    My Definite Chief Aim

    I, Bruce Lee, will be the first highest paid Oriental super star in the United States. In return I will give the most exciting performances and render the best of quality in the capacity of an actor. Starting 1970 I will achieve world fame and from then onward till the end of 1980 I will have in my possession $10,000,000. I will live the way I please and achieve inner harmony and happiness.

    The real Bruce Lee said this? The $10mil achieved by him?

    I read a quote almost like this yesterday. And I agree because of my random thoughts about paper cut.

    So we here in Malaysia were warned on Thursday to expect heavy rain due to Tropical Storm Nock-Ten that's moving our way. It poured on Friday morning, and again today, Saturday. I drove (more like "inched" actually) through rain so heavy that I could hardly make out anything in front of me (or behind me, since the wing mirrors were completely greyed out and some idiot drivers simply didn't bother to switch on their lights) on a water-logged highway and got to the office despite it being an off-day because some lady insisted to my boss that she had to come visit. Since my boss had an earlier appointment (it's the boss' off-day too), I had to see her instead. Then, the lady called up and said that she couldn't come because of the rain! And she stayed just around the corner! What nerve!

    When I listen to this song in my student days (I first heard of this song when I was 11), I never felt anything for it. I thought it was just a nice children song. But, listening to it as an adult and see time passes so quickly, I really feel for this song very much.

    My 5.5 pound dog just farted while sitting next to me. How can something so cute and small produce such a toxic smell? Ew.

    Ho Kwok Wing, does he not act anymore? This is my first time listening to his Cantonese cause the series that I've watched with him in were all dubbed.

    I think he still do. I vaguely remember watching on TV, a TVB drama with him in it. Then again, those drama that came onto the local TV in here are mostly outdated. I think that show should be filmed 2007 or 2008 if I'm not wrong.

    He's not with TVB anymore. After he left TVB, he became Chow Yun Fat's personal dialect coach. But, now he's doing theater work.

    Check out his blog for updates of his activities.

    Yeap. It's this song. The version I heard when I was 11 was sung by Agnes Chan. But, I heard a version sung by another yesterday and found that her rendition was able to bring our the feeling of time passing better. The host said it's Joni Mitchelle, but, I couldn't find that specific version on youtube.

    First date ideas: "jump off a cliff or local bridge (be extremely careful)".

    Umm, yeah. What's the next date gonna be? Run through a war field?

    I bought 6 used CDs for $8.56. The awesome part is that they all look like they've been only used once or twice so no scratches or anything. I definitely need to go to the thrift stores more often. I unknowingly bought CD by Samuel Tsai and this whole time I thought he was Wong Kit.
