being alive：Una parte de usted ha crecido en mí. Y usted ve tan, es usted y yo junto por siempre; y nunca aparte, quizá en distancia, pero nunca en corazón.
I was asked whether i am a designer when taking a photo of color and material demo of chairs. I am not (yet), but it is a pleasure to be mistaken for! i was actually not that yet to arrive for the speech, however, the speech was already finished. the speaker was surrrounded by many: to b-talk to him, to take a picture with him...i was thinking to have a name card then go, but he just cannot find his name cards... what a pity, i think.. then I just marked down the name of his studio.. it doesnt make much sense if i asked a card but know nothing about his presentation anyway... because amimi forgot to bring her mobile, we ended up with waiting for each other by... chance. while i was waiting for her, i read the vipassana book that i bought but not finish yet. there came a girl, sitting next to me. i talked to her, thinking she might recognize me but i forgot that today i had contact lens while i was with glasses yesterday. she paused a bit but soon enough to greet me back and said, "you are the one in the speech yesterday?" i smiled (yesterday, the speaker shared some materials and she was sitting on the bench on my right hand... just upon jotting down the information, she practively handed her hands out and smiled at me and i smiled back while giving her the books on my hand) i am really lucky that she took photos of the speech "mix and match in life"- mix match, can be reached by an objective balance: personal needs vs wants; west vs east.. elements that are totally different but can be arranged in a harmanious way to catch people's attention! as people know what beauty is, though they might not be able to articulate how they value beauty.
El amor es una lengua hablada por cada uno, pero entendida solamente por un corazón. Love is the language everyone speaks, but it is only understood by heart. 愛是每個人都會說的語言，但只有心才明白什麼是愛 －Shirley Rindani－
I am not a
big fan of online social networks. There was a time I used msn
messenger heavily, but not anymore... as time is limited, more and more
acqaintances on the list but hardly share common values...and indeed
there are so much more fun things to do "OFFLINE". However I read a book
review and the interview of the author of The
zen of social media marketing which gives me a new perspective and
here is what I find informative.
Somehow it is already cliche: how your view the world will be shown in your daily interaction with others, in your talks, in your behaviors; the more I observe, the more I find it is true...
They are previous colleagues.Both are nice with me: one is always caring while there are more business wise/organizational sparklings with the other, whom I've found more and more distant. Mainly because once one becomes egoistic, the way the are with people can be easily sarcastic: not really harmful but less friendly.
"I, I, I", "My, My, My*" could be really a killer. I learned to take another way while there is a pit dug by others' "unconsciousness". People are inclined to ask others to do their way so to please themselves? However, if they are really caring, they will understand you instead of asking you to please them, you just be yourself!
始作蛹者不是我，我當然也不會作繭自縛或傻地跳進別人挖的陷阱裡。雲淡風輕的無言的天地大美。已經不知所云的我啊⋯

1. I asked D what her criteria are in choosing a significant one. D says, first honesty. second, he gotta be knowledgable so that he can teach me alot. third, if he is rich, that is even better... while 2/3 of the guys say appreance/beauty is not important but the personality: being independent or capable etc... After the survey, I might not be able to give guys a good suggestion, but I told D that rather than finding a knowledgable man, (she looks wonder), be a knowledgable woman so that you attract others!! (now I see the lights in her eyes... she smiles too)
2. 挽面：a very traditional taiwanese facial, to remove the tiny hair from your face so maybe we can name it "facial hair removal". older generation has their facial when there are big events to dress up. nowadays, it is said the facial hair removal can help attract better luck! but an immediate personal feeling is that the facial circulation has been improved, right away! the old lady, almost 70, is really skillful that when i closed my eyes to enjoy the service, i think i will bring friends to exprience this! Upon opening my eyes, i told her "真功夫(real good technique and skill／for guru, masters!)呢". She replied "會煮菜a是師傅，會煮飯a是真功夫〞(those who make dishes are cooks, those who know how to cook rice are masters!) Nice say, I like it! (following clip is a reference)
已讀過不少類似的文：想成功，你必須不斷地嘗試、失敗、嘗試、失敗然後才有那麼一次成功。 我想到D的發言，他對自己的未來很有信心，不是因為其他（環境、人脈或任何），而是因為他對自己有信心﹗"Most Taiwaneses are afraid of failure, so that they lead an ordinary 9-to-5 life." 年紀小小就能具有自己的見解與面對世界的大氣，不管如何，都是很值得恭禧的事。他有了對的心態，看事情就不會從常人的角度，人會快樂一點，生活會更豐富一些﹗
