| You Are 30% Left Brained, 70% Right Brained |
| The left side of your brain controls verbal ability, attention to detail, and reasoning. Left brained people are good at communication and persuading others. If you're left brained, you are likely good at math and logic. Your left brain prefers dogs, reading, and quiet. The right side of your brain is all about creativity and flexibility. Daring and intuitive, right brained people see the world in their unique way. If you're right brained, you likely have a talent for creative writing and art. Your right brain prefers day dreaming, philosophy, and sports. |

Nice chat with the Lost Sheep Tsz
"The Hanged Man"... I will bear in mind. Dinner and movie at Jessica's
I don't like the American guy, and the French girl is no Botticelli angel; still I quite enjoyed the film. Will surely go to see "Before Sunset"
Vienna... I will be there
Got the vodafone bill - over 100 pounds for January???
What the hell???
2005年2月25日 上午12點40分00秒I am happy, because I can still write about...
I am happy, because I can still write about those days; recall that naive little girl with her self-conceit first stepping into the threshold of LHT; remember all the challenges to my limits in physical and mental strength; relish the laughs and tears that fostered life-long friendships; recount the processes by which I grew to be this person now called me.
I am unhappy, because I am not there when LHT is facing a great turning point; unable to deliver what I had gained those 3 years; unable to relieve the burden forced upon my Chairlady's shoulders; unable to be of practical service to LHT anymore. Instead I am here, half the globe away from LHT, absorbed in my own memories.
When nobody is willing to give it all anymore; when nobody talks about LHT in private talks and her OD anymore; when nobody wants to be under any expectation, themselves' or others', anymore; when people only want laughs and disregard tears, not aware of the fact that when you take away tears, the laughs will as well lose its immensity and value. When the SA is like this, what is to become of it?
2005年2月22日 上午11點17分00秒I am back to London from Amsterdam [IMAGE]...
I am back to London from Amsterdam Feel like I have spent ages there, so weird now to see no more incomprehensible Dutch signs in public places 
At least now we know what ingang, uitgang, huis, plein, 4 halen 3 betalen... etc mean
But I lost my Esprit towel, Muji face towel and slippers in the hostel, plus the memory card before setting off 
... anyway the gain is greater than the lost
1st Day - A single Chinese girl roaming the Amsterdam streets
Jessica and Jackson went to Utrecht, so I was charged with the duty of checking in the hostel, and given leave to walk around this city I once visited 2 years ago.
Stayokay hostel - Jackson gave me the wrong address so that I walked all the way with my backpack from Central Station to Rijksmuseum to know we booked the other hostel which was half way back
We had 3 beds in a dormitory, felt like back to those days when I used to go camping with girl guides Rembrandthuis - The house of Rembrandt refurnished, his etching and painting workshops
The famous self-portrait etching is only about 2 square inches large 
The black and white tiles, Dutch boxbeds are so cute Anne Frank Huis - Walked from Rembrandthuis across the Dam Square to the house of the famous Anne Frank, 14 year-old Jewish girl who kept her diaries during WW2 German occupation. Shocked to find a long queue outside, did not attempt going in finally. It was even more popular then the other museums and galleries in Amsterdam
Red Light District - The famous Amsterdam erotica, "red light" perhaps relating to the red light bar above the prostitutes' windows. Surrounding the Oude Kirk (Old Church) were these little boxrooms fitted with glass doors lined with curtains and a red light bar above, which made a really spectacular sight (the godly and the profane coexist side-by-side in such harmonious state)
Shocked by the old and fat dames at first, then found some much better Natalie Portman in "Closer" type 
The behaviours of the (male) customers were an interesting thing to note as well 2nd Day - Across the boundaries, a super-condensed tour of Holland
This was a day of extreme exhaustion... we were in 4 cities in one day. Even the travel agencies cannot organize such a packed schedule
When we set off, it was snowing!!! My jacket was covered with a thin layer of white feathers as we treaded toward the Central Station
Dan Haag (The Hague) - A brief look at the Parliament Buildings, then the Mauritshuis to see my Vermeer's "Girl with a Pearl Earring"
Finally I got to see the real thing, not the distorted printed versions... Rotterdam - Erasmus' Rotterdam? Postmodern Rotterdam more like... All the experimental buildings created a postmodern virtual space
Fantasies made real. Delft - Vermeer's Delft
Oh what a lovely little town! I wish I had more time for it... looked like the serenity Vermeer represented in his View of Delft had stayed crystalized throughout these centuries.We could only look at the Oude Kirk where Vermeer was buried from the outside because it was closed already, and walked up to the square before the Neuwe Kirk before we had to catch the train again. Amsterdam - Back to discover the cleaner of the hostel took away all our stuff
The staff was not being helpful at all, left a blemish in the journey 3rd Day - Goodbye Holland
Zaanse Schans - The symbol of Holland. Despite the windmills, there were even cheese and wooden shoe workshops
Rijksmuseum - The world famous Rijkmuseum was under renovation, the masterpieces were moved to another wing. When I first saw Rembrandt 2 years ago I could not really appreciate his style. Now that I know more about Dutch Art of the Golden Age through my MA and my essay on painting last semester, I can recognize his genius
The best quality print cannot reproduce the stunning effect of the real paintings. And of course there was Vermeer as well The Dutch Blue Porcelains faking the Chinese Ming Porcelains were so hideously fake that Jessica and I could not stop laughing in the exhibition room Anne Frank Huis - Finally got to see the annex. The Frank family hid in a secret annex which entrance was hidden behind a bookcase
It was very sad as we walked into the annex, reading the persecuted Jews' testimonial of their suffering in WW2 and feeling the horror of Auschwitz... Especially when we finally came to a thick catalogue of about 103,000 Jews in Holland who died during WW2 
I guess I must get an English copy of Anne Frank's Diary... London was snowing when we arrived. Back to hall before mid-night. Extremely tired but fulfilled.
