7月31日 小感动今天收到的一封久未联系的朋友的邮件，非常感动。It really made my day.
 Maybe that's what friends are for."...
I hope that you are not getting too stressed out with your work. I don't know when your next semester starts, but if ever need to get away to relax before you start classes or any other time, I could as one friend to another buy your airline tickets to Myrtle Beach. There's no obligation at all, but it's nice and warm here and there is a lot to do. Think about it.
... " 7月26日 今天继续荡妇和贱男的故事。
贱男已于周三向荡妇求婚成功，果然花重金买了一克拉的钻戒。我今天才知道他们已经订婚的消息。另外听那个女的自己说了一个骇人的消息，原来她自己也搞不清孩子的父亲是谁（因为她怀孕时同时跟两个男人有亲密关系，但是肯定不是我的“贱男”朋友），最近要去做亲子鉴定。
 今天荡妇要去购物，硬要拉我一起去。能感觉出来她有些想讨好我，或许是想要拉拢贱男的朋友的缘故？ 不过人家既然敬我一尺，我也要面子上过得去才行不是，于是我去了。但是觉得十分不自在。我承认一方面是因为我对她有成见，但是另一方面我觉得我跟她实在谈不来，今天她一直跟我说她的牛仔裤有多贵，她背的包包要上千美元，云云。我越听越没劲。 算了，人各有志，实在不应妄加评论。她愿意说，我就借个耳朵给她，做忠实听众好了。不过我现在回想起来，今天对她着实有些冷淡，话也没说几句，想来心里竟然有点内疚。算了，下次稍微热情点好了，不过不管怎么说，不是同路人，硬要一起玩也很别扭。有礼有节我是肯定会做到的，但是要有多亲密我看就不必了。
晚饭在Olive Garden 吃，pork filettino, 吃得肚子滚圆，又要长膘啦。
Randy Pausch Passed Away.卡纳基梅隆大学教授Randy Pausch昨天病逝。去年8月他被告知患了胰腺癌，只剩下3-6个月的时间了。但是他仍以顽强、乐观的精神过好生命里剩下的每一分钟。去年他做的“最后一次演讲”在网上广为流传，确实启发了很多人重新思考生命的意义。我从去年起经常去他的博客关注他的病情，今天突然看到他病逝了，心里有些难过。
愿他一路走好。 7月24日 伤离梦想那么近，离梦想又那么远。
美国首屈一指的医疗中心，久负盛名，享誉全球。如果能成为她的一分子，该是一种怎样的荣耀。
走在她树木苍翠的院区，那高贵典雅宽敞明亮得不像医院的医院，看那些极为高科技的仪器，看那长长一串在此治疗的各国元首名单，看那块诺贝尔医学和生理学奖章，看那许多个医疗领域的第一次在此发生，心里的那个愿望更加强烈。
可是我是如此的渺小，如此的微不足道。那个埋在心底的愿望，说出来，真正是痴人说梦。
每年有六个名额，分给十余所高校，我一个国际学生的位置，又在哪里？
有幸得到负责人的单独会面，更加印证了我想要实现那个梦，几乎是不可能的。
想到这里，心就很痛。只想多看她几眼，把我能记住的，都刻到心里去。
7月22日 荡妇和SB男的故事近日对某些人十分看不惯。何止看不惯，简直是义愤填膺。
 我认识的一个朋友（A男)，“深深地爱着”某个女人。去年他们两个拍拖了一两个月，然后就在这期间，这个女的跟别的男人(B男）上了床，并且怀孕了。然后这个女的跟我的朋友(A男）提出了分手。此后3个月内，此女又火速认识了另外一个男的（C男），并且同居了。两个月前，这个女的生下了小孩，小孩的亲生父亲（B男）和她的现任同居男友都不想对小孩负责，而此女生活十分窘迫，于是便时常打电话给我的朋友A男，叫他给她买吃的，给小孩买纸尿片等等。而这个SB至极的A男，竟然非常愿意接受这个任务，时常在经济上接济此女，并且经常去看这个小孩。 要知道，在此期间，这个女的还和她的同居男友住在一起，而她无论有什么事都打电话找A男。
然后，这个贱得不能再贱的A男，向这个女的提出，“我们结婚吧，让我来照顾你和女儿，我会把她当作是自己的女儿对待。” 这个女的说她需要考虑考虑。 然在此期间，A男的父母买了一栋房子作为投资，暂时让A男住在这栋房子里。在这个女的“实地考察”了A男的房子后，态度来了个180度大转弯，同意了结婚，但要有“至少一克拉的钻戒求婚”，并且提出“搬到一起”，A男求之不得，于是在此女产下小孩2个月后，她和她的同居男友（C男）分手，搬进了A男父母的房子里。
......
这件事情，真真切切，没有半点夸张。 我作为一个旁观者，看得十分清楚。可是，世界上竟有如此窝囊废的男人，和如此不要脸的女人；更令人称奇的是，如此荡妇，竟然有如此手腕，实在令我大开眼界。我觉得我的朋友A男是一个心地很善良的人，作为朋友，真的不愿意看到他受伤。 我跟他说，这个女的很不可靠。第一，她在你们拍拖的时候背叛了你，跑去跟别人上床还怀了别人的小孩；第二，怀孕后她又如此火速的跟另一个人同居；第三，当她需要经济上的支持的时候，就来找你，你说她是更爱你呢，还是更爱钱呢？有朝一日，她会不会再度背叛你？ 可是你猜这个男的怎么说：“我爱她，只要她不离开我，我永远不会离开她。” 我彻底无语，忠言逆耳，说一次就够，我只对他说了一句话，你有点自尊好不好？
我觉得我blog的名字discovery channel在这件事上，真是太贴切了-- 我每天都在发现新的、无法理解的事情。
此事也反映出了一个道理，好女人往往嫁不到好男人，反之亦然。
无语，还是无语。 Good newsAbout two weeks ago I requested a transfer from the current district to the district where my school is. My district manger said he would talked to the other district manager about my request. Based on how slow things could go sometimes, I took the liberty to contact the other district manager myself. I left him a message on the phone. He called me back today, and said that he had talked to my current distrcit manager, who" highly recommends to keep you on board". So he "will be happy to" transfer me to his distrcit. There we go, problem solved, just got myself a job during the school year. 7月16日 new car就在大约一个小时前，我在购买协议上签下了自己的名字，然后~~ 我拥有了人生的第一辆车！ 哈哈哈！
老爸老妈很早就鼓励我买车，并且坚持要赞助我，早就给了我钱，不过我没有用。买车的钱每一分钱都是我自己挣的，没有贷款，没有分期付款，而是写了张支票一次付清。估计卖车的人很少见到一次付清的，还有点不相信的跟我核实是否真是用现金支票。
此刻自我感觉良好，虽然我又变得很穷了，虽然今天上班时被那个心理变态的主管骂得差点爆发，但是不可否认，新车的确使我本来灰色的一天变得明媚起来。 明天又要去面对那个提前更年期的变态主管，但是我要提醒自己，高兴点，往高兴的地方想！ 7月8日 My biggest fearMy biggest fear of all, is losing my parents, some day. Even the thought of the fact that my parents will not be around forever is unbearable. Whenever it strikes me, my heart breaks a little. Lately, I have been homesick a lot. I think of my parents all the time and I spend hours, yes, literally hours on the phone with them-- just never wanting to hang up. I worry about them a lot. I tell them over and over again to be careful and be safe. Yet somewhere in my heart there is still that sense of helpless.
I guess my fear comes from the realization that my parents are getting older, whether it is the simple fact that my mom, who used to have 20/20 vision now needs reading glasses; or my Dad, who has always been the strongest man in my world, is not invincible afterall. I almost couldn't believe it when my mom start talking about her plans for retirement-- a voice was talking in my head:" what do you mean, retiring? But it was only yesterday that you were young and full of energy!" I know it is part of the journey of life, it is the inevitable . Yet I really don't want to face it.
I can't even start to think of how I will ever survive the world without them. I don't know, I really don't.
I could only pray to our Lord, for a long, healthy and happy life for both of my parents; and for as many days as possible for them to stay in my world. It will be a true blessing to have them around, for a long long time.
I love them, more than they will ever know.
7月7日 July 4th7月4日是美国的独立日，相当于我们的国庆节。今年的美国独立日及周末，我去了密西西比河上钓鱼、玩水上摩托等，然后登上山顶看沿河的烟花表演。昨天去Ground Round吃了一顿牛排。
美国多么美好，可是没有我的家园美好。离家越远，乡愁越浓。
我会回来。 7月2日 an updateIt has been a busy summer so far. I work full time and am trying to deal with a lot of other things at the same time. After working 8 days straight, I think I deserve a day off-- so I have today off. So far this morning, I have talked to my mom, a car dealer, the Minnesota Board and the director of rotations at my school.
Nothing could be more confusing than all the laws, regulations and policies. After trying to read and interpret some of the legal documents on the website, I thought I had to complete the entire Internship Manual, aka. every activity listed on there (over 100 pages) and have everything signed off by my preceptor by the end of the summer, in order to have my summer hours accredited at Minnesota. I was overwhelmed and had that hopeless sinking feeling. But after talking to the director in my college on the phone, I realized that I have until I graduate to do all the stuff, before I can take the board exam and get my license. I am a bit relieved now. Still long ways to go, though.
I work tomorrow but will have July 4th off. By the way, why in the world are taxes so high in Minnesota??? One third of my paycheck goes straight to the tax. WTF!!! |
