Pictures with Roomates in Robes

What a strange day it was! Rain and sunshine took turns showing up when my roomates and I were having time taking pictures together in Pantheon of Cheng-Kung Jheng. It was really beautiful outside the pantheon. Green grass, old banyans, an old bridge and a pool made an extraordinary grounds. Things are always going in the way that we try to capture the times of joy especially when it has gone near the end. This was the first time to take pictures with my roomates in robes and of course the last time.
A few days later and we are no longer students. Sometimes time really goes so fast that we hardly perceive it. Actually why I don't want to let go the feelings is the friendship and happy days I got here. Friendship is indeed worth cherishing.

Being a Student in Class on My Last Day of My University Life

Time seemed to go so slowly today. I had a softball exam, linux exam, reporting PHP and animation performance. The days before today are going to be my memory. It is a real turning of my life. No more going to school for having classes. No more! No more! We're getting closer to our unemployment. Haha!!

Kaohsuing Film Festival

For winning the first prize of the Kaohsiung Movie Festival,100,000 NTD, my friends and I involved ourselves into making a 10 minutes long movie. We haven't decided the name of it yet though it's been worked on. We set off at 6 o'clock in the morning from Tainan to Kaohsiung City because the film is ruled to be recorded 1/4 or more in Kaohsiung. We had no choice but to took a 2 hour-long motorcycle trip to Kaohsiung. At first we met at the waterfront of the Love River and began our film at the scene of the beautiful riverside. Then we went to 西子灣(SiZihWan),旗津(CiJin) and the light house there. At noon,圓圓(XXX)took us to enjoy the famous noodle store which was known by its 餛飩(hundun)and deepfried porksteaks. Later we filmed at the busy street and ended up filming in 圓圓(XXX)'s house.
I am sure the time is the last time I do something with my favorite friends in university because we are about to separate back to our hometown on the day of 6/10. How sorrowful! I do cherish every moment we are together. It's the last time we have the chance to produce a film of our own. I still remember the first MV we made 少年(the early youth)and 顯靈(the Signal)-a big movie then this one and these are definitely my precious belongings forever whatever the result the film will get.

e95 教育系畢業班 謝師宴

今晚，6點30開演的謝師宴，由甲乙丙三班合辦，地點：福樓，人數：100多人。
除了三班的導師之外，只來了少數的老師(6位)，我原本以為會有2~3桌的老師，原來是我想太多了，他們說這是常態，別驚訝。宴會整個感覺滿有趣的，整個宴會下來十分熱鬧，沒有冷場，主持人是小黃和瓊文，張博真代表致詞，之後也由許多學生上台致詞，表達感謝。我覺得，這四年來受到台南大學的栽培，雖在未來的路上因時勢所逼，沒有機會展現，而在許多方面上沒有像理工學系的學生，有著一份有數據證明的技能，我們教育系學到人文，是一些內在的充實，對於價值觀與社會上種種的認知遠比其他學生受到更專業的訓練。或許這是在這個沒有教師缺額的時代中，對我們這些準失業新鮮人的安慰吧！快畢業了，下禮拜是最後一個禮拜，好感傷阿！要脫離學生的身份真的是一種很複雜的心情，原來我們也長大了，承擔的責任越來越重，再過幾年，都要養自己，養父母了。

歸仁送養會

今天的成果豊碩，送出犬貓15隻，很多，可說是破紀錄，真是太好了。今天天氣有點悶熱，可是有好多義工，除了我們協會的，還有其他的協會，網路上的家族等。看到大家都認真地為了流浪的小貓小狗奉獻，就覺得這個社會有陽光，真好!!^^
唯一讓人不開心的是有位婦人問我們說她家附近有一些小狗，可不可以送來送養。其實我們也挺無奈的，我們已經有好多狗送不完了，而且今天帶來的狗兒都是受過許多檢查的，怎麼可以讓這個活動成為民眾解決家旁流浪狗的問題呢?只是不管如何，可憐到的是小狗，我們答應了，條件是活動結束後小狗若是沒送走，她要再把小狗帶回原地野放。她也答應了，只是待了一下後，趁我們忙亂中不見了。唉!可憐的小狗，三隻沒送走，我們義工們也根本沒有地方可以收，大家早就額滿了>< 因為這名婦女的自私(也或許她是忘了)，害我們在結束後的暗夜裡替小狗的去處想辦法...

地獄新娘Corpse Bride

The movie was on today!! It's Corpse Bride! It is a movie directed by Tim Burton who had made the special movie "The nightmare before Christmas" and astonished me when I was in 8th grade. The movie was about a man who had an engagement with his lover, but accidentally vowed his marriage with a dead girl. Then it went excitingly with how he managed the circumstance smoothly and tried not to hurt both girls' hearts. But the ending turned out to be a surprising one that he gave up to get back to earth to marry his fiancee but to stay with his wife in the hell. That's how brave and kind he is that made the corpse bride surrendered to her own selfishness and let her only one husband go back to marry his lover.
The point stands on the braveness the actor had, which made him to let go the girl he loved the most that,therefore,triggered the miracle.

KFC-Talk with Taiyen

Today was really a nice day because I went to eat KFC with my buddy,Taiyen. The exhilarating part was not just in the person I ate with, but the fast food that called me back to the times when I was in USA. Pepsi & fried chicken really brings me back to the deepest part of my desire wherever I am because the flavor of the meals they makes is totally the same.
Another point of the dinner with Taiyen was the talk about friends between us in the four-year university life and our own childhoods. Life goes so fast that Taiyen & I both thought the day we went into the auditorium for freshman's starting school ceremony was just like it happened yesterday. Lots of lots memories full in our minds made the most beautiful masterpiece of the world. Sometimes life seems to be very easy when we compliment things we met and disregard the dark sides. Maybe I didn't observe it well so I felt it to be hard sometimes, but at least I'd learned humbleness to interact with people,educational skills and made friends. How precious those memories were!
Then the talk turned to the times in our childhood. It astounded me that we had some memoryies in common. Have you ever evaded mother's notice and carried toys you just bought into the house secretly when you were young? We do. Thnks for Taiyen's time for talking with me. I appreciate your experince and advice to my interaction with some friends. Wish you a rosy life!

MiMi Affair

What a surprise! Today is Auntie Lynn's birthday. I didn't know it until I was asked to have a piece of birthday cake when I stepped into Seeds. I went up stairs to ask for a piece and got a piece of special shape of cake. It's ball-shape and covered with sweet and pink candy outside with a bulge on its top, which made me curious about the original shape of the cake. Auntie Lynn told me the pink ball was a cap and turned to be like this by their cutting to share the cake. Actually, I thought it was shaped like a woman's breast but I was afraid of asking that.
However,I got my doubt cleared after I went down and corrected the students' homework. Sarah said "I heard that the big mimi was eaten by someone",which hardly hit me on my funky heart. God!! It was really a half part of the breast and I was lied to eating it. Anyway...Happy Birthday,Lynn!!!^^

Nico&皮皮

Nico&皮皮～These two cute cats came to stay at my place on 3/31. They're Vicky's lovely cats and they'll be staying at my place for at least 6 months for the sake of Vicky's going to USA to study. They are cute and lovely. I think they are a little bit shy,but they come to find us sometimes. I just can't get them.

Trickster...卡巴拉島!!

最近竟然迷上這款遊戲，卡巴拉島，想到3月24日禮拜五一開始公測，我也跟著圓圓註冊，開始起靡爛的大學生活來，也罷，5月中就要畢業的半個社會人，還能有多少逍遙的日子可過呢?
不過這靡爛可不是好當的，幾天的熬夜，讓原本正常作息的我感覺身體變虛弱了。連右手也好像怪怪的，同一個姿勢握滑鼠太久造成的酸痛。唉呀，人真的老了，根本禁不起熬夜和惡搞身體。
這段熱潮持續了約一個星期，現在已經降溫了，哈哈，真是還好，誰說對事情有三分鐘熱度是不好的呢?要不拜它所賜，我現在應該已經倒在那裡了吧!!
不過玩這些東西其實也是有學問的，像是之前買了手機之後，才發現手機可以改原廠設定，加補丁，讓我知道原來「玩」手機是指這個；這個也是，選角，能力值的搭配等等，都會影響日後角色的能力。而這些資訊全都在論壇裡，藉著網路，讓許多技能和知識可以非常快速地傳遞。

工作.........是生活..........

這學期開始後，上課對我來說像是上補習班，一個禮拜一天；而打工，像是我的生活，一個禮拜四天。真是特別的感覺，像是已經半出社會，每天要固定時間上班，偶爾才去學校上個課。
School的工作其實不難，我的工作算是儲備人員，開始學習帶小孩子，學習在他們之中建立權威。天天下4點到達，接下只剩2名小孩的安親班，然後，4點20分到2F吃點心，4點半，美小3，4年級來了，一群感覺餓很多天的小孩來了，每次忙得我一直把食物放到他們的碗裡，頭也一直低低的，剛吃完第一次馬上來吃第二次，等到我可以把頭抬起來時，孩子們不是吃完走人，就是快吃完了，留下地上一些些三不管地帶的渣渣、屑屑，太可惡了。要叫誰整理呢.......只能怪自己手腳不夠利落，沒辦法一邊忙一邊監督。然後，是可愛的美小1，2年級，人比較少，比較好控制，可以要求他們先說"May I have some snack,please!","May I have some drink,please!"，才給食物和飲料。還有時間提醒他們把桌子和地板整理乾淨，這兩班帶起來就比較有成就感。
吃完點心了，一些小孩子會留在2F等家長，這時我就要管理秩序，最喜歡他們要求我看錄影帶"May I watch video?" 當我很輕快地說"OK!"時，他們就會飛快地去拿一部影片，他們很開心，我也樂得很呢!看影片讓他們變得很安靜，我也就不必費力地管秩序。
Auntie Lynn是廚房的煮飯媽媽，據姊姊說她的廚藝精湛，看得出來，每次看著她做著好吃的便當，看到羨慕她的孩子。這群吃點心的小鬼們也是好幸福，真是不懂得惜福，還在那挑食。有時候，Auntie Lynn會把剩下的食物給我，她總是要我幫她吃，其實我才覺得是我渴望她留給我吃呢!呵呵....住在外面才會了解媽媽的家鄉味是多麼令人想念。
這份工作已經慢慢改變我的生活，我的觀念，我的交際，我的一切，從中學習並了解這個社會。我想，關於踏入社會的起點，我是選對地方了。^^

the Fact Changes

Since I read the editorial of the Brokeback Mountain,which mentioned some of the judges haven't even seen the movie that turned out to be awarded only three prizes,including Adapted screenplay,Achievement in music written for motion pictures (Original score),Achievement in directing but Best motion picture of the year won by Crash. The nations around the globe are thriving to get to the top place the Americans reached and it does show the promising way to the triumph they are on is closer. A period of years later,the developed countries get more,which meanwhile implies strong countries get more. Perhaps the mankind on this planet will be more wise and intelligent and there will be no counrty doing what they want just because they are big and powerful. The fact changes and the destiny of the mankind changes.

Meet Boston with You

Today may be a beautiful day for me. Since there is a beginning in Boston,there are people who make the story go on in Taiwan. Eva,Evonne,Kieran and I had a good time eating lunch in Little Star Restaurant and seeing horror movie today. Though I've broken up with Eva,but we conquered the embarrassment and had some talk luckily. I got to admit that the talk somehow brought me back to the good times when we're still together. Still miss you........
Boston is no longer a place name for me but a part of my treasurable memory. The life experience which includes the joy,unhappiness,suspicion and hilarity among we Taiwanese students has been in a significant place in my mind. I hope you do,too. I really had a good time throwing and catching the football with you,Kieran,and having lunch,movie and nice talk with you three today. What a wonderful day it was!! I am so happy and may God bless you.

228 烏漆媽黑工作日

今天雖是228，國定假日，但是我們協會的義工們可沒閒著，約莫中午時分，大家紛紛來到，開始今天的工作，圍起兔子的欄杆。感動的是，竟然有人遠從台北南下幫忙，這可以知道這世界上旣然會有對動物這麼痴愛的人，讓我倍感辛慰。
今天的我，漸漸認同協會所做的一切，也漸漸開心成為協會的一員。也許是這些台北愛心人士的感化，也也許是在2月初的那埸寵物世界的認養活動中，看到協會新印的DM上的一則故事：在一個海邊，有個人邊走著邊撿起沙灘上的海星往海裡丟。我看到了就上前詢問，他說，海水退潮了，這些海星來不及回去，等等太陽出現，他們會被晒死的，我正把他們一隻隻丟回大海。我笑著說，先生，你可知道這個海岸有多長，而這些海星又有多少，你真的以為你這樣子做，可以為這些海星的命運做何改變嗎？他繼續走著，撿起一枚海星，往大海丟了過去，說道：這對這枚海星來說可就不同了。
義工的角色就是不同於一般人，能多救一條生命，他們就會盡力去做，即使知道每年還是有一堆人在丟狗，有9成的狗無人認養而遭安樂死，但他們眼中總不見那如精衛填海的辛苦，他們的焦點總是放在每一隻狗的身上，看到這些人，也就像是看到社會的希望。期待，有一天，人類能和動物和平共處，別再以萬物之靈自居荼毒萬物了。也希望能有更多更多的人一起來幫忙丟海星，加速夢想實現。

NUTN E95B commencement trip.....乙班畢業旅行

This was my last time to get a chance for a commencement trip. And it ended today. What a pity but a beautiful memory! I am glad to conclude my university life this way. During this journey,we sang songs all the way on the bus to many destinations, Leofoo Village Zoo六褔村野生動物園, Taipei City, Chiufen九份, Ilan宜蘭, Hualien花蓮, Taitung台東, which showed our enthusiasm for our own class and the trip. The climax of the trip I think is the night we spent at Shangrila Recreation Farm because we were its only customers that night, so we enjoyed their totally service and activities hold by them. We were just like the rich who bought the whole place for one night gaudeamus-BBQ, poker games. the most popular game of the angel and the devil.

(Pic:圓圓,一隻羊,臺晏 and I were standing in front of an old old Japanese building.)

Then we had fun in Taitung. We had a gerat experience of the attractive hot spring there. And as there is a beginning, it comes to the end for sure. We waved the wonderful trip goodbye, which meant the goodbye to our friendship in university. So sad! I love the feeling of being a student. No economic pressure and hesitation of independence are the merits of being a student but also a dodge of the face of being grown-up. I know I will be out of the shelter of my family before long and I have to prepare for that beforehand.

Say bye to the past and say hi to the coming! Kev!

Signal......顯靈!!

一部我們嘔心瀝血的大作品阿!!



Signal顯靈終於在大家的催生下，即將完成。
　　今晚，大家將趕在19日早晨10點繳交作業，剪接、配樂、字幕分工合作，四部電腦一起工作，感受到工作室的忙碌，很忙很趕，卻玩得很開心。最後壓成DVD來播放讓明天的大家驚訝一下。想想，這部片"顯靈"早從期初9月底決定，圓圓、喵、菲菲、燒ET、酋長、阿容和我即在10月開始構想劇本，開會3次，擬出一份大綱，再由喵、菲菲、我把腳本完成。接著才是重頭戲，開拍，也許是沒拜拜，真是遇到太多波折了。加上第一次，拍得好累，只要一有空，就是拍片，也往往拍了2個小時的片，看一看只可用30秒，NG...NG...NG...累。12月12日開始集中實習，中間完全不能拍，直到12月底才又開始拍，這時還有1/3還沒拍，又要趕在1/18交作品，想想我們還真是有夠強的。DV帶買了10幾卷，又因為在今晚之前可以作業的電腦相處異地，為了校片還要燒出一片片的dvd，帶到學校交換。這部片子是我們大學生涯的記錄之一，是在當初不管老師的學分營養，而堅持要做出來的，畢竟大學四年，我們這群好友想給自己留個回憶。

Multi-CHOICE.....hard one

Where to go? Kevin? Why can the whole world become so wild that seems to be everything existing but beside my side? One more semester and I am a freshman in the society of chaos. To joining part of the circle of cram school, to go on and study or to grab the vacancy of the teacher. By choosing which one could I be on the right way toward success?
I know Daniel is waiting for me and of course it's an easy-get job. But the more easier I can get it, the more I feel unsure about what my aim is. My family needs money for sure, and that confuses me the most.
After the next week, I am going to do my first task the school committed to me. Loving it or not takes time to test.

week #16..It's final count down....

從美國打工回來一轉眼就過了3個月...天哪!!!日子過得很快，大四上快結束了～我人生中唯一一次的大四上，上大學後最忙的一學期，再兩個禮拜結束了，但沒完成那成堆的報告就不算結束，是真的，成堆的報告堆滿我的記事本，每天每天都有不同的討論、報告..........How I miss the work in USA. There are work and days off over there. But I know what I actually need for my future.
生活在這時代真是很不容易的一件事，每個人要挑戰的是自己，是否要繼續走下去的動力。再過沒幾年，就將成為社會新鮮人了，似乎還沒做好準備...keep on going, man!!

Finally,the end comes.....it's over!

該來的....還是來了，彼此都沒心吧，不然怎能說放就放？一千萬個理由比不上一句不喜歡，原來，短短5分鐘之隔的兩校，也可以有這般遠的距離...一切的回憶回到原點，Boston...我們還是忘記了吧，甚至把那份溫暖，那份感覺遺留在那，忘在熟悉的Square１ Mall，放在Harvard Square......，或是Downtown Crossing外的街上...通往Square１ Mall的Route１， 很長很長，陪著你走的雙腳卻不這麼覺得，牛奶好重好重，拿著它的手卻不那樣認為。宮廷式的中國餐廳似乎近在眼前，呼嚣而過的車聲亦十分刺耳，夢中出現的情景一再的上演，牽著你手的溫度卻慢慢降溫，抓不回...任何一絲絲快樂...
大學四年以來最忙的一學期，壓力最大的一年，原本以為一切都可以因為你而甘之如飴，一個月的不連絡早就慢慢澆熄我的心，為什麼我要堅持不打給你呢？這個月到底發生什麼事...讓你的未來不容許我，累死了...早知道，12月02日就不要遇到你，寧可從此了無音訊，也不願就此將這份感情停住。我該繼續追嗎？事情會有我想像的未來嗎？我到底要不要繼續追...會再一次的受傷嗎？

at a loss........

What a pity that after the busiest days of composing lesson plans comes the easiest days I longed for a lot and I have no idea what to do. I lost a goal to chase for even a world to dream of. That's really called pity. 6 days passed or maybe I can say about 1 month passed, I never get any of your sound. I am sure now I'm not good at handling this kind of affection. So sad.......... It is sure to be more strong when I am out of pressure.
