Under the darkness!

1.
On my way home, I was watching CTS (http://www.cts.com.tw/) on the bus and surprisingly figure out that I can sing "The Boys"...
( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YFbyh0wzTS0 )
...I forgot that the song has English version.

2.
How amazing the TV experience in this trip is.
"みなみけ" is awesome with hakka chinese dubbed.

I delay.
They are wet.
It is fully occupied.

The first day back to NCTU is still a cold day.
I am a little unlucky.
Thankfully, I am ONLY a little unlucky.

It was raining so I didn't leave campus for lunch.
I bought something to eat in 7-11, which just reopen today.
It is closed during Chinese new year.

I put my clothes into washing machine.
Out of my expectation, they were wetter than ususual with no reason.
They were too wet to make them dry by dryer in a short time.
I had no choice but hanging them up by hand.
It was unlucky that I had to hang them up in winter but I am lucky that I don't have to wash them by hand.

It seemed that my computer functioned abnormally.
I had been tryting making it back to normal since last semester ended.
I think it is finally OK now.

I installed a new CPU cooler this afternoon with many difficulties on the way.
I hope I will not have to make any change to my computer in the following semester.

---


New air cooler for my CPU, Hyper TX3( Cooler Master).


Some components for installation.

The installation of this cooler is much more complicated than the last one I installed.
No pain, No gain( sign).

Last night, I went to bed at about 3AM.
It was much latter than I expected.
I was too busy searching the information about CPU fan to go to bed on time that I expected.

I planned to go to my dormitory in NCTU today but I don't.
From news, we got that the traffic of going to north would be terrible this afternoon and will be much worse this evening.
So I changed my schedule from taking bus to Hsinchu to going shopping at Chiayi.

It was still hot about a week ago though it was winter time.
And now it becomes really cold.
Even some poeple who lived in 高雄 and 屏東 told us that they felt cold.
It seems that every part of Taiwan is in a true winter now.

Mama went shopping with me today.
She wanted to buy a coat for me becuase the cold weather and she consequently bought 2 coats.
One for me and one for herself.
I led her walking from our home to the 3C store that near Chiayi train station.
I wanted to buy a CPU fan and a keyboard.

I need a new CPU fan because my old one on my CPU is too noisy.
From my experience, it usually makes noise louder as it works harder when summer time.
Though I just got a new coat because of the low temperature, the winter will be gone soon.

KR-6220G, the new keyboard I bought.
It is not an expensive keyboard, it is even cheaper than ACK-230U that I bought last time.
ACK-230U is a good keyboard to me so I am not planning to buy a new one to replace it.
I bought KR-6220G for the computer home.

I am now using the new keyboard typing this article.
So far, I think it is not bad but a little too "soft" to my finger while pressing those "keys".


Colorful packing box.


Four key caps for reaplacement and the tool for pulling key caps up.


KR-6220G ( i-rocks). Looks simple.

It was a peaceful night because the last exam of this mid term weeks was over this afternoon.
The exam is about psychology.

HDD, one of my roomates, was trting to copy data from his computer.
The computer is the one I had mentioned before which I took as the server of SXF forum.
We finally took out the data of the forum and recover the forum on a free web server.

----

Pg came to our room with David, Mei and the only member I hadn't talked about before.
He is a senior which means that he is order than us.
Though he is order than us, we were familiar with him because he has been David and Mei's roomate for about three years.

I forgot his name though he had told me.
Actually the main reason that causing me forgetting his name is probabaly that we always called him "學長".
This reminds me those "new classmates" when I was in J3H.

They came to find us to take a picture with them tonight.
This photo is for "學長" to take as a memorial of his life in dormitory.

He is a senior now and so he will graduate soon in the future.
That's why he took the picture today.

Open the refrigerator, I took out a box of milk.
It was part of my breakfast.
Besides milk, I had a cake bought from 85℃.
The cake was made by two kinds of cake pieces.
Each piece was only about 2mm or 3mm high.
There were many pieces to be a cake.
Anyway, it was tasty.
---

It seemed that I mention of McDonald's as a choice of lunch everytime going out with my friends.
However, I was just kidding and we seldom accepted the suggestion.
To me, it is only an acceptable choice.
I don't really like it or hate it.

Therefore, I went it today at noon.
---

Our home had a new LCD TV 2 or 3 weeks before and I think I had talked about it in one of old post.
I was trying using it to watch videos in my coumputer or on the internet last night because...
... the quality of programs sent by cable televison is low.

Thankfully,
I succeded in it.
The images of my laptop can be displayed by LCD and the sound can also be made by the speaker of the TV.

Though I don't update my blog very often,
the blog still get many articles about three years after its birth.

I took a look at the articles and randomly selected this one, 「Diary」My mouse came alive!, to read.
There are some mistakes in my article but they are not the reason making the article a boring one.
It is boring because it is just a diary about a common day.

I saw a comment that posted by my cousin who lived in US.
I had read the comment before.
The point that surprising me is that it mentions about Facebook.

Actually,
I think I have too many web sites to take care.
But I usually regist a web site even though I don't use it because I would like to make sure that my account name won't be occupied by others.

And it seemed that I worried to much this time.
Facebook's account is related to email address.

Yiyii, Ron and I took MRT to Danshui.
I had been to Danshui for not many but enough times, I think.
The main characters of this trip are not Ron and me but Yiyii and her friends.

Sadly,
Yiyii misunderstood the message from her friend about where to assemble.
We got Danshui station finding none of them here.
The real place we should be was the waiting area of Danshui line at Taipei Main Station.

Anyway,
it was not really a big problem.
I led Ron and Yiyii to the favorite place at Danshui to take a rest waiting for Yiyii's friends.

It is Starbuks, a famous coffee store.
We, but not including Ron, did have some fun time there enjoying 經典巧克力 and 巧克力星冰樂.
Ron was anooyed by stomachache.
Luckily, we accidently got the time waiting Yiyii's friends and letting Ron solving her problem.
It made the rest of the trip a good trip to Ron.

As I mentioned before,
Ron and I were not the main character today.
Our mission was following, going after Yiyii and making sure that she was safe today getting along with her friends.

I think everything went not perfect but still well.
The most interesting part I think is that Yiyii tried bike at the time they decided to looked around Danshui by it.
She never ride it successfully in the past actually.

She still failed this time and Ron and I took turns riding randem bicycle(協力車) with her at last.

However, it seems that Yiyii was not satisfied with the trip.
I hope she learned something about getting along with others in the trip from many conditions she met today.

"I already see the river."
"What? I don't know what this means."

I took the bus of 新竹客運 to Taipei from Hsinchu.
Grandma called me while the bus just came to the city but not the stop.

I took the bus many times so I knew that we were almost there, the destination.
I made the conclusion by seeing the Taipei Train Station, it was also known as Taipei Main Station as a station of MRT.

However, I was wrong.
I saw our bus turn left and continue runing instead of stop at the place I thought it should be.
We entered a building and went up slowly along the slope.
We went up as we were driving into a moutain.
The road surrounded the building while its altitude increasing.
First floor, second floor, third floor and then finally we got fourth floor.

I saw many place for buses to park.
Every place had a card showing the company, the company of the buses that should stay here.

I said thank you to the bus driver and left the bus.
All passengers walked through the door into the building which surrouded by buses and the road.
"Wow!", I was surprised.

It seemed that I was in a department store.
It was clean, light, new amd convinient.
Waiting Area at 2F(if my memory is correct. )

It might not be greater than an airport or a HSR station.
But it is still amazing to me because it is the best station for bus, the trasportation that stands for old and cheap, I have ever seen.
(OK, maybe train is the real one that stands for old.)
Elevator

LCD

Now passengers can get many useful messages about the rides by wathching these LCD monitors.
LCD

It also gives the information in English!
I had to take out my digital camera to record what I saw.
It was really hard to introduce them just by words.
Tickets Selling Area(售票亭)

It looked alike to a cinema.
And there was a symbol showing the directions of different destination that near the station.
Symbol

The symbol gives the informations where to get on the buses of different companies.
The one I just took was on the 4th floor, name 新竹.

Tourist Center

A big question mark tells that you to go there if you have any question!
Such a coincidence, I saw a passenger requires some help while I was taking this photo.
One of the Entrance

Appearance of the Station

By the way,
I missunderstood the symbol that shows the way to MRT station.
So I got the MRT station name 中山, not Taipei Main Station.

Anyway, it doesn't really matter that where I arrived at is 中山 or Taipie Main Staion.
The point is I am home now :)

I ate lunch and breakfast at the same time again.
I wasn't hungry when I just woke up.

By the way,
it was the door ring woke me up.
The bell rings because there was a package waiting for me to recieve it.

It is a box of 釋迦.
---

I came back home after finishing my lunch and prepared to see another package.
Mama and I were waiting for our new TV, SONY KDL-40W5500.

It was finally sent by two strong men safely though it was rainy.
It got a black plastic bag outside its original packing to keep it dry.
---

Mama and I went to many stores such as 頂好 and 7-11.
We were looking for milk.
It have been a period of time that no enough milk provided to the market.
So it is usually hard to buy milk.

We finally found it in 7-11.
In expectation, it is expensive.
Mama needed milk to make avocado milk(酪梨牛奶).
It was her first try to use avocado and I think she was sucessful.
It's tasty :)

Finally,
SXFs assembled again.
We had lunch yesterday at 風尚.

Besides classmates,
our teacher, Jackson, also presented.

By the way,
it was my first time drove new altis to carry my friends.
---

Mama and I went out to investigate the price of buying a new LCD TV.
Our old TV is broken.
We had used the old one for about ten years.
---

I was not vigorous these days.
I can't tell the reason because I had no explanation to it.
I will try going to bed earlier tonihgt.
---

It seemed that the network of dorm9, where I lived while studying, is still not worikng.
The forum of SXF will probabaly have no server for coming few days.
I can't think of any idea to the problem :(

Krait is a type of snake.
You can know more about it at Wikipedia( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Krait ).
Anyway,
I wasn't interesting in the snake.

I bought a mouse for my little cousin, Yiyii, as her birthday present.
The image below shows the appearance of it.
Krait ( Razer )

The reason I chose it is that I have another mouse that is designed by the same company, named Razer.
I was satisfied with my mouse, Salmosa.
Salmosa ( Razer )

I seldom regret what I have bought.
But I have to acknowledge that I thought Krait is better than Salmosa now.

I think I will buy a keyboard next time as the birthday present of next year.

I didn't submit this post now because I am uploading some photos.
Though I did visit many places with my family this summer vacation.
I am not uploading them.
Actually, there are no place for me to upload them all.
---

(Uploading is Completed!)
YueYing ( Card )
She is my favorite character of Shinsangokumosou, a video game.

I went Taipei City Mall with my family last Saturday.
There were so much people in the mall on weekend.
We walked through stores and looked around not for any certain purposes.
Our definite schedule is going to Sogo for dinner.

Luckily, I found this doll.
YueYing ( Model )

Not only I but also others of us wanted to buy some models.
But it seemed that only I found what I like.

Hope they will find what they like next time.

Aug. 12th, 2009

Today is a sunny day.
I went to my little cousin's school.

She just graduated from elementary school.
Today she had some special activity, for new junior high school students, at her high school.

There are usually many things to do for a new student such as buying new clothes.

---

There was a meeting on Monday.
I should be there to meet my classmates of junior high school...
...in my plan.

Though typhoon didn't affect Taipei much,
it seemed that many other parts of Taiwan were damaged.

So the traffic between Taipei and Chiayi, where the meeting was hold, brokes.

(Sigh)
I really miss them because I haven't met them for a long time.

July 27th, 2009

I was awaken by my cousin.
I could feel something was happening by seeing thier behavior.
Actually, they had already told me what's happening before I could feel.

Our car made a loud sound to remind my grandparants that not all car doors were close completely.
They didn't figure out the message...

At last,
mama handled the problem.

I did nothing. Ha!
---

I took a look at my blog.
I thought the style of it wasn't suitable.

Therefore....
I changed it.
---

Before I changed the style of my blog.
I changed the sytle of my guestbook.

It was the trigger.
If I didn't put my attention on my guest book,
I may not change the style of my blog.

July 21st, 2009

I had a plan for this day.
I think I did execute the plan completely.
Though not everything was done on the right time!

I woke up after the time I supposed.
I ate my breakfast as soon as possible.
Actually, I decided what to eat in a short time help me a lot :)

Oh, By the way, I bought a new bag this afternoon on the way to bookstore.
I also chose which to buy very quickly!

Then I started my first event on my list, called calligraphy.
I didn't really like the activity when I was a kid and was required to do it by my teacher.
However, I am now interesting in writing(or maybe it is more moderate to use the word paint or draw for me) with a writing brush.
These characters are really beautiful.
---

Jung, Yii and I went bookstore reading books and enjoying the environment with air conditioner working.
I bought a new bag on the way to it as I had mentioned above.

Another alike accident occurred,
we were so concentrative on reading that we forgot the time.
We went back home much latter than we planned.
---

At night,
I finally had some time playing computer games.
Ambiton of Nobu, a custom game map of WarcraftIII, was the one I played.

Phidiasy, my good friend which I always called him HaMu, played the game together.
Luckly, I won one game and didn't lose at the second match.
(Acutaully I didn't win the first time in some way because our opposite team escape in the middle of the game.)

I called this good luck because I am a beginer and my dear friend told me that he is a begginer as well.
It is therefore really lucky that our team won the game with at least two beginners in a five-players team.
---

I was late two times in this day.
It seemed that only the plan of TV programs that made by my cousins worked very well.
The last thing out of my expectation of this day is this diary.

So sad, I should go to bed earlier -  -a

July 1st, 2009

Ring...
My cellphone started ringing with no one calls.
It was in order to wake me up.

It works!
And actually too efficiently works.

Pg told me yesterday that having breakfast this morning at 7:30.
I got Laguardia just on time and found out that no one but  I was on time.

...

I planned to go Taipei today and come back to Chiayi with mama after she finishes her work.
I got Taipei before noon.

Grandma, grandpa, Ron, Ee and I went CPCity Living mall for lunch.
It was comfortable to go there to eat because it was hot outside.

Out of my expectation,
we then stayed there for whole afternoon and had dinner as well.

Though we could reading book at bookstore and we did it,
my original expectation is to take a nap on the ground at home.

Apr. 9, 2009

I just finished my lunch.
It was a box of noodles.
I can still smell it because I haven't throw the box away.

I was too busy and too lazy to submmit any post here for many days.
(maybe I should say few months)

I am writing this post now means that.... I'm free now!?
Actually, it isn't the truth.

I am waiting for Visual Studio C++ to complete its installation.
In order to do my assembly laguage homework easier,
I had to install newer version of Visual Studio.

It has compabibilty problem between the software of old version and new files of new version.
The point is that I can't open my professor's example files.

Anyway, the setup is completed.
I have to restart my computer now.

Feb. 14, 2009

Pa and Ma was not at home already when I woke up.
They went playing golf.

But not only they had plan at this day.
My plan is going to Kaohsiung to meet an old friend, Hsiao(蕭).
Actually, he had a English name, John.
But we don't called him with that name very often because Haha have the same English name.
It may cause confusion.

I went there by train from Chiayi.
Sharon took the same train but from different station.
We planned to met on the train and we did.
In fact, I was worried about her forgetting taking the train before I bought ticket.

I hadn't been to Kaohsiung for a long time.
Besides meeting a friend, I was also excited about taking Kaohsiung Rapid Transit.

All we did were walking, eating and talking.
They were common but I thought they were enough for us to do.
I like to talk to my friends.

----
After I came back to Chiayi.
I got a phone call from my roommate.
I knew he came Chiayi from Kaohsiung today but I thought he would come before me.
Coincidentally, we got the same train!
But we got out of the train without knowing that.

Anyway, he went Minsyong for dinner and I gave him some advice.
Hope he had a good time!

Feb. 11th, 2009

We once stayed at the same classroom for every week days.
We studied and prepared for tests together.
We had lunch at the same desk.

HaMu was too busy to meet us before when it was Chinese New Year.
And now it is about the time that new semester starts.

I seized the chance to asked him to meet at the time between 元宵 to this Friday.
He is going to go back to school this Friday.

We met and had a good time taking with each other.
I planned to watch a movie but he said he would like to stroll around the street.
So we talked about our life experience instead the story of movies.

I think of talking about lives as a way to update the informations about each other.
We once had many similar experiences while we were classmates.
And after we graduated from high school.
We had different environments and met different people.
And the result is we know each other less than we did in the past.

But after sharing each other's thoughts and experiences,
I got the memories about your life that similar to what your really had even though it was actually made by myself from your words.

Anyway,
it doesn't really matter whether I had your memories or not.
The most important thing is that I know you are fine.

我的英文能力不夠我表達，
要趕快去多看英文喔 哈

突然覺得 以前說能講能用的英文還是不太對，
買東西問路實在是件比手畫腳也能做的事情，
還是要能夠好好的表達想法才夠用，
不然每次寫起來都感覺囧囧的ˊˋ

阿 原文都忘記提，
哈姆好像有變瘦捏，
不曉得Danny有沒有？

倒是笨笨銘果真是沒叫錯，
叫他上公車記得打電話提醒我，
結果給我到嘉義才通知，
害他自己多等半小時等我走到 呵呵

是說 逛街的確不錯，
就是說話題太多害我常講到一半就忘掉講啥然後又講其他話題（太久沒見積太多？
重點是有沒有講過也不曉得XDDDD
 
沒想到哈姆也在講わたし
下次他自我介紹可以講「私はハムてす。」

以上 快樂一天的小記.

Feb. 4th, 2009

I went meeting some friends today on foot.
Mama usually asked me if I needed them to give me a ride when I went out or came back home.
I seldom accepted her suggestion as I wrote above.

First of all,
it was actually a good chance to exercise and save energy.
Second,
it gave me much time to think.
Because of its low speed,
it gave me more time thinking.

What was I thinking?
I can't tell exactly some things what I was thinking.
I thought of many things maybe with some clear goals or maybe not.
Sometimes I asked myself some questions about plans for future and behaviors in the past.
Sometimes I looked around thinking of their changes.
Sometimes I tried to decide what for dinner.
Sometimes I thought of which way to go.

I kept walking today and I think I will still walk next time if I can.
And maybe I'll try walking with thinking about nothing.

Jan. 30st, 2009

Wow, it is almost the end of the first month of this year.
The last post I wrote was posted a few months ago.

It was a little weird to write things here now.
Not because I had nothing to write, but I had a lot of things that I don't know if I should write them down.
I sometimes talked with myself in my heart.
I think not only me but also others did that.

These conversations in my mind were usually about my thinkings of events I met in my life.
In the past,
I usually tried to recall theses conversations and type them into real words.
Sadly,
what I recalled and wrote were not going as the way I thought.
They had the same main idea, but these words didn't maintain what I really feel at that time.

It was hard to express feelings by mouth.
But it seemed that my mouth is still much better than my fingers.
---

New year begun for few days already.
So did my vacation.
I got sick right after I came back home.
So, I did almost nothing after my vacation started.

Anyway,
I am fine now!
