殘念...It's a pity....

剛結束的ING馬拉松其實我也有報名，但我並沒有參加到，原因是我睡過頭，而我睡過頭的原因是我的鬧鐘沒有響，鬧鐘沒有響的原因是我沒有把開關打開，所以就算我前一天晚上睡覺前有設定鬧鐘的時間為5:30 ，但因為我的愚蠢沒有把開關打開，導致鬧鐘不會響，千錯萬錯都是我的錯。
但其實我有跑，我確確實實有參加ING路跑 "在我的夢中"，我還看到跟我一起報名的五專同學余，只是他在我夢中跟現在的他有些不一樣，到底有什麼不一樣，有....他變胖了，我記得他瘦很多阿！這時我的雙眼睜開，發現房間充滿光線，翻身往鬧鐘那邊一看，『掯......睡過頭了啦！！！！！！』

ING Marathon was just close. Actually I 'd registered but I didn't participate. The reason is I oversleep. Why I oversleep that because my alarm didn't work. The reason why the alarm didn't work is I forgot turn on the alarm. Even though I set up the alarm was 5:30 before I went to bed last night. That's so stupid to forget to turn on the alarm after I set up. Every wrong thing is because of me.
I wanna tell you that I had participate the ING Marathon in my dream. And also, I had seen my friend was running next to me. I felt somewhere is weird. Yeah,her body. She is so fat in my dream. In that moment I opened my eyes and stare to alarm....."shooooooooot.......it's 8:30".

MSDN & JAVA.NET

之前因公司需要所以用了一陣子VB.NET開發專案，但因為很多東西不是很瞭解，所以很仰賴線上MSDN查詢功能，這個功能讓我覺得很方便，只要鍵入相關字就可以找到你需要的內容，還有程式碼範例，如果你習慣使用JAVA，你應該知道JAVA的文件，JAVA的文件都是用類別來分的，如果你不熟悉JAVA的類別庫，你就得一個一個找，或者是在網路上找一些沒有經過官方測試的程式碼來試驗，沒有一個很完整的資料庫， 現在你不用擔心這個問題了因為有了http://java.net/。
測試了一下真的很方便，只要查詢關鍵字就可以找到你想要的東西，還有非常多的範例程式碼，有用JAVA的朋友們就好好利用吧！！

7-11 seven-eleven

今天不怎麼想吃平常吃的中餐，所以就想買個點心就好，至少不要讓我的肚子太餓。中午就跟小查（我的同事）一起到很遠的7-11買大亨堡，雖然在公司附近的全家也有賣，不過我跟小查一致認為大亨堡就是要吃7-11的，所以不管多遠，不管天空已經下起綿綿細雨，我們還是決定要到7-11。到了7-11我們就朝著大亨堡的巴檯走去，拿了兩個麵包，一個給小查，一個給我自己當我把麵包的包裝拆開要把麵包倒到大亨堡專用盒子的時候，先被我倒出來的不是麵包，而是一隻令女人及小孩聞風喪膽的"小強"，這隻小強雖然在麵包裡不籌吃不愁穿，終究被死神召喚，我看著小強的遺體，跟櫃臺離我最近的的女店員說"我想要換一個麵包，因為裡面有小強"，那女孩對我說：那隻小強不是從袋子裡掉出來的，他是陣亡在袋子外面...... Orz

This noon I didn't want to eat normal lunch, I wanted something different.Charles(my co-worker) and I decided to get Hot Dog in 7-11.There is another store named "Family" is near by my company, but we think 7-11 provides the best Hot Dog. So no meter how far we want to go to 7-11 to get the best Hot dog.When we got 7-11 we went to the hot dog bar to get two bread. One for Charles the other one for me.When I placed the bread upside down for put the bread into the box. The bread didn't come out but I found a roach in the box...a dead roach. I told to a salesclerk what I found,then I ask her for exchange the bread.She said "the roach didn't come out from the inside of bag it come out from outside of bag......."Orz

消失的單車 Bicycle disappeared

幾個星期前向我的好友Frank買了單車，為了是要上班代步用。
今天我終於騎 "她"（就是我的車的名字叫她）去上班了，上班的路程一切都很好，到公司也有樓梯間可以放，因為沒有腳架的關係，我把前輪拿了下來為了可以讓"她"可以屹立不搖，吃中飯的時候還跟同事介紹我的新車，大家都覺得不錯，到了下午四點，覺得有點渴就跟同事一起去樓下買飲料，一如往常，在等電梯的時候，順便看一下 "她"還在不在，當我走道樓梯間轉角時竟然發現我的"她"竟然不見了，馬上跟我同事說，他覺得我在虎爛，看到"她"真的不在時抓著我衝下去找，我就去找收公司垃圾的阿姨問他有沒有看到"她"，而我的同事問這棟大樓的清潔員，才得知因為我把"她"放在垃圾桶旁邊，又沒有前輪，所以他想把我的"她"當作垃圾處理掉，正放在二樓半 ，>_<|||我下次不會把我的單車放在垃圾桶旁邊了。

Few weeks ago I bought a bicycle from my friend Frank. Because I want to ride bicycle to work for save money. Today I finally rode my bicycle to work. Everything was good when I rode my bicycle. When I got my company I put my bicycle in the stair hall. I took the front wheel apart because I don't have kick stand. The way make it stay very well. I introduced my bicycle to my co-workers before we went to eat lunch. I want to buy something for drink at 4pm, I asked my co-workers who want to go with me. When Charles and I were waiting for the elevator , I went to the corner of the stair hall to see my bicycle. But it didn't there!! Charles didn't believe me. He thought my was kidding. We got into the elevator and run outside to ask someone who clear the building. The cleaner said “he thought the bicycle that lack the front wheel and put near by trash can was broken”, so he bring that to the garbage field. Finally I found my bicycle and I will never do that put my bicycle next to trash can again.

Still In USA

Everybody thought I have already returned Taiwan. But actually I am still in USA. I didn't stay here longer on purpose. My flight tickets had some problem. So My friends, until Jun 15th we can meet .I learned how to open your mind to see the world. I have wonderful time in MN. I appreciate my parents gave me the opportunity to come to USA and Joanne helped me a lot, Thank you.

See you USA

Today is the last day stay in Minneapolis. I'll be in Taiwan after two days. I'm so happy I have been here to meet those friends. They're so nice, kind and help me a lot. This trip let me learn many things that I can't learn in Taiwan. It's influence me a lot, though I'm here almost only 6 months. And thank Teichroews(their blog) who are my house renters. Thank they treat me like their family, make me like I have a family in Minnesota. I'll miss my friends and MN.

Friends in MN

Those are my friends from church. They are really nice guies. I'll miss them after return Taiwan.

Goodbye My Friend

My friend Devin is going to move to China to teach English. Today is the last day that I can see him. We had a party for his leaving. We treasure our friendship. He really help me very much. Not only me, there are a lot of people who receive his help. Now he's leaving. I'll miss him.

New photo album

前陣子換了新相簿，若有興趣，可以到我的相簿看看。

Republic Of Taiwan

到Minnesota即將三個月了，遇到很多不同國家的人，每當他們問"Where do you come from??"我都要跟他們解釋我不是大陸人，不管是美洲國家，如美國、墨西哥、厄瓜多、瓜地馬拉，或是非洲國家如衣索比亞、索馬利亞、肯亞，甚至是我們鄰近的南韓、日本、越南、泰國，都覺得我是大陸人，我真的很不想當大陸人，所以得一一跟他們解釋，告訴他們台灣的政治情況，雖然不喜歡政治，但我更討厭當大陸人，而瞭解這一點的外國人在與台灣人和大陸人的閒聊之間也會避免談到尷尬的問題，例如我朋友Devin就做的不錯，Chinese, Taiwanes的區別還真難界定，在這邊也會遇到大陸朋友，為避免無謂的爭吵，就是不要講這種話題，在我去Kansas的時候遇到大陸人時，就有一個不知道死活的韓國人問了個問題"你們是同一個國家嗎？？"在我還沒說出口前那個大陸人說"對阿，我們是一樣的"我那時只能乾笑了，誰叫我太有風度，面對沒知識的人也只好由他去了。
冬季奧林匹克開幕時，我參加了一個派對，當大陸代表隊走出來時底下的字幕是China，當台灣代表隊出來時卻不是台灣，現在是這樣，不希望以後是這樣，我們要讓世界知道台灣這個地方，要讓世界知道台灣的好，這非易事，但值得我們努力。
太久沒有更新一更新就是這種話題，不知道會不會太麻辣了點，如果你有意見歡迎留下任何意見都是好意見。 這裡有一篇New York Times對於台北的報導http://travel2.nytimes.com/2006/02/12/travel/12going.html

what's up????

What's up??
Sometimes you can heared some people use "what's up " to greet their friends.
It's not maens "how are you??". In fact it's means "What's going on??" . So you can't answer "fine thank you, and you??" for "what's up?" question. You also can say "not much." for nothing happened.

話說小弟我來到明州也兩了月了，英文到底有沒有進步呢？我想答案是肯定的，而這個答案也同時肯定我自己，至少沒有來這裡虛度光陰，每天面對英文其實真的很煩，因為看不懂和聽不懂的東西實在太多了，現在就要做到今天比昨天更進步，今天要比昨天懂更多，今天要比昨天覺得更容易。這就是我的目標與期許！！

NEW FRIEND!!!!

在這已經快一個月了，認識了不少朋友
大燈就是其中之一，他很喜歡中國文化，曾經去過長沙
很喜歡問我一些有關中國人的問題，也幫助我習慣這裡，
當我有不瞭解的東西，幾乎都是他幫我解答，哈哈
真是個好人，剛認識他的時候還以為他二十七、八歲，
其實他才二十三，如果他沒有留鬍子就像十二歲
他是一個有趣的傢伙，對於我的破英文，他都會很有耐心的聽
他是基督徒，而且很屌的是他還主修聖經，所以從他那邊我又重新認識了基督教，
即使我不是基督徒，不過我很想知道基督的故事與歷史，
如果他能去台灣一趟，我一定招待他吃香喝辣低

First class

今天是我第一天上學，隨便吃點東西當早餐就出門了
因為還不知道是哪一間教室，所以不需找負責人分配教室給我
讓我意外的是他竟然不在，天阿！！這是什麼世界阿
美國人都是這樣嗎.....等了大約15分鐘，他才出現
跟他談了一下，分配教室給我，就去找我的老師了
她是一個有點歲數的女人，人很好會設法讓你聽的懂他說的話
開始上課學生加上老師共五個人，真是一個小小班級
不過這樣也好，可以上我多學一些。
晚上還去教堂 認識了Joe and cara 他們是夫妻
還有兩個是北韓人我忘了他們的民名字，不過我會在下一次記得的
今天基本上都很好，除了早上吃了一點閉門羹。

更新

最近在整理電腦，發現自己實在太久沒有更新軟體
所以就花了一些時間下載，才發覺原來Firefox已經有了新版本
原先的版本已經舊到不行，哈哈～～
有網路的感覺真棒，現在才知道不是美國的網路就一定快

MY new PLACE

haha...
隆重跟大家介紹我的新住處：如圖
如同之前所說的，還多了一個冰箱，真的是Orz
這對夫妻對我很好，而且年紀跟我差不多
我知道他們年紀時針的嚇一大跳
整棟房子的二樓都是我的，大到可以倒立了
有機會的話來我我家玩阿~~~~~

USA

到美國已經快兩個星期了，住處現在才有著落
那是一對夫婦的家，有一間大房間
提供高速網路，大床，水電.....
一個月$450在美國來說還算合理
今天要去看我的新住處，希望比我想的還要好.......
