142: Distort
Apart from distracting, I also hate people distorting what I said.
What you said being distorted by others is just like a rabbit being caught and cannot escape from the cage after numerous tries.
Because of this, sometimes I tend to think more before actually saying out, so the dialogue may become over-organised. I want to make things as clear as possible so as to minimise being misunderstood or distorted.
But I will not say things to please people for a purpose. All I said is just what's inside and what's worth.
More natural, plus real smiles, and have some humours built in, will make the whole thing better.

141: Distract
When I concentrate in doing one thing, I hate people distracting me. I think nobody would like their concentration being distracted.
When concentrating in doing a particular thing, I would do it quickly and with clear directions and objectives, and can think of many new contents to add in. But once distracted, these things are very difficult to build up again. Just like a turned-on turbo, once running smoothly and suddenly stopped, hard to resume to the previous level.
Distractions do not mean I cannot talk to others when I cam concentrating. Just hate some people keep on irritating me without any positive contribution, and keep asking me to do something which I am not supposed to do at that moment.

140: Magic of shower
Shower or bath is done by every one everyday. It's only a routine step of cleansing.
Depends on how one thinks. The showering process can create things. Something in one's mind may sparkle and keep sparkling throughout. Some of these insights may not come when one is sitting down and working in daytime.
The showering process can wash away things. One may be crying and feeling grey before and something orange may suddenly show up to purify and finally wash away the grey.
The showering process can delete things. One may keep thinking about something and the water drips and water pressures may gradually make one forgotten and finally deleted these things.
These sound impossible that the showering process can do these things. It's not the shower itself can do, but what and how you are thinking during showering. Using a traditional soap can was away the dirties. Using a shampoo can wash away those in inner skin. Using a luxurious moisturising shampoo can wash away those and give moisture to your skin. Really? That depends on how you think.

139: Off
Going to sleep, turn off the light.
Too cold, switch off the air-con.
Wanna relax, take a day off.
Eager to show off, take it off.
Dun want it to be shown, put it off record.
Bull shit, please off.
Pretense, please off immediately.

138: Email on Happy Friday
Today our group received an email from our Floor Partner. He strongly encouraged all staff to leave before 6pm on every Friday in order to enjoy our Happy Friday and achieve work life balance.
I found no reason for not supporting his view and in fact this should have been done a few years earlier. This practice has been in place for many firms and industries. Anyway, doing late is better than not doing.
He also suggest us to work harder on Monday to Thursday and then on Friday we can enjoy the fruit. Yes, we should really work for something and if we can work for it successfully, the whole team will be even more excited, because our hard work have rewards and recognition.
In fact, working hard and for long working hours is not our main concern. Our main concern is whether our hard work, use of personal time for work, and use of our sleeping time for work can get reasonable rewards and recognition. If worked hard and someone treat it as you are supposed to do so and does not recognise and appreciate, we will be very disappointed.
I think this new regime could give us some hope, hoping the situation will keep improving.

137: iPod get repaired and recovered
Bought a new iPod in October but already had some problems in sync songs with the computer. This week have the chance to go to Causeway Bay to work, so I brought the iPod to the repair warranty repair centre in Times Square on Monday.
I have explained my problems to the Apple staff and he had tried once again before me. The first time to sync songs with his computer has no problem, but when sync the second time, the problems I mentioned came out. He said it is rare to see such a problem (I wonder) and he said I can get the repaired iPod in 4-6 working days.
The staff also said the case and the battery will be brand new (Then I earned!) but some parts inside would be second hand. Anyway, I dun care as long as it can run normally and properly.
I asked him whether he needs to send my iPod to US for repair. He said they will send to the factory in Singapore. I hope I can get the repaired one asap!
Today the staff called me and I can get back the repaired one today, very efficient. I gave them on Monday afternoon and can get back on Thursday afternoon. So quick!
The iPod I received is a brand new one. The staff discussed with me the problems again and he said I may avoid the problems by turning off the anti-virus software and the firewall of my computer before sync songs with the iPod, because the anti-virus and firewall may have installed something in the iPod and these created such problems. I took his advice and tried sync songs just now, and it is very successful!
Really happy to have the iPod running normally so that I can enjoy my music when I am out. Cool~~~

135: Underground
Some people said I was born on the street, haha... because I like hanging around streets and shops, especially after work. If there is one day I can off-work earlier, say at 7, I would probably hang around for an hour before going home.
One reason is that I hate boredom. May be you would say I have some problems, but I really dun want to go home straight after work. Then I may end up in going (window) shopping, happy hour or dinner with friends. But normally going shopping would be one person, since my friends would think this person always go shopping is crazy.
This week I will be working in Causeway Bay and I must go around la. Today I hang around and bought a pair of jeans/trousers in Underground, but have 20% off with IT Visa. Price is reasonable and quality is not bad.
Everyone needs drive. An external drive for me is to do or buy something I like to reward myself. This can be one of the many simple and effective ways to keep oneself happy all the time. But should not be too much, otherwise, will become bankrupt, haha......
