Real Blast! Haven't updated for a while since I want to wait until I have proper scan of my new photos I took from the show, gathering and party. Last two weeks are "quite" joyful weeks.
Finally the book and gifts have been sent. I feel like I have nothing to worry about like the deadline and what was wrongly posted. Even that was not a really big and special dinner but I am just happy for him to have so many friends have shown up. A bit disappointed about some people are missing from the book but I hope some of them are just coming or on the way. Surprise or not surprise... I have tried my best. It is so touching to see how amazing the friends prepared all these things for their friend and how they spent the time to prepare even they were sick and busy. You are the lucky one.

What have to say is recently everyone seems quite into "facebook" thing. I couldn't believe how incredible it can be until I found out some of my really old classmates that we haven't contacted for long time. I can't say we were really closed but I am sure they are some people I used to see and talk everyday. More amazing is we link up each other and then find out more about other old classmates who are not in the facebook network. I now believe when you are getting older and older, you miss your memory so much and start to think all those memory are just as precious as what you encounter.
Last two weeks were also the best time for me to meet some other old friends to hang out and chat. Some of them who I couldn't imagine we would sit down and talk again. So again, when you are getting older and mature. You just leave everything naive and stupid behind and tell yourself why not leave all those old things behind. That's amazing to see myself to be like this finally. And more... when you meet your old friends, it goes really interesting! Interesting as you had been doing really different things through out all those years since you didn't even keep in touch. You can see some of their mindset is so different now and their attitude and personality changed slowly. You can't imagine he/she used to be closed.
Another thing I want to mention is NIN live in Hong Kong. Wow. I got the pass and can take photos at the backstage and stand in front of the hoarding and not more than 1fts away from the band. What to say is... I have sent all film to the lab and can't wait to scan and see how I worked! This time I try another way to shoot and I hope it comes out as nice and decent!
Being excited is not because they are a big band or the legendary of Trent but that was the first time for me to have a proper glimpse of how a professional live/show/concert works and runs. How serious the people prepare for the show and how considerate they are. Sure, I know there are still a lot of different since the organizers, the equipments, audiences and technician are still from Hong Kong. It was like a joke to plug the guitar to Direct-Out channel of the combo amplifier but because this stupid joke for such a big show, you know how important a good sound man can totally save the band.
After the show, I just kept thinking about how the tickets worked out finally at that night and how tired Leo can be as I can feel that just giving out the ticket, answering calls from friends and staffs can make you insane and crazy.
The last thing is I just go the exam result transcript from my mailbox. WOW! That's great!
