理想主义和享乐主义

这是为什么我总是沮丧和沙和尚为什么总是高兴的根本原因。

Long island

I am a person full of complaint. So naturally, when I move to a new place, I complain about it.

Qing asked me what long island is like. I said not good. She asked how not. Actually I don't really know exactly what are not so good. I told her it's a small town type of place, too countryside. So she asked, like princeton? Oh, no, not as upscale. Like berkeley? Not as dynamic. And not as beautiful as palo alto. Not as fun as new york.... Okay, qing said. You are comparing it to the best aspect of the other places...

Today, an early saturday morning, after some rain last night, with light breeze over the face, a fresh smell of green grass, a cup of coffee at hand, I start to feel that maybe it isn't really that bad.

沙和尚+蜡笔小新

最近的四个事情:

1,因为沙和尚不认路,所以我教给他,在拐弯的路口,要找标志性建筑物,比如,我指了指前方的一个bank of america,噢,沙和尚做明白状,左看右看,大叫:这个路口的标志性建筑物就是一个yield sign。我晕。。。。

2,我们去吃一家buffet,沙和尚很喜欢吃里面的蒸的鱼,但是只吃边上的一小点蒸的比较嫩的肉。我表示不满,说他:你还真难伺候呢!他回答:不要因为困难就放弃哦~~~

3,我更新我的网页,用的是一个稍微老一点版本的microsoft frontpage,总也搞不定,沙和尚自告奋勇来帮忙,一会说搞好了。我跑过来看,发现teaching一栏下写着:How to Control Husband 101。

4,一次谈话时谈到杨振宁,沙和尚很开心地说:等我到29岁的时候就achieve了杨82岁才achieve的事情 -- 娶了一个28岁的老婆。
