Silky tofu skin

Got home in time to have dinner with the whole family today. =)

Half way through dinner, wifey told me Young has a pimple.

"What?!! But he is not even seven yet." It felt a bit ridiculous to me.

"There, it's there on his face." Wifey pointed out the spot on Young's face.

It's on his chin, just underneath the lower lip, bang in the middle.

Hsiang, eager to tell, said, "it's because didi always have food stuck on his chin when eating."

Then wifey caressed Young's cheek and said to him, "oh no Young Young, your face is not smooth anymore."

To which Hsiang said, "mommy, now only you and I have silky tofu skin."

And we all laughed.

午餐记（二）

孩子们的周末课外活动时间改变后，还真的好一段时间没有去那间茶餐室吃午餐了。

今天老婆仔和孩子们有午餐生日会，父母又一早就出门说会吃了午餐才回，所以又要一个人吃午餐啦。

回到那久违的茶餐室，坐在我惯例的角落桌：一号桌。

前方桌的女人反复瞟瞄了我几次，让我有点不自在。

是不是因为我蛮深的眼袋，熊猫眼？

一点都不面善啊，不是认识的嘞…

鸡饭老板提着一桶饭经过，顺口问我是不是叫鸡饭？

真的是吃到他都认得我的样子了，呵呵！

我答是啊，叫了在等。

他回到档口帮我催了催端饭的伙计，谢啦老板！

鸡饭档请了一位新的员工哦，茶水也是。

那从 laksa 到大虾面的档口又换了，现在是卖糕点的。

其他的档口依旧。

仍然是鸡饭的生意最好，整个茶餐室生意都好好，还是人来人往。

鸡饭端来时伙计也拿了碗辣菜汤。

我没有叫咧，不过算了吧，就多一块钱。

反正我也没有试过，味道还不错。

也没有太在意四周的人和事，因为精神有点恍惚，脑子当机似的。

还没睡够就被两个瓜的玩闹声吵醒，太阳都还没有晒屁股嘞！

一点都不尊重周末，真是的。

吃饱了我就离开那茶餐室，不知道下次再去会是何时呢？

Time consumer

YouTube is an incredible time consumer.

I was listening to a song on YouTube and noticed a link to another song that I like, so I checked it out after the current song was done.

Then there are many more links to some other songs that I also like so I clicked on those as well.

And at some point, links to entertainment news and snippets appeared so I checked those out...

By the time I realised I have spent way too much time on YouTube surfing, the afternoon is gone.

累

原本打算昨天写篇文章，结果下午开始头痛，回到家后冲了凉倒在床上昏死。

不知是太累，还是缺水。可能是两样的总和。

八点多九点起来吃晚餐，十点多头又开始隐隐作痛，所以没写成文章。

调到槟岛这工厂的整个月来工作总是累，几乎每天都工作十二小时。

今天回到家也是累了，但晚餐后还得匆匆赶去机场接父母，再回到家已是晚上十一点。

唉，真的好累。

Underwear

The hardware people will tell you the problem is from the software.

The software people will tell you the problem is from the hardware.

Whoever is loudest wins.

Just kidding, whoever can show conclusive proof will shut the other side up good, and get to say the "I told you" last word.

Anyway, overheard this conversation between a hardware and a software colleague.

Hardware person: "everything has to work together, the hardware, the software..."

Bystander cut in: "...and underwear."

And we all laughed.

Then I said: "well, you can always go commando..."

psst... it's the software problem. =P

Relocation

I have been sold relocated to the other site for slightly short of a month now.

Being the grumpy person that I am, of course I have plenty to grumble about.

First and foremost is of course the abysmal traffic, it could take me up to an hour to get home, a mere 19 km distance, while the average time for me to get home from ulu place is 70 minutes, covering 51 km.

Bollocks I tell you, just bollocks! I will take 51 km of mostly smooth highway any day compared to 19 km of frustrating jam primarily because of selfish idiotic bastards. >_<

Then, I am currently working with a bunch of workaholics who don't seem to have any idea what work/life balance is. Working till way too late and skip lunch, seriously ruining my slacker extraordinaire reputation.

I missed the badminton, the foosball, the tabletop gaming session...

Last and definitely not least, is the very reason I am relocated there. Makes my blood boil just thinking about it. Some words are worthless, and I am a cheap labour, meh! =\

To be fair though, there is one good thing working in this other site:

They have free Coke in the cafe! =P

有感而发：手放开

二零一六年七月十日。

刚刚自己为自己理发*时，突然「手放开」这首歌就那么浮现在我脑海里。

*是的，我很强嘞！第一次而已啦，自力更生的训练来的。

现在一边不停播放刘力扬的版本，一边写这篇文章。

多年前听过李圣杰的这首歌后就蛮喜欢它的歌词，一直到听了刘力扬的版本后才在网上搜查歌词练唱了几次。

我想我还是喜欢刘力扬的版本多过李圣杰的。

也不知怎么的，我总是比较喜欢悲情的歌，好像比较有感觉咯。

特别喜欢其中的这几句歌词：

“当眼泪流下来 伤已超载 分开也是另一种明白”

“我给你 最后的疼爱是手放开”

“感情中专心的人容易 被伤害”
