奥林匹克运动会开幕典礼结束了。
“WOW!”
似乎没有更好的形容词。
张艺谋总算为自己扳回一城，洗尽满城尽带黄金甲那华丽有余却图显空洞的前耻。
这一晚，依然华丽。
气势磅礴的开幕鼓击、徐徐掀开的历史画卷、铿锵有力的三千人朗读声、从舞台中央升起的变幻星球...每一幕都值得欢呼，每一幕都值得回味，每一幕都让人感叹： “到底怎么办得到的啊？”
但它不纯粹是一场令人激赏的表演。
它是中国人向世界宣示身份的时刻。
他们说：“我们的国土，拥有最悠久的历史、蕴藏着最丰富的文化。”
无论是悉尼还是伦敦，充其量只能做到五光十射或创意有趣，没有足够的内容像中国一样一篇一篇的展示他们的一步一脚印。
他们说：“我们站起来了。”
破烂的胡同、土绿色的素服、或是站在街边脏脏的小孩都不再是中国的刻板印象。他们告别了慈禧、告别了八国联军、告别了毛泽东、告别了那百年的民族自卑。
他们说：“我们没有任何的恶意。”
从千人朗读的‘四海之内，皆为兄弟也’到活字印刷表演所呈现的‘和’抑或是强调和谐的太极乃至于大会主题‘同一个世界，同一个梦想’，都一再表明中国的崛起不会对世界造成任何威胁。
他们还小声的说：“但是我们不好欺负。”
数数他们表演的人数、看看他们整齐的脚步、再听听鸟巢内的欢呼，中国人总动员的力量真的不容小觑。
我曾经很不屑那些过分狂热的民族主义分子。
But they really put up a great show.

A Reminder
I could not write a single post lately.
This was pretty bad.
It meant that I had nothing interesting to tell or I had not learnt anything from my recent life.
What a dull life.
Take it as an alarm Yi Hui - You shall seek for the extraordinary in the ordinary - or you'll fall into a stagnant state.

火柴
它是否只能燃烧一次
擦亮一时
枯灭就此
.
看到了 又看到了 再看到了
周遭怎瞬间变得明亮
自己的影子也不再浑散
一点一滴地拉长
.
模糊了 它消失了 全不见了
影子啊你奔往何方
周遭怎逐渐变得灰暗
你知不知道你奔往何方
.
它是否只能燃烧一次
擦亮一时
枯灭就此
.
你能否再燃烧一次
擦亮一时
枯灭就此
.

回 超人心
当你一直在飞 当你无法停歇
忙着拯救全人类
别忘了地下还有等待你的谁
.
当你遇到拦截 当你精疲力竭
在空中徘徊于进与退
来吧降落在那温暖的小空间
.
超人也有卸下披肩的一天
超人也可以流眼泪
结束那英雄故事
别窒息在那狭隘的电话亭间
.
超人也有卸下披肩的一天
超人也可以流眼泪
别管那世上无知
谁说会飞的人不会累
.
在路上走走 和同伴走走
或许你会发现 你不需再一次起飞
.

Post Exam Craze Ep2
I played too much last week and lost track with my days.
There were so many warm-hearted gathering nights which I couldn't remember which was which.
Technology does assist my degenerating memory.
Many thanks to Weijin, Baby, Jack Hung, and Chengmin's camera.
!st of all, present you another hot mama's splendid performance~ TADA!
[caption id="" align="alignnone" width="423" caption="Black Bean Pumpkin, Forgot-What-Soup, Lamb Minced Tofu and Fried Egg"]
[/caption]
Next, the commercial version yet equally delicious Lygon breakfast!
[caption id="" align="alignnone" width="483" caption="Eggs, Bacon, Sausage, Mushrooms, Salmon, Toast etc. Slurrrppp~ "]
[/caption]
Oops, I think meals above were done during the exam period.
Oh well, who cares... It 'feels' like post exam. Nyak nyak.
And finally, the genuine post exam treat:
[caption id="" align="alignnone" width="483" caption="Photos on food not uploaded :("]
[/caption]
Very original Thai Cuisine.
Those who normally eat half bowl of rice had at least two on that day.
But hor someone did not upload the photos of the delicious food, so let's take a look at the delicious people. XD
We visited Chin's sisters' high school Melbourne Ladies College on the same night. God Damn Hell Huge~~~
Then we went to the park nearby to help Chin's sisters reminisce their good old days.
[caption id="" align="alignnone" width="483" caption="Spin Spin Spin Spin Spin and PUKE"]

Another dinner worth mentioning:
Hot Mama prepared another three course meal!
This romantic dinner was attended by Teo's sisters, Nat, and me.
It started off with a creamy asparagus soup.
Our main course was the Hot Mama's Lamb Chop and her daugther's mixed vege salad + mayo egg.
It was nicely ended with the left-over-mix-drink: pear milk shake. Thanks to camp =.= We still have plenty at home.
Oh yea, the supposingly-three-course-meal followed up with a forth course - Durian Flavour Mooncake.
GRRRR... I FEEL HUNGRY NOW.
But it's 11.42pm. :S

Post Exam Craze Ep 1
Right after exam.
Haven't had any rest.
Felt like not going.
Well... I went.
Luckily I went.
CMG Camp 2008
[caption id="" align="alignnone" width="435" caption="Dear bus uncle, you did not count to three before you snap"]
[/caption]
CMGians seemed enjoying the camp a lot (At least I haven't received any bad comments. Phew~~). Lame jokes were scattered around. Laughter was everywhere. Team spirit was heightened. Everyone's potential flourished. Facebook's traffic, packed with new friend requests and uploaded photos, was so busy after the camp.
Thanks:
[caption id="" align="alignnone" width="423" caption="Quiz: How many meals of Chicken Schnitzel have we had?"]
[/caption]
Desmond and Nat for organizing the camp or we'd have to WALK into a random BUSH SITE and build a tent and STARVE to die.
Chanelle for the creative activities and ideas (esp CMG Oscar Awards Night a.k.a. CMG's Got Talent and the 'pigeon holes' on the walls).
Fiona for being the full-time-camera-hot-chick.
Doris for being another camera-hot-chick and helping out in everything, literally.
Weijin for running back and forth from the kitchen to make sure they know how to operate the gas stove.
Jingharn for waking up really early to prepare the breakfast and staying up till really late to wash the dishes.
Sheryl for being the lovely love cupid.
Kean Leong for Bahhhh~~ing and making all of us stomachache due to excess guffaw.
Myself for being the M.O.C.
[caption id="" align="alignnone" width="423" caption="Our very own Olmpics~"]

[caption id="" align="alignnone" width="423" caption="Fountain Hairstyle"]
[/caption]
[caption id="" align="alignnone" width="423" caption="Jun Wey had gloves?!?!? I never knew tt it was so hygienic"]
[/caption]
All the crazy campers that have participated enthusiastically, from the throwing-stinky-shoes-self -intro-session to the I-don't-know-CMG's-Got-So-Much-Talents-Awards-Night.
80 people a camp.
Not an easy job.
Hopefully there'll be a 80 people production team too.
Oh, maybe not. I need some to buy the tickets and watch the show.
