The False Blog

Last night, TVB Pearl showed the Westlife tour in 2006, Face to Face Tour. That’s really surprising and exciting. It’s so great to see their handsome faces on a bigger screen. It was wonderful, of course. I watched it on the biggest TV we have at home. Totally wonderful! Though, as it is expected with TVB, a lot was cut from the show. A lot of less popular songs were cut, and the medley only had Don’t Cha left (that song was really hot when they sang it!), and all of their talks were cut as well. So today I listened to the tour on my iPod. Nothing cut except the video.

What’s more surprising is that I saw Westlife again today. I saw them in New Town Plaza in Sha Tin (after visiting relatives). There’s a huge screen in the plaza. It was showing their MV of Amazing. I could read the lips of Shane – he was singing the second verse when I looked up and saw his handsome face. I went a bit crazy after I saw them. There’s an aunt there who doesn’t know I love Westlife and didn’t know why I was looking at the screen and with mouth opened and laughing and singing. I told my sister and mother to see them too. lol That’s really amazing. I think this is the Year of Westlife!

I wonder did anyone actually thought about the puzzle that Mr Lo talked about in the assembly, but I did, and I am glad to say that I solved it rather quickly. I knew the answer before I finished climbing the stairs to the fifth floor.

The puzzle is this: the ten numbers, 0-9, are put into three groups. Group A has 1, 4, 7; B has 2 and 5; C has 3, 6, 8, 0. The question is where 9 is put. Mr Lo said it’s not about calculations.

My solution is like this: In group A, the numbers are formed by straight lines. The numbers in group B are formed partly by straight lines and partly by a curve. Those in group C are entirely in curves. Therefore, 9 can actually be in group B or C, depending on how you write it.

I didn’t find Mr Lo for a confirmation or the prize. I just forgot it and I don’t think I would really find him if I remembered to.

We all have a lot of papers lying around. It’s really annoying to have them piled up around your desk, isn’t it? And the unorganized pile makes your mind unorganized, too. One thing I have discovered is that sorting out all the mess can help you not only to get a tidy desk for work, but also to clear up your mind. And suddenly, magically, you will be happier as well. This happens to me anyway.

If you have seen me reading the book “Getting Things Done”, you can probably guess that this tip more or less come from it. In fact I don’t remember if it actually says something like this in the book. The author, David Allen, recommends us to take some time every week to review all our things, and the nasty pile is included for me. (But, if you follow the book closely, you shouldn’t have a nasty pile in the first place, as everything will be filed in a proper place once it gets in.)

I haven’t recommended this book on here before, what I want to say is that this book is really worth reading. It’s a really great book.

PS: I bought the Doraemon schedule book that Kitty has had for a while. I ran across it a few days ago and it was too hard to resist.
