TI那邊的intern結束了,兩個 Project 都進行地很順利,有 On Schedule
昨天做文件做到四點多才睡...=.=
今天早上又跑去上班,繼續寫文件
剛剛搞資料庫搞到一半對著螢幕打嗑睡...///
今天工程師中午請吃陶板屋,感覺比 NEO19 裡面的那些店好吃而且又沒那麼貴...
跟工程師聊天,越來越覺得他們的生活真的"很健康"
下班去打網球、藍球、劍道,體檢報告幾乎沒有紅字
工讀生的紅字超多...XD
本來計畫暑假要去游泳
結果只去過一次
游完還一直留鼻水瞬殺半包 130 抽的衛生紙
明天還要早起去新竹聽國網盃研習營
下禮拜一開始在內湖那邊當 Full-Time 的 Part-Timer...
大學生活過了一年沒有大學的感覺
還剩一年的大學生活也會這樣過...?

The Kite Runner (追風箏的孩子)
The Kite Runner
Author: Khaled Hosseini
★★★★
For you, a thousand times over.
This book consists of three part. First part is Amir’s childhood and how he grew up with Hassan and how they separated from each other’s life. Second part is Amir and his father’s life in America after Russians invade Afghanistan. Third part, the climax of this book, is that Amir flight back to Afghanistan and adventure to find Hassan’s son, Sohrab, under the Taliban.
1970s Afghanstan is an liberal country. Amir’s father, a successful businessman, who has his own thought, his own philosophy of life. Amir’s father told him once “No matter what the mullah teaches, there is only one sin, only one. And that is theft. Every other sin is a varaition of theft. When you kill a man, you steal a life. You steal his wife’s right to a husband, rob his children of a father. When you tell a lie, you steal someone’s right to the truth. When you cheat, you steal the right to fairness.”
Amir’s father, a respectful man, would rather abandon his status (a respectful rich man in Kubul) to work as an chief of a gas station than accept the relief payment from American government. He’s a courageous, a brave man who dares to risk his life in offending the Russian soldier to save an unknow woman who’s someone’s wife. He’s a severe and witty father, he always tried to grow Amir as an indepent man, he told Amir “What’s going to happen to you, you say? All those years, that’s what I was trying to teach you, how to never have to ask that question.”
Amir met Soraya Taheri, his Swap Meet Princess. After the very first meeting, every night to Amir is yelda, the first night of the month of Jadi, the first night of winter, the starless night tormented lovers kept vigil, enduring the endless dark, waiting for the sun to rise and bring with it their loved one. Soraya is also a witty, courageous and kind Afghanistan woman. Soraya has the courage to tell her past (her past seems unforgivable to common Afghanistan. Soraya has the courage to challenge the racism of her country.
Rahim Khan, Amir’s Baba’s best business friend, a kind man and the man understands Amir most. In the filled with discriminations Afhanistan, Rhim was once falled in love with a Hazara woman, but result in a bad result, and he’s never gotten married. Racial problem is, the Afhanistan can not tolerate to call someone sister after she made them tea for so many years. The only identity they can accept a Hazara is servant. The worthiest to be mentioned is that, Amir, his father, Raim Khan, Soraya can admit Hazara as their friend, their family.
Hassan, a loyal servant to Amir, the best friend to Amir, a Hazara. Hassan and Amir used to always play together, share everything with each other, and Hassan was the most faithful reader to Amir – before the tragic afternoon of the tournament, which Amir earned his father’s approval, and which was to shatter their lives.
Hassan always stands up to agains the children who humiliate Amir, Hassan is always willing to do every thing for Amir, Hassan has told the very sentence to Amir, “For you, a thousand times over”.
But the very afternoon, Hassan need the help from Amir most, Amir shrank back. The cowardice made a tragedy of them. The shrinking resulted in a series of gilties to Admir.
25 years after the very afternoon, Amir return to Afghanistan for redemption.

The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time
The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time
Author: Mark Haddon, HADDON
★★★
This is NOT a detective book, although it begins with a series detetive actions. This book revealed the emotional state of an autistic boy, Christopher. From this book, we can know how the boy started his detective advanture, and how he suffered the disgust and fear of talking to neighborhoods, cops, strangers.
This story begins with a dog being killed, and Christopher started the advanture of finding out the murderer. From a series of interviewing with neighborhoods, he's informed about something about his mother he didn't know. But he didn't believe that, the most believable things hime is come from his father and his teacher.
One day he found out that his mother didn't die, the way his father told him about his mother's disappearance couple years ago. When he found out the cruel thing his father did, he decided to escape, to find his lovely mother and live with her. He went to the train station, and scared by the pessangers and the sound made by the trains when the trains enter the station. On the way he went to London, he always picture a map in his brain with logic, induction, and deduction. He didn't believe his intuition, or he didn't have that.
This is an interesting story, and I have to admit that the boy is kind of similar to me.

颱風天與閃光節
For you, a thousand times over.
上個週末看了三分之一
這個週末的颱風天跟閃光節看了剩下的三分之二
終於把《The Kite Runner》(追風箏的孩子)看完啦…
跳過了很多生字,查了不少單子
花了三天終於看完了這本關於阿富汗
蘇聯入侵前的和平、繁榮、思想開明的阿富汗
塔利班上台前的阿富汗
關於親情、友情、愛情
關於主樸關係、種族、恐懼、懦弱、犧牲、贖罪的小說…
真慶幸我沒有因為作者對細節巨細靡遺的描述跟前幾章的生字量放棄繼續讀下去
不然就讀不到這本書的精采與高潮,以及作者設計伏筆的用心
對於平凡人(正常人)的懦弱、貪生怕死、害怕受傷害的細節很寫實
Amir真是接近平凡人...
偷閒了一個週末
明天又要開始忙碌…
有空也許會再來多補一些關於 The Kite Runner...

太快了
一切都發生地這麼突然
內湖那邊...
下禮拜要跟老闆還有另一個工讀生去見客戶
要去他們的工廠看看,實際去了解他們要什麼樣的物流系統
九月份可能還要去大陸一趟...(我要去辦個台胞證?)
九月開始一個禮拜在那邊五天班(Full Time)
要跟那位很強的工讀生一起合作那個案子,用AJAX...
(Great, I have totally no idea about Ajax...>//<)
七八月份一個禮拜只去內湖那邊一~兩次
都在搞FreeBSD Server...
九月份開始...在那邊除了Admin之外也要開始Coding了
TI這邊也快結束了
現在這個Project,應該只需要再一個工作天可以完成
還有一個禮拜多的工作天可測試、寫文件、加功能...^^
另一個網路象棋的案子也要上線讓大家測試了
但是還有兩個東西有點Delay...囧
又過了兩個禮拜
專題跟國網盃的比賽...完全沒進展....>>囧<<
