吃食與脾性
不知恁的,前幾日出人意料地溫婉,脫離了我平日的脾性。
大約是與飲食有關聯。
咖啡乃毒物,飲多了,自然暴躁。
不喝卻始終覺得渾身不舒服。
所以隨時需備綠茶沖飲。
常年都是茶包將就,舌尖也自淡出鳥來。
但抗氧化物質始終多少還是有點。
抗癌是不用旨意了,清火,大概還略有功效。
不如開始喝含有三x氰x的物質吧,以毒攻毒,説不定就這樣活到了兩百嵗?

《史記·80後通史》
《史記·80後通史》
初從文,廿六乃成,負債十萬。覓生計,十年無休,披星戴月秉燭達旦,蓄十萬。 不足購房首付,遂投股市,翌年縮至萬餘,抑鬱成疾。醫保曰,不符大病之條例,拒賠。乃傾其所有入院一週,無藥自愈。友憐之,賒三鹿一包,沖而飲,卒。

千古難題
經常有人問事業感情如何選擇其一的問題。
其實問這種問題的人很刻薄,明明就是沒有人會選。
是是是,工作不會叫我「媽」。
對對對,這種頂多是工作,談不上事業。
沒有錯,感情再卑微都是感情,工作僅作糊口用。
身處在兩者之間當然難以選擇,之所謂進退兩難。
所以全社會最最困擾的,未必是低下階層,而是中產階級。
若果每月支信托基金也可以數十萬計,當然是覺得無所謂事業。
假如朝不保夕,但有一個濃情化不開的愛人相痴纏,日子短興許還好,只怕是未幾已經慘遭抛棄。
其實根本無所謂如何選擇,只不過自尋煩惱罷了。
逼到絕路的時候,自然曉輕重緩急了。
當然你問我,我還是答你,我會偏向放棄感情。
有情飲水飽?
對不起,我不能撲扇喝風度日。
日後若然殺出個第三者,我怕是連舉起叉子戳瞎自己眼睛的力氣都沒有。
起碼工作不會騙人,一份耕耘一份收穫。
當然,投資銀行和政壇除外。

so you wanna become an IBer?
as i was opening up tNYT, this comes up first, headlined.
After Frantic Day, Wall St. Banks Falter.
i'm totally speechless.
so after all the glamourous (or not) stories about working in those IB's...(plus the fact that one has to work over 100 hours per week...)
this is the other side of the coin?
so i guess getting a bare pass in finance course (which in turn, led me to an entirely different world of economics, read: pure maths) actually saved me?
otherwise, i'd easily walk down the path and become an IBer working overtime all the time, which as we all know, means that if i'm not up at 6 in the morning and be at work by 6.30 i should be ashamed of myself...
and if i'd already gone home before 1 in the morning, i should be ashamed of myself, too.
...
i guess for most IBers (or anybody in general), my life as a researcher is entirely a waste of life.
i sometimes get up around 11 and work till 9pm and sometimes i start at 9 and finishes around 6...
this also means that i wouldn't get paid enough to afford lots of things, exotic and luxurious holidays... blings and blahs...
but all those "cool" stories of flying on business/1st class if long haul, and staying at 5-star + hotels on business trips according to my flatmate (rolling eyes) are in fact just the plus side of being an IBer?
my IBer friend once told me that he works his ass off in this job -- he gets up earlier than farmers and goes to bed later than those hookers.
so it's the matter whether you want to earn lots of money within a short time whilst trading in your youth and private time.
i guess if someone's really into it and is highly risk-seeking , it'd be absolutely fascinating.
but for me, as a typical highly risk-averse person, i'd just slack off and suffer from being poor for longer.
whether to join an IB is a tough decision, but one is too lazy to sell herself for so much money.
not only am i risk-averse, but also am i a classic example of lack of consistency.
i never wanted to become an IBer, i guess i wouldn't in the future, either.
at least not after reading this piece of news.

關於facebook
我邀請L小姐參加facebook,她一直不願意加入。
「我很懶的。」
「我都是,但是很多人邀請了我,所以我終於加入了。」
「那天有人發了email給我,說facebook 30年後就變成 pensionbook 了。」
「此話怎講?」
「全部都是 xxx died, would you like to attend his/her funeral?」

慢兩拍
其實,我一路很關注此次的立法會選舉的。
強迫症導致我7點未夠就已經醒來要查看選舉點票結果。
沒想到淩晨4點還沒有數完!
返工以後就隔三差五地去那個kiosk查詢。
搞到我同事覺得我強迫症真的很嚴重。
欸,可惜人算不如天算,我一心支持的Ms Mo竟然落敗。
不過Ms Mo還年輕,以後大把機會殺回立法會。
請不要灰心,這次的表現已經相當出色!
下次,一定會更好的!
說到Ms Mo,我有個同學某日問我為什麼認識Claudia。
我說,是香港人都認識她的呀,為什麼這樣問。
他說,"Claudia is one of my best friend's mum." (原話)
然後,我不懂接,所以呢?
她只可以認識你?
又或者,我應該為此覺得你很勁,要阿諛奉承?
後來某日我求證於Ms Mo,她竟然還記得他!
世界,果然是有6度分離的,原來我還一直不相信。
