The Chinese . . .

Under the lately economic crisis, lots of country poured money just like dumpling wasted water into their own stock markets, in order to stable it a bit. The America was the pioneer in this kind of action, and it poured 40 Million (USD) out of the government saving. Afterwards, other countries followed.

The higher officials of the Republic of China kept saying that the economic crisis didn't scratch China at all, not even a bit . . . Yeah right my ass! From the news, factories were closing down one by one. Moreover, I read a news that the Chinese are gonna pour 4 Trillion into its market, which will be the biggest pour every in the world history!

Yeah my ass, f__king Chinese! Keep lying, keep acting, keep fooling the wise with your dumb stupid moronic face-saving words. The rest of the world are smart enough to "believe" in you!

I love the America

The America is a place full of hope. Anything can happen in there. The first black American president was finally born. What's left is a female president, and I can foresee it's coming sooner than we can notice.

To me, as an American. I am super proud of my right to vote. Voting for my president. Voting for my future. Voting for my dream.

I love the America

Dog-Shit Luck

I am not anyone special nor successful, but I have dog-shit luck (Chinese phase for a damn lucky person) in my life.

I was brought to the America in 1994. My family skipped the Asian Economic Crisis in 1997. I graduated in 2000, which is right after the I.T. Crisis, but I found a not too bad job in The New York Times. In 2003, I was working for the New York Post, when Hong Kong was under the SARS attack. I came back to Hong Kong in 2005. I worked for the Hallmark Cards for 1 year, then I moved to China. I moved back to Hong Kong in 2007, right after my returned, China released a new labor law, which nearly killed 1/3 of its factories in the Southern part. I jumped out of the Production/QA area to the academic in 2007. After a year of suffering, I am now upgraded to a better contract, which stabled me during the World Economic Crisis from 2008 - who knows how long it will be.

In my opinion, I don't believe the crisis that we are facing would last for 2-3 years only. You may say that it's a new era, and we can't refer to the old American history. Yeah, that might be true, but I tended to believe and to anaylsis with root and ground. If the America took 20 years to overcome its last Great Depression by fighting in the WWII, then this time the whole world may take >5 years to overcome "the economic crisis that no one have seen before". I hope not to, but we might ended up in war sooner or later. I believe all humans are evils. We gotta to whatever we have to do, in order to survive and to achieve more than surviving.

I hope I am wrong upon my message above. If I were right, then I hope my dog-shit luck will be with me for my whole entire life.

Wedding Photo — Spring (Spring is the name of the photo company)

Finally after months of waiting, I got back my wedding photo today. Of course, I immediately retouched some of them and posted them onto both of my blog (this blog) and my facebook. Images below are some of those :) You Enjoy!

Connie And Bon's Wedding Photo by Spring

First of all, I started the series with a lovely Connie image.

I love the four images below a lot. I love to be an asshole, which the images totally reflect my cheap and asshole-liked personality.

I love this dress a lot, as it's kind of Chinese mixing the western.

Don't you love the two backgrounds below? It's hard to get such scenes in Hong Kong. This is the reason why I went photo-shooting with Spring.

I on purposely making myself as a background human prop, in order to outstand Connie.

The photo part is done, so what's left is the . . . read wedding on 11/29/08.

Perspective Change

I started teaching university when I was 25. It's been six year . . . I always kept reminding myself to take a step back and not to waste any personal caring upon these young comers. Friendship can be built, but only based on industrial related areas. I thought that I was strong enough to keep my thinking and self-promising, but once again proven that I was wrong.

In 2001, I didn't realize how much I love the America until the fall of the Twin Towers in the 911. I thought that I was a Chinese with a deep Hong Kong root, but I was totally turned over by my self-inner feeling. Currently, the America is facing another challenge. AIG has been disolved. The America is heading towards a Mega Depression . . . I called it Mega Depression, as mega > great. Great Depression happened during the 20's. I am worried. I feel that my home country is suffering. I am in deep sorrow inside my heart. I am hurt and unhappy . . . I am an American-Chinese!

Lately, I kept thinking how bad the situation is. Moreover, I even worry for all of the soon-to-be graduates. As their lecturer, I totally understand that I should keep myself a step back and not to over pay personal feeling on them, but I couldn't help it. Once again, I disporved myself. I worry for the coming depressed market. I worry that most of them cannot be what they want to be, I am sorry for them.

Life is strange. What you are deeply believing in might be changed one day. Maybe, this is what people called, aging . . . or a better term, maturing.

I Am What I Am!

Changing matures a person. Years ago, while I was still young . . . a teenage, I was blinded by the bounced Hong Kong environment. Believing in lots of stuffs . . . like forever friendship, stable parental love, fine living environment . . . It was like I was being protected by a circle of stableness. The world outside Hong Kong seemed to be non of my f__king business, and I can care less for it.

After the eleven years torturing over the America, I was matured by the America. Speaking in being matured may not be the exact phase, but I couldn't find another way to describe it. Put it this way, change smoothened me. With all of the comings and the goings, I realized changing is the only truth of everything.

I don't really feel that I am rooted to any special place. Where I like, there I go. I am not afraid of giving up all of the opportunities or whatever I have in hand for a new challenge. I did it before, I can handle it again later.

I don't think any relationship can last forever. Not parental love, friendship, nor couple love. I believe in treasuring in what's in hand right now, but not scare or afraid of losing at anytime. Lately, I realized that I don't have much feeling upon hatred, or I should say I don't have much feeling upon most stuffs. No point to hate or to fall in lovely deeply, as one day . . . you will die sooner or later even BeeBee will. It's like whenever you think that you have everything in hand, actually . . . all are not yours.

Never keeping feeling within myself! I am expressive. I express all my feeling and thinking without consideration at anytime and anywhere. I believe in the theory of "Right In This Moment - to do or not to do, that's it!" For Hamlet, he believes in "To be or not to be, that's the question." I totally disagree, as there is a time frame within the word, "be" and why the hell have to analyze what the inner question is. I don't like to carry stuffs forward to later, which conflicts with lots of the people with a deep Chinese background or mindset, but I can care less. I am what I am.

I love Connie, BeeBee, and CeiCei, but I am not afraid to loss anyone of them. As long as they are still being with me one day, I shall protect all of them in my own way! Live the day and f__k the past! Not being considerate? Who cares . . . actually I should say, I can care less for all of the comments from the "Whole Family Die" (Chinese slang) around me in Hong Kong. I will always act in my own way! The Bon way!

李碧華 and 陶傑

I don't read much, but I can't never resist to read articles from 李碧華 and 陶傑.

I started reading 李碧華 since my high-school time, which was kind of late already, as 李碧華 started her writing career in the 70's. If I were corrected, the first series of "Under The Lion Mountain" by the RTHK was written by her. She skillfully wrote out the pros and cons of the governmental policy and the daily lives of the usual Hong Kong citizens.

陶傑 is a famous scolder. He definitely western, but not blindly. From his articles, I can see that he loves the Chinese culture, but hates the Chinese style, attitude, and system. He likes up close and personal face to face fighting, which insults tons of low self-esteem Chinese, but . . . so what, who cares for those losers!?

李碧華 also scolds, but in a totally different style away from 陶傑. She is a lady afterall. She tends to hide her words behind narrative stories, just like the Da Vinci Code! Lately, I saw her latest article from the Next Magazine, which kind of shocked me, as she didn't in-code anything, but rather scolding obviously. Maybe she was way too upset by that particular incident, she was way too upset that she scolded all of the f__king mother of all of the f__kers!

Here is her article, which I have copied from the Next Magazine# 965. The copyright of the following article of course is owned by the Next Magazine.

Crossing The Big Gifts (Chinese Wedding Tradition)

Yesterday, I finally "crossed the big gifts". It's part of the Chinese wedding tradition. The groom has to buy a set of tradition stuffs, which includes dried shark fins, dried abalone, swallow nest, Chinese wedding bun and cake, and etc, and carry them to the bride's house . . . Yeah . . . it sounds easy, but actually it's not an easy task without a car . . . No matter what, I finished it. Actually not I, but we, as Connie and I. Without the helping, leading, and caring from my beloved Connie, the tradition will definitely murdered by me!

It was a tough job to me, as I don't support and agree with the Chinese traditional much, but I was glad that Connie and I finished it together.

I love you, Connie.

The World War III, WWIII Preface

When I was in college (university), I took a few classes from one of my admiring professors, Prof. Lee. He is a Korean. I learnt my Chinese and Japanese political and historical knowledge from him. I also took a Bible class from him, as he has a PhD in Bible Study, Masters in Asian Culture Study, and Bachelor in Economic. We discussed and shared our sights of the world from all kinds of perspective including from the religious point of view. He advised me to prepare for the World War III, WWIII. He deeply believed that I can see and experience it in my life time.

A person can be native, but not ignorance and shallow. I do believe in the WWIII. I believe that the WWIII will start from the Middle East, then will spread towards the European countries including France, Germany and Russia. The American will step their feet into the war. The North Korea will ambush towards the Oriental countries especially to both of South Korea and Japan. Then the China have to make a decision either supporting his communist brother country, North Korea or the turn its back to him, but no matter what . . . China will also ambush Taiwan once North Korea has taken its action. The America will also send troops against China to protect Taiwan. In this case, the Russia will also send troops to support China. So, the America has to face two wars at once, which it has already prepared. Finally, the World War III will end through a big giant nuclear explosion, which only a tiny small amount of human can survive . . . according to the Bible . . .

Of course the paragraph above is my person prediction. Hopefully, it won't be true. War isn't fun at all. I hasn't experience it yet, but I did feel and experience the pain under the attack of the 911. I was there . . . the painful memory is still inside me. The modern Hong Kong people (born after the WWII) are lucky enough to worry free from any kind of attacking. They don't have any idea what a war looks like. Their minds have never be prepared or think about it. Is this luck or is this spoil? I really don't know, but at least . . . I am different according to their standards.

During the China Olympic a few weeks ago, the Russia military stepped into Georgia. Of course, non of the Hong Kong people cares, and nearly half of the people have never heard of it. The world is now trying to sweet talk the Russian . . . Personally, I don't think it works. Would this incident be a preface of the World War III?

The Tailand Protest 2008

I bet the Thailand protest 2008 will end up in a bloody riot. It will end horribly with gunfire and blood. From the news, the Thailand officials claimed that they will not take any hardcore cleaning action by force. They will calm and cure the protest through peaceful talks.

To me, that's bullshit. I bet that a bloody human cleansing show is going to start in anytime. The protesters will be the starter of that show instead of the government. Why am I making such an interpretation? It is because I deeply believe that the government will sneak in some of their secret people into the crowded to cause an unwanted scene. The unwanted scene will then raise the anger of the protesters against the government. Then, there's the acceptable excuse to carry forward the bloody show!

Will it be true? No one knows, but I am betting on it! I deeply believe that all Asians are in-born with the "can't loss face" attitude. Will see, as there's a phase, "The show must go on!"

A Good News To Those Who Can't Choose, But Not Me!

I just got a phone call saying that I am being re-contracted to a two years term. They named it, NRP. F__k the asshole Lo Mong Dung! If not because of him, then the new comers such as me don't have to be re-contracting once every one or two year(s)! A two years term is actually similar to the single year term. Under this change of term, my salary hasn't been raised. I am still being protected by a joking health care policy without dental being included. What I do benefit from it will be my annual bonus . . . not much might be 1/3 month to a whole month salary, which might barely cover BeeBee and CeiCei's living expenditures.

Before the f__king Lo Mong Dung era, when we were still being ruled by the Royal Crown Empire, the contract term was much better. It's a life-time term with a much higher salary, better health care plan, and more vacation days.

After the f__king Lo Mong Dung messed around at the Hong Kong playground, everything collapsed. Lo Mong Dung tried to cover his fault by decorative excuses such as . . . Oh~~~ it's the world wide economy, it's a new culture, it's a new environment! We gotta shut the f__k up and accept it just like a mother f__ker licking an antique grandma pussy, go in deep, taste the juice . . . we-Chinese are hard working lickers that don't mind drilling all of the dirty mines! (No wonder why there are tons of Chinese drillers being drowned at the illegal flooded mines each year!)

Maybe it's a Chinese culture, all Chinese leaders love to brainwash their followers with lovely verbal phases. For example, due to the Face Saving Policy, the China officials expelled all of the Olympic coliseums builders from Beijing City once they have finished their projects. They tried covering their anti-humanity act by a decorative announcement . . . "As a modern educated Chinese, self-sacrificing is necessary in order to form a greater China!" Yeah, my ASS! It's a communist party with a 5000 years root of Confucianism, so what can I say!?

To me, as an American Chinese, I don't believe in any kinds of brainwashing. I only look at my long and short term benefits. I am gonna pay two more years in this organization. If they sponsor me for my PhD, then I will stay longer than that. If not, two years later, I shall return back to my mother country, the America.

My Dreamt Girl

These days . . . I am feeling strange that I kept seeing a girl or actually a lady in my dreams. It's been three contiguous nights. I told Connie, and she fooled around by saying that I stepped or BeeBee peed on something somewhere . . . You know, the most of the Hong Kong style Chinese believes in the speaking of God and ghost. To me, I don't think that's "HER" avenge, as I remembered all of the dreams were kind of romantic.

She was slim, not too tall. She has her hair up to her shoulder. Figure in a fine proportion. Not too beautiful, but appealing. Oh . . . yeah, she was an oriental. She was a nice person, indeed very femininely kind.

I couldn't remember the dreams of the first two nights, but only the last one. Let's cut to the chase, in the last dream, I shot her . . . in her belly! It was a bullet (not cum) from my hand gun! I know some of you might think of a wet dream! No, it's not a wet dream at all! She was wounded, but still she smiled at me sweetly. Suddenly, I felt that I have a crush on her. I kissed her good bye. No, she wasn't dead, but just has to take the elevator down back to where she came from or a hospital . . . who knows? It's a dream only.

I tried to recognize her face on street for the past few days, but it's hard. Connie must smelt something's burning, she asked me for $5000.00 (HKD), in order helping me to beat a lesson of vegetarian food (Chinese slang). Oh well~~~ who knows what's really going on?!?!?

愛吃的女人

Don't know why, I am filled with my hyper blogging mood. This will be my second article within a single day! Yeah~~~

I have just read an article, 愛吃的女人 from 蔡瀾 in the Next Magazine# 963. He tried to link a girl's appetite to the girl's personal attitude, cute level, attractiveness, and educational background. I loved his theme and totally agreed with his hypothesis below:

Beautiful Girl + loving to eat = Sexy
Beautiful Girl + not loving to eat = Still Sexy
Ugly Girl + loving to eat = Happy to eat with, but no eye see.
Ugly Girl + not loving to eat = Kick her out of the restaurant.

Of course the above four hypothesis are only 蔡瀾's perspectives and comments, but they're kind of true. I am glad that all of my ex and my current gf love eating. Moreover, they can eat! I do enjoy hanging out with girls like these. I am even happier spending the rest of my life with them . . . Oh, I meant one of them. Of course, I want all of them . . . but for this life . . . one is already more than enough :P

The New War

I don't know how many of you think positively upon the current Olympic Game. I did have some precious moment by watching it, but overall it didn't give me a sense of harmony, as the Olympic should be. I feel that the Chinese treat the Olympic as a World War III. They applied the Olympic Game to claim for their importance, existence, and hierarchy of the world.

The Olympic Game is the best opportunity to wash off their historical shame from the World War I era to the Open Door Policy era. Moreover, it is also a legal way to defect/revenge those who had step their feet on China before the World War I. Chinese, who are living within the land of China have low self-esteem due to their history and their communist governmental structure. Some of you might try to correct me that China has changed from communism to econ-communism . . . bla bla bla . . . Son, let me tell you, econ-communism applies to those who have a non-Chinese nationality only. If you are a Chinese, then you have no choice, but to stay within the communism system.

Art Perfects Us

Art isn't realistic, but it exceeds. Art is a philosophy. Art has rules and boundaries, but they can be probably twisted. Art is a thinking. Along the thinking, the approaching path will be lightened up. Art is a believing. Believing in a concept, targeting it with faith will lead to the road of success. Art is a challenge. It's like driving on the wrong direction on a busy highway. Painfully crashing falls upon in every single second. Living with it, one day the revolution may come. Art is a loving caring. It cheers the world, and equals all man kinds.

A Chinese art professor painted a few coliseum builders. He auctioned the painting. He treated these real-life models back to Beijing for the Olympic Games, sight seeing, and Peking Duck by the money he earned from the auction. All of these builders were being expelled from the Beijing City by the Chinese government, after they have finished their contracted jobs. They were the one who built all of the facilities, but they were being expelled from the city due to the Chinese Face Saving Politic.

Under the love of art, they were being invited back to enjoy their contributions.

My lovely Baby

Lovely baby sleep in peace,

Resting thy arms upon me.

Closing thy eye, I'll hold thy body,

I won't let go, my love with thee.

The Ugly Duckling In The New Era

The Ugly Duckling
(The following two paragraphs were copied from the Wikipedia, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Ugly_Duckling)

"Once upon a time, there was A mother duck hatches her eggs and, while most of her ducklings are normal, one is grey, too large, and too clumsy to fit in among the others. Though she tries to accept him, the entire barnyard realizes that he simply does not belong and after a period of harassment he leaves to fend for himself. He is sheltered by an old woman in her poor cottage, but her cat and her hen will not accept him and he is forced to set off once again on his own. He wanders for the entire summer and fall, for no one will take him in, and he nearly freezes to death in an icy pond. Though he is rescued by a human, he cannot live in captivity, and he returns to the wild.

By the end of winter, he is miraculously still alive. He comes to a pond in a park or garden, where beautiful white swans are swimming. He is drawn to their beauty, though he has no reason to think that they will treat him better than anyone else has. Still, he thinks, even if they kill him, he must approach them. To his surprise, the beautiful creatures welcome and accept him; gazing at his reflection, he sees that he too is a swan. The children declare that he is the most beautiful swan of them all, yet he is not proud, for a good heart is never proud. Because of all that he suffered he now appreciates his happiness so much more."

Yeah right, that was the story written by Hans Christian Andersen in 1843 . . . An old bedtime fairly tale . . . Actually, it's not a happy ending to me. Indeed, it's a terribly sad story. Do you know why? In order not to be pin-pointed, you gotta be an alien! A swan is an alien to a duck. Of course it will turn into a beauty afterall! What if the story were written in an apple to apple way? An ugly duck will always be an ugly duck no matter what.

Things will never change or be changed! If you want to be different, then don't be a human being, be a monkey or be a dinosaur. If you want to be different, then don't be a Chinese, be a British or an American! If you were ugly, you will always be ugly. Don't even dream of showing your face in public, your face f__ks up the perfect image of China!

Chinese For The Chinese? NO WAY!

I am now enjoying watching the Olympic Game from my lovely big screen TV at home. I have been sicked for days, nearly a week. I was supposed joining Connie this Saturday afternoon, doing some shopping with her together, but I decided staying at home.

I love watching the Olympic Game show for time killing. Seeing people jumping and running around is kind of fun. I remembered the last time I really spent time on it was the year 2000. I was still studying in the Rochester. That time I had my 24" CRT TV with VCR built-in right next to my Green and White Apple PowerMac G3 computer. I did my printing research work (along with playing the Diablo II by Blizzard Entertainment) on one side, and watching the game just by turning my head 90 degree to the right. I did have my good old times.

This afternoon, I watched the female basketball game. It was China VS Spain. I didn't pay much attention to it until I recognized one funny thing. The Chinese team's wearings are being sponsored by the Nike (US Company), and the Spanish team's wearing are being sponsored by the Li Ling (China Company, Li Ling was an athletic during the 1980's. He rocked the Olympic when he was first shown up in the 1984.) Li Ling retired after the game in 1992. Afterwards, he opened his own bland in the sport business, which is being considered to be a one of the top Chinese bland within the whole China. Of course, it would never make its way to the US, UK, nor the HK (As if the old Chinese slang, "I look dead at it").

China headed towards the American bland. I guess . . . its because they have been approached with tons of money being involved. Moreover, they want to state that China isn't anything within the second and the third world levels by applying the first world bland. So, who's gonna use the Chinese products (third world products)? There will be markets - the second and the third world, let them be! Chinese will NOT use any bland from the second and the third world countries. We (the Chinese) have our own pride!

The Older It Takes, The Better It Is . . .

I wasn't a fan of video game when I was in my high school and college period. Since my first NES (red white machine), I have only spent time doing the Final Fantasy VII. It was a great game. It's a RPG game, I love it as I didn't have to do it in a quick manner. In 1998, there was another great game rocked the world, Metal Gear Solid, but I didn't played it, as it's a new start up story, which doesn't has any history like the Final Fantasy, which has six histories before.

Since I had my PS3, I played more now than I was young. I tended not to go for the Metal Gear Solid series, but I bought myself a copy of the latest version, Metal Gear Solid 4. What can I say? After ten years of development, its storyline and its action rocked me. I would say that it's the best game I have ever played.

It's not like anything that has to rush through in a quick time, killing people without purpose, or doing stupid things without thinking. It's . . . a movie form: 1/4 time playing, and the rest is just sitting still watching the CG movie . . . it's a whole new culture.

Culture is the best word to describe these perfect games. A game would only turn into a classic, if it were good only. A class game won't last long enough to face the challenge of time and change. A successful game always turn into a culture under the treatment of time, which mostly take more than ten or twenty years. I love playing these perfect games such as the Final Fantasy, the Grand Therf Auto, Musou, and now . . . the Metal Gear Solid.

Yesterday, I found my Peach Blossom Garden . . .

Crossed the sea and the land, miles and miles of footage,
I kept searching for the Peach Blossom Garden.
I cared less for the talks and cold thoughts surrounding me.
Here I was searching for it.

Along a deep dark rotten passage that stunk like Detol,
I crossed along with my eyes wide shut.
Empty hands with a reckless mind,
Here I was . . . should I go or should I stand?

Crossing the gate with my face mask on,
Who would know what's going on . . .
My heart beat like tick-tat-tick,
Leaving is one of the common tricks, but I didn't pick.

Entered into a whole new world,
Brightness and calmness broke my anxiousness.
Taking an air breath of refreshness,
Here I was, the Peach Blossom Garden.

Bottom heart happiness and peacefulness were what I've found.
The atmosphere was made up of open minded speeches and thoughts.
Welcomed, respected, and accepted combined my good quality time,
This was what I was looking for . . . for my life time.

A young joyful sweetie came up to me.
Asked my name, and what I wanna be.
Being myself is what I am, and she agreed.
Shook her hand, Greenfield, what a name!

Leaving was not what I want, but it's a MUST.
Turning away made my heart more wanna stay.
Heading back to where my journal began.
My Peach Blossom Garden . . . is further and further away

Article 3 Under My Mood Shifted

No one likes what I like in Hong Kong.

I love being alone. I don't enjoy too much spending time on others. I am strange according to the Hong Kong people. I have a strange mind. The Hong Kong people around me kept saying that I am abnormal.

I am not insane. I just don't act like one of the Hong Kong usual. I don't follow trends. I have my own way upon all stuffs. I have my own thinking. I don't think Soft-Hard is cool. I don't enjoy the fantasized Hong Kong style love story. Things don't have to be in such a Hong Kong way. I don't believe that I am wrong to be such an outcast!

I am stressed. Of course I am! I am stressed for taking bus, MTR, and mini-bus rides to anywhere. I miss my old driving days. Commuting comfortably within my own personal tiny space surrounding with the nice customized Hi-Fi system . . . Hum~~~ Driving is such a pleasure.

I am stressed to be surrounded by lots of self-centered Hong Kong people, and trying to convert my thinking into one of them! If I rejected to be changed, then I am wrong according to the rules of Hong Kong! What the hell is going on? Is it 1984? Oh sorry, I am abnormal and wrong again, as most of the Hong Kong people don't know what 1984 is! They just know what's 1874 (A pop song from Eason Chan)!

Individualism is what's lacking. I feel that I am just like an ant routinely working my daily schedule. I gotta work something out. The surrounding won't even let you stop and rest for the weekends. You gotta think of something to do for the weekend, if you are living in Hong Kong. Get your ass business, don't stop! No one in the city knows what means by having a cup of Arabica coffee and/or a glass of Cognac in a nice sunny afternoon.

Tired, I am really tired.

The Hong Kong LIving Condition

I made my mind up. If I couldn't start my Doctor Degree within the next two years, then I am gonna forget Hong Kong forever! I WILL pack my stuffs and heading back to New York. I can let go everything for making myself feeling much easier.

Am I really hating Hong Kong, NO, I am not, if I were living on the Hong Kong Island side. The Kowloon side and the beyond . . . I don't have really good feeling, but they're just good for a day trip on my own car driving. Especially, driving around the poor areas seeing how people are suffering from the f__ked up heat.

The Hong Kong side was where I have my memories. I grew up there, I hate the Kowloon side and beyond. For the Hong Kong side, I like it a little bit better.

The Kong Kong Living Condition Map

The Last Man Standing!

I had a dinner with one of my old friends last night. I knew him since I was in primary 2. So . . . it must be for over 20 years. Seeing him didn't make me feel anything like warmth or really close. On the other hand, I always feel that we are apart further and further away from each other everything I hang out with him.

Honestly, I don't have many friends now. You may say that I am depressed or always being an ass, but I just don't feel like hanging out with most of my old Hong Kong friends. I don't know whether it's Hong Kong or my problem, but most of the people (male) are very comparatively money minded. Once they have tiny bit of extra to spend, most of the men would go hunting for nice asses. The broke would go to the MongKok bars, and the rich would go to the 30th floor (CoCo's Workshop, for those who read the Hong Kong newspaper will understand what I am talking about).

For the whole dinner, he just talked around who's in deep shit and who's f__ked up. He had never mentioned anyone doing better than he is. To him, marriage is for the losers. I deeply believe that he will get marry soon or later, but he is trying to be the last one. A kind of pride to him that I could never understand. Maybe this is what they called, The Last Man Standing!

As A Man . . . That's It!

If I hit the Lotto, I would break the money into four parts. Half of the money would go to my parents' accounts. I don't care for how they are gonna spend them, but just don't ask me for more no more. A quarter of it would go to Connie's hand. Same as before, I don't care for how she gonna use them. Just don't bother me for more. The left over would be mine . . .

First of all, I would buy two apartments one in Hong Kong and the other one might be in either ShangHai or New York. To me, New York is a better place, as the price is falling. Afterwards, I should be broke! So, I think I gotta change my plan of attack. Hum . . . I think I should only buy one apartment which cost half of what I have in hand. I don't need no fancy car, but just a decent one – Mercedes Benz C class or the SLK is fine. Lexus isn't a bad idea! Oh yeah, fancy car to me means . . . the SL500 and above. I would spend tons of money on all kinds of insurance and at least two college funds.

What's left over should not be much . . . so . . . might be half of the little left over would end up in some kind of long term investment such as land buying and/or long term funds. All of the left over along with my usual monthly salary would be saved in mine slavery account – my other half's hand. Cash in hand? NO, I don't need much. I would just ask for it . . . kind of like in the "eating soft rice" way, whenever I need it.

A man without planning . . . that's it. What you need is like me, finding a CPA as you other half. Then . . . that's it.

Hum~~~ Some Thoughts

My anti-blogging mood extended. I pushed hard get my ass back to update my blog. I don't know whether this is a kind of depression or just crossing my blue period. I do have any mood to speak about and to share my inner feeling with nobody recently.

These days, lots of shit happened . . . mainly from work. Oh yeah, partly are from "the other". I feel that what's surrounding me doesn't let me to quiet down. It or they just keep pushing me . . . stressed. In the eyes of others, they might feel that I am working for a relaxing job, but in the reality . . . who knows?

I got a job E-mail yesterday, saying that there is a post in the Manhattan, NY offering $80,000.00 (USD) / year. I wanna go back, I wanna take the job.
$80,000.00 (USD) / year = $624,000.00 (HKD) / year
$80,000.00 (USD) / year = $6666.67 (USD) / month
$6666.67 (USD) / month = $52,000.00 (HKD) / month

In the past, I kept calculating salary after tax. In the America, I gotta pay 33% tax, but in Hong Kong, I gotta pay 17% only. I thought what's after tax (the net) is the final answer to all considerations, but I was wrong. I was way too stupid in thinking so because the social benefits such as the FDIC, the Social Security and the Medical Care for the young and the aged Americans are far more protective to citizens than the f__ked up Hong Kong system.

No doubt that Hong Kong is one of the richest cities in the world, but its government is also one of the most moronic splendid one. I didn't insult it without a reason. For example, it gave $1,000,000,000.00 (HKD) to China for the earthquake rebuilding (Rebuilding what the f__ked!? There is no record in China upon how they spend the money. I deeply believe that a great part of the money will end up in rebuilding some of the higher officials' mansions with fully facilitated SM rooms for tons of their playful mistress). In the last week, the governor spent another $1,000,000,000.00 (HKD) for some short-term benefit programs, in order to pull his "man-gas" (Chinese, which means rating) up.

You see, under all of this stupid HK governmental management and the outside job attraction, heading back to the America should be my future personal goal.

Tiananmen Square protests of 1989

Nineteen years ago, it happened. The Tiananmen filled with college kids' bloods within an overnight. I was a primary 6 school kid in the age of 12 during the Tiananmen Square Massacre. I was too young to fully understand what has happened, but I witnessed it through the television screen.

Nineteen years later, which was last night, Connie and I joined the 19th anniversary candlelight ceremony to remembrance those who were murdered. We sat for an hour, listened to a few speeches and songs, and we left early.

I didn't comment much or respond to any of the "screaming". Deep inside my heart, I felt that . . . after all these years, it's the same old China. Yeah, people get richer, but the government and attitude didn't change even a bit. Human right? Forget about it. Why screaming for democracy outside the China soil, but not crying out boldly in the center? It was a waste of my time. I am an American Chinese. I fully understand that democracy won't appear just by a few sound of yelling or crying. It takes blood! It took tons of the American life to declare for independence away from the "What so" Great Britain. It took another a few tons of life to end the Civil War!

Even a fool knows that the richer the China, the redder it is. How much unfairness, stepped right of human, and bias judgment did it take for building all of the coliseums around Beijing to welcome the Olympic 2008? China is an Animal Farm! All creatures are equal, but some are more equal than others! As an American Chinese, I can care less and walk away. Let the pigs eat shit and die!

George Lucas and Steven Spielberg

I watched the Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull two nights ago. The forth one from the series. I think not only me, but all of the fans have waited for 19 years since the last one. In Chinese we say, “Wait until the neck has been elongated.”

I was a fan of Steven Spielberg years ago, but not lately. I don’t like his recent works, which always link to the “little green man”. I loved his movies, when he wasn’t that into the “little green man”, as his stories can be related to believes, religious, and space adventuring.

George Lucas, I grow up under his inspiration. I guess most of the boys in my age are all influenced by him. At least we played his computer adventure games such as The Indiana Jones and The Monkey Island. I admire this man, and he is my idol.

Afterall it’s not a bad movie, but most of the scenes were expected and not too surprising.

One Day

My anti-blogging mood is still kicking. I was complaint for not updating it as much as the past. As so many of you raised voices, so I have decided to write a short feeling, which supposed to be posted 1-2 month(s) ago.

I went to my best friend's wedding around 1-2 months ago. I was one of his "brothers" (Chinese thing). It was a tiring job, but I enjoyed it. We were close friends since the primary two. Actually, we went to the same kindergarten, but we didn't meet until years later due to different class settings

His wedding was wonderful, but a minor incident happened, which caused me to "think". A pair of separated couple met each other again in the wedding before the banquet started. After all these years, the lady married her Mr. Right and the man started a new life away from Hong Kong. Before the banquet, I realized the man's facial expression shifted, after he has heard her named somewhere around. After seeing her, he man's attitude totally changed. From their conversation, it could be recognized that the man is still caring for her a lot.

Should I say . . . it is harder for a man to get over with than a lady or the other way around? I really don't know, but at least I am certain for one thing . . . man with such an attitude is a total loser to me. I am a black-or-white person with no gray area. I am not young no more. I won't even spend a single second on recalling non-treasureable memory or moment. I rather treasure what I have in hand currently. As I know one day, when the time comes, they will be taken away. Connie, BeeBee, CeiCei, parents, apartment, liquors, youth, and even me will all be history . . . one day.

The Days Of Being Wild

Today is a nice Sunday afternoon, and I am kind of semi-drunk with a few glasses of XO. No, Connnie hasn't stopped me from pouring them into my empty stomach! We spent the afternoon at home with karaoke singing, which I haven't enjoyed for years.

I suddenly remembered my old days of being wild. I haven't fool around when I was in college. I did go clubbing and got drunk sometimes, but those were not my wildest days. I had my most wildest days by the end of being a New Yorker era.

I drank a lot. I did drink enough to decorate my apartment wall with empty wine bottles. One time, I was drunk with a group of friends. I didn't know what time it was. All of us were so f__king drunk after drinking at the Biney. We all just lied down flat on the Lafayette Avenue or the 6th Avenue (I really forgot which road it was). Aggie was the only person, who still managed to stand up "un-straight". She carried all of us into all of our cars. She started driving home, but I remembered seeing her driving in between two lanes. So, I asked her to stop the car by the side of the road, but she just stopped it in the center of a big avenue. We just stayed there for might be . . . 10 - 15 minutes, then I moved to the driver sit, and drove ourselves home. I didn't know how I could manage not to hit nothing at all, but I did drive both of us home, parked the car safely. By the way, I would never ever do this again in my life!!!!!!

After I have moved back to Hong Kong . . . put it this way, I haven't been drinking for at least 2 years. I somehow wanna get drunk with a group of drinking friend one more time. I wanna experience the wild days again . . .

A Bullshitted Story

Once upon a time, there was a little young man, who is good in nothing. He didn't do good in school, and was always being looked down as a piece of shit. One day, the little boy left his home town, he went to a so called, a dream-fantasy-land. Over there, he found his interest. He later tried turning his interest into his career. Unfortunately, he didn't, but at least his effort and his works were being agreed.

Fate always fools us. Somehow, the more we wanna get rid of, the more we are getting. The man ended up earning his living with his left over interest. He didn't actually do the job, but via teaching others. Funnily, he still being agreed and accepted by bullshitting others with what he has given up.

By the age of 31, the young man turned into a mid-age man. As he couldn't get rid of the joke made by fate. So, he has decided to pick up what he has left over again for making a masterpiece.

If he could success, then his job will be posted later in this blog.

The Slothful F__ked Up Hong Kong Police

I haven't blogged for quite a period of time. I just didn't have the mood to blog, that's it. I didn't mean to update it today, but I read a news, which upset me. So, I decided to express my anger via this narrow channel.

Two couple got into a fight at HungHum last night, the lady was over heated, ran off the pavement, and was hit at her head by a truck. The man just sat at the side doing nothing, but crying.

It's a simple story, but the interesting part was how it ended. It ended in a very unlogical way. The Hong Kong Police arrived and charged with the truck driver with causing death via dangerous driving! The driver didn't speed, how did he speed, as the accident took place at HungHum! The act of the f__king Hong Kong moronic police reminded me what happened to CeiCei and me months ago!

Folks, remember that the f__king Hong Kong police serves for the rich only, not for us. Before 1997, the last Hong Kong governor lost his stupid puppy, Whiskey, the f__king Hong Kong police force sent 100+ policemen searching for it at the Victoria Peak! You might say that's the old Hong Kong, but things didn't change at all. The policemen are still slothful and greedy. They just want to close all cases without any effort inputted.

The truck driver was the only victim from this accident. As the lady died right at the scene, the f__king Hong Kong police just want to turn in the truck driver for "the flat sacrificing" (Chinese).

Folks, I am telling you the f__king Hong Kong police are just a gang of low educated, slothful, greedy jerks, who just like to kill times with salaries. If you got into a scene with police arrived, then you better prepare yourself with your camera ready. Capturing everything, but say nothing at the scene! We have to right to remain silence, and they have no right to force even a sound out of us. If they threatened us, then the camera will safe us for any set up.

Be smart!

PhD Update

I have spoken my mind to my supervisor. I don't mind taking a PhD program at the WuHan University, as long as my tuition is being covered and I still receive my pay check regularly.

After 1997, the f__ked up Lo Mon Dong messed up the whole Hong Kong system. When my dad was young, the Hong Kong government flew him to England for a free whole year training with regular salary! Those were the glory days!

I am looking forward to take the PhD education opportunity. According to my supervisor, seems like it will be a part-time thing. I have to study and to work at the same time. It will be tough, but I am still looking forward to take it.

There isn't anything better than that out there anymore. Not within corporations, not within the Hong Kong government! The world has changed!

Just Shut Up And Go Licking Your Own Ass, If You Were Poor.

Tonight, I watched a show from the TVB. It was about the lives of the 1.3million poor people living in Hong Kong. According to the show, they have to contribute their whole lives to their jobs, but in return, they were being paid unfairly. For example, working for 80+ hours per week for $1000.00 (HKD), which is around $125.00 (USD). Some of them said that they had never been to any nice area of Hong Kong at all such as the Tsim Sha Tsui. Most of them didn't have time spending with their children, so that their relationship has been ruined . . . bla bla bla . . .

Honestly to you, it's all bullshit in my opinion. If you people think that Hong Kong is a way too expensive city, then just leave or go kill yourselves shitheads! Why they hell you have to stay in a city, but keep crying for being discriminated due to your poverty? If you have to work for 80+ hours per week, but still can't earn enough to survive, then for anyone with a normal IQ should smell something's cooking. Speaking in a nice gentle tone, it means that you are ineligible to be here. Speaking in a common usual tone, it means get the f__k off here, you rat! Just head back to where you were from! Don't you dare begging for mercy, and telling me how shitty you are! I can care less for junks like you guys!

I don't believe TVB putting such a show on air for humanity reason, but for its rating only. TVB is 100% commercial, if not for rating reason, why the hell they have to put such a show on!

I am not a rich guy. I work for my bread! I am quite lucky, as I don't only getting my bread, but also enough for jam and butter. If I want to, I am also able to get myself a can of Coke Zero. I am such a lucky guy, but does it mean that I have to share what I have to those moronic poors? Hong Kong isn't the America, where you are welcome for dream chasing! There is an old saying, "The American Dream!", but there isn't any saying, "The Hong Kong dream!" at all!!!

If you knew that you guys are poor, why the hell you still have to burden yourself by giving birth? What's the reason behind? You see, even the Hong Kong citizens quit having children for financial reasons. Moreover, having a job doesn't mean that you are contributing to the city at all. The Hong Kong government is stupid enough to provide a $100000.00 (HKD) tax allowance to all of the low income people. If you were protected by the tax allowance, it means that you are still a piece of shit even for having a stable full-time job because you don't pay tax at all! You are using my money for enjoying all of the city expenses such as the street lights!

A nice advise for all of the poor new Mainland China comers, get back to where you were from! Hong Kong doesn't welcome you at all. I don't want to waste my tax on supporting you. I don't even want to waste my tax on raising your children! If you have to starve to death, so be it. I deeply believe that some people are meant to be born to death! Don't think that I am such a cold hearted evil. Comparing with the actions of the greedy poor people trying to grab all of our rights and goods such as the uncontrollable illegal birth issue at our public hospital, grabbing our Hong Kong financial aid, and etc, I just realistically spoke my mind.

By the way, if you look closely enough, you can see that most of the poor family on the show actually are not that poor at all. They have TVs, radios, fans, dining tables, beds, and even computers with LCD monitors in their tiny apartment! I am not joking. I saw two LCD monitors in two of the self claimed poverty families! So, just tell me in common sense, how poor can they be actually?

Purely Love

Once upon a time, there was an ugly slothful asshole fell in love with a wonderful pretty lady. Within three weeks of time, he captured the lovely lady's heart in a very nasty way! How nasty? Oh my goodness . . . non of you wanna know about it. The lady treated him nicely with respect, only some minor attitude PMS problem, which is extremely usual among all other girls.

The asshole is just a very normal asshole with all of the common man problems. For example, he farted without mercy. He didn't enjoy taking shower or brushing his teeth. He didn't have a detailed financial plan. He loved staring at all kinds of young to sexy mid-age girls. He loved downloading all kinds of Japanese 4th son. Just think of anything nasty stuffs that men do, so he does.

What on Earth would such a pretty lady being so faithful to such an asshole? No one knows! Might be that's love. In return, the asshole loved and treasured of what he had also.

Things That I Wish To See Before My Grave

According to the Chinese tradition, it's the grave visitation season now. I guess most of the Chinese have already rushed to their ancestors' graves for the past few weeks in the memorial of the passed away. Of course, I have paid visitations to all of my gradma(s), and I am gonna say hi and bye to my grandpa this weekend.

It's a Chinese cultural tradition to place some of the ancestor favorite food and drinks before the grave. This is kind of strange to the westerners, but it's extremely usual to most of the Asians especially to the Orientals.

If I were dead, I wish to be settled in the America. A very peaceful and quiet American graveyard is what I want. I don't need to be visited. I rather to be ignored and forgot, just let me to rest in peace with nice sunshine, clean air, and unlimited quiet moments.

If anyone wishes paying me a visit, then I hope that they could bring along the followings before my grave.

Drink List
1. A bottle of Cabernet Sauvignon by the Robert Mondavi Winery, Napa Valley
2. An opened green bottle of Trockenbeerenauslese Riesling from Germany
3. An opened bottle of Eiswein from Germany
4. An opened bottle of Richard Hennessy (if it were way too expensive, then even a glass is fine)
5. A cup of Tai Hung Pol (Big Red Rope) Chinese tea with my own tea set

Food List
1. Chinese style roasted goose head. If goose isn't available in the America, then duck is OK.
2. Spicy pig ears, of course Chinese style
3. Sauteed lamb rack seasoned with sea salt, black pepper, and rosemary
4. Sauteed rib-eye seasoned with sea salt, black pepper, and thyme
5. A box of nice chocolate

Other
1. Japanese 4-sons video (Just burn the DVD for me!)

PhD

The school has proposed a PhD program to me again. Since I joint the HKDI in the last September, I have been suggested (asked) if I wish to take a PhD program or not. I have been asked by the department head and by my supervisor.

Taking a PhD is one of my long term personal goal since I had finished my Masters Degree. Personally, I wish to take an Imaging Science PhD from the CIS RIT majoring either in Color Science or Imaging Science. It's all depending on which fits me by the time I am ready.

Unfortunately, I sensed that the HKDI wishes me to take my PhD from the WuHan University in China, which doesn't really appeal me at all. I didn't mean to look down on the university, but I really feel that's a waste of my time. Even if they had a PhD in Imaging Science (I know that they don't because RIT is the only university offering a degree in such area), I don't believe in their faculty members nor their equipments.

University education is supposed to be enjoyable. I hate to be forced to study. Moreover, a person should not only focus on his/her professional improvement, but also mind maturing during the college time. I would like to be educated by the Americans, but not the Chinese due to their government backgrounds and the cultural believes.

People keep saying that China is rocking and will be the tomorrow leader! I have to admit that yes, it will be, but only in the business field. Once outside business, it is incomparable to anything and/or anywhere of the rest of the world. Just give you a perfect example, according to today newspaper, the China Olympic Fire has been put out for four times in Paris! Everyone keeps saying that everybody hates the America, but no one ever tried to put out the fire, when the games were held in the America. So, you can see how many people actually really hate and not supporting China in reality.

OK, long story short. I didn't mean for not going for the WuHan University PhD, but firstly, the program has to impress me. Secondly, the company has to fully pay for both of my PhD cost and keep paying my monthly salary. If not, I am not going to waste even one second of my time in it.

By the way, just for your information. Taking a PhD in RIT is totally free of charge!

The Process Of Making A Faked Egg (假蛋製造過程 ) Part# 1

First of all, I have to apologize to those of you, who loves reading my blog becuase I am gonna write it in partly Chinese this time. So, if you don't really follow or understand what I am trying to say, then just take a look at the attached images, then you probably understand.

Faked egg has been heard through out the Chinese community for quite a few years. I won't doubt the rumor, but there just isn't any proof until recently that I have received an E-mail with a documentary story and images. I don't know how truth the E-mail is, but I chose to believe in it. Yeah, you might be shock by the smartness of the Chinese, but to me that's a cultural shame!

I always question upon the faked egg story, as egg is so cheap in price . . . not until now. I am not gonna translate or upload the story in full details. General speaking, a group of retired chemistry major China soldiers formed a training school teaching courses on fake egg and other stuffs making. According to the story, this group is still partly supported by the Chinese army . . . You know, it's all about money.

Let's see the images below.

First of all, let's check out for the ingredient of the Faked Egg Making.

This image shows a formal faked egg teaching class.

The school is well set up with a beautiful receptionist.

Well printed text books upon faked egg and other f__ked up class.

If you wish to have a CD, Here you go!

A beta tester! Yummy, right?

After I had read the E-mail and watched all of the images . . . again, I am shamed to be a Chinese. You might question how real the story and the images are, but let me tell you . . . I deeply believe that all Chinese WILL choose to believe without a tiny bit of doubtfulness.

The Process Of Making A Faked Egg (假蛋製造過程 ) Part# 2

Folks, so we have heard of faked egg making for quite a while, the following steps are very generalized summary . . . I don't know how I should describe the images below . . . just . . . enjoy the shame of the Chinese!

步驟 1調製原料

將海藻酸納、食用明膠等7 種化學材料混水，調勻成凝膠狀，即為蛋清原料，再取同樣材料加入黃色色素，成為蛋黃原料。

步驟 2製作蛋黃
將蛋黃原料倒入模具至2∕3滿，放進以氯化鈣調成的神仙水中，輕晃模具，蛋黃出現薄膜就宣告完成。將蛋黃在神仙水中靜置 1小時定型，再取出沖洗晾乾備用 。



步驟3 假蛋成型
在模具中倒入1∕3蛋清原料，先像包粽子一樣放進蛋黃，再倒入蛋清，放進神仙水中輕晃， 1粒無殼雞蛋便緩緩浮現。將裸蛋定型1小時，以清水沖洗後晾乾，準備上殼。

步驟4 粉墨登場

用縫衣線穿過雞蛋，浸入以蜜蠟、碳酸鈣等調製成的蛋殼溶液中，反覆數次，待外殼稍微風乾後，浸入冷水中抽線定型，至此，假雞蛋已穿上外衣，大功告成。

連『皮蛋』也做的出來。假蛋放入鍋中油煎，除了蛋白氣泡比真蛋多之外，賣相甚至比真蛋還可口

The Art Of Self Controlling

I had a not too fancy French cuisine dinner with some of my antique friends for the past Saturday. Connie and I were late, they were kind enough waiting for our arrival. Once we have arrived, they pulled me the wine list immediately and asked me to pick one for them. I gotta admit that I love drinking, but I kind of prohibited myself lately. They were shocked for my rejection of wine picking. In the end, I just randomly picked one.

Should I used to word, prohibition to describe my lately act of self controlling? I quit drinking due to Connie. She didn't like me to drink, she tried hard for stopping me in the beginning . . . as time goes by, I recognize I need to drink no more. I am still addicted in buying a few bottles from here or there as long as the price interests me, but opening? No . . . not even two bottles a month.

It's not an easy task in the beginning. It's just the same as if quitting coffee. It's strange for not drinking while eating . . . it's just not right at all. After a few trails . . . that's it. I need it no more. This action is a form of art. It's the art of self controlling. I am proud of myself and of course, I gotta thank Connie for supporting.

Busy Weekends

Connie and I had been kind of busy for the passed weekend for the wedding stage decoration agent hunting. Marco Polo Hong Kong Hotel is the place where we are gonna do our banquet. A stage is provided, but it's way to simple and ugly, so that we have to decorate it. After hunted for two days, we are down to two agents. I have my own designed stage, but still have to look up to our budget for producing it out or not.

In the June 2007, Connie and I went to the America for a two weeks trip. During the trip, she met my parents. My mother made a comment upon her. She commented that Connie might give up anything for photo-shooting. Yeah~~~ Connie loves photo taken. So, most of you guys must think that it's good to marry me, as I am a somewhat photographer . . . Let me tell you that . . . NO! I am not really into picture taking no more! I don't enjoy being a model neither! I rather hiring someone else for her photo taking, instead of doing it myself! Of course, at the same time, it's a pain in the ass for me to find a photographer that I like.

At this moment, I guess I spent most of my money in wedding photo shooting. If the earlier photo shooting is included, then there would be four times of wedding picture taken by four groups of photographers from the beginning to November 29, 2008. Don't ask me the reason why and for what, just zip your mouth . . . that's it.

Connie printed 500+ pictures of our last wedding photographs. She is now arranging the pictures in the living room! What a pain in the ass! I am not gonna help her at all, don't even bother asking me. It's a Connie thing! Let her be!

By the way, BeeBee recognizes himself, CeiCei, Connie, and I from the printed images. Seriously, he does! Whenever he saw himself, he will cheered immediately and barks! I love this baby!

WALL•E

There will be a new Pixar animation named, the WALL•E coming to the theater in June 08. According to the preview, seems like it should be one of their best stories, which I am already looking forward for seeing it. WALL•E is a small cute but fat little robot, which reminds me of my lovely BeeBee. Suddenly I felt like missing him a lot, so I decided to drop a few latest notes upon them (BeeBee and CeiCei) to my blog.

CeiCei went through her painful surgery last week. Connie and I put her under such nightmare for two reasons. Firstly, she has three bad teeth, which needed to be removed. Secondly, she has to be spayed. She isn't young at all, she's seven to eight years old according to several doctors. Spaying is a huge advantage for achieving a healthier body in her age. She gotta wear a collar for the next 14 days. She was upset and didn't want to wear in the beginning. She cried, but now she got over it already.

For BeeBee . . . according to doctor, he is horribly overweight! He has to go through an extreme hell-liked diet program, which I don't believe that he could make it through. Still, he gotta try for it, as he is already 13.5 pounds! Half a cup of his dieting dog-food . . . that's it. No more than that until his weight reduces to <10.

Bon and Connie SPECIAL wedding Photo!!!

Folks, take it easy! I did it just to cheer Connie and all of the honored photographers! Everybody, thanks for the hard works, and here you go as all of you have wished . . . the crazy Bon! Just laugh as hard as you like! By the way, after wearing the wedding gown, I realized how tough Connie was and still is for finishing the two days of photo shooting with me. Connie, thanks for the hard work. I am appreciated.
