Summer Breeze

With the humidity and the heat going higher and higher, there’s no doubt, the summer is back. Personally, I like summer. One of the biggest reason is that I can go to the gym and just sweat, Sweat, SWEAT. YEAH~ After April 14, I'll be working for my current company for a year. It's easy to work for ONE year in this company since there are always so many events going on each day. Sometimes a Filipino gets injured so I have to visit the hospital with them for 3 days in a row. There are always new and old workers coming and going. One day I’ll have to take someone to the labour centre because they are leaving ahead of schedule or some new employees arrive so I have to take them for immigration to get their ARC (Alien Resident Certificate). Monthly meeting is just everyday work.

How to mend a broken heart

How do we correct/ undo a mistake? I know how to fix a paper work mistake is as simple as spending more time on it. Yet, for a passed experience which one hopes had not happened, what can I do to LET GO of the sadness and walk out of the darkness towards that sunny hopful light?

I’ve been getting more and more used to with driving my company owned minivan, I overheard a radio station doing a Taro mind game and they said they could offer advice, via selecting a card they offered over the airwaves. So I did. Then, I had to find out the real reason why I was neglecting going to Europe for my wedding.

It's all because of my past has been haunting me. I have been carrying all this baggage around. And I was not even aware of what I was doing to myself. All the excuses and reasonable reasons now all seem absurd.

Past, what a past.

Tears weeping, weeping tears... Now as fresh and reborn as I can be, I feel really alive.

Yes, I am alive.

Europe, wait for me, I will be there in late July 2008!

So my VISA4UK is here....


So we’ve spent the past months running around gathering from paperwork for our wedding date; from having documents sent from the UK to TW (applications forms, booking forms and Andrew's birth certificate) to making dozens of phone calls and countless e-mail. Not only that, but I had to negotiate with my bosses to get a month off as well as make two trips to the visa office; first in Kaohsiung, then an interview at the headquarter in Taipei on June 13. The interview was mainly about going there to show these people that we have enough evidence to prove that we have not just met right before our big day and to prove that, even after we are married, we will still be together. So, we this time offered them our house lease and both of our working contract. We also prepared quite a few of our Google chat dating back in August, 2006. They photocopied the first two items and left out the chatting ones. Guess they are not too interested in being nosy of other people's "casual talks".......Anyway, hew....finally…I got my passport last night—AND IT HAS A LOVELY NEW MARRIAGE VISA IN IT!!

Karma

So, the other day Sharon Stone commented that what happened in Shi-chuan, China, was totally the Chinese government's karma. She suggested that the earthquake happened because of their cruel policies and that's why they now needed to suffer and take all the consequences. Ge... what's karma then?

People mostly believe that if we do something good, we will have good deeds returned to us in one way or another. On the other hand, suppose anyone did something evil, then that event one day will come back and kick that person's ass. However, how do we know what karma comes back when they do come back? What signs can we judge/tell IT IS WHAT IT IS?

A lot of people in Asia tend to believe to become a good person – even a highly successful person - they not only have to rely on their own efforts but also their ancestors. So they burn lots of good incense and paying tribute to both them and the Gods.

Karma is a complex yet simple word to be thinking and talking about.


Power v.s Belief


People tend to say that "BELIEF IS POWER". Yet, I have a question. Do we have belief first so there's a power or, do we have power in the beginning so we started to believe in it? Yeah, a tricky question. It's like, did we have eggs before chickens or chickens exited ahead of eggs?

Funny thing

I have been feeling depressed since last night. My fiance said it's because of "Sunday blue". It detained till a couple hours ago. Then the minute I tuned in to ICRT. I realized this thing I lacked was "M-U-S-I-C"

Music has started my day. my working days....I’ve been feeling depressed since last night. My fiancé said I’ve got the"Sunday blues". And it didn’t let up until a couple hours ago. Then the minute I tuned in to ICRT and I realized the thing I was lacking is "M-U-S-I-C”. Music has kicked started me week!
