I found some video clips about sign language, you can watch them and learn some.
Sign language is very useful because it helps you communicate with the mute and deaf. Sometimes, some universal sign language can help you break the language barrier and communicate with people from other countries.
Enjoy the videos.
26 alphabets in sign language.
"Imagine" in sign language

Rap that announcement!
How many times have you listened to an aircraft announcement? Well, every time you go on board a flight you must hear an announcement telling you the basic information. Sometimes it's quite boring to hear because it is all about the same thing. And yes, this flight attendant has the same feeling about boring aircraft announcement, so, he did this - RAP this out!
The first minute of the video was about David Holmes, the flight attendant of Southwest airline, introducing himself and inviting the passengers to clap a beat for his rap, as you watch the video, you can also refer to the following lyrics (it's only part of the rap, I only managed to find that much on the Internet).
"I've had five flights today and I can't do the regular boring announcement again otherwise I am going to put myself to sleep."
"Shortly after take-off, first things first/there's soft drinks and coffee to quench your first"
"Carry-on items go under the seat/in front of you so none of you have things by your feet.
"Before we leave, our advice is/put away your electronic devices."
"If you have a seat on a row with an exit/we're gonna talk to you so you might as well expect it. You gotta help us out in case we need you/if you don't want to then we're gonna reseat you."
"I didn't know how they were going to react, but I like to have fun at work. People started getting off the plane and said to me 'that's the first time I have listened to the emergency instructions'."
Speaking after the break down, David Holmes said he was worried how the passangers would react, but was satisfied in the end.
By the way, do you know David Holmes, the flight attendant in our story, shares the same family name with one of the most famous novel character?

Something about the weather
It's quite breezy these days. And Easterly wind dominates, that means the wind is blowing from the East. So, what will happen if we have strong east wind? The east of Hong Kong will be cooler and the west of Hong Kong will be hotter. Why is that so? It's because there are hills (the tallest one is Tai Mo Shan) at the centre of the New Territories which block the wind from blowing to the west and cooling the land.
As you can see from the picture above, the numbers show the temperature in degree Celsius in Hong Kong. You can see that the temperature at the east is lower than that of the west.

I found something funny and cool!!!
I was looking at the Government Flying Service Website, as I looked at the aircrafts, I found something very interesting.
Click to this link to view a photo of a Eurocopter (or "Dolphin"), a helicopter used by Government Flying Service. As you move the cursor on the screen, you can see the aircraft laterally.

And here for Jetstream, a double engine aircraft.

And lastly, "Super Puma".

Aren't they cool? Have fun!

Eyes on Me
I really like this song, this is a song sung by Asia diva Faye Wong (you're probably too young to know who she is). This song is also the theme song of a popular game named "Final Fantasy".
Enjoy the song and the lyrics.
Whenever sang my songs
On the stage, on my own
Whenever said my words
Wishing they would be heard
I saw you smiling at me
Was it real or just my fantasy
You'd always be there in the corner
Of this tiny little bar
My last night here for you
Same old songs, just once more
My last night here with you?
Maybe yes, maybe no
I kind of liked it your way
How you shyly placed your eyes on me
Oh, did you ever know?
That I had mine on you
Darling, so there you are
With that look on your face
As if you're never hurt
As if you're never down
Shall I be the one for you
Who pinches you softly but sure
If frown is shown then
I will know that you are no dreamer
So let me come to you
Close as I wanted to be
Close enough for me
To feel your heart beating fast
And stay there as I whisper
How I loved your peaceful eyes on me
did you ever know
That I had mine on you
Darling, so share with me
Your love if you have enough
Your tears if your're holding back
Or pain if that's what it is
How can I let you know
I'm more than the dress and the voice
Just reach me out then
You will know that you're not dreaming
Darling, so there you are
With that look on your face
As if you're never hurt
As if you're never down
Shall I be the one for you
Who pinches you softly but sure
If frown is shown then
I will know that you are no dreamer

Sunday Happy Formula
What makes a happy Sunday?
I had a happy Sunday, with ease, grace and enjoyment.
I started my day with a big breakfast. A detailed clean of my pets' cage and I bathed my pets, too. I didn't call up my friend, so I was all on my own. It's up to me to do whatever I like. I chose not to sleep away my Sunday because I think it's a waste of time. Instead, I chose to do things that I normally don't have time to do on weekdays.
I played flight sim X at home, landed a few times without sweat. Then I went out for my yoga class.
After the yoga class I was so hungry, and I felt like having a good relaxing afternoon tea.
So I went to Harbor City, I chose an alfresco cafe and ordered a dessert and a cup of coffee. The weather was good, breezy, foggy and cloudy, so I didn't get sun burnt even though I was outdoor.
