Jessica was either having impossible targets or characteristics that didn’t work well with marriage as the reason to her not finding her prince charming. Jessica still believed that those who work out are fated and she would not impose a character change to suit her dream of getting married. If she’s not fated, she would still feel fortunate for being able to choose and would live alone happily.

Witnessing the marriage of many female colleagues, Jessica admitted that she once had the desire to get married quickly. Even though there was no lack of suitors, Jessica still remained single. She smiled, “Many guys would prefer girls like the ‘damsel in distress’ but I believe that there would be someone who like my independence. I had the urge to get married immediately once and was nonchalant about it at another instance in time. I have had several female friends who had bad experiences in their marriages. I am fortunate that I am given a choice. Actually, I do not set high standards and only wish for somebody who can communicate with me and I have the ‘feel’ towards. I would not look at his financial state. Haha! I would have been married if I had looked at the money only!”

Jessica also mentioned, “I have confidence that I will meet my prince charming but I am also mentally prepared that I may be unable to find one. I am not very worried about it. It would be sweet if I could share my experiences with another person. On side consideration, he would also be able to take care of me. I would not be rushing it and did not set any deadline for it. I would leave it as per normal. Since young, I would never plan for the future fir my work and relationship. When everybody else are planning for their future when I was still schooling, I didn’t put too much thought into it.”

Many people felt that their happiness diminish as they aged. Jessica felt that everyone would experience so as things would get more complicated as people grew up. Hence, there would be more troubles. She felt that we need to be more optimistic. She asserted, “I went along with my heart for the first 20 years of my life and would be unhappy whenever I was encountered with troubles. After I had sorted out my thoughts, I found out that the presence of unhappiness is to emphasize the value of happiness. I would face a problem with optimism and hope that everything would be better.”

Last year Kevin Cheng went to Charmaine Sheh's house in Sai Kung during the Typhoon Signal 8 and was caught by reporters. Afterwards he stopped all contact with Niki Chow who he was dating for 4 years. There were rumors that claimed Charmaine disliked Kevin's boring personality and therefore they brokeup. Both of them collobarated again for the new series "Beyond the Realm of Conscience". Charmaine was captured by reporters in Kevin's car while heading back to Sai Kung. In addition, she also stated that every relationship starts from friendships. Hinting that they both have the opportunity to develop their relationship.

Since Kevin was with Charmaine, his healthy image had been ruined. Instead, Niki Chow became the victim in the love triangle. This not only helped Niki increase image points but she gained more work opportunities.

Earlier Niki signed a deal with Chung Yuen Electrical Co and became their spokesperson, earning a 7 digit figure. She changed her jade girl look by appearing with a explosive hairstyle and pants revealing her waist while shooting the advert.

Boss Canny Leung Supports Niki

In 2004, Niki and Kevin filmed TVB series "Hard Fate" and were rumored together. In 2006 while filming "Under the Canopy of Love" they were made as an onscreen couple. Last year, Charmaine and Kevin got together while shooting "Forensic Heroes II". Kevin immediately dumped Niki who he had been dating for 4 years. As for Charmaine she also stopped seeing Ron Ng who often went clubbing with her.

Niki who was hugely affected by this always avoided talking about Kevin and Charmaine. But her elder sister Kathy often scolded Kevin. Her intention was for Niki to be cautious meeting people. Niki's boss Canny Leung also supported Niki on her blog.

Canny Leung could see that Niki was mistreated and could only advise Niki to do her best at work. Since last year, the company has found many Big Brand names for Niki to advertise, as well as going to Mainland to film a TV series. She is classed as one of BMA's highest earners. During the start of the year Niki also became a property owner.

Yesterday Kate Tsui accepted an interview on CRHK, she spoke about her experience since entering the entertainment industry. Kate said that she loved to dance since young, when she was young she learned how to do chinese dances. All along, Tsui Mommy has been training her on this talent she has. Kate frankly said that her mom is the person who influenced her the most, during the interview Kate picked a song "Your Eyes" (你的眼神) to thank her.

About how she ended up participating in Miss Hong Kong, she said that a friend suggested it to her, couldn't believe that she was able to win. She expressed that she had no intention in going into this career because in usual days she never really liked make-up and dressing up. Being able to win the competition was probably because of her self-confidence. Kate also has talent in linguistics, back in college (in the U.S.) it was her major. She would listen to english songs to learn english, like "Can't Buy Me Love" by the Beetles. She used that song to learn most of her english. Kate also said that when she was in studying in the States, she learned Latin dance too, making it something useful in her life.

This incident also caused pain to Kevin's ex girlfriend Niki Chow. Despite Kevin and Charmaine's relationship becoming a public secret, both of them have always denied it. Also in order to avoid being captured intimately together both of them changed their dating destination overseas.

A lot to Expose in the Interview

Kevin and Charmaine went on a trip to date so that things would go smoothly and they could be warm and affectionate. However a day ago Erica Yuen suddenly exposed front the start of the magazine interview that her friend had bumped into the rumored couple in Maldives and were dating.

3Weekly Magazine phoned Erica on Tuesday 14th to find out more about it. Unexpectedly she said "I don't want to talk about it now." After the reporter asked a number of questions she replied "My friend only saw them in Singapore and they were taking a flight to Maldives together." Afterwards she said she will not talk about it any further unless she is doing a magazine interview."

More Proof

However, in issue 496 of 3weekly, Charmaine and Kevin's trip was also revealed but without hinting names.

Raymond's First Concert at the Hong Kong Coliseum

Raymond's first concert will be held in June at the Hong Kong Coliseum. He revealed that he's just had his concert promotional poster taken.

[For this concert, there will be some sexy elements in the concert to match the theme. I have just started on some fitness training but the most challenging part is remembering lyrics. I'm most worried about forgetting the lyrics. Another thing that worries me is issues as to whether I'm able to complete the filming of the new series, as it would certainly interfere with my rehearsal sessions and other preparations for the concert. Things are all cramped up in the same month].

Raymond was asked how he feels about his very first concert.

[I feel very nervous, even my "brothers" (in TVB) also got a shocked when they know that I will be holding a concert in June. I just hope all goes well].

When she was in primary school, Myolie was studying in 柏 德 學 校. Everyday she will walk to school. "My school is in 下邨, 阿 嫲 stays on the 10th block, so i played at 下邨 all the time.Every long weekend, when i go to school on saturday morning, i will pass the streets, and there is this hawker that sells beef, and there is also an ox head that doesn't have skin but has eyes. I was very afraid of it when i was young, everytime i passed by it, i will pretend to not see it!" Didn't know that Myolie's memory of the place has more scary memories. "聖 馬 太 junior school has this big field, every time,during the 7th Month, there will be a ceremony held that. Many times, i will also go and look at the various programs there. I was very afraid but yet wanted to pull my sister along to watch it."

Last year, before the school relocated, Myolie specially went back to visit her teachers and old friends. " When i went back, the environment was still similar to the past, but everything seems to have shrunk in size! The water cooler that i always drank from in the past, has also shrunk in size! I remember that there was this classmate called, 林祥 發. There is a tailor shop next to the field, which belongs to her family. When i went back there the last time, i did specially go back there to find her." 林 祥 發, do u still remember ur schoolmate, Myolie Wu?

Steamed vermicelli roll..." That morning, Myolie specially went to have her meal at '興 記'. "The taste didn't change, the environment is similar too, everytime is quite old. One new thing is the air con."

Last year, Myolie specially went there to eat what she used to eat almost everyday.

After school, Myolie really loves going to eat chicken chop and fishball.食打冷， 韭菜豬紅 ,蠔餅,

Night

" Usually we will go as a family to have dinner together. I remember that there was one near the field, orange doors, and there is a second storey to it. My whole family will be there to eat 潮 州 Noodles, etc. "

After returning to the classrooms, "many things seem to be the same as the previous years. "

Visiting her old school, "That year's teacher and form teacher still knows i am!"

Cheung recorded a Buddhist song yesterday. He felt honored to sing the song and hopes that this song will hold its place among Buddhist music. Chilam felt that his two-year-old son, Morton, has Buddhist inclinations. “Last year, I brought home Buddhist scriptures written in Sanskrit by His Holiness the Gyalwa Karmapa from India. I was stunned to see little Morton bow several times before the scriptures. Perhaps he has an affinity for Buddhism. I hope he will grow up to be a good person. When he is older, I will take him to India for pilgrimage."

While visiting India, Chi Lam went to see the Bodhi tree [a direct descendent of the sacred fig tree] where Siddhartha Gautama became enlightened as the Buddha. It was memorable moment for Chilam.

Did Chilam let Morton listen to Buddhist songs? Chilam laughed, "For the time being , Morton listens mainly to children’s songs. However, he has heard my songs and will recognize which songs are sung by his father.”

How are Morton’s singing skills? “Not very good.” Who does Morton resemble? “Morton is like me. He possesses my sense of humor and cheerful personality, which are important qualities."

Chapman To Man Chak has been a Buddhist since he was a youth. His Buddhist name is “Karma Dawa.” Last year, his wife converted to Buddhism as well. Since becoming a Buddhist, did this temper Chapman’s temper? "Yes, it’s been a good change. In the past, I often concentrated on the shortcomings of people. But Buddhism has helped me to focus on people’s positive traits.” Did Chapman consider becoming a monk in the short-term? “Of course! If I had the opportunity practice [enlightenment] behind closed doors, that would be even better.”
