September 24 My First Order for Online ServiceTonight I placed my first order for online service, or rather, my first payment to the software/service industry, though I've been I'M A PC for 13 years. Actually still a little reluctant to move on... Finally no way to walk it around, no free/open source substitute by community, or free license/service from my school or the company. Hmmmm, it's Yahoo!, not my favored Microsoft or Google. However, I have to admit Flickr is really cool, not to mention and its huge active community. Fine, I remember once I felt the UX of Flickr was so wired; and I was sick with blue cheese at Harold & Marilyn's when new to the States, but I EAT it now! OK, anyway, I'm working at Forefront Online team, and you guys would pay us for our state-of-art online services by the judgment day, no matter love the idea or not. Order Summary
September 20 悼念顾老师团支书同学在msn上告诉纪律委员同学顾老师过世了。不吸烟不喝酒天天锻炼身体，却30多岁就离我们去了，什么世道！顾老师是我初中三年的班主任，求学路上对我最好的老师之一，当初各种原因处罚我无数次（貌似几个男生班干部一直都是打击重点），把我培养成乖乖好学生功不可没。 September 13 One Shot to Death at UC Irvine Campus昔日模范城市，按照设计大师理念，短短几十年间在南加州荒漠上从零拔地而起。曾蝉联全美治安最佳城市，研究生母校所在地，一直为广大Anteaters津津乐道。 争论中的9万亿财政赤字，地球人无论男女老少人均借给美国政府不知道什么时候才会还的1500美元，约合10000人民币。明白美国从全世界60亿人身上搞去多少钱了吧！所谓too big to fall。美丽画皮继续撕开中。轮胎贸易战，祖国加油！ September 10 Company Meeting Again 果然，第二次参加Company Meeting就有点犯困了，中途几次离场跟朋友出去边看风景边聊天，最后在SteveB表演正酣时提前退场。整场三个亮点： Bing搜包包的可视化效果，女生少妇大妈们一定大爱。 StevenS从Macbook Air壳里面掏出更加超薄的跑Windows的Sony VAIO，有周星星电影的意思。 SteveB在与小兵们亲密接触时发现有人用iPhone，一把抢过，做欲砸烂状，最后只是放在了地上，离去。不管是不是排练好的，效果非常好玩。 Natal很不错，只是早就曝光过了，而Ray Ozzie演示的下一代user experience遥远了点，就不在此列了。顺便先对比下去年写的。别说7了，Windows Mobile 6.5都还没出来！ Quote Company Meeting 2008"Blue is for myself, and I'd like to show you orange." 不禁又想起刚过去的性格测试分析，和Annual Review时跟经理的讨论。 September 08 My First Annual Review 跟经理谈人生谈理想谈工作谈生活谈成长。一年之后，可以用英语聊这些了。一年之后，没有升级，没有涨工资。一年之后，学生气消退不少。话说性格决定命运，知识改变命运，时势成就命运。没有资格唏嘘世道多艰，只能再感叹一下这些年来性格的渐变了。 是人就会有惰性，得不时自我push一下。 September 07 赴美三周年整 这次周年纪念日是在旅途中度过的。 收到来自老爹老妈的周年贺信，大爱，原文如下： 观念决定方向，思路决定出路，胸怀决定规模，你具备这些条件，所以成功属于你。庆贺工作一周年！ 爸妈贺 然后我习惯性地Google了一下。。。 September 04 Insights into Personal Effectiveness Facilitated by Insights SeattleNice team training. I love most the methodology on differentiating persona conscious from persona less conscious and then the preference flow, which, obviously, indicates what we are pushing ourselves to achieve, or, in another word, the compromise between who you are, who you want to be, and who you need to be. The difference between my self estimation, teamates' review and the experiment result proves!!! I believe personality does matter for one’s career. OK, now here’s a bit of mine. Color Preference: Blue, Red, Yellow, Green Self Estimation: Blue, Red, Green, Yellow Experiment Result: Green, Blue, Yellow, Red "Hey, dude! So I’ve been working here for one year. Really curious about what gonna be years later. I believe it gonna change. Definitely.” -------------------------- Blue - Give me details Red - Be brief, be bright, be gone Yellow - Involve me Green - Show me you care September 03 不速之客
倒地，打滚，耍赖。最后我哄了半天才抱出去的。最近在家做饭比较多，常来光顾的猫已经不只这位Miss. Cat了。囧rz “我对大妈没兴趣”不灵了。不过“半夜我睁开眼睛，发现猫也睁着眼睛——看我”这种人间惨剧也不会再发生了。lol September 01 其实还有10多天From: Start at Microsoft-New Employees
