Presentation老师今天一上课就拿出一个remote control来,啪啦啪啦说了一番,最后引入正题 "how to control your temperament?" 这样的引入,恰到好处地让我们理解今天的topic~
接着。。。。 presentation~~想不到今天的presentation, 我会那么紧张。。。。。汗。。。。。还好不用grade! 有趣的是,开始前老师给每个人发一张card上面有些note,当你站在前面讲的时候,按照手上的note去做就行了,讲完,其它人就概括演讲人说的,再挑毛病。而这些毛病正是这些note上的错误指示。大家都很会表演。 让我想起这边比较受欢迎的两门课程:表演和幸福,前者教你如何在这个大舞台上去表演自己, 后者教你理解什么是幸福以及如何寻找自己的幸福。 而我们,从小就被教导要尊从,似乎那样才有幸福! 而事实上多少人,却每天做着不知道为了什么的事,逐渐麻木了,连自己都不知道什么是幸福。。。
Anyway,不多写了,看书去。。。。。。 cook American foodJan 30
按照schedule,今天下午总算到Nicol家了。当车子驶向她家方向的时候我很兴奋,因为来了每次出去都是另一个方向,头一次走另一个反方向。Yeah!像放飞的鸟耶。。。。。。
她带我去了shopping mall,window shopping 啦~呜呜~据说是这里最贵的shopping mall. 吃了相对正宗的美国pizza! 然后我们去grocery买菜,有趣的是里面的品种超多,而且蔬菜水果都是自己称,自己贴价钱的。想想在国内,没有一个人跟在身边已经谢天谢地了,更不用说还要排长龙去称东西。
既然说好了visit American family,当然要做american food啦!i had no idea at all! 跟她一起做就是了,舞弄了半天,还算做出了两个象模象样的chicken creek! (不知道中文名字,她的解释是像圣诞节挂在门上的那个楔寄环。后来我的roomate跟我说,尽管她在美国长大,她们家没做过那样的creek喔)那就当是nicol家的私房菜吧,呵呵~
在她家学习感觉很好。她老公正在读JD,每天都会跟他的同学在家学习,而她呢,今天也把我带去一起赶assigment. Dinner time 很开心,聊了很多两国的文化差异,大家的见闻。 发现跟他们一起很简单,很坦诚,而且她们总会称赞和鼓励你把事情做得更好。。。。。。
她家附近有china town,说好了下次去做中国菜,哈哈! 倒时差奋战了整整一个星期,没有一个晚上是早于2点睡觉的!似乎把中国的时间倒回来了,蛮搞的,在中国过着这边的时间,反而这边又回到中国的时间了。
当今天完成一部分的时候,算是有点成就感吧。还有很多事情没理顺,继续fighting......
行者无疆这两天大脑里突然冒出这个成语:“行者无疆”
每天独自穿梭于校园的路上总会在思考,都会想想过去和未来
今天当跟sophia聊起过去的时候,她说你可以写一本书了
原来,原来走过那么多路,我还是有收获的,不管苦与甜......
现在,我对“行者无疆”有了更深的了解,这是一条不归路,但是我相信总可以把我带到另一个地方
是的,我是行者,我一直在行走着,寻找着,属于自己的幸福
我知道,目前我还没有看到它的边疆,但只要方向没有错,我会走下去
昨天晚上,开始定了近期的plan,明显感觉到肩上的分量加重了
但,我很喜欢这样有目标的,充实的生活
在sophia那,我们俩一直并肩作战到零晨5点,趟下两个小时左右又起来去参加一个test。一天竟然都没有困意。。。。。
可以说,印象中在国内的时候,我没有通宵过,哪怕大学的考试从来都没有。
有很多事情要做,有很多事情等着我去做!在这里,把之前那颗浮躁的心慢慢沉淀下来,慢慢地去打基础,慢慢地等待成长,等待飞跃。。。。。
也许现在,甚至很长多时间看不到那个边疆,也许走到尽头的是一片沙漠
人生充满太多的不知数,太多的surprise, good or not!
而我只能做的就只有准备好,去行走 & 珍惜这个过程! Mad--Sweet surpriseJan 23 Getting Mad
I feel bule today when I stayed alone. Things are sometimes messing up.
1.The books here are extraordinarily expensive
2.Tremendous assignments for the last two weeks including those courses I was absent 3.Take time to figure out how the system works 4.The R.D charged me 1 dollar when I was locked out of the door! How ridiculous is it! 5.My laptop still doesn't work with my cable link
When will these string go away!?!
Jan 24 Sweet surprise
In this afternoon, when the class came to the end, our professor brought out some juice and a cake. Since this is the first class I attended, I can't help wondering if all the classes here are end with some dessert. To my surprise, the pro. asked whose birthday is in Jan. I handed up and deserved the privilege to cut the cake and get the blessing from the classmates. Although my birthday has been past, I really appreciate with this sweet surprise today. What's more, the teaching here is remarkably different from China. I prefer the former one. You maybe exhaust but will be interested in it. After the class one classmate help me reset my laptop and one classmate give me a book and one sold me his used book.
It is the noonday here. I haven't figured out what is the day on earth but enjoyed the free lunch in the spence hall. The food hight in fat still makes me uncomfortable, gonna begin to work out in the gym tomorrow!! Aha~ Everything just like the changable weather here~~ I have to get used to it! Have my registration doneFinally, I have my registration done this moring! American here are somewhat effective. I will have four courses this semester, two are online and the others are regular. Hope it won't drive me crazy!
It supposes I can write in Chinese today. It is so wired that I can't login with my account. So I have to write English again~~ I will visit Nicole whose home is in downtown this week. Getting excited about it! Nicole is a sweet Amrican girl who is working in the International Office. She helped me finish my registration this morning. Then I asked if i can visit her family. To my surprise, she was more excited than I and she told everyone in the IO. HO~HO~~ So interesting! Go to Arlington todayIt stops raining today and it is sunshine instead. Wow~~So luky for my trip to Arlington! We drove as fast as we can without worring about the traffice jam as in Bj. Although I am not a Chirstian, today I went to the Chinese Church with some friends and met some new friends. There are two halls for workship. One for Mandarin and the other for Cantonese. I joined the Cantonese one. I felt so good when sang the song in Cantonese. The song from the piano sound great! After that we had lunch in a Chinese restaurant. Em!! sleepy now! Perhaps I still sufer from the jetlad. Welcome partyI attended the international welcome party tonight. It was not bad. There were some games we need to play together with the other team members at the same table. What's more, we have dinner. Guess what? Most of them were Chinese food. It is the first time i eat the Chinese food here. Not bad! Of course they can not compare with those in China.
The puzzle game gave me deep impression. In Wandy's speech he said that:" We add a puzzle to our life everyday!" I can't agree with that more. This is the first day i come here and this is the first time i stay with so many strangers. I am adding a puzzle to my life every day now. Hopefully, the whole puzzle will be amazing one day in the future!!!
People come to our life so easy, while they leave quite often. Lily cried tonight when she gave the fair well speak about Jim's departure. The moment they hug reminds me the day i left Beijing. I hug my friend and tear down~!! It just liked this moment! It is me who chose to leave but i don't wanna indeed. Anyway, i miss you! I arrive to my destinationI arrive safely to my destination yesterday afternoon. Everything is well with me and i am trying my best to ajust nicely to the new surrounding. I can't get my internet connection with my own laptop untill I finish the registraion.So i have to use my roomate's computer to type in English.
I came here alone and luckly i met lots of nice people who gave me a hand on my way to here. I don't know how long it will take me to get use to the quite life here. Hopefully, i can get use to it soon.
There will be a welcome party tonight. I am looking forward to joining it and making some new friends.:) 大头虾发觉自己真的很大头虾,简直不可以原谅!
昨天晚上手机刚好没钱被停机
今天早上在去机场的路上,我把电子机票的单子拿出来,越看越不对劲! 上面确实写的是19号!!!!我的天呀,明明我订的是18号呀,明明订票的人给我说的是18号呀.......我要抓狂!!!!!只好返回睡个回笼觉(昨晚就睡了两个小时),今天可以给我调整一下,省得到时大脑不清醒更糟糕了. 幸好,幸好,是早了一天演习呵呵~~
希望明天一切顺利吧! 晕头转向Jan 8
一位很nice的officer,很nice地听完我说,很nice地给了我一张纸条.然后很nice地说:"wish you have a good trip!" 我也来句:"you are a nice person!" 当时有点激动,然后就是有点反应不过来,坐在走廊上......一个secure过来跟我说:"今天签过真的不容易呀!" 而我自己最清楚真正的"不容易"的内涵! 我不禁哭了~!为自己一直以来的执着!我知道,当你做到一件的时候,并不代表什么,毕竟还有很长的另一段路等着你去走,但是曾经的这个过程,却是让人难忘的,它鼓舞着我继续走下去!

在老师家呆坐了一个早上,不停在想:"to be or not to be"的问题.......然后回学校找王同学,处理一下我放在她那的东西. 发现除了几件衣服,几本书,其他的想带却已经带不走了.很多东西,现在都不知道在哪个角落了,搬过好多次家,每次总留下些东西.等某天突然想起那件东西时,却怎么也想不起来在哪里了.最后,在身边就一个箱子,装着所有的家当.有些东西,当你舍得放下时,反而会轻松点.

一大早去和平里那边,就顺便把keys给Jari.去了我们最常去的那家斋馆吃自助.不想告诉他我离开的决定,但最后还是忍不住,而结果还是如我想的那样,他很surprise,还有点失望."怎么我的好朋友都要离开!" 听到这句话,心里有点不舒服,也开始感到离别的忧伤.....
晚上跟charles和forest吃饭,很开心,但心里却有说不出的滋味.晚上漫步在什刹海,感觉很好.....
Jan 12
非常感谢forest把他一天的时间都给我,开车送我满城跑! 我已经感觉很累了,他还要开车一整天~~赞一个!
Jan 13
Lulu一大早就要上班,当相拥的那一刻,我的眼泪又不争气地流下.....当我收到她那条短信的时候,更是需要很长段时间才恢复过来......这里,是我在北京住得最温馨,最开心的地方.每天晚上的talking,总让人那么开心,每次遇到开心还是不开心,总有她在倾听,总有她的鼓励和关怀.我们还有很多没有一起去完成的事情,我却最后还是匆匆地离开了,而这里,永远是我的一盏照明灯,永远有我的牵挂!
要进入登机室时,一刻也不敢停留,头也不敢往回多看.我知道好朋友在看着我离去的背影,我看到彼此眼睛里的眼泪.也就是今天不太想让其他人去送机的原因.起飞前一小时,我一直在掉眼泪....
Jan 15
这几天一到家就没停过.一直在办手续和采购中.
没有告诉好多朋友,就那几个特别要好的朋友见见面.晚上阿水出来莞城,还有阿郭,我们三又疯了一个晚上.道窖粥,烧鹅赖,卤水宵夜.....正如阿郭说的:"能吃自己想吃的,做自己想做的,是最幸福的事!"今晚感到很幸福! 我们三在一起永远都是那样,笑个没完没了!从运河笑到0769,三个人挤一张床,一直聊天直到都睡着.....
生日快乐好几天都打不开space,今天终于。。。。唯有后补以下咯 说说刚过去的生日吧~(那天网络问题,没有及时跟在纽约的那位跟我同年同日同一屋檐下的人说声生日快乐哦~看到这些字,就当收到祝福吧,hoho~) 那天。。。就那样过了 引用一下小笨猪给我写的生日祝福语:
阿WING美女生日快乐!
湖广会馆初见--惊艳一枪 挥着翅膀的女孩儿--WING 好细腻的文字耶,还有一个带有翅膀的天使的图片,还有一首《挥着翅膀的女孩》的歌,看完足足感动半天。。。。。 如文中所述,我的生日滑雪计划泡汤了,滑冰也告吹,晚上跟几个朋友一起吃饭,没有K歌。回家路上,接到SS的电话,他第二天一大早回美国的飞机,还大晚上大冬天给我送礼物,非常感动ing~~ 虽然没有很热闹,虽然没有家人的陪伴,但是有这样的好朋友一起,已经很满足了。 每天总会遇到不同的人,其实每天都可以如生日般开心,快乐, why not?? 又大一岁咯,希望新的一年有新的开始啦~ wing~wing 要加油咯~!!
元旦就这样过去在家呆了几天,没有出门,节日就这样过去了。不知道外面的热闹,只知道屋里的静寂。。。。。。
新的一年在欢呼中度过,但感慨.....依然是...."狂欢是一群人的孤单,大概很多人在新年之际祈求,不要孤单,也不要了狂欢......"
有很多事情要做,但是没有激情.......总要等到the last moment~~
新的一年啦,又快大一岁咯~继续追逐,继续没完成的心愿..........
New year & New hope一阵欢呼,迎来了07年的到来...跟几个朋友聚到一起通宵达旦,很开心!
过去的06年有太多太多的故事,有笑有泪,有喜有悲. 而这年又是自己成长得最快的一年.没来得及总结,没来得及计划,不管得与失,过去的就让它过去吧. 收拾心情,迎来新一年的到来,相信经历过很多事情后,以后就会少走那么多弯路了.
06年的最后一个晚上收到家人和很多朋友的祝福. 昨天家人给我电话,突然很想家了......希望新的一年有更多的时间陪陪家人,少让他们担心!
