My Winding Roads

What did this guy commited? Getting such ‘punishment’…

Today is CNY2006, Happy Chinese New Year to all. I wish everybody good health, everything goes smooth and the most important…WIN MORE!!!

I went to friend’s place to eat ‘tong yuen’ and gamble a bit. Even though it was not as happening as in my home country, at least that was something different. No traffic jams and crowded everywhere. There will be a problem for eating because many people will eat outside and many restaurants or hawker centres will be closed. But there will be several shops that will open during CNY. These shops will have high profits!

Longhorn–now Windows Vista–may be arriving more slowly than expected and it might not have everything that was once planned, but Windows chief Jim Allchin maintains “It’s a big deal.”

Rather than having to remember the single folder where something is stored, users will be able to put documents in any number of virtual folders.

Since I came to UK, I am trying to adapt to a new culture and living style. Every request ending with the magic word , ‘please‘. Every gratefulness will be presented by the word ‘cheers‘. This ‘cheers’ is normally used by me during party nights.

Back in my home country, chinese CD’s, VCD’s and DVD’s are normal to me. Even English version of these are easily available. But then in UK, I hardly see any of these except Ebay. Really miss my all time favourite humour movies by Stephen Chow. I used to treat his movie as my ’sleeping pill’ therefore most of his movies, I have watched at least more than 3 times.
