christmas shopping

People start the shopping for Christmas already!?

Oh! Yeah! Once I heard one of my friends, she shop for Christmas whenever she has some extra money, otherwise, the shopping money may run out way before Christmas.

When you are driving in a heavy traffic, what will you do?

Change lane to lane!? Most of the people probably do the same as me. And every time after I change lane, immediately, I regret, and almost no exception, the land that I change into, the driving speed becomes slower than the land that change from, sometimes even at a full stop.

But I am never giving up on changing and hoping and then, regretting and frustrating followed, same pattern occur over and over again.

today, while I was driving and changing lanes, I look back and forth between the lane that I was driving on and the lane that I want to change into, suddenly, I saw the innermost lane, the car pool lane, in the instant, how I wish that I can have someone, maybe a family member or friend with me so I can drive in the car pool lane.

Sometimes we thought that we make a smart move, but it turns out, it is an arduous way.

Different route can lead to the same destination, some are faster, easier, safer or shorter, some may slower, tougher, dangerous, or a longer route. You can drive alone or have someone to keep you company, someone will give you a helping hand or a wisdom advise when you need it.

開車時，碰到交通處阻塞時你會如何做呢？不斷地換車道嗎！？我想，大部分的人可能跟我一樣會如此做，但每次當我一換到新車道的時候，我就立即後悔了，而且幾乎沒有一次例外，我所換到的新車道一定比原來的車道慢，有時甚至完全停止了。

但我從沒放棄不斷換車道或者希望我的車速能變快一些，然後又開始後悔和苦惱，同樣的動作和思緒就不斷地重複著。

這次當我獨自一人開車時，我不斷的換車道和觀看到底應該要換到哪一個車道較快速時，突然間，我看到了最內側的快速車道就是共乘車道，那當時我有了一個想法，我要是有一位家人或者朋友同我一起乘車，那該有多好。

有時候，我們自認為做了一個明智的選擇，後來確發現是一條艱難的道路，不同的路線可以到達同一個目的地，有些路線比較快速、安全、簡單、捷近，有些路線比較慢、艱難、危險、漫長。

你可以選擇獨自開車上路，或選擇有一位同伴同行，一位可以適時地伸出援手和給予智慧的建議。你同意我的想法嗎？

newspapers

The other day, finally, down in southern California, the city that I’m living in, it rains. It rains for couple hours, kind of hard and our shoes outside get soaked.

Good things is not just we all need the water badly; also the trash day is the day after.

What is the trash day is anything to do with the rain or wet shoes?

That is because, I can have plenty of papers to dry those shoes, I try to use different type of papers, among those papers, and newspaper is the best for water absorbent. But actually, newspaper is the last thing that I want to use. It always leaves terrible poisonous black mark.

Why is newspaper the best absorbent and glass cleaner material? I think, probably is because the material and the way that how they are made differently, am I right or wrong?

9-16-2015

I just back from my audition opportunities for Kairos communication service international as an narrator.

Boy! My heart is pounding at that moment, first time ever inside the recording room. And good thing is I get there earlier than the appointment time, also the people before me cancel the appointment, and therefore, I get to have extra time to relax a bit and even get to have a second chance of audition on it.

Now I just wait for the result, but just like before I said, “no matter the result is, I’m really appreciate for the special opportunity”.  Hope God uses me for something that I can be.

     I’ll also try a voice record for this particular event.

So wait and listen to me, ok!

Oh! I do forget before the audition, they ask to relax; I should sing a song, such a shame!

下午結束了開路者協會播音員的試音，試音時真的非常緊張，這是我第一次進入播音室。
還好我今天提前到達，並且上一位試音者取消試音，所以我有較多的時間放鬆心情並且多一次試音機會。
現在就等著試音的結果，就如我上次說過，不管結果如何我都非常感激有這樣一個機會，願上帝使用我的才能。
噢！對了！當負責試音的人員叫我用各種方法在正式試音前放鬆時，我應該唱一首詩歌，哎呀！真是太可惜了。

computer, on

Most people, including myself nowadays, often time, unconsciously and nervously keep checking cell phone, computer, iPad,  apple watch or any other kind of 3c products for email or Facebook or news or whatever social media.

It's if I don't check for an even millionth second, then I'll miss huge.

Do i really want or not want to do this, sometimes I'm really puzzled.

Oftentimes, I ask kids, what? Are you doing some kind of important big business?

lucky me

The high school’s football field is only one block away from my home. Therefore, I’m so lucky that I don’t need to buy a ticket or stay there for hours in order to enjoy the band performance.

watermelon

Found this particular way of consume watermelon on the internet. Therefore I try it my own with the kids. This is a really kind of odd way but fun at the same time. We all approve it.


First, and of course, buy a really big and good watermelon, wash it really clean too. And if you want to make it even better, cool it in the refrigerator for hours or a day before you try it.


Cut a hole, big just enough for the hand blender can go through, blend them well then pour them and serve them in front of kids.

It tastes good; the hard thing is how to pour them out into the cup nicely without spilling. I use the bake underneath while both blending and pouring, just exchange the positon between the watermelon and the cup, get it?

And because the watermelon is big, so you might need to cut the hold lager gradually so the hand blender can reach the whole watermelon flesh.

And I strongly recommend saving the watermelon shell as a dish to serve food with in later. That makes it even interesting.
