我們都老得太快,卻聰明得太遲

把錢省下來,等待退休後再去享受 結果退休後,因為年紀大,身體差,行動不方便,哪裡也去不成。 錢存下來等養老,結果孩子長大了,要出國留學,要創業做生意,要花錢娶老婆,自己的退休金都被拗走了。當自己有足夠的能力善待自己時,就立刻去做, 老年人有時候是無法做中年人或是青少年人可以做的事,年紀和健康就是一大因素。 小孩子從小就告訴他,養你到高中,大學以後就要自立更生, 要留學,創業,娶老婆,自己想辦法,自己要留多一點錢,不要為了小孩子而活。

我們都老得太快卻聰明得太遲,我的學長去年喪妻。這突如其來的事故,實在叫人難以接受,但是死亡的到來不總是如此。學長說他太太最希望他能送鮮花給他,但是他覺得太浪費,總推說等到下次再買,結果卻是在她死後,用鮮花佈置她的靈堂。 這不是太蠢愚了嗎?!

等到 ....... 、等到 ..... ,似乎我們所有的生命,都用在等待。

「等到我大學畢業以後,我就會如何如何」
「等到我買房子以後!」
「等我最小的孩子結婚之後!」
「等我把這筆生意談成之後!」
「等到我死了以後」

人人都很願意犧牲當下,去換取未知的等待;犧牲今生今世的辛苦錢,去購買後世的安逸。 在台灣只要往有山的道路上走一走,就隨處都可看到「農舍」變「精舍」,山坡地變靈塔,無非也是為了等到死後,能圖個保障,不必再受苦。許多人認為必須等到某時或某事完成之後再採取行動。

明天我就開始運動
明天我就會對他好一點
下星期我們就找時間出去走走
退休後,我們就要好好享受一下

然而,生活總是一直變動,環境總是不可預知,在現實生活中,各種突發狀況總是層出不窮。身為一個醫生,我所見過的死人,比一般人要來得多。這些人早上醒來時,原本預期過的是另一個平凡無奇的日子,沒想到一個意料之外的事;交通意外、腦溢血、心臟病發作等等。剎那間生命的巨輪傾覆離軌,突然闖進一片黑暗之中。 那麼我們要如何面對生命呢?我們毋需等到生活完美無瑕,也毋需等到一切都平穩,想做什麼,現在就可以開始做起。 一個人永遠也無法預料未來,所以不要延緩想過的生活,不要吝於表達心中的話,因為生命只在一瞬間。如果你的妻子想要紅玫瑰,現在就買來送她,不要等到下次。真誠、坦率的告訴她:「我愛妳」、「妳太好了!」這樣的愛語永不嫌多 如果說不出口,就寫張紙條壓在餐桌上:「你真棒!」 或是「我的生命因你而豐富。」不要吝於表達,好好把握。

記住! 給活人送一朵玫瑰,強過給死人送貴重的花圈

每個人的生命都有盡頭,許多人經常在生命即將結束時,才發現自己還有很多事沒有做,有許多話來不及說,這實在是人生最大的遺憾。別讓自己徒留「為時已晚」的空餘恨。

逝者不可追,來者猶未卜,最珍貴、最需要即時掌握的「當下」,往往在這兩者蹉跎間,轉眼錯失。人生短暫飄忽,包得有一首小詩這樣寫: 高天與原地,悠悠人生路; 行行向何方,轉眼即長暮。正是道盡了人生如寄,轉眼即逝的惶恐。有許多事,在你還不懂得珍惜之前已成舊事;有許多人,在你還來不及用心之前已成舊人。遺憾的事一再發生,但過後再追悔早知道如何如何」是沒有用的,「那時候」已經過去,你追念的人也已走過了你的生命。

一句瑞典格言說:「我們老得太快,卻聰明得太遲。」 不管你是否察覺,生命都一直在前進 人生並未售來回票,失去的便永遠不再。將希望寄予「等到方便的時間才享受」 我們不知失去了多少可能的幸福 不要再等待有一天你「可以鬆口氣」,或是「麻煩都過去了」。 生命中大部分的美好事物都是短暫易逝的,享受它們、品嚐它們 ,善待你周圍的每一個人,別把時間浪費在等待所有難題的「完滿結局」上。 找回迷失的生命 死亡也許是免費的 ─ 但是,卻要付出生命的代價。

勸你一句話: 把握當下,莫等待。

室友的喜悦

今天,薇薇签下她人生算是蛮重要的一笔,她找到工作了。真替她高兴。

看她在她的blog里写下几个post的心情,有点羡慕也有点妒嫉。羡慕她找到一份自己满意的工作,妒嫉为什么自己还没有。但是,看了她的心情告白后,让我感染到她的喜悦。我相信我的这一天应该也会很快到来的。继续努力吧。。。

期待着向大家分享喜悦的那一天。

生活的未知数

最近觉得自己的身体不太好,人好像有点热气,要不就头痛肚泻,要不就头晕作呕。(别乱想,不是有喜。)就是觉得自己的健康好像亮黄灯,一个要自己注意平时的生活及饮食的预兆。

可能前几个星期忙于写毕业报告,生活紧张迟睡少运动的不良习惯统统出来了才导致病痛有机可袭。本以为交了报告,这几天好好休息可以补偿回去,原来这题数学我算错了。

刚刚坐巴士回家的途中,突然觉得自己好像一直还在紧张状态中。头一只紧绷着,有时紧绷得让我觉得好像快要爆裂般。紧张的状态让我无法卧床就睡。

问过自己为何报告交了还是如此的紧张。答案是什么,不太清楚。可能就因为太多这些未知数。

不知毕业论文会如何,
不知在大学的最后一次考试会怎样,
不知毕业后的生活会怎么过,
不知毕业后的工作是什么,
不知得到第一份工作会是什么时候,
不知以后长联络的朋友会剩下几个,
不知家人,朋友,生活,事业。。。

一切一切的未知数,让我担心。可能我应该正面的面对它,既然是未知数,又何必为了未知的一切一切影响现在的正常生活呢。

只可惜,在这世界上,讲通常会比做来得容易。

EEE Final Year Students' BIG Day

Today is EEE final year students' BIG BIG day. We need to submit our FYP report to our moderator for grading. All our effort put into the FYP will be graded according to our report, demostration(some might have but not all) and oral presentation.

I have printed out my report at 2pm sth today. It is so fresh and hot. Thanks to Nyok Khiam who helped me to make my graft looks better. 60 pages from cover page till the last page of appendix. I think my report is the least pages report. Hai... what can I do? I really dunno how to add in more things already and a bit lazy somemore. ;p;p

I brought my report to the printing room and wanted to bind it. But, the printing boy told me to collect it an hour later. Oh no... an hour??? ya, it's true. I saw a few stacks of report inside the printing room. Luckily, I still have time. I put my report there for binding and wait at CICS lab. While waiting, I helped Ah Cheong to do his report formatting. Hahaha... He owe me a cup of starbucks coffee. :P:P

An hour later, I went to the printing room to collect my report and straight away chiong to my moderator's room. I passed my report to him and informed him about the change of title. He looked a bit disappointed when I told him that. But, what else can I do? I already changed the title and he already chosed my project. Just pray and hope that he can gao tai gui shou, fang wo yi ma. Hopefully, he wont kill my scores.

Now, the only few things I can do is wait for the demo, study for final exam, prepare for oral presentation and be ready for any job interview. Hope that every tasks I mentioned above can be smooth smooth sharp sharp over.

A 2007 must watch in cinema movie-300

300 poster



Forgive me for spending few hours luxuriously in watching a movie during this stressing period. By the way, this is not the main point of the blog. But please allow me to intro this movie to you.

As mentioned in the title (opps... used to the report writing these few weeks), 300 is really a must watch in cinema movie.

"I have been waiting for a long time to see a good movie and this time has come at last because 300 isn't just a good move it is out breathing, outstanding and everything i can say is little. Firstly I believed that it was just an ordinary Hollywood movie and just like many others It would be good just to pass your time. But I was wrong, because this movie has everything, an excellent story based on the comic 300,fantastic images that travels you in an other world in ancient times, very good cast and a very good music full of emotions." quoted from a website.

I personally like the first wave of the war. The formation of the Spartan is really firm and impressive. (poor english so the adjective not so accurate) With the only 300 warriors, King Leonidas (Gerald Butler) fight with the mens, rhino, elephant and immortal. Cool man.... The scene just before they fight in the shade is really "beautiful".. ;p;p

But, one thing that I learnt from this movie is that the Spartan's shields are really not play play one. No arrows or blades can ever break any of the Spartan's shield. Geng...

FYP final report submission countdown

Few more days before FYP final report submission date, 26th of March.

Although I should think more positively that I can have a big release after the submission, but i felt a bit scared cause I think my report still not ready for submission yet. However, I am very slack to improve it and I dunno how can I improve it. This should be the main reason why I am so slack now.

Hai.......

Due to my backward report writing, I printed out all the reference papers I cited in my report today in IHub. All the printing cost me about S$6-10 I think. But bo bian, I need to know what have I cited in my report. Can't imagine how my face will look like if my moderator ask me something that I cited but I know nothing. An advice to everyone, don't follow my footstep, do not ever do backward report writing unless you have no other choice. ;p

All the best to all final year student.

无题

今天的我,其实不知道自己要写些什么,就知道想找一个可以泄气的角落。

类似的文章已不是第一次出现与我这个小角落。原因是什么?

我想,就因为我这种什么都不知道的态度。

不知道自己是什么;
不知道自己要什么;
不知道自己想什么;
不知道自己会什么;
不知道自己是不是自己。。。

别担心,是写得悲了一点,庆幸的是我知道自己是没事的。

FYP report first draft submission

Finally, I have submitted my first draft of FYP report to my supervisor.

Although this is not the perfect and final one, but at least the born of the first draft is a big release for me. I know there are still a lot to edit and to do, but at least I can have a better rest for tonight after few weeks of late sleep.

I have written a few reports before, but this FYP report is different. After the submission of the reports I wrote in the past, that's it met the end of the story till my results released. I didn't need to really care about how I wrote them and what will the examiner think about my report. But this doesn't apply to FYP report.

After the first draft submission, I still need to edit it for a better one as final report. I need to make sure the report I submitted can prevent me from being asked by moderator some deep deep questions. A demostration is needed to show the moderator what have I actually done for the whole year. Lastly, there is the oral presentation of the project. The most scariest part of the FYP. Some might think that this part just as easy as drinking water, I do hope so.

Actually, this is still not a big problem for final year. The biggest problem is how I want my life to be after graduation. I don't know, I really don't know...

美貌与智慧

今天在午饭后吹水的时候,讨论了一些话题。其中最争议性的是女性的美貌与智慧。

到底女性的美貌与智慧是正比的(proportional)还是对比的(inversely propotional)?

由于我读的是工程系,男生会比较多,所以一直以来和我吹水较多的会是一群男生。而这群男生围绕着的话题里,除了“多打”(dota)吃喝玩乐以外,就是女生。习惯性的,要求高的他们都会经常踩(俗话,意思相等于贬低)样貌或身材不太好的女生。而今天他们就把成绩好的女生和难看画上等号。

友人甲听说有人交了一分十多页的interim report(算蛮多的了)后就一口咬定她是难看的。友人甲不曾看过她,就凭着友人甲的信念--成绩好的女生一定是难看的,就说她一定是难看的。

很快,听久他们经常踩女生的我听不下去,就单刀匹马,一对三地和三个大男人争论了起来。

成绩好的女生就不可以有美的吗?美丽的女生就一定是成绩差的吗?难道参加选美的小姐们都不可以有成绩是一流的吗?

最搞笑的是,友人甲给了一个列子。他的中学里年年考第一的是个美女,但因结识男友之后乎列了成绩,只能考获第三第四名。第三第四名不算聪明吗?难到他的学校就只有五六名学生吗?

争论维持了长逾半个小时,不论友人如何为自己的论点解释和辩护,就是无法接受他们所谓的论点--成绩好的女生一定是难看的。

只能接受成绩较差的学生多半比较会打扮,只是较会打扮也还不代表一定会打扮得好看。而打扮得好看又不一定就是美。而且,成绩较差的学生多半比较会打扮这个唯一能够达到的共识也不只是女生,男生也一样。

所以,男生们请尊重自己也尊重他人,在给与这类的意见时,请不要性别歧视。
