因為認識她, 所以聽到Eason這首歌:

落花流水
流水像清得没带半颗沙 前身被搁在上游风化
但那天经过那条提坝 斜阳又返照闪一下
遇上一朵落花 相遇就此拥着最爱归家
生活别过份地童话化 故事假使短过这五月落霞
没有需要惊诧 流水很清楚惜花这个责任
真的身份不过送运 这趟旅行若算开心
亦曷无负一生水点蒸发变做白云
花瓣飘落下游生根 淡淡交会过各不留下印

流水在山谷下再次分岔 情感渐化做淡然优雅
自觉心境已有如明镜 为何为天降的稀客
泛过一点浪花 天下并非只是有这朵花
不用为教事下文牵挂 要是彼此都有些既定路程
学会洒脱好吗 流水很清楚惜花这个责任
真的身份不过送运 这趟旅行若算开心
亦是无负这一生 水点蒸发变做白云
花瓣飘落下游生根 命运敲定了要这么发生
讲分开可否不再 用憾事的口吻
习惯无常才会庆幸 讲真天涯途上谁是客
散席时怎么分 流水很清楚惜花这个责任
真的身份不过送运 这趟旅行若算开心
亦是无负这一生 水点蒸发变做白云
花瓣飘落下游生根 淡淡交会过各不留下印
但是经历过最温柔共震

落花流水, 為何只可以送運?
一點也不覺有太多共震.
可能只有過多的自作多情,

或者又是我再次聽唔明...

Keep them close, but not too close.

Note to self: Proceed with caution

Since my ISP connection in Ottawa failed, I was unable to access my Gregarius RSS aggregator. Luckily, I have Google reader setup to play around when it first came out. Now it comes in handy. Mostly of my RSS feeds are imported there so I can catch up with news.

After I used it for a while, what I found is this reader actually response quite quickly. This seem to contribute by the help of AJAX, it fetches entries in the background to keep enough posts in the pipe while only show a few posts at a time. It is faster than Gregarius (and most other aggregators), which loads hundreds of posts at a time before user can read. It's a very good (and simple) GUI which optimize for a web application environment. I also like the short-cut key a lot.

Of course, this is a beta software so there are things to improve; Only a simple reader is presented, many advanced features such as list by blog/category is missing.

[update] actually, category is done via tag, and read by blog can be done from the subscription list

I guess I will use it for now...

So far, I have only used it for few hours. But I think I like it alright, typical and nothing to write home about.... it gets the job done if you want a blog with integrated functions like album. It's good to see it supports RSS. However, I think it's lack flexible I got from Nucleus (just like other host blogging platform?)

One thing I notice is the blog didn't load as quick as I wish. Another complain is it strips some tags out of a post. i.e. <!-- -->

Listened to Justin's 好人 the other day, conclusion was:

好人/kind man = 你不是 my cup of tea
你會等到你的幸福 = stay away from me

==========================

男人不壞, 女人_真_的不愛??

It's been almost a month since my Sympatico connection in Ottawa failed on me. This renders no access to my server at home (edmondhui.homeip.net), along with my blog, web album, RSS reader, and all other functions I have on it....

It sucks.

Since I am currently on a 6 months tour of duty in Guangzhou, China (until Sept), it doesn't seem like I can fix this situation anytime soon. Therefore, this space is created as a temporary blog space until my server back on the net. In addition, I never really use any hosted blogging platform, it might be a good idea to try one out.... even through I still like NucleusCMS better.

Just thinking what is the different between these 2 words.

Persisent:
1. Refusing to give up or let go; persevering obstinately.
2. Insistently repetitive or continuous: a persistent ringing of the telephone.
3. Existing or remaining in the same state for an indefinitely long time; enduring: persistent rumors; a persistent infection.

Stuborn:
1. Unreasonably, often perversely unyielding; bullheaded.
2. Firmly resolved or determined; resolute. See Synonyms at obstinate.
3. Characterized by perseverance; persistent.
4. Difficult to treat or deal with; resistant to treatment or effort: stubborn soil; stubborn stains.

Glad to know I am not stuborn yet.

I have been having a lot of fun here and I rarely missed anything in Ottawa besides Internet access (which is sucks here) and snowboarding (which is 6 months away, anyway).

But this morning while taking a break to have breakfast in a OK store. I suddenly think of Barb's daughter Krist, she's such a cute little angel. Each time I visit them, she just run toward me as I open my arms and I like to pick her up and throw her up the ceiling. She likes the excitement.

I think I start to miss Ottawa, but I know I will missed Guangzhou as well and now I wish time can stop.

It's sometimes feel so painful heavy to wait in silent. The uncertainty and nervousness makes it almost unbearable. It bothers. But the truth is it might be just a silly trick your mind is doing it to you. it just some unwarranted worries.
