最想念的水果–blueberries
October 31, 2009 at 11:08 pm | In 團購/Group Orders, 心情筆記/Journal, 美食廣場/Food Court, 趣味生活/Smiles in Life | 8 Comments問我離開加拿大後
最想念的水果是什麼
大概就是藍莓吧
以前在加拿大 夏天尾巴
正是藍莓豐盛時期
可以直接到農場上採籃莓
也可以直接買已採好的
多數時候我喜歡去採
然後邊採邊吃
離開之後由於大多都進肚子了
再另外買些已採好的帶回家
回去之後有的冷藏
有的凍起來 備日後使用
唉~ 超想念的
Fresh Blueberries--As Fresh As Can Be
這是今年家人去採藍莓時拍的
特地寄給我看 我也放上來給大家欣賞
三年前 透過關係
有機會買到新鮮空運來的藍莓
好吃阿 可是好貴阿
5lbs就要NT$1400
後來因為我們團購訂大量的壓到NT$1200
第二年 第三年我就沒買了
價錢更高了
現在5lbs要NT$1800
Yummy blueberry bagels! How I miss fresh blueberries!
不過呢現在有機會吃到blueberry bagel
也不錯啦~
這叫沒魚蝦也好嗎?
重新出發
October 31, 2009 at 10:38 pm | In 心情筆記/Journal, 減重筆記簿/Weight Management | 6 Comments前幾週 由於身體太虛
我放棄每日上網紀錄我的飲食與運動量
基本上最慘的時候
我連基本的上班上課都做不到
這幾天感覺比較好
也決定重新出發
再次日日做紀錄
也開始漸漸加上輕微的運動
比如這兩天已經有出去走走路
雖然不久但是我也不敢把自己弄太累
剛好明天11月1日
就從明天紀錄起吧
錄音
October 28, 2009 at 10:54 pm | In 心情筆記/Journal, 趣味生活/Smiles in Life, 隨便說/Random Thoughts | 4 Comments上週六下了課
大秘書派了一個差給我
要錄音 把某學生的課文錄到mp3
說真的我一向討厭被錄音
討厭對機器講話
更討厭要留言在答錄機上的
但是秘書並沒有給我選擇
她已跟學生說好週二9:30pm可以拿
於是整個週末 除了休息 昏睡
我一直在煩惱這件事
30篇文章要錄到mp3 真的不少也
只因為我的accent 是北美的 並且我是女生
到了週一 我決定了 請一天年假
早上睡晚點 下午專心開始錄音了
真的錄了很久 每篇至少3~4分鐘長
還要扣除唸錯再錄 或鄰居背景聲音等等
還好有中學同學來
他就靜靜一旁聆聽我唸
對他而言是在練習聽力
還要不時聽我的抱怨
錄音這個差事
似乎都會自己找上我
更早之前公司老闆也派給我
他覺得 我們的電話語音的部分
中英都給我包辦就好了
為何要分那麼多人錄音
難不成習慣錄音也是我要學習的功課之一嗎
就把它當裝備自己的一步吧
Millie Sitting Attentively

乖乖坐著的米粒--看起來是不是有點呆又有點可愛?
This here is Millie’s latest photo. Also the position I find her in most often lately. I think it resulted from our “sitting” lesson. In order to train her to sit when I want her to, I give a tiny bit of a treat when she does so upon command. But she’s got it in her head it seems that if she sits and waits attentively, she’ll get the treat. How do I tell her to sit when she’s sitting already? Beats me! But doesn’t she look adorable?
嗚~ 好苦!
October 25, 2009 at 9:39 am | In 心情筆記/Journal, 隨便說/Random Thoughts | 11 Comments嗚~
要哭訴一下
中藥好苦
上週五 在同事的陪同下去看了她介紹的中醫
中醫生很細心的為我把脈 也聽了我從2004年以後的病症
最後跟我說 他覺得藥粉的效果不會那麼好
還是希望我吃煎好的水藥
現代科技發達 為了方便民眾
中醫師那邊會把藥先煎好
分裝成像料理包一樣
要我帶回家放冰箱
早上睡醒了 飯前一包
晚上飯前也一包
使用方法用隔水加溫
或倒出來微波即可
我的中藥料理包--好苦阿!
聽來一切很簡單
可是他騙我
誰說不苦的
我一小包喝了快一小時
終於喝完了
可是還是覺得有苦苦的感覺
然後居然要喝好幾個月
嗚~ 人家不喜歡看醫生
人家更不喜歡吃苦苦的藥!
New Look, New Me
October 22, 2009 at 10:05 pm | In 心情筆記/Journal, 趣味生活/Smiles in Life | 7 Comments
一口氣把頭髮剪成這麼短! 剪了至少一半的原長度
This evening as I was walking home from the bus stop, I felt I needed some change. So why not a haircut?
And the result? I walked out of the hair salon a couple hours later with half the original length. My hair barely touches my shoulders now. And, I have bangs! Like little girl ones that go across the forehead. My hair is still wavy, but the permed ends from before are all cut off. I’m back to my original color, too. The dyed portion had all grown out and with this haircut all’s gone!
I considered dying my hair again also, but decided that would take way too long. Perhaps next time. I like the new me. I feel more energetic.
累攤了
October 20, 2009 at 10:36 pm | In 心情筆記/Journal | 2 Comments過去一週真的好累
不是那種很忙碌的累
而是體力名副其實的一直流失
i feel drained
上週末我整整攤了三天
週六臨時向補習班請假一天
週六日在昏睡中度過的
連自己是在現實 是作夢 還是有幻覺都分不清楚
週一一早隨著鬧鐘勉強起來了
等把米粒安頓好我也準備好要出門了
發現我已體力用盡了
於是打了電話給主管
然後就在地板上昏睡了
今天上半天還是很難過
但是下午有比較好
下了班晃去給中醫看
以往他都讓我任性的不吃中藥
這回說什麼都不許我任性
他說我氣血太虛 一定要先吃點藥
當下的我眼淚一直掉
人家不要吃苦苦的中藥
我不怕挨針 不怕吞藥丸
獨獨怕那湯湯水水粉粉的中藥
話說 狗狗有兩歲小孩的智商…
October 18, 2009 at 7:29 pm | In 寵物雜記/Pet Tales, 心情筆記/Journal, 趣味生活/Smiles in Life | Leave a Comment前陣子 同事轉寄了一篇報導給我看
據說狗狗有兩歲小孩的智商
能夠認250個字
於是我開始回想米粒會哪些
不過我覺得不能以單字算
要以command (口令)計算
比如說 英文的”sit”中文就變兩個字”坐下”
我來算算, 目前我的millie 懂的phrases 有
Command / Action
————————————————————————
come, come / comes to me
NO! / freezes on spot because she did something wrong
What did you do? / squats low while trying to sneak away at the same time
尿尿 / pees
好棒喔 / softens her ears and wags happily because she’s being praised
棒棒 / softens her ears and wags happily because she’s being praised
乖 / softens her ears and wags happily because she’s being praised
吃飯 / (sometimes) eats her chow (other times, refuses and toys around)
坐下 / sits (sometimes needs a tap on the behind to remind her
睡覺 / occurs at night only when she wakes up and it’s not time. then, she goes down again
好開心喔~ / dances around in circles at my feet
ready? ready? go! / eyes on ball or toy, runs off to get the ball or toy. however she doesn’t always give it to me
抱抱 / comes running into my arms
快點, 快點 / walks faster to keep up with me
沒禮貌 / when her feet/paws are the table, i tell her that’s not polite, tap her paws and down she goes
呵呵~
看來米粒要有很多進步的空間

狗兒智力相當二歲童
2009-08-10
中國時報
【中廣新聞／郭希誠】
加拿大狗專家卡倫說，別小看了狗，狗的智力跟兩歲大的孩子差不多。
卡倫說，聰明的狗大概可以知道兩百五十個字的意思，懂些手勢，懂得五以下的數字，智力比兩歲的孩童還高一點。
卡倫說，不過，有的狗聰明一些，有的笨一點。狗的智力跟品種有關。多數的狗都能懂一百六十個字左右。還知道一加一等於二，相當於兩歲孩子的智力。
依照卡倫的說法，最聰明的狗是邊界牧羊犬，排第二的是貴賓犬，第三名是狼狗，第四名是黃金獵犬，第五名是杜賓狗。
要是你覺得自己養的阿富汗獵犬、巴仙吉狗或是鬥牛狗不太聰明也別惱，因為這三種狗是腦袋排名倒數的三種。
These days
October 18, 2009 at 4:55 pm | In 心情筆記/Journal, 減重筆記簿/Weight Management | 3 CommentsI haven’t posted much. I haven’t kept up with my exercising or weight management either. I haven’t been feeling too well. I’m drained by the end of the day and sometimes mid-day. Friday I left work early, and Saturday I called in sick to the cram school and they found a sub. I like that class and wished I could be there, but physically I had absolutely no energy in me. I ended up sleeping pretty much all of Saturday. Once I gather myself together again I will resume my normal routine. Until then, I need a bit of a break to recover.
Millie是洋妞
October 14, 2009 at 10:56 pm | In 寵物雜記/Pet Tales, 心情筆記/Journal, 趣味生活/Smiles in Life | 11 CommentsThey say, that a pet takes after the owner.
好像真的也~ 大家都笑我外國人
言行舉止連吃的也很多偏像外國人
最近發現米粒也是也
因為Millie 愛吃cheese
只要有cheese零嘴她都愛
吃的動作超級快 其他也吃
但偏愛cheese 有趣吧?
另外呢 她跟我一樣是bilingual 的
因我對她喊的口令都中英夾著用
但她似乎也習慣了
在來呢 小洋妞越來越發福了
之前大家嫌她瘦 我想要改變想法囉~
Day off with Kitty
October 10, 2009 at 9:31 pm | In 心情筆記/Journal, 減重筆記簿/Weight Management, 趣味生活/Smiles in Life | Leave a CommentIt’s been a while since I’ve had a day off together with Kitty. Her schedule rotates, whereas mine is fixed, except for weekends. So now that she’s scheduled Saturdays off and I happened to have these two weekends off due to local holidays, we decided to go visit Jenny at the restaurant. We surprised Jenny with our afternoon visit, and it was nice to get together again. Lately, each time I go, Jenny’s extremely busy and barely has time to say hi.
Kitty brought along her neice, whom I’ve dubbed “sandwich” as she always walks between us wherever we go. She’s a very sweet and nice young girl. I like taking her out with us as she behaves so well. Millie came along too and the two had fun playing together.
早: club sandwich, 綠豆沙
午, 晚: at Jenny’s: delicious full meal that I can’t recount
水: 900
運動: 走路25分

Fire Drill
October 9, 2009 at 11:23 pm | In 心情筆記/Journal, 隨便說/Random Thoughts | Leave a CommentWe had a fire drill in the building today. We had to evacuate the building and meet up at a designated spot before we could go for break. Elevators were shutdown and we had to take the stairs. However, I think there were many faults in our drill.
-Someone asked, what if one is pregnant, should the person have to take the stairs also? I really think that is a question that’s not necessary. If one is pregnant and there is an actual fire, what would happen? Elevators would be off, and you would have to leave by stairs. If you are not in the building, or under normal circumstances, you would take the elevator.
-Many of the people left early so as to not have to take the stairs. I think that defeats the purpose of the whole fire/evacuation drill.
-We were suppose to meet up at a designated spot to check in before taking off for lunch. Many skipped the process leaving the rest of us wondering what happened. Imagine what chaos that would be in the event of a real fire.
-In the past, as we were leaving, someone was in charge of doing a unofficial head count before leaving the premises, than official head count at the designated spot. This time I don’t think anyone was keeping track. Therefore, no one told anyone as they left the building. I think each section should have tried to account for all personnel. Or at least call out as you are leaving.
-The designated meeting spot changed without much notice. It wasn’t very obvious in the email attachment.

Getting cooler these days
October 6, 2009 at 8:46 pm | In 寵物雜記/Pet Tales, 心情筆記/Journal, 減重筆記簿/Weight Management | Leave a CommentThese days, since the mid-autumn’s festival, it’s been getting cooler and cooler day by day here in Taipei. I think I need to start digging out my fall/winter clothing now.
Millie got a piece of clothing from Betty as a sort of birthday gift. Betty said Millie will need it for winter. I shall have to photo Millie in it for all to see. We don’t really know what day is Millie’s birthday, but the doctor had guestimated her to be about 10~11 months in July. So, that puts her at a bit past one year of age now.
早: cereal with milk

Latest update on “Fifty”
October 5, 2009 at 11:18 pm | In 代禱事項/Prayer Requests, 心情筆記/Journal | Leave a CommentOver half a year ago, I posted a series of prayer requests regarding a massage therapist whom I know. Click here to read previous posts.
This time I’m posting to give a praise report as well. As of Oct 1, “Fifty” is back on duty. The accident has taken its toll, leaving him blind in one eye and with a limp, but he’s mobile and back at work. Please continue to pray for him as he continues to recover. Pray for strength and energy as that will be much needed to work fulltime again.
不喜歡過節
October 5, 2009 at 5:06 pm | In 心情筆記/Journal, 戀愛物語/Cherished Moments | 4 Comments坦白說 回台灣這幾年 我很怕過節
每次過節 大家都開始計畫著回家
只有我不知道要去哪裡 雖然親戚很歡迎
朋友也相邀 去了總是feel out of place
之前沒男友 大家只覺得我沒地方去
有了男友 大家都assume我應該跟他回他家
相對對我也是一種壓力
不是我不想去 而是我不希望 要我開口要求
我也不想剝奪他能夠短暫陪母親的時間
另外 我也討厭被拿來比較
為什麼別人怎麼樣我們就一定要怎麼樣
我們自然有我們的相處模式
節日當天不一定有空
但是我珍惜他願意花時間陪我
今年中秋前夕他要回高雄老家
可是他願意播出下班後的時間陪我用餐去
一餐吃下來也兩三個小時
邊吃邊聊邊拍照 (兩個套餐各八道我們都拍了)
然後吃完飯他再自己搭夜車回去
只為了要陪我慶祝中秋 我不該感動嗎?
每次過節我的情緒就來了
動不動就想掉眼淚
但是他讓我不那麼排斥過節
因為即使在遠方 他還是會關心我
確定我有計畫 而不是自己悶在家
況且他只是回去不到兩天
一下又回來了
