Individually, we are one drop. Together, we are an ocean!

Eat My Balls has recruited a bunch of new players this season! Spliting into 2 teams, and a team building event was held a couple weeks ago. We managed to hit all the planned games, with some OOC spontaneous games in between.

First game was the ice-breaking name game. Now we all know each other's name with and adjective that starts with the Same letter of each person's name. I'm Ma-Farn Michelle or Joyful Jenna (schizo) ;-)



2nd game was called Untangle. Held each other's hand randomly and we need to untangle to a big circle without letting go. Takes a great deal of problem solving and teamwork :)




... and we're off to spagettis and marchmallows! 4 teams competiting to build the tallest structure ! Team 2B built an Eiffel Tower!! Ho ging! Followed by an OOC marchmallow fight...


... and came to my favorite game! Pictionary!! 2 teams battle with time, and the loser will get his/her face painted! I love face painting!! See my Superman & Kiss victims XD




Dresscode? Little Miss tees!


... fun day with my dear teammates! I can already tell that we'll have yet another great dodgeball season :D

The EMB Rainbow

We love dress codes! Yes, we do it for regular team practice too. We do play better when we are in a dress code as team spirit boost :D



Circle the one that clearly doesn't belong! XD

一世的承諾

住大澳嘅公公婆婆, 喺背山西面海嘅番鬼塘村定居幾十年。兩個人一手一腳起屋, 種果樹, 種菜, 到海灘打蠔, 自製果醬... 公公婆婆一直都係用原始嘅煮食方式-- 燒柴煮飯。他們過著都市人不能體會嘅簡單生活。生咗一竇仔女, 仔女又生咗一竇孫比兩老。幾個孫兒小時侯放暑假都會返番鬼塘村度假。天氣熱, 公公和孫兒在天台吹著海風睡。睡醒一起到海邊捉蟹仔。

孫兒都長大了。公公婆婆兩個人一直住喺番鬼塘村。年紀大了,公公襯還有氣有力時, 和婆婆上山擘了一輩子也夠用的柴。好多好多! 堆砌得高高的, 整整齊齊的放滿前園空地。幾年前公公先走了。婆婆每天煮飯, 也用公公早為她準備的柴。剩下的柴, 真的一輩子也夠用。這就是公公對婆婆要照顧她一世的承諾吧。比 "P.S. I Love You" 入面嘅情節更體貼窩心!

* * * * *

前幾日舅父打電話嚟, 話柴枝發現白蟻, 要通通燒燬。雖然婆婆而家已經唔需要燒柴煮飯, 但係大家都好唔捨得! 怕無堆積如山嘅柴枝, 前園會變得空蕩。

Kowloon City- Dining

I love Kowloon City! Walk there and eat 'til you're sleepy then go for a foot massage! Today I did just that!

Representing Fong Wing Kee's satay beef noodle. Nice way to start my Saturday! They are famous for hot pot dinner, but lunch is just as nice, with a much better deal!


Then walked around the corner for Taiwanese style Milk Tea (2 shops across from Kowloon City Plaza).

Then another block down to Patisserie Tony Wong for cakes! I love the Chocolate Truffle & Mango Napoleon! Yummy!!


Then walked across the street to check out some wine and Parma Ham. Didn't buy anything there though. The sales was a bit pushy. Just always thought this shop looks very nice and trendy :)


Then walked down a few blocks for some very effective Turtle Jello at Chan Jai. I come here for Turtle Jello whenever I'm all party'ed out, lose my voice, tired, "bone fire", hot air... etc. It works everytime! Ingidience very GEEN! At only $28 per bowl, it's much cheaper than big brands Turtle Jello out there. We walked there today, but they're closed for 2 days!! Arrghh! Will come back tomorrow.

Then walked to Junction Road for foot massage. There I napped for about an hour! What a lovely day :)

Other restuarants recommendations:
Islam Food 清真牛肉館- excellent juicy beef cake!
Lung Jie Thai Restaurant 隆姐泰國美食館- great thai food!

Yoichi Japanese Noodle 洋一居食屋- never tried their noodles but their 和風燒餅 are very good!
Copacabana 小店 - dishes are a bit UK style. I really like their Chocolate lava cake!
韓一石頭鍋

Shun Hing Restaurant 順興茶餐廳
- Hongkie style Cha Charn Tan! I go there for bake pork chop over rice/spagetti all the time! Classic!!

That's it for now... can't type anymore, i'm gettin really hungry just by thinking of them...

Cheers!
- A very proud Kowloon City Citizen :)
