Expertise:
O, reason not the need: our basest beggars
Are in the poorest thing superfluous:
Allow not nature more than nature needs,
Man's life's as cheap as beast's: thou art a lady;
If only to go warm were gorgeous,
Why, nature needs not what thou gorgeous wear'st,
Which scarcely keeps thee warm. But, for true need,
You heavens, give me that patience, patience I need!
You see me here, you gods, a poor old man,
As full of grief as age; wretched in both!
If it be you that stir these daughters' hearts
Against their father, fool me not so much
To bear it tamely; touch me with noble anger,
And let not women's weapons, water-drops,
Stain my man's cheeks!

    生活不是電影,生活比電影苦.對於處在多事之秋的中國人民而言,體會再深刻不過了.誰都料想不到,這是如此艱難的一年,災難接踵而至,我們期待著08年的喜慶與歡樂卻為一路而來的障礙所阻隔.年初的暴風雪,騷亂,後來的膠濟鐵路火車相撞,現在的四川地震...一個比一個更為劇烈,一次又一次考驗著中國人民 所能承受的極限.

    看了很多地震報導的文字與視頻,眼睛有些生疼.慘狀歷歷在目,痛苦持久蔓延.大自然破壞的能力永遠是我們無 法想像得到的.不斷攀升的死亡人數也遠比電影中動輒就讓無辜的路人甲像徵性的死亡來得更加刺眼.在網絡上看到很多感動的事蹟,也看到很多醜陋的爭論,甚至有人用國難來進行行騙,實在讓人不齒.國難當前,我們期待不了什麼電影中的英雄的出現,只有國人風雨同舟,團結一致,才是最終勝利的途徑.

    原來所有的繭都是自己所賦於的,如果一切都可以放開,放開,就像撒在風中的浮塵,然後任風來去,那麼繭是否真的能化成蛾,長出飛翼,朝黑暗中的燈火撲去, 不計一切得失,不計一切後果,然後用自己的粉碎,賦於風的生命。風中,便有無數的重影,每一個影子都映出風在吶喊與哭泣。


       
黑夜裡,在夜的深邃與迷茫中,彷彿看到那個自己,看到那個已走遠的自己,遠遠地,遠遠地,在忽明忽暗的樹影中徘徊,猶豫。如若那柳下的花影,在斑駁的月光下搖曳,那必定是哪朵花神從天上下凡,下凡到人間體味喜怒哀樂。如若,真的能與那個走遠了的自己相逢重遇,也許便能聽到月的息,在幽黑的夜里長籲,那 時,也許能喚醒大地,讓一切平安,寧靜。


       
對於一些苦難,語言便是蒼白與乏力,淚水亦是輕薄與 凝重,很多時候,當我們無法用語言來形容,當我們無法僅僅是用語言與行動便能表達心中的意緒,那種感覺是一種接近無力與挫敗,那時你會發現,在遠遠的,在與苦難遠離著的我們,是那樣的無能為力,甚至連一滴輕輕的淚水都無法承受,這些,對那些真正的苦難而言是多麼的淺薄,甚至在這個安寧的時刻,我都在為這一 刻的寧靜不安。


       
許多的語言,當無法表達卻凝聚在內心的時候,腦海中便會不斷的翻騰那些瞬間,一個個灰色的面孔,一雙雙泥濘的雙手,慌恐的眼神,還有停息的生命與掙扎著的生命。
       
我在這尚好的屋子裡想那遙遠寂靜的廢墟中的呻吟,想那些生命在隔絕了的泥石裡掙扎,苦痛。我想,我感受的痛是多麼的微乎其微。只是我還能做些什麼,我僅僅只是以我微薄之力去捐助,然後在遙遠的地方祈福,祈禱災難從此停止。


       
如若真的有神靈,如若真的所有的祈願能暗暗地匯合成一種力量到達遙遠的地方,到達那些生命痛苦掙扎的地方給生命以勇氣和希望。如若真的能,可是即便真的不能,可我面對這些災難的時候,彷彿真的除了祈福之外,還是祈福。


       
當那些生命在逐漸地微弱與消逝的時候,我為我還能安然地活著而慶幸,我在遙遠的地方卻感受著那些面臨著死亡的恐懼,可是當那麼多生命在一起恐懼與苦痛的時 候,我能做點什麼呢?我在遙遠的地方流著滾燙的淚水看他們掙扎與消逝,甚至看災難一次又一次的震盪。而我只能為他們祈禱為他們捐獻微薄的力量。


       
安祥著的我們,也許真的所能做的不多,只是我們可以珍惜生命,珍惜每一分每一秒的活著,為那些正在延續的苦痛與生命的逝去,當我們還能安然的活著,甚至哭 泣的時候,我們所能做的很少很少,可是我們還可以做的更多更多,那便是珍惜生命的每一個瞬間,讓它無憾,即便生命依舊喜怒哀樂,依舊顛覆曲折… …

If you take Linear Algebra, you might find this funny (or absurd):
(1) determinant is an omelette
(2) matrix is a waffle
(3) you can't invert a waffle if you don't have an omelette
(4) subsequently, when you transpose a waffle you'll get danish (credits: my friend who loves chocolate danish)
(5) brine tank or system, is really a soup stock (I see potato soup..)

This is what happens when you have class around lunch time, obviously with an empty stomach too...

And the other day in bio class, I saw this receptor protein that looks identical to a carrot..

Wow... I'm really a university student now, finally got out of high school.

Everything's going well so far... well starting to have assignment due, and quizzes coming up. I'm exhausted everyday when I get back to res. Most courses are unfortunately boring, everything's review from HS. Math (calc + linear algebra) and physics are more interesting than the others, besides the first week when they kept reviewing vectors. Integrals is new..
Well mid-term is in October, I still need to work hard even if everything's just review.

And I tried out for synchro swimming and yoga the other day. It was awesome

I'm starting to miss a lot of people: Betty, Karmen, Andre, Shirley, Ada, GDM class, etc.
Can someone invite me to Facebook? No one really uses xanga now.

Hugs~

Remembrance Day

In Flanders Fields

In Flanders Fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.

Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.

----- Canadian Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae

Betty was singing this right next to me today, and after Bonnie's comment I started laughing hysterically at the beginning of Calculus class.  Betty continued singing (with a confused look), and it took me forever to stop laughing .

Note: Stop making me laugh!
