Very Good = Very Cold


Today's weather was very good, and was good to go around as well. Therefore, Wakko and I went to Queens Center. Unexpectedly, there were lots of people, maybe because of the holiday. If I don't tell you, you will never know how cold it was today. Let me show you the temperature status.
Yes! 0 degree centigrade! In the weather like I had today, the sun is just a decoration.

Centennial Anniversary of Pace University


I feel I am very lucky because I witnessed the centennial anniversary of Times Square, and now I'm gonna vitness the centennial anniversary of Pace University. I don't know when I will encounter the next centennial anniversary event. Do you have any experience similiar to mine? Share it with me~~

Kissena Park


Let me introduce Kissena Park, where one minute far by feet from my home, to you. This is a New York City park, as you may recall, some of the photos on my site are Kissena Park. I wonder whether you can distinguish or not. I went to take some pictures when the weather was fine. There are more pictures available on the photo site. Take a look now ~

Pace University


I always feel troublesome to take my camera to school because I feel so ~~ However, I suppose you want to see how my school is, I hope so. Since I had something needed to do before class, I took my camera to school and shot this picture for you. My school - Pace University! There are more photographs on my photo web site, please take a look when you have time.

積極 與 消極

當夜深人靜時, 你會對即將入眠的自己說什麼呢? "一天過去了, 明天要再加油!" 還是 "才過一天, 時間還很多!" 當你忙碌的時候會覺得時候不夠用, 一定恨不得能把以前浪費掉的時間都拿回來用, 但當那個在浪費時間的你, 又是什麼樣的感覺呢? 浪費時間的定義又是什麼呢? 昨天剛繳了Midterm report, 今天便懶洋洋的, 一點事都不想做, 就這樣子, 渾渾愕愕的過了一天! 現在想想好像很對不起前天的自己, 如此拼命的趕在時間截止之前把Paper送出去, 另一方面, 又覺得自己這麼累, 就是想要休息一下! 這樣子就叫做浪費時間嗎? 這樣子就叫做不積極嗎? 總是被付與期望的我, 感覺很累~~ 即始是做的再好也是被認為是應該的, 若是有點差錯就是不應該~~ 忽然間有感而發, 有時候真的就想這樣子消極下去~~ 什麼都不做~~ 但, 事總是與願違~~ 我只能永遠做那個積極的人~~ 為了明天, 為了這個, 為了那個, 我只能說"一天過去了, 明天要再加油!" 希望你不會像我一樣過的這麼辛苦才好~~

Brooklyn Bridge


I waited almost one hour for taking this picture. Last time when I took this view, I didn't have my tripod. Thus, the picture was not so nice. Today I brought my tripod for taking the night scenery. When I was taking the pictures, a security guard prevented me from using the tripod. I don't know why the tripod is banned. When I tried to shoot a picture of Lincoln Center, I got the same message as well. Maybe they thought my camera was a weapon! Anyway, I took this picture with my tripod when the guard was absent. ^_^Y

Installation Art - LOVE


I ran into this installation last spring. At that time, I didn't have my camera with me, so I couldn't take a picutre. When I planed my weekend schedule, I included it on the list. This picture is really good because no one standing in front of it, but the only fly in the ointment was the litter!

Grand Central Terminal


The busiest terminal in NYC. GCT is like a shopping mall. The wings have restaurants; the lower level has food court, and many stores are around the terminal. The first railroad was founded in 1831, which means this terminal is 175 years old.

Juilliard School


Needless to say, Juilliard School is a famous school in Fine Art. Fine Art! Oh! please don't ask me anything about art. I have no notion of it; I have no talent of it. All I know is that this school is very good in art.

Madison Square Garden


Although New York Knicks have Lerry Brown to be their coach in this season, I can't see any chance for them to go to the final. I was planing to see one game in Madison Square Garden. Nevertheless, the ticket price was too high for me to reach it. I hope they can do well, so I can be proud of them. By the way, I was really sad when Yankees failed to go to the final because Chien-Ming Wang lost his chance to show up in the final. It hardly to believe the most expensive team among the MLB couldn't win the title.

The library of Colombia University


Colombia University is top 10 school in the U.S., and its tuition is also in the top 10, I believe. For real, the architectural style of the bulidings in the university is special. Compare to my university, this is much much better than my building campus. Campus with only buildings is the great disappointment for me, for I like to walk around the campus, not taking the elevators. Of course, other campuses of my school have lawns and beautiful buildings as well. Since I chose to live in the city, I don't have anything to complain. I can see Brooklyn Bridge whenever I go to school, and I think it's good because many of you desire to see it, don't you?

The library of St. John's University


As you can see, St. John's University is a Catholic university. Since I did't have a storm card, studend ID, I was unable to visit the library. However, there are something more interesting than this library. You might check out my photo album website to figure out what I said. You will absolutely be shocked!

The Dormitory of St.John's University


When I visited St. John's University, I felt as if I were in the University of Idaho. This dorm is very like LLC, the dorm of U of I. Even though U of I has nothing except the grassland, I still cherish the memory of living there.

After Midterm

Upset is the word that express my feeling of the midterm. When I handed in my exam book, I thought the exam finished me; not I finished it. Everything I studied, I answered; everything I didn't study, I answered as well, but I didn't know what I was writing. I was really down and disappointed with myself while I was on the way to home. Nevertheless, this evening, when I talked to my classmates, most fellows didn't answer those three questions well. Suddenly I felt a little bit better. However, their answers are better than mine, I think. Whenever I submit my homework, I always expect my the grades appear soon, but I don't want my midterm grade show up on the grade page because I don't think I will get A.

Before Midterm

This September I achieved one of my dreams - American academic life. Tomorrow is my first midterm in American. If I say I am not nervous, I am a liar. However, I have been preparing for it. I believe I can do well on tomorrow's exam. The temperature has been dropping gradually. Leaves also have been changing their colors quitely. Last Saturday when I went shoppoing, I suddenly realized winter is coming. Time flies! It has been one and half month since I came back. I have been plannig to do something, but there is always something out of my order. I believe someday I will succeed!

Tea Time


I'd been working on my assignments for two days before I have time to take afternoon tea. For a person like me, I think nothing is better than having a leisurely break.

Home-made noodles


When I finished cooking, I suddenly felt this noodles was just like the one I could buy in a noodles restaurant. I start wondering I'm a student or a cook. How do you feel about this noodles, give me some comments!

三寶飯


It is a biggest lunch box I've ever seen. Unlike Taiwanese one, there is a lot of meat on the rice. I even could not finish it. I suppose that is because of Americans. For them maybe it's just an OK lunch box, but for me it's awesome!

Mid-Autumn Festival


人在異鄉, 家鄉味是異鄉遊子的我最大的安慰! 在大海另一邊的我不能和大家一起烤肉談天, 真的很遺憾. 這盒Made in U.S.A. 的蛋黃酥雖然貴了點, 但卻是台灣味十足, 讓身在異鄉的我感受到那一絲絲的家鄉味!

破曉


2005.9.6 搭著飛機離開台灣, 朝著一個全新的生活出發了! 並不是第一次飛行了, 所以黎明對於我來說也不是什麼新鮮事, 但在那一瞬間, 這一道銅楬色的光芒帶給我的不只是全新的一天, 也是一個全新的自我! 未來的旅程有什麼樣的難關在等著我, 我又要如何去面對, 在那一剎那, 我知道, 只有全力以赴, 努力追求自己的夢想~ 就在那黎明破曉時~~
