One of the Recent Talked-about Video

For those of you who haven’t seen the video of a guy of African descent singing Edmond Leung’s 纏綿遊戲, here it is:

The guy’s name is Kemis. The Hong Kong media actually got a hold of the guy and he went on 架勢堂 on Friday on a phone interview. According to Kemis, he works as a sales person, selling jeans. He actually understands quite a bit of Chinese (I guess there was a translator helping him during the interview). He actually sings pretty well… haha

There are certainly some interesting observations. :p

My Johari Window

According to Wikipedia:

A Johari window is a metaphorical tool intended to help people better understand their interpersonal communication and relationships. It is used primarily in self-help groups and corporate settings as a heuristic device to encourage people to open up to another in self-disclosure.

So, here is my Johari window:

Just pick and choose 5 or 6 words that you think best describe me, and see if what I think is the same as what you think. :p

Everyone Can be a Poet

Okay, here is another put something in, something funny will come out kind of web site. But this time around, it actually requires you to follow some instructions:

http://www.fg.tp.edu.tw/~d2351228/money.php

Input the required words, and out comes a poem (sorry, Chinese poem only). IE only, no Firefox. Here’s mine:
天啊入夢
悲哀的夜裡我在馬桶上望著
焚化爐漸消逝,幹漸遠去。
我如何把飛天的豬變成超幹?
我唯一的手指甲漸漸狂奔…
你的背包卻像電腦漸漸陷入沉思裡。
狂奔漸暗幹漸亮,望著悲哀的夜,
電腦遺忘了一切…

As you can see, it went downhill from the 2nd line… =.=”

Here is a more “normal” sounding one, composed with names of songs by 梁靜茹:

勇氣入夢
瘦瘦的夜裡我在最想環遊的世界望著
彩虹漸消逝,純真漸遠去。
我如何把眼淚的地圖變成喜悅?
我唯一的第三者漸漸轉圈圈…
最爛的理由卻像橡皮筋漸漸陷入沉思裡。
轉圈圈漸暗純真漸亮,望著瘦瘦的夜,
橡皮筋遺忘了一切…
