My skin got problem again during changes of seasons. Now I got explanation- White seed acne. Sounds so disgusting.

The causes: pressure, lack of sleep, too much sweet (opps!!! I love ice cream and chocolate ), and weather. So it is a combination of causes that creates my current facial disgrace.

Sigh~~~ I will go to bed immediately after this. Spent all night doing my phone recovery-- talked over MSN call with Ali for solutions and tech assistance to no vail; Popeye came and could not find any malicious doc; checked online--- many cases are the same where there is not much documents under each folder under PHONE MEMORY while the total space taken is 44 MB!!! Just the system itself got dumb and could not funciton at all-- not enough phone memory (as the system 'thinks') means not able to backup, not able to transfer. luckily I 'copy' the contacts to the memary card (external) and restored into phone memory. But for calendar info. I had to copy BY HAND one by one to my paper calendar. That is the end of my trust in e-calendar on my cell phone. Or at least I will back up manually as well, day by day.

I do not want to lose track of my friends' BD and my important events in the past and in the near future. But I am happy my phone can work again after being dysfunctional for the whole day-- luckily boss is on leave so there is not much to communicate.

OK guys, I am gonna sleep now. To restore my skin. MOM is right-- skin is the real face-- no make up but a face with eggwhite like skin is real beauty. So I need to work on it. At least I need to reduce the blemish.

Published together some photos I took on my way to see the dermatologist in Rui Jin Hospital with referral from Dr. BS. Thanks to him.

Watched two enjoyable movie--Sicko and Evan Almighty. One about healthcare and medi-care in western countries, the other about faith.Both are nice and helping me learn more.

 

Had a wonderful evening with Bo, wife and nurse RB in Gan Guo Ju. Had very nice spicy dinner. The pumpkin dissert is worth recommendation. Proceeded to see Dr. X. Cute. He was standing there waiting and eating an ice cream and it was sweet he fed me a few spoonfuls and while he was in the DIY bank, I almost ate it up when holding it for him. haha... When he came out of it, he yelled at me" don't you finish all! what is wrong with you?" We went to visit aunt together. We walked from Raffles to his house and swang by a New YorkCity food store where X played some guitar... We opened his ancient feel door and said hi to Dickie who was silently reading. Yes, she looks so demure and intellectual for her age. We had very interesting talk about evolution, 3 of us sitting on the scarlet colored sofa. It was eye opening. I wonder if doctors adopt this good reading habit (read extensively with notes and underlines )as they need to constantly upgrade their medical knowledge. He really reads a lot and is so knowledgeable. I was really impressed and inspired to learn and read more every day!

 

Just now at 4:30 when I went out of an shower after finished Evan Almighty, got a message from em again for me to fetch aunt to go for a dinner together. So I hailed a taxi all the way from PD to his house and again to the lonesome place in PD. When we reached and I wanted to pay--he ran and said nono let me swab my transport card. He is just so considerate even he is a bit harsh sometimes. :P (like stabbling his fork on my fists??? LOL) So we went to the middle-of-nowhere place - the San Jia Gang where I had an interview with Eric in Arrow back in July. That is where the VIP/patient of him lives. We went to a fine Taiwan restaurant but later aunt said on our way back- that is a bit weird kind of food and is almost nothing to me (so X is going to take her for Mc Donald's supper near home.) After dinner we went to Palm Spring Garden where it is totally American community. I saw Mr. Q's house -3 floor fine decoration with pingpong table, massage room and a huge LCD TV. That is real huge I have never seen before. And I really love one thing about his home- a lot of Indian styled adornment like rugs, silk elephant art works, etc. I would decorate my home that way too to record my footprints around the world. X played some piano for us all. WOW!!!! pianist, photographer and doctor X! I am impressed. But most Americans can play piano? I regret I did not continue practicing playing piano at 10 years old... Flash back- we had tea called Lan Gui Ren -Orchid Noble Lady poured from fine china teapot, complemented with fruit and chestnuts. And then played table tennis with an equipment collecting the bouced-back balls (and who patted my butt with that racket!!), followed by a karaok session. They were impressed by my sining but who knows--two Americans, one Chinese American listening to me singing in an lousy way! LOL

 

And last but not least, I got a call from Mr. JCB!!!!! I am just so happy with all the fond memory coming back to me. He is now a CEO of a company in Geneva and single!!wow...hahah LOL It seems that every man who loved me **before(LOL) got a promotion and soar in career. Should take a chance huh?  The problem is I always think but never take a step. Natural Therapy always works better anywayzzzz.

 

"Dear JCB,

 

I just got home from some functions in my VIP clients house with my doc and his auntie. Nice evening. But the happiness that blossomed in my heart came from you today!

It was so nice to hear your voice really. I was virtually smiling allthe way on my way home alone after I said goodbye to my friends. A lot of fond memories of you and me flashed back into my mind. I am just so happy.

You are skiing now probably and I am here thinking of you hard. I think of you very often and finally I am glad we talked over the phone! That just made my day!

We talk again early next week.

 

Yours, Sweetie *giggling"

 

And tomorrow I am watching the Final Showdown of Tennis Masters in Qi Zhong Court. Good night smile~~~~

 

I feel 95% happiness these days. I wish good things will stay a bit longer and bad things pass faster. Psychological cushion. Hehe...不以物喜，不以己悲。That is what I constantly tell myself.

 

Sally Jie Jie came to Masters Cup as well. After all the Official Shirts trying on, we bought a waist bag.

 

Sally digged out a tennis ball from last year when she caught the ball thrown into the spectators from the winner standing in the center of the court.

We came back to our office to find Federer standing there at the door of his changing room talking to the staff. Sally nudged me saying you should go and get his signature for me.

Why not you yourself jiejie? huh? Hehe...instead of going ahead, without her notice, I pushed her out suddenly from behind the door. She said NOOOOoooooooo and escaped in. That reminded me of junior middle school years when girls hid behind the door to see pretty boys and felt shy and uneasy.

OK LET ME DO IT. Just a boy at our age. PRETTY BOY. LOL So What?!

I walked up to him while his back was facing me as he was still talking.

When he turned around- What a handsome young face! I was thinking to myself. That is just the face I love! LOL.

So I said with a smile. 'Congrats on your win! Could you give your name here?'

'Thank you. Yes Sure.' And he signed R.F.

'Thank you very much.' I then checked the letters--R? F? I can not recognize! Too much of a hurry! Nevertheless Sally was jumping up and down feeling so excited and happy.

In the meantime, he walked out to take the Macedes -Benz official car back to his accomodation. The moment he walked out the fans, who had waiting there for hours, began storming and screaming, squeezing in arms and hands holding the balls, books, etc., for his RF beyound recognition. (oh no mob and no stones nor tomatos.!!) 

 

I stood at the back end, looking at the feverish scene. Undeniably, he is really nice and appealing to girls. One year older than I am-young, handsome, healthy, and brings the same girl friend every year around in his world tour. Isn't that amazing!

 

It is maybe all about 'serendipity'.I am envious really. But again- Serendipity.:0)

 

It is just not my time yet.

It is pretty tiring week after working nonstop on weekends. Saving for Dec...

 

tomorrow- Tennis Masters cup standby all day on the court.

24th -charity nights(Bund 6)/California Fitness

20th -Mind-Switch Woman Think-Tank Monthly gathering (hehe... how does that sound?)

 

Now I work every day till 6:30 and walk to gym for 1 hour exercises before heading home. Always hungry and when approaching home, I always hear the dog next door barking. The young man comes home late as well and leaves his dog alone and hungry. Its barks broke my heart. So I think it is good to be single not even with a pet! Responsitility! Even for the doggie!!! hehe...

 

And today I decide to begin preserve my hair-never to cut it again and later on I will pin the fringe off my forehead. It does not belong there. I have to admit first try failed.

 

 

PhyFriday-Judy and Popeye birthday night. Came home to read email by boss after 9pm since Judy does not have internet at moom's place. Went back to her home to stay over night... You can imagine I walked back and force with her and popeye. Only good friends will do so with me, crazily.

 

Saturday -Yew cheong internationl school -Sino-Australia 35th anniversary of bilateral relation- tired out. sent the first aid box back to TS and came home for a small break before i went to office again to meet Sheau Lu, who came from my ex-company from Spore with mom and sister. They are so super nice. Esp. her sister is a sweet girl. came home at 11:30 had a massage downstais and went to bed with out a shower. Lying on the bed, i did a thing I had had no heart to do for a long time--I DELETED ALL MY TEXT MESSAGE ARCHIVES OVER THE TIME. EVERY AND EACH MESSAGES SENT BY THE MEN WHO LOVED(?) ME. Well today is 11/11, the so called 'single man day.' So that is a gift for myself.

 

Sunday got up at 6 to take a taxi to office to catch the shuttle bus at 7:30 heading to Forest Park for 8 K run. Crazy again! I finished the 8K, 2 laps of 4k each. Honestly I felt myself out of energy after 2K, and people lining up on the trail told me 'half completed.' when i to the 'finish' i was so happy finally i finished and could stop. But I heard people saying another 4K. Goodness!!! Another round to go in front of me! I almost broke down emotionally but when i saw people of all age never gave up I continuded with a bitter feeling in the throat..............................................................................after what seemed countless stops (walk) and runs, finally I charged at the finish line with my a last burst of energy and will. And I got a medal!!

 

And then I came home with Uncle tang who drove us to Physical where I did a facial spa and came home, feeling sick and headache. I am going to bed now at 7:22pm. I understand life should be lived in a moderate way. I over stretched myself really. Good night~~~ yawning....

它已经让我吃了一点小亏了。但是我仍旧在“努力”， 因为“革命尚未成功。”

 

今天一早，我从便利店买了MEJI的MINT出来，和一个看来同岁男孩同时走过一个垃圾箱。我把拔下的包装扔进里去，他似乎刚喝完豆奶，只听见“啪”他的豆奶盒子落地了--刚刚好在垃圾桶外。一个盒子被一团黄的塑料袋包着横在桶外，格外刺眼。

 

我十分生气，因为那不是“远程投射”。精度完全是可以控制的。我便说：“你已经走来边上了， 为什么不扔进里面去呢？”

他瞪我一眼走掉了。真气愤！

 

我知道很多陋习的改变不再我一个人。但是我还是要“从我做起。”幸亏我的好多朋友都出国考察过。看看日本，看看新加坡，看看澳洲，“取其精华”我们这一代定要加速我们精神文明的前进

 

Do you guys use it? It is really fun!
