Finally I decide to become a dedicated alcoholic (wasn't i already be?!). After collecting some basic liqueurs and ordering equipment on the Internet , the experiments have started! The first trial dealing with two basic basic cocktail: MARGARITA and COSMOPOLITAN Since I didn't have blender at that time, the MARGARITA was actually FROZEN MARGARITA that doesn't need blending. And the products are below: 寄件者 Cocktail lab Comments: First of all, I didn't have a MARGARITA glass, which was essential, and thus my salt ring turned out to be a disaster. For COSMOPOLITAN, my sis said the color should be more pinky rather than ruby. Most important of all, about the flavor...Both of them were overwhlemed by the strong Cointreau, probably because of diluted juice. That reminded me that I should use less Cointreau next time.

決定以後寫好吃的店要寫店名! 上上星期跟某位買了小套房的色X吃飯 在市民大道上晃著晃著不知道該往哪裡去 (原本要去的鼎王前面排了快三百人!) 想說彎進223巷看要不要吃無國籍食堂 不過又想說應該要踩踩雷 (not 采采蠅!) 就走進了這間超級超級小店 門口的超大充氣招財貓都快比店大了 吃了些什麼早就不記得了 但是味道很不賴 是醬燒式的串燒很入味 價錢算一般 很有氣氛的一間店 東西很好吃,美中不足的大概就是人手不足所以要有耐心 但是因為有招待的毛豆加上啤酒 三五好友坐著等等菜也就不知不覺地上了 如果要練習日文可以跟日本老闆切磋一下

前一陣子為了體會人生的甘苦所以持續我們踩地雷的旅程 這次來到了傳說中的永康街 吃了一個有名的在轉角的義大利麵 (應該很好猜) 結論是...還不錯 肉醬麵不賴 不過辣培根麵是台式口味就見仁見智 畢竟是小店所以我覺得OK 當然還是有更不錯的店 --> 就是台大附近的SOHO 一定要推的 另外一家是在通訊地址附近的最近剛上蘋果日報的日式料理 這家店真雷啊... 雖然食物OK 但是服務很不OK 首先等位子等了20分鐘 不是因為沒有位子 是因為沒有人有空帶位 然後等點餐又等了30分鐘 最後等上菜又等了30分鐘 而且我都吃完我的餐了另一份菜才來 其間其他桌有客人就不爽閃了 我們居然可以吃完真的是...很孬 為什麼小小的店有三位服務生卻沒有空服務呢? 因為有一位服務生超級混 簡直就是閃神 一直在廚房跟餐桌進進出出但是都沒做事... 當然另外兩位也沒好到哪去 基本上就是他們每次只能做一件事 如果他要上菜 那就是他上完菜就又走回廚房 根本無視有其他桌上有空盤要收 不然就是上完菜發現筷子還沒給 這又等了5分鐘他才想起之類的 結論就是這間店我給-4.5顆星 沒有扣的0.5顆星是因為食材還算OK 但這間店絕對是超級大雷 因為它絕對不值得花兩個小時去等一個簡餐 進入九月也到了申請的戰備期了 還是不要踩雷 乖乖吃不錯吃又便宜的溫州大餛飩的紅油炒手麵吧!

想當年為了玩踩地雷廢寢忘食玩到一兩點真是年少輕狂 或許就是因為這樣才有肌腱炎的... 不過這邊要說的踩地雷跟M$的萬年不衰遊戲無關 是Food踩雷! 本人不是一個很喜歡嚐新的人 每次出門去吃飯總是挑常去的 要我自己走進一間沒進去過的餐廳 除非早就做好功課確定不雷的才有可能 不過這個星期我連做了兩次鼓起勇氣走進神秘的餐廳的英勇事蹟 目前戰績是一勝一敗... 勝的是現在住的附近一間小小日本食堂--有明屋 一個日本老闆賣一些日本套餐的店 小小一間不甚起眼 不過菜色種類很多而且口味也蠻扎實的 算是以後會再光顧的 可惜只有位子不多要等 另外一敗是來自於閒逛於酷斃了的師大夜市 因為不想再去吃美式早餐所以決定走進...又是一家日本料理 (我怎麼這麼愛去日本料理啊-.-||) 一般來說賣定食套餐類的日本料理要做到真的不好也是有難度了 但是真的讓我遇到不好吃的日本料理了 這間店名我不便多說 因為這家店在ptt上也是評價兩極啊! 總之如果一間店讓我感受到跟料理無關的不舒服 我是不可能會再去的了 這間店就是這樣的不舒服的店 沒想到短短一個星期內我居然敢蒙眼踩雷兩次 真是佩服我自己 不過以後還是乖乖坐些功課才好 現在有了blackberry bold可以打中文 真的是站在店門口google一下心裡就有個底了 後記: 有人抗議說都沒有講到她這個真‧勇者 特別在此表揚她的功勳 因為她在師大夜市踩雷行中點了傳說中的壽喜燒牛肉飯 沒想到居然來了整整一大碗滿滿是奶油的奶油...飯 (請問有牛肉壽喜燒跟奶油哪裡有關的八卦嗎?) 大概是店家覺得奶油也是牛的一部份吧 +. 總之 這位勇者至今都還不敢在她的早餐麵包塗上她以前最愛的奶油了 讓我們為他默哀一分鐘....

I don't know if my experiences are considered as "near-death experiences" or not, but i am sure they are definitely things I don't want to get again. 1. When I was young, every time I drank coffee I felt a sudden palpitation. There was one time during my first year in the master, when we were having the open-book hell-like finals, that I had to get some stimulants to stay awake. I decided to get coffee, but later I realized it wouldn't get me conscious. Rather, I felt strong palpitation and dizziness. There was a sudden I thought I was dying. It only took 5 to 10 minutes before I got my full-consciousness back, but I felt like the whole process taking a life-long. 2. It was when I was driving my car home two years ago, after a typical lab day with my not-so-tired mind. All of the sudden I felt a wave of dizziness, and I might lose my consciousness for only one second. However, with the wheel in my hands, that one second was simply enough to be forever (in death!)....

F: U have to move out my house to learn how to live independently! S: Alright, so may I get one? F: No way, u have to stay in the one I bought, U SPOILED KID! S: Alright (then I shall go to your "DESIGNER STYLE APT") Two months later... F: I didn't see u live independent. If u don't achieve, I won't agree ur marriage. S: (I never said I am getting married...WTF) Well, where did I got wrong? F: U have to learn to live independently! U SPOILED KID! D: Hey, F told me to teach u how to live. S: How? D: well, I don't know, since u clean up the place even better than I did. I guess u are just in the hot spot. S: sounds like I don't have to do anything since nothing will improve my status. D: remember just treat it like a hotel room. S: So I have to be a house keeping guy to be able to live independently! Maybe I should apply for a house keeping job. D: maybe u should just not move too many things so that u leave it like u've never been there. S: maybe I sho...

來到這個南港遺世獨立的地方兩個月 遇到了不下二十個認識的人 從高中同學到隔壁實驗室的學長 猛然發現我身邊真是一堆參與科學研究的人 不知道到底有多少人目標是以科學為生的人呢 (或是為科學而生的人?!) 當年Dr. Engleman告訴我Stanford決定一個phD學生能不能畢業的標準只有一個 就是whether he can be a good scientist or not 渾渾噩噩過了兩年多我也終於下定決定去試著成為一個good scientist 但是究竟做到什麼樣的人才是good scientist呢? 以廣發paper為職志的人應該不是 但是畢竟偉大的科學家一定是樂於分享的 真是愈顯矛盾的問題 今天又跟大家聊到為什麼要念博班 雖然是開玩笑的語氣 但是感受的出念博班的人動搖的語氣 當然，話說回來 人生的決定都是在不能百分百確定的情況下做的 最後也只有硬著頭皮拼下去或是選擇休學吧 不過，早一年唸晚一年唸 在平均70年以上的人類壽命來說 只佔了1/70 或許也沒那麼急迫 慢下腳步多想兩分鐘...(你可以不必po這篇文?!) 如果一直灌輸lab的summer這些想法不知道他們會不會就休學重考去了，科科

近來我受託看管兩條有史以來最不友善的狗-蓬鬆的老將跟球球 由於他們都沒有朋友所以我只好去位在假豪宅最多的台北國信義市他們家陪他們 寄件者 Puffy the veteran - 蓬鬆的老將 有鑑於這裡的生活機能遠高於偽豪宅密集度第二高的大直 沒有每天都出去吃就太對不起自己了 前天去了A11的GB喝喝啤酒 點了個下酒的炸鱈魚 沒想到又是惡夢的開始... 昨天晚上肚子突然不是很舒服 在馬桶上呆了一陣子 不過因為我本來就是腸胃蠕動旺盛的人 一天上個五六次跟喝水一樣輕鬆 也就不以為意 沒想到下一位人士要用馬桶的時候才發現大勢不妙 有一層噁心的organic layer懸浮 (我有沖水!!) 接下來的12小時內我就持續x出這些water-insoluble 的hydrophobic fecets... 連放的屁都變成油的 加上我平常排氣量就很大... 最後差點沒有褲子可以穿 最後上了google查"放屁漏油" 沒想到真的讓我查到了 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oilfish 原來是油魚假冒鱈魚 結論是吃魚真是比吃肉危險! 吃肉頂多得個癌症 吃魚不是發生histamine fish poisoning (HFP) 不然就是重金屬中毒 真拿它沒有辦法~

上星期了結了GRE這個天殺的傢伙後 (我好想知道我考多少@@) 買了顆Core Quad 做小升級 沒想到卻是災難的開始 費了一番功夫把電腦打開 卸下主機板拆掉我那個超難拆的CPU散熱器再換上CPU再裝上超難裝的散熱器再鎖上主機板 接好電源一按開機...沒反應...再按...還是沒反應..............................凸 不會是主機板還是cpu被我壓壞了吧 不死心地把主機板再拆下來檢查 如此重複三次 在午夜1點我將要放棄時 腦中靈光一閃地決定試試裸裝 沒想到就真的可以開機了 真是$%@^T%$#GV 最後換了一個新個機殼就完全沒問題了 真是拿我的電腦沒有辦法 (攤手)

After two months in the merciless financial world, I realized that I might get easier to be in the science. Although I am not smart enough to make revolutionary discovery, it should be okay for me to be okay here. After all, it is some how less...beguiled. Even though geeks still can do bad, they always do it in geeky ways --> much less harmful but more hilarious in most cases. I can remember the smell of all the organic solvents, good to be home~ 寄件者 Blogger 圖片 Good to be a scientist!

The mother of my lovely unikula has passed away, through a painful way TT. She was a smart dog knowing where to find another shiba male to mate, and that is the way uni and ikula came to the world. It's painstaking to raise a dog so be responsible all the way to the end. From Uni & IKuLa - the lovely shiba inu - 雙柴寶 collection

A long long month has finally passed my - my first month of full-employment! Working in a security investment company is a whole-new experience...but not so good Waking up at 6 am every morning is so painful @@ --> just like the god-damn military Well, there is still one thing to be glad --> I got my certificate of security 2!$#%$^ (高業，whatever its English is) today! No need to stay late in the company ^^~ A transfer from science to finance is really a tough play, but they are not that different after all. Logic is the basis of them, and taking care of all details to deduce hypothesis. However, a big different point is that we make it as carefully as possible in science, while in finance we make prediction as our conclusion (kind of weak for a scientist @@). People do make unreasonable prediction in science, but definitely not as much as in finance. A field of assumption from nowhere --> might be the origin of credit bubble :). Whatever the flaw it has, it is a good experience...

Finally, with some luck maybe, I got my first job interview in my 26-year-old life (not very quick after all?!). Though I have taken some school interviews before, job interview is something different! I applied for some clinical research assistant (CRA) positions before the Chinese new year, but only one company replied T>T. Whatever, at least there is a firm willing to interview me. So I went for the Nxxxxxxs company for the interview today (actually I had taken a prior interview last week, but it was more like a form-filling process so it didn't count in), and the weather was like the hottest day this year. The whole process could be condensed to one word, "personality", and mine is not that good (ha). After all, it is an experience sooner or later will come so I am glad that I finally made my first step towards the real world! There is definitely lots to be polished.

This is a short story of trust. When I was young, which was about 10 years ago... (ok, not so long ago la~) Unfortunately, I failed to get into my school of dream --> HSNU (well, it doesn't matter anymore, since it has been 10 years, ha). With 2 points short, I went to the CKSH, the school of the not-that-smart nerds. I remembered that on the first day of school, the principal then took a speech in front of all newbies. (the traditional bureaucratic style!). I forgot most, but what I did remember well is that our old old old sports stadium was going to be replace by the modern design within 2 to 3 years so we would see the new one soon after we finished high school. Well...time goes by so speedily. The whole 10 years just slipped away, and I am now a guy with no job T_T. And finally...finally the new stadium is almost done! What a matter! After all those bullshit and idiotic bureaucrats' words, it is really happening!! --> From Blogger 圖片 So unbelievable! Wh...

哭哭 經過了26個年頭騙吃騙喝騙紅包的過年之後 今年終於輪到我拿不到紅包了@@ 更慘的是去年居然莫名奇妙大家都約好地生了一堆小孩 我也就莫名奇妙地又多了五個姪子姪女-.-|| 還有人生了雙胞胎咧 這樣沒有犯規嗎?裁判! 荷包大失血的感覺真是!#$%#!E%#$@ 過一次年真是讓我感受到景氣寒冬... 還是趕快找個工作實際些 最後附上我失落的紅包跟我家新來的wedu~ From Blogger 圖片 真是淺顯易懂地向大家說明了口腔期的定義啊! (顯然現在可以吃的比可以花的重要許多...)

話說 又到了過年送禮的季節 有道是有頭有臉的人物總是愛送禮來送禮去的 (有沒有過年愛送禮的八卦?) 今年我家當然也是擺滿了各方大頭的禮物 但是有別於往年 今年大家都很不約而同地送了....米 對，就是用來吃的米 就是那種沒什麼營養只有澱粉萬惡的熱量來源的米 事情的發生都要從前幾天我們敬愛的麥嘟的爸爸馬伯伯送了一包台灣米開始 (對了，他們最近有上報的說) 看到這包米真是令人感到蠻有創意的 畢竟市道不好 要像2000~2007年一樣揮霍地送大禮有點技術上的問題 不過接下來包裝精美毫不環保絕對讓人吃不飽的各式台灣米就像雨後春米(?!)一樣蹦出來了 大家好像說好一樣 感覺不送台灣米丟西抹愛台晚啦! (台灣農產品前進大陸失敗一定都是阿共仔的陰謀啦!) 結果就是我家堆了一大堆很小包的米 原本我媽嘟有整理好的 不過我來不及拍照就這堆煞有其事的米被參在一起做成....沒有人分辨得出來的米缸的米了 畢竟這是一個不管是喝茶還是喝咖啡都是喝粗飽的家庭 這些米到底是嘉義某米米達人費盡25年光陰改良而成 還是隔壁老王昨天在家樂福買的特價米 好像也沒那麼重要-.- 尤其是當這些米有一大半都要進到外面那些有了飯就沒了主人的狗嘟的肚子裡的時候 --> From Blogger 圖片 有沒有我家的人都有嘟的八卦?

終於開始找工作的動作了， 雖然原本想再ㄍㄧㄥ久一點的， 不過看到大家都很努力地找真是不加油也不行。 開始準備之後就又意識到寫履歷真是一門藝術， 到底要怎樣講我的做實驗經驗， 到底要怎樣算我的GPA， 到底要怎麼豪洨我的實習經驗， 到底要怎樣蓋我的未能發表的OOXX一堆， 到底為什麼我找這些實習工作， 真是一團亂啊， 有一大半大概都是無腦的去年的錯， 我想我的腦細胞還在恢復到70%的狀態吧-.- (要不是可以在專長裡寫說會用一點點Photoshop...這一年可以說真是完全浪費了) 現在自己最主要的應該就是眼高手低的問題， 既不想做這個又不想試那個， 整天只想著最難的目標， 真是累了 (耳邊響起張爸文的"你累了嗎?聽首歌吧~")， 還是腳踏實地應該比較有用， 畢竟第一個工作我的最主要目的就是要去體驗去尋找工作經驗的， 談了很多人生規劃如果沒有踏出去就變成嘴泡丸了，科科！ 希望年前找到工作，揪咪>.^b。
