When I get older, I will be stronger...



Today I spent most of my time in the office...I worked on my term paper...Yeah again, not a single word was written...


This noon I did spend some time on the serious thing. However, later the afternoon I spent all my time to explore things I felt interesting. Pro.C is on vacation and I feel so free to try things as "wildly" as I want.

He once said that management fee should not change the result due to the small    value. However, I always want to add back the fee, which makes me feel more comfortable. Since he is away, I finally did my experiment. Moreover, I learned some introduction knowledge of SAS macro and SQL. And I adjusted some codes and wrote the codes for stationary bootstrap. Macro and SQL are not as hard as I thought. I think I will try to use them more later. They are really interesting and useful. When I finally completed the codes, I felt so happy and I giggled like a dummy again. It seems being happy is so easy...  

But where is my term paper?  

Luckily, Pro.C is away. If he was here, I would be much more nervous and under great pressure. He is so nice and helps me so much. Anyway, I need to speed up. I must hand in the paper in time. No excuse!

I listened to the song "waving flag" all day along for almost two days. For one thing it can make me awake during work, for another I think I learn something recently just as the song sings. I think I am too emotional recently. Yesterday and today's experience taught me a lesson. I should learn how to adjust myself and there is still a lot of fun of learning. Studying is a fun thing. Just for this, PhD studying is worth all I input...Hahaha, an advertisement for PhD Program...Please, please let more girls be here...They are in great need...

                                  I am getting older, I am getting stronger:)


Yeah, it was a happy children's day...

Yesterday was really a nice day. 

As soon as I got to school, I just met Pro.K on the second floor. He is one of the nicest and most wonderful people I've ever met. He gives me a lot of help and support. Most importantly, he shows me the positive side of PhD studying and sets an example of how to lead an optimistic life for me. Yesterday during the thesis proposal defense, Pro.S's cell phone rang. It took him quite a long time to turn it off. I and J laughed, because Pro.S looked a bit awkward and quite cute. Pro.K laughed as well. The laughing face is so vivid in my head. It is the typical naughty boy laugh. I don't know how he keeps such a young heart. I hope when I am in my sixties, I can be as young as he is. Hahaha, I should stop talking about him here, since I give my blog link to him...

Yesterday I had several nice talks, with my fellows, Pro.Z and Pro.Y, two professors from other fields. I had a good laugh and felt much happier. I enjoy talking with my fellows and I talk a lot with J, an go-to-infinite nice Canadian girl. (I will record some of the interesting things and jokes we've ever had.) Moreover, something what they said was quite inspiring...

However, there was a bigger holiday present waiting for me. Last night, I checked my renren account. It is something like facebook in China, but I am not very passionate about it. But! When I reviewed the friends invitation, I found a name making me quite excited. She is a long lost friend to me! She was the best friend in my high school and senior high school. We have not been in touch for almost 6 years I guess, because we both left home and studied in different places. She was in my dream for several times. And always the dreams were so vivid that even when I woke up I could still remember everything happened in my dreams. Always always I felt quite sad. She was the target on the first floor which I threw the chalk to from the second floor. She was the little slave who always lost the bets and carried my super heavy bag for me on our way home. She was the guinea pig who I tried all my tricks on and got great fun from. She was the person who always felt so unfair because others considered me as a good girl due to my quiet appearance and good grades while she, the talkative and a little boyish one, was always considered to be the naughty one. So many sweet memories...

When I replied to her invitation, I called her dummy as before without thinking. When I checked my QQ frineds, I saw she had been added to my chatting list and she  
changed her state as "finally find Y_ _ Y_ _ ". What a familiar calling! I checked her website as well. She is still as skeleton as before ( being fatter than her was always something I was proud of) and still keeps the dummy's sunny smile:) Until now I still have not got a chance to talk with her because of time difference. Hope she will go back home from Japan this summer, so we can meet...
