鳥達的眼淚 – 嘉明湖 – II

第二天早上我們是三點半起床，這裡的氣溫並沒有非常低，我只加了件毛衣和外套而已，心裡有點小小的怨歎，每次總是會多帶一件衣服上來增加重量，不過這個想法在第三天早上就徹底消失了。^^a

大概五點左右我們從工寮出發，這時太陽也差不多快出來了，看著天邊被燒成火紅的積雲，心裡還是蠻感動的，感覺平常應該是沒有機會和閒情逸致來欣賞這樣的風景。 Continue reading “鳥達的眼淚 – 嘉明湖 – II” …

鳥達的眼淚 – 嘉明湖 – I

星期三下午，抱著煩悶的心情上完最後一堂職前訓練的課後，便趕緊趕回宿舍，收拾行李準備回西螺，跟老麥搭捷運到台北車站後轉國光號，很幸運的正好趕上了八點的車班。另外值得一提的是，那班車真是我坐過最迅速的車，居然只花了兩個半小時就到西螺了，嘖嘖。不過我身體有點不適，又愛在車上看影片，結果搞得自己頭暈眼花，真是自作孽啊！

第二天早上我們大概七點左右出發，路上跟老麥東聊西聊，按照著前一天晚上查的交通路線，大概兩個半小時就到了甲仙和其他人會合，之後我去採購了一些行進糧還有中午要吃的午餐，兩輛車便繼續朝著向陽出發。 Continue reading “鳥達的眼淚 – 嘉明湖 – I” …

We Really Don't Understand Each Other

qq invited many of the club’s elder members to have a dinner. I didn't know Kilo will attend. I thought qq knows what I was thinking. But beyond our expectations, ocell invited her. (my guess) When she told me about that at the place we waited each other, I was stunned. After a while of thinking, I decided not to appear. I feared of meeting Kilo and spoiled the happiness of their meeting.

I left and after I bought my dinner, Kentu called and told me that Kilo left too. Even so, I still didn't go to meet them. My mind was messed up. I thought Kilo didn't have to go. Her leaving appears that she really don't understand me thoroughly. Did she think her sacrifice could make me relaxed and going back?

But maybe I really don't understand her thoroughly either. She might think my action as a sacrifice, and I also messed up her mind. That's the reason she left. But what should I do? How could I treat everything just as fine and not happened?! How could I watch them talking, laughing and enjoy the dinner?!

Maybe many people think my reaction is very immature, but that's me and my belief. Yes, we don't understand each other. And the situation may last, forever.

皇帝殿岩稜

早上起床後悠閒地吃個早餐，之後便直接往北宜公路出發了。一路上路況相當的不錯，不知道是不是因為北宜高通車的關係，說不定以現在的路況，走北宜公路也不見得比北宜高慢到哪去。

從北宜公路上的一條小路可以拐到石碇去，這裡的車輛更少了，整條路就好像是我的一樣，沒騎多久就到了石碇的市區，看起來有點像老街的樣子，小小的一條，不過可能要等到下午人潮才會多起來，早上只有一兩個小攤販而已。 Continue reading “皇帝殿岩稜” …

IV Is Difficult

Today we had a class about venipuncture and drawing blood. Sowhat was my partner, and we practiced on each other. Because we had practiced drawing on brachial vein in our third year, we decided to start on the vein of the back of the hand.

I tried first. I put on the gloves, tied the rubber tube, and sterilized the skin with the alcohol pad. All went well. But when I pushed the IV catheter into the skin, I couldn't find blood back through the catheter. I tried to change the direction of the needle, but it didn't work. Totally I tried two times and both were failed. I was so depressed. This technique is not as easy as I think. Sowhat tried two times on me and he failed either.

The next time, maybe I have to practice on the real patient. How can I not be nervous ?!

Clerk Course Starts

From now on, I formally become a clerk in VGHTPE. I have the staff card and the restaurant card, which means I can go to the staff restaurant for lunch and have 10% off in the Eslite Square.

In these days, in the classroom, I always fell asleep. Maybe it's because I had not got accustomed to the 8-hour-per-day classes. They made me so tired that yesterday I went to bed on 8 p.m. and got up on 6 a.m. this morning. I cannot image the future days. Will I get tired like a dog and lose my temper just like what I thought Kilo was two years ago?

Sigh… Some things need to be experienced before being realized.

07/09 UPDATE: I finally took the picture of my BB call. It is a little out-of-date to use a BB call in the hospital, because PHS may be a more convenient way to communicate. Well, according to this reason, it is worthier of taking a record of it, isn't it?

Restart Stamp Collection

When I was a child, my father tought me how to collect stamps. I liked it very much at that time, and had done it for a period. My collection books are all at home, and I have many stamps in my drawer now. I'd like to rearrange the things in my drawer and put these stamps in a right place. So I used the coupons of Kingstone Bookstore I received several years ago to buy a new stamp collection book. Hmm… It looks great, isn't it?

A Concert I Cannot Attend

This Saturday, there is a Chinese Music concert in Sing-Tian-Gong. Originally, I'd like to attend and I posted a message asking if anybody would like to go together. But something happened. Please forgive me not to tell what it exactly was. I think I can't attend this concert. What a pity. But I think there will be another chance to watch a free concert. It's ok.

Demeanor vs. Contact

During the period of my separation with Kilo, I read many articles about love. There is a good sentence that affact me very much. It says,

"Between a separated couple, the only thing to maintain is DEMEANOR, not CONTACT."

Because the other side knows you very much, maybe knows the most in the world. What you like, the most private of you, etc. You can not become the original status forever. So, maintain only the demeanor, no contact.

Postcard From Chengdu

The postcard from Chengdu had arrived yesterday. It took about 8 days (06/05 – 06/13), more efficient than I thought. Depends on my experience, the letters deliver between Taiwan and mainland China always take 1 month. But this happened about 10 years ago. Maybe because the policy of Mini Three Links, the efficiency of mail delivery has been enhanced?
