愛一個上一課

像有感情 到天星 看風景
他似無還有偏卻 不承認
為了此人 算初戀 太高興
失去承受更悲傷的本領
然後遇著 我至今的經典
曾緊張得似應戰 一晚渡無限風險
然後漸漸 沉重到 不願見
人會變 情會厭 從沒甚麼保險
誰擔保可不可 有一個愛一個
為何我不可 值得好點結果
即使悔恨又如何 別離得多不痛楚
其實帶淚都該慶賀 失戀不怕多
得多天的許可 愛一個上多一課
自由也不錯 被吹熄的愛火
光影總算照亮過 想開心如何懶惰
無謂算盡機關只要情動 也不敢錯過
逃避寂寞 期待吃喝玩樂
談得多戀愛更覺 不領會何謂快樂
誰是玩伴 誰是愛的幻覺
誰與我 能永遠 留在夢中天國

Stanley Sunday

Last Sunday, i woke up at 10am, thinking if we are really going to Stanley. (Actually Wing told me on friday we are going to, but somehow I am not very sure. I thought she is going to call on sat to confirm, but she didn't. So i was still in my warm and confortable bed till 10:30am, (I was supposed to meet with Wing, Christine and Carol at 11:00am) ... haha, turned out I was late as usual. :P Sorry girls.)

Haven't come to Stanley for....... um, no idea how long, I feel like the last time was in middle school or maybe longer. (wow, it's pretty long time.)

Anyway, Wing - the real local who knows everything - knows how to get there, so i don't need to worry about getting lost. :P (PS: i am the local who knows nothing. :P)



The pier
I think we can take the tiny boat to some nearby islands..


Some kind of mark, i wonder what it means..I can't read acient Chinese.

(L-R) Me, Christine and Carol
It was so windy that day, wind were blowing from all directions, it's so difficult to get a nice picture. I had tons of pictures with my hair all around my face, messy. And Wing kept taking pictures of us. Sigh, I totally forgot to bring my camera.


Street View (nth special, DB is 10 million times better I think. Sigh, I want to go to DB.)


Wow, XXXXL.. it's HUGE...... (umm, i feel small standing next to it.)

At the beach


Foggy..


Tiny Quail Egg. (One of the traditional HK snacks, but it's very rare, you can barely find the wooderb cart that sells quail egg now.... )and this is not a DOG POOP, Winnie!


Since all the girls are all dressed up (kinda), not too ready for walking on the sands (look at Wing, she has her heels on. :P hehe, I got my sandals on, I'm so ready for BEACH, what I need is the SUN and BIKINI~)

Anyway, we decided to just sit down at the stairs and gossip... and of course we took PICTURES. That's what we do when we are bored.


Me, Christine and Wing
We took pictures...stupid one. (HA~of course I'm not gonna show you guys.)
and Christine was showing me the pictures..LOOK AT MY SMILE :D :D


Christine: Hey mag, look at this...
Me: What?


Let me LOOK CLOSELY...
Me: OMG, i look HORRIBLE. (My face changed.)


I was mimicing the ugly picture ^3^ (a cute version tho!) - and Wing is taking pictures again.... ^^

After the beach, we decided to walk back to the market area for some food.

:D YEAH! We were starving..


Potato Salad.. with something(!?) HAHA, i forgot :P who cares, it's yummy!


Fish and chips. (yumm, love fried food a lot.)


Brownie and Vanilla Ice-Cream. (BEST. love it)


Typical Carol post. (hardly find one picture without her "V" on.)


I took this picture, Wing is very seductive, isn't she? ;) hahaha, I am bad :P (maybe she is going to kill me for putting this up? but.. i m sure she doesn't come to my blog often.)

Domon Sapporo Ramen

Friday night, I went out eat with Kio. CORRECT, eat out again. Sigh, what happen to my diet plan... =.= Summer is COMING.. and i want to buy new bikini... :D Anyway, Well, Crazy Kio was my former coworker in LK, she left the office to a new company (=hell) half year ago and we tried to have dinner every month. I haven't see her for almost 2 months, (She looked a lot different than the last time i saw her. more womanly.. lol which is a good thing.. hehe) We postponed our "dinner date" many times, and finally time is setted on Friday. (She was 99% close to going out with Isabel that night (another girl in LK), but I told her YOU PROMISED ME TO EAT WITH ME ON FRIDAY!!!!!!!! *~KILL~* then she went to tell Isabel she had a date with me... lol) (It's funny, last week I thought i was going to eat with her, but she texted me last minute and told me she was in CHINA. O_o, and the week before, I told her i will be out with my girls.... um, seems like it's very hard for us to make time for each other....sigh!)

Anyway, FINALLY we got to see each other. We went to have Japanese Ramen in Langham Place, MK.



I really have nothing to say about the restaurant, we were more into catching up and chat. This was my ramen. (umm. really not much special, just a regular ramen.)



I always have a thing with dumplings, those are yummy. the skin was thin, you can almost see the pork and onion thu the skin. (I guess it's very hard to make crappy dumpling, right? since dumpling is something very easy to make.) - umm, I so want to have some dumpling now. REALLY REALLY CRAVING FOR DUMPLINGS..... I wonder if I organized a dumpling night, will people come and attend my "party"? like making, cooking, and most importantly, EAT them. lol Sigh, I always want to do some cooking with BFF, like what I would do with my girl friends in US, but then, I don't have a kitchen and a place. SIGH, BIG SIGH.


Grills - (From left to right: Chicken Wings, some mushrooms, sausage number 1 and sausage number 2) ok the wings were tasty, (actually i think it's very hard to make crappy wings as well, wings are totally idiot-proof.) Mushrooms were okay, kind of bouncy. but those two grilled sausages thing, it's odd, weird, (Kio didn't even finish the whole thing :P) There's some cartilages kind of stuff in the sausage, it just feels super weird. =.,=
We chatted a lot, about all kind of things, and especially about the big thing happened on Friday night, right before we got off work, THREE girls got laid off on FRIDAY, they have to pack their thing and leave within an hour. HOLLY COW. Everyone in LK was a bit scared, coz this is a bit unexpected. (Someone was joking that those three girls are not cute enough, and they are getting old. lol) anyway, hopefully no one will laid off in this coming year. (most importantly, I won't be fired.. lol guess I really need to play less msn, blogs, and focus more on my work!)



After dinner, we went to have dessert - Cotton shaved ice. This is Mango and yogurt favor, it was okay. I guess we were focus on the chat rather than eating. :D half of the ice melted before i even noticed.

Anyway, it was a great night. It's great to see her and talk to her. (but crazy Kio need to be tame a bit, she spanked my ass in front of the mtr station, my left ass was in pain for at least 1 minutes. =.= and it's in the famous MK MTR station, I believed 100+ eyes were looking at me when she did it..*shy*) (now i kind of think, maybe crazy Kio is in love with me. lol .... jk )

Mahjong night at David's flat

Mahjong night at Dav's house on Wednesday.
Mahjong, mahjong.....umm, I'm really bad at playing all kind of games, poker, big 2, Mahjong or video games. So usually if people want to play any of those, I'll just stand next n watch. But tonight was different, haha, coz i was playing with two and a half "gweilos"... um, I think I still have a chance to win right? (lol..)

Seriously, I think I only played mahjong once, and it was 15+ years ago. My sister won every single games and i was frustrated. So after that, I never really play mahjong.

Anyway.... one and only pic from the night..

Peking Duck Pizza from Pizza Express



um, I thought it was some new invention, but obviously it's not. I googled. There's bunch of threads flowing online about "Peking Duck Pizza". um, I'm so outdated. To me, Peking Duck Pizza tasted like Peking Duck on a piece of crusty bread. Umm, pizza is so western and Peking duck tastes so eastern. I felt really weird that the two mix together. It just not feeling right. Kinda odd to me. :P i still like normal pepperoni.

Anyway, we played more after dinner. It was fun. cuz we all (or just me.) don't really know what's going on, we don't even know we have to get one more from the back after we 槓。It's very funny...(we definitely need the book "mahjong for dummies") lol...

It was a great great night actually. (coz i had a whole cup of green tea ice-cream and a lot of maltesers in one night. XD Thanks Dav.)

定食Doraya

Wing and I went out on Thursday. I checked openrice all afternoon trying to look for a nice restaurant in TST to go to l, and finally decided to go to the Doraya japanese restaurant (TST). Heard they have some very nice raw tuna bowl.

Raw fish with rice, made me think of the Korean raw fish bibimbap (hae-do-bap) that I love. Joe always took me there (when we were still together.) With the Korean one, they put a lot of vegetables and apple along with salmon, tuna and other kind of raw fish in the rice and mixed them with hot sauce. (like how they do it with bibimbap). Oh, those are really mouth-watering. Maggie loves korean food. However, I have no idea where can I find a shop in HK that have this. :( sigh, I would definitely go back to US just for the Korean food. (why not Korea? Hehe, coz I can't speak Korean.) anyway, no more Korean talk. Let's talk about the Doraya.


Food was okay, this is my "藍鰭吞拿魚扒飯". The rice is a bit soft and sticky, I guess it's bez they used japanese rice? Not bez they put too much water? Anyway, the fish steak was nice, they slightly grilled the steak, and cut it into perfect size. Where I put one in my mouth, the steak was literally melted in my mouth. (wah....) I especially love the sause that goes with the steak, it makes the plain rice perfect. I am not a big fan of green onions, but those sause made green onion tasty. (I really duno why..)(price: HKD$98)


Wing's "鐵板藍鰭吞拿魚飯". Honestly I don't think Wing likes her set, she kept complaining the steak n other stuff, she didn't even finished all her fish. She thinks the fish shld be hot, but come on, it's raw fish bowl, if it's hot, then the fish will be fully cooked, n won't be raw. And her rice didn't have the special sause or green onion, so guess she didn't enjoy as much as i did.

LK Annual Dinner

Company Annual Dinner

Finally got some time to put up the pictures, damn, i was so busy this couple days, i don't even know why. :P Anyway, it was a fun day....
I was kind of nervous that day because obviously Mr. Boss think it's boring to just have dinner with the whole company. He came up with the idea that all us have to do a talent show, competing for $6800. I was kind of pissed at the other designers (shuu...) because apparently design department are the least talented and creative department out of others, we couldn't settle for anything until one day before the dinner, and what we came up was really lame. (Anyway, it's over. Hopefully next year, we won't have to do sth like this.. cross my fingers n toes.)

Before the show


Can you find me? hehe...



Preparation.. (Look at all those props.. we made it. oh well, i mean some other designers did it, not me. i was busy doing sth more important, eg: msn)

SHOW TIME


Administrative Dept - Eric, one of our two male staffs, made us a Scottish wine cocktails. (wait, i kind of forgot, is that Scottish? or Holland? or some other places... maybe British .. never know how it tastes, coz I was not the one who try them. :P )


Administrative Dept - Preformed Wonder Girl's "Nobody".
Great job, they did great; great outfit, great choreography, great lighting, no wonder they won the $6,800.


Sales - Wing's Team (in case you can't see them well, Wing in purple legging trying to do the lion dance....lol) Good job Wing, it's hilarious!!

umm, in our HK office, the ratio between male n female employees are very uneven. We have 60+ girls, and 2 guys only... ||| (and most of our girls are young and pretty. what happen to our BOSS, why only hot babes? I want cute guys...!!! )


Iris, Maggie, Clory


Clory, Fiona, Zoe


Sales (International) Dept. + boss in gray sweater..


Shipping Dept.


Boss's wife and cute son. :)

Time for lucky draw..
this year , the 1st winner can get $18,000, 2nd winner get $8,800, 3rd winner get $6,800 and 4th winner get $3,800 ... and those we are not lucky still get $800 cash. (so basically everyone will get at least $800. lol) I was texting/ MSNing non-stop after my performance, (My heart was bumping FAST) I didn't even know what's going on, till I heard someone was calling my name: MAGGIE LAM (What? me? What? Seriously?) I put down my iphone and went up stage.

and look what I GOT: wwahahahhaha CASH...CASH...CASH...
(I was holding the $, Christine's hands in the left (with purple nails), and Wing's in the right. (with cute diamond ring frm her bf. :D))


Oh my GOD....

The $18,000 winner (girl in yellow sweater)....


damn, she is so so so LUCKY.

so our company states that the first 3 winners have to take out 20% and buy the whole company lunch. (Luckily i was the 4th. :P)

First lunch:
We ordered like crazy, basically we ordered whatever we want since we don't have to PAY at all.
Look at those dim sums....


Blind them, i guess. :D
