Becoming Jane

<How can you, of all people, dispose of yourself without affection?>

Thats the line totally got me...

I bought the TW R3 DVD tonight when I was supposed to go looking for a gift for Lara.

Errrrr..

Simply because I cant wait for the Amazon UK delivery!! 

Damn me...

Will someone pull me out from Jame's charm??!!!

The story can resume. I will return.

So I m back to LJ.

I fixed the layout and changed the user photo. 

Its been more than one year since I updated anything here because I have started another blog somewhere.. :D 

Anyways, I will just write here and there.. 

But I think more personal stuff here... 

I just wanna say that I am so addicted to James McAvoy now that I need to check out his movie quote everyday. 

Haha...

Its a weird day today

  • Mar. 11th, 2007 at 3:21 AM

I went to Room 18 for the first time of my life cos my friend gave me a free tix for a DJ event. 

Frankly I was pretty excited for following reasons: 1. I have never been to Room 18 before but I have heard its kinda cool 2. I didnt go clubbing for a LONG time and 3. its always good to enjoy some music.

So there I was, standing in the dance floor with 2 friends. (  there were supposed to be more people but they canceled in the last minute) 

AND... 

Then I realized there were so many celebrities in this club, well I have worked with some of them and some of them I will be working with pretty soon. Its kinda funny in a way to see those people, I am not sure how to describe it. 

Girls here dressed very HOT, or I should say, there was only a small piece of polyester on the breasts. Yeah I know guys like that... Boys and girls in this club were checking out each other by staring. I suddenly felt.. I didnt belong in this kinda place.

When I was about to leave.. I saw this guy coming in. 

OH GOSH. 

OH GOSH.

He was the guy I had a crush on when I was in my ex ex company. He came for an audition but we didnt sign the contract in the very end. He looked just the same as 2 years ago. 

OH GOSH.

OH GOSH.

AND HE WAS HOLDING A GIRL'S HAND...

OK, thats enough for me.

I decided I wanna take a walk home instead of a taxi.

Maybe this would be my first and last time to go to this club.

PS. Mitch, thanks for the music you played tonight, it was great.



Looking for peace

  • Dec. 25th, 2006 at 4:02 PM
Today I was woken up by the construction site noise. 

DARN!!

Therefore I decided to grab my notebook and "The shadow of the wind" out of the apartment and looked for a cafe. 

I went to ZAKKA first, its closed, I guess its Monday off so I walked to another one, its closed too.

I carried my notebook and walked.... 

I passed by at least 5 construction sites so all the cafes around them were XXX from my lists.

After nearly 30 mins....

I saw this IR Choco Cafe....

Its small but the sight of chocolate in the windows got my attention right away. 

I walked in and ordered a hot chocolate and cake, opened my notebook and realized theres no free wireless internet here.

Errr... I guess good things wont come easily so I went purchasing some wireless internet service. 

So.. FINALLY.. now I am listening to Sade and reading some The Shadow of the wind and talking to a few friends on MSN.

WHy is it so hard to find some peace in Taipei City??!!

Turning Slightly Better

  • Nov. 10th, 2006 at 11:55 AM
Last night I watched a very funny movie "Eurotrip" on HBO after I watched The Apprentice and SATC.

I really enjoyed all of them.

In Taiwan, most time I would just avoid news channels because its hell frustrating to watch the news.

We have more than 100 channels but sometimes its difficult to find a program I am interested in.

Guess I was lucky last night!

Nothing to say

  • Nov. 8th, 2006 at 3:52 PM
Is it because I am too stressful so my period just stop coming?

Most people think I am tough in a way.

When I wanna find someone to talk to, usually I cant find anyone, nobody picks up the phone, busy at work or phone is off. Everyone seems got something else more important to do instead of being there for me for a while.

Will someone find out if I just disappear in this world for 3 days?

If you're not the one

  • Oct. 21st, 2006 at 12:34 PM
If you're not the one then why does my soul feel glad today?
If you're not the one then why does my hand fit yours this way?
If you are not mine then why does your heart return my call?
If you are not mine would I have the strength to stand at all?

I never know what the future brings
But I know you are here with me now
We'll make it through
And I hope you are the one I share my life with
I don't want to run away but I can't take it, I don't understand
If I'm not made for you then why does my heart tell me that I am?
Is there any way that I can stay in your arms?

If I don't need you then why am I crying on my bed?
If I don't need you then why does your name resound in my head?
If you're not for me then why does this distance maim my life?
If you're not for me then why do I dream of you as my wife?

I don't know why you're so far away
But I know that this much is true
We'll make it through
And I hope you are the one I share my life with
And I wish that you could be the one I die with
And I pray in you're the one I build my home with
I hope I love you all my life

I don't want to run away but I can't take it, I don't understand
If I'm not made for you then why does my heart tell me that I am
Is there any way that I can stay in your arms?

'Cause I miss you, body and soul so strong that it takes my breath away
And I breathe you into my heart and pray for the strength to stand today
'Cause I love you, whether it's wrong or right
And though I can't be with you tonight
And know my heart is by your side

I don't want to run away but I can't take it, I don't understand
If I'm not made for you then why does my heart tell me that I am
Is there any way that I can stay in your arms?

So long

  • Oct. 3rd, 2006 at 2:19 AM
I dont wanna look back, I wanna move forward.

This isnt going anywhere and I know it. 

So................long...................

How much more can I take?

  • Sep. 11th, 2006 at 11:49 AM

You messaged me this morning saying YOU CANT DO THIS MORE, YOU WANNA KILL YOURSELF. 

Well, you are not  the first one to send me this, I believe you wont be the last one either.

I feel like I am drained....

I dont know how to deal with this anymore. 

Most people around me carry negative emotions recently. 

Hell no, not just negative... 

You come to me for comfort, frankly I am glad I am a good listener to you because sometimes I want you to be my listeners too.

However, I am not a problem slover.

Sometimes you just have to climb on a hill to see things clearly. 

I can only walk you there but you got to open YOUR eyes to see. 

Its a burden to see my good friends suffering from all these, and it hurts me more when I know no matter what I do, the wound inside your heart wont heal.

I am not blaming you for being like this. 

I just wish all of us could be happy. 

If you need my positive power, I could pass them to you anytime, anywhere. 

But please... leave some power to me so I can survive through this. 





Just in this weird mood......

  • Aug. 18th, 2006 at 11:53 PM

Feel like talking to someone...

So I tried to call a few people...

I hate talking to a machine...

However its difficult to write down what I wanna talk about...

Is that why today so many people are suffering from the metal problems?





Be the flame - not the moth.

  • Aug. 10th, 2006 at 3:05 PM
I watched Casanova (DVD) last night by myself. 

3 reasons to watch this movie, first, its about Venezia, second, Heath Ledger, third, Jeremy Irons. 

Actually this movie is a comedy about love...

Its that kinda movie you dont expect too much fom it but in the end you got what you want. 

My piggie sort of rested herself besides me when I sat on the sofa during the movie time.

Its a cool typhoon night and yet my heart remains warm. 






I just rent 2 dvds to spend the night...

SAW 2

Just Like Heaven

Everytime I rent more than 1 dvd, I would choose a serious one, maybe a horror movie or drama one, then I would pick up a comedy or a YA movie. 

I will start with the easy movie first to relax myself then go for the serious one later on. 

But with the red wine... I dont know if I can make to the second movie tonight... 

Oopss...









Should I sleep?

  • Jul. 23rd, 2006 at 2:06 AM

Mike, his roommate and Stacey came by my house tonight and we played some Ma jiang. 

I was a totally loser tonight.. they took off around midnight and my boss called so I took care of some business till now.

I should be watching Wang's live game at 4am Taiwan time........

And now its 2am something...........

Should I sleep??

Gosh........



The Lake House

  • Jul. 22nd, 2006 at 1:36 AM
I thought Alex was going to die....

If that so, I would burst out of tears...

I gave it 8 on IMDB. 

Well... mostly because of Keanu and Sandra, they both are my favorite actor/actress.

Its been a long time since the last time I went to movie theater for a chick's flick.

Though I have to say its good to do something like this with a bunch of girl friends...

Especially if your boy friend or guy friends are not interested in this kinda movies and you can only run into your girl friends... Haha!! 

Cant believe I am starting to count down the days that you two are leaving.... 

:(

A call to France

  • Jul. 21st, 2006 at 1:40 AM
Its weird since we didnt talk much and we have known each other for 4 years!! 

Tonight she asked me to call you because she was too afraid to make the call herself. 

No matter what will happen between you and her. 

I just hope things can work out in a better way. 

Its hurtful to see a good friend being in this kinda situation..........

Sometimes its only misunderstanding between two people and one of them has to be brave and clear things out. 

I am not only talking about relationships, friendships do too. 

But... the other person has to be totally honest and let everything out too... 

Thats the true base of a relationship/friendship. 

La Meglio gioventù

  • Jul. 17th, 2006 at 3:14 AM

http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0346336/

I cried when I watched it by myself in my room. 

SPOILERS...(which made me cry)

1. When Matteo and Nicola found out their father was dead. Matteo sped on the way back to Rome, Giuila yelled at him for its too dangerous to drive this fast. He finally stopped the car and Nicola went to hug him and they both cried. 

2. When Matteo took of his shoes and jumped out of the balcony. 

3. When their mother hold Matteo's books and they fall down. Nicola picked them up and she threw the books away and cried loudly. 

4. When Giorgia finally spoke to Nicola normally. 

5. When their mother showed Vitale Matteo's old photos which she couldnt bear to see them by herself. Vitale said they could see them together. 

6. & 7........................



Wang's next game...

  • Jul. 17th, 2006 at 3:06 AM
Monday, July 17 Purchase Tickets Yankee Stadium | 7:05 PM ET
SEA Jarrod Washburn, LHP (4-9, 4.58)
Mariners (44-47)
  @   NYY Chien-Ming Wang, RHP (9-4, 4.00)
Yankees (52-36)

Scouting Report:
Washburn put together one of his best starts in recent memory on July 2 when he limited the Rockies to two runs on six hits in seven innings in a no-decision. Washburn did walk four, though two of those came in the eighth inning. Overall, his command was better than it has been lately.

Wang rebounded from one of his toughest outings of the season with a 8 1/3-inning, one-earned run gem his last time out. Along with Mike Mussina, Wang has been the Yankees' most consistent starter. He posted a 3.19 ERA in June and has a 3.95 ERA in July after giving up five earned runs in 5 1/3 innings July 3 against the Indians.



Oh right... Mariners got Ichiro Suzuki.... Lets watch Wang strikes him out!!! XD

World Cup Fever

  • Jul. 17th, 2006 at 2:58 AM

The World Cup finished last weekend and I have to say it’s not a good ending for me. I am not a BIG Zidane fan but I think he did pretty well in this torment and the red card was completely WHAT THE HELL?? for his last match. There’s one thing made me excited though, a TV Station held a big party in a stadium for the last game, I watched this game with 6 thousand people, most of them got Italy or France flags painting on their faces, arms or clothes. The atmosphere was super!! The amazing part was, due to the time difference, the match started at 2am Taiwan time and finished around 5.30am after the PK. When we walked out of the stadium, we all felt so surreal, the sky was getting bright and it seems like a busy evening 5.30pm instead of 5.30am!!

 

The saddest thing was Czech team didn’t make to the top 8 or top 4. I almost cried when I watched the Italy VS Czech game, Mike asked me to go to a sports bar and watched the game with a bunch of people. I never tried that before so I said yes and I even asked some other friends to join us. When we arrived the bar, it’s damn full (Taiwanese are crazy about World Cup and I don’t know why……. Soccer is not even a major sport here!) The hostess told me it’s full and we couldn’t get in. However, I saw some foreigners got in just after a couple minutes. The hostess only stopped Taiwanese to get in. I can’t believe this is happening in my own country, racism to our own people?! Anyways, my friends and I left the bar with anger because we missed one third of the game. I also told myself I won’t go back to that bar again.

 

I had a house party on the night of England VS Portugal. Esme is 1/4 Portuguese and I invited her to my house. She said she could cook for all of my guests, I was happy to hear that because I believe she is a better cook than me. Ha!! So she did and the food was fab!! I myself was the bartender that night; I made my special Vodka Jello cocktails and some other mix drinks. The night went well and when England lost the game we all cheered, well, we kind of forced everyone to support Portugal that night. :p

Wang, Yanks fall on walk-off

  • Jun. 19th, 2006 at 12:00 PM

WASHINGTON -- The Yankees needed Chien-Ming Wang to provide them with a lengthy outing on Sunday. As it turned out, they left him in one batter too long.

Ryan Zimmerman stunned the Yankees with a two-run walk-off home run, spoiling what would have been Wang's first career complete-game victory, as the Nationals took the rubber match by a 3-2 final.

"I thought he was very courageous," Joe Torre said. "It's too bad he came out on the short end. He saved our life, and I'm sorry we couldn't help him win this ballgame. ... This kid pitched his heart out, and I feel bad for him; worse than I do for us."

"It's a tough way to lose," Johnny Damon said. "It was so quick and so unexpected."

Wang (7-3) had been efficient and effective through the first eight innings, holding Washington to just one run on four singles. In that span, 16 of his 24 outs came on ground balls, as he pounded the zone with one sinker after another.

Unfortunately for Wang and the Yankees, the final pitch he threw -- also a sinker -- didn't sink, and Zimmerman pounced on it.

"You saw when the pitch was let go that it was high," Torre said. "It was probably the only mistake he made all day."

"I feel bad," said Wang, who threw his glove into the dugout as he walked off the field, showing a rare burst of emotion. "I lost the game."

Zimmerman's heroics made Alex Rodriguez's big day nothing more than a footnote. A-Rod, who has been working on correcting a mechanical flaw in his swing for the past two days with hitting coach Don Mattingly, had snapped a 1-1 tie in the eighth with an RBI double, putting New York in position to win.

"It's a work in progress; I'm working hard with Donnie every morning and taking baby steps," A-Rod said. "It's not going to come overnight, but it's getting better. I'm definitely feeling more comfortable."

Even in the loss, Wang helped his team by giving the bullpen a day off. Mariano Rivera had thrown 2 1/3 innings to go with Scott Proctor's 2 2/3 frames over the past two games, while Kyle Farnsworth has been out since Friday with back spasms.

Both Proctor and Rivera told Torre before the game that they were available to pitch, but the manager opted to stick with Wang in the ninth, as the starter had thrown just 96 pitches through eight innings.

"Where his pitch count was and with the result we were getting, we decided to stay there," Torre said. "You're lacking the one guy you always go in situations like that. We were in position to win the ballgame without Mo; we just didn't get away with it."

Rivera wanted to take the ball in the ninth, but he understood why Torre decided to stick with Wang.

 "I wanted to be there, but it's not up to me," Rivera said. "I'll never second-guess Mr. Torre. If it was up to me, I'd pitch every day. But I look at today and he looks at the season. That's why he's the manager and I'm a pitcher."

Washington's Mike O'Connor matched Wang with seven innings of one-run ball, holding the high-powered Yankees offense to just four hits in the no-decision.

"It's those young guys we've never seen before that tend to give us trouble," said Damon, who went 0-for-5. "It seems like we'd rather face Cy Young Award winners."

The Nationals struck first with a run in the fifth, as Brendan Harris singled in Zimmerman. New York tied the game in the next inning, as Derek Jeter doubled, moved to third on a wild pitch and scored on Jorge Posada's sacrifice fly.

Gary Majewski (3-2) opened the eighth for the Nats by walking Melky Cabrera, but the right-hander followed with strikeouts of Jeter and Jason Giambi. That brought Rodriguez to the plate, and he drilled the first pitch to deep left-center, scoring Cabrera all the way from first.

A-Rod, who was 7-for-45 in June after Friday's game, went 2-for-2 with a pair of walks on Sunday, his second straight multi-hit game. Rodriguez also had two hits on Saturday, including a two-run home run to center.

"The last two days, he's been so different than he's been this month," Torre said. "You don't hold your breath and hope that something good happens for him now. He's back."

Wang retired the side in order in five of the first seven innings, working quickly and efficiently. Wang went out for the eighth and walked Harris to start the inning.

Marlon Byrd bunted Harris to second, but Wang retired Brian Schneider for the second out. After walking Alfonso Soriano, Wang got Jose Vidro to fly out to left, where Cabrera ran down the ball, making a nice catch to preserve the lead.

Unfortunately for Wang and the Yankees, he was unable to close the deal, losing for the first time since May 22, a span of five starts.

"It was great when we didn't see Rivera out there in the ninth," Vidro said. "We were like, 'Oh, man, we have a very good chance.'"

Wang took a 2-1 lead into the ninth, as the Yankees looked to the right-hander to give the weary bullpen a full day of rest. He retired the first batter in the inning, but after pinch-hitter Marlon Anderson singled through the hole between first and second, Zimmerman drilled the first pitch he saw over the wall in left field, ending the game with one swing.

"He was good all day, keeping the ball down and using his sinker," Zimmerman said. "He left one up [and] I caught it good enough to get it out. It felt good. I knew I got it good enough once I hit it."

"As well as he pitched," Jeter said, "he deserves to get something for it."

Princess Hours

  • Jun. 8th, 2006 at 6:57 PM

I finished watching the whole 24 episodes in 6 days. 

And this guy totally made me go nuts!! 

I've always like a guy with a great smile, and he does have one. 

More that that, the loneliness and pain in his eyes is just too much for me, how can any girl resist that?! 

His voice is also pleasing to hear, he could be strong when he needs to protect someone he loves. 

The saddest thing is  he can give up the reputation, fame and wealth for the girl and let her go to someone she truly loves, even it breaks his heart like hell. 

Anyways, its a role in this story......... and I am imagining I would have someone who loves me so much.................... 

I feel kinda silly to feel sad for this.......... but still.......... I am sad.

 

More info about princess hours. (Its in Korean)
