那天，我在整理電腦存檔時發現了「它」。
如今重新細味，百感交集。

Recap
我不但喜歡潛水、有時連性格都很「潛」。以往每逢休假更是定必外遊。剛剛過去的一週，公司休假，我竟然一反常態地留在紐約休養生息，相約友人茶聚。
再次見面，儘管只是閒話家常，與友人言談中的感覺總是很奇妙。同時間，我不得不承認大家真的長大了。外表可能沒有多變，心智卻明顯地成熟了不少。
另外，雖然來美多年，但我很少參觀博物館。(I didn't notice Brooklyn Museum is next to Brooklyn Botanic Garden until recently. ~.~") 這個星期卻去了兩次[博物館]。首先是蔡國強於Guggenheim Museum以火藥爆破為材 (我想他以外星為題) 的藝術展。
(Thank you Laura for taking this shot for me!)
然後從朋友口中和<<紐約時報>>的介紹中提及紐約多間博物館入夜後會變身成派對場地，聽起來頗有趣，所以我們一起去了湊熱鬧。
We chose to go to the American Museum of Natural History. I heard of the new exhibition Water: H2O = Life at the Rose Center of Earth and Space when I was watching the Colbert Report the other day, but dancing underneath the giant ball and standing next to ancient fossils was just beyond my imagination. I did it and it was fun. hah!

政冶觀點與角度
Riot in Tibet: Clarification
雖然中國的Censorship是有名的，但是西方媒體是不應該把南亞的暴力衝突及武力鎮壓事件都推到中國政府涉及西藏的問題上。
「做人不能太CNN」

Update
Tonight's birthday party at Zerza was a success! We all had so much fun, especially when the belly dancer came along... haha... Good time!
It's 4 am on April 13th. I have been up doing several things since I got back. I think the hookah is keeping me awake. Well, maybe it's good because I am [finally] updating my blog. hah!
Two updates:
1. My cell phone is fixed, but the old pictures can't be retrieved.
2. I am going to have a week of this week though I have not decided what to do. Any suggestions?

NBA night at Madison Square Garden
NBA game New York Knicks vs. Charlotte Bobcats at Madison Square Garden
As you may have known, NY Knicks has not been a leading team for various reasons... And we were not expecting much about Knicks, and this game, but the ticket was so cheap. 超值票只是$15 (a hot dog, a pack of chip and a 24 oz soda is included) It was a good deal, wasn't it? Before the game, we were already prepared to yell, "Fire Isiah Thomas!" if Knicks was losing.
我們跟一眾山頂上的朋友食熱狗、飲汽水、大叫、喝倒彩和拍手，氣氛很好，加上球賽異常地激烈，眾人都樂在其中。
Also, during breaks, instead of watching commercials, we enjoyed cheerleaders dancing, drummers, 3-pointers contest and such. We also got several updates on National Hockey League's playoff between New York Rangers and New Jersey Devils.
Surprisingly, Knicks won this NBA match and Rangers won the NHL match on that night. Cool!
I might go to see LA Galaxy in the summer, wanna join me?

Unlucky Sunday
死機
My cell phone has been a useful device in my comprehensive alarm system. This morning, after I turned my cell phone off, flipped it, and I fell back to sleep like I always did. However, when I woke up, the screen of the cell phone was not showing any images. Two-third of the screen was blank with bright background and the remaining part of the screen was completely black. So I turned it off and turned it back on. Well, this time, the power was on, but not the screen.
When this happened, the first thing that came across my mind was my pictures. I saved about 40 pictures I had taken at school and work where I did not carry my camera with me all the time. I never backed up those pictures or saved them in any other devices. I never thought those images meant so much to me.
I decided to have my phone fixed right away. At the subway station, there were already a lot of passengers waiting on the platform, so I thought I would not have to wait very long. After waiting for 15 mins, I overheard a man talking to the station's agent. He was yelling at the agent, complaining about the long wait. I could not hear what the agent said, but it turned out that all trains skipped our stop. Without notifying us, the agent made us wait and watch all other trains running bypass the station for that long. We left with disapproval.
I finally arrived at the store though I was too early. Once I got in, I was told that no technician would be in today, so I had to come back.
