隨想，不想再想

這博落客曾經的這麼喜歡，這麼的珍惜，卻被那個人這麼地毀於一旦。雖然重建了，但。。。

多年了，一直不敢登入，我不想回憶起那晚被兇著按下「關閉戶口」的情景，那晚崩潰的感覺。

今天登入了，埋藏在心底裡的痛苦再次浮現。那一瞬間有著窒息的感覺，手不停地發抖，眼淚控制不了一直在流，心很痛。。。

Picture of My Day - 郊野後院

在過去的週末小女我到了別人家中開派對燒嘢食。朋友家位於不是很郊野，但都算是半個郊野的 greenbelt 地帶。兩層高獨立屋連帶分門完成土庫，特別之處是每一層都有一個大露台（共三層），可貫通上下。土庫可以直接通往後院，而後院又可以直達小河，閒時可以泛舟河上，欣賞蘆葦田，龜龜，蒼鷺等，也是賞心樂事喔！春末將近夏天之時，據屋主說，還能在後院找到龜蛋呢！不過呢，龜蛋通常都在未孵化前被浣熊吃掉。。。由於這裡遠離市區，並沒有受到光污染，晚上抬頭望上天更可以清晰看到不同的星座！我相信見到流星的機會也不難，幸運的話或許也有機會見到飛碟？！

說到好處連綿吧？！壞處還是有的。。。。間屋太大（超過五千尺），難以打掃！！對我這種懶人來說，就算要我每天打掃一層，也要花上三天的時間才能把全部地方打掃好喔！！還未包括整理前院和後院鏟草。。。這實在是太悽慘了！！如果要打掃得細緻，起碼要花上一整星期。年復年，日復日不停地做同一個動作：打掃。。。。我住山洞算了！還有的。。。這裡太郊區，所以野生動物如賊眉賊眼的浣熊等也特別猖狂！熊兄扯破屋主屋檐，一家大小扶老攜幼「鳩佔」了巨宅一角！牠們氣力之大，還踩凹了一些通風管道。。。非常誇張！嗯。。。。我還是比較喜歡住山洞。。。

圖：這個景色是從屋主地庫的露台拍的。面對著藍天白雲，小河，蘆葦田，最重要是沒有蚊，讓人十分舒懷！特別用了手機的這個照相功能。。。一次過能夠選擇十二種照片特效，雖然不常用，但都算有趣。

Picture of My Day - 辰

昨天都算去了 Downtown 很多地方。大統華湖濱夜市是我前往 Downtown 的住要目的。在網上 Google 了一會後，發現市中心除了有湖濱夜市外，還有 hot & spicy food festival！早早到達 '辣辣食品節' 會場後才發覺這個 event 還未開始，與網上所說的開幕時候有所出入！既然來了便四周逛逛，拍拍照、散散步和欣賞湖光風景。之後去了 St. Lawrence Market 拍照，這個地方一直是我想再次來遊玩的...等了這麼久今次終於都有機會來了。我在這個小市場的通道中穿梭，拍了百多張照片～ 嘻～ 無聊嘛！當時才四點多，湖濱夜市還未開始... 總要想個辦法來消磨時間的。遊完 St. Lawrence Market，下一站：Sugar Beach。這個人工沙灘建在一棟商業大廈旁邊，只能夠晒太陽，卻不能游水！Sugar Beach 得此名是因為它建在 Redpath 糖廠則。沙灘地方很細，雖然只有幾把粉紅色的太陽傘，但景色都算怡人。逗留了一會，我見還剩餘了時間，於是便到了附近的 Tommy Thompson Park 玩，可惜來遲了～ 公園大閘在我們到達時剛剛關上... 假如要進去的話便需要步行，但要走多久才能夠到達湖邊就不得而知了... 這個地方我都是第一次來。打不到這個公園的主意，我到了附近的 marina 拍照。拍、拍、拍！好！夠鐘～！ 直駛夜市去。大統華的湖濱夜市我都是頭一次來，感覺上與什麼 Taste of Asia 或 Night it up 差不多，但都算幾好睇。我對這個活動的印象也不錯，但明年會否再來就很難講了。走到累、肚子餓...我沒有在夜市中開餐，反而到了 Danforth 某餐廳用膳。吃什麼？嘻～ 你遲啲就會知道～ ^^ 累透～～ 回到家裏都已經是晚上九點後的事了～ 這天的活動宣告結束，照片整理後會上傳。

遲來的祝福。這個博文給你，祝你生日快樂！^^

Picture of My Day - Puffer 小惡霸

昨晚放工回家後見到這家伙，好像生病了？！平常這些小河豚一看到我就游開....尤其是這條小惡霸。可能是因為我常常整蠱牠把？！我最喜歡拿著要餵牠們吃的鮮蝦在缸外在晃來晃去，牠們看到食物自然會游過來，但又吃不到...  嘻～  在這情況下我通常都會被牠們 '重啤'；牠們發脾氣了便游開不理我，見狀我立即乖乖地把食物放進缸中。^^;

這兩條王八蛋很奇特的（可能是我對牠們的了解不夠？！），我發覺牠們的肚腩好像會變色的？！平時見牠們的肚腩好像是白色的，但當牠們肚餓或是越接近食飯時間時，牠們的肚腩便會變成灰黑色？！總知有什麼不太妥時肚腩變會變色？！而且整個身體的顏色都會立時變得灰沉...  此外，牠們又不喜歡拍照，一見到我部相機所閃的紅光便會即時彈開，而且牠們又游得快...  每次拍照後照片出來的效果都是鬼影重重的...

覺得小惡霸生病是因為回家後見到牠沉在缸底發呆，全身變得灰黑色...好冇心機的樣子。看牠的身體也好像出現了很多不該有的 '點點'？！我見牠見到我沒有游開，便立刻拿出相機對準牠拍照，牠竟然不反抗，也對那些紅光沒有反應，任由我拍照...  11：06pm，剛剛走去看牠，還是灰黑色的...  河豚不再像，卻變成了一隻烏嘴狗...  兩條王八還未入睡！牠們未睡，我倒要去瞓覺了，希望牠明早健康狀況會好轉。

七月七號：把小惡霸放在杯中觀看... 烏卒卒、黑掹掹、又有點點... 
....不寫了...

Picture of My Day - WANTED!! 通緝中...

這條魚 (Trinidad Pleco) 在中缸無故失蹤了...   =::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::(   繼 Yoyo 後牠是我最喜歡的一條魚... 牠非常乖巧可愛... 我給牠取了個名字，叫 'hachi-chan'。最後一次見牠好像是一個多星期前...還是更早？！這種魚生命力強，能夠容易地適應不同的環境與及水質。這算是一條魚苗，長大後體長可達十二吋。此外，這種魚性格溫馴，是種 community fish，適合與大部分的魚同養（對吧？！）......翻起了石春、植物、隔屎板，也 check 過濾水器都不見牠的蹤影...  我們有想過牠可能爬出魚缸然後掉在地上仙遊去了，但地上又找不到牠....  牠到底往那裡去了....？！

圖：很難得才拍到 Hachi-chan 把背鰭和尾鰭撐起的樣子。平常這些魚都會把背、尾鰭垂下。

Picture of My Day - 食飯啦～ 不過不是我....

我家 hamster 吃飯中，不知為什麼牠們食飯一定要合上眼睛才夠 enjoy....

不多寫了，心情不悅。

Picture of My Day: Green Spotted Puffer （壞蛋與惡霸）

今天不想上傳有關食物、跑館子的帖...食到飽睇到悶～  見昨天在副博開始了這個河豚話題，今天在這個主博繼續說～  嘻～  最近添了兩條小河豚，很難得才拍到牠們的照，特意把照片帖在這裏。買這種魚是因為牠們可愛，而且喜歡牠們頭頂的顏色：Lime Green 螢光綠，樣子跟顏色都像外星大怪魔！嘻～ 以前所看過的河豚頭頂上有個 '8' 字（叫八字河豚？！）；我所買的這種沒有，只有超多黑色的大細點點（中文不知叫什麼）。兩條壞蛋小惡霸，一條是我揀、另一條是我請 Big Al's 店員幫我揀的。猜猜看那條是我揀的！ =D 

右邊那條小壞蛋常常對左邊那條小惡霸虎視眈眈... 肚餓嘛，把對方當成食物！！就算餵食了鮮蝦，隔了一會肚子又餓，又對小惡霸再度虎視眈眈！知道的原因是因為某天早上發現小惡霸背脊上多了一個牙印，與小壞蛋的口形剛好吻合！此外，每次去看牠們，都只見到小壞蛋不懷好意地尾隨小惡霸...  那天把魚買回來後放牠們進缸，只見小惡霸一入到水後便在水中不停地左看右看，好似隻豬仔咁轉來轉去，睇吓自己喺邊，睇吓點解自己會嚟咗呢道...  我估牠們一定是種很聰明的動物（平時啲魚一入缸後就即刻搵地方哩，一定唔會睇吓自己喺邊！）。聽說這種河豚可以生長到大約六吋長，牙齒很尖而且很惡，不小心把手指放進去分分鐘會被咬傷！！看牠們的樣子好像懵懵哋咁，如果不是做過些 research 我真的不知道呢！

圖：被看中了，小惡霸拼命地找地方躲... 這種情形我天天見。注：這個缸也同時引入了 Yoyo，下次有機會再談！=)

Picture of My Day: Silver Arowana 銀龍

猶豫著究竟今天發不發帖好？！想著想著，好吧！一於發個短帖吧。

昨天早上到總公司開會，只知道有個帖 schedule 在九點多出，卻忘記那是什麼 topic，差不多中午會來，才知道發了個 '糊塗樓'。也好～  講魚～!  家中三個魚缸，小缸現正在養剩餘的那幾條 platy；中缸仍然在養水，等待合適的主人。大缸...唉，自從幾天前 over feed 了之後水便開始濁，魚也歸西了幾條，包括養了五個多月的一條 Tiger Barb、剛買了不久的一條 Green Moss Barb、一條養了一年多的 Serpae Tetra，還有不見了幾條 cory.

圖：這些是銀龍的魚苗（這可以說是魚苗吧？！），我不知道牠們有多大，可能只有幾個星期大。見牠們有些還有個'蛋黃'吊住！這種吊在魚身的'蛋黃'我都是第一次見！=D 多神奇噢！過去的週二去了這間唐人魚舖，忘了帶相機沒有拍到。週四再去，嚇然發現本來有很多'蛋黃'吊住的銀龍少了很多（這麼快就長大了？！）！最慘就是當時老闆正在換水，把魚苗嚇得往缸最埋邊躲！他看我在那個缸前走來走去，於是便讓個位給我看。我乘機拍了張照！ =)  這魚舖好像是做批發的，也設有零售。這個星期他們返了很多不同種類的 Discus，有啲個樣超激！好似俾人咬咗啖咁！！店內知道的老闆有兩個，有戴眼鏡那個比較嚴肅；無戴眼鏡那個比較健談好人。下星期四返貨；銀龍 $15/條。Gold Ocean Aquarium 地址：Hwy 7 / Leslie, on Leslie 喺正 Time Square 對面。

 這裏還有另外一張銀龍的照片。魚苗在換水時走到缸的最後（平時在前面的），鏡頭有點難捕捉。

 這條龍吐珠（還很小，約15cm )看樣子好像與別的有點不同，而且還要用另一塊玻璃分隔，看來非同小可！

 Discus, 有著斑斕的色彩。

 這種 Discus 在外面的魚舖好像比較少見？！遠看樣子有點奇特～

 有些魚尾部有點黑色的'花紋'，但大部份都沒有....看! 樣子怪雞！

這條有黑色花紋的魚遠看好像被人在尾部咬了一口似的。注：要遠看！當我走進這魚舖時，在老遠已看到這種魚，看著看著，驚見為什麼有幾條魚好像被人咬了一口後還這麼生猛？！再走近看，原來'咬去'的地方只是花紋！哈！有趣的掩眼法！=D

Picture of My Day: enRoute

My friend is coming back and I will be going to pick him up from the airport right after work today!!  =D  It's now 4:44pm, his flight is scheduled to be arriving at around 5:50pm!!  Yay!!  Then we are gonna have dinner (don't know where yet).  As you can see his flight is somewhere over Wisconsin now (I think that's Wisconsin, not 100% sure)  No mood to work now eventhough I still have a file to work on...  Well, here is a very good example to show you what the hell I do at work most of the time!  LOL!!!

Picture of My Day: Pig or Wild Boar?!

Question: what do you think this looks like to you?  A pig?  A wild boar? Or a hog?!  Well, you won't believe this...  Mom did this from an Indian papad!  She was having dinner with her friend, cracking this piece of papad bit by bit without looking at it at first.  Then out of a sudden she looked down at her food and saw this 'wild boar'!!  Funny huh!

Mom has decided to keep this precious papad ever since then.  Here is a closer shot at the 'wild boar', see??!  This is really a piece of papad!!  See the cumin seeds?!

She loves this so much that she has actually framed it!!  LOL!!!!!!!!

Picture of My Day: Yoyo in Motion!

This is a yoyo!!  Hahaha!  I bet no matter how many times you've guessed, you wouldn't know this is a yoyo!!  I just started playing this toy at home during last weekend.  The neat part is that, it lights up in red when it's 'in motion'.  So I figured it might be cool if I take a picture of it while its 'moving'.  =D  To take a shot like this, I went into my room and pre-focused my camera to the ground, then I sort of threw my toy out and once it's in motion, I snapped!!  Silly huh!

Here is actually another shot of my lightning yoyo.  Mom said it looks like a flame moth!

Picture of My Day - 燒雞翼

燒雞翼我鍾意食～～ =) 應該要多謝周星星大人把燒雞翼這個香港地道文化推至高峰！=D  往時母親大人常常在燒臘店買燒雞翼給我吃，一盒有四隻，隻隻都巨大無比～  雖然味道次次略欠而且肉質有點硬（可以是因為凍食的關係），但每次我都會把整盒雞翼吃完一件不留～  嘻～  長大後與友人燒烤，雞翼往往是我最後選擇會燒的東西，因為所需的燒烤時間十分長，等到雞翼全熟時我都餓死了～～  加上一隻雞翼通常要燒十到十五分鐘才熟透，但吃掉整隻雞翼卻只需一分鐘多，不太化算...  我...嘟係燒魚蛋算喇...

Picture of My Day - Pork Jerky

Gosh, I feel so bad 'constantly focusing on' my blog every minute when I'm at work!!  LOL!!!  Yes, these are my Mom's product - pork jerky!!  She made it from a huge chunk of ?? pork...  Boil the meat first, then shred it into bite size pieces after it's cooked and completely cooled.  Whats the next step I have no clue, perhaps something to do with the oven?!  I bet you this thing has no fruit juice in it!  =)  So Mom, are you happy now??  Your pork jerky pics are on my blog!!  LOL!!

 I bet you it doesn't look like pork jerky from this picture huh?!

I'm sorry to say but these pork jerky are extremely dry, hard and chewy....  Perhaps it's just that specific piece that I picked?!

Maybe I shouldn't be complaining 'coz I don't even have a clue of how to make this!!  .................

 Mom offered me to bring some home but neh... Maybe next time! Hahaha!!

Picture of My Day - Balcony View

My balcony faces North and this is what I see every morning when I get up...  Fresh and relaxing huh?!  Sometimes I can see a Re/Max balloon in the sky too!!  From my balcony, I can easily see Richmond Hill (of course), Markham (used to be able to see Times Square as well), Thornhill & Vaughan (I can spot the roller coasters in Wonderland!).  Now my views are shrinking as there are more and more high rises condos built right in front of my place !!  Aiya!!  I wonder when these new buildings are gonna block my view completely!!  ...And by then I will probably get fed up and moved to another place~~

Picture of My Day: Monster Truck

I was driving on Hwy 7 one morning and saw this monstrous vehicle in front of me.  I didn't have a chance to get a closer look 'coz it turned south on Warden...  I wonder what it does...  It looks like some sort of hole driller; or maybe it's a disc harrow that 'cuts ground like butter'?!  Mmm.....  Disc hallow can be use for plowing farmlands but there aren't any farm around...plus, its in mid November now and it's going to snow soon...

Here is another look at this monstrous vehicle..

PS, today's topic must be very boring huh?!  Yeah...I know...  Sorry...got nothing much to write lately and I just made up something.  Tomorrow's topic will be better than this, I guaranteed!  =)

Picture of My Day: Spider Freak

Spider is one of the insect I scare most...  I remembered the place where I used to live back in Hong Kong was close to a hillside, so giant wolf spiders (half of a palm size!!) often showed up in my house!  My parents used to hit it with a rolled-up newspaper and for me, I screamed and ran away!  I guess my spider phobia developed since then.  Yet recently while I was pouring water into a bottle, a spider dropped in!  Shit!  Although it's just a tiny spider, it freaked me out completely!  Instead of draining the water from the bottle and recycle it, I threw the whole thing away!!  @@

Picture of My Day: Congo Tetra Spawn

Still remembered my Congo Tetras?  Those that were being crazily chased by my Green Tiger Barb?  I've moved them over to my 10 gallon bare bottom tank 'coz other fish were chasing these Congos as well.  Shortly after they were settled, they spawn!  I didn't know what to do since they didn't spawn inside the 'plant box'...  I didn't even know which one is a male/female, not to mention if they have eggs or not...  Obviously some eggs were being sucked into the filter too...these shown here are 'left overs'...  Um...are these eggs even fertilized??!  Aiya!  @@

Picture of My Day: Santa Monica Municipal Airport

Santa Monica Airport (SMO) is located about 3 km from the Pacific Ocean and 10 km north of Los Angeles International Airport (LAX), California.  I was going through my 'old stuff' and came across with my pilot guide...  Santa Monica is where I used to live and I took several flight lessons at SMO while I was in the States.  It was fun flying with a low wing Cessna.  Take off is easy: throttle all the way in as you begin to travel down the runway, and pull the handling wheel towards yourself when you hit about 100km/hr.  Landing is the hardest part for me (not to mention those fuel consumption and travel distance calculation)...  From my memory...(forget about launching all those flaps and communicating with the tower): first you need to approach the runway in a pretty high speed, point the nose towards the ground as if you're just gonna crash the plane, then pull the nose up 'at the critical moment' and land with the rear gears...  I didn't get my pilot license 'coz I don't know how to land without help... Landing freaks me out although that's the 101 thing in flying.  Plus, I needed to do a solo flight from Santa Monica to Las Vegas, calculating my own flight course, fuel consumption, wind direction, and estimate my time of arrival + 3 exams... Crap, ain't no gonna make it!!

Picture of My Day - Re/Max the Karate Kid

I was kinda of shock when I saw this...  Re/Max West is now teaching Karate?!!  NO WAY!!  But when I look closer...Re/Max's office is on the right side whereas Master Kim's Taekwondo school is on the left side.  Well...an inflatable doll is a good attraction to generate business but putting it right in front of your own shop and blocking the entrance...that's not smart Master Kim!!

Picture of My Day - Flower Bed

If I tell you I took this picture from a botanical garden, would you believe it?  =)  I actually took this picture from a nursery garden located somewhere in Warden Ave., Markham.  Seeing flowers like these on shelves are normal but not on the floor.  If there flowers were Tulips, I would have imagined myself being at Ottawa or Amsterdam.  =)
