the moon

last night was the first time in this year i saw the moon in hong kong. sky’s never been so clear around here. any plan for the long holiday? nothing really. off to Mirs bay tomorrow, study LOMA, and visit shatin.

letter to the internet

dear internet,

sorry it’s been a while since i last wrote. ‘been lazy to update you…i got the chance now. nothing’s much has happened anyway.

i’m getting used to my new place at the office but it’s quite annoying that we’re facing the blank wall now and we have our back open to passersby which might not be good during relax times or when i don’t feel like working and just browse you…hehe

i’ve been doing my best to get on my LOMA module really but i hardly passed by chapter 3. i’m going to read a few of pages later. good thing, a 4-day holiday will be coming by the weekend and i’m hoping to have more of it. this friday, i’m going out with some friends in an island along Mirs Bay…some sight-seeing and maybe, hiking.

lately, there have been a couple of visitors from the philippines. at the moment, a colleague from makati office is in town with her cousin..and another colleague with her family toured around the past few days.

i’m also excited ’cause i’m going to have my vacation very soon! by the end of the month, i’ll be back in the philippines for a 2-week vacation…actually, i’m only off for 1 week, ’cause i have to attend a training the first week i’m back.

bye for now.

love,
jeremy

p.s.
the other day, i’ve been thinking of moving out and find a better place..but i’ve learned that the company arranged for my apartment contract until the end of the year…so i can’t move out sooner than that. well, i’m just thinking i can look around for better deals than what i have now. maybe, i’ll just stay here..it’s not bad anyway, it just seems to become smaller and smaller each day…hehe…also, i’ve just rearranged the room and a new member in the kitchen has been added. i bought a microwave. bye.

Study and Rest day!

had a few couple of pages of my LOMA manual…anyway, still more than a month to go before i sit the exam in makati. i also cooked a meal today…it’s beef and i almost burned it…hehe…and i’m going to have it for lunch tomorrow. it feels so nice to have this mid-week holiday; had the time to rest! but also a bit insufficient as i’m used to a 2-day weekend holiday.

late afternoon i went out for dinner with a friend, alex…’twas the first time to see her again after the lukechow band gig few weeks ago. i’ve learned she’s a very strict vegetarian! too bad i don’t know much restaurant here in causeway bay…let alone those that serve veggy…so we ended up in a restaurant at windsor house…and then some drinks in outback. maybe i’ll try to research for some more better places…

…so bye for now, go on for more pages before ZzzzZZZzzzz….

cheers.

Happy Ching Ming Day!

today’s a chinese festival day, Ching Ming. still no plans for this day, maybe i’ll start on my LOMA manual, and start watching on Alias season 4 too. have seen the latest of prison break and lost last night. lost is really an great show, the twists are really astonishing!

tourist’s photos…

a friend from singapore came to hong kong over the weekend…and we went to hong kong’s usual tourist destinations…ocean park, victoria peak,mong kok night market, etc..

here are some photos…

1st coke light in bottle i’ve ever seen..

April Fools

Happy April Fool’s Day!

pizza!

’cause yellow cab is nowhere to be found here…i had a pizza dinner from pizza hut!

i wasn’t really craving for it but i remember i’m scheduled to change ortho elastics tomorrow (believe it or not, i do it on my own)…so before the excruciating pain again, why not have something delightfully good…and at the same time, i’m tired of eating my own cooked meals…(yes, i cook here)

ok, i admit i ate a little vigorous…a bracket was detached out of its place. (second lower premolar) but i think that’s still an outstanding record considerating it was the first one in about three months of no check-ups!

by the way, with next elastic, stuck carrots would not be obvious.

kiddie mode

i’ve had a couple of collections before…that were all gone by now. i used to have coins from different countries and postage stamps…too bad i’m not that neat enough to have them ’til now. anyway, i’m starting to gather my new collection! and they are those small structural toys found inside these chocolate eggs called kinder surprise from ferrero.

i remember my aunt from germany always brought us these eggs when she’s having a visit in the philippines…and i’ve got a couple more when she went hong kong last january. good enough, you can also find them in groceries here in hong kong, but they’re the ones manufactured in argentina as oppose to the originals which were from germany.

and now…he can join the crowd!

stressed eyes…

i haven’t cooked any real meal for today. i even hardly get out of my room…only for spaghetti dinner in a cheap fastfood called ‘cafe de coral’ over the next block…where i feel a little obliged to go to ’cause it seems like i owe something in this food chain that have served as a lunchtime lifeline for me and a colleague last year…

blame alias season 3…had a marathon. i’ve watched about six episodes in a row! plus the latest episode, ep14, of prison break after its very long tv disappearance. and now i’m about to watch the latest episode of lost. so many amazing shows, too little time to watch.

the transfer

the email notice says that the relocation will start at 4.30pm…so before the moment that people will be walking around the office rushing you to move, i immediately transfered all my things which is nothing more than some pile of trash and scratches. after setting up the computer, i learned that there is still no network in my new area! alas! instant break….:-) so now, i’m here in starbucks, grabbed a frap…using this free internet….

anyway, later, i’ll be attending a ma-jong party. dinner and then ma-jong… though i don’t have a slight idea on how ma-jong works…maybe i could just leave early…and then head to lan kwai fong…i don’t know…

bye for now, my 20-minute is up.
