唔係講笑，每一個早上，就如禱告一樣，我都會問自己

“點解我要住咁遠？

“點解我人生every single day要用2個鐘黎搭車？”

然後有人會話：

“好多人都住得好遠架，唔好投訴啦。“

然後我就自動投降。

呢個唔應該係答案，點解唔可以有一個美好d嘅vision？

其實，點解我地個城市一定要咁樣design？

點解唔可以smart d？

以一個一個小integrated multi-use complex (be it a mini city or a single building) 去self-sustain？

記得上年去某個conference，依家嘅planning regulation已經落伍（一個site只可以做residential / commercial, etc)。因為一個building應該可以allow multiple uses。例如hancock tower chicago裡面已經有offices同埋700個單位。或者未來，所有人嘅connectivity只係搭lift…

再冇需要去搭長途車，以一個walkable嘅小城形式，減少空氣污染，improve quality of life，人都開心d？ （例如，我嘅同事係火炭coca cola可樂廠返工，但住係北角。我住係沙田，但係太古返工。有無可能好理想地reshuffle下d residences & workplaces 去減少carbon footprint？天方夜譚也好，但真係好多人研究緊，點樣去optimize urban design呢）

又或者introduce congestion pricing？因為依家peak hours，係想搭的士都冇可能過到海？

“You want to know what takes real courage? Keeping your mouth shut. No matter what you might be feeling. Holding it all together, when the stakes are this high.” – HOC Season 3

1. 房間要全黑（一絲光也不能有），安靜
2. 完全放鬆五官手腳，不要鄒眉頭
3. iphone要放遠處
4. 房間溫度不要太熱
5. 手腳要夠暖，最好入睡前先來個hot shower
6. 把擔憂都暫時忘記，就當他們都不存在，是外星語言
7. 細心聆聽自己的一呼一吸，世界只剩下自己的呼吸聲

– 今朝返工，比個男人好大力咁撞開我，然後男人企咗係扶手電梯嘅左邊，阻住唒後面心急想行上月台嘅人。當我想鬧嘅時候，呢個男人開始大聲唱歌，oh原來係傻嘅。原來只要係傻，就可以justify。大家都會突然原諒。

– Btw, stop micromanaging me.

最近有兩位長輩分別因癌症和車禍入院命危，中學好友身體檢查期時發現腫瘤需要 入院進行切除手術，但同一時間，恆生指數不正常地向上狂升，相信不少人卻因此突然發財。「如意」和「不如意」，都可以隨時發生在你的身上。所以為何要死板地overplan your life with absurd rules, discipline and order，allow多點capacity for wonderment and randomness更有趣。

曾經跟一位10A狀元吃晚飯討論到「夢想」。我們倆都沒有什麼偉大的夢想，真心只想hea過每一天。結論是，與世無爭，於世無求，有何不可？今天再跟lch談及要成立一個「廢青會」(Fai Ching Club) XD 有quali的廢青，其實無處不在～

• INTENSE human interactions this weekend…exhausted. (waving the white flag) 
• Looking back the past few months, my emotions were surprisingly stable (as in, no sudden-burst-into-tears moment). Why? Thanks to House of Cards, Sherlock and Japanese dramas! There was no time / brain power left for emotional struggles.
• My time on Earth is very limited….but human beings decided to devote their time & health to their career and stay competitive. Why must we confine ourselves to such absurd “rule of life”?And why must we compete? I just want to sleep all day…..get enlightened and enjoy Mother Nature whenever I am awake. Greedily feel the world with my five senses. Many great things are in fact attached with an expiry date, by the time you retired 40 years later, they will all be long gone. After all, we only have one chance to live. 
• Now I enjoy bus rides the most, esp. @ upper deck. You can think quietly, you can look out the window, you can sit comfortably.
