A house or a future?
20070826
Dearest Mummy,
First of all, thank you so much for helping me find the coupons I lost. Today I met with my cousins and we had lunch together. I went to Mongkok to help Chung buy a Lumix camera. It's not bad at all you know! It takes great pictures and noise level is kept at minimum. I also bought this drinking water heater for On Yam too. They were bought at a really great deal. Muel helped me get a great offer. The camera was $400 cheaper and the heater was $70 cheaper. I am just so fortunate to be acquainted with so much friends who have been so very kind to me.
But the highlight of the day was not getting such great bargains at all. It was the house that I saw that made my day. My estate agent brought me to a great house today. In other's eyes, it might not be that big but it is spacious enough for me. The current owner had spent so much time, effort and money on the renovation that you would be dumb-founded the moment you step into the house. Most of all, the lobby was not too bad either. It is also located really near to my very first house. But rest assured, I am determined to go to UK. I know I wouldn't have another chance to get into such a well-recognised school again. So, I have a new goal now. I would work really hard to graduate with "honourable" results, find a great job, make my first pot of gold so I could buy a house with impressive renovations in the future!

I guess I should find a place for me too blabble again.
Everything is being arranged to prepare myself for UK now. I am saying my goodbyes to my students and colleagues. I don't know if they will really miss me but they are all very kind. My colleagues got me another gift. A new small MP3 to replace the nano my mom gave me which is mysteriously broken. It is great. It is able to store WAV files which are uncompressed and therefore allow the best quality to be delivered to your ears. After so many years, it is the first MP3 player from SONY that is allows you to drag and drop your files from your computer to the player without using any specified software. It can also record the FM and your own voice. It's brilliant and it is sparkling (literally) white.
Then one of the student's parent brought me a simple dinner after one session. She told me that her boy has been asking her how many sessions we have left. I am extremely grateful that my students are all more mature than when I first see them. Recently, all of them finish the homework that was given to them and they study their dictations or spelling hard. I hope that practice is going to stay with them for life. My best wishes go to them. May their future proseper and may they grow to become the pillars of our future.
Then, then, then, comes the things I can't bear to let go of my hands yet. Again, I have been dwelling at someone's blog for days. I am quite confident that he doesn't know mine so I am free to speak as I wish. A couple of months back he expressed himself quite directly and I have been evaluating him since. I got a bad starting but an impressing end. I didn't know that he is within my comfortable age range and he is more responsible than I imagined him to be. He is farsighted and he is his peers' model. Well, I would take him as my role model in some ways too. He is extremely harworking and most importantly, I am quite convinced that he is someone who can offer me with guidance. So I deduced that he wouldn't be a bad choice at all.
But as always, it is always too late when you discover that something in your hands is much valuable than you think it is. His enthusiasm for me is dead and I am the one to blame. I was the one to tell him that I am going to leave HK soon, may not even be back. Crap! I just ruined one of the great opportunities of my future. Hah. I know I am looking too far ahead but I guess I am being very careful with who I am hanging out with, so I am looking for a serious future. Foreseeing that he would also be thinking this way too was also one of the criterias I have for him. Lately, things have gone complicated. We are blurting phrases, conceived within casual conversations for each other over the majong table. Well, at least we got our message across. We shall leave our story for god to finish.
