Hi Hi

My colleagues said I haven't updated my blog for a while, so I decide to drop down some words.

First, updates on my knee -- bad, bad, and bad. Ever since the line dance class couple of weeks ago, my knee is getting worse. It can't touch the bed again when I lie down :~ And I have great difficulty walking as well, which makes me very tired every night. (I sleep a lot and I thought it's because of the medicine. But now since I am not on it, I am quite sure it's note due to the pills.) I am thinking to visit another specialist. The Chinese medicine doesn't do me any big progress after the first trial, and making the Chinese medicine every day is a big burden to me as well :P

Second is my continuing education. I am taking a 30-session foundation cert on corporate communications at the HKU SPACE starting last month. Well, I know at least half of the stuff they cover, but I've never attended a similar course before. (My friends in the PR field already advised me not to take a whole degree on it.) I guess if I really want to stay in the field, the cert programme is something I need to do sooner or later, and the outcome is sort of expected -- I already find the course very meaningless and sometimes I even feel kind of frustrated as I find the lecturers can't even deliver the things I know in a confident and well-organized way. But, well, the wrong decision is made. I have to stuck with it till May next year.

At leisure, I stopped drawing and calligraphy classes because of different reasons, even though I would like to continue. Also, due to my knee problem, I stay home most of the time, which means I am not even visiting the museums (I guess I won't be able to visit the museums frequent enough to make my annual pass worths the $$), nor going to shopping :(

So sad.

I had done some craft things though, and am also making some more. I will post a picture later.

P.S. When you have time, I encourage you to visit my cousin's blog to see the lovely dog house my uncle made.

Mom and Sara both said your dog house is very lovely :)

Rosanna =) said...

hahaha...thx. I will tell my dad he did a good job. My mom and dad treat those dogs like their grandchildren...it's pretty funny and scary at the same time!

Rose -- Sara asked why didn't you invite her to Bacon and Poppy's house warming :P
Good that you guys have blogs now with many pictures, so Mom knows what you guys are doing (of course she doesn't understand the English; I only show her your pictures). She always asks about you and sometimes gets quite ignored. Now she can "read" it herself.
I always remember your mom's delicious cooking :) Your parents must be having an enjoyable half-retired life now.

As the neighbour of Ida in the office (we're accommodated in the same room), i certify that her conditions is getting worse. she was even reluctant to go to buy tea snack! it shows how bad her knee is!

hahahaha....If I invite too many people at once, they won't all fit into their house! Speaking of which, Matt and I just signed the agreement to build another house...so we'll be moving next year. I love everyone's blogs! It's so nice to keep in touch. Yeah, my mom and dad seem like they're having fun! They can't wait till we have kids though! I just keep them occupied with Bacon & Poppy for now! I DO miss their home cooking though! I can't cook like they can! I'll put more pics on my blog so you can show your mom. Good thing your mom doesn't understand what I write!! Then it doesn't matter if I write about bad stuff! hahaha...say hi to everyone for me!

Another house? I thought you just moved to this one last year or so.
Sometimes Mom would talk about buying a house too, but then we just went away as if we didn't hear anything :P

Rosanna =) said...

We've been in this house for 3 years already!! We didn't plan on moving so soon, but we'll definitely be in the next house for longer.
So are you guys gonna come to Edm anytime soon?

I always have plan to visit Canada, but it's always very complicated planning, cause I will need to go to Vancouver, Edmonton, Calgary and Toronto during my very short vacation. Short vacation period makes me hestitate.
