幾年前就看過這個Flash短片，但是不知道為甚麼這兩個禮拜突然又想起了它，而且stuck在頭裡揮之不去，很煩。可能是因為我們的小軒軒（Nancy）的生日讓我想到了任賢齊的小萱萱吧。

Spring BBQ

Jiaying — Sat, 18 Apr 2009 03:37:24 +0000

It is still a bit chilly but Spring is definitely here, how do I know? Well, people around me are all watery-eyed, sneezing and nose running, symptoms of spring…

16 of us went out to the Joseph D. Grant park last weekend for some healthy group activity, which involved BBQ and plenty of volleyball. Victor finally sent me the photos from the event, so here they are!

We all had a good time, and this weekend we are going hiking. Well, I will have to see if I can go or not, since my skin rash (possibility due to encountering poison oak during last weekend’s BBQ) is still flaring up. Hope I can go…

It’s All Down Hills Now…

Jiaying — Tue, 07 Apr 2009 08:08:04 +0000

Yup, it was my birthday yesterday 4/5, 32nd to be exact. I had asked Vivian, Nancy and the rest of my closest friends to skip any celebration they had in mind for me. After 31 birthdays, I just don’t see why birthdays are anything worthy of a celebration, it has slowly become a day to be dread about instead.

Nah, I am half joking, no one likes to see wrinkles creep up on their face, but getting old is not entirely bad. The experience and wisdom (humm… I hope I am gaining wisdom) only comes with age, and personal and professional advancement require time as well. I am definitely enjoying the ride so far, looking forward to every new day.

It is very touching to see all the birthday greetings I received from friends today, I feel lucky and blessed. Thank you guys for thinking of me and taking the time to wish me a happy birthday, that’s the best part of any birthday…

Here are few of birthday greetings I got on facebook, love it!

Lavenders!

Jiaying — Mon, 18 Jun 2007 21:24:00 +0000

We had a fun day in the burning sun yesterday, picking out lavenders and spending way too much money on lavender-filled pillows and slippers.

It was our 2nd time attending the Sonoma Lavender Festival, had to go there since Lavender happens to be Vivian’s favorite flower, one of her favorite flower I should say. I do agree, the gentle smell of the lavender is soothing, and acres and acres of light purple lavender is indeed quite a sight.

Kite Flying

Jiaying — Thu, 29 Jun 2006 05:42:00 +0000

Last time we did this together was almost exactly three years ago. Back then, Jack was still here, I haven’t moved to Shanghai, and Andy hungout with us regularly.

Time passed, people aged, but nonetheless, the feeling of childhood joy of kite flying in a lazy spring Sunday afternoon remains the same.

Despite knowing the pain and how long it will take us to wind the kite back, we still let loose the mile long string and the kite soared straight in to the heaven.

And of course, as predicted, we moaned and groaned for 40 minutes to retrieve the kite down…

Our usual crew of friends stopped by our place last night unexpectly. Knowing that I didn’t want to celebrate my BDay this year, they kept it low key. No birthday songs and no candles on the cake. I did receives nice thoughtful gifts, tasty Blackforest cake and warm hugs.

Just what I needed! Thanx guys!
