到立化以后才开始接触organizer的。小学生一般都有一个记作业的小本子，写完了作业以后画一个勾，表示作业完成。所有项目勾完了，表示睡觉|游戏时间开始了。Organizer原本的作用是记录每天需要完成的计划，作业什么时间要交，等。

但是现在的organizer越来越精确化，复杂化。人的生活仿佛编好的程式。我每天睡觉前在床前贴纸条，计划明天早晨是吃鸡蛋香肠还是鸡蛋培根。计划早餐后是先晨读还是先回邮件。第二天爬起来，阅读纸条，照着程序一步步来。我从记不住我曾经和谁谈话，谈的内容是什么。但是我保存通讯记录，下次谈话之前调用一下，作为继续谈话的参考。人为自己的生活编出了复杂的程序，为的是能按照程序的顺序走。时间久了，人慢慢退化成了机器。我通常记不住人的面孔，可是看着这个人的名片，我能联想出他的面孔和我们的谈话。

我以上说的都是一派胡言。

啊啊啊啊作业呀。。。。

Can you imagine spending 30 years sitting in the same office picking up the same telephone calling people and talking about the same things? If Bill Einstein can make it through by drinking a bottle of diet coke every day, maybe I can too…

Is it more about wanting what you have, than having what you want?

So many freakin' online tests…

As suggested by google...

Autumn in New York is so lovely.

眼前仿佛被装上了蓝色透明的滤镜。面前是蓝色的古堡，依傍着长满蓝色植物的山，淅沥沥的小雨，给山上涂了层雾。进入古堡的庭院，四周被高大的砖石环绕，无家可归的小朋友们在草地上跑。水珠不停的从屋檐上滑下来。

小学生的时候捧着书本，咿咿呀呀的念：

人，要赶快生活。

十年前读的觉得励志的文字，现在看着却觉得惨烈，仿佛是在易水河边挥袖一呼之后，突然回过了神来，想起了那些错过了经过了的，胡闹的美好的时光。

只是当时已惘然。

So...I finally got the chance to hear what happens at the other end of the phone...

(guy with British accent) I don't know what's happening to you people. Somebody has just been putting me on hold for 3 minutes. Where is XXX?

(me) I'm sorry but he is not in the office today. Can I take a message for him?

(guy)Screw you. (he hung up on the phone)

(me)....

(girl who put him on hold for 3 min) don't worry about him. he will get over it.

额。。。就算受了一回锻炼吧。。。

Don't worry, be happy, stay positive...

It's babies season (and Halloween, and election day break)...four weeks after my boss had a baby boy, the girl who has been sitting next to me is expecting a baby girl this weekend. Everyday my boss's boss will pop up at her best friend's desk and be like, 'still no babies?'...I could imagine him saying this in the exact same way, 'still no office bagels?'...ft...

...Oh and we had an office Halloween costume contest...

my boss's boss: so what's up Tim, nice costume! - Tim's wearing a blue shirt and black pants, as he does every Friday.

...And the week before last week we had a fire drill on the 29th floor (our office is on the 30th floor)...

my boss to my boss's boss: be careful Tom, your shoes are on fire!

...And whenever there's pizza:

everybody to each other: yea! we have office pizza today...make sure to grab one before they run out!

...Come on guys, it's just pizza.

Life is a black box full of pizza. You put your hand into it and sometimes, you get a Hawaiian and go, 'yea!!' sometimes you get chili and go, '(grasps)...water....' sometimes you get one that's burnt and smells really bad. But you always eat your pizza. No matter how bad it is, you are lucky because you are still alive and kicking...and eating pizza. When it can't get worse, you know the next one's gonna be better. And, further more, when you live in a school dorm and it is Halloween, you've got Halloween candies hanging up on your door...

So I was writing a paper and then I discovered...google doesn't have a corporate website. When you search google, it is the search engine page that came up. and when you google finance it, it is a really simple page integrated into the google finance platform...almost like a private firm that exists but you don't really know where it is. I just thought it's kinda interesting...

There was a time when men were kind
When their voices were soft
And their words inviting
There was a time when love was blind
And the world was a song
And the song was exciting
There was a time
Then it all went wrong

Then I was young and unafraid
And dreams were made and used and wasted
There was no ransom to be paid
No song unsung, no wine untasted

But the tigers come at night
With their voices soft as thunder
As they tear your hope apart
And they turn your dream to shame

I dreamed a dream in days gone by
When hope was high
And life worth living
I dreamed that love would never die
I dreamed that God would be forgiving

He slept a summer by my side
He filled my days with endless wonder
He took my childhood in his stride
But he was gone when autumn came

And still I dream he'll come to me
That we will live the years together
But there are dreams that cannot be
And there are storms we cannot weather

I had a dream my life would be
So different from this hell I'm living
So different now from what it seemed
Now life has killed the dream I dreamed.

Life begins on the other side of despair...then maybe we should learn to love despair

我在飞驰于哈德逊河边的计程车上看着纽约又一个美丽的秋天的傍晚。精致如昨晚看的霍格瓦茨的傍晚。夕阳是因为接近黄昏才格外美好。这也是为什么史诗都是悲剧。

得到的，失去的，破碎了的还是完好无损的美好，都只是装在玻璃瓶罐罐里的回忆而已。

礼拜六去了China Town吃早茶。。。一天都没干活。。。

礼拜天10点起床。。。开始干活。。。闭关修炼中

给自己加油一下。。。

动力可以来自内部也可以来自外部。。。但是最重要的还是内部吧。。。因为外部的动力不是一直readily available...也是需要用心去积累的

累的时候可以看看窗外的美好阳光，蓝天，街对面的古老房子充满中世纪质感的表面。

雨天也有它不同的魅力

Positive thinking=))

积累中。。。

能够说出的委屈，便不算委屈；能够抢走的爱人，便不算爱人

I am really happy because I did manage to get up at 530, finish my report and stayed awake throughout the day

I was feeling motivated and happy, I did something I wasn't good at and I did a decent job

so it's really about taking the first step, imaging yourself already accomplishing what you've been hoping to accomplish

...and keep doing it=)

It's really about not taking everything personally, having less second thoughts...lol

So I was taking Art Hum and I didn't know Bernini was a better sculptor than Michelangelo...

I didn't know how we discovered marble, I just love how it receives and reflects light, love how it looks perfect and flawless, yet silky looking so it has a texture that resembles that of the skin but not exactly like the skin, it's an embodiment of an idealized human being simultaneously abstract and real. Every detail is pronouncing a statement. I love Apollo and Daphne....the pure genius that is put into the composition and the narrative details is not of this world. Yet he is like the courtier artist like Raphael. A rather bizarre combination. Money and talent usually don't go together, there is a mutual repulsiveness almost as if you have to get rid of one in pursuit of the other, but Bernini had it all. Well, might as well be because he is a pursuer of beauty alone and Michelangelo was really in seek of something else. You can say that Michelangelo pays less attention to the construction of physical beauty but focuses more on the symbolic importance of his works, he wants beauty to the extent that the symbolic purpose is appropriately served, but no more beauty than what is absolutely necessary.

Attitude. Altitude. It's been said so many times that our world is in our mind. It goes as far as the mind goes. But the world needs to know the direction of the mind.

Sway. The mind should not be allowed to sway on its own. The will in turn controls the mind.

There is no 'bad' or 'good' days.

尽人事，听天命

每个人的心里都有一本书，装满了过去的回忆，打开时，每一个瞬间都还是鲜活的，仿佛发生在昨日。

七年以前，我们像刚和好的几十个面团被扔进了烤箱，火候的不同也早就了焦糊程度不同的我们

机场里折射出人生百态的种种告别 走入另一个国界之后的惊奇和惶惑

渐渐的生活开始回复常态 于是我们记笔记，喂鱼，去blue tea，进食堂，唱国歌，跑水库，搭公车

小白一直会为要不要去食堂加饭而纠结

我们一起去marina bay吃海鲜，虽然大家的腰包都很苗条

上了高中，每天唱歌回来都会有点晚了，猪妙于是总帮我打饭，还经常烧酱油鸡蛋给我吃

有些时候会觉得，四周皆是高墙，无法突破，更无法窥视高墙背后的世界。

然而高墙背后的，仅仅是另一个世界而已。

人生百态，有快乐也有挫折。然而有能量承载这一切的，恰恰是人心。

手上扎了仙人掌的刺。刺很小，扎的又很深。皮肤外面看只是小小的一个红点。想了很多办法都拔不出来。不喜欢刺的陌生感，可是要拔，却一定要伤了自己。

图画课上有一个特别有意思的姐姐

老师说看图说话有三种境界。第一种是描述图上画了什么。第二种是根据画图已经自己已有的知识产生联想。第三种是把一二结合以后看看两者的匹配程度。然后发表自己的评论。

问题就在于，并不是所有人都能到达第二种理解。可以想象画家的图为一种加密文件。并不是所有人都有解密的那个所谓的code。没有第二种理解就没有所谓的一二的冲突。于是大家就问，为什么画家这么无聊，就是要把文件加密呢？

其实无聊的不仅仅是画家。圣经也是加密文件，耶稣从来不正正经经的讲道，成天只知道打比方，弄得使徒们都特别郁闷，只有感叹自己的领悟程度不够。

于是大家就特想知道，这个加密文件背后的秘密究竟是什么。结果就特别费劲儿的找答案。找着找着转了一圈儿，又回到起点了。

尼采说别叹气，你觉得现在找不着，但是200年后，你会发现你曾经经历过的那个寻找的过程是那个巨大‘答案’的一部分。

尼采也在自己鼓励自己。

最近几天突然对面食产生浓厚兴趣。。。。可能是被北方粮食养大的我体内的北方基因又开始爆发。

上个礼拜四去soba nippon....终于体验到了原来soba salad也可以做的很好吃。于是我又在m2m吃了好几次soba...然后突然发现mills的乌东面也很好吃，有点Tomo特色乌东面的回味~~~~然后就发现自己不由自主的开始往沙拉里面放意卷卷的意大利面。。。。韩国的小沙拉店没有放soba的这个option，不过也聊胜于无。

话说是不是吃面就会有面试啊。。。。汗

突然发现从这周开始就有一轮一轮的informal recruiting了....ughhhhhhh

周末沉浸于复习期中考试和与自己的过不去中，眼看好多的时间白白流逝....这几天要好好cultivate面试的mood, hmmm

加油加油~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Art Hum课上我们研究了雅典学派，小学美术课本里面出现的图图，画得美轮美奂的，怪不得至今还记忆犹新。

然后我们发现了一些挺好玩的小细节。。。包括他和老朋友米开朗基罗的新愁旧怨。于是他把米同学放在了画上挺突出的一角，衣履阑珊，没有人搭理，穿着他传说中的两个月都不脱下来和小腿上的皮肤已经粘在一起了的黄色鹿皮小短靴。睡眼惺忪，仿佛对世界漠不关心。。。满脸的穷酸书生气

拉同学的贵，米同学的穷酸，只不过是两个鱼缸里的小鱼。互相羡慕对方的生活，却又拉不下面子承认自己的羡慕，觉得自己高人一等，于是就开始酸酸的互相仇视。其实自己的生活又有什么不好。不过话又说回来，穷酸的心理或许正是米同学获得创作灵感的源泉。

Chrome又多了好多个好看的feature...如果来哥大的是Larry Page就好了。。。

早起刷牙。。。发现我竟然有了白头发。。。一根。。。顿时又喜又悲。。。看来是继承了老爸的基因，老爸50好几了现在还不用染发膏，头上只有几根白头发，只是大学时代白发丛生。

老板在犹太新年前夕生了个红头发的宝宝。。。让我想起了Ron。。。顿时一切都变得很繁忙，听说每天只有2、3小时的睡眠时间。。。呵呵看来是家家有本难念的经

昨天跟自己说好了，准备晚上11点开始停止接电话。。。

结果。。。11点开始就有人不停的打电话进来。。。一直折腾到了12点。。。爬上床。。。结果早晨一大杯摩卡的效果还没减退！于是我又爬起来。。。开始做contact list

然后就做到了2点

早晨九点自然醒（估计是因为假期上班的缘故）结果竟然有三个留言了已经。。。

星座书上说，with new opportunities come new problems

也就不细数从开学开始的种种活动了。。。貌似是有7个左右。。。汗。。。WIBC一年的活动才只有5个

我想分析分析为啥突然会这么忙

如果分析成功，也许就不用这么忙了。。。我天真的想。

我希望世界能转的慢一点，我希望把每一件事情都做得好好的，不希望成天忙忙碌碌，却不知道自己在忙什么；我希望培养一些好习惯，习惯慢慢就成了习性，习性慢慢就成了本能；我希望所有事情都有条有理，经过无数思考，如果人脑没法做到，就要借助工具。。。

我想当然的认为人之所以能够不同就在于人的生存本能，split second decisions，本能让人感触到机会，把握机会，最重要的是万事中的那个‘度’

最重要的，还是enjoy life while you can~~~~~~所以还是去购物吧，啦啦啦
