Type A or Type B?

CASE 1
You go to this new hotel and order a cup of regular coffee.  Then, you realise that it costs $100!  The coffee arrives and you have the first sip.  YUCK!!  It tastes like mud!  Now, what would you do?

Type A:
You'll have to pay that $100 anyway, you decide not to further torture yourself by finish up that coffee.

Type B:
It costs $100!!  You better finish that damn cup of coffee.

CASE 2
If you use a lot of kitchen papers, you'll probably be destroying woods and forests.  If you use table cloth instead, you'll need to wash it with detergents.  Is detergent environmentally friendly?  Well, you'll surely need water.

Type A:
Use them reasonably.  Use the cheapest when a lot is needed.  Use kitchen paper when it's too troublesome to use table cloth.

Type B:
Insist that there should be a more environmentally friendly between the two.  Do a lot of research and find the best solution.

死都要按


每次到上海一定去老鋪 dragonfly 按一按。我試過中、日、香薰 (RMB135) 及普通修甲 (RMB100,全 O.P.I. 產品)package 10 8 折,20 7 折。見 2 老外都修甲 (男士RMB80),問有冇男人要油色。一般油都油淺色,有個 model 試過要油 sharp 嘅色。聽聞街口附近有好多此等乸型 (metrosexual) 出沒。 Gotta check them out sometime!

Local Fast Food

中國人都有好多種快餐。鬼佬有炸雞炸魚,上海有蒸雞-振鼎雞。



呢個早收鋪 19:00!

Shanghai - Soho


咁紅重認唔到?

懶 + 後面有人 = 無映自已,映前面


賣泰國嘢,夠特別囉啩。(除咗米,家,人妖)


連 okusan 都咁前衛: PJ + 黑色村姑鞋!

响上海好多餐廳唔知為セ唔比映相 (又貴又唔特別嘅 1931 就系其中一個嘞) ,所以無セ點映。加上唔記得帶 charger ......

2007 Shanghai F1 事件

A 話有條似西班牙仔打尖,叫佢排隊,佢猛話 "come on" 。

Come on ,排隊啦!Come on !

牙仔唔知點樣响後面排排吓走咗上前去到 A 到撩事鬥飛。 "I'm here!" 然後正甩 A 頂帽。 A 就掛住响地下揾帽 (成 RMB300 咖嘛)。 A 啲朋友 KH,KW 同 FA 已經將牙仔夾住。牙仔一條友,開始劣。

我問 KH "咁你哋同佢 (牙仔) 講咩呀?"
KH "講英文囉。"
"係咪即係 '英文英文英文...' 咁同佢講呀?"
"......"

KH 係一個 IT 人,講親嘢都激死人。鬼唔知講英文咩!人哋用英文,你就講面班牙文呀?真系比佢激死。

"佢咪猛講 'What's up?  What's up?' 咁囉。"
"咁你點答佢?定系打濕佢?"
"咁我都好斯文嘅,話佢呢啲講英文嘅就好好表現吓自已,咪影衰自已個文族。咁囉。"

我想像出呢嘅:
"What 'what'?  Who the hell you think you are?  This is China!  Are you Chinese?  Are you?  Then don't do anything stupid, jerk!"
實情「呢啲講英文嘅」系咩意思?可圈可點。

Conclusion

Conclusion 寫啲咩好?又寫番 introduction 嗰句?無嘢吖嘛,咁咪即系無嘢寫,無料到。

都系跟亞媽學啦。亞媽講完三篤屁就會問你點咖嘛。你就記住自已呢句,作論文時用呢問番自已「咩點吖?咁又點呀?」

「咩點吖?」就重新番你個立場。「咁又點呀?」就系包括:
1. 有冇對你個人有影响2. 你點睇呢單嘢嘅前景3. 你對呢單嘢嘅感受4. (勁人先好用)有關又應棍嘅名人金句。

只要能夠用到其中一個都夠咖勒。

Diage 2007

Last year when I took a night view of Diage (a restaurant), it was full of lights and grass.  Everybody told me it's beautiful.
Now, there's no more grass, fewer lights and quite a lot of parties.  I guess it's renovated to fit as many people as possible.  How's the food there?  Well, comme ci comme ça.

And this is the balcony.  Isn't as unique as before ~ ~

Topic Sentences 主題句

有中七同學重未掌握到 topic sentence 系乜,响到簡介紹吓先。

主題句 topic sentence 就好似亞媽依依哦哦都系三篤屁咁,三個主題:唔好拍拖 (2nd paragarph),唔好出夜街 (3rd paragarph),讀好啲書 (4th paragarph)。

佢 就咁講句 topic sentence「仔呀,你重係細,咪掛住拍拖著呀。」你緊系唔聽咖嘛,所以佢會講多啲其他 supportive details 。譬如系故事性嘅:「隔籬屋阿蝦仔以前年年考第一,同對面嗰座朱太個女拍拖唔夠3個月啫嘛,即刻要見家長喇。好似話偷同學錢拍拖呀。」咁同我有乜關系呢? 「你咪話想買架『咩拉你』跑車咖咩?成績唔好無前途點買呀?拍拖買唔到『咩拉你』跑車咖。有『咩拉你』跑車駛慌無拖拍咩!」事實性嘅,首先復述『新聞:大 學生為情亡』之詳情再 comment 「你睇,大好青年要生要死,為咩?咁叻仔就蠢响女人手到。通街都系女人啦。廿幾歲仔咋,真系無陰公。可憐佢老母養到佢咁大。」咁就系第二段囉!

第三、四段用同樣手法同格式就叫做 parallel 勒。一樣咖嘛,咪平衡囉。

Dress Code


Today, if your company has a strict dress code policy (especially in details), your company is probably full of jerks that don't know how to dress to work appropriately. You better start looking for better.

-- If you're a jerk, ignore this message. --

A new headmaster, explained that a parent complained a teacher who dressed too sexy. A school with more than a thousand students and teachers, policy changes just because of one anonymous parent's complaint. Anyone can understand the intention of some one behind this political pretence. A strict and detailed dress code is born. All female teachers must wear dresses/skirts. Somehow a dress can do something that pants can't. If that's so, how are those male teachers going to survive without the help of this magical dress? Maybe the headmaster should consider a kilt (
蘇格蘭男用短裙) or sarong (馬來群島土人所著的圍裙). You see, this is a highly-intolerance-multicultural-environmental school.

Instead of dealing with one silly dressed colleague, everybody will follow an ambiguous code. Something that no one can ever completely controlled over. No mini-skirt, and you see someone wears long dress with a split up to the buttocks. No mini-skirt and no split, and you see someone wear a dress and long tights underneath. No mini-skirt, no split and no tights, and one day someone's tits were shown. No mini-skirt, no split, no tights and must have bras, someone wears a swimming suit with a long sarong … How long can you make a dress code? How about just fire the "sexy teacher"?

Overslept at a Sleep-Over

遲到,入到課室只埋頭揾位,因為尷尬,唔知要做啲乜。What's your name?Cha...Si...M...
Cha-siu (义燒) ?
Chan Siu Ming.Sorry, I can't hear you.  Please speak up.  What's your name again?
Chan Siu Ming.  [Now everybody hears that Chan Siu Ming is late.  Quite embarrassing.]OK.  Chan Siu Ming must be very busy.  He's late and didn't even bother to tell me why.  Busy man, but still manage to come to this class.  Let's give him a clap.  [Everybody laugh and clap.]

Chan Siu Ming had a hard time when he was late and impolite.
  陳小明遲到又沒禮貌時被刁難。不少同學遲到進課室時都很沒禮貌。遲到已經衰咗,入到課室又唔敲門又唔道歉又唔打招呼又唔解釋......衰多幾成。酒店都有限時 check in (登記,報到) 啦。如果老師系老板,呢位同學都唔駛揾位,返屋企等運到。


遲到嘅原因一般都系瞓晏咗。咁就應該話: I'm sorry.  I overslept (用過去式).  咪只系講瞓晏咗,比埋個原因。  Because you shouldn't oversleep. 


oversleep 即「睡過頭」;而 sleep over 即 (phrasal verb 動詞) 「睡在別人家」,sleep-over (noun 名詞)。在外國,小朋友都很愛到朋友家玩,然後睡,起來又可再玩。亦叫 slumber party 。在香港,地方小,比較難招呼其他小朋友 sleep over。大朋友 (尤其一男一女,或有特別性取向嘅兩個成人) 就叫 sleep with (someone) 喇。

A:  Did you sleep with X?
B:  I'm not answering this question.
A:  Did you sleep with Y then?B:  I'm not answering this question.
A:  Did you sleep with Z?
B:  I certainly did not sleep with Z!
