Did not have enough sleep two nights in a row, I was so tired and had to have some afternoon nap today. It's so rare from my habit but I chose to take care of myself as I wasn't really that busy today at home.

Mr.S's gone to Singapore for his business trip and will be back on Wed. However, even if he were here, I would have came home to do my homework anyways.

The Friday night's gathering with Nicole, Sherry and Shirley was great. I really like to be around these great friends. Marcus, Nicole's baby boy, who is now 1.5 years old is quite cute. He is a naughty little thing that would come up with funny idea to play with others. Seems like everyone is having a good life now at their new working environment. It's funny how the four of us once worked together but now all over the place. The more I grow up, the more I treasure the friendship that I have. We had dinner in a great and nice Thai restarant just next to Nicole's home. We chatted until 10 something that night. Hence, by the time I was home, it's already past mid-night.Then the next day I had to work and had to wake up at 6:00. No wonder I did not have enough sleep.

Then, the last night I had to have a telephone conference with the teacher and Students in Saybrook. The time was 10-12. By the time I was done with the phone call, Helen called in. I wanted to let her know that I am available when she needs it. So even though I was very tired and wanted to go to bed, I told her it's ok to chat some more. I ended up sleep at around 1:00 midnight.

Thanks Mr.S for searching for the wallet for me yesterday in Mongkok. Even though we couldn't find it, I finally got it from the Ebay. It will have to ship from the US to HK. I guess it may take a while. Nonetheless, I am quite exciting and looking forward to receive this nice wallet. Usually I don't like to get things that my friend has the same one, but this one is so nice that even though Sherry is using the exactly same one and Nicole is using the same one but in white, I still want to buy it. I find that when a person is stressful, one has the urge to buy stuffs.

I went to Shum Shui Po to see my case today. It's a very exceptional case that I sympathize with the bereaved spouse a lot. Fortunately that Mr.S was with me so that I wasn't too scared to go upstairs. The building was quite terrible. There is a prostitute-like business on the first floor (I had to go to a few stairs above). I will visit this case again soon because she's pregnant and bereaved. Her baby is coming soon but she has not much social connection in HK.

Too bad that I couldn't find what I want after working. I thought I would buy something to appreciate my own hardworking recently. It's a very nice wallet but they are running out of stock. Mr.S went everywhere with me in Mong Kok but still got no luck.

What a great exhibition I saw on my way back home after work. It's an exhibition on claywork done by people with handicapp. Since Mr.S was waiting for me, I did not want him to wait too long. I will take a more in-depth look of those artwork tomorrow when I leave St.Paul tomorrow.

It was in general a great day today. Besides the exhibition and having someone to pick me up, I had a great interview session with a kid. My colleague came to sit the session because she wants to learn to do bereavement counseling with children too. The case was exceptionally demonstrative today. I was quite satisfied with it.

Had a long talk with Sherry for many stuffs this afternoon. I am fortunate that I wasn't in TMH so that I could talk on the phone extensively when I was not busy. It's always such a pleasure to talk to Sherry.

The group in St.Paul also went so well. We are still talking about our personal myths. So many in-depth stuffs came up. I think 6 sessions are really not enough for this kind of in-depth exploration.

The book that I bought from the Amazon are really good. Right now I am reading hte "understanding children's drawings" by Malchiodi. It is so inspiring to my dissertation proposal! Have to work hard on changing the detail of the proposal again after reading the phenomenological approach to understand children's drawing.
