2008邁向2009，時間的轉移，總是如此，總是那麼一個字"漸"，卻又在12月最後一天，乾淨俐落地把2008甩在後頭了。
而我呢，對於新年的感覺只有，我又快回Baltimore了。
不過幸好，我還有滿滿的友情。今晚覺得已經開始想念了。(雖然我在小巴，也有一個自給自足、營運得當的小城堡) 我卻已經可以預見前往美國的早晨的情境。
想到有遠遠地跑來 百忙中抽空 願意撥出時間來陪我吃早餐 走走路 聊個天 的好朋友，我覺得真想給每個人一個大擁抱。說到擁抱想起王小棣的擁抱大白熊，又想到最近看的魔法阿媽，還有當紅的波麗士大人。低著頭，想。這兩天見的人，我都有太多不捨得。但是很快地，在不同的時與地，大家都會健康的走向前。
和我媽咪逛街買了秀氣的鞋子，很高興買到軟軟質料的鞋。然後去吃飯，阿姨以填滿各式各樣華麗食物作為疼我的方式，哈! 難得弟也有空可以一起吃晚餐。離開台灣一年多，我把家庭聚會的機會一次彌補。
然後說說吳婷琦好了，晚上我去她家給她看。 哈我們的家很近。
我們一起處理花椰菜的皮，小學生扮家酒一樣用漂亮的杯盤喝咖啡。看見我們一起買的那件大衣，有漂亮的扣盤、東歐的花紋與暖呼呼的襯裡。我想我會一直需要你鼓舞的力量。
這次回Baltimore，規則是不准憂鬱!

牧羊
我並不需要依靠我的過去或財富而活著。我只關心現在。
如果你活在當下這一刻，你就會活得很快樂。你就能夠看清沙漠裡永遠有生命，天上永遠有星星，而那些部落之所以會戰爭只不過因為那就是生命當中的一部分。生命對你來說將會是一場饗宴，一個盛大的慶典，因為生命就在我們活著的每一個當下。
魔鬼不是喝進人們嘴巴裡的東西，而是從人們嘴巴裡說出來的東西。

Good words to remember -- 老酒放新壺
對他人給予的協助，不只時時心存感恩，更要適時的、真心誠懇、勇敢的對他人表達感謝
，對爸爸、媽媽及親友更該如此，絕不可以視為理所當然(don’t take anything/anyone for granted)。舉例來說，姑姑及姑丈之前給了你一些建議（例如護照Lung->Long、學校申請作業），也很關心你的進度，如果你能及時向他們略述你的後續處置，並表達你的感謝（不一定要寫出一篇感謝狀，而是幾句溫馨、調皮的感謝亦可）。這是很貼心的, 也可以讓他們感受你的在乎、 對他們的尊重。亦或見面時，你可以大方擁抱他們。不要覺得噁心或害羞，擁抱是很溫馨、很令人溫暖的。對別人的感激，不要藏在心裡，要說出來，或寫出來 ─ 這可減少生命中的遺憾。就拿我來說，我多想再對我的advisor表達我由衷的感謝，但這再也不可能， 因為他幾年前心臟麻痺，就突然間走了！

Tokyo!
I am in Tokyo. :p
My flight from Dallas to Tokyo NRT airport was delayed for more than two hours. I cannot catch my flight to Taipei ... I am now staying in "hotel nikko narita" under American Airline's arrangement. I have to say : It is a pretty fancy hotel. I also got free dinner and breakfast. :*)
However, I cannot go anywhere. It's too late. :( I wish my first trip in Tokyo is not under this kind of circumstances. I want to be more dressed up and go site seeing and shop.
Nevermind. :p

Partying 08'12/12
It's the end of the year, and IT'S PARTY TIME!
We just had our LAB party at Natalia's place. It is my fourth time, and I actually feel good. :*) I remember that I wasn't very comfortable hanging out and talking to people at my first time.
I felt warm and taken care of. I had good food, but I deserved it because I also took my efforts cooking. I made Pork Ribs and Shanghai-Style Bakchoy. In the concern of it might be too salty, I also prepared vegi-rice. (Oh how considerate I am!) I also liked so much the grilled eggplant-tomato-green-pepper plate made by Laura (Slava's wife). It taste great! :p And I like Yuxuan's pumpkin bread. I was amazed because I don't know anything about baking ... and dessert.
I guess I am good at drinking in general. Although I've been really taken my control for the past one year. I only drank three glasses today: red wine, Martini, and hot wine. (Austrian-style; by Lukas) I don't know if it's the effects of alcohol, but I was in a better mood and really enjoyed the party -- I like to see everyone got red and became very talkative, passionate and different. :p
It's great to meet people from all over the world. I met a girl Ar-zu who is also an azerbaijan. She studied in Finland. Surprisingly there were at least two Taiwanese, although they are American-Taiwanese. I learned that the beer sold in Austria came in half-liter, and my friend, Lukas could drink like 8 liters per night. (And didn't get drunk)
Today is also Molly's defense day. She was GOOD! I can't imagine how someone can get so familiar with all the research and be so knowledgeable and confident. :*) Although she was really busy for the past one year, she was extremely nice and warm. She helped me out with my myocyte project: "the Markovian-based SCN5A mutant INa channel"
I'll miss Molly.
I remembered every smiles and hugs received at the party. I remembered the words and little random talks from people. I guess I just like holiday seasons and party. I also received a big big hug from Natalia, my PI. Although I become really nervous & fearful every time I talked to her ... although I felt bad asking her for recommendation letter"s" ... I feel all her support tonight, :*) which means I shall work harder and be more motivated. I wish I can do so.

龍曄生日快樂
Dear 鼓哥
嗨!生日快樂!雖然遲到了。你生日那天我在實驗室要present，隔天要交一個大的project。沒辦法給你即時的祝福。17歲的你，我卻不知道你現在的樣子，是胖了還是瘦了?臉上是不是還長青春痘?不能參予你的高中生活，給你加油打氣。但是我在一個很遠的地方也和你一起努力著呢。
上次打電話的時候，我說室友為了歡迎她哥哥來訪，做了滿桌子的好菜。那你也要不要做菜給我吃?你真是可愛，竟然當場愣住，我猜想你是在想要怎麼辦。這年頭像你這樣忠厚的高中男生真是少見，一般人一定頂嘴說，為什麼不是你做給我吃?
來美國，我來到一個很優雅美麗的學校，在生物醫學方面，非常厲害。學校雖小，來來往往的同學都非常認真，因為以後想當醫學生。星期日的圖書館總是擠的滿滿的。比我在台大唸書還要用功的環境。這個城市是秋天會紅葉子的，十二月初的時節，外面的空氣已經凍壞了。
星期六的早晨，我喜歡走到Waverly的Farmer's Market買一種外皮花花的蘋果，又脆又甜。放學回家如果沒事就慢慢的做菜，或是吃室友或對門室友做的菜。:p然後看一個叫做House的影集，是一個能解決各種各樣怪病的醫生，Hugh Laury飾演的，越看越是有一種充滿智慧的帥氣。
這學期的我可說是混的要命，除了修了一門課，只有四個學生跟兩個教授大眼瞪小眼，其他事情都做的慢吞吞的，上課的時候，我的Reading assignment都胡亂唸過去，討論分享的時候，有時候還吞吞吐吐的，兩位教授卻很仁慈寬和。我想我學會越來越"厚臉皮"與"不要求完美"了。實驗室在模擬一顆電腦的心臟，老闆是一個銳利又漂亮的女生，上次的presentation(就你生日那天)，雖然講的流利，卻一直被老師打斷和扔出問題。我以為是要跟lab介紹我做的研究，所以很詳細的介紹。沒想到老師只關心自己想知道的部份，不希望我做別的背景介紹。不過anyway!在她不間斷的問題攻擊之下，也是刺激我稍微有些成長。想一些新東西。不過，不是很喜歡一直跑模擬，感覺只跟電腦有些互動:p
長大了，就是一直要面對很多難以抉擇的決定，偶爾對自己感到失望。不過有遇到一些困難跟苦惱也未必是件壞事。希望在台北的你，在忙碌的課業之餘，也可以過愉快的生活。多方面的嚐試和改變，更主動追求想要的，交一些好朋友。當然有些事情也許現在不能馬上實現，但是總有一些夢想和目標的生活掛在前方，就等著你走向他。
非常想念你
祝你新的一年 身體健康 學業順利
