Triumph

I am so exhausted. Since I had to turn a paper in today, I worked on it till 3AM in the morning. And I must get up at 8 to keep a appointment. I tried my best to keep myself away from sleep during classes today. What is more, I cannot go to bed early tonight either because of Rockets' game. Fortunately, Rockets won the first 2 games of the series and have a bright future.

Even though T-Mac scored 31 points which is the highest score in Rockets, in my opinion, he played not well really. He shot 29 times tonight and only made 9 times. As a leader, he was not good enough to bring his team to triumph. Yao Ming did average job tonight, not amazing but good. He contributed 27 points and 9 rebounds to his team.

Overall, Rockets did a good job in both of the two home games. Now, they keep a big advantage and will face Utah's challenge in Salt Lakes later this week. God bless Rockets.

a century

I just feel that I have not blogged for almost a whole centery. Not only because I was so busy last week, and my computer was infested by virus as well. I spent a whole afternoon to format my harddisk and reinstall my system and programs. This time, I have to make a backup in case it will broken down again.

Bad news, there was a horrible shooting in a university of Virginia. 33 people including criminal were killed. It is just a horror and I can not believe a lunatic guy came into a campus with a gun and shot innocent students. Is there any guards in that school? Why did it take such a long time for the cops arrive there ? This is quite unbelievable, and my grandma just called earlier today to tell me to keep safe. I told her not to worry about me because my school is very safe. In fact, I am not sure about it.

Will Smith

Will Smith is one of my favorite actors in Hollywood. In my opinion, he is not only a charming guy but also a skillful actor. He even got a very high score in SAT and he surprisingly denied the scholarship from M.I.T.

His first movie that I saw was Independent Day. It was a fabulous movie and I can still remember every detail of it. From then on, I remembered him. After that, he acted in many famous films such as "Man in Black I&II", "Wild Wild West", and "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air." Recently, he and his little son was starred in "The Pursuit of Happiness" I really like that movie. It tells a story about a broke man who struggled with constant troubles made his life successful. It is inspired by a true life of Christopher Gardner. I can not imagine one can get success under such a harsh circumstance. And Will played the character very well.

My Rocket

My Rocket just was beated by Utah Jazz at home. Rocket played very well until the 4th quarter. They always could not have a good end. Yao had a big night with 35 points, 15 rebounds and 4 blocks. However, this effort can not rescue his team. They lost an important game and they probably lost the home advantage in the upcoming playoff.

I am quite worring about Beijing now. From news, I knew that a serious sandstorm attacked Beijing recently. Although the government is investing a lot of money to improve the environment around Beijing, it is still not changing fast enough. It will be an embarrassing thing that a sandstorm is attacking Beijing when the Olympics is holding there. There is only one year left to change the invironment.

Long Island

Long Island is my favourate place in the U.S. I visited there the second day I came to this country. A couple who are my parents' friends invited us to their house. It was a nice and attractive place. In that city, every house has a large backyard which is 2-5 acres. The environment there is very nice as well. A beautiful beach is right besides their house and even a part of natural forest is in that neighborhood.

I went there with my parents last Sunday. We wanted to buy a new car from a LEXUS dealer there. Our current car is a Honda 2004 Accord which I don't like that much. Acctually, I prefer SAV to Sadens. There was a 2005 Lexus RX330 SAV which we all like. Then we reach the agreement to byu it and trade in our old one. Even though I didn't like our current car, I kind of felt sad when we sold it. The new car will not be available until this Thursday. I am very looking forward to drive it.

Appointment

I saw my advisor this Friday and talked about my courses in summer. It turned out to only 12 credits in summer semesters. But it is fine, I can still get more than a month to enjoy my summer vacation. My advisor suggested an advanced Theology class for me in fall, but I refused without thought. I am really sick of it. Then he told me that I have to take 9 Theology credits before my graduation. Oh my God, what am I gonna do? Even though I don't believe in God and Jesus, at least I respect the Christians and Catholics. However I am not sure that I can still be cool with them after the religion drives me crazy.

In that afternoon, I finally have the opportunity for playing pool again after 3 months. It was in a bar of Orlando downtown the last time I played it. I used to learn playing pool from my father when I was only 8. I can still remember there was a wonderful pool table in our Czech house. And I practised everyday after school. After I went back to China, I only got several chances to play it, and most of my friends did not play it well. But some of my friends here play really good. Finally I get some friends who have the same hobby with me.

Little Things

My sleep did bother me a lot. I had more than 9 hours sleep everyday lately. Although I didn't feel exhausted at all before I went ot bed, I just could not wake up on time. Due to this, I decided to make a alarm clock myself. I had 3 clocks before, but all of them were broke by myself when it was alarming. I admit that I have a bad temper when my fast sleep was suddenly interrupted by something. Therefore, none of the 3 clocks can survive for more than a month.

But this time, I dicide to make my laptop to be my alarm clock. It is too expensive so I don't dare to treat it the way that I treat to my former clock. I usually keep my computer on day and night to download movies and PC games. So I can make a schedule task on my computer to turn on my music player program when I want to be waked up. And it worked this morning. I was waked up by my favorate music and I can even change the music everyday. I think I can have a good start everyday from now on.

It is cool, isn't it?
