Back to work after 1 week of refreshing holiday. I didn't how exactly i survive this whole week without internet, but yeah i did. J's parent and sister came to town for holiday so we've been busy entertaining them which mean a lot of shopping and of course, food. I put on weight obviously.
Oh yeah, i'm officially move to the new apartment for good now =). The apartment is still rather empty but it's ok for now. J's mom give me a lot of "feng shui" advices such as how it's not good having the front door facing the lift because...hmm i can not really remember why...but it must have been something bad. Anyway, to overcome this unlucky position of the front door, she advises me to hang a "pak kua" (which i silently refuse to do) or to the respect of my believe, a blessed cross facing the front door. For those who dont know, a pak kua is a chinese device used to prevent the unwanted lost soul coming to your house and create chaos (such as sickness, pennyless, etc) in your household. As much as i dont like the idea of something transparant living with me, i'm also not that desperate to let my home looking like the set of chinese ghosthunter movie.
"feng shui" is originally a living environment science that exist to create a more harmonious and balanced living. I have nothing against a harmonious living, really, but i dont know...maybe i simply not a believer. I mean...IF people got pennyless or bankrupt, can they really blame the position of their front door? (or the fact that they such a big risk taker, or misplaced their trust to the wrong person, etc) IF a person got sick often, is that really because of the aquarium in the house or the fact that the person is not eating right, less exercise or bad circulation of air in the house?
Ah, but i guess a simple cross wont hurt anyone's feeling.
