I haven't updated my blog for a few days, since I had to deal with my assignments due this Friday and prepare for that Java test. A pretty intensive week, and after that it's a study recess, two weeks. The Java assignment which is a Chess Game almost drove me mad, I really mean it, for those Java codes, I haven't got any sleep from Tuesday to Friday afternoon after I submitted it in lab, I was crazy. The week before study recess seems to be the busiest time for each student, you can tell when you go to the labs in campus 3 o'clock in the morning, there're still students working on their assignments, that never happen on normal days, and I'm one of them. Really good students never stay overnight the week before exams, they study in normal times, you certainly wouldn't see them 3 or 4 am in the lab. At least that proves one thing, those studnets are not lazy or giving themselves up. You can be unintelligent, but never be lazy, though the first one makes your life hard, but the latter one really can kills you

我告诉你说：〔我的车子坏了，我走了半小时的路才走到车站。〕
　　本来我以为你会关心说：怎么不坐计程车，你累不累。
　　但，你说：〔反正很近，你也顺便减肥。〕
　　我生气，觉得你不爱我、不关心我。
　　第二天，我发现你留在桌上的你的车钥匙，以及为我准备的丰富早点。

　　【我才发现，原来你是爱我的，只不过你不说，这是你爱的方式，跟大家不同。】

　　我告诉你说：〔我想要去北海道、荷兰等国家欣赏那一大片壮观的花海。〕
　　本来我以为你会关心说：你想去哪，我们来计划计划，即使是敷衍几句了事也好。

　　我生气，觉得你不爱我、不懂我。
　　後来，我发现家里的旅游杂志，不管是国外还是国内的报导，只要是有赏花介绍的那一页，页角就有摺痕，页面就有你的笔记记录。

　　我告诉你说：〔我的头发掉的好严重，可是医生都说没怎样，我好怕我会变秃头）本来我以为你会安慰我说：哪有，你头发看来还是很多。
　　但，你说：....

〔你这才知道你的头发乱掉，家里的地板都是你的头发，好脏。〕
　　我伤心，觉得你不爱我、不在乎我。
　　後来，我发现家里的地板少了很多我的掉发，我以为我真的不再掉发了，所以我开始有了不会秃头的自信。

　　【我才发现，原来你是爱我的，只不过你不说，这是你爱的方式，跟大家不同。】

　　我告诉你说：〔今天主日崇拜的诗歌好好听，让我好感动。〕
　　本来我以为你会关心我说：要不要去问问是哪一本哪一系列的诗，我们去买cd回来听。

　　本来我以为你也会开心的回答我说：我也是这堋觉得，你是最好的老婆
　　但，你说：〔嫁了都嫁了不然你还想怎样。〕
　　我生气，觉得你不爱我、不懂我。
　　後来，我在无意中发现你开始会在睡前用卫生纸擦拭著我们床头上那张40寸结婚照然後微笑的望著照片傻笑好久。

　　【我才发现，原来你是爱我的，只不过你不说，这是你爱的方式，跟大家不同。】

　　我想我终於懂了，在你不在乎的外表下，有颗不善用言词达的心，一颗最爱我的心。

I did make a dream last night, a little wacky one. I'm not going to talk too much about it, it might not look like what I could say, or not what you could imagine, but I faintly remember that I was shaking a gal's hand softly when I dreamed, it feels like real I can tell. The annoying thing always happens to me when I have a sweet dream is either I would be waked up by some noise, or I just wake up suddenly for no reason, and my dream is in its best part.

Our group got 7 out of 10 for part 1 of COMP304 group project, not really what we expected, but it can't be very bad. 6 groups, and group 5 got 10 full mark for part 1, their multimedia title is more like an interactive flash website in my mind, but our lecturer feels like it. We can't re-choose another topic, I wish I could insist more on my original ideas about doing 12 signs or 7 world wonders when we were in the first meeting, but they are sort of not very interested in it. The topic we're working on now is also my proposal, which is talking about "video production", since I've learnd it then I mentioned this idea on the meeting, they're interested in it somehow. Now I do feel that it's not really easy to implement it in purely graphical design. Part 2 is given today, and we're going to have another meeting tomorrow morning. I don't have any class on Wednesday.

I've seen the most perfect rainbow on my way home today, a full 180 degrees colourful curve bridged on the sky. I heard about a tale about the rainbow, as it says that if you follow the rainbow from one end to the other, then you could find treasure. I'm going to give it a try, as long as I could fly one day.

"The day after tomorrow" is my current fav movie, I've watched it three times so far. It scares me when I see that giant vortex, everything seems cool, silent, and that's the most scary part of the this movie, then after several seconds, everything is going to be frozen to death. Man kind is such a tiny weak piece in front of the real nature. The storm destoried almost anything, but not people's hope.

I went up 8:20 this morning, it was very nice day, though the ground was still a little wet since it rained a little in the dawn. Frankly, I seldom get up as early as today this semester, one important reason is because it's winter now, cold as hell, and I tell you in the earily morning, and at night it freezes my ass off. I don't have class till 11 am, so I decided to have my hair cut in the morning. I'm very glad whenever I could actually do what I've planned on time.

It's rained for a few days, and my laundry from last week is needed to be washed as soon as possible, I don't have any other fresh clothing to change currently. So I have to do that before Wednesday this week which is my regular shower time. Landlord always gets up the earliest in the house, so the laundry machine was working for him when I went to brush my teeth. Landlord makes a rule about the usage of laundry machine, stupid one in my mind. There's a sheet on the wall aganist the machine, which says: Since the machine doesn't work very well sometimes, and to prevent its engine from overheating, it only can be used one time each day! Then in today's case, I only can wash my dirty clothing tomorrow if I'm lucky to get the machine first, we also have other 6 students want their laundry problems solved. It became a competition somehow.

I went to downtown by bus, and I can't remember when was the last time I took bus to go to downtown, I don't go to downtown as many times as I did last year. That's could be an evidence that I'm becoming lazier and lazier, which is not a very good sign at all. I had my hair cut at the Korea barbershop located in downtown, I always go to there when I want have my hair cut. I don't feel like changing haircut shop very often, since once I'm used to a barber's work, then I'm used to it for a long time might till that person leaves or the haircut shop relocates to someplace else where I couldn't find. A Korean couple run this haircut shop, the husband can't speak English very well, but he has better reputation than his wife whose work I'm used to. I can't speak any Korean, I think I do need a person could better understand what I really mean to my hair style, seriously, you don't allow too many people deal with your hair unless they help to have your hair cut. The wife was not there, only the husband. He told me that she would come to the shop 11 am, that was too late for me, and actually I'm not mind trying his work too much, well you know, if you really want your hair cut, then you have to trust the person who's going to cut your hair. He got my hair satisfied anyway. It costs $10 as usual.

In the presentation, our "group convenor" turned up and asked me"who's going to do the presentation", that killed me. Debra, Varonia and me did the presentation, which was not too bad, though Debra felt a little nervous in her turn. I know that girl she spent a lot of efforts on her part, she did much much better than our "group convenor" who was sitting in the seat when we were doing the presentation in the front. Shame of him.

I didn't get on very well with my second STAT226 tutorial, and there're only 10 days before I have to submit the first JAVA assignment which is a real disaster to me. I don't even know how should I get it started..

I'm doing bad...

Would I have a dream tonight..

It's rained all day, showering, terribly as hell. You could never see such a pouring in Shanghai, at least I haven't seen yet. Only in this island, with such a fickle weather, the rain behaves violently different. Once it rains, the garden outside becomes boggy, puddle everywhere, and the path paved by bricks is almost half inundated. I have to pay double attention to those bricks when I walk on them, since one step I make wrong, the dirty wet mud will splash on my feet, or I may almost fall because it's very slippery. Actually I have to go to the kichen or the toilet through that stupid brick path when it rains, unless I have gumboot, then I could walk in the water. I dont care too much about raining, but I do hate raining like that.

I curse this weather.

I was praying it could stop for a while, just in the case that I was going to have a meeting with my group members to discuss the 10 mins presentation for tomorrow. The rain stopped on time, and I was not late. On the way to school, I saw the wired scene that might only you could see in New Zealand, there was great sunshine on the top of my head, and the sky which was not very far away from where I was walking was almost entirely obscured by dark cloud moving towards me. I bet I should run fast, or I got wet. I saw the rainbow in the distance.

Only Debra and Varonica turned up, well, actually we didn't expect our "group convenor", not indeed at all, to attend this meeting, since he didn't attend our meetings for several times. We complained in our report to the lecturer. I've had a few group works so far, and I have to say, I never meet such an irresponsible group leader or kiwi student so far! Anyway, three of us arranged the process of the presentation, and I'm going to cover half of the ppt. Gals are very democratic actually, they made agreement on the amount of work that I'm supposed to do. nnn...... I'm not very good at explanation, but I'm glad to do my work. I feel like working with them and discussing with them. They all International students, Debra is from China and Varonica is from Indonesia, I dont feel too much presure when talking with them in English. They both are good students, they give me good impression. I'm not talking their personal appearance here, but their personality, and at least they do their work seriously, I can trust.

I figured out another way to make myself feel a day longer then it actually is. I had dinner very earily today, which gave me more time between after dinner and before sleep. Though it didn't rain tonight, but it was still wet, especially the cement floor in the kitchen, I almost fell once. Not too many choices for my dinner, potato, carrot, and chicken nibbles. I bought 10KG potato pack, $4.89, much cheaper than those 3KG, $4 pack, but those potatoes just seem to be digged out from the field, wrapped by mud. Peering potatoes always takes much time, and the naked potatoes look so lovely in white.

I'm going to have my hair cut tomorrow morning, it's too long and messy. I'm missing my braid that I used to have once more
