While lurking around our email directories, I found out where our Hong
Kong counterparts are located, right across Bank of China...
I remember I used to walk to the bus stop across Bank of China from Lan
Kwai Fong to take the night bus back to City One.

新加坡用網路行銷來「促婚」，3 分鐘寡婦廣告引發瘋狂討論

五月初，新加坡那邊出了一則很特別的廣告，在電視上播出後，引起極大的爭議，各位可以點上面參考一下。這則廣告是由新加坡國家級的「社區發展部」所拍攝（Ministry of Community Development, Youth and Sports ）它是一則「支持婚姻」（pro-marriage ）的廣告，據說兩年前新加坡曾有一場市調，顯示許多適婚的新加坡年輕人仍在待婚中，因為找不到完美對象。

Ho ying & ho sik!

I posted my sublet information on craigslist.

A girl from "outside country" replied with some kind of weird suspicious fonts. I thought she was a scammer at the first glance. But since she offered to send a check to me right away, I let her be my top candidate and rejected all other offers.  A check of $4500 arrived just a few days ago.  She told me to subtract out the rent amount + $150 fee for running around, and told me to transfer the rest to her "travel agent" in Florida.  That agent called me at 7:55am yesterday morning and ~10 times throughout the day asking if I have completed the transfer.  I couldn't make the transfer online on Western Union because my cards weren't verified (THANKS!), so I had to do it in person. I was holding onto $3360 in cash. The only thing that was stopping me from making the transfer was that iPhone Safari did not work with Western Union's location finder.  Cap. gave me a call out of the blue right before I was about to find the location, he told me that I should hold off to at least wait till the check is cleared.

Today, she gtalks me again urging me to call my bank. I called BA and BA said there's no way to verify if the check is valid and I just have to wait to see if it will be bounced. The good thing is that BA does have an image of the scanned cashier check and the rep. gave me the name of the bank and the number of the check. I called Colonial Bank and asked for that check number, the rep. said "I just checked. We have never issued a check with that serial number. That is a fraudulent check."....

.... @#$$#^$%^#$&*&$#W$@$^*&#$%^....

I said, "Well, I am glad I called.".

---

4:29PM
That girl wrote me, "Thanks so much dont worry the check will clear your Bank tomorrow you dont need to call colonia since the check is in your bank ok..."

What can I say to tell her that I have already found out this is a fraud?

岩岩開朋友既車送左朋友去機場﹐俾朋友一個 hug 講左再見﹐
望住佢走入機場﹐突然間有 D 想念朋友了 (To 朋友的女朋友﹐只係朋友的想念而已。。。)
畢竟唔計舊年﹐打從一月開始每一兩日就見朋友一次﹐
經歷左好多都係朋友在身邊提點, 突然間三個禮拜唔見係有 D 怪怪的。
但係三個禮拜都唔係好長架喇﹐ 再想﹐自己聽日都要離開啦﹐
一年以黎每日總要去漢堡 hall 逛一下﹐
突然間三個月唔駛去﹐有 D 唔慣唔捨得。。。

o係路上﹐我話呢一年過得太快了﹐好似乜都無做過咁。
佢話﹐“我們都做了很多好不好﹗快就是代表過得開心嘛。。。”
真的﹐這學期的確做了很多事﹐
開心嗎﹖是開心的﹐但也有不開心。
以前 Berkeley 每星期既 Events 同功課考試前夕既 all nighters 好似 Deja Vu 咁再現。
每日都留o係學校既生活話充實又唔算充實﹐話荒廢又絕對一 D 都唔係荒廢。
說實在的﹐我覺得這一年過得很滿足﹐但滿足得黎又過得好。。。無言。
始終﹐有得必有失。我唔想失去既已經失去左。
係好好好唔開心﹐但係唔知可以做乜。。。

I have a flight credit for $120 on Travelocity but the rebooking fee is $180. The price for a new ticket is $560 dollars from SFO to PIT.  So if I was to use my "credit" on a one-way flight, I will have to pay $620 instead of $150 booking a brand new flight without using my credit.

Last time I canceled a flight I lost $469. This time $180 is gone.
I guess I should never ever cancel flights anymore, cuz to use the "credit" I end up paying 4 times more.
What kind of stupid cancellation system is this?

I just got home from our "95-768: Professional Partying* ( End of Semester Party)", my first diversity party. There were only 3-4 Chinese left and mostly Indians towards the 2nd half. I didn't expect it to be so much fun as I have only had fun partying with Chinese all these years. I miss my dear friends during the party, but at the end, I loved this party a lot dancing with the hotties, seeing the drunken crazies, and driving the drunks home.

Thank you our lovely DJs Manolis and Aditya, and our hosts Johnny and Ryan.
Johnny, I feel bad for trashing up your pad...

I guess this concludes our first year in Heinz. XOXO.

I will write more when this hits me later.

好耐無試過 as clueless as 我而家咁.
我諗呢班 D slides 比 CS162 O.S. 對我黎講更加完全唔知講乜.
好彩我唔係 CS major. 好彩而家讀緊 management.
而家半 peh 狀態. 仲有一個鐘頭, 我而家先至讀左後半個 sem 既 2/3.
上半個 sem 既... 一早就已經放棄左.
不過我完全無介意呢班成績會唔好. 因為自問亦無俾心機., 對呢班完全無興趣.
我諗都係要打住天才波咁等待住三個鐘頭後第一年既完結喇... =(
...
可能我真係將我 D oil 俾左 babe.... *籍口*
不過我覺得 babe 真係好叻...
我諗我連 babe 一半既堅強都未必有...

Me: Does the Hawaiian Coffee has coffee in it?
Barista: ...(-_-''')... all coffee has coffee in it...

Tomorrow will be the last day of class.

Time flew by so fast. Two semesters have already gone by. What is left is merely just one summer and one semester before the end of my "vacation break from work"... ><

I still remember the excitement, the anxiety, the passion I once had when I first set foot in CMU. I remember looking around and realizing that there are so many smart people around me from around the world.  I saw their passion to pursue their dreams in the land of opportunity. It sounds cheesy, but seeing this made me feel ashamed of myself for taking Berkeley and CMU for granted.  I remember working my bottom off every single day. I remember getting my first A+. I rememer waiting everyday for the day to go back home...

這個學期, 沒有了s******r party, 沒有了 Halloween haunted house, 沒有了 black Friday shopping spree. 多了的卻是每天在 HBH 哭的一個深刻經歷, 得回來至愛的舊朋友s, 從新認識了疼我的新朋友s... 一個 job offer...

By the way, I didn't publish this entry earlier...
I will be working just one block from Ground Zero in the summer...!

I still can't believe it... New York, baby~ XXDDD

Me: so what are in midtown?
Me: what companies?
Me: i see wall st. close to me
YRC: most companies
Me: i know tiffany&co is on wall st haha
YRC: yes
Me: haha i sound so woman
... ...-__-''

話說回來, 如果我上半個學期"滴"起心肝搵暑期工而沒有將時間放o係某一些事情上,
如果美國銀行唔係因為收購美林而延遲招人 process,
我可能一早就搵到一份無呢份咁好既暑期工...

所以呢, 一切都係已經安排好的, 事情發生既背後一定有它的原因.
我應該如常的把一切放在祂手上, 做個乖乖女...
