About Me

My name is Edith Chan. I am a designer and illustrator based in Seattle, USA. I love dreaming, writing and drawing. Pencils and paint brushes are my magical wands giving my imaginations form. I was born and brought up in Macao, the first and the last European colony in China. Living in Macau gave me the opportunity to explore western and eastern arts. I have spent most of my life in this little city, until 2007 I moved to the United States and started this blog to document my adventure in America. You don’t have to be a Blogger or Google member to leave comments. Please take a moment to let me know you were here. Thank you and have a beautiful day!

I Don't Care

"I don't care!" 是我第一個美國人老細的口頭禪。初初跟他打工時覺得他很奇怪,他的做事方式跟中國的完全不同,從來不愛管下屬怎樣做事、不愛跟同事和上司打好關係、不會OT、放假關電話、放工和放假時從來不會理公事。無論我犯了什麼錯,無論有什麼突發事件,無論公司的業職好不好,無論大老板有多大的急事要找他,他的答案永遠都是"I don't care!"。多麼瀟灑的一句"I don't care!",別人說我跟着這個無出色的老細,恐怕在這間公司會命不久巳。但他郤不知恁地升職好像坐直昇機那般快,短短二年由一個Director變成Senior VP of Operations。直到現在我仍然弄不清楚,究竟他是真傻,還是故意保留實力。

現在在美國親身體驗到異地文化,我開始明白他所說的"I don't care"。 美國人生性爽快直接,不愛拘泥於繁文縟節。他們喜歡無拘無束的生活,喜歡穿輕便服裝、隨便坐在地上、隨街吃東西、跟陌生撘訕.......為之所慾之,言之所慾之,凡事問心不需要理會別人的眼光,來了美國幾個月,我也愛上了"I don't care."這句話。所謂庸人自擾之,世上有太多人因為在乎一些跟本不重要的東西,而忘記了生活的本質性意義。
