牛肉面店老板

I finished "Women in Tapei" (台湾女子图鉴) in December. There was a character in the earlier episodes, when the main character first got to Taiwan. She met a young man who is the owner of a beef noodle shop, and they started dating.

She however in the next episode, decided that she didn't want this, as the man was content with being a beef noodle shop owner for the rest of his life. This was therefore her "life" if she chose it.

She left him a note, “你很好，我们不合适，我们要的不一样” (You're great, we're not compatible, we don't want the same thing). After that, she had an internal dialogue “对不起，我想要的更多” (I'm sorry, I want more). More than what he can offer.

Well...

Congrats, I saw you got the CPA.

Happy birthday to you.

Summer and Fall

我不是流言 不能猜测你

疯狂的游戏 需要谁准许 

别人怎么说 我都不介意

我爱不爱你 日久见人心

爱久见人心 - 梁静茹 

下雨只不过 有谁为你刚哭过 

孤独只不过 一人走一段缓坡 

成熟只不过 等一切都不假思索 

心偶尔执着 在过于喧嚣的场所

在青春迷失的咖啡馆 - 王心凌

我好吗 有谁能倾听 有谁会同情 

独自等雨过天晴 等不回当时 拥抱的激情 

我很好 说给昨天听 跟今天一言为定 

换一张明天的风景 自己和自己同行

我好吗 - 梁静茹

Summer has come and gone. Fall has almost come and gone.

Wish everyone's operations are successful, focus.

When I'm feeling it, I should translate the above songs.

龙年

家人, 团聚. 重要.

但是在这时候, 我想人了.

说好了, 不打扰, 不复杂.


新年大家快乐!

妈妈好多了, 手术很成功, 恢复当中. 我在身边, 她开心, 我也开心.

定点 | 动点

我已经很累了。累的是精疲，不是力尽。

我意识这次的严重性，但是我可能不想去面对坏的打算。
我知道，这是不能避免的担忧。

明天不是我的重大日子，但是我可能会因此而决定许多的事情。


不管怎样，我知道我必须勇敢。
所以，妈妈，你明天加油！儿子不能在你的身旁，但我会给你鼓励，勇气。

你会一切都好的！

Pardon from my regular programming.

2011

There's so much to say, yet...


Thank you.


I have much catching up to do for 2012.

上海话 Shanghainese

23

老爸：

“生日快乐！23岁了！明年将又是龙年了，生日时在想点什么吗！”

我：

"老爸，

我在想，想未来，想工作，想阿娘，想你，想妈，想某个人，想我现在还能做点什么来更进步自己，想怎么努力去争取我要的，想我应该怎么更好的对待人与事物。
想时间快不算快，慢不算慢。 

还在想呢。别的，不知道怎么说了。

小宇”

If 4 months ago, someone told me the current me would be reading books, running regularly, playing fitness games instead of actual games and doing something I thought I would never do again I would've told him he was crazy.

Yet here I am, after a whirlwind of everything, I did all of the above.

Thank you

Random Blurt

1. A person can be motivated, can be pushed. But they cannot be told what they can do and what they cannot do. It is up to the person him/herself to find out.

2. I hate being sick. I should stop eating what my mum feeds me. Splitting headache and grumbling stomach ongoing.

3. A song in your iPod might not mean anything when you added it to the music library, but a few years down the road the song comes on and you feel exactly what the song is singing.

4. Macs are hard to use. I know, I'm typing this on a Mac now.

5. I can't believe how much I changed, even just 2 months ago. I am motivated.

6. To miss someone is _______

Something to think about...

在医疗中心的我, 看过许多许多病人的毛病.

轻微的是脚扭伤, 伤风感冒, 肌肉酸痛.
配一点药, 涂一些药膏就好了.

偶尔有个脊椎脱位, 应力性骨折(stress fracture), 肌肉拉伤较严重的.
顶多动个危险性较低的手术就能复原或减轻症兆的, 或者不去做那些刺激那部位的行动就好了.

最后的那么几个... 在做化疗, 或者座着轮椅进来的, 或者本人来不了了.

这些我都ok, 因为我不认识他们. 没有与他们上过班, 吃过饭...

但是这次... 有点太近了.

I feel like JD in that Scrubs episode about Ben.
I hope its wrong, I want it to be wrong.

有时候想想, 会不会太扯了吧.


还是好好照顾自己的身体啊.

中秋

I don't understand, is everything so coincidental?

Today would mark 1 year that I'm here. Still have one more year to go.One more year.

Tomorrow, would be a day that, if gone well, would be one of the happiest days in this period.
If not well, that's what I'm preparing for now.

Today is also 中秋. Happy 中秋节! I talked to both of my parents, my grandma was... well, relatively healthy. I wished Chester happy 中秋, since we were on the same side of the globe for once.

Today is ... well, one of the days. It is nagging at me. I can't shake this feeling.
Got better after the walk... but ...

2010

Procrastination sets in. I wanted to write this sooner, but things or laziness always gets in the way.

2010 came and gone.

I graduated.

I moved back to a place I was familiar with. But it wasn't all that familiar in the end.

Life moves on. Still a lot more time left to go.

Some thoughts v 2.0

A lot of great things have been happening to friends these days.

Matt got a whole lot of options for his grad programs, Queens, Western, UofT, UBC.
Sanka finally got a job after hobo-ing in Vancouver for a while. Along the way proving himself right to his parents... (That or the fact that Vancouver doesn't have a lot of financial jobs, nevertheless)

It's great to see how they are moving on with their lives. Close friends all have some form of closure, some form of starting their journey.

I'm happy for them. :)

Recently just been tired.

Graphics was a lot more work than I bargained for. I had help from very very smart friends.

Other than that, well...

2009

2009年:
你21了.
你去了一个你想去的地方.
你感受了亲情.
你回到了你的童年.
你单独旅行了.
你co-op结束了.

你工作时不认真, 做功课时开小差.
你想过自己的方向, 自己的未来.

你闪躲, 你逃避.

你没有控制自己.
你心痛, 也安慰朋友的心痛.
你开始懂了.

你结识了朋友.
你与好朋友分享快乐.

你哭, 你笑.


你不想多说话.



2010:
?

我不是一个写resolution的人. 有时候写了觉得是自己骗自己. 只要自己心里知道该怎么做就可以了.

粉雪

"Can I get a ticket to Toronto please?"
"Sure, one way or return?"
"...... ermm ...... one way please"


那就是我这学期的开始. 我并不想走. 工作上的需求. 搬也只好搬. 那时的我, 背着电脑, 拉着一个借来的行李箱. 坐上了greyhound. 我不舍, 我想在走之前... 呵呵 我的运气不是那么的好.

那 时去还是很顺利的, greyhound到dundas, 换subway到scarborough, 我本来只来过scarborough一次, 是06年tommy生日的时候来的. (ah, simpler times) 我住的地方里的家对我很好, 吃的住的都有了.

第一夜, 听着歌睡着的. waiter一直在我身边, 没离开过.

星期日到的, 星期一就要上班了. 那天起的好早, 好像5点45分就醒了. 不知道什么是business casual的我磨蹭了半天. 弄出一个自己觉得ok的attire. 现在想想还是太正式了吧.

工作很好, 开始我不太适应downtown的工作环境, 人好多, 又忙来忙去的. 好像都有重要事情在身. 还好有我同事帮我适应. 在一个礼拜就把email啊, 什么的都搞定了.

别人都说我疯了, 一个人在nathan phillip square countdown. 我可能是疯了, 看着烟火, 我对它没有感觉. 这可能是我最后一次能看烟火了吧.

在 这段时间里, 我真的很幸运, 能够有好朋友在旁撑着. 老实说, 我没有预想到能结识一个这么好的朋友. 能什么话题都能聊的人. 到这只能说谢谢谢谢 (还有就是8888的红包... :S sigh) Xinyi, Chester, Jing, 都帮了我好多好多. 这学期我能撑下去, 我真的非常感谢他们.

在多伦多发现了好多事情, 接触了许许多多的新鲜事. 呵呵, 第一次TTC坏掉的时候我好像是在车上唯一一个在傻笑的人吧. 我知道了TTC bus route是怎么走的, 知道了大路大概在哪里. 知道了downtown怎么走, 哪里有吃的, 哪里能买东西. 知道了pmall原来是在steeles上.

突然觉得我好笨啊.


这四个月.... 也就这样的结束了.


"Hi, can I get a ticket to Waterloo University please."
"Oh, one way please."



考试工作加油 :)
