( 繁 | 简 )

Date: 02 August 2009     Venue: Hong Kong Stadium    Time: 5:30pm - 7:30pm

Attendance: 23025     Weather: sweating      Scores: 2-0 (Chan, Siu Ki 52' Li, Haiqiang (PEN.) 69' )

Enjoy watching a game of football, live at stadium? My experience in football stadium is always memorable, no matter its london or hong kong, its all about game atmosphere, even i m not a supporter for either side of teams, having a pint in my hand, i witnessed the match with enthusiasm. The local crowd was totally siding with South China, and their support was answered by two hard earned goals in the 2nd half respectively. The crowd went wild. Honestly i was a little shocked by Spurs defeat, but knowing its friendly nature, i m content with the results either way.

One odd thing i discovered from watching the match in our stadium, they actually charge less for better seats? 250 hkd for lousy ventilated stall seats where u cant see what is going on, yet with only 100 u can go to the upper lvl for a more comprehensive view, and a pleasant summer breeze. I guess its a cultural difference once again? The closer to the action the better lol

Got pwned by Edward Furnishing Gallery!

I cannot believe i got swindled by that soab furniture retailer! I m furious!

Three months ago i came across this furniture outlet in happy valley, hk, a supplier who import furnitures from england, with certificate of origin and all that, seemed promising.

But i m wrong. Despite the man's scroundrel appearance, i decided to buy three items from him, all sofas, and this is a close to 100 grand altogether deal. He said delivery will due in a couple to three months. Eventually the sofas did arrive, but only two out of three. One individual item would take longer bcos he made a mistake on the measurements. I paid my deposit in april, unwillingly, for i had to pay more than half cos that is 'the rule'. I thought what the heck just get this over and done with, so i paid him for that item a 23500 hkd deposit. Three months later, well close to four months now, knowing the delivery time is due, i called the man again. He sluggishly replied me, and that is the last time we talked on the phone. I asked him why didnt he provide the info on the item, for there are amendments, if the good is unacceptable, they might as well not ship it at all. He then tried to convince me there is no problem, and if there is a problem, i can get full refund, after all it is his mistake the first place. I thought fair enough, but surely i dont want the latter to happen, i just want my sofa to arrive in good shape. However, two more weeks have passed, i waited and waited until one day i drove to the store to look for him. Guess what happens?

He is long gone. Thats right, edward furnishing gallery just ceased to exist. He is probably wiping his ass with my 23500 dollars, smelling his feaces, laughing. What an utter a- hole! soab slapping motherfker ... btw no need for translate Jry7...

So what did i do? first thing i called the consumer council; but sorry, hotline period is over. Then i dialled 999 for the police, u know what i get the first go? 'police, nine nine nine, police, nine nine nine' this robotic retarded voice repeated itself in cantonese and english before hanging up on me, wtf!? I called again, boy that lady sounded soooo 'enthusiatic', like she is 'really' willing to help, i ponder what kind of a society is this when all it does is asking YOU for help, but SCREW YOU when it is the way round? So i went to the police station. Not that i know they can help, but what else can i do, sitting on my ass? That lady in uniform took her time to listen to my case, and in between her chit chat with her colleagues, she broke it to me calmly, that they cant assign an officer to follow my case, for this is consumer council business, not theirs, they can only open up a file for the records, but no one is gonna bother with that.

Freaking awesome. A fraud just walked away with 23500 hkd, and i just sit around, pretend nothing happened, cos its a frigging weekend?? This is just great, wat a classic example for our society, one that dont give a rats ass unless u cry your lungs out at the media. So what then, m i gonna get my refund? Guess not. i can wait till monday though, wait for the stupid hotline to become available, so i can repeat my pathetic little case to a stranger who probably dont give a crap either. Goddamnit this blows.

Folks, i know some of your parents or teachers taught you NOT to judge others by appearance, but seriously, the hell with it, ALWAYS be suspicious to those crooks out there!

Little Chace!!!

This little wonder is one of the most dearest things to our family. The first time we met, hes still fast asleep, i couldnt see his little eyes like the picture here. I didnt get to hear his baby voice either, hope i can see and hear from him next time real soon. This little cuddly thing is so super adorable, i wish i can see him more often, but due to his mother's conditions, this baby gathering will have to postpone.

This picture still put me in awe, seeing my sister an entertainer then, now a mother.

The first little something i brought for our little angel, a little angle outfit ^^ hope he likes it
