做 人 简 简 单 单 就 好 了

Me love listening to an advertisement aired over radio - MY FM
If me not wrong, it is the advertisement for some canned food brand for CNY

A kid voice asking

" Dim gai sik fan zi chin yu sai shao? "
.... why have to wash hands before eating

" Dim gai yu dang yan chai xin ho yi sik fan? "
.... why have to wait for everyone present then only can eat?

" Dim gai sik fan ooi ngai yan? "
... why have to address people then only eat?

" Dim gai yu sik fan shin ho yi sik tim ben? "
... why have to finish rice then only can eat desert?

but it's this last sentence me like most
" haih ... zou yan gan gan dan dan mai hou lo "
.... sigh ... lead a simple life then good lo

ps. sigh.. the last line is the simplest yet the most difficult to translate
" haih ... zou yan gan gan dan dan mai hou lo " really ga

我的未来不是梦...translated

as promised

my future is not a dream

are you like me, bowing under the sunlight
sweat flowing but still working hard
are you like me, even given cold shoulder
will not give up the life we wanted to have


are you like me, busy chasing everyday
chasing some unpredictable warmth
are you like me, feeling guilty
every time, circling around the junction


that's because I do not care what others say
I had not forgotten
the promise to myself, the believe to love


I know my future is not a dream
I live every moment
my future is not a dream
my heart move with my hope


* after that it's just basically repeating the previous paragraphs *

somehow ... me didn't think me got the msg through
the meaning just got 'lost in translation' me guess :p
or it has got to be my bad translation :p

我的未来不是梦

there's something about this song
something that prompted me to learn to sing :p

你是不是像我在太阳下低头
流着汗水默默辛苦的工作
你是不是像我就算受了冷漠
也不放弃自己想要的生活

你是不是像我整天忙着追求
追求一种意想不到的温柔
你是不是像我曾经茫然失措
一次一次徘徊在十字街头

因为我不在乎别人怎么说
我从来没有忘记我
对自己的承诺对爱的执著

我知道我的未来不是梦
我认真的过每一分钟
我的未来不是梦
我的心跟着希望在动
我的未来不是梦
我认真的过每一分钟
我的未来不是梦
我的心跟着希望在动
跟着希望在动

perhaps shall translate later

I know what me did last week

there are little little things in life that can bring alot alot happiness.
there are small small experiences in life that can make big big differences
.. some experiences me may not have if not for someone who make the effort and took the trouble to bring me along..
or actually allow me to tag along :p


my experiences may be just 'chicken feet' to some but they definately meant alot to me, really :)

I've always wanted to be at the rooftop (open air) of a building and couldn't believe me did just that last week.
How often, we ordinary people are allowed to go to rooftop without authorised access (minus those in movies)
The building need not be very high but the view is spectacular & it makes me wonder 'how come it's so nice up here? ' and 'how come I am so fortunate to be here? '
Enjoying the view & being with someone you want to be with is blissful.

Make me realised 'I'm one lucky gal' :p
the cool night wind after rain makes it even more beautiful


but that's not all ... me being me
or for those of you who know how naughty me can be
me was not complacent with just being there ... me walked on 'rooftop' ... climbed on the blue roof (slope gradient minimal) and walked around
and that was after much coaxing for him to let me do so ... me know u're worried about my safety :p but where else can me try, when else can me try if not during then :p
never mind that me was wearing skirt :p it was dark anyway :p


A.H.U
what's behind that door?
me got to see what's behind the AHU door, a bigger version though ... like the size of a small shipping container
but still it was the strong 'wind' that amazed me ... real strong wind that you feel like almost can be blown away
me stood there for a few minutes, reluctant to leave nevermind the hair became like 'soh po' liao
we walked around many places at the rooftop, he was telling me alot of things
while me only managed to look with my mouth open ... like how we react when we are astonished
sorry, me cannot remember the terms & functions liao ... if not can share :p


OT
Most people got money or day-off (claimed for OT), me got 'da hoi ngan gai' (literally translate : open eye view) at OT
'OT' btw, is where doctors 'cut' open people, do 'something' and 'sew' them back
for people like me who's not smart enough to study medicine, being in an operating theatre is indeed 'bonus'
nothing beat seeing the 'big round light' , the two arms ... with a row of sockets & another row of backups, and the cool sensor water tap.
the more we walked, the more me discovered how me have not seen many things


me treasure all these great experiences, alot
and grateful to the person who made these possible
come to think of it ... something new & fun to begin new year with :)


ps. sorry if later part of the post sounded 'sleepy' cause me really sleepy :p
