Sports highlight: Daytona 500

Haven't really watched much sports on TV after we cancelled cable. Fortunately, the biggest NASCAR race is on FOX, which I could barely receive over the air with my cheapo antenna. This was the first time I watch NASCAR with my son. Seems like he's getting it. Wish Danica would have done better but she did lead a lap and finished higher than any other women in history (No. 8) Better than Jeff Gordon, Tony Stewart, Carl Edwards and Denny Hamlin! Too bad Toyota had a bad day: engine and drive train problems left Kyle Busch and Matt Kenseth out of the race. Toyota made a really bad impression to one future car buyer, my son.

十年


上週女兒十歲生日,才驚覺自己已為人父十年。自問本身性格陽光氣息不重,唯有讓子女早點接觸人性的負面。雖則如此,我相信這十年女兒總曾從我那裡得到一點有用的教誨,我問她有甚麼她特別記得,她告訴我:1)要放鬆,2)要有儀態,3)要嘗試做到最好;看來我的教導也不錯!總結十年,我跟她說:Be open minded and listen to others. However, don't listen blindly. For example, if people tell you something is difficult, still try to find out on your own and think independently. That's how you could tell right from wrong.
