太好了, 可以在這裡寫中文 !! 上個星期六在 ebay 買了一塊新手寫板, (舊的不能用了)是想和香港的朋手在 MSN 聊天的. 但是我發覺打英文比用手寫板輸入還快. haha...
不過用手寫板都好, 可以幫助我記得多些中文字. 我巳經忘記了許多字是怎樣寫.
唉, 短短幾句中文, 已經用了差不多十五分鐘去完成. 太差勁了!! 好, 明天再寫.

Help Needed
Tonight, I went back to Gateway to visit my Physics professor. I sent an email to him and asked for help on some Statics problems a week ago. He is a awesome teacher who made me understood lots of basic physic concept which has been very useful in my classes now. Now I am having physics problems, of course I go back to him :D He gave me some help on Statics and some solutions of my book. I am so glad and thankful for what he did to me. Since I am not a Gateway student any more, he didn't have to do more work for me. So it was very very generous of him.
I chatted with Becky couple days ago. she said she was going to cast on a pair of socks, and that made me want to knit a pair also. So, After I said goodbye to her, I casted on the Jaywalker Socks right away.
I have finished my Liesel Scarf. I have used 5 balls of Debbie Bliss Baby AIpaca Silk in Lavender and it's very very long :D I have blocked it and it looks much better now. I love it.
Finally, I have made some progress on crocheting the rice cooker cover. It's only made by single crochet, very simple, but hey, I am a beginner, and that is very difficult for me. (In the picture, there is my new Hello Kitty measuring tape)

Forgetful
I am so mad at myself. Last night, I went to SnB. I remembered to bring my girls some Intuitions, I remembered to bring Val some DVDs of 24. But I just only not remember to bring the scarf pattern to knit there. So, I had a bowl of soup and a glass of ice-tea there, and then headed home. Stupid me.
It's only the third week of this semester, but classes are already busy. Since I am in the new curriculum, I have to take a managment class. I guess it's good for my future, but I am not liking the class and that was why I didn't pick Business for my major. *sign. Why do I have to take this class? On the other hand, I am having lots of fun in the Chinese class. On Thursday, some Chinese students came to our class to teach us sing a Chinese New Year song and chinese dancing.
I recently have been teaching myself how to crochet. It's not easy, but I am trying. So far, I have a project in mind that I want to make. I want to make a cover for my rice cooker. So, I need to know how to crochet a circle. And these are the products of my experiments.
As for knitting, I haven't done much since I have been busy in school. After I posted the finished Kyoto sweater here, my best friend Renee has placed her order on that. I am so happy that she likes it, because I know she would tell me the truth if she thinks the sweater is pretty. I talked to her on phone last night. I miss her so much. We are truly the best friends since we tell each other everything, I mean everything. I loved shopping with her, we would be so honest to each other if I didn't like the top she picked out, I would tell her directly. Or she would tell me the skirt I tried on was horrible. And I love that, that's how a real friendship should be, to be honest to each other. I don't think we even had a fight since she always has been very understanding and thoughtful. Sometimes she cared me more than her boyfriend. There are so many good things about her, I miss her very very much, miss playing mahjong with her, miss shopping with her, miss laughing with/at her...

Bragging
If I say it in a nicer way, I like to share my good stuff with people. If I say it in a "truly" way, yes, I like to show off :D I am a honest person. I don't like to hide my feelings, unless it's "necessary". Some people would hate me, but some people would appreciate my honesty. Anyway, here we go...
I have finally finished the Kyoto sweater. The whole seaming process was the delaying factor. It's doesn't look to nice, but it's done and fit me!!
I finally shopped outside of AC Moore. There was a SuperBowl Sale at Yarn Garden and Yarn Barn yesterday. I finished all my homework, well, most of them, so that I could sneak out for couple hours yarn shopping. I only got sock yarns at Yarn Garden which had 41% off of all yarn. So these are what I got. I didn't get anything in Yarn Barn because there so like 40 people waiting in line to the register, and the store was ridiculously packed, with people of course. Plus, not much nice yarn were on sale... very disappointing. So I got 3 hanks of Cherry Tree Hill's superwash merino fingering weight in (from the left) sugar maple, spainsh moss, and spring frost, and a ball of scheepjes? I don't know what language it is... 75% of virgin wool and 25% of nylon. So 4 pairs of socks, they will keep me busy for long time.
After yarn shopping, Andrew and I went fish shopping. Since we have been rearranging the living room, we thought we might get away of the fish tank. But we still had 2 fish left, which we don't want to just "kill" them. So we bought a small fish tank for them. And then after we moved some furniture, we found out the big fish tank actually wasn't really too big for the living room. So we kept it. We bought 8 more fish for the big fish tank and 3 gold fish for the small tank. So who is the happiest now? Sticky of course.

My professors are killing me!!
I remember I did very bad at one of the high level Math class in HK. One of the reasons was I didn't study hard enough. Another reason was I had a horrible teacher(Chui sir). He didn't know how to teach. this is how he taught: He would read a math example from the text book. I mean he really was reading words to words... x+3 = 2x, so 2x-x = 3, then x = 3. Then we, the students, would ask, why 2x-x? Then he would say, because x+3 = 2x, and then 2x-x = 3, therefore, x = 3. If we still didn't understand, he, honestly, would just read it over again. And that's why I always blamed him that I failed the class. As I thought I had escaped from him, I am having another professor who does the same thing now. OH MY GOSH!! Another book reader!! I don't want to fail this class!! He is killing me.
There is another one who is killing me. Couple semesters ago when I had Chemistry at Gateway. That Chemistry professor used his math expression wrong. If we needed to find the answer of 100 plus 50 divided by 50, he would write the following equation in "one" line on the board:
100+50 = 150/50 = 3
What's wrong with that? Yes, the answer is 3. You may hate me, but as a "math" person, that expression is not correct. It can't be writen in one line. To me, the above equation means, 100+50 = 3. So I was bold enough to tell him that he was wrong. After that, I thought it was over, but nooooo. In one of my classes this semester. Another professor does the same thing again!! And surprisingly, he was major in Chemistry too!!!!!! This time, I think I am not going to say anything to him, I am just letting it be. But it bothers me really bad.
As for knitting, I keep pushing the Kyoto sweater off since I really don't like seaming. It's collar is still not attached yet. May be next week, I will finish it. On the other hand, I am having a little progress on my Liesel scarf. It doesn't look so good now, but my friends in SnB told me once it's blocked, it will be pretty.
I am sorry that I said I think I am fat. Since the last post, lots of people told me I am crazy because I said that. But I bet most of my HK's friends won't argue with me about that. It's just different cultures. Anyway, I shouldn't say "I think I am fat", I should say" I want to be thinner". It is just a personal feeling.
