Honestly, I’m neither fans of Spain or Netherlands. I like Uruguay more than the two and the game of Uruguay vs Germany is more exciting to me. Just love the passion of Forlan shown, the best demonstration of football!

長頸鹿與伸展運動
好耐好耐以前, 非洲的草原上有一對長頸鹿。牠們吃著地上矮樹的葉, 質感有點粗糙。有時候, 牠們幸運地撿到樹上飄下來的葉子, 牠們都覺得這是世上味道最好的東西。
「除了等運到, 怎樣才可以輕易地吃到草上的嫩葉呢?」牠們努力地想著。
終於, 牠們得出了一個答案, 伸展運動! 牠們持續地做伸展運動, 也教育孩子這樣做。
「噢, 我的寶貝們, 我們一定要這樣做啊! 這是為了孩子你們, 也為了你們孩子, 你們孩子的孩子, 你們孩子的孩子的孩子, 你們孩子的孩子的孩子…所以我們不可以放棄。」
牠們希望有朝一日後代能輕鬆地吃到樹上的嫩葉, 不用再望天打卦, 等樹葉掉下落。
自此, 不論是早上, 下午, 晚上, 起床時, 刷牙時, 吃飯時, 大便時, 吵架時, 玩遊戲時, 聊天時, 晚上睡不著時……兩隻長頸鹿每天也勤力地做伸展運動。
長頸鹿們保持著這個「習俗」數千年, 歷經幾百個世代。在族群的努力與堅持下, 一厘米, 一厘米地增長著, 長頸鹿的頸終於長得可以讓牠們吃到榭上的葉了!
這個故事有甚麼啟發?
……
……
……
那就是…欽…就是…呢…
伸展運動有益健康!
不是要在生命中不斷努力和堅持嗎?
這對孩子也太沉重了吧, 而且他們將會在學校, 社會, 及跟其他人比較…之中學會這些。我會樂於講我作的故事給將來的小孩聽, 但我不想帶給他們任何壓力。
再者, 他們睡不著的最大受害者…是你。
Giraffe and Skreching exercise
Once upon a time, there was a giraffe couple in Africa grassland. They ate the bush on the ground. Sometimes, they picked the leaves fell from the tree luckily and they believed it tastes the best in the world.
“How can I eat that easily without waiting for the luck comes?” They wondered.
The two giraffes got an idea! SKETCHING EXERCISE! They can keep doing sketching exercise and tell their kids to do that.
“Come on childern, we have to do that, for your kids, the kids of your kids, the kids of your kids’ kids, the kids of your kids’ kids’ kids, the kids of your kids’ kids’ kids’ kids…We should never give up!”
They hope that their next generations can take the fresh leaves on the tree easily one day, without looking up the sky, waiting for the miracles from the god.
They do the sketching exercise in the morning, in the afternoon, in the evening, when they wake up, when they are teeth brushing, when they are eating, when they pooh, when they are fighting, when they are playing games, when they are chatting, when they couldn’t fall into sleep…
The giraffe species kept this “custom” for thousands years or hundreds of generation.
With the efforts and persistent of the ancestors, by 1 cm and 1 cm, giraffe’s neck is long enough to browse the leaves on the tree finally!
Any inspirations from the story?
……
……
……
YES, it is…eh…um…ah…yes…it…is….
Sketching exercise is good for your health!
Why not something about working hard or persistency?
Oh…it’s too much to our kids, and they are gonna learn that from school, society, comparison with the others, blablabla…I would love to tell the fairy tales I wrote to my future kids, and I don’t want to bring any heavy feelings in my stories.
Um…It’s good for you also, you will be the biggest victim if they couldn’t fall into sleep.

今天買了<<我不是完美小孩>>, 是被書名吸引了。
<<我不是完美小孩>>道出了不少人勇敢接受自己缺陷的過程。在上面的廣告裡, 可以看到一幅色彩斑斕的背景跟「郝完美」黑影對比的縮圖。在香港, 你也許會更早察覺自己的不完美, 要學會融入這個花花世界, 要花的力氣也不少。
出生時爸媽說我醜, 取名嘉俊, 希望我長大後會俊俏一點。
剛滿月時感染了肺炎, 死不了, 一向心肺功能不好, 跑不久。
小時候媽媽整天放我在學行車走, 得了扁平足, 走路久了腳會痛。
在醫院打防疫注射時頑皮亂動打歪了, 手臂上長了一塊肉芽不太好看。
六歲時撞掉了一雙門牙, 到恆齒長出來之前說話常常漏著風。
長得黑黑瘦瘦給人頑皮的印象, 加上成績不是太好, 老師的管教也特別嚴厲。
青春期長了很多痘痘, 留下的印不好看。
在香港, 這個向右走的城市, 「完美」是很現實, 是可以計量的。
小時候要聽話, 要靜靜地坐著聽講, 讀書成績好才是好孩子。
長大了, 名校畢業, 具應用於工作上的一技之長, 能掙錢的才是Good Boy。
外界對自己的要求從來也達不到, 從小便知道自己不會是完美的, 而且很多缺陷。
媽媽說我容易驕傲, 向來不怎麼給予讚許, 在學校也沒有得過獎, 留堂是等閒事, 更試過被罰洗廁所。
在人生的路途上, 我落力地跑, 在球場上, 我也是全力去跑, 可是, 都好像跑歪了。
也許我這生最幸運的是及早放棄「完美」, 外界的要求我總是達不到, 但是我也很高興。雖然跑歪了, 我走著我想走的路。
既然我注定是「不完美」的, 那便不用被「完美」牽著鼻子走, 我喜歡畫著藍色的雪人, 從不愛用橡皮擦或塗改液, 在球場亂鑽半場被換出, 學的都不是能鑽錢的, 落力在畢業論文寫著沒有人會理的題目, 一個人背上背包到處走…
至少, 我在做我想做的事, 那就夠了。
「完美」太累人了, 如果「完美」讓我活得不快樂, 為什麼要「完美」?
將來我有小孩的話, 我會叫她不要理完美不完美, 你開心就好了。我姓簡, 如果孩子叫簡單的話也真的不錯。簡簡單單能隨心去做便是最大的幸福。當然我知道這樣做孩子長大了也會抱怨…
Umm…西藏回來後頭髮還未長長的我, 加上眼睛小小的好像有點「郝完美」男朋友的影子, 她爸爸對他的印象也好像都符合在我身上, 是好是壞?

Laying on the bed, sending CV in the morning, reading in the afternoon, watchig WorldCup at night, the life beat is like the song I am listening sang by Lenka and Feist. Weight does’t raise but everything is getting better.
One more acupuncture treatment and I would be able to work out in GYM during the afternoon…so…it would be working out in the afternoon and reading at night after the WorldCup…Really enjoy this kinda lifestyle…
Currently listening: Lenka, Feist, Jason Mraz, and Alicia Keys
Currently Reading: Books about Lama and Buddhlism brought in Tibet

Got back from the trip for half of month, and still taking a long break. My body is still recovering, lost about 10 pounds and some hurts in the trip. Sending CV every morning and doing exercise in the afternoon, um…maybe it’s the time to think about my future. I’ve already got some brief idea these years, but the way to achieve it is still…_____…blank. Just wait, wait for the job, wait for the mood to write…I’m planning to tidy up all my notes and pictures in every journey, maybe this blank period is the time to write something, maybe a book?…ha…Then that means I have to be unemployed for months. I’m impatient sometimes for lagging behind people around me. In the trip, I planned to kick out this kinda feeling by cycling and cycling, and I feel better for a while when I got back. But now, bad feelings and sense of insecure returns…It’s all out of my control, this kinda uncertainty and the feeling of nothing I can do is real bad…but all I have to do is just wait, just to follow that for now…so…stay calm…:)
Today…I carried two armchairs from IKEA back home…
1. For my dad to sit comfortably watching World cup (Naughty daddy couldn’t sit properly on normal chair and fell down last night. He’s fine, just hahaha and return to the sit and concentrate on thinking what to bet…and he lose.)
2. For myself to sit properly and think in the afternoon…

-Tell me the candy you like(M&M’s, Chupa Chups, Almond Roca, Godiva, whatever…just don’t make it difficult to get), and you will get picture of a kid, who ate the candy you pick on my way cycling from Chengdu to Lhasa, Tibet as postcard.
-I will try to ask the address of the kid, so you two can be pen friend. Translation service will be provided to those don’t know to write Chinese, but still, you have to write it on your own.
Just handed in my honorary project yesterday and brought the flight ticket and travel insurance today. Hoooooray!
-I will go there on 11 May, and back to H.K on about 10 June.
-I will try to get the photo printed in Lhasa if I find a shop there. Hopefully it won’t be difficult because I will take my favorite Minolta SRT 101 film camera there. But still there might be constrain of time, location and my energy…so maybe the postmark will be from H.K finally.
Email the candy you like and your address to me if you want to join the Project O, my email address is: annoyingthing@gmail.com
Thank you!

中國呢，可幸的是你有飽飯吃，其餘的不要說太多了。
Congrats that you get rice, but you are not suppose to talk too much in this country.
能討活的話，其他都不理了。
Born to be an economic animal and nothing political…
你必須變得強悍才可以保命。

世界上有一群仍然為生存而掙扎的人，相比起他們，我們是幸福的。但是我不喜歡這一種比較得來的幸福，我覺得太殘酷了。沒錯，這樣我會更加珍惜自己擁有的，但是同樣我會罪疚。麻木的人會說我們值得擁有因為我們有更高的智慧，謀生技能，文化修養，道德層次，一切順理成章理所當然？其實純粹是我們幸運地降落在一個比較富裕的地方，一個地球資源比較集中的範圍，我們佔用了別人的配額，吃了人家分兒，享受了部份人這輩子也沒有奢望過的生活。
小時候我太飽吃不下時，媽媽會說非洲的兒童沒有飯吃，但是強行吃下本來吃不下的飯菜對事情有幫助嗎？我想要分得開，我不想要有罪疚感的幸福，我的幸福是要源自純粹的欣賞，珍惜，感恩。沒錯，比較差的人讓我學會更珍惜，然而比較別人的話我們可以是十分幸運，也可以是十分不幸，這個世界有幸運得像擁有全世界的，也有不幸得終日生存權利受威脅的，單向地比較差的或好的也不好，這種比較其實也沒有什麼準確的，世上也沒有一樣東西叫幸福值吧，我不要偽客觀比較得來的幸福。這種比較可以做的只是驅動我幫助有需要的人，這是佔了別人分兒的義務。
至於我的幸福，不是比較得來的，說簡單不簡單，說難也不太難，只是跟我珍惜和珍惜我的人在一起，明確一點的目標是成家立室再帶孩子到黃石公園跑山看黑熊去。這是純粹由心而發，可能有點拙劣，但不罪疚。
There are many people still struggling for their survival in the world. We are doing good compare to them. We got food, water, entertainment and everything. But I really don’t like this kind of content feeling come by comparison. Knowing about the situation of them would make me treasure about what I own more, but I also have a guilt feeling.
People with apathetic mind might say we deserve it because we are more intelligent, we got skills, and we have higher culture sense and moral standard. But no, we are only lucky enough to land on an abundant country, a place that resources of the earth concentrated. We occupied the quota of others, we ate the proportion of others, and we enjoy the lifestyle that someone in the other sides of the world did not even imagined to have. When I was small, mum told me kids in the Africa are starving when I was too full and refuse to eat some more. Is that finishing the whole big bowl of rice helps the situation in third world countries?
I would like to split it up in my mind. I don’t want my happiness linked with guilty feeling. My content feeling comes from appreciation, treasure and grace. Of course, comparing those worse than me would make me treasure more. While we could be fabulously content or absolutely nothing when we are comparing to others, some people are rich enough as if they own the whole world and some people’s survival right are threatened in everyday life. It is stupid to simply comparing to those better or worse off. There is no standard meter to evaluate content or happiness objectively. The comparison made me know about my responsibility to help those in need.
And about my happiness, it’s all subjective and does nothing with comparison. It could be easy, it could be difficult, it’s about to be with the ones I treasure and treasure me. I have a goal, to have my own family and bring my kids to yellow stone state park, running in the mountain, and say hello to the black bears. It’s impulsive and a bit silly, but it doesn’t bring any guilt feeling.
劇場版 Special Episode
1850s
你會到君主制下的香港，但山高皇帝遠，過一過水上人家的生活平平淡淡也不錯。
You are going to live in Hong Kong under monarchy, but the emperor is far enough to let you have a peaceful life.
1950s
香港雖然是殖民地，洋鬼子有很大的權，可是你努力還是有機會的，置業安家，養妻活兒絕對不成問題，運氣好的話發財也說不定呢。
Hong Kong is colony of Britain, so the British hold the power. But return to your effort is guaranteed. Having a home, feeding family won’t be a problem. And you can be rich if you are lucky enough.
馬照跑，舞照跳！
Horseracing and dancing never die!
1980s
香港將不再是殖民地，但你還是不見得有什麼權。政府跟商家關係十分良好，上一代地產佬響你出世之前就碌爆你張咭，你置業安家等如同佢做一世奴隸。你讀得多書肯搏肯捱，做一世騾仔生活大概安穩，但係發圍上位就一定冇你份。
Hong Kong is no longer a colony, but your voice is neglected still. The government and the businessmen are good friend. Those property developers had already overdrawn your account before your birth. Even If you buy a tiny apartment with 600 square feet, you have to be their slave for half of your life. Even if you studied hard and worked hard for your whole life, you can have a stable life, but to stand out this the place is nothing related to you.
正仆街！
Damn that Donald Duck!
Sorry for my poor drawing. It’s drawn by me this time. :p
