dad's birthday leh~ very ���H dik. we had a ���G birthday cake.

can't sleep well these days and therefore always feel tired. i get up in the morning, read the newspaper, then i feel tired and lie in bed for a while. after i gather enough energy, i start to do my autodesk viz homework. after a while i feel tired again, and i go to bed. later i get up and try to read, but after an hour or so i have to rest again. there's really nothing much to do at home. i do want to have a walk outside. i want to break free.

have been reading Anna Karenina at a snail's speed. the storyline is quite predictable, but the language is very �Ͱ�. very good for movies. probably there's a movie for this book already?

oh by the way, last night i watched harry potter 3 with my primary school classmate. the movie was quite good. ho doh twists. as i have forgot what the previous two movies were about, i can't compare. i can just say i enjoyed all of them.

after the movie we went to shabu beef. it's that waitress again. although i didn't like her that much, i still talked to her. yuen loi shabu hai extremely expensive at night. we shared a beef dinner set, but the amount was enough for two ppl.

then we went to yaumati Kubrick. i needed to take a look at the pinhole camera claudie mentioned. i didn't read the note about the camera carefully, but i guess i'll like it.

last night gei hoi sum, but when i onlined after going home, yau bei yun fu hin la ha. no matter what i say, whether i tell him good or bad news, he would still answer, "cool!". ng gur. i don't think he understands. he's living in his own world and never has to worry about anything. it's getting useless talking to a person like this, but i just can't help trying to seek his attention.

there's no use in complaining here to myself. i know i can just walk away. after all i don't have any serious intention. but just as what teribithia says, ppl like us are like that.

and i hope both chiubi and i can have our problems settled. today i've been thinking whethter i should gather my courage and ask that man to return my piano score to me. in case i see him, what am i to say?
