Last Time in Hong Kong

My last flight to Hong Kong was the most stressful flight I ever had. The team leader has being famous in our base for very strict. Before the flight I prepared my documents and try not to make any mistakes in the flight. Actually I always respect leaders being strict as long as they are not biased.

I am not sure why I felt the leader didn't like me and pointed many things I did wrong. Another German colleague were also not friendly. After the flight to Hong Kong I felt so much stress and slept only 6 hours in the two days layover in Hong Kong.

On the fligh back to Germany, I tried my best not to make any more mistakes, or I could say I tried my best to do what the leader likes. After the flight another leader who was responsible for my team wrote me a positive feedback, which made me feel somehow released and comforted.

However, I cherish every experience, no matter if it's good or not. I know in the future there are more difficult time will come, I have to look positive.

The interesting thing I found that last time even though I didn't sleep enough, but on the return flight I felt so energetic and didn't feel tired at all. I thought because of the stress and my diet habit that I have changed since weeks. I didn't do binge eating, even during the layover in Hong Kong. I stopped eating as long as I feel I had enough food, which is a big progress for me.I think eating too much will bring burden to our body.Do everything moderatly, especially eating habit maybe is good for us-thats what I think recently. I went to Star Avenue with my colleague. Background is the beautiful victoria harbour.

Pam Ann

From Wikipedia:

Pam Ann is the air hostess alter-ego of Australian comedienne Caroline Reid. Performances focus on the nuances of air travel, identifying the individual quirks of some of the biggest international airlines and their media stereotypes. Her style leans towards camp humour, in the vein of Dame Edna Everage, Kathy Griffin and Chelsea Handler. The character of Pam Ann has developed a cult-like following and fans include Madonna, who describes Pam as "cruelly funny".

Bicycle Riding with Gerhard

As Martin is working in Beijing at this moment, my parents-in-law worries that I feel lonely in Nürnberg so they invited me to go to them on this weekend. Last week Germany has been very cold, it was about 15-18 degree, we felt like the autumn already came to Germany. But this weekend we had a very nice and warm weather. Saturday afternoon I went a bike ride with my father-in-law Gerhard around their city. Gerhard took some fotos to send to Martin.We started the trip at 15:00 and went back home at 18:30-more than three hour's trip. I didn't feel tired at all. I love the nature of Germany as we don't see this often in China.
Gerhard rides bike on every sunday for one hour. I took the bike from Karin, so she didn't join us this time. Maybe next time when I go to them I bring my own bike with me, then we can ride together.

You often see the "becarefull of deers" signs on the highway or street. Here are some nice views of the countryside.

Gerhard made a lot of photos for Martin.
Bikes and shadows. We are all making photos.....

My Route of Exercise

After moved to Nürnberg, finally I found a regular route to do exercise recently.

Due to my Asia face, it's very easy for me to draw other people's attention when I am doing exercising, which I dont't really like. Now I found a quiet and beautiful route to do my every day's work out. It is a way of one hours walk.

Today I took some photos along the way.
Starting of the way-where closing to our apartment.
There is an old people's home.
Keep walking.....
One the right hand is a stud farm.
Sunday is family day, on the way many families riding bikes together.
Turning to another direction, now I can find my shadow.Going to the woods .....
A river.........
One the way back. A Pumpkin field.
The route takes exactly one hour of walking. Thats why I chose it as my regular route to do exersice. I don't run that much anymore as I felt too much pressure and always exhausted. Besides I don't want to have big muscles one my shank. So I choose to a quick walking, that I found I enjoy much more.....

One Day Fasting

Due to yesterday overeating at dinner, today I did one day's fasting to calm down my stomach and body. As the whole day I stayed at home and didn't do so much activities, I thought it's good to let my body rest from yesterday's overwork. The whole day I had only water and two cup of coffee.But in the evening I had no energy to do exercise.

Tomorrow I will go back to my normal diet, but without overeating anymore!!

In last Months

I was surprised how time goes fast. My last post was in the end of June, which was two months ago.I thought I shouldn't stop so lang for writing, but in between I have tried to update my blog then I deleted them because I wasn't patient enough to check the sentences and words. I putted too much attention or stress on eating habit, exercising and cleaning the new apartment in Nürnberg.

Even though at this moment everyone is writing on Facebook, or writing on Weibo(Micro-blogging), but I never thought about to give up writing my blog. Because I don't like to give up things easily if I started to do it, Secondly I still want to practice my English even though my German is still not so good, Thirdly I don't want make the old friends who are still visiting my blog disappointed.

So after this evening's binge(overeating), at this moment I feel better about my stomach. But I still didn't sleep so far, my mind at this moment is still not so clear and I am lazy to check every word what I am writing now. I guess my English is still understandable.

What I did in the past months? Firstly we have moved to Nürnberg. I also found the right routes to run or walking in the late afternoon, which I enjoy very much. I like the small village where we live now. Its a small village, and the people here are more friendly. I enjoy to take the bus driving through the green land to the city center. I also enjoy to walk through the forest and river in the afternoon while listening the musics.

There's a friend also close to us. We meet often and play together with their kinds. We are also closer to my parents-in-law, I don't feel stress to drive to them like before.

In August, Martin and I made a trip to France, which was one of the best trip I ever had.We habe been driving by our car through Switzerland, Italy, Nice, through Provence then to Paris.

It was a one week trip and we have drove in total 3000 km for the whole trip. Here are some photos I put it on OICQ and edited in Chinese for my family to read.http://user.qzone.qq.com/29778333?ptlang=2052.

I started the German course in my company. It takes one week in every two months. Now I have chances to get together with my Chinese colleagues who are from the initial training course. Its interesting to see how the colleagues changed after one year been living in Germany.I don't have to fly recently because of the various trainings in the company, but I need to drive to Munich more often. Its about 160 km far from home. This number would be very far for me if it's in China, but in Germany it looks much shorter and easier to me because of the unlimited driving speed, I feel its easier to drive back and force in the same day(not everyday!)

Martin went to China again for a project. Its funny because I came to Germany for Martin, but now he went to China and I have to live in Germany and work here. Luckily he will be in China only for some months....not forever!!!!

Binge

Today I learned a new English word "Binge". After a Binge dinner, I went out for one hours quick walk. Hopefully it will help me not to gain more weight.

Since beginning of this year, I started to do regular sport such as running, my weight went down slightly from 52.5 kg to around 50kg. No matter how much sport I did, due to my unstable diet, I never get under 50kg.

Since August, I controlled the diet very strict, my weight then went down to 48kg. After moved to Nürnberg, I changed from running to quick walking. Because I found I enjoy quick walking more than just running. Running was too much stress to me.

Unfortunately this dinner I just couldn't control myself to stop eating, until the refrigerator was empty. Luckily I didn't save too much food in the refrigerator.

I started to look at the reason why today I couldn't control myself. Then I found as long as I feel tired, then I always keep eating without stop.In the past days my sleep was too short, and this morning I had to get up at 5 a.m to drive two hours to my company for one day's meeting.When I came back in the afternoon at 6p.m, I felt crazy about food:-(

Maybe I shouldn't start to eat anything if I feel tired, just go to sleep or rest until my body is recovered.Hopefully I will not experience the feeling about overeating again.
