讀書最大的敵人就是網路
特別是對會用網路的人
像我這種有"現在一定要知道 syndrome"的人更是如此
讀到一半會突然想知道一些有的沒的,該讀書的時候好像會特別好奇:
上次看到的那台canon的review不知道好不好?
imdb現在rating最高的documentary是什麼?
fifth element得幾分? Luc Besson有導什麼電影我沒看過?
long island iced tea是用什麼調的啊? 順便也wiki一下是誰發明的好了
最近有出什麼好遊戲? 考完可以玩
Sweden的平均溫度是多少啊? Norway有比較冷嗎?
如果把房間的大燈換成省電燈要幾年才划算?
台灣yahoo購物有不錯的東西嗎?
上網看看別人設計的t-shirt好了
104上面的廣告公司有哪些?
上次找不到的那本書再找一次好了
加幣的匯率現在多少? 這一年呢?
google map 看看金字塔長什麼樣
明明就都不是重要的問題
但在讀書的時候這些都變成了"現在一定要知道"的須知

iLoveBlog - 最終話
最終話是什麼?
應該是"不會再回來"的感覺
可以是離開一個地方
也可以是一段日子的結束
今天有人說他待在Vancouver的時間只剩4個weekends
才發現自己也沒多久就要走了
台灣出發 溫哥華轉機 終站未知
(未來應該還會轉很多次機..)
以後回來應該算作番外篇吧

iLoveBlog - 媽媽
花蓮海洋公園
這兩天在整理mp3,把一些歌翻出來聽
剛好播到周杰倫的聽媽媽的話:
媽媽的辛苦不讓你看見 溫暖的食譜在她心裡面
有空就去多握握她的手 把手牽著一起夢遊
小時候我都有聽妳的話 不讓妳擔心
現在長大了 要開始聽我自己的話了

抓狂的小事
近年來有精神疾病的人好像越來越多了，一部分是因為社會壓力，也有可能是以往大家都不自覺，有病也不知道。可是到底怎樣才算是正常人？文明在短時間內發展到這種程度本來就是不自然的，除非是住在鄉下過著桃花源般與世隔絕的生活，不然大家或多或少都有精神病吧，畢竟環境本身就是不正常的。
鑑於許多出色的科學家、作家、音樂家、藝術家、哲學家都有"精神疾病"，我的強迫症說不定是好的，會讓我抓狂的小事：
- 走路鞋子磨地
- 沒有人的房間開燈
- 東西沒吃完
- 保護貼裡面有泡泡
- 電腦裡的專輯不完整
- 火星文
- msn通話紀錄不見
- 電腦桌面被別人用自動排列
- 沒打或太晚打燈的左轉車
- 洗別人的碗

Deans Debate
今天替自己找了個翹課的理由，中午去Norm Theatre聽Deans Debate，參加的是Faculty of Arts, Sauder Business, and Pharmacy。
聽各派掌門互相調侃還有娛樂價值的，結尾時Dean of Arts說了一句對Pharmacy的回應：
"they make drugs that saves lives; we make lives worth living."

工作十年?
常常聽到有人說要瘋狂工作個十年，賺夠錢之後就可以退休了。
雖然創造經濟奇蹟是台灣人的國民運動，但我覺得興趣跟朋友不是仙人掌，不能十年都不澆水(仙人掌應該也不行吧)。
我也想過以後要拼命做個幾年，之後再做自己想做的事，但如果十年後興趣死了，朋友變的像陌生人一樣，要跟誰have fun?
比起馬爾地夫玻璃地板的希爾頓飯店，我還比較喜歡到老朋友的小公寓喝老人茶。

It feels good to feel good
I think all we want is to feel good about ourselves and in front of others; everything else is just the manifestation of these two desires.
As we try to be like non-conformists, we start turning our attention to how to feel good about ourselves. Traditional social preference is weakened. Money, status, and career achievement comes later, as long as they do not stop us from fulfilling basic physical needs. Traditional values are not nearly as important as being able to confidently say that "I like who I am." The lifestyle of a bum can be praised if he can show that he likes who he is. How you feel is the bottom line. One wouldn't be considered successful if he doesn't feel good about who he is and what he has achieved in his life. Even for someone who devotes his life in making the world a better place, he wouldn't be truely successful if he doesn't enjoy his life.
While how others feel about you have a significant impact on how you feel about yourself, we are encouraged to break away from this type of social constraint. The tagline is that you shouldn't let others decide how you feel. So we start to shift the focus from how others think to how we actually feel. Traditional terms of success deteriorates. Instead, we are in charge of defining success in our very own terms.
But does this really work? Maybe it's simply unnatural to resist our desire to seek approval from others. At the end, maybe we are just playing the same old game of meeting those social values. When the society as a whole thinks the definition of success should be uniquely defined, our motivation for setting those targets and meeting these goals remains unchanged.
traditionally: social approval => feel good
now: feel good => social approval => feel good
So to feel good, first you must feel good. Kinda like one of those self reinforcing cycles. But how does this start? Maybe we simply need to look harder in our lives to discover it. Surely there are things in our lives to feel good about. Well, if that doesn't help, go shopping.

Do we really care?
(I think this is would be a depressing article to some people, although I don't think so myself.)
So do we really care?
Care about what? the environment? extreme poverty in third world countries? human rights violation? child soldiers? For sure you care about these issues, I mean, who doesn't?
I hate to say this out loud, but I think we are not being as honest and virtuous as we believe.
The fact is that we honestly do not care about a lot of things we say we do.
This is not an attempt to raise awareness or encourage people to care more, nor is it a cynical expression of frustration. Instead I am trying to make a point as truthfully as I can. I think it is quite logical that we do not care about many of these issues as human beings, despite our moral believes.
Our indifference comes with good reasons, I should add. This is not to say that we are all cold-hearted egocentric bastards, but we are human beings who act according to a set of incentives and disincentives derived from our physical and emotional needs. Perhaps the real question is: why do we care about issues that do not concern us?
Some say that the source of apathy is industrialization, but I think it merely changes the scope of our relationships. As the population move into the cities, the close personal bonds between community members are weakened. People care less about their neighbors if know them at all. In an industrialized society, most people receive salary and depend on government assistance if unemployed. Nowadays, our social circle shrinks to only close family members, friends, and colleagues. In the past, we have personal connections with community members partly due to economic reality. In agriculture based societies, strong relationship is essential because of the need for collaboration and mutual assistance during difficult times. That being said, I don't think people from the past would care about civil wars in other countries more than we do now.
Our moral value tells us that we should care about these issues, but at the same time we do not want to face the costs. Compassion for the less fortunate is deeply entrenched in our belief system to the extent that deviation would provoke a sense of guilt. It is simply morally unacceptable to say that we don't care about the misfortune of others in our liberal society. While it feels good to think that we are responsible global citizens who are aware of and care about these problems, the costs of acting upon are higher than most of us are willing to accept.
How many of us actually spend time on causes we believe in? Have you ever volunteered for Amnesty International? Oxfam? Unicef? Ever written a letter to your politician? Let's put aside the effectiveness of donations, but have you ever made donation of any form to support issues you are concerned with? I've never done many of the things I just mentioned, and I am learning to live with it or do something about it.
It's hard to admit our indifference in many issues because it's an internal struggle between who we are and who we think we are. Perhaps this is why we usually pretend that we do not see fund raising volunteers on sidewalks. All the facts force us to look at our values against the costs. As much as we are unwilling to accept, the well being or lifes of others sometimes worth less than $10 or $20 a month to us. So the best way to avoid this internal confrontation is to look away.
What really bugs me is how hypocritical we are. I hate those who talks like a saint but acts as a sinner. This disparity is most evidently presented on environmental issues. If you don't recycle, save energy, or cut down driving, don't say that you care about the environment. If you are unwilling to donate money to any organization, think twice before you say you are a responsible global citizen, because it is the least you can do. I mean, keep it real man. If you say that you care, do something. Conversely, if you do nothing, be honest enough to admit that you don't care.

2 weeks in Taiwan already. I don't know if 80 hrs/wk is considered normal, but it certainly gives me perfectly good excuse for not updating.
just saw a youtube clip fwd to me few days ago abt Taiwan. 3 seconds into the clip i know what the rest would be about, and also how i would feel and how fast ill forget abt it. You would understand if you are a Taiwanese.
Its a clip about oppression from China toward Taiwan and the things we should be proud of ourselves. I honour those passionate individuals who make the clips and take action to let the world know about Taiwan. However, there is nothing new, and I got impatient and almost didn't finish watching it.
What struck me was how I (and maybe most of us) have become so indifferent of the issue. What's the psychology behind this? Perhaps we have gotten used to how pathetic we are as a sovereign state. We become accustomed to the denial of existence by the international community. Occasionally we feel pissed when some other even more pathetic tiny countries also deny our existence. It's like watching a 100 to 0 hockey game. After a while you just switch channel and watch something less depressing. China know this well, and it's doing a damn good job demoralizing us. There is no vision or movement. We even question whether we should fight or not. Previous attempts to seek for recognition never got anywhere, and it seems logical to assume that future attempts won't make any difference since we are doing it the same way.
We Taiwanese consider ourselves smart, but maybe too smart we are to mobilize: classic collective action problem (let others do the protest). Most importantly, we think that it's futile.
It seems paradoxical that despite we have given up the hope of being recognized, we hold on to our Taiwanese identity tightly. For myself, I emphasis that I am from Taiwan or that I am Taiwanese. Part of it might be the negative image of Mainlanders. We distant ourselves from "them". Socially we clutter together. (interestingly enough, the barrier wears away once we personally know them, since the stereotype no longer applies.) We join facebook groups like "i am taiwanese" or "Fuck man how many times i gotta tell u I'm from Taiwan not China bitch!?". One reason might be our sense of guilt of not doing more to fight for Taiwan. We are losing out economically now. The last line of defense seem to be the quiet confidence that we are cooler than the mainlanders. We have better food, better soap opera, better singers, hotter stars, funnier TV shows, more attractive overall as a population. It's the style basically. But I can't help but wonder: what would happen if we can't maintain our (pop) cultural superiority? Will we let go our Taiwanese identity then?

On thoughts, again
Over the years I have started to recognize my inability to hold on to thoughts. I realized that the only way to keep my random thoughts, which a lot of times i consider ingenious. So I tried, using the good old fashion pen and pencil with notebooks, but that wasn't so effective. First of all, I find it hard to organized and record something chaotic like how thoughts usually are at the stage of formation. Secondly, I find it necessary to use a fair amount of words to describe the very feeling or imagery that pops out unexpectedly. It may have being the fact that my vocabulary is scarce.
Another thing is that thoughts usually disappear faster than i could put it down precisely. The fact that I have a habit of fixating on the correctness of my vocabulary and grammar and usage has made it difficult to write down things fast. Not a difficult habit to change I suppose. Perhaps its the best to start now, like writing sentences that are incomplete and fragmented. Poetry it may look like, but it may also be frustrating to read.
Bits and pieces of incoherent thoughts create a symphony.. I think its an amazing ability to download information or ideas directly from the mind to paper. It is usually in that process of translating from the language of the mind into the language of words where ideas get crashed or distorted and lose their true meanings when they once reside in ones mind. Perhaps it is the barrier that stops us all from being truthful to ourselves and others.
I think I already lost track of what I was thinking.
What is it that stops us from putting down our thoughts? I find it amazing for those who writes journals on consistent basis. In this case I mean private journals, not blogs that are written in expectation that other would read them (an interesting phenomena which i would like to investigate). Private journals have a different type of meaning behind it. It would seem irrational having to write down things that are not meant to be read by others but its actually a fantastic way to organize and keep track of personal experiences and feelings that could be easily forgotten. I think it is of great regret to have lost ideas because they disappear without a trace and may never come back again. Being able to write down exactly what one is thinking requires an honest soul. Too often we try to hide what we think and feel from others, we do it too well that we are unable to be honest with ourselves anymore. Moreover, we do it in an semi-conscious level (not sure if it is a real term).
I think we tend to fend off some "negative" thoughts from entering our conscious mind, by convincing ourselves that those thoughts don't exist. These thoughts may be incompatible with our recognized believes or values, and potentially disturbing to the degree that would be incomprehensible for ourselves. To be able to truthfully record these thoughts is courageous.
It is like to explore the dark side of yourself, putting you in front of embarrassment, guilt, and desire that are socially unacceptable. Only when those standards are applied to ourselves we start to see things in full picture.

First update at last
its been while since my last update
and today i actually think abt actually updating
剛剛login就看到了去年寫的草稿 dated 2/12/2006
原來我去年就想要update了,卻到現在才做
這個"嚴重的問題"到底是什麼我說實在也忘了
開頭寫這樣害我都想要再讀下去了,可是要再想起的機會實在不高
感覺好像被我自己賣了個關子,還滿嘔的
今天不是什麼特別的日子,在這麼不特別的時間重新開張我卻覺得恰到好處
因為不用想什麼應景的題目來寫,寫些沒什麼意義的東西也沒差
之前好幾次都想update可是也忘記為什麼都沒有,可能只是拖得太晚想睡
也可能只是為了first post該怎麼開始而煩惱
you might say that "欸呀,只是自己的blog而已,想那麼多幹嘛,想到什麼就寫啊!"
可是我覺得開張就是要好好的開始,隨便開始可能也會落得才幾個禮拜就倒閉的慘狀
所以不管怎樣
就是要寫多一點長一點,這樣看起來比較體面
講講剛剛被自己賣關子的事好了
其實這也不是第一次了,最近還滿常發生的,也就是因為這樣我才想開始寫東西
自己常常忘東忘西的
我說的不是忘記鑰匙放在哪裡,作業忘記寫的那種
而是想到了一些自己覺得很棒的東西或idea,可是還沒寫下來就忘了
"那就寫在筆記本啊"
嗯..good idea 可是我很懶得用筆寫東西,況且很多是要寫也寫不出來的
沒有經過自己碎碎唸加上紀錄是沒辦法整理出來的
所以最好還是用電腦打,以後也比較好access,我的筆記常常都不知道丟到哪了
話說回來
這種忘記東西的感覺還滿差的
尤其是像ideas or other creative thoughts
跑掉了可能永遠都回不來了
不知道頭腦是不是像硬碟一樣,剛忘記的東西像是檔案的資訊從MFT砍掉了
its deleted as we know it, but we can still find it if we really want to
可是時間一過,那一區硬碟可能就被另一個檔案overwriten
而腦細胞的連結也因為其他的資訊而被改變,wiping out the remaining memory
或許有很多人就是這樣失去了改變人生的機會
what about if you forget that you've forgotten something?
這樣倒是沒什麼不好的 since you wouldn't be aware of the loss
and since its all in your head, no one can remind you of what you have lost
想起了一個段子from "那一夜,我們說相聲" by 李力群 and 李國修
its titled 記性與忘性
提到了說記性壞的人活得挺愉快的,而他的解釋是 "你想嘛,什麼事都忘了當然愉快"
and i concur
and today i actually think abt actually updating
剛剛login就看到了去年寫的草稿 dated 2/12/2006
好久沒update了喔
自己都開始覺得我的blog好無聊
今天就來寫一些沒營養的..嗯..i mean隨性的東西好了
以前每次po的都是會讓我自己頭痛的東西
actually.. i think i do have sth to write now
其實我漸漸發現到一個很嚴重的問題
說大不大但說小不小
算是一個滿深的topic
這個問題我也已經發現了好一陣子
原來我去年就想要update了,卻到現在才做
