October 07 希拉里·克林顿的退选演说美国大选非常近了(刚好和我生日很近),我还没有成为公民(其实这个月就可以申请了,不过费用也蛮高的,以后回国还有签证费用,不核算,再等等再说,反正十年绿卡在手也蛮方便的,就是欧洲游不太方便。亲戚们决定五年后再一起游欧洲,那就五年后再说吧),所以没有选举权,我劳工对政治不关心,投谁都无所谓,我的邻居一个女老师是非常忠实的欧爸妈拥护者。
且不说这些,我想起几个月前的希拉里·克林顿的退选演说,觉得她的很多话,说得真是好(不过,看中文翻译不容易体会到,必须看英语原文和现场视频)。
她对于自己参选的意义,也总结得非常漂亮。
October 06 Google发现的十条真理Google有一个网页,叫做“我们的哲学”(Our Philosophy),上面列出了十句话。Ten things Google has found to be true. Google中国分公司的网页上,有官方的中文版,翻译得很忠实,但是I like the English version better。 下面就是这十句话: 1. 用户第一,然后其他事情就会发生。 (Focus on the user and all else will follow.) 2. 最好的方法就是把一件事情做到非常、非常好。 (It's best to do one thing really, really well.) That's what I need work on. I need learn to do one thing perfect before I get involved with another issue. 3. 快比慢好。 (Fast is better than slow.) “我们也许是世界上唯一一家希望用户尽快离开自己网站的公司:最快地给出用户想要的结果,一个多余的字节也没有,并且还在致力于变得更快。”(This is the first Philosophy I learned from Google. It is most famous too, I think) 4. 民主在网上很管用。 (Democracy on the web works.) 相信民主的人在互联网上能获得成功,相信管制和独裁的人在互联网上必将遭到失败(I think you understand what this means.) 5. 要寻找答案,不一定需要办公桌。 (You don't need to be at your desk to need an answer.) 6. 不干坏事,也能挣到钱。 (You can make money without doing evil.) I am not at that kind of position with power to be bad yet. :) 7. 未知的信息总是存在的。 (There's always more information out there.) This is what I always believe. 8. 对信息的需求无所不在。 (The need for information crosses all borders.) Information=art ? :) 9. 不穿西装,不代表你不专业。 (You can be serious without a suit.) Some people feel more serious with a suit. Even me, I feel more self-confident in a suit. 10. 只是优秀还不够。 (Great just isn't good enough.) This is what I learned from my MBA application process.
September 25 party girl and her husbandIt is always my party, my husband will go with me most time.
Sometime I go by myself because the party was late at night.
I enjoyed most parties.
However he complained some of these parties.
He said in some parties he was just the babysitter. He watched kids and there was nobody talk to me or listen to him.
He likes talk. He talks without stop.
However most people do not like it this way.
Especially when it is a PARTY.
Not a meeting, not a speech.
So even I can not stand his long explaination about one thing in party. He can tell you how does XXX work for half hour.
However people may not care about this.
I do not know how to cheer him up. I do not know how to tell him his conversation method is not popular in party.
Party is for people to relax. If people want to know details about what he said, they can check it out on internet or ask him more. If people do not ask, just do not go too far.
He is a good man. He just need some communication skills to make him popular in party.
September 23 随感三四篇最近感触颇多,今天就都写下来。 一。溺爱与吸毒 002上的精灵说她的一个朋友被他的儿子杀了,正躺在医院里,成了植物人,很悲哀阿,这种电视里的情节居然真实的发生在身边,不能说不震撼。在我看来,都是溺爱惹的祸阿。 要是我发现自己孩子吸毒,肯定第一时间让他呆在身边,自己工作也不要了,培他一起去戒毒所戒了。戒毒很难,但是有亲人在身边会好很多。 所以现在好多美国父母,实在是太担心孩子在外面交到坏的朋友,这个吸毒的事,多半都是被朋友给带坏的。 记得有一集,一个老中年妇女,儿子杀了人,她开始说他是目击证人,后来在法院上突然翻供,保下了她儿子。结果她儿子继续虐待她,不给他吃好的,一天就一点面包,不给他任何钱,大冬天的晚上把他妈赶出去,发传单赚钱。天阿,才四十多的女人,看起来象60多的。结果警察去找她,她还是不愿意指正,说进了监狱他儿子就毁了,她要自己“帮助”儿子走上正道。还说她上一次的育预然儿失败了,她要这次能成功。看得我好辛酸,一方面为她不值,又对她生气,她儿子的失败人生,很大一部分因为她的溺爱阿。可怜之人,必有可恨之处.
二找工作真的不容易 记得五月份突然回国之前,我曾和大家说过,经过了两个月三次面试,过五关錾六将,终于拿到了一个口头的offer,结果我回来以后,人家就变褂了,还拖了我一个月,然后说,不要我了,我真是晕死了,怎么有这样的公司阿。 然后因为八月份要去德国,我也就没正二八经的找工作。八月下旬度假回来以后,连续发出了好多简历,没想到都杳无音信,打电话过去,人家说申请的人太多了,要慢慢看简历,没法很快给我答复。好吧,我等。终于等来一个面试,过程很愉快轻松,人家也说了,一周内就有答复,结果又是三周的等待,我受不了了,打电话过去,人家说,没想到这么多人申请,面试还在进行中,再等一周。天阿,完全打破了我过去对于美国公司有计划有效率的概念,非常的失望。 上上周接到一个电话面试,还不错,虽然对方的好多话我没理解,反正不妨碍她对我的了解,然后人家说,他下周去度假,两周以后回来再继续面试。 这个职位我还是很喜欢的,虽然这方面的经验不多,但是我一定要试试。希望能成功。
三 木耳 和 香蕉船
前几天,我想起家里还有一些木耳,虽然我自己也不怎么喜欢木耳,但是想起它包括防癌在内的诸多好处,就泡上了。 晚上,我切了点牛肉丝,用酱油和生粉裹上,又剁了几头蘑菇,把木耳细细的切了,下油锅一起炒了,末了放上一大把的菠菜,起锅浇在加了鸡汤的粉丝上面,端上了桌子。
劳工问我这是什么,为了鼓励劳工的吃饭积极性,我没说是木耳(他不吃的),只说吃完这个有甜点,他的最爱,香蕉船。好,他来劲了,连吃好几筷,然后砸巴一下,说味道不错,可以作为保留曲目。这时我告诉他,有木耳,然后再在他面前灌输了一堆木耳的好处。不错,这家伙没把木耳挑出来,全吃下去了。
为了保养,我制作了香蕉船。这还是第一次在家自己做,外面买的要5刀呢,现在儿子也喜欢吃,三个人就十多刀没了,不爽,就试着自己做,结果很好,三根香蕉,十分钱,七八勺冰淇淋(自己作的好处,可以少用冰淇淋),不会超过一刀,一些巧克力草莓的topping,也不会超过一刀,结果就这么三刀不到,满家欢喜,何乐而不为呢。
四 孩子是来讨债或者还债的
下面片断是我在002的发言
You are right. They did not ask us to bring them to this world. 起因是002网友鲤鱼儿问大家她该不该出去工作,正好我也是一直有这个思想斗争的,我劳工也是由反对被我说服的,所以我就发言了。其实我现在在002发言不多,一来最近看小说,所以不常去002,二来从前经常说话的一些人走了以后,新来的那些不怎么熟,懒得说。
可是我是个很实际的人,我不是圣母马力亚,作不到为孩子牺牲自己,我还是想要自己的事业的,我也不想孩子成为我生活的中心,这样万一孩子出点事,我会跨掉的。所以我追求自己的生活。所以我希望孩子能感恩。
下面是我之前和鲤鱼儿的对话
September 19 DonationMy friends ask me about how is Texas now? Did anybody get hurt?
Yes, it was IKE who killed several people in Texas and scared lot more.
Some people came north Texas to avoid the IKE. I met one in HEB. His home is very close to the beach. He said he was gona drive back since the IKE is gona. I asked how was his house. He said the roof was gona and fence was damaged badly. Anyway he and his family are all fine. That's the best.
Texas food bank was empty on Monday because of the IKE. There are still many people in Austin waiting for foods.
Today, I collected what's on my food closet, put them into one box, sent them to the food bank. I hope this little bit foods will help somebody.
I also give away some shampoo and show gel. I think they also need them.
Hope everybody go through this fine.
September 18 Jimmy is growing upHe has been very good rencently. He can sit down calm and listen to Ms. Betty when she is telling a story to the class. He finishs his homework and ask for more. He eats well and finish all foods on his plates (even though still ask me to feed him these foods he may not really like.) He had a piece of baked chicken breast and some salad today. It is his first time finished all his salad. Vegetable is always his dislike. But he finished it and told me: mom, I will become big and not sick.
I always tell him that he should eat like Bruce. Bruce eats whatever I give him and grows up fast. He is now wearing Jimmy's old 2T piece( he is only 1y3m). He is a big boy.
I walked with Jimmy after dinner. He loves it. He enjoys this period when He is the only child get my attention. I think I should keep on going. hehe
Really happy to see him grow up. September 15 Potty or Party?我想成年人应该不会把这两个词念错的。
不过我家老大才说话没几个月,嗬嗬,昨天居然闹了个大笑话。
我带着他去参加中求得party,去之前问他,要不要potty,他说不用,很坚决。
结果到了要接的女友的楼下,突然来一句,mom, I want to go party.
我给听成了potty,只好让女友带他上楼小解。
结果他一进门,没见人,没见party应该有的那些东西,非常失望的对着阿姨说:I want to go party.
这下才知道,人家压根不是要potty。
September 14 German trip 3
German Trip 2
大家中秋快乐!(Bonus pics about German trip)大家中秋快乐! 刚从一个中秋节的聚会回来,认识了两个新朋友,一个是香港来的,在这里读书四年了,十九岁的女孩子,很有爱心,和我家老大玩了好久。一个是和有孩子的姐妹,两个女儿,老二婕美,和我家老大的名字发音非常的近,岁数也差不多。 聚会是教会举办的,说实话,我对教会一直不感冒,一直是无神主义者,但是身在异乡,没有了以前二十多年积累下来的人际网络,只有这两三年新交的一些朋友,这些朋友里面,有孩子的,特别是同龄孩子的就五六家,三家还住的非常远,油价涨了以后我们聚会就少多了(一次聚会要十刀的油钱哦,很吓人的)。所以我一直为了孩子在寻寻觅觅。这次遇到那家也有孩子的,我决定去他们经常去的教堂看看,先去参加他们下午的自由活动。至少这样,孩子为多一些朋友,多一些户外活动,对他有好处。 呵呵,有了孩子以后,连交朋友都以孩子为主了,真是变化大阿。
