InterContinental Hotel in Melbourne

這次來墨爾本選擇了InterContinental Hotel "The Rialto". 入住前一天才正式開幕(grand opening)，雖然已經軟性開幕(soft opening)三個月了．

這座受古蹟保護的古老建築物於1891年落成，　據說當時墨爾本正是全世界最富有的城市．置身於其中，其實真的可以隱約感受到當時的奢華．．．

澳式足球瘋 Crazy for AFL!

說起來很有趣, AFL對於美國人來說就是American Football League美式足球. 就是那種全身上下武裝具全的行頭, 一群人人高馬大互相一而再再而三的衝撞, 這樣一個魯莽的比賽. 而我這裡所說的AFL, 其實是同樣一群人激烈粗魯的衝撞, 卻完全沒有任何人身的保護, 這樣一個幾近瘋狂的運動 - Australian Football League 澳式足球.

When you read the word "AFL" , y...Read more

Twitter!!

Alright, maybe I am not an early adopter. After perhaps 4 weeks hearing my friends raving about "Twitter", I finally registered an account with them.

But at least I registered the account earlier than, Ellen Degeneres talked about it on her show, and Sydney Morning Harold devoted two pages in The Good Weekend for its p...Read more

盤古七星看夜景 Beautiful night spot in Pangu Seven Star Hotel Beijing

昨晚好友很神秘地, 說要帶我們去個"不為人所知的好地方"看夜景.  

上了車直奔二環三環, 離我們熟悉的區域越來越遠, 然後突然不知不覺地, 鳥巢與水立方就在我們的面前炫麗地閃耀著.

原來我們要去的地方就是位於鳥巢和水立方一側鼎鼎大名的"盤古七星酒店". (這名字取的好, 居然還自己附帶個"七星"呢~!)

Last night we were told by our friend in Beijing that we were going to a fantastic night spot that "no one knows about". The suspense was unbearable~ I mean, a place in Beijing that "no one knows about"? Perhaps it means "only less than t...Read more

北京新春跨年煙火 Chinese New Year Fireworks in Beijing

北京的春節最壯觀的就是民放煙火了 ;-)

西方跨年都是政府安排策劃的, 北京這裡則是人們自個兒掏腰包, 甚至是炫燿財力的機會, 除夕子夜一到滿城煙花, 壯觀極了. 根本不用委屈地在公園裡還是馬路上排隊等位, 自家的窗戶就是好景點!

P.S. I didn't take this photo :-P

牛年新春如意吉祥~ 牛牛牛~! Happy Chinese New Year~!!

CELINE在此跟大家拜年了!

跟去年道別,希望大家在工作方面呢, 都能夠找到這樣的工作:

錢多事少離家近

位高權重責任輕

橫批: 睡覺睡到自然醒

牛年牛牛牛~!

頭髮剪了...

今天把留了十二年的長髮剪了.

幫我打理頭髮多年的日本設計師還遲遲不敢動刀, 不斷地問:"真的可以剪嗎?"

"剪了吧." 我堅決地回答.

日本的習慣是, 當女生失戀的時候才會把長髮剪了. 所以我的設計師才那麼小心翼翼地, 像是怕傷了我的心似的.

其實沒有什麼驚天動地的原因, 充其量就是膩了吧. 雖然跟了我十二年的長髮, 也可能是一種過去的包袱.

我想著曾經愛過我的男人們戀著我的長髮, 要我許諾永遠不變. 當然最後我們都變了. 我的長髮沒變. 它有時淡有時深有時淺,  跟著我走過心酸心碎快樂狂喜, 而我不肯剪的原因竟然只是因為害怕沒有了它也許我就沒有了他的寵愛.

所以膩了. 膩了當一個沒有自信心的小女人.
