I will always be missing you

Dearest Grandma, 

14/08/2009 9:00Pm 

You passed away from us, I am sorry, because I wasn't there to see your last face.

I love you, will forever love you. I hope you can still hear.

I promise you I will be a good man, I know that is what you want.

Love,

Your grandson

Do a little cultural studies bro!

Have been heard quite a lot of movie feedbacks of Transformer. The most I heard about is quite negative and saying the witty in the movie is ''bad gag'' what we call ''爛gag'' in cantonese.

There is no official measure of the quality or wittiness of a joke, as all joke are different when it heard from different people. So I can not judge from a subjective mean, but simply to me and my foreign friends, we love it!

After all these years' westernization or americanization, we got nothing from any of other's culture. We listen to rap and dress in XXL without knowing what the hell is Hip Hop, we tribute to Michael Jackson without knowing his music, we know Brad Pitt is a pretty face dude in the Hollywood movie without knowing his Foundation ''Make it right''. We obsessed with Obama without hearing his full speech once.

So please, their funny jokes is not made for you! How big the Hong Kong market you think really is? If you are not happy with the ''gag'' in Transformer, go ahead and watch the local film and do a little support and contribution to the local film industry, or you are just someone who are not happy with anything at all!

Go into their culture is not about putting their icons on the t-shirt or talk in the way they talk or buying their luxury brand while you don't know who is the designers!

Culture is all about putting yourself in their shoes, knowing their pass and present and even the future, knowing them in face not from TV or magazine! Come on boys, do a little culture studies before you can even judge others' jokes, what do you think if you tell the best local joke to a American?

PolyU graduation show review

PolyU, one of the best design institute in the world, which I had once dream to be there.

I Don't give comment to other field, but advertising.

Idea from them is somehow empty, concept is conversional, no surprise, dull...

How about originality, that is the part which pissed me off the most, media used is not original, don't mention the ideas!

No international sign! and international design institute train students with no international sign at all! Can u believe that?

One thing is good, they insist to use their own taken picture in their poster... but this just making the execution more worst... 

Lastly, for those who think PolyU is the best and forget about HKDI! come looks around, u will get some insight!

What the hell am I doing?

That is one question that we all afraid to ask ourselves, what am I doing?

It is because you don't want to know the answer.

But what is the most terrify is... when u don have an answer for yourself.

That isn't many thing special I have been though in my life so far... I didnot mean to do something really special for the rest of my life... But sometime I will really think... Shouldn't I? 

What am I doing? I am studying... one easy answer! study for what? For a living... Live for what? I stuck...

People asked what I wanna do... I tell them I do what I wanna do... when time change, people change, thought change, value change, then... behavior change!

It is killing me if I do something that I would never by. But it is exactly what I am doing... I am doing advertising, which I never believe in, it is evil that is all I know. I keep lying to myself and keep killing myself.

Humanitarian Lion seems give me some hope, creative mind can do good for the world. While I should know. Idea like that is not going to make a living...

So what am I ganna do? Right now, I will just try to do thing right. I believe there is some way for us to make thing right. Imagine how the world will be when we all do thing for others? The world will be as one.

Tonight I am typing in my bed with air-conditioner. But there are homeless who looking for a place to sleep. Not to mention any other bigger suffering in the war zone.

So where am I going? I don't know, all I know is I got to do something. 

Responsibilities

Let s just put anything else aside, responsibilities is all we need in order to create a great ads.

I believe a great ideas can come out from anyone's head.

It is all depends on whether u treat it as a mission, a job, a status of mind, or your belief.

Do ads with heart, ads would not be that evil!

No AIR, no talk

I have been thinking about our dream team these days.

I know the Creative Criminal was a great ideas. But when I think all the way back these day, that ideas would perhaps only be part of our journey, it can be the brunch, but never the core!

I must some time believe in our own intuitive instead of long well planning! Cause they are the grid, they are the limitation, then the obstacles.

No AIR, No talk. the brand new sentence come out from my mind intuitively today. I was thinking, It might work in a much easy way! to tell people, we need AIR! We need Fresh AIR! And don't kill the AIR! 

No AIR No talk, and No AIR talk! See what will happen next.

Collective Memory

I do very much concern about cultural issues.

Not because of the so called ''Collective Memory'', it is just because I want to keep some identity of the place I love.

I didn't know, and care what the hell collective memory is, I thought that is something far from me, and the only right for old man.

In the central library, there was an audio call at 30, 15 and 5 minutes before the library close. And the voice has recorded and printed in my mind deeply.

Haven't been there for quite a long time, I returned today and found out that...

That the voice has been changed, not anymore the familiar voices, but a stranger.

I miss the voice, because when I was a student, I studied there for whole day, and when the voice comes, just like telling me I had done a great job and it is time to start to rest and eat! I always feel good when I heard that... like really great...

At the study time in library, I spend that time with her, who is so important to me.

And I just miss that period.

Thing changes, just cannot help it... pity...

I guess, something should really need to keep... collective memory is not something just for old man... or I am already the old man...?

How the hell people goes......?

I was wonder how people keep up the spirit of working and climbing up every day.

I got to admit here I am tired after last big project has finish.

And I am tired to go for more, well... maybe a sudden sparkling idea might bring me back.

So please, I want to keep giving surprise and blowing you away.

I don't need a break, I need some insight, some little insight to bring me back to late night work.

BTW, I am really fuck up at my software technically, that really bother me from putting great ideas into execution. I got to work on that so so hard. Come on!

Turn around and walk away

Not only once, these happen in my life for quite a lot of time. Yes, I am saying that girls like to simply turn around and walk away from me. What a shame.

They are my lover, working partners, friends and even strangers. Strange, huh?

Mostly because of my attitude, my tone of speaking, or even my inmate looking face. I tried not to let this happen, but it happens again.

I am a person with grass root level EQ, which has upset me for years. I don't think I am a good leader and deserves to be one. However, looks like the God likes to play a particle joke with me.

Despite all that stupid characteristics about me, I would like to speak a few words to the lady who has 'slapped' on my face today.

You can turn around and walk away in front of me if you don't consider I am the leader and you didn't know what I have been through.

Take my word of it. Don't do that again on the days coming. Because you are dumping all your trust and reliance that you have gained!
