要估稅囉/ Tax is coming to town

Finally.



The green bomb came to take a big piece of my paycheck.
I don't want to say a thing.


I know the tax rate in Hong Kong is already low compared to most modern courtries(My friends once told me in London is one-third what the heck?! Mama doesn't even take that much)....but here every thing is counted on our own. 


And as our government sucks. That is why I am really... sad when I calculated my loss to the tax is equivalent to the cost of a return flight ticket to Barcelona, or New Zealand. Feeling myself sponsoring our enemies guns and bullets to shoot or hunt us down. Where is the universal suffrage for unassigned candidates?


Damn.


....Ouah.


It hurts. It hurts to a level that I DON'T EVEN KNOW I LOVE MONEY THAT MUCH BEFORE TODAY.



For a few second I desperately want to get married get children get dependant grandpama get single again for the allowances. Ahh, why I need to waste money to a stubborn government like this? Wouldn't be nice if I turn it to coins and just simply throw them to the Victoria Harbour???  At least it can make some sounds.


My Barcelona....... 

Te quiero mi amor, no me dejes solo......

Takoyaki/たこ焼きの作り方




ヽ(✿゚▽゚)ノ I CAN MAKE IT!!!!

Receipt!
(Actually not a receipt at all, just a copy of the step by step on the package....adding a little imagination haha:)


  • Takoyaki powder 250g ( half of the above pack, bought it at a Japanese store)
  • 600ml water(the instruction said 800ml, but after adding 600ml I thought it is quite dilute already, therefore I stopped :P)
  • 2 eggs(here I am good at obeying)
  • Cabbage ijulienne(found one in refrig, about to expired)
  • Melted butter (just a little amount, apply onto the pan surface before adding the mash, non-stick use)
  • Octopus pellet


The whole thing is not as difficult. As observed days by days(?) in front of those Japanese quick food shops I quickly adapted. It is real easy job. I would my job could be as easy as this. 


Apply butter, 
pour half of the solution mash to the mold close to level, wait. 
After the exterior formed, add cabbage and octopus, flip it to 3/4 sphere, add some more Takoyaki paste then. Flip flip flip, perfect balls done.


Served~ I am satisfied.。:.゚ヽ(*´∀`)ノ゚.:。

Mirracle romance lyrics (Sailormoon SuperS Theme Song)/ ミラクルロマンス歌詞




(Quick translation by me:)


ごめんね 素直じゃなくて
Sorry, for not being honest
夢の中なら言える
If in dreams I could tell

思考回路はショート寸前

My circuit of thought is one-inch about to short

今すぐ会いたいよ

Right now I miss you

泣きたくなるよなムーンライト
Moonlight feels like crying

電話もできないミッドナイト

In midnight cannot make a phonecall

だって純情 

Because of pureness and innocence
どうしよう 
what should I do
ハートは万華鏡
The h
eart like a kaleidoscope

月の光に導かれ

Guided by the moon’s light
何度も巡り会うmulti times to come across
星座のまたたき数え Zodiac Signs to calculate, 
占う恋のゆくえ

to divine the ways to love

同じ地球(くに)に生まれたの
Born in the same earth

..... (๑・ิ⋖⋗・ิ๑) ///><

Have been learning Japanese for four years, this is such a weird feeling that all of a sudden I discovered myself knowing the meaning of this Japanese song, which is my all-child-time favorite.



LOVE Japan so much (^0^)////*, where I’m really looking forward to travelling there in coming October using my paid leaves
! (大阪元気?)Otherwise my annual leave holidays will be accumulated to over two week by next year in 2015…


But as intense as my works would be I couldn’t leave that long in a run. So take time before time takes me 
J
 Plans plan plans.

There are again many Sailor moon things coming too. Maybe those are for the celebration of its many anniversaries.





Looking cute, it should be kind of fulfilling a little girl’s dream when holding those cosmetic products.
 (๑→ܫ←) But I wonder if I got the courage of using them to touch-up on my makeup in the street publicly....>口<

worth checking it out anyway^0^

穿上Reebok的skyscape波鞋去踏青吧!

早前在youtube的廣告上看見澳洲名模Miranda Kerr新代言的Reebok波鞋。廣告裏的Miranda固然很漂亮,一副健身室的打扮回家,好熱好熱地跑去沖澡。



(福利時間來了!!!)
從進家門以後一直脫脫脫,
直到洗頭才發現自己的鞋子輕便到忘記了~~
[這裏其實有點誇張,即使脫褲再順手……怎可能沒留意?!]




但她嫣然一笑真的好漂亮啊。
反正家裏的波鞋也粗用一段時間(藉口),所以就來一雙作為平日的替換!顏色都不想轉了喜歡廣告的螢光粉紅!!
(即哼全場戴著墨鏡!臉上帶著景仰!就像仰望著發光的……會不小心暴露年紀!!!但真的好喜歡足下搶眼一點,當臉不夠的時候。)
















這是官網介紹的特點一列:
(http://shop.reebok.com/us/product/women-skyscape-runaround-shoes/)

Product Features
Featuring a unique molded upper with foam to maintain softness, the Skyscape women's walking shoe is a stylish option for everyday escapes.
  • Foam material in the upper for softness and flexibility
  • Low-cut design for added mobility
  • Seamless construction for minimized rub and irritation
  • Unique architecture designed to support the foot and provide all-day comfort
  • Minimal rubber accents only where needed for traction
  • Skyspring technology - features a unique design architecture designed to help support the foot and provide all day comfort
  • 5.0 ounces




重點是輕!很貼腳!
右下那裏是design自己的一款,可改為豹紋粗邊和自己的名字在鞋側等等,當然價錢會酌量逐件加。試過畫得不好,最後還是要了原款。

(如圖)














開箱圖沒有,因為我是試過覺得不錯、才想到可以寫博的。Reebok的官網可訂,價錢如上,但只限寄國內(美國)。我代購買的,不是重點所以暫不介紹,話說初春發行的這款應該也差不多快到香港,遲一兩季可以再留意。


平常穿是星期六日到街上。第一個感覺是很軟很輕!

又不是
bare foot的感覺,開頭就像是踩在棉花上,要待一陣子,才能適應這種離地感……但習慣了真的好舒服,走了一天旺角新之城也不累。
試過城巿的水泥地後,主人我無聊改了一改用途……轉場去了行山!

















膠鞋底抓地在凹凸不平的表面更好,但有時剛抓到地又抬腿的時候,有時會kick到鞋頭(可能仆),所以不太適合喪跑狂跳之輩。不過一般快走,輕量運動是很okay的選擇……那天整日在山上行走近三個小時,不算累

(很感動所以要寫!
我是城市人來,毫無運動習慣……最多追下巴士。)












(Blue mountain/NSW)



軟綿綿的質地也可以隨便帶去旅行,塞到行李箱不阻碇,方便踩來踩去。




以上,分享完畢!

Pray for MH17

Pray for MH17, pray for MH370.

In this mother earth we are as one. We cannot afford to lose any innocent one of us in the name of war.


I agree with Michael J. Sandel:
Justice, is something that your can't buy by money.


Our thoughts and prayers are with grieving families all during this difficult time.
One day Justice shall come and whip your tears away.




Prayer.


A lot of prayers.

箍牙啟動: Invisalign隱適美 #7/24箍牙啟動+ 中場感想缺點



作為一個隱適美的用家(已經完成三分之一的箍數唷呵),想想到現在、也累積差不多夠經驗,可以記下對這種科技的評語囉……這也是一篇我想寫給接受這項療程前的自己的記事;
也說不上是後悔啦,只是的確有些事是未箍牙前沒法預料到。希望能留多點心理準備給後人而已(?!)。


簡單來講,pros & cons都有。
Pro的地方很多人都知道(我都受益匪淺嘛),就是能不覺眼、可自由除戴(主因)。
//到cons的部分,讓我來羅列一些成為用客前、比較難注意的事項吧。
一般箍牙的血淚史不提(例如偏頭痛牙痠等大家都會,就跳過)。

重點是針對「隱適美」比其他箍牙方法,偶爾被困擾到的地方。(慘了我會不會被Invisalign公司抓去關牢….)//



1.客觀說,它並不算真的隱形。
大部分的用客,都會用到attachments.就是貼在牙齒表面的粒粒,白米的大小,凹凸不平留在妳的牙冠上。我初頭受不住粒粒刮口(刮口情況到第三個箍會消失),求救問醫生可不可以不落,我的牙醫(她已是白金級牙醫用戶啊,有很多客人的)指多數都會落粒粒,她說旗下只有一兩個CASE不用粒粒,最後去到不到第十個箍時都雙雙走位,返回attachments的擁抱來。

若果妳是向外的Open bite,仲會加重橡筯(臣妾不行了)。這不消提更加更加明顯,一笑,別人就會猜到妳在箍牙(當然still已經較傳統鋼刨美觀得多)















(這是我剛湊上電腦cam隨意拍的,無意扮醜、但真噁心啊)



廣告的,永遠都沒有粒粒,低調又優雅……


治療時間增加
現有療程我需要24個箍,推算是48週差點就一年(間中仲有甩箍推遲時間,嗯嗯,其實是50)
如果我用鋼箍(去過另一個consultation)
本應6-7個月就可以囉。
透明膠(加橡筋)的力度,說怎樣,
都是和金屬rock and roll是有實力差距的。



3.妳的歪牙每天都要被困很久很久,連續地。
箍盒上建議是每天22小時。
開頭滿口是膠味,不過很快就慣了。
我選Invisalign的原因,是自己的工作偶爾有sharing的成份,在講筆記的時候希望別人留意不到有鋼牙、我又能集中工作。但戴上箍之後,不止口音轉了,舌尖都給邊邊界損過幾次,最嚴重是:我試過會噴口水。超尷尬啊那次……好大一滴。


之後比較重要的training,我都一定會除箍上陣。但這就麻煩。因為工作有時會連著食飯時間又趕著工作,一不小心就一直沒戴直到放工。戴戴除除以為戴夠十七八個鐘頭也不錯,豈知道第三個箍時就甩過箍。


第四個戴不上,急急戴回前一個又多七日。醫生建議是:妳不要以為加起來戴廿個鐘頭是ok的,因為箍牙在於個箍要連續施力,戴無耐又除,個壓力就消失……做不到修正效果。

每次戴上,最少要三個小時才叫有落過力啊。



4.要刷很多很多次牙的牙垢大作戰
箍牙期間,牙膏牙刷是妳的好朋友。
起身,刷牙刷埋牙箍;返公司食過早餐,刷牙戴番牙箍,午餐後漱口牙線再戴牙箍,晚飯後,刷牙刷牙箍,宵夜後漱口牙線再戴牙箍。……我棚牙,每天起碼刷三次,牙線磨兩次,加不定期狂漱口吞薄荷糖。這輩子都沒如此重視過口腔清潔了。

無它,首先由牙醫磨過牙,牙縫未合前 空隙 超級會塞東西,
我的簡直是馬里亞納海溝啊……
隨便吃一餐都一大堆軟垢。

罪加一等還有attachments粒粒,引來大批菜肉纖維勾纏住,
有時公司吃飯傻傻不清楚,直至客戶(他是尖沙咀某醫學美容診所的醫生
總監,唉)提醒我有菜黐住,一看……(天呀~~~)


那不是一般的菜,是整整覆蓋兩隻牙的綠葉!!就像露營帳蓬那樣被attachments勾住,唉。



5.價錢。
我覺得,如果上面第一至四點都挺得住的話,
錢反而不是太大的問題(哈哈,雖然明明肉是赤的)

和傳統的相差一至兩萬,但這種科技真的新,也預測到牙齒的走向……有次在公眾地方低下頭除牙箍,一位外國女生看見我,大喊:「invisalign buddy!
說她也是從隱適美的地獄熬出頭來的……
她那口牙,

真的好白好整齊好美啊!!


希望大半年後的成果……
有電腦模擬那樣漂亮就安慰了~~~




加油啊Invisalign buddies~ J
