無聊

最近發現"無聊"這個term真係幾好用, 因為:

- 如果有人問你, "這套電影好看嗎?, 你可以回答 "無聊的電影" [形容詞 (adjective)]

- 又或者有人問你, "你在干嘛?", 你可以回答 "我在無聊" [動詞 (verb)]

- 熱戀中的女仔亦可以好sweet地同男朋友講: "你好無聊嗯!!", 男友即刻lum 死.


雖然很多女仔都同我講 "你好無聊嗯!!"

不過, 語氣就大大不同, 因為一般女仔都是忍無可忍才跟我在電話裡講這句話, 之後立即cut線.

灰晒.

有下次的話, 起碼講句 "拜拜" 好嗎?

Recommended Reading

Over lunch one day last week, one of my new colleagues mentioned that she had to recommend a book to someone her junior who's just starting their career.   At that moment, 2 things came to mind:

- Phew!  If someone had asked me to recommend I wouldn't have a clue what to say, given that I haven't read a non-fiction since I dunno when , and

- I wonder if Next Magazine, Sudden Weekly, E-zone, Men's Uno (or whatever that's at the hairdressers) would be suffice =p

So, after reviewing all the publications I've read in the past 15 years ( can probably count with 2 hands) and careful consideration , I have come up with my recommended list:

1) Next Magazine - hey you gotta know what's going on around the town right?

2) The Da Vinci Code - Controversial no doubt, but it's definitely a page-turner.  

3) Introduction to Economics by Alan C. Stockman

You may ask, "What?  Introduction to Economics is on your recommended list!?"

Well, if you're one of those people like me who can't sleep after several cups of coffee during the day, then this book is perfect for you.  I usually start at the Preface, and usually, before I get to "About the Author", I would pass out.  

Or if you need something stronger, go to the section "Supply and Demand".  That will put u to sleep within 2 mins.  "I Guarantee It!"  (for some reason the Men's Warehouse ad in Canada keeps popping into my head as I am writing this)

So, if you ever have any sleeping problems, pull out one of your old Econ books from your bookshelf.  You will not regret it.  

Hope you all had a good weekend.

P.S. This is the year Liverpool will win the EPL.  Even Jamie Carragher is scoring goals now.  Before Saturday, I think had scored 2 in the past 10 years.  Better go buy the lottery on Tuesday.

A new beginning...well, sort of...

Question:  Why do you think I am starting a new blog?

1. Sitting at home on a weekday for the 2nd time in 3 weeks because of the typhoon (trust me I am not complaining)
   
2. Because I am bored
   
3. Getting tired of listening to dumb commentators on TVB's Olympic broadcasts
4. Because your first blog was on Friendster and no one visits 

Your answer:

a) 1 b) 2

c) 3 d) 4

e) 1 & 2 only f)1& 3 only

g) 2 & 3 only h) 2& 4 only

i) All of the above

Well, I would have to say it's "i", but reason 3 is the biggest reason without a doubt.

Did TVB ever consider other people for these jobs?  I mean, what's the point of putting the ex-Miss HK's there when they have absolutely no knowledge about sports?  And the worst thing is, their voices are very annoying! 

The funniest 無聊 news in the past few months -  An ex-Miss HK champion who claimed she made 10+ million in a bear marke in the past yeart.  The funny thing is, she has no clue what the Hang Seng index the index is at.  Did she really think people are dumb and naive?

You're my idol, Ms. Yip.  Even Warren Buffett should take some lessons from you.  And, great nose job, by the way.
