今天的头3卜都是上上签呢O_O As if something good is gonna happen! 心理暗示ing ^^
夕立ちの庭 - 事情一下子明朗了
一番素敵だった日 - 非常开心的一天
Rhythm - 最近精力充沛
原稿，美杜沙版本的Tra
大概涂了一下。
被虫子咬了3处，冒出惊心触目的红块，又肿又痒。再没心情做事了。

Do it do it do it do it!
Very excited at the idea of starting our own design business. Tramy brought it up and I said, let's do it. Joint venture? Let's see.

Galaxy of love
'Remember to submit the SIN card and death certificate in order to prevent fraud' - notice of security for the deceased.
'Death certificate' struck me as foreign but in second thought, if there's birth cert, surely there's death cert, as morbid as it might sound. Then there's also marriage cert and college diploma. We have so many IDs along the rite of passage. Why does it feel so daunting and unwelcome?
Bought a lot of Body Shop creams and lotions for my mum. The problem is, my mum seldom (almost never = seldom) opens and uses gifts. 'A gift' in her definition is to remain packaged and 'gift-giving-able' so she could give it to someone else when the occasion comes. Not even something I handpicked for her would escape her conventional gift filtering system. They do it all the time and the practice totally annoys me. I left a sticker note saying it's FORBIDDEN that she gives those cosmetics away. If I ever find out she does that again, I might as well stop buying gifts. Still they might question why I never bring gifts home. In the past I said I was using their money anyway but someone would remind me 'The gesture is more important even if the money's not yours'. I've never meant it as 'gesture' but if you give it away, you've made it a 'gesture'. What a stubborn funny family.
Two 'thank-you' postcards I mailed to the immigration lawyers. Just wanna keep a soft copy since the design is elegant. I have to mention my work permit expires before my study permit. How ironic is that.
Deers make great appearance in paintings. They're mystic docile beautiful animal!
- The asphalt path in front of my house. The air in Richmond is distinctively refreshing, even better than Toronto. Doesn't take too much effort to appreciate it. But due to extensive use of organic fertilisers (commonly known as shit or dung)in surrounding agricultural fields, weak stench lingers in early morning air, not to the extent I have to hold my breath count to 10 and make a beeline to the office.Still my friend plainly stated 'Richmond stinks'. Alright. She described (no citation) how specialized gliders spread fertiliers in late night and it's not safe to take a breather out the balcony at that time. However my landlord proudly told me 'Richmond is the healthiest city to live in Canada.', something she came across in the newspaper (no citation either).
Decorated the wall this Saturday (hazy effect due to shaky hands) . I laughed to death after revising Jady's photo, how she stole brooms from nuns and pretended to swipe a leafless ground when we visited the garden. Or that time I went to the zoo with Gang. We looked very happy in the photo. It's amazing how that happiness sips through the digital pixels. I also took a lot of photos for guizi before, many of them I consider masterpieces! Narcissistic me speaking.

后遗症
今天干了件非常尴尬的事。
远远看到tTELUS的牌子，想到自己的手机欠账还没付就径直走进去了。我说，I want to set up an autopayment。Telus女问我手机号，报上后她说“没有这个号码。” 还在纳闷怎么回事儿，Telus男友情提醒'That's a Fido number.' 大惊！！很不好意思的道歉，灰溜溜逃走了。
我靠TELUS！ 都是因为这周每天都给Telus打电话叫他们来公司装线，本来说周三的，结果因为非常复杂的内部原因迟迟搞不定，总之那个服务真是欠揍！
去Staples买cutting board，人狂多，才意识到撞上了Back to School销售季节。汗，什么时候不好赶上这热闹。看学生家长走来走去买书包买文具买打印机，原来自己已经不是学生了呀=) 强烈的脱离感。还在苏州的时候经常和妈妈去逛东来仪，是当地老牌的文具店。以前底层全是铅笔盒之类的，现在被手机霸占了。小学的时候为了要一个50块钱?的铅笔盒和妈大吵，后来拗不过我就买下来的。再摆个十年二十年的铁定是收藏品了，盒盖很厚因为里面镶嵌着3D的家具模型，有两层楼，桌椅摆设都做得很精致。现在都用笔袋了，要不就是简易设计的铁皮盒。那文具盒就像沉重奢华的大摆钟，古董一个了。
Hanson的One More很感人。

When I think of you
When I think of you
I get a little tired my eyelids open and close
mercury is weighing between my ears
slipping back and forth back and forth
And soon I fall asleep, not knowing what it is
好几年没写信了，以前玫送的澳大利亚土著人花纹的信封竟打不开。仍旧是崭新的颜色，但因纸张吸潮封合处已牢牢粘住，只好用刀划个口把啰里啰唆的家信照片一股脑儿灌进去。
Sherry依旧为男朋友难觅一事叹气着。我不冷不热，好像一直都不太积极。

September entertainment list
> Preordered Harry Potter book 1-7 adult edition from Amazon.ca (very big savings)
> Michael Ondaatje - Elimination Dance
> Maurice DVD
> GARNET CROW - SPARKLE & Crystallize
First item is advanced from Oct (official release date is Oct 1st). That makes me feel better... I'm a medium spender. Restrict meal expense to <8 bucks per day and I can breathe through this month. After paying back Gang, I'll be bankrupt again.
