My friend John told me it’s Black Friday in US now. Definitely not about 13 November, but the Friday after thanksgiving holiday, while retail stores’ account turn from red to black today because of all kinds of crazy sales after thanksgiving holiday.

He sent me some newspapers’ scanning about those crazy sales ad. I found there’re some items’ price tagged $0 after rebate. Great deal! Retail stores open at 6:00 in the morning, and he said he’ll queue outside there at 6:30. It’s just unbelievable, until I watch Bloomberg tonight.

I learnt from the Bloomberg that stores are giving less discounts this year, and they expect a drop in sales on Black Friday. People are quite conservative in spending money, because of the ever-changing oil price tag.

Web stores are getting the highest traffic in this week, since customers are all busy checking price on the web. Next Monday, called “Cyber Monday”, the web stores are expecting increase in sales volume after the “Black Friday effect”.

I wish I can be there, buying a piece or two affordable electronic devices and audio gears in good deal. On the other hand, I’m glad I’m not there, for it saves my pocket.

Having watching Bloomberg for an hour, it brings me back the days studying business and marketing. Good old days!

Last and importantly, I’m glad to know that I don’t have problem watching English-speaking TV programmes. Thanks to “The Apprentices”, “The Amazing Race”, “The Rebel Billionaire: Branson’s Quest for the Best”, “Nip/Tuck”, “Queer Eye for the Straight Guy” and “Lost”.

中秋將至，誠徵澳門兩天遊玩伴，主要節目如下：

澳門文化中心舉辦

1. 1. 陳綺貞＆友人《旅行的意義》音樂會
      17-18/9/2005 星期六、日 19:00-20:00
   2. 出位廣告大串燒
      17-18/9/2005 星期六- 日 21:00-23:30

我是小小陳綺貞歌迷，Ad Eaters 在港舉行時也參予過這廣告嘉年華會，所以這次決定過大海看 show 去。由於星期六家裏做節的關係，我會看星期日那兩場，初步打算留澳一晚，星期一吃喝玩樂過後回港。星期日音樂會之前，當然也是吃喝玩樂喇！有興趣同行的話就找我喇！

終於熬過了。

二月至三月，每天每夜都在趕錄音。雖然白天不需要上班，但晚上的錄音工作卻耗盡精力心神。而且每晚回家已是深夜，精神卻仍在亢奮狀態，需要數個小時 unwind 自己，偶爾看看電郵，跟朋友們 YM 一下，聽點輕音樂才能進睡。

最近兩星期，我們進入了後期階段，最初的數天還要回錄音室補錄部份歌曲，在家的時間實在很難集中精神做後期，可是無論如何還得開始。那段天氣反覆無常的日子，我著自己要特別留意身體，若挎下去就不成了。手和腳都是冰冷的，在家圍著頸巾對著電腦不眠不休，我開始埋怨天氣的錯。回暖那數天，工作得特別起勁。但長期的睡眠不足讓我意識到我的工作效率正不斷下降。直至上星期我陸續交歌給監製，我開始擔心真的熬得過去嗎？

星期四至日，是最繁忙的日子。
到了星期日晚上，身心疲累，甚麼都不想做，不想管。

回家，把昨晚意大利餐的剩餘物資都塞進肚子內。
沒有開燈，點了夠多的燭臺，希望能讓自己覺得好過一點。

心情沒有好起來。
不想聽歌，怕會觸碰到些甚麼，在電腦看了幾集《海豚灣戀人》。

今天，是每週假期的第一天，把自己關在家裏，好好休息。原來最好的玩意就是跟貓貓玩躲貓貓，跟他們睡在一塊也不錯。

晚上，坐在麥金塔面前，整理電話簿，還把各 Instant Messenger 的 contact list 來個大整合，花了很長很長的時間。沒有了《海豚灣戀人》，慣性的在 iTunes 選了個 playlist。

其實都沒有聽進心內，可能是精神體力情緒也未復完吧！

忽然，那首很愛很愛，會叫我掉眼淚的歌從耳邊響起。
頃刻，心軟得像棉花糖，不知不覺在微笑。

盼望雨天到來真的讓我看到彩虹。

就算遇到難過的事，相信，會變快樂。
不管怎麼樣，都不要放棄希望，只要相信，期待就會成真。
無論碰到甚麼挫折，只要期待下去，就會如願以償。

因為我相信。

After the music camp and holiday on Monday, I go back to work this afternoon. Not much tasks to do as usual. I browse the web all the time, chatting with friends on MSN.

After dinner at home, I start to read a novel borrowed from a friend. It’s 亦舒《朝花夕拾》. I’ve heard this title for decades. Once I start reading, I can’t stop. The author writes romance novel, however, she always add scientific elements to the stories. This is a story of year 2035. The other attractive point is that the male main character is called 方中信 (pronounced as FONG Chung Shun), which the actor takes this name after performing in the movie… and he’s one of my favorite actors in HK!!! It provides me a solid image of the character of novel. After 2.5 hours, I finish the novel with a few teardrops.

Tomorrow is holiday!!! I’ll watch VCDs and go swimming.

Leisure time is so valuable~ \^O^/
