Jeff's Stories

<P>&nbsp;</P>

<P>Days and Nights, I have been wasting, for the last days, weeks, months, and perhaps years. I am not happy these days, not happy at all. </P>
<P>In the day, I have to workd, that is for sure. And the job is boring, like most jobs. and I especially dislike it, from the bottom of my heart. I know that what I have been doing is important, and I keep on telling myself of its importance, However, I never seem to have shown any interests in it. I just did it. day after day, for three weeks from now, and I am going to continue doing it the day after tommorrow.</P>
<P>Those who know me well know what I have been doing. Yes, I have been proofreading, all numbers and the Chinese words. They are boring,indeed, at least to me,for I am not a man of numbers. And the computer screen is bad enough to cause my eyes real pains. What's worse, I have to change between paper and screen and the regular movements of my eyeballs can be really harmful. much complaint as I have now, I have to do it, for that is what my job is about....</P>
<P>The fact that my job&nbsp;brings not much excitment&nbsp;does not matter me much...something else about it bothers me more..which I need not mention here and cause any disturbance...</P>
<P>thats about the day and here comes the night.</P>
<P>Nights and dark and darker for me....</P>
<P>Nights are quiet and quieter for me....</P>
<P>Nights are cold and colder for me....</P>
<P>the reason of all this is obvious, I dont want to write it here.</P>
<P>And having to travel about and find shelter is not something very nice for anybody and all I can do is to wish for a better future,..</P>
<P>such is my days and nights and RATHER bad for a "the glass is half empty person like me"</P>
<P>Taking the "half-full" person's points of view,</P>
<P>Things are not that bad after all.</P>
<P>I am not in that bad a situation at all.</P>
<P>.....</P>
<P>Anyway,keep on working hard to make tommorrow better for me, and for others,even for the whole universe(who do I think I am?)</P>
<P>I am hungry now, have to go get some food, or I will SHRINK!!!~~~</P>

That's where I went today. Since I am rather exhausted now, I prefer to have a nice sleep rather than writing more...

On July the First,Beijing Time, Lily and I went to Daxing to celebrate Ruby's birthday. Ruby is my classmate, one year younger than I and will be 23 July 4th. Since we graduated in 2004, she has been working with Foxconn for almost two years. Another friend, Lucia is also working in the same company.

 I arrived at PKU early in the morning. Lily and I had breakfast together before getting the birthday cake at the backer's. NO 732 took us more than two hours to Daxing. It would have taken more if it were a weekday. We arrived at about 11. Before we got off, we already saw Ruby and Lucia waiting at the bus stop, waving to us. We took some nice pictures before we headed Ruby's home.

Daxing is really a beautiful place, much more beautiful and peaceful than in the central of the town. The buildings are not very tall, and the trees are especially green. We chatted, laughed and took many pictures. We had dinner at a Chinese restaurant. The food was capital. I especially enjoyed the spicy food. Thinking of the delicious food makes me water now. After dinner, we window shopped and went back to Ruby's home. On the way, we bought a big watermelon, which cost as little as 3 yuan. It was a real bargain. We spent two or three ours before we ate the birthday cake. We lit the candles, Ruby blew it out while making a wish. .Then she cut the cake and we shared it with eveyrbody present...I also enjoyed the cake, as much as I enjoyed the lunch..

 As I had to go back to school to have supper with some classmates in the graduate school, I had to say goodbye to Ruby's family and Lucia. I was in time for the supper...

---that's how I spent July  1st---

On July 2nd, I went to the Haidian Book City to buy three envoices fortwo classmates and me. We need them to be reimburshed...On my way back, I went to the post office and got the stamps for January to June...

-----that's what happened on July 2nd--

 I had a medical check on July 3r. I translated in the afternoon and evening. Then I felt very tired and did not want to do anything. After a shower, I thought that perhaps I should write something...That's why I am writing here. Before I started blogging, I also read some article in Time. I like all the articles in TIME...

----for July 3rd----

I do not know what will happen tomorrow. What I know for certain is that I should never waste my time. I should do soemthing that makes sense. Graduation Day is drawing near. I have to trsnafer smoothly from campus to society. I hope everything will just work out for me! I will have to try hard, that isfor sure..

ALL for this blog!

I have stayed in this city for almost six years and today I visitd its Tsinghua University for the first time. One of my friends in my former college, who is now a post-graduate in Tsinghua's law school, has recently moved back to the Bejing campus from Shenzhen Campus, so I decided to pay him a visit. We arranged to have dinner together and I arrived at the west gate a little later than I expected. My friend Hansen reveived me at the school gate. He had a bicycle with hi. He explained that the campus is so large that it is quite time-consuming to travel on foot. We got to the dinning center and had a nice yet delicious supper. As it was already past dinner time, there were not many people there. After that, we went to his dorm. It was a five-story building of the old style. It was a little dark and wet inside but satisfying anyway. We chatted and played computer for some time before I took depature. When I arrived at the bus stop, t began to rain. I got back to my school about half an hour late....

That is my first visit to Tsinghua University. It is a little boring.

It feels great to be writing here. I am Jeff, 24, currently living in Beijing. I have had blogs in Chinese language, and this will be my first blog in English.

It is summer in Beijing now, but it is so cool today. There was a shower about an hour ago and the temperature has dropped considerably. I .enjoy rainy days here, for the cool they bring along...

I had dinner with some friends. We dined at the Nine-Headed Eagle restaurant. It's is a restaurant of Hubei cuisines and had its name because Hubei people are often compared to nine-headed eagles, indicating that they are very wise. We ate the delicious food, chatted in cheerful moods and drank a little beer. It felt good to get together...

(Hubei is a province in central China.)

Now I am in my dorm, writing my first blog. I will graduate soon and start to work. I hope everything will be OK for me, and for us. And I will have to remind myself to work hard and never to stop learning...

I have to stop writing now since I still have something else to do now. I wish I could write something here everyday.
