獨食難肥《紅樓夢》


重讀《紅樓夢》,只因重讀亦舒的散文。

《紅樓夢》是一本非常有趣的小說,無論從那一個角度切入皆發人深省,其妙無窮。

《紅樓夢》又是這麼一門專門的學問,自己獨食難肥,最好有一班朋友,彼此皆愛讀此奇妙作品,又各有心得。這個圈子要定期聚會,大家妙語連珠,高談濶論。

問題是我大學時進了商學院,搞局至今身邊就是沒有幾個朋友沉醉《紅樓夢》,所以缺乏了這麼一個圈子。

於是唯有讀張愛玲和亦舒談《紅樓夢》的散文,聊慰寂莫。

Please, not in my castle in the clouds.


Resentful feelings have come along my mind and my live for long. On track or astray, I walked my way all by myself.

I am truly all by myself. I look at myself in the mirror. Even my face my body, I managed and put efforts to shape it from a local girl out of a a humble background and gradually get established. I am not talking about plastic surgery or money or jewellery but manners and the thickness of my stories inside.

I am strong but still I can be beat easily. I am just a human so pardon my instance blues. In her song Evita whispered,"Anyone could hurt me and they do." 

But. But I know no one can hurt me if I don't let it be done. I am used to protect and fight for every threat and all the tigers who come at night to turn your dreams in shame.

Not in a childish voice, but I meant it. Please, not in my castle in the clouds.

I am whining. Just some unconscious whining .

The 2019 California #Calexit Independence


The 2019 #Calexit Independence Referendum

In the Spring of 2019, Californians will go to the polls in a historic vote to decide by referendum if California should exit the Union, a #Calexit vote.

You will have this historic opportunity because the Yes California Independence Campaign will qualify a citizen’s initiative for the 2018 ballot that if passed would call for a special election for Californians to vote for or against the independence of California from the United States.

This is a very important question. It is the responsibility of this campaign to explain what a yes vote will mean for you, your family, your community, our state, our country, and our world. We have designed this website to answer many of these questions and look to you to ask more.

"As the sixth largest economy in the world, California is more economically powerful than France and has a population larger than Poland. Point by point, California compares and competes with countries, not just the 49 other states.”

In our view, the United States of America represents so many things that conflict with Californian values, and our continued statehood means California will continue subsidizing the other states to our own detriment, and to the detriment of our children.

Although charity is part of our culture, when you consider that California’s infrastructure is falling apart, our public schools are ranked among the worst in the entire country, we have the highest number of homeless persons living without shelter and other basic necessities, poverty rates remain high, income inequality continues to expand, and we must often borrow money from the future to provide services for today, now is not the time for charity.

However, this independence referendum is about more than California subsidizing other states of this country. It is about the right to self-determination and the concept of voluntary association, both of which are supported by constitutional and international law.

It is about California taking its place in the world, standing as an equal among nations. We believe in two fundamental truths: (1) California exerts a positive influence on the rest of the world, and (2) California could do more good as an independent country than it is able to do as a just a U.S. state.

In 2016, the United Kingdom voted to leave the international community with their “Brexit” vote. Our “Calexit” referendum is about California joining the international community. You have a big decision to make.

Yes California is here to help.

Emotional Baggage



Almost 60% of the occupants here are coming from the West. Beautifully standing among my neighbour being this Ms. LL the blonde. We do not ask about the personal particulars but I am of an impression that she comes all the way from Australia and is working as a tennis coach. 

I seldom lie and I am always telling the truth when someone cares about it. So when she asked about my weight losing I told her the truth. Then it came the difference of a Westerner and an Asian. Ms. LL tried to suppress her surprise and gave me a hug and asked if I have had support. If there was/ will be anyone go with me at the forthcoming medical occasions. 

I was educated the moment I was given a hug. Usually I am too self-centric on my own emotions and subsequently my emotions become a baggage of the person whom I was talking with whom he/she was actually the centre of the dialogue.

Now I want a scoop of chocolate ice-cream.
