Nowhere ... near ....離...很遠

Words like `fabulous','wonderful`,`great`,`absolutely gorgeous', they don`t exist in Cantonese. It`s good, or it`s O.K. It`s very blunt, Cantonese. I appreciate that there are no fake words, but it`s hard to switch channels, sometimes,after.....

Random Thoughts while at work

When I was a kid, there was no doubt in my parents’ mind that I would one day be a lady that they would love me to be. I’ve always asked questions of why the sky is blue, how the rain is formed or how people came to be. But like most kids my age, when asked what I wanna be when I grow up, I always say... a lawyer, a policewoman or a teacher (depending on my mood)......



However, when I reached high school, I confirmed what my parents knew all along.........

If I weren't in this field, I probably had been (or would be in my next life) …

A Psychologist

There’s just something about people’s brains that fascinates me. The way it works, how it processes information and its ability to store memory. I’ve always wondered why some people turn out to be geniuses while others seem to be idiots, and what makes crazy people take pleasure in having sadistic tendencies while I can’t even harm a bug and would faint at the sight of blood. The brain works in mysterious ways and I would have loved unlocking its mysteries.

A Writer

I’ve always had this vision of me in my bikini or beachwear (my work attire) lounging under a big umbrella, writing a magazine article or a book somewhere in the beach (my office) while sipping my favorite drinks . In real life, writing might not be as glamorous as I try to make it sound, but I’ve always like it. It’s how I usually express my thoughts and pour my sentiments. Well, here somehow helping me fulfill my dream of being one… if only I could get paid doing it!

A Travel correspondent

This is one of the best jobs in the world. It’s like getting paid for taking a vacation! You explore the world, see the sights and then talk about it….

A Kindergarten teacher

I adore kids (until they’re 13 years old! ;-) ). In this highly competitive world where a lot of people lie to each other and at times commit evil against one another, a child’s innocence and inherently good will is refreshing. It bolsters my sometimes-wavering faith in humanity. An environment surrounded by children reminds me of how it used to be when the world was simpler and life was worry-free. And kids have this natural thirst for knowledge that makes teaching so enjoyable! To me, being able to help kids into better people and help them create a better future is one of the most rewarding and honorable jobs of all.
