軒仔拉闊變奏

剛剛有機會聽完軒仔早前嘅拉闊live cd..由他演繹嘅憶蓮medley別有一番味道..特別係"愛上一個不回家的人"..同埋"至少還有你"..可能佢係廣州人..無論廣東或者國語歌..都處理得幾好..今次音樂編排以及現場演繹都.....掂! 能造到向偶像salute..又有自己嘅風格..加埋個紫紫哋姣姣哋嘅封面..睇落都幾襯個主題..拉闊得嚟又變奏!

countdown...

好快又一個星期..今日全天侯都係咁忙..好彩都有兩個teammates一齊頂一頂..加上有其他dept同事幫手..再過埋下星期三就差不多收爐..咁就真係塵埃落定了..一向以來都儘量很少喺個blog上面講工作嘅瑣碎事..只不過近來心態上真係有d改變咗..知道幾忙幾惆悵都好..都要控制吓自己嘅工作情緒..有番d台型至得..沉著冷靜咁去盡量克服挑戰..盡力而為..

十二月中嘅心情...

進入十二月中..今年只剩下七個工作天..工作上不斷有衝擊和障礙..不自覺間..我也學會盡量放鬆自己的情緒..坦然咁去面對..盡量提醒自己將得失放低..不要將自己迫死..所以放工後仍抽時間落旺角..可能平日小落去朗豪坊..都覺得有d心水嘢睇到..今晚進度都幾好..又揀啱幾件得意打火機..有黑色超薄型..會着燈高達防熄(一個紅色留俾自己)..重有個幾cute嘅熊掌型..送俾公司幾個煙產..相信佢地都會幾滿意..今年可能市道氣氛都稍為緊張..所以揀聖誕禮物原則都會係緊貼日常生活..以實用性為主..將注意力去揀禮物同時亦可以為自己減壓..算是另一番體會..

廣告slogan

早幾日睇報紙見到康泰嘅ad, 相信係為配合近月金融海嘯所出嘅slogan: "毋須坐困愁城..不如玩咗再拼".. 對今日嘅香港人而言..真係極之貼題..亦真係令人值得反醒反醒..不妨放開懷抱..俾自己整頓下步伐..稍作休息..回一回氣再嚟過..亦都好切合我近日嘅心情.. 唔知係唔係咁巧合..記得上次九七金融風暴..當年嘅香港電訊都出咗句: "只要有夢想..凡事可成真".. 亦都係另一句對我有很深感受和啟發嘅slogan..

地球終極時

越嚟越多提醒人關於地球漸漸接近終結的電影,電視特輯,有時真的覺得將來好似很灰,尤其當心情不好或情緒低落時,都有諗下他朝一日究竟係點?近日亦忽然想起 "我和殭屍有個約會" 嗰套劇同首歌... 願思念是並沒盡頭 沒有依附現在過去或以後 即使這驅殼有一朝化盡塵垢 仍能跟你纏綿於宇宙 霓虹上有雪,酒得多撇脫 像向天地萬物,作最後告別 分不清季節,這冰冷四月 眼前的世界,景色淒迷決絕

日子如何●力量也如何

今朝倒塔咁早去咗公司嘅人大會議(領導人早餐大會)..去到當然有擦錯無放過 (擦番餐勁)..蝦餃..燒賣..义燒包..重有維他奶..不過食完嘢又要聽人長編大論..個頭又痛..不過其中有個人講嘅point又幾有道理..佢話一個樂觀嘅人嘅工作表現總比另一個終日愁眉苦面嘅人更好更出色(好似係有統計)..或者都係嗰句..有辨法解決嘅就唔係問題..盡哂所有能力都無辨法嘅..煩都無用..笑又係咁去過一日..喺邊個崗位上都好..有時總要提醒自己要永不放棄..耐心等待機會嘅出現..特別在今日金融海嘯衝擊之下..願每個香港人都共勉.. 電視都有講:你的日子如何.力量也必如何!

career times

I can't remember how many times I decided to turn down an offer. It is sort of a resemblance to my love life in the way that I am stucked with what I have / can't have. After thinking over and over again, I am just not comfortable making the move. This time, I even considered there is something still worth to pursue in my current role. For guys, perhaps career is more than moving on to a new job. It is also about building your resume; anticipating what kind of competition you would encounter; working to survive the changes in the job market. This is an ongoing revival process.

九五至尊管理智慧

近日翻看幾年前嘅『九五至尊』,全套劇都幾攪嘢,超時空,雍正皇帝加埋呂四娘,落難於香港,劇情更與建築扯上關係:建才公司老板秦沛對經營建築事業的情義,來自他對家的重視,他更要管理幾個仔女(brian志大才疏;hugo有實力但太自我未能盡得人心;frankie有勇有謀但最後卻利欲薰心;rachel雖未夠成熟但具有賢德之心),如何知人善用,並要償罰分明,要管理好工作,就先要處理妥自己的家。而李大蝦的皇者智慧,怎樣觀人於色,留意身邊人事及每樣問題精結所在,但又切勿鋒芒太露。在困難時更要處變不驚,積極去面對,在失敗中汲取教訓,做人做事更要有大丈夫所為,要管理他人,亦先要管理好自己。 當中嘅做人處世道理,趣味之中亦有值得反思嘅智慧,讓我重新評估自己嘅工作生活態度。在辨工室,或在人生道上,總有得著...

胸襟

(網絡圖片)
由細到大,每逢面對逆景時,自己的態度總比較消極,很多時候不懂得從另一個角度去面對事情,甚至有時會自怨自艾。當人大了,特別在社會磨練了一段日子,或者思想亦慢慢開始沉澱,漸漸開始明白,人總要學識如何自處,特別當遇到困難錯折時,只要盡咗力但仍未能改變事實的話,不妨用豁達的胸襟去面對一切。 處身於都市的生活壓力之中,更要多留意身邊的人和事,或者會令自己更加客觀,同埋更懂得去appreciate自己所有所面對的。

雞販的啟示...

今日繼續我嘅清假行動,偶然看到鏗鏘集,今集主題有關活雞行業的興衰,一路睇一路有d感慨,片中訪問到幾個雞檔檔主,當中更有兩代經營,但到了第二代已經因為中央屠宰政策而要被迫結業!其中一個阿伯更道出他的矛盾,當初因打算栽培個仔繼承,但到今日亦慨嘆可能累咗個仔,阿伯嘅說話更令我有d啟發,悲觀一點看就係事與願違,但若然豁達一點睇亦不過是藍柯一夢而已。 縱使阿伯今日感到三失(失望失落失敗),但阿伯更有三誠(誠信誠實誠懇)嘅服務態度,是值得每個服務業嘅人借鏡的。 但最後一個shot竟然係掛靴(水鞋),真諷刺! 令我有點反思嘅係,要不斷檢討今天所走嘅路,人嘅眼光一定要放得夠遠夠闊,更要為未來不斷學習,不斷求進,裝備自己。

Concentrate

It is already Q4 of the year and I am in middle of the peak season at work, just as the years before. No doubt there are tons of stress. But I am learning to stay focused; to concentrate; to deal with priorities; to handle work in more effective manner; try to work things out and get the result expected. I am also learning to stay balanced with my after-work live, spend time on doing other non-routine leisure stuff. Most important of all is to stay healthy. Even after work, I noticed that I actually had to concentrate on unloading the stress, forget about work and tried to relax. The 5-day work is kind of like in battle -- you are not sure what would turn out but you know you need to stay in shape and there is just no time for playing emotions.

Hair Salon

Everytime before I am determined to walk in, I used to have struggle, reluntance, hesitation and on top of that the unwillingness to sit there for hours! But still, everytime the ritual is over, the weariness is gone and the energy is built. I just have a wonderful sensation filled with confidence and more. As soon as I walk out from the hair salon, I just feel I am re-born; revitalized, refreshed; and it just feels so good. It's so physical and psychological......

staying on track

(網絡圖片) For the past couple weeks, I have been trying to put my chaotic life somewhat back on (or near) track. I picked up books which were left in boxes and start reading; I meditated over my role at work; I thought more about my career; I put more focus on doing my job neatly and effectively; I tried to work out some schedule for everyday to balance off my work; I tried to put some regularity back to my wandering pace. Lately I am using the blog to examine my thoughts, try to adjust my perspective and learn to be more confident and optimistic about everything. For the last few weeks, there has been talking about the latest financial tsunami. I began to question about my profession. Though I was not among one of the Lehman's bondholder, the market sentiment became volatile and fragile and it feels like some outbreak is on its way. I get more concerned about having enough cash in my hands. I even tried to postpone my trip; and start thinking about cutting expenses. Maybe I'm just being too uptight. Luckily I don't have a family to raise yet. But this does not ease the tension very much. Somehow, somewhere, I know I need to pull myself together and get going with my sweet-n-sour life. I hope I can manage to make some sense out of all this and perhaps when I look back someday, this could be some lession to learn.

與敵同行

近日正追看「與敵同行」,劇情亦越見緊湊,一幕比一幕驚心動魄,特別當臨近尾聲,兩老表嘅口和心不和,不知誰勝誰敗,特別見到安仔(唐立言)個陰深樣真有點心寒! 近呢個星期每晚都不自覺地追看下去,一小時的時間亦很快過,而且越看越緊迫,很多時更壓迫得令人有點難以呼吸的感覺,一眾演員嘅演出,加上氣氛緊張,好耐未試過追劇追得咁肉緊。

留下衹有思念....

十月十日,是她的生日,不經不覺,她已離開了我們五年,留下祇有思念... Happy Birthday!

機場

唔知由幾時開始..機場已成為我喜愛的一個地方..每次去到機場..都會有種興奮雀躍的感覺..漸漸地..它亦成為了我心中的一片天地..每當感到鬱澀愁悶的時候..去機場走一趟就可以幫我解開煩憂..或者是因為看見客旅等待上機出發..心中不自覺地感到奇妙的盼望..就算不是真的上機去..在周圍的地方流連一陣..也令人舒暢的..在這個神奇地帶..或者可以讓自己平靜下來..好好去整理一下凌亂的思緒.. 繼續前行

(樂觀) x (積極)

有時,人最大的軟弱,並不一定是肉體,反而是不肯去面對問題,不斷去逃避的思維,或者歸根咎底,都是將問題放得太大,有時zoom得太近,只會focus到問題的表面或是某一角,不懂得從另一個角度去看事情,更失去客觀判斷,往往令自己感到進退失據,更影響信心。 最近,一直在逃避的人和事終於要面對,雖然在面對的一刻很有行刑的感覺,但回想起來,情況亦並非想像中般可怕,去面對是需要很大的勇氣,當事情過後,總會發覺或者是當初將事情看得太嚴重,太負面,給自己承受了太大的壓力,甚至有想窒息的感覺!也許這是從小到大已建立的思維,是時候需要澈澈底底的改變。 面對人生,總需要有正面積極的態度,堅定及坦然的精神,自己可以做的,就是將事情盡量處理,就算是能力範圍外,起碼令到事情不要太糟,與其愁眉苦臉去等失敗,倒不如自然不迫的去面對一切吧! 特別在這紛擾時候,就更需要用樂觀積極的態度去一一面對。或者,希望在明天!

金融海嘯...the day after tomorrow

It all started on Monday when I was pity about the closing down of a Wellcome supermarket store near home. It was a "sign". That night I read about the news on Lehman Brothers; then Merrill Lynch, next day AIG and more. The last two days was packed with news about credit crunch in the states and around the world. The biggest names that you always have confidence on is actually tearing up everyone 's faith. It does feel like "end of world" coming. The meaning of financial security comes with alot of question marks and the market sentiment now fills with uncertainty. For an average guy, a wage-maker, I inevitably have some doubt for my own employer. Let's hope things are getting under control.

survive

At some point I find it difficult to keep putting up with my work. Whenever I feel frustrated, the immediate thought would be to quit. But funny thing is, every time there is opening for me to consider, my hesitation also starts to build as whether it is worth a try. I guess being single, money could still be somewhat second important. The pressure is to figure out how my career path will develop and where I am getting. What would happen if I don't survive the change? Will there be a way for U-turn just in case? Choosing a company could be as tough as just choosing the right position. Sometimes prospect of the job becomes more important than the pay. And will the occupation still prevail over time? My sense of security is weakened and at some point it really drive me nut. At time I feel that happiness or job satisfaction could be relatively trivial. The issue is to survive and make it thru.

不吐不快...

今年已過了大半..一直在逃避著一些事情..也想不到情緒會持續低落..這些日子..也不知怎樣去面對周圍..人好像活在重重的困局裡..面前的路舉步為艱..很想有一個解決..有時心裡頭有種很重的壓迫..快樂的感覺已經變得很陌生了..我也不敢想像將來的路..不敢想像黑暗盡頭還會否真有曙光.. 只怕無法再有這種情懷 優美得共你同時在這世界 醜惡在於..赤子的胸懷 難敵這紛擾世態..為理想或求生在捱 沒完沒了各有需要把青春賤賣 漸行漸遠每天很快淡出得更快 這宇宙太大..握手將要安排 原諒我悲觀過界 但血啃在喉中..不吐不快... (摘自: 不吐不快)

金牌背後的堅持

今日睇翻奧運嘅新聞,最感人的一幕是男子團體體操,由李小鵬及楊威領軍嘅國家隊神勇奪金, 金牌背後卻有着一段段辛酸,上屆雅典奧運比賽中連番失誤,更受盡千夫所指,多次想過放棄退役,在失落失意中收拾心情,銳意改革,喺邊度跌低就喺邊度爬翻起來,堅持夢想,最終在北京爬翻起身,用汗水同淚水換嚟一塊含金量極重嘅金牌!(摘自: 有線新聞報導)

向世界出發

今晚剛睇完向世界出發-韓國篇..可能近年來受韓國文化薰陶..對南北韓人民分隔嘅故事..特別當中一家四口分開..母親花了三年才找回女兒..跟兒子分開了七年..但丈夫卻被困在北韓餓死監獄中.. 南北韓中間的和平橋..彷彿將兩韓人民分隔..這麼近卻又那麼遠..林燕妮更憶述她跟三個弟妹以往的點滴..忽然想起..明月幾時有..但願人長久..

搬入新居已半年有多..生活依然很忙很亂..回家後連執拾一吓間屋嘅力量都無..我的單位早就變成四百幾呎嘅狗竇..為了應付工作..經已有一段時間只帶住軀殼..沒有靈魂一樣..真的很想放下一切..去放一個自由自在嘅假期..

平衡的一課

晚上放工後收到老豆的來電..原來係我忘記替佢交電費.. 攪到俾人cut埋電..真係罪該萬死!! 立即撲去滙豐過數..其實,都係嗰短短幾分鐘.. 但平日就係埋頭工作.. 腦裡面就好似其他的東西都管不著.. 生活中早已失去知覺,失去平衡..所謂work+life balance, 談何容易!現時只想到..掌握現在..一切盡力而為..在工作崗位和生活上的時間安排學習平衡...

三個忠誠的朋友

(1) DickDick - 養尊處優 but still moody
(2) Martin - quiet, timid, & cooperative

有朝一日, 我都想有自己嘅body-guard.

有感覺..又無晒知覺..

我都唔知點解忽然無晒感覺 以前嗰種快樂就好似成為一種罪惡 或者其實所謂愛情都只係互相搵個寄托 或者係一埸即興嘅幻覺 連自己都唔知道 乜嘢係喜 乜嘢係樂 幾時有感覺 幾時又冇晒知覺... (摘自: 酷愛)

Reflection of a Jumper

A jumper possesses the power to teleport from one place to next; from one corner of the world to another; in split of a second. What a facinating gift to have! Deep inside, there are things I don't want to deal with ; regrets that I don't want to live with; fears that I want to escape; trials that I want to run from. Sometimes (most of the times), I want to be a jumper too... to have the power to escape and be anywhere I want to be; whenever I want to, most importantly without paying for it and gradually this sensation of leaving things behind could become an addiction. Like the movie, when something is always after me, issues, difficulties or weakness in my heart....things I don't care to deal with; and consequently they keep coming back to me. Now I picture that either I continue to "jump"; or have the guts to learn to deal with it; try to make it right...

懷念肥姐

來吧笑笑笑,讓笑聲照耀,所有碎的心,修理破的橋 持續笑笑笑,是我好介紹,間中倘有淚,仍舊笑笑笑
