I'm fat, and I'm lazy, and I'm proud of it.

I hate Monday!

Eating right is easy. Each day I eat from the four basic food groups. Breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks.

Here's what Garfield has to say about mornings:

I'd like mornings better if they started later.

I'll rise, but I won't shine.

The early bird is insane.

Start each day with a smile and get it over with.

Waking up is hard to do.

"Good morning"is a contradiction in terms.

Garfield's eating tips:

Never put off till tomorrow what you can eat today.

Eat every meal as if it were your last.

Chew your food at least once.

Snacks only between meals.

Don't save your dessert for last, eat it first.

Garfield's diet tips:

Never go back for second, get it all the first time.

Set your scale back five pounds. On second thought, make it ten.

Vegetable are a must. I recommend carrot cake and pumkin pie.

Never start a diet cold turkey. (Maybe cold roast beef, cold pizza...)

Try to cut back. Leave the cherry off your hot fugde sundae.

Hang around people who are fatter than you.

 Garfield's sleeping tips:

Midnight snacks keep you awake. So stuff yourself at 11:30.

Pay no attention to those weird noises under the bed.

Nap often, so you'll be completely relaxed at bedtime.

Documentaries are guaranteed to induce drowsiness.

Get a teddy bear that won't hog the covers.

Water beds are not for those who claw in their sleep.

Here are some of Garfield's favourite dog put-dowms:

Cats are poety in motion. Dogs are gibberish in neutral.

Life's a bowl of cherries, and dogs are the pits.

The only trick most dogs can do is "play stupid".

Dogs can't walk and drool at the same time.

A dog's breath is worse than his bite.

The only thing uglier than a dog is two dogs.
 

Garfield on pets::

Rabbits: Buy two chocolate ones and hope they multiply.

Goldfish: Neat, quite, and they make a tasty hors d'oeuvre.

Spiders: That's not a pet: that's a nightmare.

Mice: Cute, but they only love you for your cheese.

Dogs: Loving, loyal, and breath that would stun a yak.

Cats: Nature's most perfect pet. Need I say more?

The wit and wisdom of Garfield:

Maturity is overrated.

There are no small jobs, just small paychecks.

Some says"Go for it!" I say,"Make it come to you!"

The meek shall inherit squat.

A little ego gose nowhere.

Garfield on mice:

Show me a cat who's a good mouser, and I'll show you a cat with bad breath.

There's not a mouse. That's a plague germ with feet.

I can't catch a mouse...provided you throw it to me.

While the cat's away, the mice will use his credit card and fertilize his bed.

A mouse in the hand beats two in your underwear.

Some cats chase mice. I prefer to take legal action.

Garfield on cooking:

A chef's hat does not a chef make.

Real cooks don't need recipes.

I don't make meals. I make reservations.

If you can't stand the heat, don't start a grease fire in the kitchen.

You know it undercooked when it start to moo.

The best meals are made by someone else.

Words to live by:

Take life one nap at a time.

Anything worth doing is worth overdoing.

Reach for the stars...settle for the bucks.

If you want to appear smarter, hang around someone stupider.

You can't take it with you , soeat it now. 

The weather is getting cooler. Autumn is my favorite season.

After the hot and passionate summer, things and people would calm down now.
My life is still as regular as usual.
 
Some friends asked my why I call myself "pilgrim". It is not a pleased name.
I have read those words on a magazine.
"I feel like I am a pilgrim,
I piously asked God for the simplest happiness in my mind,
The God gave me a plate of sand,
I grab that desperately,
But I couldn't get them all,
And I won't find my hands empty either.
 
God looked at me and smiled."
 
I got the same kind of feeling in my life.
Well, the happiness in my mind is that I could live with my beloved, in a small house but with a big bed.

And I can get a job that doesn't need to get up early everyday, and then I can sleep as much as I want.

We don't need to be rich, but our life should be comfortable.
 
Something seems easy to get, only untill you search for it, you will see how hard it is.

Tina is my best friend in high school. But after we went to the university, we didn’t contact with each other quite often.

I think it’s over three years that we didn’t meet each other.

 

Things change without notice.

Anyway, I am very glad that she went to Beijing to study for the master degree. And there are plenty of chances for us to be together. It’s so nice to have an old friend visit by. And I plan to go shopping with her this weekend.

 

By the way, last weekend’s party is really great. I am so glad that we could be together after years.

It is quite funny that Ray bought a fruit cake with the words “Welcome to Beijing” on it.

And we think it could be more fun that to write “One World, One Dream” on the cake.

Anyway, wish they will have fun with their study or work in Beijing.

 

As for my work, there is any significant progress with the torch relay project. However, I will try harder! 

pilgrim, how is your journey
on the road you chose
to find out where the winds die
and where the stories go.
all days come from one day
that must you must know,
you cannot change what's over
but only where you go.

one way leads to diamonds,
one way leads to gold,
another leads you only
to everything you're told.
in your heart you wonder
which of these is true;
the road that leads to nowhere,
the road that leads to you.

will you find the answer
in all you say and do?
will you find the answer
in you?

each heart is a pilgrim,
each one wants to know
the reason why the winds die
and where the stories go.
pilgrim, in your journey
you may travel far,
for pilgrim it's a long way
to find out who you are...

pilgrim, it's a long way
to find out who you are...

fade out......
