Meet Up 義工團探訪老友記第一擊之元洲邨

第一次Meet Up。第一次探訪老人家。第一次見識老人公屋單位。第一次feel到互動的窩心。

雙下巴係我朋友圈內義工的始祖，所有Meet Up呀Hands On 呀都係佢介紹我嘅。上兩個禮拜突然心血來潮上Meet Up睇，見到有探訪老人活動就好似呼喚著我般不能抗拒邀請，膽粗粗就RSVP咗。跟住雙下巴又二話不説又同我去。

到Meet Up當日，一班唔識嘅人全無記認係相約地點集合。企係度周圍望好似等緊人嗰啲就係團友嘞。一齊行去老人中心聽社工briefing。Basic的不能網上公開與受訪者相片呀，唔好話"我下次再來找你"呀，有咩要注意等等。之後兩個人一組，安排探訪地址，攞有心人士贊助的月餅生果就出發。

第一站係探一對年老父女。去到時只得老伯喺屋企。佢個女去咗執紙皮。伯伯話佢個女日日都出去，自力更生好勤力！老伯好開朗，好叻仔！最記得佢話呢度d街坊好幫忙，又會日日約飲茶一人請一日。每日一早都會三五成群落樓下樹下乘涼。又話電話騙䅁呃唔到佢。

第二站嘅"婆婆"簡直係上天派來同反做我個義工嘅天使！姐姐睇落似五十幾歳，原來有七十。日日行四五個鐘頭山，好多活動又有班啱key朋友。比巴黎珍更巴黎珍，樂天過樂天熊仔餅！佢以前喺一間學旁邊賣咗廿年豬腸粉，睇住好多學生哥長大。又話以前嘅香港人很包容，小販都有生存空間。只要肯做就可以為生。仲叫我地要善待人，多d包容開心面對所以嘢。總之佢完全開解咗我！我地走嗰陣不停多謝姐姐，佢由頭至尾都超好笑容。總之好high!

最後一站係一個老婆婆，佢係三個之中最灰嘅。行動不太方便，嚟開門時都幾吃力。言談間一心唔想麻煩人，一個人住一切從簡。牆上有好多年輕時嘅靚相，的確好靚。原來婆婆以前係磨Del！有好多嘢唔記得但係好記得想當年喺彌敦道一間叫紅棉嘅影樓做生招牌。

探訪完後take比give更多！要互助包容同埋記住令自己一世都開心嘅事。

這個冬天Dry都爆2之：超好用DIY 面霜

朋友建議我用雪花秀，話超潤用咗皮膚好靚！正當我準備跌落$深淵嘅時候，我個facial姐姐話佢係好work，不過含鉛量好高，唔可以長期使用。有好多護膚品都好多chemicals，塊面積聚越多會越來越差。話晒我都係個崇尚天然嘅人，聽完之後對雪花秀有啲保留。Facial姐姐仲叫我睇多啲美容資訊，唔好聽人話咩嘢好用就攞自己塊面嚟試。跟手就開始介紹佢賣緊個條organic skin care line... 下刪三百字。我一被人sell就乜都聽唔入耳，好快就離開現場喇。

Facial姐姐都唔係無道理，事因實在頂唔順自己塊面越來越多細紋，呢幾日不停research有咩護膚品又natural又好用。發現原來好多人都DIY！自己整skin care可以好肯定所有ingredients 都係天然嘢，無化學品。用咗好多時間上網學整face cream同埋eye cream，又睇咗好多essential oils同唔同base oils嘅功效同用法，越睇越high！又問過一個學過香薰治療嘅朋友意見，決定自己試吓整！

我照 A Blossoming Life  嘅做法，搵齊材料就即刻返屋企整呢隻"miracle" night cream 啦！

• 1/2 tsp beeswax
• 1 tsp coconut oil
• 2 tbs almond oil
• 1/2 tsp of shea butter (or you can just use more coconut oil)
• 1 tsp vitamin e oil
• 1/4 cup aloe vera gel
• 1 tsp honey (Try to get some local honey if possible)
• 5-10 drops lemon essential oil
• 1/2 tsp bentonite clay

全部材料都係對皮膚好好架！抗氧化抗衰老滋潤去皺！總之就堅啦！

照A Blossoming Life 嘅做法，將頭四樣材料煮溶溝埋，再放埋一邊等佢凍返去好似潤唇膏咁嘅texture。

喺另一隻碗將第五至第八樣材料混和。

將兩兜嘢mix埋再加最後嘅bentonite clay等佢杰身啲。呢個過程切忌用金屬碗金屬匙！

佢係夜霜嘅原因係有lemon essential oil。用咗檸檬精華油就唔可以曬。所以如果要整day cream就唔好落檸檬精華就ok喇！睇咗七七四十九個youtube DIY片之後嘅總結係可以加少少用開嘅sunscreen做日霜嘅。

用後感：用少少就好夠！初初搽上面覺得太油，但係好快就吸晒！夜晚瞓覺前用絕對ok！而且好香，會keep注用！

這個冬天Dry到爆1

大概是到了青春不再唔補好易老的年紀，今個冬天好似特別乾。面上嘅細紋好清楚地話我知一直以來嘅護膚routine已經唔work!

同美容達人朋友求救，佢即時介紹咗呢隻超平eye patch比我！一合有成60片，都只係$138！日日用都可以用成個月，每日都係$4.6！而家用咗幾日，無話特別正，但係心理上肯定好過咗！有敷好過無敷嘅定律咁囉！等我用咗一個月再比個包膠大家啦！

Flower Power- a guide to office survival

So... a few days ago, I told my colleagues that we should totally do a theme for Friday casual wear day. Let's all wear floral prints! Something Hawaiian! Yeahhhh! Totally!!!

They were like... for what? That's really moliu lor.

Fine.

So today, I came into work in my very 80s jeans short jacket, complimenting my tight black long top showing off my curves. Non-floral. As soon as I walked in, I saw people in Hawaiian dresses, floral tops, floral lace knits... you get the idea. Those floral ladies came up to me and looked from head to toe trying to spot my floral print. PISSED. Walked off and saying loudly how I didn't go with the dress code while I told them to.

Oops. Sorry! (千頌伊 tone)

Constant bitching all morning from varies women actually got me feeling a little bit guilty. So during lunch before I rush for my Body Pump class, I went to Zara and grabbed a floral blouse, pumped & showered, then put on my new top. Then I thought I needed to go an extra mile to avoid pissing of women from the office. So I rushed to LKF to the staircase up to Levelz, where there's a florist there during day light (this is new for some of you clubbers I know). Counted and bought each and everyone of them a flower. Then rushed back to the office. Very productive lunch break!

At the sight of the flowers, those angry women were suddenly tamed! Go flower power!

Conclusion
Number 1: never pissed any woman off in the office.
Number 2: when in doubt, send flowers.
Number 3: if i'm a man, I'd be a ladies' man. LOL

Happy Friday everyone!

Dance Love Pray

Happy Anniversary MoDac! 

感動。驕傲。

從前有一位舞蹈老師，年輕，有夢想，活力，重點係好靚仔！曾經迷上他，很崇拜。之後知道他開設自己的舞蹈學校，成為名人的排舞師。到近來紅爆的＜狂舞派＞，知道他成功了，但感覺不大。今天友人send了他參加＜中國好舞蹈＞的clip給我看。OMG!!差點忘了當年為什麼那樣迷！除了感動和驕傲，再沒其他了。

He reminded me once again how he melted my heart every time I watched him dance in his classes. Very proud of you Shing!

Project Juicing

DIY juice detox! The Juices are so good I wanna juice it once a week!

Almond milk with banana
Green punch: celery, cucumber, pear, spinach
Red punch: beet, carrot, apple, ginger
Orange juice
Coconut water

It is a lot of chopping and cleaning to make your own juice. Good thing is that you know exactly what's in it, and it's much cheaper than ordering online.

Seafood Pan Roast

因為懷念，所以自製。懷念以前Reno Alantis Casino Sky Bar 的 pan roast. 除此之外Reno並沒什麼好懷念的。多謝表弟提供食譜，我們從此以後再沒有回Reno的需要了！個味有九成似！好好好好味呀～～～ 勁多牛油勁多cream! 好邪惡呀！
