03.12.2008 | 擊鈴數字

首先解釋吓「擊鈴」即係代表印度人.. 傳說中啲印度人鐘意帶腳鏈, 腳鏈上通常會有銅鈴之類嘅裝飾, 所以行起路上嚟實「鈴鈴鈴」咁響, 遠處聞聲未見人, 所以俗稱「擊鈴人」..

晏晝見完客返公司, 順便落底層買包「擊鈴」飯上公司食.. 拎咗一肉一蛋兩樣餸啫, 個「擊鈴」老闆竟然收我四蚊, 我覺得貴.. 因為前邊同樣有個「擊鈴」人拎咗同我一樣嘅餸, 我聽到老闆只係收佢三個半!! 大細超囉, 我不過係淋多羹咖喱汁啫, 唔係咁大差別係嘛?? 我懷疑個「擊鈴」老闆計錯數, 話是話, 你有冇發覺其實一般賣「擊鈴」飯嘅「擊鈴」老闆都成日冇個standard會計錯數啊?? 我有懷疑過哩, 可能係因為「擊鈴」語發音太長, 佢哋未嚟得切up完個數字, 個腦就已經計錯數喇.. 所以你話我識得咁諗, 唔係冇道理噃~~

點解我又會覺得「擊鈴」語發音太長?? 話說某日我唔覺意聽到兩個「擊鈴」大嬸喺度交換電話號碼, 大嬸甲up咗成十秒鐘咁長, 大嬸乙竟然只係入咗半個號碼.. 跟住大嬸甲再繼續up多十秒鐘, 大嬸乙終於成功地將整個號碼入咗個電話度.. 所以你話我識得咁分析, 唔係冇道理噃~~

[後記: 以上純屬個人陳述, 絕對不含任何歧視或攻擊]went out to meet customer this morning, back to office during lunch time and hence i just went down to the basement canteen to pack some food to bring up to office as lunch.. bought indian rice with dishes, picked a meat dish plus an egg dish that's it, but the boss charged me RM4 for that, i think that was rather expensive.. because i noticed the indian guy in front of me had the same dishes but only paid RM3.50!! that was so terrigibally unfair, i had some extra curry gravy on my rice the most, but that doesn't deserve such a difference right?? i started to suspect the boss did the wrong maths, in fact do you also think that a lot of indian bosses do not have a proper standard and always make wrong calculations?? i suspect it could be that tamil pronunciation is too long, such that the maths was already done wrongly in their mind before they could even finish pronouncing the numbers.. hmmm, not exactly invalid for my thinking right??

and why do i think tamil pronunciation is long?? there was once i bumped into two indian ladies in the train, they were exchanging numbers then.. X spoke for like 10 seconds and Y, surprisingly, could only key in half of the numbers into her phone.. X then continued with another close-to-forever 10 seconds, only after that Y could finally have the complete number keyed into her phone.. hmmm, not exactly invalid for my analysis right??

02.12.2008 | 鐵柱成針

我今年為自己訂下一個目標, 就係要為呢個blog做到每日一貼, 唔會多亦唔會少.. 轉眼間已經去到最後30日嘅衝刺, 先唔好諗埋啲咩年尾回顧或者新年期望, 至少呢一年嚟我的確好enjoy寫blog呢家玩意.. 不過永遠都係嗰一句啦, 大家嘅支持係我無限嘅動力..

寫寫吓好似唔覺意識到好多blog界嘅朋友, 仲同其中幾個見過面添(應該會陸續有來啩??), 我覺得幾好喎, 可以識多啲新朋友(雖然我比較慢熱).. 綜合意見話我知, 大家都覺得我好鬼得閑, 因為每日都有源源不絕嘅靈感同題材, 而且仲過份到中英雙語出擊添.. 哈哈, 唔好意思, 其實大家見到嘅係個成果, 背後有啲時候嘅難處大家睇唔到啫.. anyway老土地講句: 「只要有恆心, 鐵柱都可磨成針」, 我會繼續加油~~set myself a goal this year, that is to have a new entry per day for this blog, not more and not less.. time flies within a wink and i'm now left with the remaining 30 days to fight with, just not to think about any year-end review or new year resolution yet, at least for this entire year i have been enjoying the game of blogging very much.. as i always say, the support from all of you out there is the major motivation for me to keep going..

without myself realising i think i've been making quite some blogger friends all the way, and even have the chance to meet up some of them recently, and i supposed there are more to come, that is kind of nice to know more new friends (although it might take me sometime to get closer).. gathering comments from others, it tells me that most of the people are impressive that i'm able to blog everyday with ideas and topic without fail, and what's more impressive is the bilingual entries in English and Chinese!! haha, well, what you see is the result, what you don't see is some difficulties i might be facing sometimes.. anyway as the old chinese proverbs says, a bar of iron continually ground becomes a needle, as long as you hold the patience and perseverance..

01.12.2008 | 跌破眼鏡

嗰日同幾位blogger朋友見面, 大家都跌晒眼鏡咁問我, 點解咁靜唔多講嘢?? 佢哋話睇過我寫嘅blog, 同我MSN傾過偈, 都以為我會係個開籠雀, 其實唔係架.. 可能當時有鐵拿先生喺度, 所以相對之下我變成咗一個暱埋一二角嘅箴默者囉, 哈哈.. 令大到家大失所望, 真係罪過..

老實講, 我真係個比較慢熱比較被動嘅人嚟架, 我唔會同人見面就一見如故咁孖埋一齊噃.. 寫嘢我可能可以天花龍鳳(可能有時間可以鋪陳思考), 不過如果去到面對面嘅話, 我好大可能會係第二個人, 唔通係雙子座雙重性格影響?? 除非真係好close好投緣, 我覺得我係需要啲時間先可以同人熟絡上嚟, 所以咪就係畀人一種好唔友善嘅錯覺囉.. 其實我係好友善好nice嘅一個人, 你需要認識我耐啲咁啫.. :)met up with few blogger friends the other day, everyone was surprised why i was so quiet throughout the whole session.. they have seen the way i write my blog, they have chatted with me through MSN, and the first impression they have on me is that i would be a happy chatter, but not really i would say.. maybe mr tagnan was there and hence i comparatively became a very quiet person hiding in a corner, haha.. sorry for disappointing guys, i know i know..

frankly, i see myself as someone rather passive and might get a little longer to get close to, i won't be overzealously tagging along with somebody after just few casual conversations.. i might be very enthusiastic with words (perhaps that is because i have enough time to think and organise??), but when it comes to face-to-face, i most probably would be another person, rather shy and a bit reserved, could this kind of "split personality" because i'm a gemini?? unless i have known the person for long enough and really close with, i really need time to get close and personal with him or her, and that is why people always mistaken that i am unfriendly and protective.. tell you what, i am actually a very friendly and nice person, just that it may takes time to realise this..
