最近因緣紀會之下 發現了這個"新"歌手 看他的 mtv 真是像一股清泉
老美的mtv 現在都充斥著有穿等於沒穿的女生跳像脫衣舞孃似的舞
除了一點故事性都沒有以外 還很無聊 因為這幾乎是一種準則

花了兩天 我們終於把THOMAS的生日禮物给組裝好了
今年為了要買什麼禮物 傷透腦筋
以前幾次送的 XMAS OR B-DAY PRESENTS
因為許多可笑的原因 被他勒令退掉

賞心悅目的櫻花 已經在vancouver 盛開三星期了 雖然我們的冬天陰雨綿綿
但是卻可以換來綠油油的草地及美麗的櫻花
在這裡我們不用特意跑到別的地方
就可以欣賞到春神的痕跡

這次佳盈隔了一年又回來溫哥華探望咱們囉
相約到一家泰國料理聊聊近況
雖然我們可能一時有點陌生 但是以前所熟悉的默契很快就出來了
基本上我們都還是以前認識的那個同學 朋友

This is a rather serious movie concerning the role of media. It happend in the 50's where a politian's anti-communist measure stirred up quite a storm. The anchor of CBS newstation taked on issue.
This movie began with the anchor talking about television broadcast should bear a more meaningful role rather than just entertaining audience. Instead of a more neutral stand, this anchor used "excerpts from McCarthy's own speeches and proclamations to criticize the senator and point out episodes where he had contradicted himself. The anchor knew full well that he was using the medium of television to attack a single man and expose him to nationwide scrutiny, and he was often quoted as having doubts about the method he used for this news report."
What interestes me about the movie is not the history but how the media has the power to edit news material, take words or picture out of context and then us it to twist general public's opinion. Nowaday, this is evident on TV espeically during political power struggle. It's quite an ugly scene to see reporters' non-objective comments toward events on TV. The chaos in society is fueled by this kind of un-professionalism act.

前一陣子的焦慮 因為大家的鼓勵 又讓我有了活力
也許我們沒辦法天天一起喝咖啡 還是能夠有心靈雞湯似的支持
聽到friends 的主題曲 真的能體會他們間的友情
尤其喜歡highlight 的部分
 

昨天讀到一篇文章說:
撫摸軟棉的椅墊 柔順的頭髮 可以降低腎上腺素 一種壓力荷爾蒙
所以想要情緒瞬間冷靜 就近找觸感很柔順的東西 摸一摸 就好囉
哎呀 不早說 原來雖然我不知道科學的原因
但是我早就有感覺調戲咪咪會讓我高興了

真正的料多味美!A new found at downtown Vancouver due to my recent visit to the central library. It's located on the Granvil street across from Captial 6 theater for anyone that's interested.
This Japanese restaurant features the most authentic Japanese food (as far as I can tell anyway :)The reasone I say this is because when they served me this yummy Nebeyaki udon (鍋燒麵), the waitress did not just put down the dish and leave. She turned the bowl to a certain direction to face me. I know in Japan they always turn the "right" side of the bowl to face the customer although personally I could not tell the difference.

Besides the serving manner, their food is also very delicious. People may think it is a little more pricy than the usual cheap Japanese food we have in Vancouver. But I think it is well worth it. For example, this seafood udon in the picture has all sorts of seafood, eg. shrimp, salmon, halibut and clams. They are big pieces that one can easily see unlike in some other stores that the seafood is so small that it's hard to find. The soup base is also very tasty so it always takes a good 15minutes for them to make this dish. So for a mere $1 dollar more, one can enjoy a very satisfying meal.
Their sushis are very yummy as well. Besides not supersizing the sushis that could not be fit into the mouth in one bite, the art of presenting the food is shown remarkably here in the making of sushi. For example, their dragon roll is topped with grean avocado that looked like dragon scales and they are aligned in the dish to assemble the shape of dragon as well. The freshness of the seafood is impecable as well. Everyone workes in the restaurant is Japanese as well. All in all, this restaurant is a surprising good find.

最近不知道是不是春天來了 還是怎樣
覺得很鬱悶 做什麼都提不起勁
連吃飯都沒啥味口
很想逃離 但是到那裡ㄋ
有點焦躁 覺得應該要成就些什麼

春天到了
Vancouver is a super blessed city. When the rest of the canada is still facing the brutal front of cold winter, we are already welcoming cherry blossom among with other flowers. These past two weekends, we were especially lucky to have some long-missed sunshine . The blue skyline decorated with pink cherry blossom (櫻花) along with mild breeze made this felt like a dream.
Every year, around this time, I miss Taiwan so much especially. The smell of fresh grass from people mow their lawns, the happy chriping of birds and the blossoming flowers in the garden all trigger my desire so. It may stem from the fact that I always used to go back home to visit every year after my spring semester when we first moved here.

Unconciously, I am conditioned to long for HOME when spring sets its foot here. Even though, I have lived here for 10 years, I still think Taiwan is my home. Part of me never left the land. The memory, the history, and the friends. Now the calling is just growing strong with the blossoming flowers. I wanna go home~
