It has been weeks of hot weathers in HK. After more than 2 years staying here, I found myself more and more hating the local weather, apart Nov to Feb beautiful days ( no mosquitos, no sweats), the remaining 8 months are really unbearable. we are forced to stay inside, anywhere with air-conditioned. Although there is air-conditioned Sydrome if people stay too long inside an air-conditioned room,

30, a scary number for woman, I guess. Even very unwillingly, I had to say goodbye to my 20s and enter a 30s stage. Really scary, I have to admit.Still, I am quite statisfied about what I "acheived", just helped sister to review her yearly career plan, allow me to use some ambitious words...the biggest acheivment, for sure, is my Pietro. He is six months and 4 days. An has taken one day off for

本来好端端写到一半的article, 不晓得怎么回事竟没有保存下来。我顿时泄了气。自意大利回来又发生了许多值得纪录的事。想想许久没写中文了，不如换换胃口。20周星期一下午和老公，妈妈准时到达龚医生诊所。虽说约好的时间是3:15pm, 我们却足足等了近一个小时。老公不久就开始抱怨了。想想他特地请假陪我，却在那傻等，是很不值。在准备发飙以前，却轮到我了。老公乐呵呵的跟我进去。在肚皮上涂了一堆凉凉的膏体之后，医生终于出现了。说老实话，前面5分钟还真没看懂。只知道宝宝的心脏，左心房右心房等等等等。 老公却follow的很好，想他当年学了一年医学的底子，还是有帮助的。既然看不很懂，最重要的是医生说宝宝各个器官都正常。我当然就很放心了。下面的部分我的participation就多多了。医生给我们看了宝宝的侧面，胖乎乎的脸，感觉和他爸一样。小嘴还在一张一和的。那一刹，真觉得好幸福哦。

Two weeks past since we were back from Italy. The weather was so nasty: hot, humid and continuous raining. The Uni Summer term hasn't yet started, so basically, I don't have any clue or guildline for the final project. I guess i have nothing to worry about except the unbirthed baby. Next Monday will be the 20th week of my pregnancy. I have appointed a high resolution ultrasound scan in order to

Today is the 9th week of my pregnancy. An, mother and I went to see the doctor for the first-time ultrasound check. And I saw the baby and his heart beating, that was incredible!!!! So clear and fast. His size is about one third of my finger, tiny, tiny, little thing. So all doubts are clarified, I am going to be a mum in 7 months. So far so good, I am not having strong reactions due to the

Few days ago, when I was chatting with Graham ( he is the guy I got to know through my blog and eventually we started to contact offline), he did remember me that I have abondaned my blog for too long time. I guess I have to write something down, especially at this special moment in my life, me, now, bride to be.Our registeration will be held in Tuen Mun city hall 11:00 AM Feb 7th, 2006. Only 11

October 1st, Chinese National Day, our day of burglar entered.10:30am waked up, An was asking me why I didn't close the glass door to the garden, it was open. Puzzled by the fact, I found there were things shattering on the floor in the guest room, after a check, I suddenly realized burglars have entered our home. After a further check, I found my little mountain bag was gone, with my wallet,

It was long time I didn't feel so exhausted on Friday. Since the deadline for the completion of decoration is set ( 14th September, the last day of our current rental), suddenly I realized nothing has been contributed from my side. Considering the high costs of decoration in Hong Kong, we let Professional ( the deco. Co.) mainly take in charge of the basic things: flooring, wall painting,

Today is my blog's one year anniversary!! More I am continuing on it, more I found it wasn't an easy job. I have already left several unfinished articles which I am quite sure I will not be able to finish it. Sad though, I know I have made a good move, at least it was gradually updated by my little thoughts and feelings of the life. I am fairly satisfied. Since the beginning I knew I am doing

Since An is away, suddenly I realized I am having an really unhealthy type of life. I hardly have friends here. It seems I was back 10 years ago, when this silly 18-year-old girl first arrived at Shanghai in a drizzly morning. Alone, knowing nobody and was willing to afford all her life from zero. Now I am back to the same departure line, apart An, HK is fresh as 10 years ago Shanghai to me.The

Finally, I am able to sit down calmly and write things down, which I have been thinking since I am back from Shanghai. The main reason I can still sit in front of the computer so late is because An is departing to Italy for his seven-day vacation. He wasn't really willing to go back Italy, especially without my participation this time. But his parents miss him, and no matter how old he grows,

I will take time and write them down.OK, just a quite greeting to show I am back.Here I attach partial things I have written in Shanghai: ... "Now I am in Shanghai, and outside it is 37 degree.

This January I left Shanghai in order to spend Chinese New Year in Hong Kong with An. Approximately I have been away from Shanghai for 5 months.I have to be back after such a long time: 11 is Duanwu festival and father wants me to be at home; 19th is Sister's wedding date and 26th is nuonuo's wedding date. Moreover, I am both weddings' bridesmaid, which means no absence is allowed. ;-)I am

Today I browsed the website of Villa Pinada. And there is a private discussion forum only opens for owners. What I have to do is to register a name and become a member of it. It took me a while to think a nice name and then I decided to choose “中意小筑”－zhongyi xiaozhu as the name for our home in HK.zhongyi: in Chinese it means like/fond of/ love; xiaozhu: means little buildings/home. So zhongyi

Well, some quick words about my last two visits to Shenzhen.May 1st: The first time An accompanied me for the tour. Instead of the usual places of shopping mall, we decided to go to see the Lianhua Shan park ( Lotus mountain park). There was a big yard for skating. Lying on the grasses, we enjoyed watching the skates. Two were extraordinary. An old man was sitting on grass and let the wind to

Here I am back. Under the companion of Michael Buble’s songs, try to concentrate and write things down. “ Tell me quando, quando, quando…” I like this song ☺ D1: first of all, I got a very bad sleep over the whole night. Where our room locates, is exactly overhead the main road, and it is one of the main roads for people to get out from the bar area in the old town. And there were bunches of

Since I booked CZ electronic tickets, we went straight forward to the CZ ticket counter to pick them up. The price is quite good (55% discount) and we managed to buy the return ticket for An from Lijiang back to Shenzhen (decent price as well,

Last night I received an email from two college students in Netherlands saying they got my e-mail address from the big boss of Magnetic Germany. And they wanted me to help them for their Magnetic Autocontrol market research in China. Moreover, they have seen the presentation I did for Magnetic products in China...What the hell is that???) I did a presentation to Magnetic because one year ago they

I will arrive at Kunming 9:00AM tomorrow.I have to adjust my schedule as I stayed one more day in Deqin for the Mingyong Glacier. And I suppose I have spent too much time in lijiang as well.

原以为签好临时合同，就可以好好松一口气。下面的步骤就只是按步就班。所以很是高兴的开始计划去云南的旅行。不想麻烦不断。真应了这句“好事多磨”。。。先是对方迟迟没有将临时合约回签。据说大老板去日本渡假(复活节)，这一拖就拖了一个多星期。昨天还告知说合约最早会在下星期三签还。我自然是暴跳如雷。生生要给推迟两周，结果自然是交房装修也会被推迟。同时还有银行贷款的问题，一天没有临时合约，就不能开始正式申请。无奈之后，只能接受现状。谁知峰回路转，今天却突然得知合约已于昨日签好。可是，我接下来的安排又不行。。。只好继续与对方商量。头痛之极。一直想当然的以为香港是法制社会，很多操作应该比国内正规的多。其实全然不是这样。我还是得象个刺猬，竖起浑身的刺以防一不小心吃亏了去。安说香港人究其根本就是海盗。他在香港一年的工作经验使他从乐观主义者越发走向悲观。在丛林中生活，不适应就只有被淘汰。

发现自己有好久没有写中文帖子了。真的很是担心自己的中文水平。习惯了在电脑上打字，时常会不记得某个字怎么写。更有胜者，当静下心来想写点东西的时候，竟不自觉用英语的多。好了，言归正传。下面我要写的就是这近一个月来我在香港的看房记。在香港看房已有一个月了。中间和过十个房产中介打交道，囊括中原，美联二家香港最大的房地产中介。背景自然是今年香港的地产出现蓬勃景象。房产交易十分之火爆。不知诸位对香港的房子和房价有否了解。如果答案是否定的话，我可要多费写笔墨了。靠近香港岛和九龙较市中心地区均价在5000~6000每平方尺，也就是说相当于5万到６万每平方米。新界地区好一些，因为较远，所以均价在2000~3000每平方尺。再好的地段如半山之类的，均价在上万每平方尺。据悉香港是仅次于东京房价的城市。也正应为这寸土寸金，香港的房子实在是迷你的可以。50平方米左右的面积生生给隔出个三房两厅。

I was a little bit lazy recently without having any new post. And now I have to write sth. down. Actually the first thing came across my mind is this trip I have done to Shenzhen.In order to continue to stay in HK, I have to exit from HK to China every 14 days and then I will be re-credited by another 14 days' stay. Even it sounds so troublesome, I am able to keep staying as having a annual

The day before yesterday I watched one of the most famous Taiwanese TV programs " I guess, I guess and I guess guess guess" 我猜我猜我猜猜猜. It came out a very interesting topic which is palm face beauty. From oriental point of view small face is considered much more beautiful than big one. In some extreme cases, a girl with a face which can be measured by one palm is called palm face beauty. Here it is

Went to see the incredibles yesterday. It is really a nice movie. Pixar has done an incredible job. Also enjoyed that bounding sheep. Would like to watch a 2nd time. hehe

I always enjoyed Hot Spring. Apart the beautiful experiences I had in Japan and New Zealand, I was able to take several hot spring baths when I was in Sichuan. That was the cheapest one I have ever made. :-) 10 Yuan for half an hour and a single room for myself. Not bad, isn't it?That's why I have been thinking to go to Gudou Hot Spring since I arrived in HK. Everybody knows Shanghai is a

从朋友处收到这封邮件。很有些感触，希望与你分享。。。 ——身在此山中，我看不清楚这个时代 1、我要回家，我要工资！ 这是民工岳富国生前的最后一句话。说完这句话之后，岳富国便因突发脑溢血昏迷。36小时之后，医生宣布岳富国死亡。直到此时，岳富国仍然没有拿到应该属于他的工资。岳富国的遗孀姚玉芳悲愤的问题道：他们咋就不给钱呢？（《成都商报》报道） 楼主曰：当年岳富国的双亲在给他取名时，一定没有想到岳富国首先连自己也富不了。 2、永不放弃我的北大梦 因为高考成绩未达到一本录取分数线，17岁的陕西姑娘小倩（化名）从位于五楼的自家阳台纵身一跃，于7天之后不治身亡。她死后，记者在她的房间里发现了一张纸条，上面写着：永不放弃我的北大梦。然而这纵身一跃却永远断送了她的北大梦。（新华网报道） 楼主曰：中国的孩子们，你们快乐吗？ 3、你们到底是干什么的？ 2004年5月18日凌晨一点多，常霞还在睡梦中

Once I declared that I am leaving for Hong Kong soon. Parents started to bomb me with daily soups-fish, pig feet, duck, bone... It is said that in Chinese "Winter is the best season to have nutrients". To be frank, I have never cared so much about this sort of things. I am healthy enough. But when I left my former job, all the people around have described me unacceptably thin. And I have always

I thought it was once for all, but I was wrong completely. It showed once again my naivety and innocence. Sitting in the court and watching people who can tell white into black, I felt so disgusted. There are really people without any ethic. My legal process to retrieve my rights has undergone for six months, including the arbitration process and the current court process. Even seemly most

Somehow, I have to admit that my 2 trips to the Tibetan areas have affected me quite a lot and caused my great interests in digging out all kinds of Tibet-related movies and books. " An Adventure to Lasha about a Paris lady" is one of the books. Author, Madam David Neel, from all her life, without doubt she is a distinguished adventurer and traveler. Moreover, I presume she is one of the most

I had a sudden crisis last night. I checked the websites of the main universities in Hong Kong and I realized I have not yet understood which course I would like to apply. The applying deadline is not so far. If I loose this year, which means September 2005, I will be really mad at myself. The sudden urge of making a decision pushed me to a dilemma. I know I have been taking time to make all

－昨日与小祝姝姝会面有感 14号楼204室。同室四年的室友，自毕业后便是各奔东西。年初和诺诺在东京相见时，很是惊异得发现大家已经相识十载了。 好在大家一直保持着联系。特别是在经历许多现实社会尔虞我诈勾心斗角之后，这纯真的友谊就格外显得珍贵了。有趣的是每次见面时间一下就回到了从前，竟不觉得这几年大家有任何改变。 事实上，大家还是改变多多： 诺诺：现长驻日本。近期在办去美国的签证，预计今年于美国完婚。 姝姝：弄儿为乐。计划儿子3岁以后再出去打天下。现在全职妈妈。 鱼：结婚生女儿后离婚。先办工厂现经营外贸公司。现居桐庐。 小祝：加拿大留学回来。和男朋友感情很好可是男方父母很是麻烦。 阿萌：在合肥。还没嫁出去。 以及我：今年决定前往香港。应该会读研。 最后的一个崔沁：是唯一一个不和大家联系的人。最后一次听说她和小四眼去了英国。想来应该不错。 这次三个人一见面自是唧唧喳喳没完没了。

I had a little consideration about what language I should choose to write this travel blog. Due to An's inability to read Chinese, and my will to share with him this beautiful experience, I decided to pick up English. I know that in this way, my blogging language could become much more plain and less interesting, but... as for everything in life, we have to make our choice and then go on. 18/09/

After I confirmed the airticket to Chengdu, suddenly I felt I am refilled with all my energy. Now the only problem I have to overcome is my bad cold. It won't be so beautiful to travel with an illness.My travel will not be a tourist travel, in cozy hotels: I need to be strong enough to afford long walks and sleeping where I can. So I started seriously to take medicines for my cold and I am

I have been a little bit bored by the speed of blogger, even if I have been using it just for a few time. Average, I have to spend 10 minutes to open the window and sometimes I even cannot open it.

I had a strange dream last night. It is not the first time I dreamed about loosing teeth, but this time it was so real! The whole downside teeth were soft and I just took them out without blood, but they had veins linked. I was even not so scared, to be honest, the only thing I thought was "I must see a dentist". And I did believe my teeth were almost off when I waked up. Under An's suggestion

There are two senses in my meaning of apple.One is my every morning breakfast -apple. Though apple is famous for its good to health. I have never liked it too much. Compared with apple I liked more orange and banana. Due to parents's much more caring of health, they started to buy more and more apples. And my breakfasts become honey plus apple. Sounds very health, isn't it?The other apple refers

11/8/2004~19/8/2004 西藏 第一天：一早从上海虹桥机场起飞，中转成都双流机场，再到拉萨贡嘎机场 先问个问题：告诉我你知道西藏是中国目前为止唯一不通火车的地方吗？呵呵，其实在去之前我也是不知道的。进藏目前仅有两种主要工具（汽车和飞机），公路动辄就1000多公里的，就拿进藏最容易的路线青藏线来说吧，最快也要20个小时。显而易见，此行选择走航空还属明智之举。不过青藏铁路现在在建设中，预计2007年通车。 一下飞机，气温相当适宜（25度），比起上海的酷暑真是天差地别。湛蓝的天空还有炙热的骄阳都在不遗余力的传达着一个信息—嘿嘿。。。我们到拉萨啦。 贡嘎机场位于拉萨以南100公里处，我们仍需要2个小时的车程。好在一路的景象也别致，沿途欣赏着藏式民居（平顶是由于当地的雨水少；而四角立柱上的经幡，据说风吹一次就代表经幡上的经文被念颂了一次。）和雅鲁藏布江（之后翻阅Lonely

Today Shanghai is 23 degree. Never been so cool since June. I am telling myself I should do something as it is already more than 3 months I am no more working. But the most wanted thing I would like to do at this moment is to get out of Shanghai and travel inside China by myself. There is an interview I have to attend then I will be free. Hope to finish it soon.

I suppose the people who have never been to Tibet will not profoundly understand this movie. "Seven years in Tibet" --Brad Pitt stars in the soaring adventure and incredible true story of an Austrian prisoner of war who is transformed by his friendship with the young 14th Dalai Lama.It is a forbidden movie in China.

－上海在我于７月15日从香港返沪后就持续高温，下过唯一一场大雨今天按道理是发工资日，我却做在必胜客南京路店（黄河路口）开始写下自己多年不写的日记。这段时间来，告诉过自己很多次总得写点什么下来。包括自己这一生此次最大的挫折，包括游历了超过20个国家的点点滴滴。虽说只是短短５年之间的事，有些记忆已经开始有些模糊不清了。５月24日(2004), 应该是一个值得纪念的惨痛的日子。事情发生的那么突然几乎没有一点征兆。是自己太自信了，还是涉世未深？竟然一点防备也没有。从被赶出公司到回公司拿东西，从第一封律师函到第一次开庭，有经历了许多么有过的第一次。虽说自己一向是敢于尝新，巴不得把天下的第一次统统尝尽，这一次我却摔的太重。不愿细数孰是孰非，只觉得恍然一梦。其实，仲裁也好，诉讼也好，实在是很痛苦的过程。得一次次撕开伤口，找出证据，证明这处伤口是某某刺的，那处是某某洒的盐。人性的丑恶，
