I couldn't control myself thinking of the departure thing.... T___T.... Once we had finish the dinner, I suddenly find myself running to the departure gate without talking to anyone!!! When I found that I was running, I was already half the way there indeed... I didn't talk to anyone and keep on running. Obviously, I was stopped by the staff. I guess my face was showing myself very worry... she seems to be really listened to me but she still not let me in. Of cause I couldn't put all my stuff into on bag... She said actually the backpack is already too big to take in, even if she let me in, the staff inside would ask me out anyway. I asked her to let me try. Suprisingly, she really let me try and I heard that all the peoeple after me were screaming of unfair~ Another staff tried to stop me indeed... but the one I talked to maybe just wanna show that I would fouced to come out anyway, she insisted to let me pass through...

I walked into the queue for checking passport with a "not up not down" mood. and suddenly remembered I didn't say a proper goodbye to everyone... I kinda wanna shout to them but actually I couldn't coz of my situation... Waited for 10 mins, it was my turn to get in... but suddenly a gourp of people with wheel chair were passing through. I guess they did help me a bit... The lady who check the passport kinda lost her concious before checking mine. I put down my paper bag, gave her my passport, gave her a smile and she didn't realise anything wrong. She gave me a smile back and let me through... The whole thing was incredibly smooth and I took my bag and go very quickly... wooooo~~ and I pass!!!! even the staff who put the luggage into the X-ray mechine didn't ask me a word... he actually asked those people before if they have only one luggage.... but anyway, I passed through all gate and found that I had given Stef my phone card and I couldn't call anyone to tell them what I had done... can you imagine how my feeling was.... missed the goodbye and just had such a dramatical things happened...! I needed a breathe... I needed to talk.... um... but no one... just on one.... oh... my poor luckiness.
