I feel very uneasy every time i see my maid, she has been doing a lot of things that annoying me so much. I am not sure whether this is due to my hormonal changes or what unknown nerves, i simply do not like her. I feel very irritating when she talks nonsense or when she forgets the things i wanted her to do. At first, i treated her very nice, or maybe i can say i never treated her like a maid, but day after day, she was like having her own comfort zone and getting lazier, the most serious happened was she asked me to clean the kitchen cabinet by myself. Gosh, then what for i need a maid? For making me angry? I really felt like sacking her immediately and that afternoon we had a terrible quarrel till my man asked us to stop. But, i didn’t settle the things like just stopped the quarrel, i then told her she can leave anytime as what i pay her definitely no proportional as what she has contributed for me. But the next day she still came and she looked more humble and more hardworking, perhaps she knew that now is economic downturn, in such a situation, she is hard to find a high pay job again. Actually she has improved a lot, but of course, sometimes she like a slacker. No one is perfect, so i didn’t expect much from her, i just hope she can shut her mouth as she likes to ask me how much of this or what for you bought this, this morning, she repeated those irritated sentences again, so without giving her a face, i scolded her immediately. You are a maid, don’t act like you’re my mother!

I am very tired now as i didn’t sleep well yesterday night. My mind like never got rest and was thinking a lot of negative happens. Maybe i have been too boring these days, or maybe due to long term being cooped up at home for taking care of my two little monkeys, so i simply feel like my minds really at the brink of breakdown. I need a good pillow talk with my man, but he has been busying ever since the beginning of November, so whenever he is home it simply means it is time for him to go to bed. What can i do? Pressure him more or just swallow the bitter saliva myself? I have opted the second, that’s no point to stress him more.
Life? What’s this life for?

If you’re happened to be a retrenched staff from current economic crisis, then don’t panic, as you still can look for other job which suited you the best. Do remember, tomorrow is always a new day for you, so just take it easy for what you have lost on today. Looking for a job isn’t as hard as you think, like the jobs in retail have been bringing a lot of successful hopes for retrenched and jobless people. So why do you still mourn around? Better spur yourself for more further challenge and embrace your new chapter of life.

I was asked by my friend where was the best and affordable hotel in HK, actually i hardly stay in HK as normally we would have a day trip. But i ever stayed in Royal Park Hotel in Shatin before, which the hotel room was quite impressed for me. The room is spacious and even have a little kitchen with basin and nice bar faucets, the most importantly is the room rate is considered cheap as compared to others 4-stars hotels. If a family with kids, i would suggest them to rent such a room which is pretty convenient for them.

Economic downturn has been affecting a lot of people, just like my man’s company, his staffs has been discussing how to cut cost in order to survive in this tough period. So some initial plans are NO SALARY INCREMENT, NO BONUS and even NO ANNUAL DINNER. That’s really sucks to hear such a news. As an expatriate, getting bonus is not just for getting extra for reward, yet, bonus is for us to pay a lot of debts such as house loan, car loan and even for the expenses spent during Chinese New Year. After heard such a bad news, i really wonder should i start my home based business so that my man no longer a sole breadwinner, perhaps i should give it a try as better save for rainy day.

I have been watching “The Gem of Life” for a week, i like the show so much and the show simply reflects the life as if our normal daily life. I watch it through youtube, so the quality actually is quite bad as hard to see the actors and actress clear. Although i have LCD TV at home, at night, due to we want to culture a good reading environment to our kids, so we normally do not on our TV, at least not until they fall asleep. Basically, we do not have any entertainment whenever the kids are around.

I had very strong craving of pizza last Thursday, so off i told my man that how about we have our dinner at pizza hut, he was fine with my idea. But, he was too busy, and had the last minute meeting at about 4pm, due to that he could not come back home on time which normally around 6:30pm. At 5+pm, i received his call and was told that he would be at home around 7:30pm, so i just waited patiently at home. He came back as he promised but i had never known that he had been busying for the whole day, the first thing he did when he just reached home was turned on his notebook and connected the phone to the meeting, he then talked and talked till 8:30pm, and his wife looked extremely pale and lying on the bed like a dead fish. I was so hungry, and still had to look after 2 monkeys and jailed them so that they won’t disturb my man.
He then came in the room and said “let’s go now”, actually i didn’t feel like going after few hours of waiting and would like to make an delivery service, but he insisted that we go out and dine at Pizza Hut. So off we went. But funny that, he still talking on the phone like the meeting is never ended and the conversation last till about 12am. Do you understand, his ears had never free, so did his mouth at the entire night, the whole way to Pizza Hut and back home as well as the whole dinnet time. And he talked pretty loudly when we were at Pizza Hut. Luckily there were only few tables of diners at Pizza Hut because it was quite late already. That’s why i told him we should have better stay at home and asked for delivery, that’s really no point to dine outside and i was the one who needed to take care of 2 little boys. I didn’t blame on him, as i knew he tried his best to come back early and tried his best to satisfy my craving, but, i just had no heart to see him rushing at that way, he should better stay at office and that’s the way which could simplify his work.
The phone meeting stopped at about 12 midnight, but he still had to wait for those reports for checking the mistakes before he could send them out to his superior. All these done around 2 am before he could finally give himself a good sleep. However, i don’t think he had a good rest as the baby had been crying on and off for the whole night.

I couldn’t remember who told me this : -
“thinking too much can make you obese”
Actually, i do not know how true of this sentence, but one thing for sure is “thinking too much can make you have more white hairs”, so, if you wanna be a pretty lady, just don’t think too much of unnecessary matters. That’s why, i just continue this domain with GlobeDomain…i hate to think why the government of CN wanted to block this and that, and i hate to think which web hosting companies are safe for me to transfer my domain to, so, being the simple, just clicked the button and continue paying the domain through PAYPAL. Everything just be settled within 1 minutes.
I really have to think more positive way in order to stay prettily.

I would like to go and hunt for my Adobe Lightroom, actually i had been searching around during my last trip back to my home country, but just couldn’t find any. I do not sure whether i can get one here or not, but sincerely hope that i can find an English version here. I like the effects that given by Lightroom, especially the PRESETS are terrific to create more superb view to photos. My previous Lightroom trial version has expired, i simply has no mood to process my tonne of photos without Lightroom. Perhaps not a mood problem, just myself feel super lazy these days.

My friend is thinking to buy the tape drives, according to my knowledge, Quantum is the best brand since it is the world largest supplier of tape drives. But my friend who is always calculative is actually thinking to buy an used tape drives, if he really wants an used one, then better he looks for those authorized store that gives refurbished service otherwise it is wise for him to buy a new one.
