As usual, after work, Fala and Kate are lying on the couch, channel surfing until they come across a TVB drama.
"Ugh. Do we have to watch HEART OF GREED again?" Kate complained, "Can we watch FORENSIC HEROES 3? Come on, it's new."
"But.." Fala tried to save herself.
"Come on. All they do is fight for the money." Kate imitated, "'It's my money!' 'No..it's MY money!'"
Fala laughed at Kate's imitation, "Fiiiinnnee.." and threw a pillow at her, accidentally knocking over a cup of tea.
Linda, rushing out of the kitchen, yelled, "Oh.my.God. You guys...Again? Can you guys wipe it up?"
Kate, so absorbed in her drama, just said, "Chilll....It's just a cup of tea...She'll do it later.."
Fala chimed in, "Yea...it's just a cup of tea..You're a neat freak.."
"Sorry," Linda apologized, afraid of losing her roommates.
"Dude..it's fine..we were just kidding..just have fun..relax..Fala's gunna wipe it up right now, right Fala?" [Kate]
"Yea..I'M going to wipe it up..because I'm a nice person..unlike SOMEONE...ahem, Kate Tsui," [Fala] With that, Kate reached for a pillow and aimed for Fala but Fala had successfully escaped by running to the kitchen.
After cleaning up her mess, Fala plopped down in her seat, "Ahh...That was some hard work..That's enough exercise to last me for the next 2 weeks.."
"Dude..you wiped a cup of tea.." [Kate]
"Hey, at least I wiped a cup of tea...What did you do?" Fala imitated Kate, "'Oh my god..He [referring to an artiste] is so hott..I am SO going to marry him..oh my god!'"
"Just don't...Fine, what do you look for in a guy?" [Kate]
"I don't know..I don't hunt for guys like you..It just comes.." [Fala]
"For me, they just have to be nice to me, nice to my family, nice to my friends...." [Linda]
"Yea..yea..yea.." Kate said, cutting Linda off, "Let's put it this way, which do you find more important in a boyfriend? Looks or personality?"
"Personality," Linda said without thinking.
"Well, it depends," said Fala, " because when you first like a person, you can like them for their looks AND personality..and then when you 'deeply love' them, and they turn ugly, you would still stay by their side and all.."
"Dude..I asked you one question..you gave me a whole essay..I lost you after you said 'it depends'" [Kate]
"Fine then what do you look for?" [Fala]
"Both" [Kate]
"That's what I just said!" [Fala]
"Yea but I made my answer clear in one word..You had a whole speech and after that, I STILL didn't know what your answer to my question was..." [Kate]
While the two were arguing, Linda was deep in her thoughts. She has never been in a relationship before. She doesn't ask for much in a guy. He doesn't need to have good looks nor wealth. All she wants is..
"Hey!" Fala slapped Linda back to reality.
"[cantonese: jok say ah! literally: seek death]" [Linda]
"Well I'm sorry..geez.." [Fala]
"Ya, Fala..Don't bother her, she's [cantonese: fat gun hau, literally: idk how to explain it..lol]" Kate says while filing her nails.
"What are you guys talking about?" Linda asks, trying to save herself.
"You probably have an eye out on your prey already," [Kate]
"You make it sound so nasty..and by the way, THIS is what they teach you in the U.S.?" [Linda]
"Hey..it's only her.." [Fala] "Out of the 3 guys next door, who would you choose?"
"I don't know..dude..this is awkward.." [Kate]
"Ya..I really don't know..." [Linda]
"Fine...Let's put it this way..Would you date Bosco?" Fala asked
"I guess.." Linda replied. She was not the type of person to reveal her true feelings all the time.
"Well, he's rich.." [Kate]
"You're so shallow" Linda commented.
"Hey, I admit it," Kate said proudly.
"Ok..next..Raymond?" Fala asked.
"Yea..I guess..He's pretty nice," Linda admitted.
"Yea..he's rich...he has the looks..and yea..he's a nice guy," Kate replied.
"And how about Ron?" Fala asked.
"Err..maybe..I mean after all, he IS a good guy..and he DOES come up with good jokes.." Linda replied.
"Umm..probably not...Honestly, I don't think I would ever have feelings for him because I see him more as a brother..especially since we are both police officers on the same 'team'" [Kate] "Oh..by the way, speaking of Ron, he's applying to be an SDU."
"What's that?" Linda asked cluelessly.
"Special Duties Unit," Fala said quickly and then devoting her full attention to Kate.
"That's all I know..You can ask him for more information. He applied and now, I think all the applicants are training for the fitness test," Kate explained.
"Wait..when do you know when you get in?" Fala asked.
"I don't know. I only know that they have a whole 'nother like 3 months to train. Maybe more," Kate said. With that, she turned her attention back to FORENSIC HEROES 3.
The next morning, the three girls were watching the latest TVB drama when the doorbell rang. No one got up.
"You go," Linda nudged Fala, "I'm tired.."
"I'm tired too. You go," Fala commanded, tossing a stuffed dog at Kate.
"No..shhh...The show's about to start..." Kate hushed.
"Well I'm not going," Fala crossed her arms.
"Neither am I," Linda imitated Fala and crossed her arms. Kate glared at the two and reluctantly pushed herself off the seat and shuffled to the door.
"Coming..." Kate screamed. She opened the door to find Bosco and Raymond standing there.
" 'sup?" Bosco asked, plopping down in the seat next to Fala, making himself at home.
Fala ignoring Bosco, looked around for Ron. He wasn't there. "Where's the other one?" she asked Raymond.
"Oh..he's training or something," Raymond said as he plopped down in Kate's seat.
"Yea right..He's probably out with one of his girlfriends," [Bosco]
"No one would date him," commented Kate.
"Hey pass me a can of coke," Raymond nudged Linda.
"Get it yourself," Linda nudged back.
"Fine, be that way. Go ahead and make me trek all the way to the coffee table and carry a whole can of coke all the way back here," Raymond exaggerated.
"The coffee table's like 2 feet away," Linda gave up and tossed Raymond a can of coke.
"And I win again," Raymond cheered.
"That's because it's Linda. Everyone wins against her," Bosco chimed in. Linda, who could not think of a comeback just threw a pillow at him. Kate, so absorbed in her drama, was not aware of her surroundings.
"Hey, toss me a can of coke," Kate ordered, her eyes still glued onto the TV screen.
"He took the last one," Linda pointed to Raymond.
"Ugh, you suck," Kate sulked, "Someone go buy some more."
"Go get it yourself. You're so lazy. Why are you guys even watching this stuff?" Bosco asked.
"Because the male lead is hot," Kate said without even thinking.
"Well, I'm hotter," Bosco claimed.
"Ha..ha.." Fala laughed, "What a joke.."
"Shut up," Bosco said to Fala.
"No seriously though, someone go get more coke," Kate said.
"Not me!" they all exclaimed, all except Fala.
"Ugh..Me again?" Fala complained, getting up from her seat, "Give me money."
"Don't ask me for it. You know I don't have any. You might as well ask the hobos on the street. Ask Bosco. He's rich," Kate said. Fala turned her attention to Bosco.
"I'm not rich. My dad's rich. There's a difference" [Bosco]
Raymond pulled out some money and handed it to Fala. "I'll keep the change," Fala said, running out the door.
Ron who was using the gym downstairs had just finished working out when he saw Fala walk out of the lobby. He went up behind her.
"Hey, where you going?" Ron asked.
"Buying soda," Fala answered. "What are you doing here? Aren't you supposed to be 'working out'?"
"I just finished," Ron said, following Fala into the store.
Fala grabbed two packs of soda and headed for the cash register. While she was paying, she said, "You want to train right? Here, carry these upstairs for me," she ordered, handing the soda to Ron.
"C'mon," Ron complained, reaching for the bags,"I was in that gym for like 3 hours already. It was horrible! There were 'pork chops' [ugly girls] every where! None of them were 'edible'! I feel so violated."
"You're so shallow, always about the looks. Watch, you're going to get married with one of them one day. And violated?" Fala skipped to the door.
" 'Choi! [cantonese, i think it's like 'touchwood'] I will not lower my standards and eat pork chops, save them for Ray & Bosco. And yes, violated. They came over and started.." Ron made a puke face, "touching me." He shivered as they went into the elevator. Fala stuck her hand in Ron's direction, reaching for the buttons on the elevator. "Ahh!" Ron screamed, "Now it's YOUR turn? Enough violation for the day!"
Fala pressed the button, "Stupid! 'haan dee la!' [cantonese, it's literally like 'save dee lah!']"
"Hey, I wouldn't be surprised if you did. After all, I am charming and handsome and muscular and good looking and smart and..." Ron continued.
"Yea..uh huh..You wish," Fala said, stepping out of the elevator, "In you're dreams."
"Well then I must be dreaming right now," Ron said, unashamed.
The two of them rejoined the crew. "Ugh. Worst elevator ride ever," Fala complained.
"Can't you two just give it a break?" [Bosco]
"Hey, according to my experiences.." [Kate]
"Experiences of what?" Linda asked.
"Of watching TVB dramas, two people who often bicker usually end up together," Kate proudly declared.
"Stupid," Ron said to Kate.
"Hey, that's true though. At least in TV dramas," Linda added.
"Well in TV dramas, all the actresses are good looking and when you look at her.." Ron pointed to Fala.
"You.." Fala threw a pillow at Ron. "Well on TV, all the actors are good looking but when you look at HIM.." she glared at Ron.
"When you look at me, I'm even MORE handsome," Ron claimed.
"Dude, he said he was willing to wash all the clothes, do all the chores for his girlfriend if he finds a hot one," Raymond exposed.
"Dude..what happened to his dignity [cantonese: juun yeem; it sounds like bottle of salt] ?" Bosco asked.
"He poured all of it in his porridge this morning," Fala said. [b/c dignity in cantonese is juun yeem and it sounds like bottle of salt]
"Very funny. At least I had any to start with," Ron retorted.
"Forget you, I'm leaving," Fala picked her bag up from the floor and walked out the door. "I'm not coming home for dinner," she said as she walked out the door.
When Fala was out of earshot, Raymond whacked Ron with a pillow, "Dude, stop fighting with her all the time. You guys are like a dog and a cat."
"Yea, dude..not cool. You made her leave her own apartment," Bosco added.
Ron sighed, "You guys are all idiots. She's not mad at me. Did you see her? She was all dolled up before she left. I'm 99% sure she finally found someone that was willing to take her. I bet they're blind."
"Well, all girls like to doll themselves up and stuff..Never heard her talking about her boyfriend or anything..Never even knew she had one.." Linda chimed in.
Bosco added, "All girls like to get dolled up and stuff..all girls except Kate." Kate whacked Bosco on the head and went back to her TV drama.
Ron sighed once more, "You guys don't understand girls. I have had the most experience with these 'unique animals' so therefore I am right. End of discussion."
Kate, with her eyes still glued onto the TV screen, added, "Aiya. You guys can just ask her when she gets home tonight."
Raymond added, "Well how do you know she's even coming home tonight?" He winked.
"You're learning," Ron said to Raymond.
"All of you guys are so sick-minded. You pervs.." Linda said, reaching for a strawberry.
"Hey..I didn't say anything," Bosco clarified.
"I'm hungry..Let's go get dinner," [Kate]
"Ugh..I don't wanna walk.." Raymond complained.
"Let's just make one person go get it," [Linda]
"Ugh. Fala's not here. We can't make her go get it," Ron added.
"How about.." Raymond thought aloud, "The oldest person has to get it?"
"K..I'm cool with that," Kate agreed, "So it's between you three boys."
Raymond and Bosco eyed Ron. "Ugh," Ron got up from his seat, "You guys planned this. Hold on. Let me finish this drama."
"Fine," [Bosco]
About an hour passed when Ron was finished with his drama. He went to a local cafe and made his order. While waiting for his order, he spotted Fala, eating with a guy who seemed like her boyfriend. Ron went over to say 'hi' when her 'boyfriend' left his seat. "Hey," Ron said, plopping down in Fala's 'boyfriend's' seat.
"Hey, go away! Someone's sitting there," Fala whispered.
"Your boyfriend? Is he blind?" Ron joked.
"None of your business," she whispered while attempting to push Ron away, "what are you doing here?"
"I'm getting take-out for those pigs," he said.
"Well now you know how I feel," Fala said.
"As a matter of fact, no I do not. I was chosen to carry out such a difficult task because of fate while you were chosen because you're stupid, always one step behind," [Ron]
"Ugh. Just go away. I don't want to argue with you," Fala said, once again trying to push Ron away. Just then, Fala's 'boyfriend' had arrived back at the table.
"Hi," he said politely.
"Hey, 'sup dawg," Ron said, still in the seat.
"Oh..umm..Let me introduce you guys. This is Ron and this is Steven," Fala introduced.
"Hi, I'm Steven Ma, CEO of the Ritz Carlton," Steven said, handing a business card to Ron.
"Oh, that rich-people hotel 3 blocks away?" Ron whispered to Fala, "Wow...You really know how to choose your guys." He turned his attention back to Steven and reached out his arm for a handshake, "Hi, I'm Sergeant Ron Ng, her boyfriend." Steven cocked his head in confusion. "He..he..her boy friend..you know? Male friend."
"Ha, ha. You're quite a funny guy," Steven laughed politely.
Fala, wanting to continue her date with Steven ended their conversation. "Oh you should go check if your order's ready yet," she told Ron, "You know..It wouldn't be too nice if you kept your friends waiting." Fala pushed Ron towards the cash register and resumed her dinner with a sigh of relief after Ron left.
A couple of hours later, Fala had reached the door of her apartment, realizing that she forgot her keys. She rung the doorbell only to have Ron open the door. "Hey, home already? We thought you weren't going to come home," Ron said with a smile. She glared at Ron for a moment before heading to her room, "I'm going to go shower," she declared.
"Remember not to use hot water! It might make you're wrinkles more severe!" Ron screamed.
"Dude, give her a break," Linda commented.
"Yea..Stop being so mean to her," Raymond added.
"Yea, be nicer to her..or I'm going to screw up your appraisal at the end of the year. Let's see if you can still become an SDU," [Kate]
"You..." Ron said to Kate reluctantly, "Fine, I'll TRY."

OUR LOVE STORY-CHAPTER 2
"Kate, wake up. Go say 'Good Morning' to your father after you brush your teeth" Kate's mom ordered.
"Mom, I don't get you guys. Why do you guys talk to the dead?" Kate asked with her eyes still closed.
"Aiya! Just get up and do as I say. Your father died when he was chasing the bank robbers. You can go ask his police colleagues." [Kate's mom]
"That's still not the answer to my question," Kate mumbled. After eating breakfast and getting ready, she headed out to meet Fala and her new roommate. Arriving at the residential building, she was amazed. "Woow...this place is amazing!" On the way to the elevator, she passed by a map. "Oh my god. There's even a 7-Eleven downstairs! OMG! A pool AND a gym?!" Kate screamed in delight.
"There's a library & a private park too," Fala said, sneaking up behind Kate. Kate turned around to see who it was. "This is Linda, this is Kate," she introduced.
"Hey," Linda said with a smile.
"Hi..haha..You guys scared me. This place is awesome!" [Kate]
"I know! The apartment is really nice too! The interior design is amazing!" [Linda]
"Eek! I'm so excited! Can't wait! Why is the elevator taking so long?" Kate asked impatiently. Just then, the elevator doors popped open.
"Speak of devil," Fala replied. With that, the three of them poured into the elevator. Behind them, two guys about their age were considering the apartment next to theirs. "Are they our future neighbors?" Fala whispered after getting out of the elevator.
"I don't know...It's my first time here," Kate said, admiring the halls.
"It doesn't matter..unless...." Linda said with a sly smile, clearly implying something.
"No!" Fala denied with a smile.
"Okay..okay.." [Linda]
After a tour of the apartment, Kate agreed to rent the place with Fala and Linda. "Yay! We have a new home now!" Linda exclaimed.
"Hey are you guys busy today?" Fala asked while waiting for the elevator.
"No, why?" asked Linda.
"It depends on what you want me to do.." replied Kate.
"I was wondering if you guys wanted to go shopping for new furniture and stuff" [Fala]
Before the two girls had a chance to reply, the two guys next door came to introduce themselves. "Hey," one said.
"You guys moving in?" asked the other.
"Ya.." the three of them replied.
"Looks like we'll be neighbors. We're moving in next to you guys. I'm Raymond," Raymond said with a welcoming smile.
"And I'm Bosco," Bosco said with a friendly smile.
"Hi, I'm Linda"
"Hi, I'm Kate"
"And I'm Fala"
"I couldn't help but overhear you guys going out to buy furniture for your new apartment. Do you mind if we join you guys?" asked Bosco.
"I'm cool with it," Kate said coolly.
"Fine with me," Fala said with a smile.
"MmKay," Linda said nicely.
After a long ride through the heavy traffic of people rushing to work, the five of them finally arrived at the store. Luckily, it was a weekday morning. There weren't many people. "Dude..you drive so slow," Kate exclaimed, unafraid.
"Well, SORRY," Bosco said jokingly. "Why don't you drive on the way back?"
Finally inside the store, the 5 of them had already split up unknowingly. When they realized that they split up, they all just thought "Oh well..we can meet up later" and with that, each one of them began taking notes of the items they wanted.
Bosco was in the bedding section when he saw Fala looking at the sofas. Walking over to Fala, he said "Hey Fala. Come over here. I found something for you"
"Wait hold on..I need to copy down the number of this sofa so we can find it later" Fala replied.
After Fala was done, Bosco dragged her from the hand to the cushions section. "What's that 'something' you found for me, Mr. Wong?"
Picking up two round cushions from the pile, Bosco exclaimed, "These!"
Fala shook her head in confusion, "Don't get it..." To explain to Fala, Bosco thought there was no better way than to demonstrate. He stuffed both of them in his shirt in the chest area. When Fala finally got it, she slapped him with a laugh, "You're disgusting!" In response, Bosco lightly hit her with a pillow. Soon, the two were involved in a pillow fight. It was all fun and games until a staff member came along and gave them 'the look.' Embarrassed, Fala quickly walked over to the mattresses, running back into Linda and Kate. After a long search for Raymond, both the guys and the girls picked their decided on furniture and split up the costs. After that, they decided to go out and have lunch together.
While waiting for their food, the 5 of them decided to introduce themselves a little more. The guys went first. Raymond, introducing Bosco instead of himself, said "he's Bosco Wong, age 22, rich kid, & SINGLE!" With that, Bosco elbowed his friend.
"Hey, after college, I haven't been using my family's money. It's my family that's rich, not me" Bosco clarified. "This is the rich kid, age 22, only son, and the girls love him," Bosco said about Raymond. Before Raymond could slap him, the waiter arrived at their table with their order.
"Soo..what do you guys plan on doing? You know..as in a job..." asked Raymond.
With a mouth full of food, Kate blurted out, "Before coming back to Hong Kong, I already applied for Senior Inspector of the HK Police. They said I could go for a job interview tomorrow."
"Cover your mouth," Linda ordered with a smile.
"You're just like my mom," Kate said in response. "So Mom, what do you plan on doing?"
With a smile, Linda replied, "I'm a social worker. Well, actually, I just got the job like a week ago."
"Wow, you have a job already? Nice," Fala added.
"Haha..no we just got let out a bit early from HKU," Linda answered.
"Waiit...you guys don't know each other?" asked Raymond, with a confused look. Before he had the chance to receive answer from either one of them, the waiter came with their check.
"I'll pay," offered Raymond.
"No. It's fine, we can just pay for ourselves," added Linda.
"It's fine..He's rich, remember?" Bosco chimed in.
"Shut up," Raymond said, nudging Bosco.
Things are just hectic today for Kate. She just finished her interview and her superior already wants her to get started on work. Could she say no? On top of that, the day has finally come for her to move into the apartment. Sadly, she has to wait to after work. "No..I can't...I'm at work..I have to wait 'til 5...sorry!" Kate whispered into her phone.
"Madam, everything okay?" asked one of her subordinates, by the name of Ron.
"Ya..everything's fine..I just didn't think I would be here today.." complained Kate.
"Did you have something planned?" [Ron]
"I was going to move into my new apartment today with my friends. But Ko Sir decided that I should start 'as soon as possible'," Kate said, mocking her superior.
"Wait, do you happen to know any apartments for rent?" asked Ron.
"Why, you want to rent one? I could ask for you, but no promises," [Kate]
"Thank you! If you find me a place, I'll call you big bro from now on!" [Ron]
Kate on the phone, replied with an awkward, "No thanks.." When Raymond finally picked up, Kate asked, "Hey Raymond, I have this colleague and he's looking for a place...do you guys have an extra room for him?"
Raymond jokingly asked, "It depends. Is he good-looking?"
"Why does that matter? Are you gay?" Kate joked.
"Okay..okay..Yea..we have an extra room..AS LONG AS HE'S NOT GAY.." Raymond clarified.
"Kk thanks. I'll bring him up tonight," finished Kate. "Hey are you gay?" Kate asked Ron. Ron only responded with a puzzled look.
After Ron moved in and joined their crew, he brought them lots of laughter and cheer. Kate who has a black belt claimed she could chop a board in half with her bare hands. Taking a scrap of wood from the pile of trash left over from their move-in, Ron gave the piece of wood to Kate, "Madam, I got the board out of Fala Chen's chest." With that, Fala and Ron were engaged in war. They threw pillows at each other.
Finally, Linda ended it all with her motherly command, "Guys, stop..You're so immature!" She was able to end the pillow fight. But the two started another war soon after.
While watching a movie, Ron was in charge of cutting their celebratory cake. When Fala wasn't looking, he took the chance to wipe some cream on her face. Seeking revenge, Fala tried to do the same. Unfortunately, Ron escaped and ran off into the hallway. "Woah there! Make sure you guys lock the door! We're all under 18 here, it's not suitable for us to hear or watch..so keep it quiet in there!" joked Bosco. With that, Bosco raised both of his arms to escape a slap from both Raymond and Linda. Both shared a smile. Meanwhile, Ron ended up hiding in the bathroom. However, he was unable to escape from Fala. Fala managed to get into the bathroom and locked the door behind her.
"Woah. Did you hear that? They actually did lock the door," commented Raymond.
"Shut up! I'm trying to watch a movie," [Kate]
"Well, SORRY.." apologized Raymond.
"Omg..you guys..look at this mess.." Linda said, getting up to clean the place.
"It's okay..you don't have to clean it up. We'll clean it up after, right Bosco?" [Raymond]
"No." [Bosco] Raymond nudged him.
"Wah! What are you going to do to me?" asked Ron in a frightened tone, hands crisscrossed over his chest. "I'm going to scream!" Fala stuck her hand near his face. "Hey watch it...I'm a cop.." When that didn't seem to make Fala leave, he used his last plan, "I'm going to pee.."
"Okay," Fala retorted quickly.
"I'm really going," Ron threatened, this time actually putting his hands near his zipper. That seemed to do the trick.
Fala rushed out of the bathroom screaming "You're crazy!!!"
"Haha..stupid.." Ron said as he bathed in his victory.
"Mom, I don't get you guys. Why do you guys talk to the dead?" Kate asked with her eyes still closed.
"Aiya! Just get up and do as I say. Your father died when he was chasing the bank robbers. You can go ask his police colleagues." [Kate's mom]
"That's still not the answer to my question," Kate mumbled. After eating breakfast and getting ready, she headed out to meet Fala and her new roommate.

When Fala finally got it, she slapped him with a laugh, "You're disgusting!" In response, Bosco lightly hit her with a pillow. Soon, the two were involved in a pillow fight. It was all fun and games until a staff member came along and gave them 'the look.' Embarrassed, Fala quickly walked over to the mattresses, running back into Linda and Kate. After a long search for Raymond, both the guys and the girls picked their decided on furniture and split up the costs. After that, they decided to go out and have lunch together.
While waiting for their food, the 5 of them decided to introduce themselves a little more. The guys went first. Raymond, introducing Bosco instead of himself, said "he's Bosco Wong, age 22, rich kid, & SINGLE!" With that, Bosco elbowed his friend.
"Hey, after college, I haven't been using my family's money. It's my family that's rich, not me" Bosco clarified. "This is the rich kid, age 22, only son, and the girls love him," Bosco said about Raymond. Before Raymond could slap him, the waiter arrived at their table with their order.
"Soo..what do you guys plan on doing? You know..as in a job..." asked Raymond.
With a mouth full of food, Kate blurted out, "Before coming back to Hong Kong, I already applied for Senior Inspector of the HK Police. They said I could go for a job interview tomorrow."
"Cover your mouth," Linda ordered with a smile.
"You're just like my mom," Kate said in response. "So Mom, what do you plan on doing?"
With a smile, Linda replied, "I'm a social worker. Well, actually, I just got the job like a week ago."
"Wow, you have a job already? Nice," Fala added.
"Haha..no we just got let out a bit early from HKU," Linda answered.
"Waiit...you guys don't know each other?" asked Raymond, with a confused look. Before he had the chance to receive answer from either one of them, the waiter came with their check.
"I'll pay," offered Raymond.
"No. It's fine, we can just pay for ourselves," added Linda.
"It's fine..He's rich, remember?" Bosco chimed in.
"Shut up," Raymond said, nudging Bosco.
Things are just hectic today for Kate. She just finished her interview and her superior already wants her to get started on work. Could she say no? On top of that, the day has finally come for her to move into the apartment. Sadly, she has to wait to after work. "No..I can't...I'm at work..I have to wait 'til 5...sorry!" Kate whispered into her phone.
"Madam, everything okay?" asked one of her subordinates, by the name of Ron.
"Ya..everything's fine..I just didn't think I would be here today.." complained Kate.
"Did you have something planned?" [Ron]
"I was going to move into my new apartment today with my friends. But Ko Sir decided that I should start 'as soon as possible'," Kate said, mocking her superior.
"Wait, do you happen to know any apartments for rent?" asked Ron.
"Why, you want to rent one? I could ask for you, but no promises," [Kate]
"Thank you! If you find me a place, I'll call you big bro from now on!" [Ron]
Kate on the phone, replied with an awkward, "No thanks.." When Raymond finally picked up, Kate asked, "Hey Raymond, I have this colleague and he's looking for a place...do you guys have an extra room for him?"
Raymond jokingly asked, "It depends. Is he good-looking?"
"Why does that matter? Are you gay?" Kate joked.
"Okay..okay..Yea..we have an extra room..AS LONG AS HE'S NOT GAY.." Raymond clarified.
"Kk thanks. I'll bring him up tonight," finished Kate. "Hey are you gay?" Kate asked Ron. Ron only responded with a puzzled look.
After Ron moved in and joined their crew, he brought them lots of laughter and cheer. Kate who has a black belt claimed she could chop a board in half with her bare hands. Taking a scrap of wood from the pile of trash left over from their move-in, Ron gave the piece of wood to Kate, "Madam, I got the board out of Fala Chen's chest." With that, Fala and Ron were engaged in war. They threw pillows at each other.
Finally, Linda ended it all with her motherly command, "Guys, stop..You're so immature!" She was able to end the pillow fight. But the two started another war soon after.
While watching a movie, Ron was in charge of cutting their celebratory cake. When Fala wasn't looking, he took the chance to wipe some cream on her face. Seeking revenge, Fala tried to do the same. Unfortunately, Ron escaped and ran off into the hallway. "Woah there! Make sure you guys lock the door! We're all under 18 here, it's not suitable for us to hear or watch..so keep it quiet in there!" joked Bosco. With that, Bosco raised both of his arms to escape a slap from both Raymond and Linda. Both shared a smile. Meanwhile, Ron ended up hiding in the bathroom. However, he was unable to escape from Fala. Fala managed to get into the bathroom and locked the door behind her.
"Woah. Did you hear that? They actually did lock the door," commented Raymond.
"Shut up! I'm trying to watch a movie," [Kate]
"Well, SORRY.." apologized Raymond.
"Omg..you guys..look at this mess.." Linda said, getting up to clean the place.
"It's okay..you don't have to clean it up. We'll clean it up after, right Bosco?" [Raymond]
"No." [Bosco] Raymond nudged him.
"Wah! What are you going to do to me?" asked Ron in a frightened tone, hands crisscrossed over his chest. "I'm going to scream!" Fala stuck her hand near his face. "Hey watch it...I'm a cop.." When that didn't seem to make Fala leave, he used his last plan, "I'm going to pee.."
"Okay," Fala retorted quickly.
"I'm really going," Ron threatened, this time actually putting his hands near his zipper. That seemed to do the trick.
Fala rushed out of the bathroom screaming "You're crazy!!!"
"Haha..stupid.." Ron said as he bathed in his victory.
OUR LOVE STORY-CHAPTER 1
"Okay, Mom. I'll clean it up after." Just getting off the plane, Kate was tired from dragging the two suitcases & three duffel bags out of the elevator. "If only I were rich," she thought aloud.
"You wish...Hurry up...Go wash up and change..Dinner's almost ready.." [Kate's mom]
"Why do I have to change? I think I look fine in my clothes," Kate retorted.
"Fine? You wore your pajamas to the airport!" [Kate's mom]
"What's wrong with that?" Kate asked with a smile.
"Aiya! Forget it! How are you ever going to find a boyfriend?" [Kate's mom]
"Haha..How do you know I'm not lesbian?" Kate smiled.
"Very funny. Go wash up. Your aunt's coming home soon." [Kate's mom]
"Ok fine. Eww. Why is she here?" [Kate]
"Don't be rude. She's staying here" [Kate's mom]
"Please tell me it's temporary" [Kate]
"Nope..long term. She and your uncle divorced. Now she's coming back to stay with us." [Kate's mom]
"Wait..we only have 2 rooms" [Kate]
"Oh yea..I forgot to tell you that you're sleeping on the sofa" [Kate's mom]
"Forever?" Getting up from the couch, Kate marched to the bathroom to wash her hands while her mom prepared the remaining dishes. Looking at herself in the mirror, she sighed "Looks like I have to move" *sigh* "Oh well, at least I don't have to live with her.." Plopping down in the seat next to the head of the table, Kate asked her mom, "Mom do you know where I can move to?"
"Nope. Honey, you're on your own this time." Pointing to the living room, she said "This is your new room 'til you find a new place to move to."
Kate sighed. "She's not even home yet and she's already causing me so much trouble. I can't even imagine how much trouble she would bring if she WERE home...." "Mom, I'll come back in 10 minutes. I'm going out to call my old classmates to see if they know any apartments for rent..Be back soon!" with that, she slammed the door and went down to the park nearby. Plopping her rear on the swing, she scrolled through her contacts list. "Nope..He lives in the U.S...She went back to Canada...Eww..I don't even like her...."
"Woow..it's so nice here!" exclaimed Fala.
"Of course! There's an indoor pool & an outdoor one! Plus, a library, a gym, and even a private park exclusively for our residents. You can bring your children down there to play once you get married." the manager said cheerfully.
"Haha..That won't be anytime soon..I'll think about it..I'll call you when I have made my decision" Fala said, ending the tour of the apartment.
"Okay! No problem. Thanks for visiting. I still have some stuff to finish up downstairs. By the way, there will be another customer coming up soon, just letting you know. Feel free to look around, just close the door when your done." With that, the manager left to attend his business.
"It's so nice..but so expensive!!" She took one last look at the apartment and was about to leave when she ran into Linda.
"Hi" Linda greeted.
"Hey...You looking around?" Fala asked warmly.
"Ya..haha..it's quite nice here. I really like the living environment" [Linda]
"Yea..it's really nice..I love it here too..but the price.." [Fala]
"I know..it's quite pricey..waaaay out of my budget.." [Linda]
"Same here...When I was little, my parents always told me that the land here in Hong Kong is really expensive..Today, I finally get to see it myself.." [Fala]
"Haha..yea..You from overseas?" [Linda]
"Yea..haha..My Cantonese is really bad isn't it?" [Fala]
"No...it's fine! Many of the ABCs don't even know how to speak Cantonese! Where are you from?" [Linda]
"I'm from the U.S. and I just graduated from college there and I wanted to come develop my career in Hong Kong...haha..My parents are in the U.S. and I don't have relatives here..so I've been staying at the hotel.." [Fala]
"Oh..haha..maybe we could rent this place together! How much would that be? haha..You don't mind right?" [Linda]
"Not at all," Fala smiled. "You're a nice person, of course I wouldn't mind!"
Whipping out her calculator, Linda started calculating the price of rent, gas, electricity, and water and dividing everything by two. "Aiya! It's still not within my budget," showing Fala the calculator.
"Not within my budget either..Wait..We have 3 rooms here. Maybe we can find someone else..Do you know anyone looking for a place to rent?" asked Fala. Linda shook her head. "Oh. Hold on. I have some college classmates that live in Hong Kong." Scrolling through her contacts list, she came across Kate's name. "Oooh! How about this one? She's the down-to-earth type, quite funny too...to be honest, I don't really know her but I was in a project with her once and she seems like a nice girl."
"Ok...I don't mind as long as she's a girl and she's not difficult to live with," admitted Linda.
"Haha..I'm actually pretty hard to stand, just saying.." Fala said with a smile. With that, she started dialing Kate's number.
After being rejected several times, Kate let out a deep sigh. Just then, she received a call from Fala Chen. "Hullo?" Kate spoke into the microphone of her smartphone.
"Hi Kate. Remember me? Fala Chen from the Shakespeare project?" Fala asked.
"Oh hey. What's up?" Kate asked, being polite.
"I know this sounds crazy since we aren't too familiar with each other, but I've come across this really awesome apartment for rent and it's in a really nice environment and there's 3 rooms so I'm wondering if you would like to come live with us in the apartment.." [Fala]
"OMG! Really? I was JUST looking for a place! Thank you! Can I come over tomorrow?" Kate asked excitedly.
"Sure thing. I can introduce you to our other roommate. Her name's Linda Chung." Fala informed Kate.
"K...I gotta go eat..See you tomorrow!" [Kate]
"K..bi!" [Fala]
With that, Kate ran back to the apartment building, excited to tell her mom the good news. As she was heading toward the entrance, she ran into her 'beloved' aunt. "Kate!" screamed her beloved aunt from 10 feet away. Kate turned toward the sound of the voice, ready to complain about her aunt's unnecessary loud voice when she saw her aunt running towards her with arms wide open, ready for a hug. At that moment, Kate dug out her keys, opened the door, and headed towards the elevator. After safely reaching the elevator, she breathed a sigh of relief.
"What's wrong with that woman? Ugh! I should move out as soon as possible, can't stand her. I should tell Fala to hurry up with the contracts and stuff" Kate mumbled to herself in the elevator ride.

haha..sorry guys..chapter one's pretty boring...

OUR LOVE STORY-FOREWORDS
haha..actually...not much to say..i usually don't do this since i always say too much and give away the whole thing..
Six individuals just graduating from college, all of whom are from different backgrounds are brought together by fate. Through thin & thick, they are always there for one another, always supporting each other..but will that support last forever? Will their friendship last forever?
This fanfic takes us through the journey of six individuals' path to friendship, love, and their dreams.
ok..ya..that's enough..lol..sorry..really cheesy...haha..ok..so i've decided to use these artistes as main characters:
Bosco Wong-He's the comedian of the group along with Ron Ng. Coming from a wealthy family, like Raymond Lam's, he has vowed to use his own hands to support himself after graduating from college. He dislikes it when people treat him differently or look at him differently because he's rich.
Fala Chen-She's not the 'go with the flow' type of girl. She's not afraid to stand out & speak her mind, which may cause some trouble for her in today's society. However, this personality of hers may help her find a group of friends whom she can count on through thin and thick. Though she's not like other girls, she still has some things in common with them. She's still an ordinary girl when it comes to love. She hopes to find her Prince Charming & create their own love story.
Kate Tsui-Kate is a tomboy & not afraid to speak her mind. She's rather straightforward and oftentimes, she's the one to wake her female friends from their daydreams. She believes that fate will bring her & her Prince Charming together, no need to rush.
Linda Chung-Filial & kind-hearted, she's the number one choice for a girlfriend or even a wife. She is sweet and willing to help others, something that makes this diamond sparkle. She understands that her family is not wealthy so when growing up, she never asked for unnecessary luxuries. She's the 'mom' of the crowd, not allowing them to eat junk food, pulling all-nighters, & constantly nags.
Raymond Lam-He's the romantic one in the crowd, always so sweet. Which girl wouldn't fall for him? He's sweet, rich, and he has the looks. He & Bosco are family friends and have been for as long as they can remember. Growing up together, the two have become like brothers. 2 guys. 1 life.
Ron Ng-Another comedian in the crowd. He may not be rich like Raymond & Bosco, but with his good looks & his sense of humor, he can score a girl, or should I say several girls, with no difficulty, something he likes to brag about quite often.
haha..sorry..i won't be using the polls/survey anymore!

WITNESS INSECURITY-MEMORABLE SCENES
Linda's Tryouts
You guys remember that scene..where Linda applied to a German school..and then she had to tryout..and there were like 3 judges/representatives from the school..and Linda had to choose a song to play on the cello...and she chose 'The Moon Represents My Heart'...ya..ok..that scene was so touching..w/ the music..and the flashbacks..& her tears...
Bosco's Death
ok..im sure all of you remember this scene..& im sure we all know why it's so memorable..but i just wanted to point out that the background music really makes a difference :P...

WITNESS INSECURITY-LINDA CHUNG
In the beginning of the drama, when Linda still suffered from depression, it was like a golden opportunity for her to show her skills...and she took that opportunity..and ya..she did a great job..even though i preferred seeing her in the beginning of the drama..b/c her character was more interesting back then, she still did a great job acting out the role that was given to her..she changed from like the one who needed support & love..to someone who gave support and love to others when they needed her..i loved seeing her heal from her depression & i was glad to see her open up herself :D she always seemed to be in her own fairytale, oblivious to the events in the real world..all that truly mattered was her cello, her father, & Bosco..every girl has her own fairytale, her own love story, and her own Prince Charming..Bosco was her Prince Charming..I liked how they made Linda all innocent & stuff and then Bosco was more realistic..In both WITNESS INSECURITY & MOONLIGHT RESONANCE, Linda had to make some major decisions..although she was indecisive in both, I liked her 'indecisiveness' in WITNESS INSECURITY more..i love how every little thing Bosco says makes her happy..

WITNESS INSECURITY-OVERALL THOUGHTS
here r some of my thoughts...im not really sure if it's like all the breakups that create such a depressing atmosphere..but WITNESS INSECURITY was pretty depressing..not that it wasn't good..umm..i thought the overall like plot for the drama was pretty good..b/c they didn't start out w/ Bosco investigating the robbery case til near the end..and it showed like how Linda developed her feelings for Bosco gradually..so ya..i liked the gradual change..umm..though i like the Boda pair, im kinda glad that there were scenes on other stuff like business & police stuff..as for the ending, pretty much the only thing that's on my mind rite now, well, it wasn't expected..Bosco kinda reminded me of Raymond Wong in BOTTLED PASSION..i honestly don't think either of them would have died if they went to the hospital..but in the case of Bosco, i found it more reasonable b/c Linda's dad told him where Linda was & Linda told Bosco to go find her w/ the helmet & motorcycle once he had room for her in his heart...i liked the flashback part...and in the end, i liked the how both were singing that song..it was such a tragic ending..though im curious about like Linda's life and stuff after she finds out her father's in prison & her 'boyfriend' is dead, i don't think it would really make the drama better..b/c if she turned all sad again, it would b a sad ending..but if she suddenly stood up, people would say it's so unrealistic..and all that..so *sighz*..honestly, i didn't think Bosco needed 2 die..even though they could add in a lot more romantic scenes with Bosco's death..

NEWS
ok..just some major stuff i remember off the top of my head..
- Him Law & Tavia Yeung's Trip to Korea-haha..they said the two were missing from that huge group photo..and when the reporters asked Him Law, he didn't deny it..haha..they're like 7? years apart w/ Tavia being older..but i don't mind them as a couple..haha..well, i liked them in THE HIPPOCRATIC CRUSH :P
- 300-something TVB Artistes Gather for a Group Photo-haha..im not really sure what it was for..but :P..so like u guys kno how usually, the artistes that are more..popular..i guess..are on the right side..ya..well, like Linda moved to the right side..haha..idk..i just saw a comment on that..ya..haha..so like im assuming the 'order' from 'highest to lowest' for the fadans is: Myolie, Fala, Linda, then Kate? well, idk where Tavia would go: before or after Fala? im not really surprised at the positions of the artistes..cuz like no one really said it..but like in the beginning, Linda was above Fala..and then they were kinda the same level..and then now, after the race for TV Queen with Myolie, Fala's like the 2nd highest? haha..idk..of the 5 fadans, i guess Kate & Fala are like more popular..not necessarily amongst the audience..but more like w/ the producers and stuff..cuz they're always casted in like Grand Productions..and they're like really promoted..well, maybe not Kate..but yes for Fala..haha..as for Linda & Tavia, both do well in the 'non grand productions' they still shine..and then Myolie, idk..im still not used to her..like as in she was missing from the TV screen for a while..then she comes back out..and idk..idk how to describe her..but ya..lol..like well, she's always in mainland..idk..lol..but i always think of Kevin Cheng when people mention her..
- WITNESS INSECURITY'S Complaints-it was the one about the cat throwing scene..haha..i thought it was pretty WOW..lol..idk if ive mentioned this topic before..haha..but im 2 lazy to look back..so..why not? lol..anyways..i was surprised..lol...i had to replay it 2 make sure i saw the right thing..lol..but it's not something i would complain about..i mean like i dont hate or like it..it's just..there..lol..im just surprised at TVB's new ways..lol..i actually thought they used a real cat until i read the news..lol..im so stupid..haha..
- Bosco Wong is Forced to Make Way for Kevin Cheng-so im not sure if this is true..but... WITNESS INSECURITY, originally 30 episodes, has been moved to 29...b/c TVB wanted to air GHETTO JUSTICE 2...and they wanted 2 air GHETTO JUSTICE 2 b/c of something like the Olympics affecting the ratings..and they didnt wunna do that to Kevin Cheng..so they just cut out parts from WITNESS INSECURITY..so many of Bosco's dangerous action scenes, scenes that he refused to use a stunts double for, scenes that he insisted on doing himself, scenes that he risked his life for, were cut..ya..at first it didn't seem like a big deal..but then, i saw the part where Bosco's action scenes were cut..and then i felt bad for him..but idk if this is true..im not really clear with the whole TVB has/does not have the right to broadcast the Olympics...lol..idk..
- TRIUMPH IN THE SKIES 2-Press Conference-ok..ya..before the press con., i thought there was still hope for Ronla..but apparently not...so sad :( lol..i watched the video..and ya..the cast didn't seem to have much chem...like Fala sat with Elena..and not Myolie..so it's kinda awkward..also, Francis & Chilam seemed kinda awkward..but Kenneth & Ron were like quite happy & had some chem...like Ron's usually not exactly the life of the party in interviews...haha..but this time, he and Kenneth were..i know this probably isn't going to happen, but i wunna c Myolie & Fala play good friends or sumthing..i just hope the cast develops some chem like ASAP..otherwise, the ratings aren't gunna b too pretty...and the sponsors won't be all that happy either..ya..i just don't want their lack of chemistry to weigh down the drama..lol..i could literally feel the awkwardness when i was watching the video..
STATUS UPDATE

- 4 3 KINGDOMS RPG, it was quite funny in the beginning...like with modern dialogue & lifestyles clashing with ancient dialogue and lifestyles..haha..i liked all those parts where there were modern styles clashing with ancient styles..haha..like Kenneth teaching all the ancient people the modern Hong Kong dialogue..lol..for the singing parts, errr...Kenneth's English isn't all too good..so umm..i'd prefer him singing Chinese songs..haha..wish he sang Raymond's songs..haha..that would b nice..1. he's in the series..2. i like his songs :D haha..also, ive been noticing that Tavia seems more like a supporting character...like even Kenneth has more screentime than Raymond.. well like i kno they say Raymond is the lead of the series..but still..Kenneth is like the point of the story..so ya..also, Kenneth's character, along w/ his friend, 'Fan Gun' are like the only reasons why i watch the series..b/c like theyr funny..i like Tavia & Raymond as artistes..but just not their characters in the drama..b/c they're kinda boring..lol..also, i like Lee Kwok Lun..the guy who plays 'Liu Bei/Zhu Gong' ..he's a nice guy..same w/ his brothers..lol..the 2nd brother, the red one, is quite nice 2..haha..and then the 3rd one, Savio Tsang, lol..he's so impulsive...lol..but in a funny way..haha..i like how he's so loyal to his 1st brother tho..like when it was Raymond's first time leading a battle, at first, no one understood his tactics..and they wanted to start a riot..Savio Tsang didn't agree with Raymond either..but he remembered that his first brother told him to follow Raymond's orders..so he did as he was told..ya..idk..i liked that part..haha..also, Kaki Leung is always playing a sick person/weak person..haha..like in this drama and in E.U...lol..but ya...now, 3 KINGDOMS RPG is getting kinda serious..and ya..it's not all that interesting anymore..haha..btw, why the RPG at the end of 3 KINGDOMS..is it some game thing? haha..idk..
- 4 WITNESS INSECURITY, i wont say much, as i'll have a post on it later..but i really liked it in the beginning..like esp. Linda's character & acting..but as the story progressed and Linda recovered, idk...i liked it better when Linda was still 'sick'..and from the episode that i'm on rite now, Bosco kinda admits that he like Linda..but there was nothing that hinted that he liked her in the beginning..it was kinda all of a sudden to me..haha..but i like the pairing..also, i both like & dont like how Linda's so dependent on Bosco..b/c like if Bosco rejected her, i don't want her to be 'sick' again..but i find it kinda cute when one visit from Bosco just brightens up her whole day..idk if this is a good thing or a bad thing..but the two of them are living in two seperate, different worlds..in Linda's world, money isn't a problem-her dad has lots of it..and her whole world consists of only: her family-her dad, uncle, and sorta her stepmom. +her deceased brother & mom, and then her orchestra & cello, and then her friend-Cilla Kung, her doctor-Queenie Chu, and then her love interest-Bosco-which makes up like 98% of her world...other things dont exist in her world...it's more of like a fairy-tale world..but Bosco, on the other hand, has his colleagues, his superiors, the safety of HK's citizens, his career, his old girlfriend, his family..ya...i didnt list every single member out b/c that would b...a lot...and Bosco like he's more..realistic..like he recognizes the problems and the barriers that exist between him and Linda..haha..it'll be interesting watching the two develop..haha..Linda's so innocent..Linda seems to have a bigger role than Bosco in the drama.. :P..anyways..rooting 4 the couple..haha..i actually liked their pairing since MOONLIGHT RESONANCE..

hey..even though i haven't updated this blog 4 like the past month or so, i've still been reading the news...and here r some of my thoughts on some recent headlines
Sonija Gives Birth to a 6 lbs. Baby Girl
Congrats 2 Sonija and her family!! Her daughter is really cute :D Miss seeing her on TV...used 2 [and still do] love her...she's a good actress with solid foundation..and she has the looks..she can take on any roles too...
Lau Ding Sing's Scandalous Photo Album
ok..that's not really the exact headline..but w/e...i havent really read the articles..but it's just when im scrolling down, i happen to see the headlines..and i read some of the comments and stuff..ok..i dont have anything against homosexuals..but err...this just kinda grossed me out..anyways..not the point..the point is, he's ruining the careers of many rising stars...[esp. Him Law] he's like #1 on the list...and he's not stopping...many artistes have been trying to build up both their career and their reputation for many years..but with one mistake, they can lose everything they've ever worked for...it's kinda like a life lesson.. anyways, i dont really care if the male artistes took the photos or anything...b/c it's not like im going 2 become friends or anything with them...im just here to see them act...i mean if one of my friends did it or anything, i would find it gross i guess...but i dont really care if the artistes did it....maybe they weren't thinking at the moment..but my point is, everyone makes mistakes..forgive and forget...
TRIUMPH IN THE SKIES 2
ok..i read the news article, and i didnt really learn anything..b/c most of the stuff was like repeated from previous articles...except for the fact that Sammul Chan MAY come back 4 TRIUMPH IN THE SKIES 2..not sure yet...anyways..idk if i've said this b4..but Bosco & Raymond won't be filming it due 2 schedule conflicts...and i think Flora Chan will be in it..along with Chilam and Francis...though it may not be beneficial to the artistes, i would have actually liked the cast to be: Flora, Francis, Chilam, Myolie, Fala, Raymond, Bosco, Kate, Ron, Kenneth, Rebecca, etc...all artistes would have reduced screentime, but it would really be a grand production...w/ a grand cast :) unfortunately, that wont happen..but o well...more screentime for Ron..it's not that i favor him over the other artistes or anything..just that his popularity kinda declined...and really want him to make a 'comeback' and be back up there with Bosco and Raymond :D
Otto Chan's Proposal
lol..honestly, i wouldn't have talked about this b/c he's not one of those really popular artistes..but really liked his role in GLOVES COME OFF...so :P congrats 2 him..the wedding is in October with Tisha Law, Law Lok Lam's daughter...never seen her before..but congrats :)
Jason Chan Leads in New Series with Linda Chung
I think it's the sumthing Ferris Wheel drama...not really sure..but wow..that was kind of an all of a sudden thing...he went from lead in sitcoms to lead in an actual series...it just kinda surprised me b/c he didn't really go through the 'supporting actor' role yet..so i think he's being promoted a little 2 fast...but then again, the series isn't really like a grand production and the only first line artiste is Linda...so im guessing the series will be focused on Linda 90% of the time..also, i think Raymond Lam's cousin is in the series..I think...i think [judging from pictures], that they both fight for Jason Chan in the series..lol..to be honest, Jason Chan was once one of my 'obsessions'..lol..and he has the looks...when i watched BE HOME FOR DINNER..lol..only like the first 4 episodes..well, he's given the opportunity..and not many artistes get that..so hope he cherishes this chance and gives the audience a good performance..even though he hasn't ever lead in a series before, i think he has the ability to :) good luck to him!
Linda Chung's Groaning in HOUSE OF HARMONY AND VENGEANCE
i happened to watch this scene...and honestly, i was like 'OMG...so nooottt 'Linda'...lol..well, i just found it different from her other roles..kinda a minor breakthrough for her...i guess..but it was well done..she acted it out well...lol..though it was kinda like..awkward watching it..lol..i was like 'umm..ok..how long is this scene going to last o.O,' i was still able to see her good acting skill...in the parts i've watched so far, i find Linda's character more prominent in the series..compared to Myolie's...but then, it's just the role that they've given her..so it's not Myolie's fault...anyways, im not sure if the 'Netizens' comments were considered positive or negative...but i really don't find anything wrong with that scene..lol..except for the awkwardness..but that's not the point...well done, Linda :D

STEVEN MA & HIS 'SIBLINGS'
Steven Ma is a singer turned artist, who entered TVB 19 years ago. Eventually, Steven reached up top becoming one of the first line TVB Siu Sangs and has filmed countless series over the years, but didn't really have rumors. He has a deep relationship with the three FaDans Tavia Yeung, Fala Chen and Linda Chung. Due to having rich life experiences, Steven often coaches the three girls and unconsciously took on the role as their Big Brother.Steven: Over the years that I've been with TVB, aside from my three god-sisters Tavia, Fala and Linda, many other artists including Kenneth Ma calls me 'Big Brother'. However, I get along most with Linda, Fala and Tavia, we have collaborated the most and have the most fate. When I first met Linda, it was in 2004 when she was shooting her first series, Virtues of Harmony, she played a couple with me. In 2007, Fala played my little sister in Steps and in 2009 Tavia collaborated with me in Sweetness in the Salt, where we played a couple and started getting more familiar.
A Good Listener who can keep secrets
Steven: Although we never formally became god-siblings, we have a very good relationship. We often chat and I'm more than willing to help resolve any problems they might have. I admit that I am very good at keeping secrets. Whenever they have something to tell me, I will just sit back and listen. Even if I do give them advice, I would turn around and forget it. Once my little sisters finishes venting, then they'll be ok! And whenever there are things they want me to help deal with, I would really put out my heart to help them. I believe it is because of this that they were able to put down their guards towards me. Earlier on my birthday, my three sisters came to celebrate with me too!
Steven: I've once said to them, if they ever encounter someone bullying them, then must speak up. I won't let anyone bully my sisters! Although I'm not a martial artist, I will help as much as my capability allows me to. I will pursue justice without any second thoughts and just go help them. This is my promise to them! Aside from my beautiful god-sisters, I actually have three good brothers too: Evergreen Mak, Dexter Young and Lam King Kong. We have known each other for a long time and often hang out. They slowly became like family.
Steven: Evergreen and I have a deep relationship, which started when we did 2002's Where the Legend Begins together. Dexter got married in July, and of course he invited me to his wedding. That time I was shooting in Mainland, but I made time on my schedule to come back for his wedding no matter what it took. As for Lam King Kong, I also have a deep relationship with him. Our relationship may not be known by all, but people in the industry always say"there is no true relationships in showbiz", I think we broke through this saying. It's just that those people who says that, haven't encountered a true friend yet or perhaps they aren't willing to put their heart out to communicate with others. In fact, artists may not necessarily be 'fake' people!"

STEVEN MA@LINDA CHUNG
VIRTUES OF HARMONY 2
Linda: In Virtues of Harmony 2, there were many good teachers teaching me how to act. I recall this one scene about (Michelle) Hung Bak Lam having a terminal disease so she thought of ways to make Ivan Sze Gee San (Steven Ma) leave her. When she went to the airport to send Ivan off, Steven told me to show my side profile first then slowly turn around toward him and cry, the outcome would be that much more effective. Even now I still continue using this crying method Steven taught me.
Steven: This is Linda’s first series, I thought this woman was very pretty, and a bit shy, very well-behaved (guai) and ingenuous. During that time, I constantly had lunch with her to chitchat so that she would be more relax. I recall saying this to her: “This field is not all that complex. But opportunity always exists for one to turn bad. So in everything must put in efforts to learn from it. The most important thing is not to go down the wrong path. To this day, she still manages to do that, and is also still a good woman.(guai nui)
A JOURNEY CALLED LIFE
Linda: During this period I was at low tide, also the period my homesickness was really intense. I am very grateful having Steven constantly encouraging me and putting up with me. In this series, I portrayed a wet miu. (party girl(?)) with lots of family problems. Also had a stillborn scene. The script closely relates to real life. Can be said among Steven and my collaborated works to be my most favorite and satisfied one.
Steven: She has matured, her acting skill has also improved, especially her emoting feelings has improved enormously. Our collaborations are mostly small productions, this series is no exception. The story content emulates real life's happenings. It talks about us being husband and wife. It was our second collaboration, but our relationship seems to have gone a notch up, more like brother and sister. To this day, she still calls me ‘gor gor’.
A WATCHDOG'S TALE
Linda: This series let me see the other side of Steven. I did not expect that shod in flip-flops he could be so uncouth (ma lat) totally departed from his normal refined and polite image. And since this is a comedy, during the shooting my mood was not too heavy.
Steven: We officially filmed a comedy series, laughter was constant. Also, our characters underwent a big change. I was crude and slovenly, a total uncouth man (malat zai). While she had on this short hair wig to portray a tomboy. Totally a Wu Jun lookalike. Haha! This series increased our tacit understanding of each other. I recall during the shooting, I commented that no series could possibly pose a problem to us because we already knew each other’s strengths and weaknesses so could mutually compensate each other’s deficiency.
GHOST WRITER
GHOST WRITER
Linda: During VOH2's filming I was a rather cheerful woman, but during Ghost Writer's filming it can be said that I fell to the lowest pit. The years within the entertainment circle was like a rubber band tightening around me; it finally snapped during this period. I realized I was not suited for an entertainment lifestyle plus I didn’t have my family in Hong Kong. I was depressed. Plus I suffered constant insomnia. And had bad skin. I knew that Steven at seeing me thus was worried but did not know what to do so kept his silence, staying by my side quietly supporting me. Fortunately, now, on the whole, I have re-adapted to this lifestyle. I try to do more stuff that I enjoy. Also know how to better communicate with friends and to share my concerns, so can gradually cross over deep pits. During Daddy Good Deeds’ shooting, Steven finally saw that I had become more and more sanguine. I’m very grateful to this good brother of mine who has always stood by me and supported me.
Steven: During this period Linda had serious insomnia, very edgy all the time, and her skin was bad too. Plus the character in the series endured many grievances so that affected her moods too. Could see that it was a tough period for her. I was concerned for her. At the time, I constantly urged her to take rests, to do exercise because besides relieving stress, it can also affect the spirit. After that, we filmed our own separate series, but we still kept in touch and I knew her situation underwent a positive turnaround. During Daddy Good Deeds, she seemed much more happier. At the last (DGD promo), she told me that she do aerobics once every week to keep fit. She seems to be in good spirits. I’m happy for her, and also feel more at ease (on lok) about her.
'Draw Something'
Linda: Steven is my good brother, who has witnessed my up and down moods since I entered the industry. He has stayed by my side the whole time. Even though he has now left the company I still hope that Steven, who has not only accompanied me throughout my growth but is also a good partner who worked well with me, can return to my side to continue making more good series.

Even though he has now left the company I still hope that Steven, who has not only accompanied me throughout my growth but is also a good partner who worked well with me, can return to my side to continue making more good series.
Steven: There was this one scene that was shot at a jewelry store. During the break Linda was taken by a butterfly pendant and so for the first time in her life she bought a diamond pendant. She said she loves butterflies a lot and that whenever she sees one she would be very happy. I remember what she said, so today I especially drew a butterfly to make her happy.
Urged repeatedly to maintain a pure heart
Steven: I know Linda the longest, but she is actually the one I'm most worried about. One time, she messaged me on Weibo and told me that she's a big girl, but I am still worried because Linda is too naive, too simple and can easily get bullied! It's fine working at TVB, a 'greenhouse' that provides maximum protection, but if she were to head out to work elsewhere, then it will be difficult. I watched Linda come into this industry back then. One day we were having a meal together, and I urged her whatever she learns to do, do not learn to be bad, don't do 'dirty' things. Must maintain a pure heart. Linda has been able to do this all along, and has been improving on her acting. I am very grateful. Perhaps, I am used to looking after my siblings at home, so my words may sound a little old-fashioned and feel like a father, but I am fortunate to have found three sisters that I could respect and love, and vice versa!
Steven Ma: TVB should do some self-reflection.
The male lead in PSL (Ghost Writer) and also Linda’s most collaborated partner-in-crime and good friend, Steven Ma revealed that witnessing her tearful break down distressed him. “The main reason was due to exhaustion from over work. Too tiring! She’s always been very anxious about her work performance; she had to film series, cut records, and film movies at the same time; always insisted in doing them all perfectly. So bringing on constant insomnia. Her mother wasn’t here in Hong Kong, so I made Ching pu leung herbal tea and watercress soup for her, and also constantly chatted with her. But the most important thing is for her to get some rest….” Linda by nature is pliant so did not dare demur when given series projects to do.
Steven entreated: “TVB really needs to re-examine her workload arrangement! Although she is a tvb managed artiste but still management needs to properly plan her workload. Piling her with a heavy workload and having her doing it all is not necessarily a good thing. She has to be able to handle it. Have to see if 'xiu pang yao' (young friend) can even breathe first? Even if she can do it, she won’t look good (leng), and her voice won’t sound good either! Sooner or later, she will be wrung dried, her health neglected.”

DADDY GOOD DEEDS-THOUGHTS
I didn't really have any expectations for this drama..but i think it's pretty good..[TVB's airing their dramas pretty quickly..I remember when this drama was still in production]
Linda's Break Up Scene-I like how she only cried like once and then they turned the break up scene in2 a comedic scene by messing up Linda's hair and stuff like that..
The Rhymes-Some people don't like it..but I don't mind it..It's kinda like Can't Buy Me Love
'Gay' Edwin-lol...i like his name..'ah Yap'...lol..i loved when they thought he was gay..lol..he would make soup and stuff for Steven & his dad..& he would mend their socks..& do their laundry..lol..& he walked around in his tank top & boxers & shook his butt and stuff...lol..ya..so Steven thought he was gay [after Linda told him] & then one night, Edwin climbed onto Steven's bed [b/c Steven's A/C was on..& he wanted 2 save electricity]..& then Steven woke up & found Edwin next 2 him..& so he kicked him off the bed..lol..& then Edwin was like 'Honey..Honey!' & running back on2 the bed..lol..it was like the best scene..but turns out Edwin was looking for his doll [he calls it 'Honey']
The Singing Competition/Show-I like how the girl Cilla worked for [as her assistant] like they made her look so old and stuff..anyways..back to the singing competition/show..I like how when they were training Cilla, Cilla's whole family looked so scared & stuff [b/c her singing was so bad]..lol..i loved the look on Ha Yu & Linda's face...lol..also loved how Edwin danced 2 his 2 songs...lol..during the show/competition, i like how most of them sang TVB's dramas' themesongs..it's nice knowing the song..lol..i liked how the male judge just smiled & repeated what the other 2 judges said..lol....but the part where Cilla lost & she thanked her family was so touching..I cried during that part ;'( well, it was partly b/c of the music 2..music has a big effect..
Linda's Improvement-I think Linda's acting is improving even more...now..like she makes her lines seem natural..and i don't know what some of those rhyming phrases mean...but she just makes it seem so natural..and she's from Canada...so just thought that was really good...& she's actually pretty good at comedies..like she uses the correct tone of voice to say different things and stuff...after all, i think comedies ARE pretty hard 2 grasp..
