9月3日 Grace's goneHeard the movie for a long time but didn't watch it before. Today, my boss Grace has gone after being my boss for 2 years and 2 months exactly. 9月1日 九月一号很多年前的今天是开学的日子, 这意味着美好的长假已经完结. 现在的今天, 已经没有了这么多特殊的意义, 要不是有人说起, 是绝对不会想到这是个曾经很有时代分隔的意义的. 工作着的时候, 就感觉是在搭车, 更多的时候是车载着你走, 别人挤着你去那个方向. 自己没有太多的选择. 想做一点自由的事情, 如果有时间. OK 继续做事了. 8月12日 Training今天是training, 天气很热.
遇见3个中国office过来的同事,觉得好亲切啊, 遇见组织的感觉,^_^.
只是晚上没有去吃螃蟹, presume 去东海岸吃饭该有螃蟹的吧.
加班到11点半, 弥补了一下一天没有做事的内疚....
忘记说了, 昨天看了中国男足的比赛, 不知道又有多少人心脏病发作. 或许大家早就不care了. 记得以前看过一个故事, 苏联那会儿研究原子弹, 如果成功了, 每人一块勋章, 如果失败了, 通通拖去枪毙. 我觉得要枪毙了那群猪, 解散中国足协(大概主席主席的听的飘飘了, 一群饭桶), 禁止国人踢球. 那个火啊... 4月29日 十年 (转自qjwb)
4月2日 世间再无林徽因 from qjwb有感: 有的女人像钻石,生前与逝去同样的荣耀, 比如这个女人。 常常会想,如果她自己,会最想被记得些什么呢?是玲珑,抑或是与摩的道不清的瓜葛。思成又会如何看自己的女人呢? 时间和年岁被文字拉近,仿佛这些是是非非的人物和自己同龄一般。 正是的,他们的最美亦是我,你的最美。 byron at office desk. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ■三 皮 在徐志摩的口里,林徽因被称作:徽徽;在梁思成的口里,她也被称着:徽徽。这个被温柔而亲切地称着徽徽的女人生于1904年,1955在北京辞别人世,年龄51岁。 在我的意识里她总是和徐志摩扯不开干系,另外扯不开干系的是一个遥远而生僻的地方,就是李庄。在四川省宜宾市的上游,一个滨江小镇,八年抗战,她和她的 先生梁思成在那里勾留了六年之久。 徐志摩的家乡浙江海宁和林徽因的避难地宜宾李庄,我都去过,并且有意思的是,在那两个地方的两三天都是将雨未雨的天气,斯人已远,徒余近乎失落的空虚和惆 怅。我在徐志摩高拱的墓前想着那个在伦敦时期花样年华的林徽因;而在小镇李庄的梁宅门前则想着英年早逝的徐志摩。那种将雨未雨的空气里凝聚着沉重的水滴, 和凄伤的泪珠仿佛有着同样的质地。 2000年,我在老家看电视剧《人间四月天》,看到两个天造地设的人物在英伦的寓所中的执手无 语,生生觉得悲哀,是那种没有结果和无可奈何的悲哀,那样一种稠重的情感勾起当时正在美梦中晕眩的我莫名的激动,情感变得犹如一首超现实的诗歌一样脆弱。 一个旷世的女子和一个旷世的情痴相遇,大概注定是一出惊天动地的悲剧。 或许是都姓徐的缘故,自小我就对徐志摩这个人有无端的好感,觉得很亲,虽然他的东西都是浓得化不开的,虽然他有着朝三暮四的脾性,可是他对于这个叫徽徽的女子那一番拼将一生付寂寥的信念却又真实得叫人感叹。 也许正是由于那样一种无畏的情感过于真挚了,才老是在那另一个受众的心壁上留下了再无能为力抹去的影子,那影子是温馨的、清芬的,保有青春期忧郁的基调,是再也走不出去的永恒记忆。 《人间四月天》是林徽因的一首小诗,那小诗的结尾写的是:“你是一树一树的花开,是燕 /在梁间呢喃/——你是爱,是暖, /是希望,你是人间的四月天! ”还有个副标题:一句爱的赞颂。这通体散发着热量的句子还真当得上赞颂这两个字,是一种对于人生的颂扬,是一曲对于爱的礼赞。 我曾 经就轻哼着这样一个歌子,泪流满面,为了一些无疾而终的爱情,痛快地喊出来以便如同矫燕般在四月天里轻快的展翅飞远。可惜早夭的徐志摩听不见,那些温暖的 句子就那样散落四方,在岁月的长河中慢慢地被冲得一干二净,阴阳间隔,就只有爱这样一个概念化的东西在那里伴随月圆月缺。 1931年11月19日,徐志摩罹难于济南近郊党家庄,这个愉快起来快乐的翅膀可以碰到天的浪漫主义分子就那样一下子报废。那一年林徽因28岁,自那之后,林徽因就是另外一个林徽因了。 我极赞同这样一个观点,她当然活着,一直活到1955年去世,可是在1931年她就已经死了,或者说是那个能够写“你是爱,是暖, 是希望,你是人间的四月天”的林徽因已不存在。虽然她依旧坚强地活着,背着建筑学的画夹东奔西走,活在遥远的宜宾李庄,活在百废待兴的首都北京,而那个花 样年华的林徽因已经死了。 这是一个进步,这也是一个倒退,是居家过日子的传统观念的胜利,也是虚无飘渺如同烟花的爱的沦亡。 Arnold Bennett在小说《The Old Wiwes Tale》末几页有一段说辞:“最感动她心的是他曾经年轻过,渐渐的老了。他一生就是这么一回事。青春同壮年总是这么结局。什么事情都是这么结局。”这论 调实在是悲观极了,1931年以后,世间再无徐志摩理想中的林徽因,他们未曾看见彼此的“渐渐”,他们就已永别,如此而言,倒也是一件再幸运不过的事情。 3月21日 FeelingTon petit-d'ejeuner, et ma lettre 8月26日 Robot以前念书的时候曾经写过若干robot机器人的程序。一年级的时候用scheme (一种Lisp language的dialect)写过一个robot。那个robot会洄游于S15和S17之间,遇见人就吃,还会发出yummy yummy的声音。现在不写code也有很多时日了,不过却从身边的robot中怀念起那个时候的生活。
最早见到的MSN robot,是一个叫dict.cn的online dictionary。它提供msn的robot来实现中英互译。其中一个robot的MSN是dictcn023@hotmail.com。尽管它只能翻译一个词语,甚至连最简单的句子都不可以,不过还是给了我很大的 便利。
最近忙中偷闲的时候又见到一个robot,叫smarter child,smarterchild@hotmail.com,觉得甚是有趣。当你跟它说hi的时候,它居然有如下的回答:
Good to see you again. :)
What would you like to chat about, Byron? 霎时间觉得MSN robot的功能强大了许多。你甚至可以问它天气,温度,zip code,还有各种各样的别的特殊功能:
功能1:写怪异的故事 输入:manicdotes
按提示输入10个单词之后,robot返回了如下这篇怪异的文章:
A Friendly Creature
Joe and his car were singing to school when a quick Mars suddenly appeared in front of them. It ran up his leg and climbed into his pocket. The cool creature poked its head out and looked around additionally. The twins asked at the sight in amazement. Few had ever seen a lawyer trying to soar in someone's pocket before.
Whoa! Now that's what I call a funny story.
Thanks for playing with me! Type "play again" to try another manicdote.
>>> You can *create a poll* and send it to friends!

example 2:
Myself says:
u idiot - SmarterChild - contributing to charity says:
C'mon. Be nice. 看样子它还是很不错的,至少做到了打不还手,骂不还口。
有空的话,不妨去跟它玩玩吧。 4月16日 扫灰进来的时候突然发现,上一篇文字已经是半年之前了;
转眼间,4月就要过去,回头看的时候常常就想2007年也过去三分之一了,我做了什么呢。。。
有人说,20-30,人生最有变化的10年了;也有人说,小姑娘过了25,就是圣诞树了。
而我,好像正正好好的处在这样的期间,倒也没觉得特别的感伤,年华终究要老去,看着妈妈多起来的皱纹,就觉得我一定要长大。
最近,常常加班,很晚的时候还在公司,这倒也没有什么不好,至少回家之后免去了一些烦恼;
最近,常常回忆,和同事聊起小时候的游戏,想到了便去taobao一下,却发现,原来很多的东西已经被替代,只是心中的那份感情永远珍藏;
最近,常常缺睡,每天总是不想起床,因为始终睡得太少,就算什么梦都不做,也感觉一下子天就亮了;
最近,没有空胡思乱想。。。 10月15日 A New Bed & A New DeskSaturday, I bought one bed and one table from IKEA. I took the London Taxi home with two friends. I spent the whole night assembling the bed and finally finished at 12.
Sunday, I start to assemble the table right after getting up. I bought one screw driver, but it was broken after i finished 1/5 of one table leg. A friend bought a stronger screw driver for me later. And I started to complete the whole 20 screws and finally finished.
Well, thanks to all friends. I spent a wonderful weekend since I got a new bed and a new desk.
(Was the writing a bit childish????:( ) 9月26日 Happy Birthday to QiYeseterday, Sep 25th, is a great day in the history, since a consistent event happens through out the past 20 few years. AND it will continue to be that special event, being celebrated, being memorized and being special. Happy birthday to Qi. 9月24日 The West WingLast night was a decadent night as usual, simply because I watched 4 episodes of the West Wing, which finally, I finished watching all the six seasons. Matthew Santos, an unknown congressman from nowhere is not the one, but the one who beat the popular candidate & present vice president Bob Russell as the Democratic nomination for the new presidency. His opponent would be Vinick, a strong and honorable Republican candidate. The two are all ideal contenders since they never, ever attack their opponents during the party nomination path. Santos is not the role that I like, since he is kind of unwilling to accept Josh's advice, I would rather say it is Josh's campaign. He is the kind of person with too sharp characters, and too much showing off for his upright position. Those roles usually cannot win the seat in the Oral Office. I saw Josh's tremendous efforts to bring him into the final election stadium from the new Hampshire. In stead, his vice present partner Leo McGarry is more comfortable of the center political operations. The sadness about the whole show is, it is too long for us to wait for the end. I thought the season six would be an ending since it enters the last year for the Bartlett Administration. I thought the story would end there, however, there is another season 7 ongoing. They shot it in 2006 and now Amazon is open for pre-order. I read news from informal source that there would be season 8, otherwise it would be a never ending story again as friends and many other shows. Frankly, I even dislike Lost in the way that a simple air crash leads to too many intangible foolish stories. The last thing that I want to mention about the show is that it seems the US vice president is always the role of too aggressive and too ambitious position. From John Hoydens to Bob Russell, it make me speculating the ending of Leo McGarry. Maybe it is too much, since he is kind of too old and too weak to be more ambitious. The thing which I like him most is a sentence he said, "Serve the Nation". Maybe too many personal interests and attractiveness nowadays pushes thoese spiritual goals miles away. But in the end, what's the impact of us to the whole world, is important. 9月16日 Apple AGeeeeeeIt is an apple age! I had a time to tour the apple store at @Wheelock Orchard. It was not a good impression compared with the previous trip there. They moved the store into rear and not many show cases, what was worse, the ipod is that easy to get dirty. However I still bought a new ipod, those black one. It looks cool as i can imagine. Not many days after i bought the ipod, I heard apple start to promote the fifth generation products, ranging from 80G ipod to the very cool/cute ipod shuffle. Well, need to admit that they are so attractive and i cannot say a no to them... Seriously considering to adopt a new clip like shuffle. It looks so cool and cute. See the Pic from apple:
Wait till Oct:) 9月3日 Past, Present,...It has been a long long time since I 've not been here. These days I am quite enjoyable, everyday working and working...this weekend is a special one, since i didn't date anyone out, yet no one tries to date me out. Last two weekends I needed to bring work home, and further more, I went out with friends in the weekend. Things are strange such that when you are busy, you tend to be busier, and vice versa. I don't like the feeling of busy, and i also don't like the feeling of empty. I worked out cubic equation's solution this weekend. It was first mentioned in 1500s, don't know why ppl were so smart at that time. Imagine there is no cubic equation, no relativity, no partial differential equations, what could happen? maybe the world would be totally different. Probably no cars, however, if got horses, i wont mind too much. Without those advanced technology, I may be able to stay home with parents and do something more meaningful during my spare time. I tried to solve an algorithm problem in the weekend. In case you will be interested in it, I describe the question here: There is a merge sort algorithm which always divides the input n number into floor(sqrt(n)) and n-floor(sqrt(n)) two portions. And we are asked to show the time complexity of this algorithm. I guess it is O(n log n), but somehow I cannot prove it since the recurrance involved is damn ugly. I just saw some job advertisement and got attracted by those positions. However, I think i would stay and finish my first year of job instead of going to some other position. I believe if I stay, I would also performs. I just cannot adjust my mood...maybe the world is too attactive le bah. I am going to sleep and tmr still got appointment at 10am. Buddies are going to the IT show, a nice chance to burn my money, haha. If I could find Ipod promotion, I guess i ll surely buy one for myself. Life is like a box of chocolate, I try to taste whatever part that is sweet.:) Nite Zzzz...Zzzz.....kiss nite everyone. 8月5日 工作三个月的比较觉得现在的工作K和第一份工作E最大的区别就是:在E大部分的人问得第一个问题总是,“这是不是我的问题”,好像把工作当作一个皮球,总想踢给别人,没有一种要主动承担下来,完成它的热情;而在K,大部分的同事则会主动去揽工作,因为一个人的表现和做的工作的多少和质量是直接联系起来的,如果没有事情做,timesheet上就没有东西可以charge了。两种公司的文化造就了两种截然不同的氛围,觉得K的工作更有朝气一点点。 记得在K的orentation上,HR的主管说,这个公司进进出出的人很多,如果有人离开了,公司会感到很惋惜,可是公司也很支持这样子的流动。很多同事都在外面别的公司做发挥着很重要的角色,这是公司的骄傲;还有的同事在外面工作了几年,带着其他方面的宝贵经验又回到公司,对公司的发展带来更好的推动。我觉得这样子的公司给人一种温暖。与此相比,E的同事离开的更多,更频繁,可是没有一种荣耀在里面,太多的office politics。 最近听说有很多很一般的人都找到了听上去很不错的工作,或许我指的很不错只是意味着钱多吧。但是这样子比只会越来越不平衡的。可能我也能找到那样子的工作,可是找到了又怎么样, 总有人会找到更好的工作。就算trader赚很多钱,可是还是给别人打工,不如有的自己开公司的来赚的多。我现在清楚的知道,我想要的不是徒有虚名的荣耀,而是一种踏实,比如踏踏实实工作几年,这才是自己的荣耀,生命的荣耀。 6月23日 测试结果
6月15日 流水落花春去也决定走也是蛮舍不得的,毕竟在这里有好好的工作,好好的同事,还有好好的心情。之前问过很多朋友,包括Q, 都觉得离开这里去到那里是不好。再说一次sorry Q。最后我还是自己做了决定,让大家都跌掉眼镜的决定。我决定去K,做一份不知道会是什么样子的工作。我对它的印象来自于那位面试官,我想,若干年以后,我会像他那样子的。
爸爸说他年轻的时候吃过很多苦,我觉得自己很幸福,因为没有什么很大的挫折,不像那一代人一样。甚至有的时候自己会追求太多虚荣的东西,现在是时间抛开那些,然后踏踏实实的做几年工作了。未来周围的同事都是和我差不多的年轻人。或许年轻人和中年人的不同是我们敢想,然后敢为。中年人则有太多的牵挂,家庭的负担,每个月的奶粉钱,诸如此类。
我会好好努力的,然后或许等到我需要付奶粉钱的时候,口袋不至于那么窘迫了:) 6月6日 在一起的分分秒秒还记得背景的这张画么
还记得我们一起看的这部电影么
五天前的这个时候,我们想要去看电影,却被告知今天不营业,后来才知道原来是经济合作组织的演习
四天前的这个时候,电影才开始不久,我们以为还会有很多的时间可以在一起
三天前的这个时候,你开始吃我给你做的饭,虽然我觉得大失水准,可是你还是说很好吃
两天前的这个时候,我们都在机场,一个在上海,一个在新加坡,又是相隔万里
昨天,我们又开始为中国电信做贡献
一切的一切,就好像发生在昨天,满怀期待的憧憬,早上就可以见到你
而现在,又是隔了好远
不过还记得一起吃哈根达斯的快乐,还记得在城隍庙拍的那张很怪的照片
还记得我偷偷看到的那个日子,虽然你说不作数了
在一起的分分秒秒,都是值得纪念的,希望我们会很幸福很幸福的走下去 |
