Whoa, what shall I say. Since China blocked this website, i've abandoned this for like HUNDRED YEARS. I am in Singapore for a dance exchange and live in my uncle's home. That's why I can take a look if my journals are still here. Voila, it's still here perfectly. Pity I don't have enough time to read, but I just wanna everyone on my friends' list know that I am still alive and well and married. =) Some of my friends are my facebook buddy now. So if you wanna find me more infomation, go to facebook and add mahmahlulu and remind me of who are you. I probably don't remember any of you but i will try. =)
Peace!

After having lived in Beijing for exactly two months, finally I headed back to Shanghai four days ago.I think i really love my city more than any others.It's more like a city to me and more people and more high buildngs. Maybe some people don't really appreciate this kinda styles even some people will think it's very fake as if you lived in a limited land. But to me, it's my home and the feeling will never change.
My parents are of course very happy to see me. When I arrived home, mom already bought a lot fruits and snacks for me. New towls and tooth brush were waiting for me and everything doesnt change. After all, it's only two months, it's not that long but I still couldn't help being happy, because this was really my first time to have left my closest family and friends far away.
The first day when I arrived, my hair dresser was asking if i would go to make my hair and of course i couldnt help to do it as I looked really like a country girl i guess. lol And then the next day I met my two friends who are now police officers and we had hot pot together. Then one of my auntie bought new flat just behind my home, so me and mom visited their family and everyone said that I smelt like a lamb. Btw, auntie is having a baby now and this new baby will come to the world next month. I wish i was having a baby instead of her! Yesterday met grandpa and accompanied him to the Beijing Opera community in his neibourhood and my ear was 'suffering' Beijing Opera for four hours from 1pm to 5pm. I guess I really love my granpa and I really hate Beijing Opera. I dont know why I even agreed that I would go with him to listen to him and his really OLD friends' singing.
This afternoon 1pm,met my bitch Ruby at Pegsus and as usual she's late for 15 min. Then we headed to Mcdonald and chatting there for about two hours. Then now I'm at Ben's apartment using his computer. I asked mom to stop adsl service in my home because I am not at home all the time, so she neednt pay 130rmb/month. Therefore these days I need to check my email in Ben's apartment. And in more than a week, I will go to Shangdong with Ben and his sister to spend Chinese New Year there. Having been told that Nothern people celebrate Chinese New Year differently than souther people here. Therefore I'm looking forward to it. The only thing i concern about is that im going to miss my mom's 50th. b-day on the sixth of Chinese New Year. I'm a bad bad girl! If only someone would give me good suggestion of how to make up for it.
I wish i can online more...

My name is Ye Lu, a 23-year-old Chinese girl from Shanghai. Friends call me Lu or Lulu. And I have no siblings. I don’t know if other countries in the world are the same as China. But I did was told that China is an exceptional case for birth rate control. And my generation is the first one to be executed.
I don’t like this policy personally, but on the other hand, I support it. When I was a little girl at the preschool age. My parents had to work. Therefore, I was locked in the room to play with myself. The room felt as if it’s a jail and how I wish that someone would talk and play games with me, even fighting was better than staying alone. I have been always craving for a big brother whom I could consult with about boy issue or a sister whom I could share my secrets with and laugh over silly things together or a little brother whom I could easily ‘bully’. Old generation said that they spoil us all. So many bad features belong to us: selfishness, laziness, heartlessness etc. We are entitled to be little emperors and princesses. They have to change the way to treat their kids. However, it is easy to say than do. Chinese parents nowadays don’t have other choices but can’t help spoiling us because we are the only kid in each family. On the surface, it sounds good to us. We take this advantage to do whatever we want to do. Nevertheless, we are actually under the great pressure. As the center of our families, our parents want to know everything about our personal or impersonal life. Their over care is like a burden to us because my generation has already grown up and we don’t want to be kept under the roof and protected all the time. In a bad way to say, we are annoyed! But on our parents’ sides, they also have their own confessions, my mom once told me that she felt very regretful that she didn’t give another birth, she also feel very lonely if I am not at home to be her company. And some day she knows that I will leave then she will miss me to death. If she had another kid, at least she would get distraction from missing me. When I heard this, I felt very sorry and sad for my mom. I wish things would’ve been better for her. However I feel helpless.
The reason why I support it because China owns such a big population and the birth control seems the only way to solve this issue. The boosting population caused a lot of problems such as food shortage, workforce excess, keen competition amongst the students and so on. If China didn’t execute this policy I couldn’t imagine the result in the future. From this point of view, I am in favor of it. As time goes by, the changing of birth control is unavoidable. The latest news I’ve heard about it is that if the couple both of them is the only child, then they are allowed to have two babies without paying extra money in the future. That is definitely good news!
I hope some day Chinese kids will be no longer lonely in their family. They can happily enjoy the company of their siblings as the same as the kids in other countries. And I know that day will become true.

One of the guys in my office who keeps smoking one by one everyday which really bothers me.I wonder how can his wife and daughter bare his stinky mouth? I really can't imagine. What if his little daughter was kissed by him? I think she might be faint after that.lol And also i've found that so many chinese men like his age (around mid 30th till 40th)have bad smell,do they ever notice it? Their wives should take them to the dentisty's or they shoudnt't make love with them. LOL Why they still can find someone live with them? Ewwwww... i think i'd better stop, it's so gross!
Christine bought a lot Jasmine teabags for office staff to drink. I think it's quite nice and i do drink one teabag everyday.Hope it will help me to lose weight.
Oh yeah... i wrote something today. hehehehhehehe!

| Red-Orange |

So today I am wearing a red-orange outfit. According to the article,"Dressing or decorating with red-orange can help increase your self-respect. Using red-orange, a focused red infused with the earth's warmest colour orange, will inspire you to use your newfound improved self-respect to honor your individuality. It will encourage you to accept youself and also to appreciate those you love." Okay, that's about this colour.I don't know if it's true or not, coz i don't feel that i gain more self-respect, i just felt a little bit shy when i walked on the street this morning coz this colour is very bright and it's the business suit style. But I do find that recently, i like bright colour a lot. When i use the mark pen, i also chose orange first.So even I didn't realize, i guess i've got enough self-respect unconsiousl already.lol Who else wearing this colour today? hehe

I read an article which is related to spectrum two days ago, and it said Dressing or decorating with black will boost your ability to be focused. Using black, the absence of light, creates the mysterious aura of the unknown. In the darkness, your thoughts turn inward and you are better able to focus on your emotions and true feelings. You'll be able to recognize what and who is the most important. Therefore, i'm trying to analyze this paragraph for myself. Today i'm wearing in all black. I do look very businesswoman now with black shirt and pant which are all new i bought this week plus my old pair of black shoes. I feel comfortable with my dressing today coz I feel that i get focused. lol And also when I start work, I always focuse on what I have to do. When I see myself dressing in black, i feel that i have big responsibility to work well coz I now look very business in the company and i can't do anything wrong but professionally.Then speaking of 'creating the mysterious aura of the unknown', I'm not sure coz i've been told i'm a very straight girl, i say what i think. But since i'm Scorpio, I guess i still have my mysterious side and actually now since i start working, i am trying to be more mysterious. Walls have ears!!! Especially when you work in the company. So i can't be as straight as I am before.Then the above paragraph said that 'in the darkness, my thoughts turn inward and i'm better able to focus on my emotions and true feelings.' Well, to be honest, i don't really understand what does 'my thoughts turn inward' mean (anyone could explain?But anyways, for the sake of myself, i'm always 'focused on my emotions and true feelings.'And sometimes I was too emotional which i need to improve myself!
Okay, the reason why i pick this topic is this is the only topic i can write something now, and it's for fun and taking rest from work. I will continue to write about colours of how your wear in other days i think.

[03 Mar 2004|11:01am] |
Hellooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!! I'm here now,what for? I guess i'm here to update something tho i don't know how to start AGAIN.What to write? Actually i did have a lot a lot of things to write, but mostly i'd rather keep it personally, so it turns out a bit difficult to choose a story to public here.So i will write about common things first.
Weather sucks today! Very windy and cold while last week, most of days were HOT.And everytime when my boss fly to Shanghai to check, the weather is like this.And today my boss is coming and will fly back to HK on Sun.
I slept pretty 'early'(2am) yesterday,however,i didn't mean to honestly, but since i gotta find some clothing which is formally,i had been putting on/off clothing like psycho for few hours.I hate formal clothing as the matter of fact.But few weeks ago on a Sat.morning,as I partied too much on Friday, and in my company,we have to work every Sat. morning.Therefore i chose not to sleep on Friday and i changed sporty clothing when i went to work. Unfortunatelly, we happened to have a sudden meeting with two customers and i was supposed to attend, but due to my clothing code,i didn't go, and then Henri reported to my boss as "I did not include Lu in the meeting as I did not feel she was dressed in a manner that was appropriate for a business meeting."Therefore my boss David wrote me email and asked me to wear properly everytime. LOL I HATE THESE FORMAL CLOTHING SO MUCH. I LOOK OLD AND LIKE A COUNTRY GIRL!But i guess its because i don't have good qulity ones... so as long as i get money, i will shop around to choose some really good or really brandy suits.
I am too busy now... i'd like to write more later...

I was reading some English news the other days and I found that some western ppl like to use Dick as their given name,maybe it's not 'like' or 'not like' coz their parents gave their this name, but every ppl know the meaning of Dick right? So why their parents still use this name? I can't get thru. And i think im weird that i have this mind. LOL I still rememberd that once i was in high school, there was this English text about a boy whose name is Dick and at the time, i didn't know the meaning and i just found strange that everytime when we read the text, these boys always emphasize Dick this word whenever we met this word in the text, then i looked up the dictionary and found out the meaning, that's why i get very sensitive everytime i read this word. So here came up my confusion.

OMG,it's snowing yesterday in SH. That's amazing! Yesterday was the third time i've experienced snow in my whole life so far. The last time i remember was when i studied in Junior and the first time when i was in elementary school. Therefore, it hadn't snowed for a really really long time in SH. I felt so excited, however, it's also fucking cold yesterday. My nose and ears were freezing.
That's all! I am not as creative as before when i'm writing my LJ!
