Don't Laugh at Me

Watch this meaningful video - Don't Laugh at Me



I'm a little boy with glasses
The one they call the geek
A little girl who never smiles
'Cause I've got braces on my teeth
And I know how it feels
To cry myself to sleep

I'm that kid on every playground
Who's always chosen last
A single teenage mother
Tryin' to overcome my past
You don't have to be my friend
But is it too much to ask

Don't laugh at me
Don't call me names
Don't get your pleasure from my pain
In God's eyes we're all the same
Someday we'll all have perfect wings
Don't laugh at me

I'm the cripple on the corner
You've passed me on the street
And I wouldn't be out here beggin'
If I had enough to eat
And don't think I don't notice
That our eyes never meet

I lost my wife and little boy when
Someone cross that yellow line
The day we laid them in the ground
Is the day I lost my mind
And right now I'm down to holdin'
This little cardboard sign...so

Don't laugh at me
Don't call me names
Don't get your pleasure from my pain
In God's eyes we're all the same
Someday we'll all have perfect wings
Don't laugh at me

I'm fat, I'm thin, I'm short, I'm tall
I'm deaf, I'm blind, hey, aren't we all

Don't laugh at me
Don't call me names
Don't get your pleasure from my pain
In God's eyes we're all the same
Someday we'll all have perfect wings
Don't laugh at me



Everyone is unique in their own ways.

Look at their positive attributes instead of their flaws. Aren't all of us flawed in one way or another as well?


Think twice before you said or do any mean things to others. I believe you wouldn't want others to do that to you too.



#Treat others the way you want them to treat you! =)

How will you Colour your Life?

"Life is the art of drawing without an eraser." ~ John W. Gardner ~



Very true.


Whatever we have done before, it can never be erased off. Be it good or bad events, we are bound to leave traces of it at the least expected places.

It can be changed for the better by adding more colours to it, by doing it differently, by changing your perspective and the list goes on ...

How your life turns out all depends on how you live it.


Fill it with lots of smiles and colours now!

Learn from the bad events and Replace them with happy memories~

Macau + Hong Kong Trip part 7

Woke up earlier today in order to enjoy Dim Sum at Xiao Fei Yang~

Xiao Fei Yang
Continued to shop at Mongkok Centre. Haha, this is the best place for shopping.

Have been considering to buy this glass piano, but, am holding back as the song that is being played is not what I want. Thus, did not buy it in the end.


Got myself a maple leaf with Canon in D. =)

Canon in D

Intended to go to the Happy Balley Racecourse and Lan Kwai Fong, but we weren't left with much money and our energy were kind of depleting slowly, so decided to give it a miss.

After some lazing around, we went back to Mongkok Centre to do our last shopping. We wanted to spend all that we have left, and just leaving the minimal for tomorrow.

Aren't we glad that this will be the last time that we need to shower in the tiny bathroom and sleep on the tiny bed? haha


Our last breakfast in Hong Kong - we decided to have the best porridge at Hai Jing Zhou Dian! (you might have realized that we have been patronizing this place very often, do I need to mention that their food is superb again? ^.^ )


Hai Jing Zhou Dian
The heavy backpacks we need to carry:

backpacks
A test of our strength and will. LOL

Took First Ferry back to Macau Ferry Terminal.

Intended to go to Senado Square to buy some Portuguese Tarts, but, our bags were too heavy for us to walk around and the bus doesn't seem to be able to accommodate us. Sadly, we have to gave up on this thought and hang around at the airport instead.


Some interesting drinks we had while waiting~

Macau Drinks at Aiport
Trip afterthoughts:

For my past trips, the level of comfort of accommodation has never been on my priorities. But, from this trip, I realised it could badly affect my energy. As the saying always goes, 休息是为了走更远的路. True enough, I should look for better accommodation for my next trip.

Macau + Hong Kong Trip part 6

We woke up late yet again..haha

Had breakfast at Good Hope Cafe, saw the recommendation on travel guides. The soup base is good, but that's about it.

Good Hope Cafe
Intended to visit the Ng Tung Choi Waterfall & Botanic Garden, but apparently, we didn't get the right address. Luckily it wasn't a waste trip as Yuen Lang is the next stop.

Yuen Lang seems to be one of the better branch of Heng Xiang Shop, famous for their Lao Po Bing.

I suppose it's worth the 1 hour journey to Yuen Lang. =)

For the past few days, we have been eating quite a big portion for breakfast, so a bowl of noodle was obviously not enough.

Decided to eat the desserts!

The famous Xu Liu Shan Dessert Store. It has many branches all over Hong Kong.

Xu Liu Shan Mango
I can only say it's so Mango-licious!! ^.^

Xu Liu Shan Mango
They should reopen their outlet in Singapore~

Continued our shopping at Mongkok Centre. There are just so many shops here that you won't get bored shopping here several times.

Tried the Cold Noodle as well. You can see many youngster holding onto one while shopping.

Cold Noodle
It was real good and appetizing! I finished my pack with a few mouthful. haha

I have to say the noodle make us more hungry so we walked to Temple Street for our early dinner at Mido Cafe.

It is those olden and traditional Hong Kong style Cha Chan Ting that you can see often in Hong Kong Dramas.

Mido Cafe
But, the prices of the food are quite expensive though.


Since we are at Temple Street, we have to do some shopping as well. Lol

It was a small stretch of stores, similar to our Pasar Malem. We got a few good buys, one of it is the Doraemon stuff toy where you can record your voice for just HKD30! =)

Continued to shop at Fai Yuen Night Market.

Tried to snacks but it wasn't to our liking. One was too spicy and the other was over chewy. LOL

Hong Kong Snacks
That's all for today.

Macau + Hong Kong Trip part 5

Woke up late again..but we wanted to try the breakfast at Cafe De Coral~

Cafe De Coral
I need bigger portion! One is suppose to eat breakfast like the king! Thumbs up for the scrambled egg with Hokkaido cheese~ =)


Today, we will be going to Hong Kong Island.

the infamous building~

Hong Kong CBD
First visit - Hong Kong Park

This is not your usual nature park as most of the things you see are in fact man made.

Hong Kong Park

Their slogan : Making the Familiar Unfamiliar!

The ride is only cost HKD2~

We rode on the tram till it reach the last stop at the Western Market and walked towards H & M.
Having nothing to shop for, we decided to go up to the Peak earlier.

Got on a bus from IFC area and off we go with our roller coaster ride. The view was amazing from the upper deck~

Heard that the McDonald at the Peak serve nicer food, so here we are. haha

Peak McDonald
Ordered the Mega Ebi Burger!

Mega Ebi Burger

I guess it's the surrounding that seems to make the dinning so much better up here.

Peak GalleriaAt the Peak Galleria, it used to be FOC when I last visited. However, its entrance fee is now HKD20.

Peak GalleriaBeing at the top makes it much more colder as it is VERY windy! But we wanted to wait for the lights to be up, so we just had to move ourselves to keep us warm. Really freezing cold!

Most likely due to the constant blowing of cold wind, we weren't feeling that well when we took the bus back to Central.

It sort of used up all our energy. Hence, we decided to retreat early with a hot soya bean.
