Rent (off-broadway)

RENT '08年停演之後,今年夏天又回到off-broadway 不過據說這新的reinvention不受劇評家的喜愛,說演員不融入角色)[1]。RENT被定義為rock musical,音樂也是真的比較重節拍、激動一點。雖然'05年看過電影,覺得很突兀,但是當時一些歌曲還蠻使人回味再三。

12/25 紐約功夫茶


來到久仰大名的功夫茶,在紐約東村,好嗨森啊~

謝小姐覺得他的紅茶拿鐵很像洗碗精,但是那是伯爵紅茶的味道,唉,好茶也要遇到伯樂呀。我的仙草綠倒是獲得一致好評。

每次完成一件事情之後

......都會有很長的放空期。

應該要去運動的,這樣就不會覺得內心疲憊了。

Concentration problem

TSA BBQ @ Bald Eagle 2010

I have difficulty concentrating on my research since two weeks ago. More precisely, it is after I gave two consecutive talks on one Friday. That really drained my energy out.

I missed the old days that I could play baseball in the afternoon during weekdays.

Okay, I have a poster presentation in mid-September and AICHE in mid-October. No time for hanging around.

沈穩


1. 不要隨便顯露你的情緒
2. 不要逢人就訴說你的困難和遭遇
3. 在徵詢別人的意見之前,自己先思考,但不要先講
4. 不要一有機會就嘮叨你的不滿
5. 講話不要有任何的慌張,走路也是

這是前幾天從我爹轉寄給我的文章中看到的,完全證明了我是一個不沈穩的人啊!

約莫三個星期前,發現我的share button只剩下plurk一位,雖然這個部落格門可羅雀,但是冰冰同學秉持著能做一百就不做八十的精神,還是決定把這件事搞定。

中文的文字雲

今天在電腦玩物上看到一個由台灣人timdream 製作的 「HTML5文字雲:文章詞彙分析機」

Idioms for today

The hardest thing for non-native speaker to learn English is idioms. Many times I would find that I understand all individual words in a sentence, but have no idea what it means.
I ran into two idioms while reading an article about "articles", and decided to write them down. Hoped by doing so, I will not forget them.
"get by" & "more than meets the eye"

Spring ... neh, almost there

For several days I though the spring was here when the temperature shot as high as 50F. It was last week. Starting from this Monday, we suddenly had another 2~4 inches of new snow; not to mention the temperature goes back to 20 something.

Blogger 的官方share button

之前受讀者蠱惑,本來裝了一個facebook的讚button,但是想想我的讀者也只有小貓兩三隻,門可羅雀,所以又默默的移掉了。

後來發現Blogger推出了官方的share button,簡單大方,跟我的氣質實在是十分相符,就決定把他裝起來。
