The story of the shared bathroom in my house during a rainy night

Do you know what is the potential problems when you are having house mates of opposite sex? yah, there are things you will normally do but you don't do now; and there are things you don't do normally but you will do now.

Let me take this to a step further....do you know what is the potential problems if you are sharing bathroom/toilet with opposite sex? Yah, I make sure it is as good as new everytime I finished using it. consciously.

Don't want to take the embarrassment. you want a girl open her mouth to tell you meh.

Few months back, i went into the toilet for shower. when i wanted to put my towel on the hanger i realised it was occupied. my housemate, L, who is a pretty pretty girl just finished with the bathroom. and there were only 2 of us using the bathroom, it has to be hers. I don't have(wear) those things. Is a bit strange..the feeling, and since I don't like those embarrassment so I never ask her to take, instead, I just leave it there. you know, is very different when you see a clean one hanging to dry, compare to one that is dirty (ok, just sweat only) hanging in toilet.

the next time I went into the toilet and it disappeared. I feel so good like spare her a paiseh confrontation. after all you want to treat a pretty girl nicer because either she is single or she has friend(s) who is(are) single.

This morning. I suddenly woke up and realized yesterday night i concuss on the bed without showering. too tired. then quickly went to shower before I go for work. So after a whole day long, I am still the earliest who were home. So i took a nap. 15 minutes ago I woke up went to the bathroom want to shower. Apparently my housemates all came back already and they were zzz liao.

the first thing i saw when i went into the bathroom was again "the thing"!!! but this time round is mine!! I left it in the bathroom and rushing out this morning!! omg.

L also never say anything or "remind" me. She saw me lying like a dead pig on the sofa.

I guess is just...karma. I think she feels the debt is cleared.

1-1 now.

New life

I'm staying in the lab for the next 2 days, probably the last 2 days, for now. Whatever my reasons are, it will be a tough call.

Well, what is behind left my legacy with pride. The next person in-line will replace me and inherit what I left. Ownself say ownself first, I am leaving behind with decent stuff, if the lab is improving, they better pick it up, haha.

Not too excited about the new job doesn't mean I'm not looking forward to it. I'm mentally quite prepared for it and already have some ideas of how I want to going about it. I think the challenges will be kind of different and I will feel good to see myself out-perform expectation. after all, I am such a slow-heated person, like the early season of Manchester United, that believe in consistency more than a moment of brilliance. It takes 38 matches to decide anyway.

That's why we won the title. :P

Also, I feel good for something else. maybe the prophecy is true? This one I am more looking forward to although so many uncertainties ahead.

Wish me luck. With new job, with new life.

给弟弟的信

从前有两个人,一男一女。

男的不是很有钱,女的也不是很有钱。两人相隔很远,也不认识对方。

男人少年高中停学,老早出来工作,帮补家用。男人的爸爸一直叫他快去找老婆。那年他二十有四,机缘来到女人的家乡,认识了。

女人少年初中停学,老早出来工作,帮补家用。在诊所认识远方来到的男人。那年他二十有二。

女人年轻貌美,追求者众,但男人锲而不舍日夜守在诊所外,女人感动。于是,两人在一起两年后结婚。

结婚后,女人嫁鸡随鸡,离开家乡跟着男人回远远的老家。翌年在老家生下一子。当时,两人的财产不到一千块。

不久,男人和爸爸吵架,以借来得两千块划清界限。男人和女人回到他们认识的地方,住在女人老家。但是,女人和嫂嫂摩擦不断,两年后不愿再寄人篱下,买下新房子,又同时生下一子。当时,两人欠下大笔债务。

四年后,长子八岁,次子四岁。又生下一子。生活不好也不坏,就是在慢慢的挨,男人放工后兼职,女人相夫教子之余也在兼职。女人的姐姐是菜农,常送来免费新鲜菜,减轻负担。

就这样,我过了十四年。你们个别过了十年和六年。那是我们的爸妈。

今天早上七点,我突然睡醒,想告诉你们一些东西。

如果昨天你们听到爸爸在法庭上说的话,不要生气他。如果你们听到妈妈的怨恨,不要记着她的话。只要尽你所能做一个孩子该对父母应有的一切,却不要对他们的事情有所判断。我们无法选择自己的父母,可是我们能够选择要过怎样的人生。到了今天,当年相爱的人现在却成了对方心中永远的刺痛。

我们没有值得骄傲的父母,也没有钱。凭着机遇,我们有时遇到很好的朋友,教会我们很多东西。有时遇见很特别的人,让我们了解何为生活。我们的父母是失败的榜样。所以唯一能在父母身上学到的东西,就是不要象他们一样。无论以后发生什么事情,你们要记住男人是应该怎样对待女人,也要对所选择的女人有所担当。即使缘分已尽,不要再伤害对方。最好也让你的女人知道,婚姻是两个人的事,不要把账都算在你头上,然后自甘沦为弱者。

那都是上辈的事情,而且代价大得很,我们最好不要以身试法,也不要沉溺在以前不断回望过去。属于我们的时代已经到来,而我们的未来在明天,不是昨天。如果你不知道这十多年里可以学到什么,你只要想想你的晚餐有几道菜,你读书的学费怎么办,你买电脑书本CD要想几次,再想如果你是他们你可以怎样让现在的你过得更好,你就知道你应该怎么办。

你希望以后你的孩子想起你的时候,会想到什么? 正直,尊严,刻苦耐劳,勤劳,公正,可靠,还是觉得他们会看不起你?

我们无法选择自己的父母,可是我们能够选择要过怎样的人生。

我们的孩子也一样。
