要吃Melatonin(褪黑激素)
不能再這樣每天都天亮才睡
熬過20小時，應該可以順利調回來
我也要來寫日記了。

Simple together
you've been my golden best friend
now with post-demise at hand
I can't go to you for consolation
cause we're off limits during this transition
this grief overwhelms me
it burns in my stomach
and i can't stop bumping into things
i thought we'd be simple together
i thought we'd be happy together
thought we'd be limitless together
i thought we'd be precious together
but i was sadly mistaken
you've been my soulmate and then some
i remembered you the moment i met you
with you i knew god's face was handsome
with you i saw fun and expansion
this loss is numbing me
it pierces my chest
and i can't stop dropping everything
i thought we'd be sexy together
thought we'd be evolving together
i thought we'd have children together
i thought we'd be family together
but i was sadly mistaken
if i had a bill for all the philosophies i shared
if i had a penny for all the possibilities i presented
if i had a dime for every hand thrown up in the air
my wealth would render this no less severe
i thought we'd be genius together
i thought we'd be healing together
i thought we'd be growing together
thought we'd be adventurous togehter
but i was sadly mistaken
thought we'd be exploring together
thought we'd be inspired together
i thought we'd be flying together
thought we'd be on fire together
but i was sadly mistaken...

What is Procrastination?
Procrastionators are people who put off what's in their best interest to complete.
If you "waste time" by watching TV, playing on the NET, talking on the phone, or hanging
out with friends, instead of finishing your school homework, you're among the more
than 50% of students who procrastinate in their school years.
People who put things off may have one or more of theres traits. They may lack a

The Curriculum
By Mitch Albom
The last class of my old professor's life took place once a week in his house, by
a window in the study where he could watch a small hibiscus plant shed its pink leaves.
The class met on Tuesday. It began after breakfast. The subjects was The Meaning of
Life. It was taught from experience.

Farewell Address
I want to say something to you today which I feel would not be apporpriate to sayat tomorrow's
dinner that you are going to give in honor of us teachers. Today's words are not congratulatory, but words
of advice and warning.
The time has come for me to retire, not only because I have come to the age of retirement, but also,
after forty-five years of teaching, I am physically, mentally, spiritually exhausted. You are probably the last class I shall ever teach. My hopes for you are high, and it is my fervent prayer you will not disappoint me. During the past years, I have been deeply unhappy tp see many students forget the warmth and enthusiasm
of their student days only a few years after leaving school. They have become immersed in the sloughs of society and have lost the values and ideals of their youth. What has done this? The pursuit of money and power which has taken hold of their minds and souls.
Truly, money is important, but it does not deserve to be prusued with the best of your abilities.
From the history of mankind, we well know that selfish wealth is something which ruins all that is good and beautiful in life. The pursuit of money for yourself will never satisfy you. The more you get, the more you
will want, you will never get enough, and you won't stop pursuing money to the day you draw you last breath.
Experience has taught me that money brings vice and bitterness, not contentment and happiness.
Take myself for instance, I was born in a rich family, and when I grew up, I married into an even richer family. But, unfortunately, it was wealth that divided my family and lengthened the distance between me and those
near and dear to me. Money deprived me of all the happiness in my life. Money brought me nothing but sorrow and bitter regrets. That is why I hope not one of you will become a millionary, and lose the true blessing of life, for money can easily bring you misfortune.
Money is usually accompanied by power and can buy power. Power is often a great temptation to
young people. Perhaps you are still too young to realize how terrible power is. I have seen many promising youths who sought power and were destroyed by power.
It is my hope that each one of you will carry out his own responsibilities and the obligations of his own
work to the best of his abilities. Our nation is going through a life-and-death struggle; it is the duty of each
one of us to do the work best fitted for us, and do it to the utmost of our ability. Each one of you must do
your very best for our country and our people. There is an old proverb which says, "A great river is made up
of myriads of drops of water." Each one of you is like a drop of water. Alone you are nothing, together you
can form a mighty body of water that will be strong enough to turn the wheels of time and circumstances.
Like young birds, you are soon to leave this nest and fly alone. My hope is that you will not fly too dangerously high, but will fly smoothly and safely through all the storms of life.
The last point I wish to impress upon you is :Never depend upon anyone but yourself. Never be lax or careless because you have kind parents, loving friends or powerful relatives to depend upon. Experience
has taught me that all these will pass away. In this world of change and uncertainty, what have you to
depend on? Nothing, nothing but yourself. You must have strong confidence in yourself, bred from
what you have studied and from the experiences gained from you teachers. No one can be by background
and influential relatives and friends, they cannot add to or detract from what is truly you. Drink always from
the fountain of knowledge, and never be afraid to learn.
Remember that all love is sacrifice. Your life is not your own, but belongs to your country. If you
love your country, you must devote yourself to it.
Again I repeat, never rely upon anyone for anything. Remember "God helps those who help themselves!" You are the masters of your fate. It is a poor excuse to say that Fate is your master.
My sight becomes more and more blurred as I go farther and farther away from the center of this world,
but you are now approaching that which I am now leaving. I do not feel downhearted or unhappy, for what
is taking place is a law of great, mysterious nature. There is always some life growing old and fading away
while new life is coming into being and growing and becoming stronger and stronger.
I have no gift to give you for your graduation. But my little store of knowledge and experience I now
pass on to you. There is one parting thought I wish to leave with you: Wherever you go, and whatever you
do, act as a true Chinese should, and be very proud of being a Chinese. Being a Chinese and acting as
a true Chinese have been the mainsprings of my life.
I am proud, not of my meager knowledge, but of the chance that I have had to pass it on, small as it is,
to you, the younger generation. Please make the best use of what I have taught you. I desire that you
shoule devote all your knowledge and ability to your country throughout your lives.
Maybe we shall never meet again in the future, but even so, let whatever I have given you during your
school years be used by you in your lives, and this we will never be parted. A part of me will always be
with you and the generations that follow you.

So there's this man with a parrot. And his parrot swears like a sailor. He can
swear for five minutes straight without repeating himself. The trouble is that the
guy who owns the parrot is a quiet, conservative type, and this bird's foul mouth is
driving him crazy. One day, it gets to be too much, so the guy grabs the bird by the
throat, shakes him really hard, and yells, "Quit it!" But this just makes the bird
swear for five minutes straight without repeating himself. The trouble is that the
