40 Things you'd like to say out loud at work


1. "I can see your point, but I still think you're full of shit."
2. "I don't know what your problem is, but I'll bet it's hard to pronounce."
3. "How about never? Is never good for you?"
4. "I see you've set aside this special time to humiliate yourself in public."
5. "I'm really easy to get along with once you people learn to see it my way."
6. "I'll try being nicer if you'll try being smarter."
7. "I'm out of my mind, but feel free to leave a message."
8. "I don't work here. I'm a consultant."
9. "It sounds like English, but I can't understand a damn word you're saying."
10. "Ahhh...I see the screw-up fairy has visited us again."
11. "I like you. You remind me of myself when I was young and stupid."
12. "You are validating my inherent mistrust of strangers."
13. "I have plenty of talent and vision. I just don't give a damn."
14. "I'm already visualizing the duct tape over your mouth."
15. "I will always cherish the initial misconceptions I had about you."
16. "Thank you. We're all refreshed and challenged by your unique point of view."
17. "The fact that no one understands you doesn't mean you're an artist."
18. "Any connection between your reality and mine is purely coincidental."
19. "What am I? Flypaper for freaks!?"
20. "I'm not being rude. You're just insignificant."
21. "It's a thankless job, but I've got a lot of Karma to burn off."
22. "Yes, I am an agent of Satan, but my duties are largely ceremonial."
23. "And your cry-baby whiny-assed opinion would be...?"
24. "Do I look like a people person?"
25. "This isn't an office. It's Hell with fluorescent lighting."
26. "I started out with nothing and I still have most of it left."
27. "Sarcasm is just one more service we offer."
28. "If I throw a stick, will you leave?"
29. "Errors have been made. Others will be blamed."
30. "Whatever kind of look you were going for, you missed."
31. "I'm trying to imagine you with a personality."
32. "A cubicle is just a padded cell without a door."
33. "Can I trade this job for what's behind door #1?"
34. "Too many freaks, not enough circuses."
35. "Nice perfume. Must you marinate in it?"
36. "Chaos, panic, and disorder - my work here is done."
37. "How do I set a laser printer to stun?"
38. "I thought I wanted a career. Turns out I just wanted a salary."
39. "Who lit the fuse on your tampon?"
40. "Oh I get it... like humour... but different!"

Lessons of Love



Read Each One Carefully and Think About It a Second or Two

1. I love you not because of who you are, but because of who I am when I am with you..
2. No man or woman is worth your tears, and the one who is, won't make you cry.
3. Just because someone doesn't love you the way you want them to, doesn't mean they don't love you with all they have.

4.. A true friend is someone who reaches for your hand and touches your heart

5. The worst way to miss someone is to be sitting right beside them knowing you can't have them.

6. Never frown, even when you are sad, because you never know who is falling in love with your smile.

7. To the world you may be one person, but to one person you may be the world.

8. Don't waste your time on a man/woman, who isn't willing to waste their time on you.

9. Maybe God wants us to meet a few wrong people before meeting the right one, so that when we finally meet the person, we will know how to be grateful.

10. Don't cry because it is over, smile because it happened.

11. There's always going to be people that hurt you so what you have to do is keep on trusting and just be more careful about who you trust next time around

12. Make yourself a better person and know who you are before you try and know someone else and expect them to know you.

13. Don't try so hard, the best things come when you least expect them to.

Thank you for sharing Carla!

Shall We Dance?



這部2004年出品的電影,當時因為對卡司不是很有興趣,
所以就錯過了。
最近在逛blog的時候無意間看到這一句台詞:
「我這輩子最大的驕傲,就是你跟我在一起很快樂」
很平凡的句子,好感人的意境,
有著結婚前的我無法體會的簡單幸福。
這些好台詞讓我對這部電影產生了好奇心,
於是在錯過了幾次播映時間後,
我終於靜下來好好看了這部出奇好看的電影。
很恬靜的音樂,把男主角每日通勤穿梭過的芝加哥襯得那樣迷人,
沒有誇張的轉折,每一位角色都非常契合~
看了讓人很想去學跳舞的好電影。


這段讓我感動好久的話出現在電影尾聲,Richard Gere在廚房裡對結漓19年妻子的真心話~
The one thing I am proudest of in my whole life, is that you were happy with me. If I couldn't...if I couldn't tell you I wasn't happy sometimes it was because I didn't want to risk hurting the one person I treasure most. I'm so sorry.


還有這段女主角的話也帶出婚姻的可貴之處
All these promises that we make and we break...why is it that you think people get married? Because we need a witness to our lives. There's a billion people on the planet, I mean what does any one life really mean? But in a marriage, you're promising to care about everything...the good things, the bad things, the terrible things, the mondane things...all of it, all the time, every day. You're saying... Your life will not go unnoticed because I will notice it. Your life will not go unwitnessed, because I will be your witness.



推薦夫妻檔一起觀賞。

原來就是缺了小哥啦!


全美當紅影集Prison Break迷人帥氣Wentworth "小哥" Miller

剛剛吃完晚餐決定出去走走,換上從台灣帶回來到現在才派上用場的短袖上衣,還有價格親切卻效果驚豔的長裙,蹬著小高跟鞋就出門去啦!先是帶了Cold Stone奶昔去探同事的班,然後又去書局幫老公買了本書,還有就是想找找看架上還有沒有監獄小哥Wentworth Miller為封面的那本雜誌,結果真的有喔!是改了版的TV Guide,真是心花怒放,裡面有好可愛的照片呢。結帳的時候女店員看著封面,很有興趣的一直說:我認得這個人,是在哪裡看過他呢?我說Prison Break嗎?她說她並沒有看這影集,我說那電影The Human Stain呢?她也不清楚,那我蠻確定她是從瑪莉雅凱莉的We belong together MV裡認識小哥的了,呵呵!
帶了雜誌回家好開心喔!之前的頹廢不振,原來就是缺了小哥啦!

春天納悶




大概是一進入春天就下了一場雪的關係吧,
這個季節真是有點奇怪。
我依然放了太多的時間在工作上,
上個月因為盤點而緊繃的神經,
好像還暫時放鬆不下來,
還好在密密麻麻的要班表上標下了五月初的休假,
讓我覺得至少有個目標可以期待,
眼前其實有兩個升遷的機會可以爭取,
也不只一個人鼓勵我去試試看,
不過我站在目前的角度,
真的是不願意往更多責任、更少時間給自己這方向走,
所以還是繼續觀望中,
不過年度評估老闆給我表現上的肯定,
所以就拿著加大的薪水偷笑吧。
好友Carla鼓勵我去當她同學,
還很認真的建議鑑識科學課程,
有趣的是我們兩個沒有在追CSI,
我會考慮看看的,
真是個沒有任何動力的懶惰春天呀!

Yes I am in good company :-)



很喜歡這部電影,不說教不硬灌政治理念,
就是一個中年爸爸面對女兒跟自己的小老闆戀愛的心路歷程,
很生活化的對白,以及我很欣賞的幾位演員,
看完心裡暖暖的喔!

這兩位真是太登對了,Marg是最美的媽媽喔。

好想也跟他們一起在紐約街上喝咖啡

這場戲自然得像是被Marg邀請去她家吃飯,打翻的baked ziti可是我拿手的菜色之一呢.

Scarlett平凡中見演技.讓我對她印象更加好.若是找Linsay Lohan演.就不會是同樣的故事了吧.也喜歡阿丹那場送女兒到新宿舍的掉眼淚戲. 

Topher真是越看越可愛.他在Ocean's twelve還揶揄自己接了這部片.真是欠打.

coperate ladder爬呀爬,我有著跟阿丹一樣的無力感


很喜歡這場戲,老夫老妻的甜蜜

小情侶很可愛喔

別忘了微笑喔



最近工作壓力比較大,貼心的同事在交班的紙條上特別寫上一句:
Don't forget to smile!
讓我會心一笑:-)

我承認我最近笑容少了很多,
不過現在開始我要激勵自己:
無論多麼忙,都不要忘了微笑喔!

Thank you my sweetest friends who always cheer me up and make my day.

Doggie Dictionary



Leash:
A strap which attaches to your collar, enabling you to lead your mom and dad where you want him/her to go.

Dog Bed:
Any soft, clean surface, such as the white bedspread in the guest room or the newly upholstered couch in the living room.

Drool:
What you do when your mom and dad have food and you don't. To do this properly, you must sit as close as you can, look sad and let the drool fall to the floor. Or better yet, on their laps.

Sniff:
A social custom to use when you greet other dogs. Place your nose as close as you can to the other dog's rear end and inhale deeply. Repeat several times or until your person makes you stop.

Garbage Can:
A container where mom and dad put food they don't want to test your ingenuity. You must stand on your hind legs and try to push the lid off with your nose. If you do it right you are rewarded with margarine wrappers to shred, beef bones to consume and moldy crusts of bread.

Bicycles:
Two-wheeled exercise machines invented for dogs to control body fat. To get maximum aerobic benefit, you must hide behind a bush and dash out, bark loudly and run alongside for a few yards. The person then swerves and falls into the bushes and you prance away.

Deafness:
This is an affliction which affects dogs when their mom or dad want them in and they want to stay out. Symptoms include staring blankly at the person, then running in the opposite direction or lying down.

Thunder:
This is a signal that the world is coming to an end. Mom and dad remain amazingly calm during thunderstorms, so it is necessary to warn them of the danger by trembling uncontrollably, panting, rolling your eyes wildly and following their every move.

Wastebasket:
This is a dog toy filled with paper, envelopes and old candy wrappers. When you get bored, turn over the basket and strew the papers all over the house until your mom and dad come home.

Sofas:
Are to dogs like napkins are to people. After eating, it is polite to run up and down the front of the sofa and wipe your whiskers clean.

Bath:
This is a process by which mom and dad drench the floor, walls and themselves. You can help by shaking vigorously and frequently.

Lean:
Every good dog's response to the command "sit!" Especially if your mom and dad are dressed for an evening out. This is incredibly effective before black tie events.

Bump:
The best way to get your mom and dad's attention when they are drinking a fresh cup of coffee or tea.

Goose bump:
A maneuver to use as a last resort when the regular bump doesn't get the attention you require. Especially effective when combined with the sniff. See above.

Love:
Is a feeling of intense affection, given freely and without restriction. The best way you can show your love is to wag your tail. If you're lucky, a human will love you in return.

很可惜的我除了他的作品外,

希望有朝一日能對這位奇才有更多的了解。

這部1980年的浪漫經典,26年來不知感動了多少有情人,
英俊挺拔的Christopher Reeve和美得令人屏息的Jane Seymour,
譜出歷久彌新的感人愛情故事。

與這部電影同樣著名的,是John Barry譜寫的原聲帶以及拍攝地點Grand Hotel,

Gregory Colbert的奇幻動物世界


在翻閱一月號「浮華世界」雜誌時,
與Nip/Tuck並列2005 BEST OF THE BEST名單的是攝影師Gregory Colbert,
他取鏡象群的專注姿態,以及大象們身上反射的光芒,
令人好奇他的攝影作品,
回家後找到他的網站Ashes and Snow,
得以一窺他奇幻的動物與人類攝影世界。

Gregory Colbert今年45歲,來自加拿大,
這位在2002年之前幾乎是隱形的低調攝影家,
過去十年並沒有代理的畫廊、未曾接受訪問、
也沒有大企業的贊助,只有來自世界各地財力豐富的熱情收集家,
持續的贊助他完成夢想。

為了捕捉人與動物間和諧相處的完美瞬間,
過去十年來Gregory Colbert遠征世界盡頭27次之多,
足跡踏遍印度、埃及、緬甸、斯里蘭卡、肯亞、衣索比亞、那米比亞、東加王國、亞速爾群島、北極以及婆羅洲。
Gregory Colbert的每一幅作品都是捕捉發生的瞬間,許多人在第一次接觸這些照片的想法都是:這是人工合成的畫面吧!
然而這些畫面都是未經任何影像編輯、人工燈光或是特效處理。

一直到2002年4月份,Gregory Colbert才在紐約成立自己的畫廊,
並首次公開展出作品,巨幅的動物與人映像配上大自然音樂,
讓人有置身奇幻世界的錯覺。
Gregory Colbert最引以為傲的,是他的收藏者從未將他的作品轉賣過,
Brad Pitt所收藏的Gregory Colbert作品,現在仍掛在Jennifer Aniston家的牆壁上,
無疑的Gregory Colbert將是今年最耀眼的攝影師。
