No matter where people are… they are either chasing something or someone or the other way around. They might feel tired and exhaust in the middle of the race, but at the end they lose/ get what they expect and feel relieve.
I have been being this situation this week. My clients wanted to have their stock immediately without any in-depth knowledge of printing. It was difficult for me explain everything at once. I did not feel good.
At the same time, one of my clients took the stock without paying a single penny. Her corporate was so called "Reliable" and "Trustworthy". I was asking for the cheque throughout this week. Unfortunately, she said that their account department was still checking the status of something.
Maybe she was a liar.
Having a great lesson of "Chasing & Being Chased", I feel great and know how to deal with people better in the future.
Man, no pain no gain.

It sounds long, but not too short time since my return to my homeland safely.
Flashing back my memory…
Having farewell dinner with Inter Unite in Racha Thai Cuisine- Queen Ann Hill, walking by myself in the downtown Seattle, packing at my studio last minute, crying on the bed the night before the flight, saying good bye to Rahul, P Aw and Misuzu in the Sea Tac Airport… I feel all those things seems to happen yesterday.
Then, my father picked me up at the Hong Kong Airport and asked the date that I would start looking for jobs… it was a scary start here.
The only important things that I have been gifted by the United States of America are a Positive and Fluent in English.
Thank God for that! Otherwise, I will miss out many great opportunities in my life. For the next year, I will not stop here and wait for something to pop up, but to grab every single chance to succeed.
Can’t wait to see my dream come true!
Candy
PS. I want to thank the people who have been so helpful and loving to me in Hong Kong as follow. My family, Carol’s cell, Ocean Unit, everybody in Hang Sing, SEPA 06, KTL schoolmates, Eva, Judy, Noel and many of you who reads my blog here everyday.

Where is my personal space? Is it a place that I could stay alone inside the four walls? Or just a moment that I could spend by myself with no stress?
It is so difficult to find a space like this in Hong Kong. Most of the place is filled with cultural polluted media and rush atmosphere. Some people know where they are going next or so call "Chasing Goal". The
noise in the city is so overwhelming that just makes human beings to feel indifferent.
I was waiting for bus 70 in the Exchange Square and looking around. There was a Chinese religious figure- "Ground- Earth" in the middle of bus which an invisible Security.
Although I don’t believe in things like that, I have found it was interesting picture. Anyway, I need peace in my mind and stay calm in the middle of the crazy international city.

My mom and I have not had dinner together more than a week. I have been so busy that could not have a chance to chat with her. She told me that she has got back all her MPF money and opened the new bank account with my dad. That’s pretty much about it!
Nothing New! I wish we would have more in common.
