终于在2008这个幸运的年份settle down下来。

        有爱人，有工作，有房子，有车，也就有了一个家，一个温馨、充满爱的家！

These days, I am feeling happy. Talking to my friends I like, watching pictures they took. I feel like we all go back to the life we spent in high school and uni. Memories in high school and uni are not always happy, but we do have something exciting and intersting. Sharing the memories with friends, we laughed and sighed with emotion. Frineds are always the best cure when you feel alone.

Two days weekend have passed. Plans that made before the weekend have not been finished again. Now I work four days a week and have three days free. And I always think, three days are long enough for me to do something like reading and learning, washing, tiding; but at the end, I finished washing, tiding with reading and learning left. Even I have graduated and I still want to learn something in my area for the purpose of looking for a job. It seems there is not enough pressure and motivity, and I do need a push though.

 

We need to take exercise. Though we may have some labor work during the day, the exercise does not come from that way. Last week, I played balls with friends even after entire day's work. however, after taking a shower, I felt very well and was full of energy. And later a good sleep also helped me devote myself to a new coming day.

I play balls with my friends these days. And because of this, I need to bring my water bottle for thirsty.  It has not been used for a while and with dust on the surface. I wiped the water bottle with care, then the word "expect" striked my eyes. Someone sent it to me when I was going to Australia with full of expectation. And I still remember what kind of expectation that is. However, things changed after two years. The water bottle is still the water bottle, still with the name of "expect",  but the expectation from one to the other doesnot exist any longer. If this expectation does not exist, the relationship between them is over.  

I am not a moring person. After getting up everyday,  I find one day is so easy to get through. We usually say how fast time flies. It has been more than two years since I came to Austrlia.  This two years really means a lot to me. I have a couple of memorable dates. Twenty-six years, two years, three and half months... both happy and unhappy. Sometimes I doubt, comparing the gain and lost, am i really a winner?  Maybe it is not easy to tell. Afterall it is an necessity of growing up. Since I chose to go abroad at the beginning, there must be something doomed to happen.  To say the truth, I do not regret the decision then and there.

It's been a long time that i have not worked a full day. I suddenly found, this job is so boring. The all day, we repeated things like unpacking the box, puting desktops and monitors on the bench, testing and wiping, processing and recording, then returning them where they belong to. luckily, I have Leo talked to. We have other two locals worked together, but we don't talk much. Mainly we don't have much in common. But today, they actually complained about the Austrlian work efficiency. I absolutely agree this. They can spend a couple of days on even a little thing. They call it by a good name of following the rules. I "Fu le" them.  Following the rules, in other words, they have own ways of doing things. Work is work and life is life. They won't mix them together. They can enjoye both work and life, which I like it and expect it.

The uni life is very colorful these days because of the celebration of the multiculture festival. The uni holds this kind of festival every year but I did not pay much attention to the previous ones. My housemate told me about this year's multiculture festival a couple days ago and highlighted the live show and free lunch. Maybe I have been bored for quite a long time and I decided to go as soon as I got this news. During the three-day festival, I had two free lunches, enjoyed africa dancing and abriginal dancing, etc. I did not have the chance to sit down and watch the dancing but standing behind the crowd. The meals, to be honest, did not fit for my taste. But what can I say, after all they were free. And maybe they are popular in their countries. Anyway, I enjoyed myself.

 

I am getting busy these days. Skill assessment is still in process. PR application has not been lodged. I can't do much on this. However, some fellows at workplace are going to leave and give us more time to work. The good thing is I can earn my living, but the bad thing is I have to spent much more time on work. I intend to work 2 days per week, which I can make enough living cost and also have time to do something I want, like study, prepare to seek a full time job. It looks there is more cons than pros. But I still have to work. God knows someday I will be out of work.

 

To think only of the best, to work only for the best, and to expect only the best.

To be just as enthusiastic about the success of others as you are about your own.

To forget the mistakes of the past and press on to the greater achievements of the future.

- Christian D Larson

要只去想最美好的事情，只追求最美好的结果，只怀有最美好的希望。

要对他人的成功抱有像对自己的成功一样的热情。

要抛却曾经的错误，为将来更伟大的成就坚定不移地前进。

 

To wear a cheerful countenance at all times and give every living creature you meet a smile.

To give so much time to the improvement of yourself that you have no time to criticize others.

To be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear, and too happy to permit the presence of trouble.（to be continued）

- Christian D Larson

要永远面带愉快，要用微笑迎接每一个生命。

要多花时间在自我提升上，这样就不会有时间去批评他人。

要胸怀宽广，心无挂虑；要品行高尚，不怨不怒；要身心坚强，无所畏惧；要心情欢畅，远离烦恼。

To be so strong that nothing can disturb your peace of mind.

To talk health, happiness, and prosperity to every person you meet.

To make all your friends feel that there is something special in them.

To look at the sunny side of everything and make your optimism come true. (To be continued)

- Christian D Larson

     要坚强，不让任何事物烦扰内心的平和。

要与每一个见到的人谈论健康、快乐和富足。

要让所有的朋友感到他们是与众不同的。

要看一切事情的光明面，活出积极乐观。

We seek successful and happy life. Though it is not easy to make it happen, we can make every process to that target. 

The more you promise yourself, the closer the success is.

初一看，两者好像八辈子都联系不到一起。 可是知道我2006年的最初几秒几分在干什么么。 本来打算看电视，为新年倒数的。 谁知在最后时刻家里的热水龙头突然坏掉，热水一个劲的往外冒。 和同屋硬是守着水龙头，想尽办法让它止住了，回到房间，已经是00：05， 1 Janurary, 2006了，晕死！

 

我在想应该也会有诸如水管工之类的服务人员在新年的那一刻standby吧。 至少我们没有一个电话让他们从那么有意义的时刻来我家，哈哈。Lucky them

 

新年应该有个新的开始，虽然还是那么老的说法。

祝我的家人，我的朋友们新年快乐！万事如意！

 

记得校友录上经常会有人钻出来，冒个泡泡，冒个泡泡。以前人气很大的校友录现在变得如同鸡肋。 也许是大家都忙，没时间过去坐坐了；或者像我，其实是懒得过去留言了，会常去看看，但留下笔墨那份功夫，还是能省就省了。 这是自己的空间，居然也会懒得这么久来一趟，不给自己找任何借口。

 

想着就算留下只言片语，其他人会看到我的msn web也会有个*在闪，或许会跑来看一下的， 呵呵，成就啊！

 

谁是第一个，赶紧啊，沙发！！

哦，时间过的真快， 转眼又要考试了， 是要静下心来，把脑子和心思都放到复习当中去了！

 

中秋月饼

中秋吃月饼，和端午吃粽子、元宵节吃汤圆一样，是我国民间的传统习俗。古往今来，人们把月饼当作吉祥、团圆的象征。每逢中秋，皓月当空，阖家团聚，品饼赏月，谈天说地，尽享天伦之乐。

“八月十五月儿圆，中秋月饼香又甜”，这句名谚道出中秋之夜城乡人民吃月饼的习俗。月饼最初是用来祭奉月神的祭品，后来人们逐渐把中秋赏月与品尝月饼，作为家人团圆的象征，慢慢月饼也就成了节日的礼品。月饼象征着团圆，是中秋佳节必食之品。在节日之夜，人们还爱吃些西瓜、水果等团圆的果品，祈祝家人生活美满、甜蜜、平安。月饼发展到今日，品种更加繁多，风味因地各异。

我国月饼经过长期的演变和发展，花样不断翻新，品种不断增加，地区的差异使品种外观、口感、味道各具独特风格。我国月饼品种繁多，按产地分有：京式、广式、苏式、台式、滇式、港式、潮式、甚至日式等；就口味而言，有甜味、咸味、咸甜味、麻辣味；从馅心讲，有五仁、豆沙、冰糖、芝麻、火腿月饼等；按饼皮分，则有浆皮、混糖皮、酥皮三大类；就造型而论，又有光面月饼、花边月饼和孙悟空、老寿星月饼等。目前，全国月饼可分五大类：京、津、苏、潮、广。

其它如云南的“滇式月饼”、宁波的“宁式月饼”、上海的“沪式月饼”、厦门的“庆兰月饼”、福州的“五仁月饼”、西安的“德懋恭”水晶月饼、哈尔滨的“老鼎丰牌”月饼、扬州的“黑麻月饼”、绍兴的“干菜月饼”、北京的“稻香村月饼”、济南的“葡萄软馅”月饼和“水晶豆蓉”月饼等著名品种，风味特点各有千秋。

月饼发展到今天，又出现了许多新型的月饼，如：冰皮月饼、海味月饼、纳凉月饼、椰奶月饼、茶叶月饼、保健月饼等等……

又是一年中秋节， 少了家人的陪伴，少了月饼的引诱，简单，清淡！

来点特别的吧。

 

中秋赏月历来是人们久谈不衰的话题。

据《长安玩月诗序》记载：“秋之于时，后夏先冬；八月于秋，季始孟终；十五之夜，又月之中。稽于天道，则寒暑均，取于月数，则蟾魄圆。”八月十五在农历秋季的八月中间，所以，得名“中秋”。“明月四时有，何事喜中秋?瑶台宝鉴，宜挂玉宇最高头；放出白豪千丈，散作太虚一色。万象入吾眸，星斗避光彩，风露助清幽。”

从时令上说，中种是“秋收节”。春天播种，夏天结果，秋天是收获的季节。在这个季节，热门就会饮酒舞蹈，以庆祝丰收。中秋又是祭月节，这源自于远古人类对自然的崇拜。古代帝王的礼制中有春秋二祭：春祭日，秋祭月。“秋分”这个季节在八月内每年不同，所以秋分这一天不一定有月亮，祭月无月是大煞风景的，逐渐约定俗成，祭月的日子固定在八月十五日。

从科学观察来看，秋季地球与太阳的倾斜度加大，华夏大地上空的暖湿空气逐渐消退，而此时，西北风还很微弱。如此，湿气已去，沙尘未起，空气即显得格外清新，天空特别洁净，月亮看上去既圆又大，是赏月的最佳时节。

追述中秋商月的历史，大约可以追溯到魏晋时期，在唐宋的时候处于鼎盛时期。在宋代时，民间中秋赏月的风气更加兴盛。明清以后，每逢中秋之时，一轮明月升起时，人们就会在庭院里摆出月饼、柚子、石榴、芋头、核桃、花生、西爪等果品，边赏月，边畅谈，直到皓月当空，再分食供月果品，其乐融融。

我国很多少数民族地区在中秋这一天都会举行别有特色的“拜月”、“闹月”、“行月”、“跳月”、“偷月”等丰富多彩的活动。

中国人历来把家人团圆、亲友团聚，共享天伦之乐看得极其珍贵，历来有“花好月圆人团聚”之谓。碧空如洗，圆月如盘。人们在尽情赏月之际，会情不自禁地想念远游在外、客居异乡的亲人。因此，中秋节还有“团圆节”之称。

因为爱，所以等待

    不知道蓝色在英文中为何有忧郁，沮丧的意思。蓝天会让你忧郁么，海洋会让你沮丧么？看过下面的蓝色之后，又会有什么感想呢？ 平静，抑或心情舒畅？

蓝色－感情的流露

去除世俗眼中的污浊

保留至清透明的温情

 

       喜欢剑，喜欢有关剑的故事，再到喜欢将这些故事搬上银幕的导演，爱屋及乌吧

 

 

                   

怎么样，壮观吧，没有配上俊男美女，凑合啦，嘿嘿

        突然想着，我还有这么一个地方可以来溜溜。回来了，看到以前写的东西竟然恍如隔世。 依稀记得是，当初准备开这个空间的时候，问过自己，有多少兴趣，多少毅力，能够坚持着进行下去。最后还是给我言中了，在一番激情之后，这里变得冷清了。今天回来的时候，居然看到曾经有人也看过我的日志，并且给我留了言。居然一直没有发现，惭愧！

                 说我的日志太严肃了，像教课书。我也想把他搞得丰富些，可是我的懒惰让我不想去找太多的东西，虽然现成的也多，然而就连那点劳动，我也懒得去。 就像包饺子，有现成的皮，和现成的馅，只要买回来包就是了，但是就连超市去买来，也。。。呵呵，这只是一个比喻，其实是我不会包饺子，也不喜欢吃饺子，我喜欢吃馄炖（这个炖好像是错的吧，我的输入法咋就打不出那两个字呢，烂）。

                          开学也已经三个星期了，怎么就感觉时间那么快啊，学习的状态还没有调整好，怎么就又要交作业又要考试了呢。最最最害怕的是，这学期竟然有四个考试，相比上学期的一个考试，到底哪个更轻松些呢。思考之后的结论是：都不轻松，自找的！

                                  还得再做个决定，就是这回得这个日志怎么都得继续下去了，哪怕是一天一次，两天一次，一星期一次，一月一次，一年一次，总之一定不能放弃，不然，还真对不起俺自己了。
