太陽照常升起

2014/2015,其實地球照常轉動,太陽照常升起。不過我地人類叫呢段期間做2015,所以1月1日,大家嘅心情突然又充滿熱情希望。

時間過得好快,考會考已經係9年前,SARS已經係10+年前,但感覺好似冇幾耐之前一樣。Stephen Hawking睇完Theory of Everything話:”it makes you realize how short life is when they cut out the boring bits.” 人類好彩記性差,boring and painful bits 都可以隨著時間而fade out lu.

2014總結

Everything that kills me makes me feel alive
Everything that drowns me makes me wanna fly

看到新聞 “Facebook Apologizes for Pain Caused by ‘Year in Review’ Posts”。
的確,不是每一個人的2014也是充滿喜悅/值得回顧的。
我也一樣,看完Fb幫我random拼出來的Year In Review,
我也沒有意欲去share出來,man,2014是乏味的(YoY來說)

點講呢,如果2014係一塊puzzle,
呢一年係由好多塊tiny pieces組成,size都好平均,一樣咁細。
顏色方面,當然有黑色有彩色,但overall嘅色調都係比較暗淡。
Well, 就好似instagram加咗淡淡嘅filter咁。

If I am going to give a score to my year…(like giving a rating to a japanese drama / movie)
2014 deserves a……..45% only.

2015 will be a better year, I hope!

Muji the 奸商

Muji 0.5mm 啫喱筆一直係我既最愛。
我去太古分店,職員含蓄表示呢隻筆已經賣哂。
ok,合理嘅,咁受歡迎。
點知去到銅鑼灣分店,職員話係全香港全線賣哂。
點知一轉身就發現,依家竟然要一pack咁賣!

一支8蚊,一盒8支筆,理應賣平少少,竟然係賣65蚊!
搞錯呀!
(天音:但你都係買了,你欣然接受了奸計)
