Oh I wish I am sophisticated

Published by Shane under , on 7:35 AM
Years ago Hugh "House" Laurie had a great song. This is him being very sophisticated, at his best.

I wear sophisticated clothes
I say sophisticated things
Everything about me says
I'm a sophistication king

But when I'm with you
Can't seem to find my cool
Yeah, when I'm with you
I just site there and drool

I got sophisticated hands
I got sophisticated feet
A sophisticated car
Parked on sophistication street

But when I'm with you
Can't seem to find my cool
Yeah, when I'm with you
I'm just a dribbling fool

When you look at me and you start to flirt
I have to wipe the dribble off the front of my shirt

When you ask me what's on my mind
All I can think to answer is... "fluh-uh"

I eat sophisticated food
I breathe sophisticated air
I run a sophisticated comb
Through my sophisticated hair

But when I'm with you
Can't seem to find my cool
Yeah, when I'm with you
I'm just a dribbling... fool


I'm thinking he was the one wrote this piece of crap which sounds "crappily" funny.

Stupid is as stupid does

Last Sunday night, after having the lovely 'steamboat' dinner with my fellow colleagues, I bought myself some DVDs (please don't ask me where I bought those from) to further motivate me to get through the predictable hectic week (the nightmare WW04 as I have mentioned in SoS). In the pile of DVDs I have got, Forrest Gump laid there untouched until today. Thanks to "the others" such as Nancy Botwin, Greg House and Liz Lemon who couldn't show up because of that bitchy (*slap slap*) DVD player (or maybe the DVDs). Gump, at the other end, is a good boy.

I couldn't recall the last time I watched this. Most probably it's just once and that might be more than 10 years ago. (I checked out the release date of this movie, it was 1994). No wonder I couldn't recollect the emotion, the tears, the brilliance. Gratified, I think Forrest Gump is like a genius at work. Director Robert Zemeckis, crafted the character of Forrest as simple as he is, led the audience walk down the memory lane of his. Maybe Mrs. Gump is a real genius (or maybe should I say a real good mum). If it has not been her, Forrest Gump will be seriously heavy (character). Life is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get. At IQ of 75, he told us to be simple and go for it if you want to know what you eventually have.

This is a show, we should watch with our mind relax and let it cure our complicated thoughts. Shouldn't life be easy? It's well-illustrated in the friendship with Bubba, the love he cultivated with Jenny, and the respect he had for Lt. Dan Taylor.

With Bubba
Bubba:My given name is Benjamin Buford Blue, but people call me Bubba. Just like one of them ol' redneck boys. Can you believe that?
Forrest:My name's Forrest Gump. People call me Forrest Gump.
With Jenny
Jenny:Do you ever dream, Forrest, about who you're gonna be?
Forrest:Who I'm gonna be?
Jenny:Yeah.
Forrest:Aren't I going to be me?
With Lt. Dan
Dan:Have you found Jesus yet, Gump?
Forrest:I didn't know I was supposed to be looking for him, sir.
I wish I could be so simple, as pure as him. I wish......
So, after this when I return from vacation, please expect me to be very "gumpy".
Please don't be "grumpy" if you see I wear dirty shoes like this......
P/S: I love Robin Wright (as Robin Wright Penn, was then Sean Penn's wife). She's just a lovely figure to watch just like her being in Message in a Bottle. I love Gary Sinise (*grin*). Even he was a handicap, he was fantastic.

Moment of Truth

Seconds after witnessing Roger Federer come back from a 0-2 deficit and win against Tomas Berdych, I am truly gratified that I live in such a golden era of his. 6 years ago I saw Tim Henman, the English hero completely fell to his knees saluting the greatness of this man. From there he emerged as the most respectable world #1 since Pete Sampras. It was last year when he threw away his throne being at the peak of world tennis as the young lion Rafael came and shattered his monopoly.
Even though he is no longer the world #1, his opponents still fumbled whenever they heard of the draw against him. This afternoon, he showed me what a champion is made of, the solidity of mental and physical strength. I salute him of still believing miracle could shine, again and again he tested his Czech opponent and finally he got the breakthrough at Game #7 Set #3. Since then he never look back and blew away the 23-year-old who had lost to him for 7 straight times before. It's a 5-game and 3.5-hour tennis match.
At the age of 28, he pocketed 13th Grand Slam title, 1 short of Pete Sampras's 14. The only Grand Slam that eludes him is the Roland Garros's. He lost to the Spanish Lion thrice (or 4 times I couldn't recall) and last year he failed to make the history of 6 straight Wimbledon title. No matter how people had said Roger will not be able to win another Grand Slam, couldn't match the power of Rafael Nadal on soft ground, or 2008 is the year where we saw his light faded, I still believe in him and he's still my all-time favourite tennis player.

Federer reacts after winning his 5th Wimbledon title.

I would like to see more of his impressive ground strokes, his sharp aces, his forehand cross-court and backhand down-the-line, his remarkable defensive overhead lops, and his sportsmanship. My dream is to watch him at one of the Grand Slams.. I really love to..

挥别。展望

首先,我要感谢那些关心我的人。谢谢你们多天以来的劳累,辛苦了。为了不枉费你们的心机和那极度好奇的好奇心,我要在这里向大家宣布,我非常侥幸,十分荣幸,万分庆幸没有被殃及,我的饭碗虽然是木做的,但还好现在是“水浸眼眉”,它还能像椰壳一样,浮在水面。我知道椰壳是不切实际的,因为一个大浪,自然就会船翻人溺毙。
我真的不想破口大骂,或者埋怨大家好事,因为我知道我真的是有一群关心我的朋友。然而,我真的希望大家都是衷心的慰问,而不是问完一个问题后就扮个鬼脸,或者还没了解一切就先问“你到底以后会有什么打算”。我的信箱最近被人轰炸,问问题之余还互相揣测。例:你几时搬到半岛?
我现在很庆幸我不是被牵连的人,但需要承认的是经济真的陷得很深,如果有一天我被辞退了,我也没有怨言,因为真的是时不予我,或者是我的表现差劲,留着我也没有意思了。还有,要是人老了无法跟得上时代的步伐而被淘汰,这是难免的。如果你是个有思想的人,应该先有警惕,然后再反省自己是不是块值得琢磨的玉器。
2008开始得很美丽,结束得很不景气,是时候再思索一下,自己的价值,准备打一场实在的硬仗。

I would think a single woman's biggest worry would be choking to death alone in her apartment.

You nailed it, Jack Donaghy!

Here comes the change, today

Washington D.C. - High 31F Low 19F

The excited crowd are waiting......
to see this man making history.
Change will not come if we wait for some other person or some other time. We are the ones we've been waiting for. We are the change that we seek.

Ain't feel better

When our car passed by Northam Tower and Leona sang It's been the longest winter without you, the immortal nostalgia came back to possess me.
All the good old days didn't take place here but it stalked me wherever I went.
Sometimes I feel helpless.
Just like tonight. Right now.
The wind slashed my face and my heart started to weep.
The human heart.

原来,我的懦弱不曾离开。
我害怕失去,因为拥有时的不实际、短暂和歉疚。
最痛的原来是,放手后伪装的坚强。

It's gonna hurt when it heals too......


Bring me a cup of Aztec Coffee please......
