HOLY! I was looking through my old document, and I found an email I wrote back in the last Year of Pig! Back then, I published a SJA Post with some of the old friends, which is a circulation email passing around among the classmates. It all started with some stupid things I did back in those days. Anyway, it's really amazing to read that once again.
Below is just the Editorial I wrote.
(I need to type this one in English, so as to show respect and consistency to our original SJA Post.)
29th January 1995.

Tuesday will be the first day of Chinese New Year. Since most of us are going to graduate this year, I wish you having a "super pass" in the exam and getting a job of your dream.
Tonight, I had a dinner with Todd, Tommy, Jaco and Tony in a restaurant in Daimaru. Having the BBQ in the new year day seems to be yesterday to us. Chinese New Year comes pretty early this week. It makes us having two August, according to lunar calendar. The streets are packed with people. It is hard to squeeze yourself through in any street in Causeway Bay. However, there are not too many people in the "lin siu" market. I guess it is because of the rain. Besides, nothing seems to draw our attention. After the dinner, we went for a walk in Victoria Park to check the market out. As usual it is packed with toys, the picture of idols and plants. Nothing seems to interest us, since the price is certainly not cheaper in any other ordinary store. But one thing did interest me. Comic books. I can't believe that there is comic books in the market. Moreover, they are rare comic books. It is hard to find on the street.
I still remember that when I was a little boy, everything interested me in the market. I guess I am really getting old. Maybe after a couple of year, the row with toys would never interest me again. By that time, I may go for see the "bon sai", you know, the cute little tree, instead. Pretty sad, isn't it?
Anyway, just like the previous years, we will have firework on Wednesday (2nd January). I can't remember who is responsible for the preparation of firework. But with a cloudy weather like this, I don't have high expectation on the outcome. Just like last year, they started the firework regardless the cloud and rain. It turned out that we could not see the ones being shot sky high. I hope that the weather would be getting better in the coming tow days.
Talking back about the Post. We received quite a number of article this week. I must thank Mr. Magic Johnson for his kindly help on writing the full report on gathering dinner for me. I want to do that for a long time. Talking about Magic. I saw a video tape about him last week. It makes me believe that he is the greatest PG (point guard) ever lives on earth. It seems that he has eyes all around his head. He can pass the ball to the right person at the right place without any thinking. I really admire him for that. If he hasn't got the disease, he will certainly make a everlasting history in NBA for such a good PG. (PG's job is to assist teammates to get points. Magic has made a record for that. But someone is coming close to break it. :( )
So much for this week SJA Post. I wish you all having a very happy holiday. We'd love to hear from you on how you spend your Chinese New Year later. Therefore, besides counting how many red packet you get, don't forget to send us article.
