A couple weeks back, I saw a deal for a GPS system that was orinally 300 and on sale for 200. It was on sale for the next morning. Next morning I woke up and saw that the deal was still there, so I was very happy, and started to do a little bit of research. ( Actually I already did some, but just wanted to make sure that it is not crapy so it's so cheap, *most GPS are more than 300 bucks. which I think is BS ). So about 5 minutes later, after I was sure that this isn't a bad choice, I went back to Staple.com, and... yes... you're right... it's gone..
so I was very very mad! 不死心, Drove to two other physical Stables store, and surely they were all sold out. This particular event bothered me so much. Cause you rarealy see a 200 bucks GPS. There aren't even crappy ones that cose that little, and this one actually gets pretty good review.
I was so pissed. that for whole week whenever soemthing relates to GPS flips me out. and apprently, this behaviour of mine bothered Dinana.
So, just that week, she saw the deal again, and this time it's $198 dollars. So HURRIED to e mailed me to get it, and even treid to call me. I, on the other side, as as I got the e mail, I finished the trasaction in about 5 minutes. She was hoping that this little hope she offered can shut me up from complanning about not able to get that good deal GPS no more. :)
So.. finally.... I GOT my GPS!! one more on list gadget in my bag. one more step closer to gadget complete.
Apprently this cheap GPS is actually pretty good. It's so awesome that it found Frank's new hom the night b/f, and Wal-Mart for me last night. GPS = Awesome!

Grey's Anatomy
Have you seen Grey's Anatomy? I have not until this weekend. Diana is the big fan of it, so she sorta makes me watch it. I saw one current episode at her place once, I liked it, so she gave the whole season two DVD set. This weekend is black out, so.. me and yi lun watched.. hum... over two days... 7 episodes....
THIS IS SUCH A GREAT DRAMA. it's like OH MY GOD. like I said to yi lun.. I can probably blog for like 5 pages tonight. There is just way way way too much going on, and there is way way too much that you can talk about and think about. It's way way too thought provoking. I don't know if Diana watches it the same way as I do, I actually hope she doesn't. Because it actually really makes watching it very tiring. There is way too much to think about.
Well, after all, I am not going to blog for 5 pages, I'll just blog about this one of so many.
It actually kinda sad that, at the end of the day, it's a drama. and we don't live in any drama. Though I do think that this Doctor job sucks, and people are under just way too much pressure, so do we people who don't live in Grey's Anatomy. All of us are. Whether you are in school or at work. We all are under high pressure. But, unfortunately, we aren't in a drama, and we won't have an episode not being able to stop crying. Christina is under so much pressure, she holds in so much that it finally burst out, in the script, and the episode. And the fact is that we all do wish to have such an episode, an episode in life, and episode to be weak, to break down, to be like a baby, to be responsible free. Don't we? There is so much to suck up in life, and yet our script does not seem to include a natural break down on any page.
Yes this is not something to learn from the show, little dpressing it is, but definitely something to realize, or say.. reminded...

雪就算了,連個風雨也擋不住。
這西雅圖真是搞笑,上次下個小雪,天下大亂,今天來個暴風雨,風其實真是蠻大的,然後搞得公司停電,我不能工作。現在 Redmond 跟 Bellevue 的路燈都沒電了。家裡的電燈,閃呀閃的。這個西亞提真是個貴夫人耶。如果是台灣的颱風,我看又一個月不用上班了,真是的。

我叫金三順
我知道這個韓劇已經很舊了,不過現在美國這邊的中天在演。
其實剛開始我完全沒有在看,後來是因為比較閒一點,斷斷續續的看了幾集。後來去了 oklahoma ,回來又開始忙了,就沒有在努力看了,不過前幾天,又趕回來看了十五分鐘,看了以後,真的就很想知道發生了些什麼事情。
昨天,很早上班,然後就突然想說,去 YouTube 上面找找,看有沒有人有 POST這樣我就可以把 missed 掉的捕回來了。
結果!!不但有,還是全集,韓語發音配英文字幕。
這下可糟了,停不下來了,邊上班邊看,一連看了好多集,今天!竟然就把他給看完了。
晚上回家的時候發現,竟然中天還沒有演完,哈哈哈。
有這麼好看媽?其實也沒有,只是我又像個女人一樣的感觸很多。與其說感觸,其實是感覺,跟著男女主角一起的情緒起伏,我好能體會他們兩個人的心情跟感覺。他們經歷的每個痛,我都知道是什麼樣的感覺。
愛,真的好難好難。
雪的笑話,之二
星期五跟幾個人吃午飯,其中一個較長老的,跟我們說,這裡的小朋友,包括高中生,有 "2nd winter break",聽到的時候,我們幾個剛畢業的小朋友,驚聲尖叫,什麼????怎麼會有這種事??
繼續聽下去
hun?? 為什麼?為什麼有第二個 winter break?
因為這裡的冬天太 "miserable" .......................
這 ... 這..... 太可笑了吧。
台灣的草莓族,沒有抗壓性,這裡的大人小孩都沒有抗雪性........

阿~這是晚上還是早上
上星期跟這星期我都需要很早到公司,上星期第一次早到公司真是嚇死我了。
我大概六點鬧鐘響,爭開眼,窗外是一片黑,然後就回籠覺,多睡了半個小時,想說,眼睛打開應該會稍微有點藍藍的微亮了,結果還是沒有,我就去洗澡,洗出來,找不到路回房間,登沒開,完全是黑的,七點十分,車子開出門,天還是黑的!!!而且是像晚上十點那樣的黑。
我真的是太久沒有這麼早出門了,真的不知道現在這麼早,天是這樣黑的。
我七點上班天是黑的,六點下班,天還是黑的。 -_-"

Portland 之旅
Saturday, yi lun, me dinana, frank and tina went for our first portland trip.
portland isn't such a great tourist, but then why do we drive 3 hours there?
THEY HAVE NO SALES TAX.
Frank just moved to his newly bought house. and he's in need of stuff. he bought a set of bose speakers and also needed AV system. so he bought one in portland, with a rare discount and no sale tax, it's a pretty awesome deal.
but, if he just goes alone, he'd not really make it up for gas, so we all tagged alone. went to the outlet, 每個人都殺紅了演。
it's really petty nice, for only $100 bucks, got bunch of stuff home.
sweet :)

first foot ball game in bar and first Office Holiday Party
今天是 Office (這裡所謂的 Office 指的是個產品,而不是辦公室的意思)的 party。
去以前,跟 Diana 去看了我人生的第一個 foot ball game in a bar. 這算是我人生的小小遺憾,在uw沒有去看過一次football。
i finally learnt how to watch one. it was a pretty good game.
then we came back to dress up and go to the party. diana came to my place to change, and myself, spent freaking half hour to find the sweater I want. so sorry...
it wasn't that good, though it was pretty big. got food and casino.
wasn't all that fun, but still a good event to attend and pretend to relax.. oh.. and drink for free....
pic to come..

Just Some Snow
So apprently Seattle does not know how to handle snow at all.
We came back on Monday, and it was actually snowing on Monday. By the time I arrive, snow was already gone. But the high way was crazy. Tuesday, I went to work, OMG, no body was there. I checked my e mail, and some of my collegues actually took 10 hours to get home by 3 am. OMG.
around 2 pm or so, our big big boss actually wrote an e mail, basically telling everyone to go home. he also wrote one in the morning to tell people not to come to work. Wednesday, my lead still took off. Thursday, two of my collegues still took off. basically it was too slippery to drive. And the forecast said that it was going to snow again on Wednesday, so everyone again took off around 2, I left around 4 too.
it's so awesome. just like 0.5 inch of snow, we get like a snow day... oh.. no i mean.. snow WEEEK. it's like an extended break. everyone says they are going to work from home. I SERIOUSLY wonder if people really work when they are at home. maybe a little, i'd bet most likely not as much as if they were in the offfice.
See the real problem is that, no one really tries to get rid of snow, while it's snowing. You are supposed to spread Salt and Sand all over the place, but no body does that. So snow quickly become ice, and it becomes too ice to drive, so everyone drive like 1 mile per hour on high way.
If this bit of snow makes the 天下大亂 for 3 days... I think winsconsin should simply close down for winter. no schoo and no work during winter.. :)

so...........boring.....................
Friday night... after work.. diana went to a sonic game, me and yi lun were so........... bored....
the only good thing was that we tired out a new Taiwanese restaraunt that's really actdually pertty nicely good. it's the best 台灣小吃 i have had in the US. thought the carge everything as if they are full course meal. you know how small 小吃 are.. and they chart as much as a real dish, so.. it ended up pretty expensive. awesome place to go, but can't go often.
but then we were so bored... no where to go in bellevue, ended up using poker cards to play 五子棋跟圈圈叉叉。we don't do bars, and don't feel like driving so far away to go to bubble tea place. didn't feel like watching movie... and ended up no where to go... sigh.........
this place is pretty boring !!
