Low EQ

I mentioned that I thought my EQ is getting lower and lower these days. Yesterday I saw another prime example of that. I was playing Super Mario Galaxy on Wii, and was stuck at one level. So I kept trying and trying, and after an hour I got extra-ordinarily frustrated. In fact I slammed the Wiimote on my desk multiple times. Finally I got that level passed, but man I sure was pissed during the process.

Irritating people

At the left side of my mind, I keep trying to remind myself that as a Christian, love is the most important, and to love those we don't find lovable is the one thing that Christian should do. But my right mind keeps feeling irritated by people who are impolite and inconsiderate, like that couple who walked up to me and my friend, and start chatting with my friend even when he was still in a conversation with me. The fact that they totally ignoring me really ticked me off. Sure they were closer to my friend that with me. Still there's certain social gesture that you need to make before you interrupt and took over other's conversation.

Sometimes I think heaven is a place where there's no people.

Digital TV ... (but why ...)

I was very impressed by what I saw from my roommate's digital TV Converter Box. That box converts on the air digital TV signal to analog TV signal. Before he got the digital box, the picture he got was fuzzy most of the time. Now it's all clear. That inspired me to apply for a Digital TV Converter Box coupon, and using the RF receiver on my TV Box in the meantime.

Well, after no watching off-the-air TV for so long, I have to say.... I didn't miss much. I watched commercials after commercials after commercials. Most of the channels are Mexican channels that I don't understand. I kept thinking of pausing until I realized that I couldn't pause live TV. Bottom line: I ain't crazy about it.

Still it's nice to have an option. So I will still leave the RF connector there, and I'll still get the TV converter box. After all, it's just $20 with the coupon.

Sharpstown, oh Sharpstown

Last night I need to buy something from Payless Shoes. I looked at the Google Map and found that it's sort of around the Sharpstown area, so I went to Sharpstown mall, not know that the store was actually at the opposite side of the street inside of inside the mall. I went ahead and check around in the mall, and found the mall pretty rundown to say the least. It was not the same mall I went to like 9 years ago. And based on what I saw I will probably never go back to that mall again in my life.

dream

I woke up this morning at 7:45 am, mostly because my biological clock triggered me to wake up. But I felt like sleeping a little bit more, so fell back to sleep again until 9:15 am. During that second session of sleeping, I had a dream.

The dream was like a series of fragment, but mostly it's like this: I took a bus to go to a place to visit some dance performance rehersal will a dance troop that I was with. After then I was kind of left alone so I went to bus station to try to take a bus again. While I was waiting for the bus, I realized that there's a lot of very pretty and sexy models on the street, promoting and selling all sort of stuff. There were even a model all dressed up in gown leaving the bus that I was not waiting for. It was a hot shinny day, and somehow I talked to myself that I felt sorry to these girls.

So then someone knew me in the line and started talking to me, and we were talking about practicing for band in church. Strangely, in the middle of the conversation I realized that I was already in the bus.

I then I pretty much woke up naturally at the end of the dream.

There's one thing I realized while I was in the dream, though: I was still no happy with some people who I knew from the troop before. They knew me, and I was doing my part being friendly with them. But they only talk to me when they needed something from me, like computer repair support, or roughly want to know what I was doing so that they could this information with others to exchange for other information. To me they were the typical "Hong Kong Chick" and hope that I never met them before. (If you asked me a few years ago I would hope that they witness their love one died in a tragic death and then being killed in the same death, but I guess I am slightly less angry these days.)

Ice Cream tastes good

It was the company's developer weekly meeting which I first tried out this Nestle Drumstick ice-cream icon, and was fell in love with it. So I grabbed a box from supermarket last week, and had one just a while ago. It was ... awesome. Sure it's not cheap (US$8 for box of 8), but heck, tasteful stuffs always have a price.

Slow office computer

I am getting less and less patient with my work machine. It's feels to me like it's getting slower everyday.

Drug

If the definition of addicting on something means losing track of time, can't focus on anything else, and keep wanting of of that same something, then I must be addicted to Daz Studio.

Once I got home after doing grocery, I went straight to my computer and try to continue working on some scene that started the day before. The next thing I know, I woke up form bed this morning, and then realized that I forget to put some frozen food in the refrigerator, and forgot to unpack stuffs that I brought from supermarket.

So I had to clean up the kitchen right away before my roommate kick my butt. By the time I finished cleaning all the mess, it's 8:25 p.m.. I knew I might be late for work.

And I think I flied through a Red Light or something like that. So if I got a ticket, I know what it will be.

I arrived work slightly late, but still able to attend the stand up meeting.

And honestly I am still feeling now disoriented right now. If Daz Studio is a drug, it must be Marijuana .

Chinatown 的舞蹈文化

無論任何一個地方，舞蹈藝術文化皆受經濟環境和商業機遇和生態所影響，那裡對某種藝術有商機，藝術便在滿足市場要求和進求藝術突破的兩極中間找尋生存空間。

Chinatown 的舞蹈文化主要為華人父母育兒的需要而生，Chinatown的舞蹈學校的學生主要是兒童，其次是婦女，但因為Chinatown的特殊氣候，舞蹈學校通常以中國舞為主，芭蕾舞為副.

Daz Studio 2.0 fun

Daz Studio sure is fun to play with. Here's what I made out of it earlier today.
