U.S.A.

glad to see the us is not being soft.  living over here i always like to read press about how we wont be bullied around.  the latest article in the ft (sub needed) entitled "Chinese elite faces curbs on US visas" states at the end, "We cannot move forward if, when differences emerge, only one of us is fully committed and fully engaged,” he said."  i could not agree more.  over the past 3 years ive seen some of the most outrageous behaviour where compromise is not really an option.  many people think it is the 'one child' rule which has created an entire country full of petulant brats who cannot share their toys.  from where i sit, i think that is very true.  it is frightening as well to think there is this gigantic country full of people who cannot get along, who wont negotiate if things dont go 100% their way, who will do god-only-knows-what when they throw their proverbial toys out of the pram.

stand strong us - despite what people say (and they say a lot), i am still proud and will be coming back to you soon...that is unless i am dragged away for this post...seriously, i shouldnt even joke...

and on a lighter, non-political note, it was a great 4 day weekend here with another 3-day'er coming up again this weekend so pictures soon :)

Thanks!

a quick thank you to the anonymous comment-er.  glad you like the posts and youre not just taking the piss...because that would make me sad.

anyway, it was rainy here in honkers on sunday which gave me a perfect excuse to not come into the office and just lounge around in my birthday suit all day long instead.  unfortunately that means i have a lot to do today but it was a great day and worth it!

now i am back at work but it is a short week with friday and monday as bank holidays.  i am, unfortunately, not going anywhere but that is ok - will chill out :) and go to dragon boat practice.

see you soon, party people!

A Photo Update

hen doo tonight...like the bride a lot but not the idea of a large group of girls out on the town...just not my cup of tea..

anyway, since it has been a while, here is a photo update:

Such a Long Time

so long since my last post. sadly there isn't much to report but it has been a tough couple of months. so i am pretty much over hong kong and think have the issue is that ive never mentally or emotionally left new york. so as I try to make my way back to where i belong, i struggle to survive in hong kong. i find my life lonely and heart empty just to trying to get through it all.

ok, enough whinge for now...tomorrow is a bank holiday and i'm going to hike.

other than that, the mist exciting news i have is that i am working with a new partner who I believe doesnt think much of me...which always is fun...

will post some new pictures soon to at least show my two readers i am still alive :-/
