Phone Software Update

After the operating system update, the resolution of my phone camera has been set to the lowest setting.
I didn't know until very recently.
Even as I reset the option, I didn't realized how big the damage was until I have downloaded the pictures onto my computer.
There were actually quite a few pictures that I really really liked but now I only have the low low resolution of them.
ANNOYED!!

Under Attack


My house has been under raccoon attack in the past week. >_<

詹占 and I were waken up at 3 in the morning the other day by the sound of raccoon (to me it sounded like a pig but more evil and wild). The wood on the side of our garage got torn apart with the insulation ripped out. We suspected that the raccoon(s) were looking for honey (we see bumble bees going in and out from time to time). 詹占 fixed it up temporarily with some old wood that we have.

And the raccoon tipped our green bin last night. Argh... There hasn't been any greenbin tipping the whole winter and I guess they are back now...

Raccoons have also decided that our front lawn next to our tulips is a washroom for them. I went out with 小J the other day and smelled something really stinky and thought that some of our neighbour might have put down fertilizers or something. Talked to 詹占 at night and he told me that it's the raccoon. I totally 
forgot about it and went weeding yesterday and almost stepped on it!!!

As much as I like wild animals and that we human have probably invaded the raccoon habitat, I really dislike raccoons!!!

Prince of Persia

Not a bad movie.
I liked the action sequence. Very exciting.

I didn't understand how the world didn't get destroyed tho at the end cos they broke the sand glass. Can someone enlighten me?

And I actually watched some of the special features on the DVD (I actually found a lot of those 'special features' a waste of time to watch... I usually only look for the gag reel). Turned out that they actually built a lot of the scene and with actual 林記, as opposed to use CG.

Old school, but I like it. :)

洗碗方程式

不要跟我說用洗碗機,我講既係用手洗。

我個人知道的大概有兩樣方法:
#1
喺洗手盆開一大盆水,落d洗潔精落d水度,然後用呢盆水洗完之後放咗d水,過水沖,搞掂。
#2
唧d洗潔精落舊sponge 度,用舊sponge 洗完之後過水沖,搞掂。

我個人覺得其中一個方法係洗得唔乾淨的。
先唔講你知我用既喺邊一個方法,你用既喺邊種?又仲有冇其他呢兩個之外既方法呢?
我用邊種,下回開估。

Juliet, Naked

Finished this book a couple days ago. Ever since 小J doesn't spend too much time in my arms, the amount of time of me reading has hugely decreased.


Mildly interesting book. I didn't really like any of the characters tho. It's like one of those movies where everyone's a bit of an ars. And I didn't like the ending much, either.

One good thing about fb is that a few of my frds asks for book recommandations every once in a while and they usually get quite a few responses. I just have to pick through those and see which ones the library has in electronic version. It works out pretty well for me so far.

白走一趟

上星期四睇醫生,星期五reception小姐打電話來話醫生叫我返去一趟,但佢唔知為乜。以為d化驗有問題又或者做漏咗嘢之類。

於是book咗今日,一早去到,發現原來係一埸誤會,醫生係叫reception小姐 make sure 小 J下個月例行檢查,唔係要即刻覆診,阿車!洒哂我d時間,油錢,精神,同泊車錢。

不過醫生好好人,佢係新黎架,以前睇開嗰個走咗,呢個之前小J仲係分裂緊既時候見過一次,我同詹占都幾鐘意佢,所以由佢黎取代本身嗰個醫生我都好開心。

見醫生先生咁好人,一次半次咁既誤會我就寬宏大量唔同佢哋計較啦!

Kick in the Face

Literally.

Happened when I went swimming last night. The pool that I normally goes to was closed for the night so I went to an alternative one instead. Apparently, a lot of the ppl did the same thing so the alternative pool was much busier than normal.

I was doing my own thing without realized that I was catching up to this one person. And that's how I ended up getting kicked in the face. It hurted quite a bit so I had to do a U-turn to get back to the one end of the pool. Took off my goggles and felt with my finger to check the damage. No blood. Good. But further feeling suggested that some skin might have came off.

I ended up going to the washroom to double-check. Sure enough, I was cut. No wonder if hurt that much. I was going to abort the session and go home but looking at the clock, I was there for only about 30min! I debated with myself whether I should stay. It didn't really hurt _that_ much but I was just worried about infection. Who knows how clean these pools are, especially when there were so many ppl last night.

Since I've paid a whole 3.5 dollar in order to get in, I decided not to tough it out and went back in there to swim. The fact that I could keep swimming probably meant that it wasn't so bad.


So far, I have swum twice already in 2012. That's a 100% increase from last year! Yay! haha... This is sorta of my resolution for the year (altho the resolution wasn't really made in the new year and it only occured to me that I want to do it after last swim): Try to go swimming a little more often and maybe even make it a regular thing.
