type='html'>假日的早晨偶爾到麥當勞吃早餐，是我從大學以來就培養出來的閒情逸致。從前在民雄鄉，偶爾想吃個麥當勞還得開車上省道，往嘉義市方向走個十公里才會抵達，對忙碌大學生來說是個悠閒的活動，而為了讓這個「享受」更加奢侈一點，我會在禮拜六的早晨七點出發，騎了半個小時的自行車去麥當勞吃個滿福堡餐，再慢慢地騎回來，常常覺得吃下去的熱量都不足以應付騎車花的力氣。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;現在，我最常去的一家麥當勞位在 Urbana 市區的東北邊，原本遙不可及的麥當勞在有了車子之後變得彷彿近在咫尺，於是我又恢復了這個偶爾忙裡偷閒的嗜好。最棒的是可以去吃早餐，因為無論是台灣或是美國的麥當勞，我只對早餐有興趣。這家麥當勞跟其他分店不太一樣，最特別的是它的裝潢很新，而且店裡打掃得十分乾淨，讓人彷彿置身在台灣的麥當勞一般，連店員都好像跟台灣一樣比較親切一點。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;早上的麥當勞，通常都只有年長的夫妻才會進去用餐，少了年輕人或是小孩的嘈雜聲，即使是獨自一人坐著也可以自然地融入這安靜的氣氛中。大部分時間我只是去吃東西，有時候會帶一本書去閱讀，或是規劃下一周的行程。最近這陣子因為考試壓力很大，前幾天去了麥當勞早餐，聽到櫃檯不時傳來員工嘻鬧的聲音 ─ 這是跟台灣比較不同的地方，台灣比較少聽到員工嘻鬧，此時此刻就感受到整間店面都充滿了歡樂的氣氛。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;我也好想這樣，帶著快樂，並且專注工作。&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

type='text'>德語課</title><content type='html'>首先要感謝一位老朋友在百忙之中抽空把這本書借給我。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;然後我就回家很努力地閱讀著它，「德語課」是主人翁西吉在少年感化院中的課程，他因為在作文課中交了白卷，所以被獨自關在禁閉室中，罰寫作文，題目為「履行職責的歡樂」。隨著寫作的過程，他回憶起自己的父親魯格布爾警察，以及家鄉知名的畫家南森，還有家鄉的人們之間所發生的事件。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Siegfried Lenz 使用故事性的手法，嘲弄德國在納粹時代的荒謬行徑，以及人們一味地遵守所謂的命令，不顧其正當性與合理性的狂熱之舉。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;以前總以為做一件事情就該用某一種方法去做，但是現在卻體認到，做一件事情可能有無數種方式，對於同一個事物，十個人可能出現十一種看法。而法律、道德、規則，都是可以根據需要而修改的。而我愈來愈相信，事情沒有絕對，什麼事都有可能發生。尤其是一些世俗的觀念，一些舊有的習慣，繁文縟節以及三從四德。並不是說遵守道德是錯的，而是應該去瞭解背後的真正意涵，然後才能抓到其精神。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;當然在生活中，有太多舊有的習慣成自然，人們逐漸忘卻自己真正需要的是什麼。當兵的時候最能體會，一張床、一個臉盆，一個背包，你需要的就是這些東西，然後靠著它們度過一年，很多額外的東西都是不必要的負擔，比較了就想擁有，擁有了就怕失去，而其實每個環境之中，都可以找到自得其樂的方式，跟自己所在的環境和諧相處，才能感受那份美好與平靜。&lt;div

type='html'>看完了最近熱門的國片之二，冏男孩，劇情鋪陳像是一本小孩子的剪貼簿一樣，用片段的情節拼湊出小男孩的夢想與掙扎。這部片比起熱門國片之一海角七號，顯得沒這麼嗨，也許比較不討喜，可是其中所蘊含的意義可能更為深遠。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;其實無論是大人小孩，我們都跟劇中男孩一樣，有個自己也不知道是什麼的夢想，渴望到達一個不知道長怎樣的異次元，幻想著那邊有著很好的事情會發生，然後在現實生活中努力追求，想去那個夢中的地方一探究竟。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;也許有的人用著錯誤的方法，一直走卻往不正確的方向，永遠在繞路，到不了異次元。&lt;br /&gt;有的人走在正確的路上，小心翼翼地一步一步終於踏入異次元的世界，回頭卻發現來到一個不知名的地方，想回去。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;所以你一直朝思暮想的，打拼的，嚮往的，追尋的，是不是適合你的異次元？&lt;br /&gt;異次元的人都騎大象，你會不會騎大象？&lt;br /&gt;到了異次元，就真的變成異次元的人嗎？&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br

從大老遠的嘉義跑來台北，一起吃晚餐聊天。原本是打算問問美國各個學校的概況、排名、領域的優劣等等議題，乍看之下似乎會是個很平常的討論，如果今天是跟別的教授一起吃飯，主題就是這麼發展。而因為今天是 John，我們完全、一點都沒有聊到這些話題。而在談話結束之餘，我才回想起自己在三個小時前，滿腦子裝的問題是多麼的「世俗」，或是亦可稱之為「庸俗」。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;要怎麼申請學校？&lt;br /&gt;未來要走什麼方向？&lt;br /&gt;怎麼找研究題目？&lt;br /&gt;你覺得什麼是快樂？&lt;br /&gt;人生是什麼？&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;這些問題都不是在短短三個小時之內能夠釐清的，而 John 的簡短提示，也激發了我跟老菜的深深思考。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;於是我開始在想，自己是不是每個階段都比過去更加快活呢？我有沒有為了達到目標而逼迫自己走入不快樂的境界呢？我是真心喜歡研究還是想創業賺錢呢？&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;John 說，我應該每天花一些時間開始唸書了，真的，是該開始準備的時候。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;然後在一個我關心的領域中，定義自己的問題，用自己的方法找到解答。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;有些時候不用急，只要你做到了，有需要的人就會來找你。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;既使是不在學校中，想做研究依然還是可以做。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;有一種熟悉的感覺浮上心頭，那是大學時我問了 John 那個問題之後的記憶：「老師，你覺得什麼是快樂？」&lt;br /&gt;然後談著談著，剛開始想問的那些問題，彷彿變得一點都不重要了。好像「太傻十日談」裡面的情景，太傻對主角說，申請學校的過程是一種自我成長。而就在台北車站的二樓，John 跟我說，一路走來都是一種快樂的追尋，應該要愈來愈自在。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;也許一切都還未定，因為我的路還繼續走著，但無論怎麼走，方向總是得朝著愈來愈好的那條路前進。&lt;div

/&gt;今天在一個偶然的機會下，跟著菲利普一行人去看眾人推薦的國片「海角七號」。&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;果然整部片從劇情、取景、風格、台詞都非常值得推薦。電影院在平常日晚上依舊座無虛席。&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;我個人看海角七號，最印象深刻的地方就是劇中刻畫著每個居民的生活方式，他們在這部片中不僅僅是配角，而是各自有各自的目標、理念、喜怒哀樂，面對每一天也隱約顯露出各自的生活態度。&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;最有感覺的是主角明明當郵差，卻把信件都拿回家一封也沒投遞，還有不搭理警察跟友子的態度。&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;===自言自語分隔線===&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;很多事情不需要那麼在乎，自己的感受只有自己能瞭解，如果為了外在的和諧而去勉強自己，不但沒有助益，反而會破壞了心中的和諧。世界上有很多好人，你可以不需要這麼好，你能得到什麼？&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div

對話記錄，覺得自己高中真是個北七的小孩，腦袋不知道裝了些什麼，果然人都有過去，但我其實並不是很懷念過去的日子，我很喜歡現在的感覺，有一種彷彿從遠古時代走回現代的解放。&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;能學習新的事物，能認識更多新朋友，能不斷進步，蛻變，就是生活的樂趣。&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div

type='text'>偷書賊</title><content type='html'>今天在公園跑步的時候，忽然想寫一篇文章。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;常常心中有些認真的想法體會，卻不會想付諸文字，也許是怕寫了成為無聊的論說文。但有時候心中就是有著一種輕輕淡淡的感覺，卻怎樣也想寫些甚麼記錄下來，日後可以拿來翻閱笑一笑當時的自己。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;其實在跑步之前，我在看一本翻譯小說，書名是「偷書賊」。小說內容要自己看了才知道，但他之所以吸引我，也許是我有很常一段時間不曾靜下來閱讀小說。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;還記得上一本是當兵前看的，Our Man in Havana，英國小說家 Graham Greene 的有趣故事。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;一翻開偷書賊，我很快就融入故事的情境之中，想像自己生活在納粹德國的年代。而一本好的小說，就是要寫到讓你的心情隨著故事鋪陳而走，隨著作者筆下的荒誕不羈、悲喜交雜、熱情洋溢而翩翩起舞。小說之所以迷人，就是能帶給我們這些不同的感受，不一樣的心情，另一個世界，以及那超乎自己生活經驗而沒辦法想像的情境。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;一天不能看太多頁，還得去慢跑，於是我在第 166 頁把書闔上。然後發現自己從一個翩翩起舞的世界走出來，到了原本以為平凡無奇的世界，可是心情還在旋轉著，對生活的感受力還打開著，好像可以從這一年的規律生活中，發現新的感覺，在書中感受不同角色的情緒，在現實生活卻總是忙著過日子，忘了欣賞感受自己跟他人的生活。(雖然舉例常常很遜，但是這就像是坐船搖來搖去之後，回到陸地上覺得地面還在晃一樣)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;其實這一年的生活很充實，也跟過去不一樣，有了新的感覺，新的環境，不同的體驗。&lt;br /&gt;一本小說喚醒了已經鈍掉的知覺，讓我對週遭事物有新的感受，Sharpen my mind。&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

type='html'>這株吉野櫻，生長在一個非常不顯眼的電線桿旁，夏天、秋天、冬天過去了，就算從旁邊走過也從來不曾正眼瞄過一次。可是就在今年春天，這株吉野櫻茂盛地綻放，滿樹美麗的粉紅花瓣，吸引了一群小蜜蜂瘋狂採蜜。這株櫻花是如此顯眼，連路過的阿伯都忍不住多看了幾眼，我則是拿出了手機拍了幾張照片，還因此把蜜蜂帶著走了好一段路。&lt;br /&gt;四月了，這株吉野櫻早就不是照片裡的樣子，她又回復成一棵路人叫不出名字的樹，也不會有小孩子指著她說"媽媽你看好漂亮的花喔！"&lt;br /&gt;可是每當我看到這株櫻花滿樹翠綠的葉子，也同時會想起那枝頭繁花綻放的時刻。所以我們有個默契，互相約定，等待來年冬天過去，春天剛來的那一場華麗表演。美好的時刻總是留不住，但美麗時刻也總是有機會再來。等到明年春天，如果這株櫻花還是盛開，我一定會特別多看她幾眼。&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

type='text'>和諧人生</title><content type='html'>過了一段很平靜單調的日子，很久沒有來寫一些文章。最近的心情有點起伏，生活好像不似之前的和諧，於是今天下班經過公園，特別選了一條不同以往的小徑漫步著。&lt;br /&gt;天氣轉涼，冷冷的清風吹拂著一株櫻花樹，叮噹作響，抬頭仰望才發現是有人把風鈴掛在樹梢。那聲音聽來是格外清脆響亮，彷彿要訴說甚麼似的，提醒著人們在庸庸碌碌的疲憊與厭倦之中，依然點綴著小小的美好。&lt;br /&gt;說也奇怪，思緒就這樣平靜了許多。回到家之後趕緊把子敏大師所撰"和諧人生"從書架上取下翻閱，這本散文集充滿著人生智慧，讀著讀著就會將許多複雜的事情看得透澈，每當我對人際互動感到倦怠與疲乏的時候，這本陳舊的書總能帶給心靈一種甦醒的力量。心，是自己唯一可以控制的事物，無論遇到甚麼樣的事情，不同的心境就會帶來全然迥異的感受，謂之境隨心轉。而儒家思想提及的「存乎中，形於外」也是說明外界發生的境遇、自己對於境遇的感受以及認知，其實是內心情境的反射。本篇為哲學老梗文。&lt;div

of army and been going to work in a delightful place, I think I am really lucky to live the great life in Taipei. I work in daytime, and usually eat dinner at home. After dinner I study English. Sometimes I read books. My life is so regular during the week. As for weekends, I go to a prep school for taking GRE. That is also a routine. Things go smoothly in my plain life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It rains a lot in the past one month. It rains all the time. It rains to make my jeans wet on the bus to my office, to where I often go on foot. It rains so heavily to wash away my energy. I need some refreshment.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What really great is, that I could always find some things, even quite small and irrelevant, to bring me amusement. Those pieces of pleasure constitute the taste of my life. I am so glad to have this ability to gain happiness out of incidents in day-to-day works. For instance, it easily gives me a nice mood after having a small talk with some colleagues, or encountering friends in unexpected places. I think I might have become a more spiritually satisfied person than before.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;早上轉開電視看到衛視電影台正在播放「滿城盡帶黃金甲」，這是張藝謀導演的一部中國宮廷故事。看張藝謀的電影是一種視覺上的享受，總是把鮮明的色彩運用得 淋漓盡致，就像是一幅一幅圖畫一般地呈現在眼前，無論是動態靜態的紋理都表現的很細緻，彷彿不需要台詞，畫面本身就告訴我們許多故事。劇情演技可能不是最 棒，但是整齣戲(應該是半齣戲，因為開始看時已播到後半)的味道是古典的、節奏是起伏的，最後配上周董的菊花臺當片尾曲，恰到好處的滿意。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;object width="425"

/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;話說菊花臺這首歌，曾經有研所的學弟阿達跟我提起，說是一開始覺得沒什麼特別動聽，但是經室友不斷播放，反而覺得耐聽，百聽不厭。我是今天看了一半的電影之後，才對歌詞描述的情境更有感覺，很美的一首歌。&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

大啖壽喜燒，吃到都快滿出來了。米奇在德州念會計，之後說要留在美國找工作，今天還多認識了很多新朋友，好久不見的大燈跟阿魯巴也出現了，真是令人滿足的一餐。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;吃飽大家就到公館逛一圈，散會之後我跟老菜到誠品看看書，最近一直克制著買書的慾望，想把在桌上已久的 An Introduction to Fiction 先看完，但是這似乎有點困難呢! 改天看到好書應該還是會毫不手軟地買下去。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;從誠品回到永康街已經六點了，晚上跟小眼睛約好一起吃燒肉，他的國中同學也跟我們一起到乾杯。進了乾杯當然要點啤酒才過癮，這裡的燒肉品質真的是很不賴，份量雖然少但是新鮮美味，喝了啤酒整個臉都很紅，但是兩位美女竟然面不改色，依然維持白皙臉龐，實在是羨慕喝酒不臉紅的人啊。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;吃飽當然又要逛一下街，這回到新光站前店去，小眼睛買香水給媽媽，我去試穿一件 Sisley 的外套，不錯看但是價格頗貴，還是等發薪水之後再說吧，沒錢的我!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;今天一整個充實又開心，認識很多新朋友，吃了好吃的東西，超幸福。&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1'

同學；在新竹大潤發跟朋友不期而遇；在四三砲指部遇到新訓睡在隔壁的同梯；在 SOGO 巧遇正在當兵的學弟；在嘉義文化路遇到還沒在一起的前女友...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;這些都是緣分。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;因為不知分手後還是不是能再相遇，人們更要珍惜在一起相聚的時光。&lt;div

聚餐，Amati、鱒魚跟菜花都出席了，五個人七嘴八舌討論著當兵、出國、做研究，當然還有令人懷念的中正大學。我很早就想來Woodstone，但是直到今天才第一次光臨這家餐廳，雖然是吃到飽，但是它的 pizza 一點也不馬虎，薄脆的餅皮更是爽口不膩。其實吃下什麼好料是其次，跟老友開懷談笑的時光才實在是值得細細品味。這次讓秋神買單請客，真是十分感謝，也祝他元旦到南加大之後可以事事順心！&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;下午跟邦彥去資訊展，前幾天在網路上看到 Samsung 的新款 T10，後來在實用性與價格的考量之下，改變心意買了 K3，薄薄一台 player 拿在掌心，好像很 fragile，會忍不住想多看它一眼，感溫式觸控鈕似乎成了必備行頭，經過一番殺價後，花了三張小朋友帶回家，現在正在充電呢。以後英文聽力就靠它囉~ 晚上還跟邦彥去吃泰國菜，兩個人吃到很撐，早知道應該去吃港式飲茶。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;明天可能會去買電腦，又加上昨天的皮鞋，整個就是大採購大失血，不過，最近的生活很不錯，一直都有著好心情、新氣象，托您的福~~讓我熬過了軍旅生涯，來到幸福的日子，謝謝。&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1'

I brought a bag of tea leave and a bag of Starbucks coffee bean as my gift. I also see my friend there. We didn't see each other for one year! She always looks happy and pretty good. We only chatted for 5 min. Then I went to "queen's" lab. She was also good in spite of catching a serious cold. I also had lunch with Dave. He is making all the efforts to get the PHD.

/&gt;昨天到誠品買了這本書，整本書的主旨很簡單，就是要我們隨時運用"心"的力量來影響自己的生活。書中提到我們的思考會影響外界的環境，而真正對自己有意義的，就在於內心的感受與想法。好的想法會產生好的感覺，而這就是改變一切的關鍵。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;我在讀這本書的時候，一直回想起自己最喜愛的"&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;牧羊少年奇幻之旅&lt;/span&gt;"，感覺就像是兩本書的作者是鄰居一樣，有共通的想法、類似的觀念，"&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;牧羊少年&lt;/span&gt;"是以故事的手法隱喻那"無所不能的天地之心"，以及闡述"當你真心希望某件事的時候，全宇宙都會聯合起來幫助你"這樣的概念；"&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;秘密&lt;/span&gt;"則是以更白話的箴言方式提醒讀者，只要全心相信自己擁有的夢想實現，並讓自己身歷其境，那麼事情真的會自然而然發生。就像是解釋經典的導讀一般，"&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;秘密&lt;/span&gt;"讓我更明白"&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;牧羊少年&lt;/span&gt;"為什麼會出現男孩變成一陣風那樣，看似哈利波特劇情的一幕場景，還有作者想表達的意涵。&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

/&gt;"天下有大勇者，卒然臨之而不驚，無故加之而不怒，此其所挾持者甚大，而其志甚遠也。" 又曰"千金之子，不死於盜賊，何哉？其身之可愛，而盜賊之不足以死也。"&lt;br /&gt;然後加上三不五時把子敏的"和諧人生"拿出來溫習，提醒自己要容忍。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;在軍中久了，平常會聯絡的人都漸漸失去聯絡，要靠自己主動打電話，有的時候還蠻懶的。 我的 flickr

/&gt;從上個禮拜回台北時，就一直想去看這部片，周董作曲的主題曲是依然熟悉的英式搖滾風，而桂綸鎂的演出讓本片更吸引人了。不能說的秘密是以高中校園當作背景，劇本就如小白說的，寫得十分不錯，在中間女主角消失的那一段，尤其是讓我們都捏了一把冷汗，以為看到了驚悚片，幸好最後是"穿越時空的情書"，而非"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 100%;"&gt;七夜怪談&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 100%;"&gt;"或是"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 100%;"&gt;美麗境界&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 100%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 100%;"&gt;"。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;整部片拍攝手法很有特色，將平凡無奇的景物納入攝影機之中變得令人驚艷，淡水河邊的風景、舊市場風格、校園風光、舊唱片行，這些取景都很值得去注意。女主角的台詞十分活潑，好像有點故意寫來讓桂綸鎂說出口似的，青澀的校園戀曲，配合劇中的鋼琴曲，很有學院優雅的風味。整部片就是值得推薦。&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div

Hotel to treat friends of my mother. God knows that our Saab sedan will halt on a highway.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; On the way home, I drove a 10-year-old Ford Mondeo, following my father's Saab 95. We went smoothly, the traffic is quite okay. Suddenly I saw the Saab flashing both of its direction light and slowing down, pushing to the right side. I thought my parents wanted to go another place, so I passed the Saab and headed home.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; My mobile phone soon start ringing. It was the engine of Saab shut down unexpectedly. The car was now stopping on a highway, where the speed limit is 70 km/hr!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; We returned to the poor Saab and went to a car service shop for help. In the beginning we thought it was the battery running out, but it was something worse. The engine couldn't be restarted even with an extra battery. It was the engine having a problem.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; An hour later we finally got the car under repair in a service shop. I've had many trouble with my old Mondeo, but never as serious as the poor Saab. It is so dangerous to have your car engine shut down without any warning!

I got an extra holiday on Saturday. There were lots of things to do if you got an extra free day. That is really an exciting thing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;There were two meetings with my friends that I had been expecting to for a long time. I wouldn't be able to attend either of them because this Saturday was not a holiday.&lt;br /&gt;Nevertheless, it WAS for me. The mission in the army brought me to Taipei and gave me an extra holiday.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;What really stupid for me is, I gave up the first meeting, for that I was very exhausted of lacking sleep. And what really unbelievable for me is, I missed the second meeting also, for that I didn't check the yahoo e-mail on Friday night.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;I ended up with sitting before computer all the day, feeling very much bored. I got a lot of chance to do a lot of things. Including the two meetings I wanna go the most. But I didn't do anything on the day. Actually I did something: searching for the information for applying admission to study abroad.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;There is &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a style="FONT-FAMILY: trebuchet ms" href="http://fmkit.blogspot.com/2006/05/road-not-taken.html"&gt;a poem by Robert Frost&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt; I mentioned before, the Road Not Taken.

center;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;今天中午跟老爸去買了舒國治在"台北小吃札記"裡面提到的，東門市場口的「張媽媽自助餐」。一個小小的攤位擺了剛煮好的家常菜，屬於老台北的滋味就在這不起眼的暗巷中蔓延著。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;下午跟老菜去逛街，到滿是青春活力的信義商圈誠品，一邊走著一邊環顧四週，心中有種油然而生的疑惑，我們念了大學、上了研究所，一路走來生活圈子怎麼都似乎狹隘了點，這個問題從我高中時代就一直延續到現在，是不是會有改變的一天呢？&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;另一個困擾的問題，關於進修與就業。這陣子常常不自覺想著，要不要乾脆退伍後找個好公司上班呢？就業可以讓心裡比較踏實，也可以累積實作能力，不似進修這條路充滿著不確定性。可是今天忽然想到，我放棄國防役而選擇入伍是為了什麼？是不是因為軍中太苦悶，就想要退伍後找個好位子領多一點薪水過好一點的生活，那這一年的忍耐與折磨又是為了什麼。這個想法忽然讓我有所警覺，想起"牧羊少年"跟那有關"棉花糖"的書。從高中到現在，一路走來，安逸就不是我的選項，我總是那個自討苦吃的人，不要被今年的挫折磨光了志氣，我要好好提醒自己！&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;結果今天還是沒有買 Comedian，因為覺得看不完，沒時間。我還是偶爾看看 TIME 還有  Newsweek 解解渴就好，看小說，等到退伍再來吧。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;其實在營區裡面最大的願望就是有朋友會打電話來問候，不過到目前為止好像很少，每次打來我都高興很久。&lt;div

computer with only one hand for a month since the left arm broken. And this weekend the doctor said I should remove the arm-fixer and exercise my elbow to stretch the muscle. Finally I can use both hands! I quit drinking coffee for more than 1 month. Never did that before!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are more and more crazy things in my army life. Don't wanna think about them. What even crazier is, I feel very much bored and tired on weekend. The holiday cannot give me refresh anymore! I wanna go out with my friends on weekend. But it seems my wish hardly come true recently. Everyone seems disappeared from my world, or it seems like I was disappeared from their worlds. Wander why...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What should I do after military life? Study or work? I'm thinking about this recently.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The next novel I wanna read: the &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Comedian&lt;/span&gt; by Graham Greene. And I also bought some books online. Nevertheless I can hardly find some time to read them.

When I was in school, the stress were exams, reports, thesis. I struggled over those tasks and made it best as I could. I could control my life as a sailor, without getting lost. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And now I'm in the army, the stress are all the weird, unbelievable, sudden events that pop-up at any time when I'm busy. I fight with those troubles, make changes, do something to push it back to normal. And until I found that these events are inevitable, are uncontrollable, and are "normal", I could only accept it and do just my best. So I become a person trying to save a burning car with merely a glass of water in my hand.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A good answer to this problem might be this: just do it, and just let it go.

type='html'>　　昨天到高雄師大附近的大統百貨逛誠品，這間誠品空間雖然不大，但是各類書籍尚稱齊全，總覺得比起大遠百誠品要好逛一些。在這邊買了一本很久以前就想買的書，褚士瑩的「旅行教我的十一堂課」。還記得第一次看到這本書是在清大水木書局的一個煩悶下午，當時只是站在店內翻著瀏覽，想藉著書中描述的，我所嚮往的旅行夢，排解研究生的苦悶。&lt;br /&gt;　　但是軍中的苦與無奈遠遠大於研究生活，這次不把書帶回家是對不起自己了。褚士瑩一直是我很欣賞的作家之一，他的生活態度，懷抱著夢想以及勇於追求的熱情，總是提醒我不要就這樣在生活中停滯不前。買這本書就是要提醒自己，讓自己不要輕易放棄。&lt;br /&gt;　　旅行是很簡單的一件事，而且在生活中時時刻刻都可以做到，他在書中提到的方法很有趣，而且也很令人點頭贊同，他說要先從散步逛街開始做起，訓練自己旅行的能力，如果做得到每天在住家附近散步而能不覺得厭煩，那才具備勞累旅途中能夠怡然自得的本事。書中有一段提到他最愛吃的燒臘三寶飯，興記，就在永康街尾，我在那邊住了快十年，每次路過都沒有進去吃，下次回台北一定要吃吃看。&lt;div

A Good Year describes a totally different, extraordinary life of Max, who was a manager of a broker firm in London. Max returned to  southern France and recalled memories of his childhood in the vineyard.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is a great contrast between his stressful life in London and the slow pace in France. His destiny brought him to a peaceful village, where he found a pretty France girl and decided to stay.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;  This film takes a feeling of leisure. The story is in a delightful harmony with a little dancing - up and down. You almost can guess the ending from the beginning, but you still can enjoy the story all the way.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;  "Money or life?" is the key question in this film. And I think that money is an essential support of my lifestyle. But once you make it too much and go over your life. It becomes a loading rather than a support.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

/&gt;另一個很有趣的地方是台灣故事館，在火車站前面的 K-Mall 地下室，裡面布置得跟光復初期的台灣一樣風格，看著牆上貼的反共復國標語、新生活運動口號，讓人彷彿回到過去，類似的場所我在東京的台場也曾去過，裡面布置的就是老東京都的樣子，這種復古懷舊的風格，很適合跟外國朋友或是小朋友一起來逛逛。&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img

scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='culture'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='life'/><title type='text'>A train for somewhere</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-size: 100%;"&gt;　　唸書的時候雖然在外地，卻沒有常搭乘火車，每次回家都是坐客運。一直到當兵之後，才開始頻繁地接觸火車這項奇妙的交通工具。台灣的火車有很多種類，雖然都長得差不多，但是坐起來就是感覺不一樣，別有趣味。&lt;br /&gt;　　最慢的火車應該是普快了，上禮拜從高雄坐到楠梓，是我第一次有機會坐到普快，它的位子是兩個人坐一張椅子，每站都停，讓人可以盡情瀏覽鐵路沿線風光，那天雖然車上很多空位，我還是選擇站在門邊，吹吹外面的涼風。&lt;br /&gt;　　區間車是最常坐的一種，以前曾經靠它往返嘉義與民雄，最遠曾經從民雄坐到台中，花了不少時間，而當兵的日子，總是坐區間車往返各小型火車站。那種面對面坐著的位子，會讓你不知道把眼光擺哪裡，所以大家頭都低低的，除非是對面坐著帥哥美女。&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 100%;"&gt;　&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 100%;"&gt;　&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 100%;"&gt;復興號在票價上是跟區間車同等級的，而它可以對號入座，因此如果很少人在排隊買票，不妨用復興號代替區間車，可以坐著好好睡一下，我曾經跟老蔡坐復興號從新竹到嘉義，三個多小時真是可以睡很久，睡到不想睡了，缺點是復興號好像沒有提供賣便當的服務。&lt;br /&gt;　　莒光號就高級一點了，但是很多小站還是有停莒光號，因此它快不到哪裡去，頂多是車廂比較新一些，噪音比復興號小，我很少坐莒光號。&lt;br /&gt;　　自強號是長途旅行的最佳選擇，因為可以舒服地在位子上看書，很平穩又安靜冷氣又強，廁所也比較好，我第一次坐火車從台北到高雄就是搭自強號，而且是兩個禮拜前的事，花了四個小時，沒坐過這麼久的火車，最期待就是鐵路便當。&lt;br /&gt;　　捷運是個神奇又方便的東西，真是大都會必備的好東西，有捷運到的地方，生意興隆地價高昂，也是我最常搭乘的交通工具，除了台北以外，高雄也快有捷運了。捷運已經成為我在大城市移動的主要工具之一，缺點是不能在上面吃東西。&lt;br /&gt;　　台灣最新的玩意兒就是高鐵，今天有機會從左營搭高鐵到台北，不到兩個小時就回到家中，只有快而已！！但是也很貴，火車能跑這麼快，讓我覺得十分神奇，好像貼地飛行一樣。高鐵非常平穩，又有賣咖啡零食小點心，還有販賣機，缺點是不太適合在車上看書，為什麼？因為太快了，還沒看到一個段落就要下車了。&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div

/&gt;　　從後校坐上一班從中壢開往新竹的新竹客運，本來以為會比到火車站搭火車還方便，沒想到這台公車除了司機開車很猛，在台三線上飄移像是周董的歌之外，竟然還在桃園新竹各鄉鎮繞來繞去，一路從平鎮、龍潭、關西、新埔、竹北迂迴前進，最後才進入新竹市，整整坐了一個半小時，花了120元，比從台北坐到新竹還貴。不過，能夠坐著公車駛到從來沒去過的各個鄉鎮，看看小鎮的街景，其實很像一個觀光客，有種異地遊覽的奇妙感覺。&lt;br /&gt;　　雖然坐車坐了很久，不過看到了很久不見的 Max, Dave, 阿祥, 阿君, 勇全跟欣達，還有學弟們，實驗室還是跟以前一樣熱熱鬧鬧，總覺得到了離開新竹之後，才漸漸對這個風城有了感情。下個禮拜就要啟程去南台灣了，準備開始另一段新鮮的旅程，彷彿離家愈遠，才能深刻感覺自己的存在，希望可以有好運氣！&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img

type='html'>　　剛剛又看了日劇交響情人夢，裡面有樂團演奏拉赫曼尼諾夫的第二號鋼琴協奏曲。原本對這首曲子一點都不熟悉，因為朋友的推薦才開始聽這首曲子。&lt;br /&gt;　　原本就很喜歡鋼琴協奏曲的我，一開始覺得這首曲子並不是很悅耳，但是常常坐在電腦前就會固定放這首曲子聽，久了竟然就能感受曲子裡的情緒變化，第一樂章鋼琴的部份很棒，但是弦樂伴奏的部份，旋律非常獨特，像是烙印一樣揮之不去。&lt;br /&gt;　　看著日劇，不禁令我十分懷念，想起一些故事，想把拉二放出來聽，但是卻在電腦中怎麼翻怎麼找就是找不到那三個 MP3 檔，到底跑去哪了？&lt;div

/&gt;&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/yunus" rel="tag"&gt;Yunus&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;有機會讀這本書其實蠻多巧合的，前幾個月在商業週刊的封面人物就是 2006 年諾貝爾獎得主 &lt;a href="http://fmkit.blogspot.com/2006/12/change-world.html"&gt;Muhammad Yunus&lt;/a&gt;，我對 Yunus 的工作十分有興趣，只是並沒有立刻想到找相關的書，直到一個禮拜後，我到公館誠品想買一本 2007 年日誌，才偶然看到了這本書。我很少去公館誠品逛，但是後來卻發覺那邊的外文新書很豐富，而且可能是店面不大，找書要比敦南店還要容易多了。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;接下來的時間，我在軍中只要有空檔，就會把這本書拿出來看。這本書嚴格說起來不太像是自傳，而是 Yunus 教授創辦 Grameen Bank 的心路歷程與 Grameen 的成長紀錄。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;生長在經濟起飛之後的台灣，很難感受或是想像所謂「第三世界」國家貧困人民生活之苦，透過 Yunus 教授對於自己祖國孟加拉鄉村地區的描述，更能瞭解到為什麼 Yunus 教授會放棄優渥的生活而投入社會公益組織的行列，當周圍的人都在餓死邊緣看著自己的時候，怎麼忍心在他們面前吃下手中的食物？&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yunus 教授在書中提到許多非營利性公益組織的觀點，跟一般我們想像的不太一樣。我們從小就看到很多公益團體在進行募捐賑災活動，我很少去捐款，因為在我的心中有個疑問：這些錢到底會不會送到災民手中呢？然而 Yunus 教授的理念是，既使錢送到了災民的手中也只能解決一時的問題，更何況是這些錢大部分都被組織龐大的運作經費吸收了，窮人真正需要的是能夠持久生財的工具，「送他們魚，不如送他們一支釣魚竿」，而 micro-credit 就是這支釣魚竿。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;另一個常見的迷思就是：窮人因為太懶惰不肯工作或是沒有一技之長而導致貧窮。Yunus 教授也提醒大家，大多數的窮人都是肯認真工作，並且他們也知道怎麼生存，他們所欠缺的只是機會，因為社會制度的不完善造成他們的賺錢機會被壓抑了。有一句話讓我印象深刻：「窮人才是對抗貧窮的最大力量」，終結貧窮不能只靠有錢人的捐獻。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Grameen Bank 的成功，印證了 not-for-profit 組織在自由市場經濟也是可以生存下去，而且發展得很好，並且他的社會力量與影響力可能還超過一般的營利性質公司企業。未來一般企業可能要改變思考方向，除了賺錢之外，要擁有一個對於社會有貢獻的發展理念，而其實所謂「企業家」與「財閥」的分別就在於此。&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

type='text'>日劇</title><content type='html'>　　利用兩個禮拜的週末，把「不能結婚的男人」看完了。每次我看日劇，都非常佩服日本的導演與編劇，因為日劇的劇情場景通常是比較生活化的，沒有驚天動地的大事件或是殺人放火的震撼劇情，但是卻能利用拍攝手法、布景、劇中的小細節，來營造劇情起伏的變化，編劇都是一般人生活會遇到的情境，反而更能觸動人心，引領觀眾進入劇情中。&lt;br /&gt;　　每次不經意發現導演在劇中悄悄運用這種手法的時候，都能讓觀眾有小小的驚喜，可以說是導演跟觀眾的互動。日本人真的是在這方面很令人佩服，注重細節的程度讓人嘖嘖稱奇。日劇真是讓人看了心情都好了起來呢。&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

/&gt;　　今天跟 Amati 和女王一起到公館的 Starbucks 喝咖啡，每次跟他們聊天，總是讓我有很多收穫，我們聊了有關念博班的事，我很佩服女王和 Amati 對於學術研究的熱忱，他們也對博班這條我未來可能要走的路，給了許多有趣的想法，目前我還在思考念博班的意義，而這一年應該有很多時間可以好好下定決心。我們還聊了很多中正的事，我好久沒回去看老師了，他們卻都還跟老師們保持聯繫，總覺得中正的四年是我對學術最有衝勁的時候，最近想找個週末回去看看。&lt;br /&gt;　　關於未來的工作，Amati 跟我討論，認為應該要有願景，自己的工作如果能夠做到受人敬重，培養自己的專業，才是真正值得的一件事。而生活步調如果過得愜意，時間能夠自由運用，那真的很棒，說來說去好像研究生的生活真的很理想呢。&lt;br /&gt;　　下禮拜老菜跟歐泰普就要去嘉義中坑新訓了，希望他們一路順風，在軍中能夠過得爽。&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img

powerpoint、寫論文，誰也無心去想跨年要去哪裡玩，突然間聽到外面傳來一陣歡呼聲，進入 2006 年了！然後呢？我們抬起頭來相互道賀新年快樂，繼續做著自己的事，套一句大學同學老 JU 的名言，我的心情格外平靜。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;　　這一年正是趕畢業的年頭，在新竹這個地方，我的生活內容很豐富，也可以說是很空白。說豐富是因為在研究論文上下了很大的功夫，忙著設計製程、趕理論分析與模擬、修課。說很空白是因為除了這些，每天的日子都是一樣，沒有高潮迭起曲折離奇，生活像是成功嶺煮出來的湯，有色卻無味。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;　　在這樣的生活內容之中，我心無旁騖的為論文工作，想從這之中為自己累積一點甚麼，時間太趕而野心太大，一次又一次的製程問題、模擬問題、理論問題，一個又一個的 Word 檔、PPT 檔、PDF 檔，堆砌了我一年生活的外牆，處在牆內的是其他領域的生活，暫時被鎖住。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;　　自己覺得最特別的經驗，就是出國發表 conference paper，雖然論文成果不彰，但是仍然厚著臉皮，在六月去了新加坡，九月去了濟州島，給自己一個上台講話歷練的機會。年初考預官、三四五月趕著上課、訓練與製程、七月口試結束、八月趕交論文，十月就去當兵了，研究生的日子只有快而已，快到沒有時間沈澱自己，只有等十月當了兵，每天閒閒沒事只有等放假，才想起要回顧這一年來的種種。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;　　今年我最想感謝的就是實驗室夥伴們，學長姊、同學、學弟妹，一起打拼、一起歡樂與無奈，我對新竹這個地方一點都不熟悉，不過清大因為有這些夥伴們，才讓我有歸屬感。&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

href="http://nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/peace/laureates/2006/press.html"&gt;2006 年諾貝爾和平獎&lt;/a&gt;得主 Muhammad Yunus。出身優渥家庭的 Yunus 在美國接受教育並成為教授，卻甘願放棄優渥的生活，回到戰亂頻仍的祖國孟加拉，希望藉由自己的力量來改變故鄉赤貧人民的生活。&lt;br /&gt;他在孟加拉的貧窮鄉村推動小額借貸銀行制度，創立 Grameen Bank 借錢給沒有財產與抵押品的窮苦人家，藉由金融的力量逐漸改善人民的生活環境，並且使得婦女也有工作的機會。&lt;br /&gt;由於 Yunus 的創見以及行動力，專為窮人服務的小額借貸銀行已經看出成效。幫助赤貧人民提升生活水準，是一個非常重要的議題。全世界還有大多數的人生活在三餐不繼的困境之中，協助他們自立更生比起直接的物資救濟更是長久解決之道。Yunus 所做的努力，正是為了保障人類最基本的生存權，唯有衣食無虞的社會，才可以減少戰亂與傷亡。&lt;br /&gt;偉大的事業不會是由老闆指派給你去做的，Yunus 觀察人們的需要，運用自己的學識，從基礎開始著手推動實踐理念，他的目標是符合社會需要與人民期待的，成就如此充滿榮耀的工作，獲頒諾貝爾和平獎亦可算是錦上添花。&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

/&gt;新訓的生活中，屬於自己的時間是非常零碎的，即使是有自習的時間，也難免不被派去出公差，自從上禮拜回家帶了一本 The World Is Flat 到營區裡讀，一個星期下來，只看了不到十頁，進度非常緩慢。不過，閱讀這個活動是唯一與「民間」有所關連的事情，也最能讓自己覺得生活有進展，所以應該緩慢地持續下去。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;自從當了兵，自己才真正有機會體驗到世界與生活的分割。也許很少有一個職業會像義務役這樣的與世隔絕。舉例來說，上班族做了很多業務，也許累積自己的經驗與實力，也許獲得上司的好評；當警員練槍法、辦案是為了保護自己與市民、提升績效；當兵每日的操課內容是有趣，但是役期結束之後會發現，似乎是沒辦法與民間接軌的，只有體能變好是真的。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br

/&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/fmflake/257329128/" title="Photo Sharing"&gt;&lt;img src="http://static.flickr.com/87/257329128_1427c811e9_m.jpg" alt="She's from China" height="180" width="240" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;在港口稍作停留之後，便一路上問來問去，走了一大段路，到達大長今拍攝地點最著名的 "獨立岩"。那邊的海岸地勢十分壯觀，還遇到一個穿西裝的老伯，出乎我意料之外的是，他竟然說得一口頗為流暢的英語，原來他是在一個首爾的公家機關任職，他很有長輩的風度，並且親切地問候，這是我來濟州後，除了報告 paper 之外，用英語講最多話的一次，他還問我台灣為什麼現在會有群眾抗議運動、總統會不會真的下台。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/fmflake/257329844/" title="Photo Sharing"&gt;&lt;img src="http://static.flickr.com/112/257329844_eded9aed7b_m.jpg" alt="CIMG1017 (Large)" height="180" width="240" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;要離開獨立岩的時候，正愁沒有計程車會開到這裡，正巧有一輛市區公車的司機把車停下來，也許這裡是終點站，所以他下車站在路旁休息，準備開始繞下一趟。於是我上前攀談，希望能找到回旅館的公車，跟他用地圖和破爛的韓語加英文單字溝通了一陣子之後，他終於明白我的意思，於是告訴我 "BUS CHANGE"，又指了指地圖，說 "BUS TERMINAL"。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;十分感謝司機先生，讓我不用走路就可以離開獨立岩，還有機會可以轉搭 BUS 回去中文觀光區。更好運的是，才剛下車踏進 BUS Terminal 裡面，就看到兩個男子身穿紅衣，非常好！他們不是來倒扁的，他們穿的紅衣服正是 ICEM 2006 大會發給的紀念衫。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;很好! 參加會議的人一定會說英文了，說不定他們是要回中文觀光區。遇到會講英文的人，當然不可放過他們，我立刻衝上前詢問要坐哪一台 BUS 回會場。才剛劈頭問了一兩句，就直覺到這兩位先生看起來不像韓國人也不像日本人，於是我改口問"你們會說中文嗎?"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;很高興聽到回答是"當然會!"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;接下來就是在 BUS 上一路使用久違的中文聊天，兩位先生都是從北京來的，而且一位是清大的博士生，一位已經當了助理教授，也是北京清大畢業的。當然不免俗的，他們也要問一下台灣的政局、阿扁總統的憲改等等問題。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a

/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;晚上參加大會舉辦的晚宴，吃的是西餐。晚宴大概是這兩天來我見到出席率最高的時刻了，人數大概有開幕儀式的兩倍以上吧。我坐在一桌韓國人之中，聽著喋喋不休的韓語，突然想念起在新加坡的澳洲黑人，至少他會說英語。現場應該沒有人像我這麼希望可以講英語吧。&lt;div

type='html'>2006/09/27&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;早上到如美地觀光植物園的餐廳吃早餐，在無意之間，沿著餐廳旁的路走進到了植物園，植物園規劃得很好，有各國的園藝造景，美不勝收，還有室內植物園也相當精彩，我是喜歡植物甚於動物的，因此在植物園可以逛得比動物園還久。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;在室內植物園的高塔上眺望整個西歸浦市，可以看到植物園旁有一個瀑布與拱橋，花了一番唇舌與旁邊賣紀念品的小姐問路之下，還是沒辦法用英語溝通，只好自己拿著地圖，念著羅馬拼音的 "CheonJiYen"，向路旁的歐巴桑們問瀑布的入口。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;原來天帝淵瀑布的入口緊臨著植物園，只是全用韓文寫的招牌讓人深怕自己走錯，付了門票走進去，還好真的有一個瀑布！這座瀑布傳說是有七仙女下凡來在瀑布洗澡，瀑布的水是從一個石壁的縫隙中流出來的泉水，附近的空氣特別清新。那座很古意的拱橋叫做臨仙橋，還有一座天帝樓在旁邊，似乎有點眼熟，後來發現那應該是 ICEM 2006 網站的背景。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/fmflake/257325273/" title="Photo Sharing"&gt;&lt;img src="http://static.flickr.com/114/257325273_6dc6139a79_m.jpg" alt="CIMG0836 (Large)" height="180" width="240" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;中午吃了大會提供的午餐，是幾個小碟子裝著韓式醬菜，配上一碗牛小排煮成的清湯，韓國菜總是會有一碟紅得刺眼的辣醬，但其實風味是很清淡的，味道也沒有看起來的這麼辣。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;下午參加 ICEM 的 Opening Ceremony，雖然說是開幕儀式，但是到場的人數並不是很多，有點冷清。接著聽了兩場十分令人想睡的 Planary Lectures，就決定離開會場，到附近的中文海灘散散步。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;到海灘之前，我先到旅館旁的眺望台拍照，在那裡遇到了兩位從首爾來度假的彩妝師，也是要到海灘去。我向他們解釋我是從 Taiwan 來的，其中一個英語稍微好一點的，他想了想就開始說，他有去過 Bangkok，原來他是把 Taiwan 誤認為是 Thailand 啦，雖然兩個音差很多，但我之前在日本時，也被一個韓國人誤會過，以為我是從泰國來的。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;我拿出地圖，指了指臺灣，他們才恍然大悟地說 "Aaah~ Te-Man!"&lt;br /&gt;韓語的"臺灣"聽起來就像是"鐵慢"&lt;br /&gt;於是我之後跟韓國人說臺灣，都直接講"鐵慢"了。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/fmflake/257328077/" title="Photo

Hotel 裡的韓式餐廳大吃一頓，沒想到竟然沒開張。只好徒步走了很久很久，到中文觀光區外面的市街上找尋晚餐的下落，最後決定到一家傳統韓式餐廳去吃，點了一份海鮮火鍋套餐 7000 WON。泡菜辣得讓我喝不下熱燙的湯，而比我慢來的一群韓國上班族吃得非常快，在我還沒吃完之前全都匆匆離去了。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;回到旅館房間，打開電視轉到類似 Channel-V 的 M-NET，看著韓語的 MV，之前覺得韓語音調很怪，現在卻已經習慣了，而且愈是聽不懂看不懂，就愈想把它弄懂，真的是很貪心。睡覺前還特地演練了三次明天早上的 Oral Presentation，並且希望一切順利。&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

type='html'>2006/09/26&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;搭乘遠東航空的班機前往濟州島，從空中鳥瞰全島，只見許多農田與火山地形，非假日的濟州島，人煙十分稀少，整個濟州島感覺像是臺灣的花蓮臺東，是一個風景十分秀麗的度假勝地，但是沒有繁榮的街道與熙來攘往的人群。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;下了飛機，乘坐 Limousine 600 到西歸浦市的中文觀光區，來到 Lotte Hotel Jeju Check-in 之後，便在附近到處走走，在 Seattle's Best Coffee 喝咖啡，在這裡，店員們往往都把我當成日本人，對我說著日文，反而是說英文會讓他們聽不太懂，不過這樣也好，至少用日文問價錢很方便。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;在韓國買東西，金額總是超過 1000 以上，既然都對韓語一竅不通，那麼聽到 "Yi Man Ni Sen WON" 總比聽到 "Twelve Thousand WON" 容易了解一些。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;傍晚回到旅館參加 ICEM 2006 的 Welcome Reception，由於把它當晚餐吃，所以吃了一堆炒飯壽司之類的，又喝了一杯白酒才心滿意足，歡迎會之後，我留在庭院，跟著一大群臺灣觀光客、日本人、美國人、韓國蜜月新人一起等看好戲。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lotte Hotel 最有名的就是有一個假山做成的火山噴泉燈光秀，說是代表太古時代的天地元素，水與火，以及一隻住在洞窟之中的龍，十五分鐘的秀讓大家看得目不轉睛，也為飯店打造知名度。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a

/&gt;從前的我，並不以生在台灣為榮。因為每天在電視看到的、報紙寫的、別人講的，幾乎沒有一個評論是讚揚臺灣的美好。遊學時，曾經有位義大利同學還因此問我：「你們好奇怪，為什麼都不愛自己的國家？我們義大利人絕對以自己的國家為榮！」&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;直到我頻繁地國外的電視、雜誌，透過網路更了解這個世界之後，我才發覺到，比起別的國家來說，臺灣已經是個很美好的社會，大多數的人都有飯吃有衣服穿，恐怖統治已經過去，社會大多是理性、和平的。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;只是我們應該努力讓臺灣變得更好，我對這個寶島還有很多期待。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;[related link from &lt;a

type='html'>　　上個禮拜五，宋教授約我和老菜、女王一起到清大對面的日本料理店吃午餐。宋教授在我大學時代擔任系主任，現在我研究所畢業了，他又當上了這邊的系主任。我們聊的話題很廣泛，從家庭、學業、事業、社會等等，教授十分健談，也願意跟我們分享他的看法。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;　　比較令我印象深刻的，是教授對於子女的管教，比較採取開放的方式，不會強求晚輩一定要做什麼、結不結婚、跟誰結婚等等。印象深刻是因為我對當公務員的人會有一種成見，總覺得他們會想要子女照著自己走過的路徑，平順地再走一次。就算不會強迫，總是會一兩次提出這種"不錯的建議"，希望子女採納。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;　　另一個讓我有收穫的話題，就是未來唸博班的研究方向，因為自己想要改變一下方向，而苦惱到底要從何著手，教授建議我去美國 &lt;a href="http://www.nsf.gov/discoveries/"&gt;NSF&lt;/a&gt; 和 DARPA 的網站，看看他們目前的研究方向作為參考，看來找到自己想要研究的領域，還需要一段時間。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;　　附帶一提，我在 NSF 網站找到一個不錯的科學節目，探討&lt;a href="http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/elegant/program.html"&gt;弦論與新的宇宙理論&lt;/a&gt;。&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

都是要來清大修習課程。於是在週六與週日，我便帶著他們去認識校園、採買民生必需品、忙著處理大小瑣事，順便陪他們聊天。在遇見他們之前，瑞典對我來說是一個非常陌生的國家，只知道 Volvo 和 Saab 是瑞典出產的，就連 Discovery 的旅遊生活頻道都很少介紹到瑞典。不過在跟他們聊天之後，對瑞典人的生活有了粗淺的認識，幸好他們的英文都說得蠻好的，在溝通上不需要比手畫腳。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;　　這幾天的接待讓我對生活有更深的感觸，當一個人進入全新的環境時，會立刻很明顯地分別得出對自己重要與次要的生活事務。舉個例子，當你來到一個人生地不熟的國家，也許找到地方洗澡與吃飯才是第一要緊的事，但是當我們居住在自己習慣已久的環境時，這些東西都被當作理所當然、默默地在背景存在著，到這個時候，也許定時看八點檔連續劇才讓自己有"過生活"的感覺。偶爾換個新環境，才會從各種挑戰之中，發現那從來不曾認識的自己。&lt;div

Graham Greene 的長篇小說看完一遍。自從六月在人社院圖書館借了這本書，一直到八月才終於看完它，Our Man in Havana 應該可以算是我第一本真正看完的長篇英文小說吧。會想看這本小說是因為有一陣子逛誠品的時候，架上擺了一大堆黃色書皮的"哈瓦納特派員"中文譯本，引起了我的興趣，加上 Graham Greene 又是頗有名氣的英國作家，於是忍著不買中文本，跑到人社院第下室成堆的小說中找到了英文原著。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;英國人 Mr. Wormold 是在 Havana 銷售吸塵器的商人，只可惜生意並不好，他的女兒 Milly 漸漸長大，家裡的開銷逐漸不堪負荷，Wormold 必須想個辦法。這時候他遇上了 Hawthrone，一個英國來的情報員，他僱用 Wormold 在 Havana 收集情報。對情報工作一竅不通的 Wormold 只好製造了一堆假情報傳回英國，故事就這樣展開了。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;這個故事帶著嘲諷的意味，將看似嚴謹而權威的情報任務化作幽默滑稽的題材，由於我的英文字彙還不夠多，無法完全體會字裡行間隱藏的玄機，不過單就故事本身劇情的安排，可以說是一部激起讀者想像力的好作品。另外一個感想是，如果要增加英文字彙能力，看小說可以瞬間增加許多課本裡看不到的形容詞與動詞。&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img

important to me?" or "what do I really wanna do?" I think it is a question that everyone should ask him/herself over and over, until he/she gets the answer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Recently from &lt;a href="http://curtrosengren.typepad.com/occupationaladventure/2006/07/whats_really_im.html"&gt;Curt Rosengren's blog&lt;/a&gt;, he wrote a sad story and reminded us to figure out the answer of the very important question: "What's really important to you?" Last week I saw the movie "Hotel Rwanda." And after the movie I also had the same question: "What is really important to human?"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In my life, there are certainly some things important than others. And my opinion? Care about things that make you happy and spend time on something good for this world.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/23218976-115453462691029904?l=fmkit.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://fmkit.blogspot.com/feeds/115453462691029904/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://fmkit.blogspot.com/2006/08/whats-really-important.html#comment-form' title='5 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23218976/posts/default/115453462691029904'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23218976/posts/default/115453462691029904'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://fmkit.blogspot.com/2006/08/whats-really-important.html' title='What&apos;s really important?'/><author><name>farmer</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03066088885526551679</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>5</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23218976.post-115416179528122230</id><published>2006-07-29T03:14:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2006-07-29T03:29:55.290-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='life'/><title type='text'>After Final Defense</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/fmflake/178257254/" title="Photo Sharing"&gt;&lt;img src="http://static.flickr.com/71/178257254_572a25568e_m.jpg" alt="Sentosa" height="180" width="240" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I've just passed the final defense of my thesis.

type='html'>人與人之間的相處，是生活中最複雜的問題。人際關係上所謂的「成功」，並非如同事業、學業一樣去達成某種目標，不是名利雙收也不像攻讀學位；處理自己與周遭人們的關係，首重「和諧」二字。這個「成功」才是最難達成的，卻也是可能讓我們通往幸福的一扇門。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;其實每個人都有獨特的性格，有著迥異的生活價值觀，也都有各自的矛盾與掙扎。你認為是好東西，你身邊的他可能不這麼認為。處理這種衝突的時候，「包容」與「尊重」就比「理性」和「邏輯」有用得多。但是每個人也都有自己所堅持的原則與理想，學著去溝通協調，在自己的理想與別人的理想之間做個妥協，是一種需要練習的生活智慧。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;一個人在生活中都擔任著多個不同的角色，讓自己扮演的角色能夠彼此不衝突，尋找一個平衡點，就是通往幸福的和諧。&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

href="http://technorati.com/tag/movie" rel="tag"&gt;movie&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;剛剛跟老妹看了一部影片，是王家衛導演、梁朝偉與張曼玉主演的"花樣年華"。這部片劇情其實很悶，但是不知道是否自己對悶片特別有好感，我欣賞一部電影很少是因為它的故事情節精彩 -- 喜歡故事情節的人我比較建議看連續劇。比較能吸引我的是電影的拍攝手法與整體風格 -- 有如閱讀新詩或是短篇小說一般，它能帶給我的是一種存在於作品中的感覺。每次看完一部電影就像是沾染了那部片的氣息，像是喝完每一杯不同的飲料之後，唇齒間留下的味道。每次我欣賞到一部"很對味"的電影，無論劇情是多麼令人枯燥煩悶，都還是能看得津津有味而且看完了還能回味不已，我只能說，氣氛真的很重要啊~&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"花樣年華"這部片描述一對各自已婚的男女之間的戀情，片中的懷舊西裝與旗袍、上海風格配樂、狹窄舊樓房與粗茶淡飯，都為這部片增添不少有趣的元素。男女主角因為在意外界的眼光，暗中進行著連親吻擁抱都不敢的戀情，在今日看來也許是太過天真，而正因為單純得可愛，本片中雙方沒有未來的戀情，才在結束的時候更顯得深深的無奈與哀愁。&lt;div

There are things happened every moment, surprising, exciting, and fun. The foreign friends here make this city even more special.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This afternoon I was on a bus. I just finished my haircut and went back home. I have to prepare for the German exam which is 3 days later. I decided to study for the exam when I go back. I sat down on a seat and suddenly hear someone talking to the cellphone.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Ja, ja. Jetzt bin ich im Bus. Ich gehe einkaufen..." That was a woman talking. I was surprised because this is my first time hearing a taiwanese speaking German on a bus. "Wir um 11 Uhr schlafen und um 7 Uhr aufstehen. Rufen Sie..." She continued talking to the cellphone. She talked not too fast and with simple sentences, therefore I can understand almost every sentence.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm surprised because she is a very common woman. I would never notice her because she acted like other 40-year-old woman on the bus -- sitting on the seat and staring outside the bus window. But it is when she picked up the phone, an invisible spotlight was on. Other people wouldn't know what she was talking. But she wouldn't know that I could understand her words. A foreign language is like an encryption. If you can use more languages, you can get more information than others. And that is why I have fun learning foreign languages.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/23218976-114690708268430367?l=fmkit.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://fmkit.blogspot.com/feeds/114690708268430367/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://fmkit.blogspot.com/2006/05/taipei-international.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23218976/posts/default/114690708268430367'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23218976/posts/default/114690708268430367'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://fmkit.blogspot.com/2006/05/taipei-international.html' title='Taipei, International'/><author><name>farmer</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03066088885526551679</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23218976.post-114607144299757003</id><published>2006-04-26T11:55:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2007-08-18T01:42:33.050-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='life'/><title type='text'>惡搞</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/life" rel="tag"&gt;life&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;最近常常在做臨時抱佛腳的事情，有一種很虛的感覺，希望這段時間可以靜下來好好專注在研究上，要累積一些成果再去發表才會踏實。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;提醒自己，要擁有趣味的、真正想過的生活方式，無論是在研究上或是其他方面，別浪費自己的青春啊！還有要鍛鍊體力以及維持健康！&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;找‧回‧自‧己&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/fmflake/132855636/" title="Photo Sharing"&gt;&lt;img src="http://static.flickr.com/53/132855636_984e47eea1_m.jpg" width="134" height="240" alt="Standing" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/23218976-114607144299757003?l=fmkit.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://fmkit.blogspot.com/feeds/114607144299757003/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://fmkit.blogspot.com/2006/04/blog-post_27.html#comment-form' title='6 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23218976/posts/default/114607144299757003'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23218976/posts/default/114607144299757003'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://fmkit.blogspot.com/2006/04/blog-post_27.html' title='惡搞'/><author><name>farmer</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03066088885526551679</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>6</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23218976.post-114585069735888761</id><published>2006-04-23T22:29:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2007-08-18T01:42:33.052-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='life'/><title type='text'>Afternoon with hsuyo</title><content type='html'>&lt;a style="font-family: arial;" href="http://technorati.com/tag/taipei101" rel="tag"&gt;Taipei101&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a style="font-family: arial;" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/fmflake/133457113/" title="Photo Sharing"&gt;&lt;img src="http://static.flickr.com/54/133457113_d146bef13b_m.jpg" alt="At 4th floor, hsuyo" height="180" width="240" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a style="font-family: arial;" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/fmflake/133457175/" title="Photo Sharing"&gt;&lt;img src="http://static.flickr.com/56/133457175_f04e570355_m.jpg" alt="At 4th floor, farmer" height="180" width="240" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;Taipei 101 is probably the most visited spot when I am in Taipei. This time I wanna buy a shirt for the coming summer days. We first went to Nautica inside Taipei 101. The shirts by Nautica cost at least 1,000 NT$, which is not a low price. And later we went into the Tommy Hilfiger shop. It will take us more than 2,000 NT$ for each shirt there. Okey, I know that. The imported goods are always taxed and SHOULD be tagged with a higher price. There's nothing wrong with this!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;But hsuyo told me that he went to outlets and malls in the U.S last year, and bought shirts for 19 US$. That is surprising to me! 19 US$ is 700 NT$.

This time I spent my birthday in Taipei with my family and my friends. It's great!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This picture was taken in a German restaurant near my home. Cliff, Irving, Ciff's brother and I had a funny talk there. That afternoon, &lt;a href="http://blog.hsuyo.info/"&gt;hsuyo&lt;/a&gt; and I had a surprising schedule doing part-time computer service for an ad design house -- $300 and a lunch box was the reward. I went to see the movie "Inside Man" with my family. The story is quite interesting but the style is not exciting enough. Anyway, I enjoyed the film.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the end of March, I've also finished the full paper for APCOT2006, a conference in Singapore this June. It seems that I have to work harder and prepare in advance to make it a success.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And, here I wanna say "CONGRATULATIONS!" to &lt;a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/fmflake/110504371/"&gt;Keita&lt;/a&gt; in Tokyo.

Again, there was always a deadline that pushes me around.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And recently visited the Singapore travel promotional &lt;a href="http://www.visitsingapore.com/publish/stbportal/en/index.html"&gt;website&lt;/a&gt;, the style and design of this website is great. After looking at some attractive and impressive themes, for example, gourmet, beach, or culture, I felt like going to Singapore right away! Viewing this website is easy and fun. You don't have to dig into stack of information. Interest things just flow into your eyes, like a stream.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I wonder if we have such a nice website in &lt;a href="http://www.taiwan.net.tw/lan/cht/index/index.asp"&gt;Taiwan&lt;/a&gt;. I thought this website could be by far IMPROVED! There are much more places to go, things to see, food to eat in Taiwan. However, I think this site is more likely made by a newspaper publisher. All the attractions are hyper-linked in a page, in a &lt;a href="http://202.39.225.132/jsp/Eng/html/attractions/index.jsp"&gt;distributed way&lt;/a&gt;. Therefore I cannot decide to go to Sun Moon Lake or Yanmingshan National Park, or I don't even know that I have to drive half a day to reach the other spot. Sometimes I was thinking that, if I was a foreigner, would I feel comfortable traveling in Taiwan?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/23218976-114399250966747618?l=fmkit.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://fmkit.blogspot.com/feeds/114399250966747618/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://fmkit.blogspot.com/2006/04/conference-in-singapore.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23218976/posts/default/114399250966747618'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23218976/posts/default/114399250966747618'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://fmkit.blogspot.com/2006/04/conference-in-singapore.html' title='The Singapore Conference'/><author><name>farmer</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03066088885526551679</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23218976.post-114252410776169109</id><published>2006-03-16T09:38:00.000-06:00</published><updated>2007-08-18T01:42:33.054-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='life'/><title type='text'>The first journal paper</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/journal" rel="tag"&gt;journal&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;上學期忙著寫 paper 就是為了投稿今年下半年預定在韓國濟州島舉辦的 ICEM2006 研討會，此研討會的投稿若是被接受，則會直接刊載至期刊 &lt;a href="http://www.ttp.net/web/search/j_detail.cfm?ID=4"&gt;KEY ENGINEERING MATERIALS&lt;/a&gt;

&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/podcasting" rel="tag"&gt;podcasting&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Recently I started my plan - to improve my English listening skill. I've searched the podcast websites and found several nice podcasts. The most useful podcasts are the &lt;a href="http://www.toeflpod.com/scripts/scripts.html"&gt;TOEFL podcast&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://www.englishthroughstories.com/"&gt;English Through Stories&lt;/a&gt;, and &lt;a href="http://www.eslpod.com/"&gt;English as a Second Language Podcast&lt;/a&gt;, all issued by the Center for Educational Development. These podcasts are in the lecture style and suitable for those who wanna improve their english.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another interesting podcast is from Lonely Planet, the &lt;a href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/podcasts/"&gt;Travelcasts&lt;/a&gt;. It is relatively difficult for me because there are interviews of travelers around the world. Some of the travelers are not native speakers of english. It is somewhat challenging for me to understand them in the interviews.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Still another podcast is &lt;a href="http://www.earthsky.org/shows/"&gt;Earth &amp;amp; Sky&lt;/a&gt;. It talks mostly about earth science and environment, kind of like Discovery.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I use &lt;a href="http://juicereceiver.sourceforge.net/index.php"&gt;Juice&lt;/a&gt; to subscribe to those podcasts.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/23218976-114195236884306709?l=fmkit.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://fmkit.blogspot.com/feeds/114195236884306709/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://fmkit.blogspot.com/2006/03/improving-your-english.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23218976/posts/default/114195236884306709'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23218976/posts/default/114195236884306709'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://fmkit.blogspot.com/2006/03/improving-your-english.html' title='Improving Your English'/><author><name>farmer</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03066088885526551679</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23218976.post-114139170024040945</id><published>2006-03-03T06:58:00.000-06:00</published><updated>2007-08-18T01:42:33.056-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='life'/><title type='text'>The old-fashioned</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/taiwan" rel="tag"&gt;taiwan&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/fmflake/106813923/" title="Photo Sharing"&gt;&lt;img src="http://static.flickr.com/48/106813923_019e0a3405_m.jpg" alt="old-fashioned rice storage" height="240" width="180" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt; A duck walking in front of an old-fashioned rice-storage. The rice-storage is rarely seen in modern Taiwan society, even in the country side. It was once an important food supply at the time when the supermarket doesn't exist.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/23218976-114139170024040945?l=fmkit.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://fmkit.blogspot.com/feeds/114139170024040945/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://fmkit.blogspot.com/2006/03/old-fashioned.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23218976/posts/default/114139170024040945'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23218976/posts/default/114139170024040945'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://fmkit.blogspot.com/2006/03/old-fashioned.html' title='The old-fashioned'/><author><name>farmer</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03066088885526551679</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
