Interesting presentation

Posted in Main Page at 3:59 am by Renato

A friend sent me this interesting presentation. One may or not agree with it but it is unquestionable food for thought. Take the time to look at this, it will be well worth it. Look for the attached FILE named Monkeys. Use Windows Media Player to run it.

惊人的发现

Posted in Main Page at 4:19 pm by Renato

 

今天问Gordo,你觉得我是没有耐心的吧?

答案是,absolutely.

了解我的人, 都认为我的字典里是没有耐心这个词的.

仔细想想, 怪不得人, 每日坐在出租车里, 只要司机开车不够快, 我是坐立不安, 恨不能帮忙踩油门;要是绿灯一亮司机还不开车,视当时的心情而定也许会泼妇女骂街.

这样想想, 自己的性情其实挺不好的, 司机的压力其实挺不小的.

Anyway,在对万事普遍的没有耐心 , 动不动go crazy的情况下, 今天居然发现了有一点是暂时幸免的.

那就是在自己不厌其烦地把一颗一颗的小珠子缝在一见衣服上的时候; 在自己仔细地一层一层用手把rouching捏起来并用针固定的时候,耐心似乎是无限的?

发现了这一点之后, 觉得无比高兴, 无比自豪.

以此记下来表扬自己.尽管Gordo对此不屑一顾.

另外值得一记的是, 今天下午回来打开门居然闻到一股中药汤的味道.

厨房一看Gordo竟然是花了四个小时熬了一锅人参鸡汤,里面放了有红枣, 参片, 白木耳, 红罗伯块,土豆块, 青豆和冬菇, 还有我最喜欢的草菇.

一高兴一口气就喝了四大盆, 肚子马上鼓起来.

喝完后想,Gordo此人还是有生活情趣的, 换做自己, 充其量也是褒一大锅瘦肉粥而已.

没有太多的研究,耐心于我也是一个很大的问题. 一锅需要褒四个小时的汤, 很可能在第二个小时就被不断的”sampling”干掉了….

语言

Posted in Main Page at 11:12 am by Renato

中午约了小Winnie早些去学校,好做完缝纫课的风衣.

急匆匆的.七层楼通常是跑上去的.

在楼下正要加速, 猛然差点撞着西班牙老师—“Hola!”

冲上二楼,又差点撞在新来的巴西老师身上—“Tudo Bem?”

倒霉.

再飞上四楼, 抬头一看, 德国老师正往下走—“Guten Tag!”

到了五楼忽然眼前冷不妨冒出荷兰老师—傻笑一个.无奈.

飞到六楼正要往七楼的楼梯拐过去, 迎面是加拿大老师—“Hi!”

跑上七楼, 快没气了, 忽然看见刚剪了个马丽莲.梦露头的维多,无比亲切地—“我靠!”

丑

Posted in Main Page at 2:22 am by Renato

没脸见人了.

周五上午, 额头左上方标出一颗痘, 从尺寸方圆来看, 很有潜力的样子.

周五下午,在原来的一颗下方, 又一颗冒出来. 原来的一颗发红了.很茂盛的样子.

周六上午,两颗逗逗一起发黄,这青春呼之欲出.

到了周日,右额角上多了四颗,比起左边的三颗,那是更猛了.

当然, 在这两堆的主要势力中间, 还有零星小小的逗逗群…

天啊, 救救我吧, 一把年纪了, 还长逗逗…

不就是吃了点辣椒么?

不就是吃了很多很多辣椒么?

不就是连续半个月顿顿吃辣椒连褒个粥也洒了n勺辣椒么?

但是, tell me,为什么凡是可以享受的东西, 不是不合法的,就是不道德的, 要么就是让人变丑的?

全身最差的那几寸皮肤, 就长在脸上.

但是, 不可能见人就扒了衣服说, 你看, 我的皮肤其实不错的, 除了脸….

冤啊…

决定戒辣, 戒烟, 戒酒,先实行半个月, 成功后实行一个月, 再成功后实行半年.

再成功后可以继续吃. 估计那时候身体状况已经调节过来了吧?

visit Nancy

Posted in Main Page at 8:59 am by Renato

Last week I went to visit Nancy and her husband with Mira.

Actually before this one month’s break,

Nancy was officially single. The couple came from

Rio, where the husband works, for a vacation back home and registered the marriage.

Wa-ha! I am so proud of myself. My first attempt to matchmake 2 ppl turned out a big success.(Probably the last time because when  things get edgy you kinda feel responsible and that is not a good feeling…)

Anyway, so far so good.

Nancy now is a happy woman. A woman who wakes up in the morning, prepares breakfast for hubby, rests a while and goes running, came home for a shower and lunch, afternoon nap, little shopping and goes to language school in the evening, comes home to prepare dinner and goes to bed feeling an exhausted person.

A very busy housewife indeed.

Unlike the husband, Nancy finds life in

Rio very relaxing and enjoyable. Biggest difference, she said, is that one feels way less pressured mentally. Life is lighter, less serious over there.(but one should see how lazy the

Rio ppl are, she added.)

I flipped thru the pictures she took of the places she went, the house she lives in by the sea and found it easy to understand why she wants to stay for the time being. Most amazing is, she even could understand and make understood in Portugueses. We all know, this is not easy at all for a language “genius”like her. Kakaka…

Nancy has quite a big apartment in a very nice condo in Shenzhen. This is being used like 2 times a year currently. The apartment is simply decorated all by herself which she regrets much. It was not easy to decorate a sizable apartment from a cement box, last year she worked so hard to the point that the building guard thought she was some construction worker hired by the owner of the apartment. However it turned out quite ok.

There is a huge balcony that I totally drool over each time I set eyes on it.

Nancy’s husaband is a very quiet guy. Before I fixed him up with

Nancy
we used to talk more. Now that he is close to

Nancy
he became more shy. We hardly talked but he paid our lunch, kakaka….

End of the trip we had to drag a big tout bag with the cachaça I requested and some hams and cheese that

Nancy thot I might like. The only thing that I could use, end up being the cachaça since the cheese and meats had all gone bad during the trip.
