WTF FABIO CAPELLO!!

I haven't been up to the football news for a long time coz I don't have time to watch the games and I don't have sport channels at home anymore. But sometimes I do still read the newspaper and keep myself updated.

Owen was snubbed by the England national team manger Fabio Capello and the newspaper writes things like "Owen's future looks bleak". As a fan of Owen, it is really upset to see this England hero being treated like this. He's never let England down. Never will!! This is a standard management technique - write off a player's chances if only to impose your authority on the team. Mclaren did it with Beckham too! Owen was and still is a fine player!! I think Capello is totally non sense!!

PARTY AT NABIL'S HOME

Chris and Charly are going back to France on next Tue so we had party at Nabil's home tonight. They both showed us the photos of their trip in Asia and we had sushi and pizza and wine for dinner.

They took a lot of photos and they looked so enjoyable!! It's very good to travel for 3 more months!! I don't even have chance to visit the Asian countries that they have been to!! Cool Guys!!

MERINO

Someone bought me a Merino after the adventure in NZ. It reminds me that I got a sheep cuddle toy from my aunt when I was around 8 or 9 years old. Once my mom washed it for me and sun dried it outside the balcony but it fell down to the ground accidentally (I was living in 13/F). Flying Sheep!! :D Of course finally my mom got it back for me and washed it again :D

I liked this sheep a lot but I can't remember how it was out of my life. Maybe it "flew away" again? LOL Anyway thanks and I like this Merino a lot!! I don't know where to put it tho LOL My bed is full of cuddle toys already!!

HAPPY & SURPRISING FRIDAY

MERCI DIEU!!

Merci Dieu!! I passed my test!!! How lucky I am!! :) I didn't expect it!! Thanks Raphael!! We whole class can promote to Level 11!!

Chris and Charly are back!! After 3 more months adventure in Asia and finally they are back to Hong Kong!! We had dinner together with Kayin, Janet and Nabil. It was great to see them again!!

Chris wanted to eat Japanese food and I knew it!! I think he can't live without sushi!! :D They talked about their adventure and it sounded very interesting. They told me that they didn't need much money and I was surprised that they spent so few in a day!! It's relly that cheap in Asia??

They prepared a lot of food like oysters, sashimi, sea urchin, shellfish, scallop, shrimp, salad... All the food was so fresh and delicious!! I liked the sea urchin and sahimi a lot!!




I first tired to mix Party Sangria and it was very easy to make and it tasted so good!! :) I loved it!!! We played playing cards, Wii and watching TV until 9pm and then went home! I was soooo full!!

WATCHMEN + MORIHACHI


I'm into American Hero movies so I went to watch "Watchmen" today tho many of my friends are not keen on watching it. I thought it was something like X-Man or Spider man but I was so disappointed after watching this movie.

This movie was a bit confusing and the plot was disjointed. Neither Me nor PY had a clue on what was this movie about. It was too long and I kept wondering when it was going to end. It wasn't worth to watch on the cinema!!

After movie, we went to a Japanese BBQ Restaurant "Morihachi" for dinner. We ordered a lot of meat and seafood, the beef was very delicious!! It was very soft and I felt like they were melting in my mouth!! Yummy!!

We went for a drink at LKF after dinner and we had a nice casual talk together. It's very good to have gathering with good friends. I enjoyed this night a lot!! :)

HALF ITALIAN??

Tomato is back from Italy and we came out to have dinner together with Suika and their colleagues. I haven't seen them both for a long time!! Time flies!! Tomato has been in Italy for 3 months already!! It sounds like she enjoyed her life in Italy very much!!

She still looked quite the same and she will stay in Hong Kong until summer and then she will go back to Italy again. She's like a half Italian now :D But she still can't speak Italian yet!! :D She is going to learn tho! For sure learning in Italy can be faster!!

We had dinner and drinks until midnight and then I met AC in CWB coz Big D is going back to Thailand next week and I was supposed to have dinner with them but I was having dinner with Tomato so I couldn't go. I didn't really want to go to CWB at 1am but they were waiting for me.

When I met them, I didn't see Big D, AC told me that he was too tired and he went home already. I thought I was going to farewell with him!! Darn! Then what was the point for me to go there?!! Finally Ar Ton took us to a Thai Bar, we expected that it would be an interesting place but it wasn't!! They played something like 60s' songs and there were many old thai women with young thai lads. I felt so bored and I kept yawning... Shit wasting my time... I swear I will never go there again!!

MY COLLEAGUE

My colleague has asked me out for dinner many times but actually I'm not so keen on it coz I don't like to be so close with my colleagues. I think it's different between friends and workmates. I can have fun and laugh and do some silly things with my friends but I won't act like that when I'm at work. I'm not acting cool or something it's just I think it's better seperate work and private life.

I had dinner with her after work and she looked happy to have my company. I know she has been upset and stressed becoz of her manager and she wanted to quit the job. She needed someone to talk to and I understand her situation. But I can't do anything to help her.

It's easy to have conflicts at work and I don't think I can make a just decision if I'm too close with my colleagues. So I try to stay away with them and I don't want to mix my work life to my private life. I do have good friends that who were my colleagues but work is work, it's lucky if you can find real friends at work but it is not a necessary.

POSITIVE SUPPORT

I've been so busy recently and finally I had time to have dinner with my old friend. I haven't seen her for few months, it was good to come out for dinner and update each other's recently lives.

She complained that her life was as routine and boring as usual coz she doesn't have much things to do after work excepting watching TV at home. But I complained that my life was a bit boring too. She was amazed that I felt boring coz in her eyes, my life is very busy and full of fun. It's hard to express how I feel bored, I feel like I miss something in my life and I just want to have a change or something. I keep myself busy coz I'm easy to feel bored if I don't have anything to do.

I told her that what I wanted to do and I'm glad that she had a positive mind. She supported me and it made me feel great. But the only thing that she didn't appreciate is that I'm still running away from the problem and not facing it. I know I shouldn't be like that but I really don't know what I can do. I just need some more time...

LA UMAI

I heard that there is a new French Japanese fusion Restaurant in North Point so I wanna to have a try there. This restaurant is on the 25 floor of a commerical building and you can see a bit Victoria Sea view.

It was very dark inside the restaurant and I could barely read the menu. We ordered oysters first, they didn't have many choices, only Kumamoto and Fine de Clair. The oysters were ok, not as good as I expected. I guess maybe becoz it isn't the right season for eating oysters.

And then we had Canadian sea urchin, it was so fresh and delicious!! It was perfect match to eat with cucumbers!!

The sashimi salad was ok, the sauce was quite good but it didn't taste special and the portion was too small.


I like the baby Australian Wagyu, it was so tender and juicy!! I loved it!!


The beef spaghetti tasted quite good and we we so fully after eating few dishes. Overall their food was quite good but I don't think I will go there again coz I can have better dishes at other places with cheaper price.
