I haven't been touching my blog for a long while not because I didn't have things to write, but there are so many things that i don't know where to start. I am very happy with my Mac. It's white, pretty, fancy and fast. There was once I used my dirty marker hands touching it right after my teaching, and it thus got several dark spots on its face. I am thinking of ways of removing them and I know I can't bear it if i don't change it back. I became so lazy after back from Maryland, in terms of hating traveling and commuting lately. Washington state is really different from elsewhere. There are 90% americans here while in DC area I can say 50% would be the most. Sometime I feel like I got used to the life in DC more easily because I considered it was more in reality for me, and it's more like China. I can't really tell people what I learned most in the summer. But I will say i learned more than the past 3 years and I can make an actual list to prove my words. Right now, I realize I have so many things I can do and I want to do that I can't waste my time anymore. Research, that's part of life, no doubt. Teaching, that's what I'm making a living on, lots fun as well. Helping people, I am always trying to. I will find out how far I can reach in 2 more years of school :)
