4/14/2008 Olympic Torch Relay 20083/22/2008 又回Loughborough!借着LAPC 2008的机会,又去了一趟Loughborough,记得上次去那里是2006年的12月,参加了ZJ同志的毕业典礼,上次的印象还蛮不错,和Mike一伙人走走逛逛也挺有趣儿。这次便无聊了。整天关在一个Conference Centre里面听各种各样的Invited session,还号称是4星级的宾馆,怎么连牙刷,牙膏都不提供啊?
另外一个不解的事情是,好不容易等到会开完了,琢磨着去Town centre里面看看,购购物啥的,结果不曾料到,刚刚不到下午5点半,所有的商店都基本关完了!我就呐了闷了,你说这些商店都给谁开的啊?
今天是Good Friday,昨天去Nick家吃饭,好在人数不是13个,不然的话可真成“最后的晚餐”了。
再次证实英国人不会做饭,但是甜点还不错。Anyway, Have a nice Easter! 2/25/2008 第二个春节在London我知道这个年已经算是基本过完了,其实早就想写点什么来纪念我第二个在伦敦过的春节,但最近一直都没有时间,总是在忙着各种各样的事情 (哎,读博真的不是我想象的那么简单的啊!
我知道可能还会有第三个,第四个春节在这里过,但是实在不想在这里再多过一个了!
春节的时候,老板还搞了个Party,邀请了他的所有学生以及社会各级人士参加。Party还是不错的,我就是觉得他们家可真远啊,估计他每天花在路上的时间至少要3个小时。真不晓得他老人家天天这么travel累不累。
这几个星期除了忙学习,还抽空搬了一次家,从Barking搬到了Bethnal Green,离学校也近了,不用在给伦敦的公共交通事业捐钱了!重要的一点是感觉是生活在伦敦,因为总算是经常看见白色的人了。
现在必须把这些烦心的事放在一边,因为马上就要交Proposal了,还有那么多的paper和report要读,哎,又怎么可能读完呢~
P.S. 谢谢你,你们的礼物,我会好好珍惜! 12/13/2007 Graduation Ceremony!I thought yesterday was a big day for those of you who did MSc degree at department of Electronic Engineering.
I wanna express my thanks to my parents for their unconditional love and support, although they couldn't make it this time for the sake of time but I believe they will be here when I am going to have another graduation ceremony in the future~
As Yousef said, I just had a graduation ceremony yesterday which means I just graduated and today should be my first day on my PhD study. Well, that's true in the theory but I have already been started for three months.
BTW, thanks should go to Thomas, Temi and Raheel for taking pics for me! 10/6/2007 In Mood of September!九月是一个欢聚与离别的季节。月初,我做完Project,从Harlow回到了London,与Nortel的一帮牛人分开了,也与当时的Flatmate Jana 说再见了。Jana是个很好的女孩,从斯洛伐克来,我在Harlow的时候帮了我很多忙,甚至当我搬家的时候还主动帮我搬东西,另我十分感动,谢谢!
回到学校,幸运的被录取参加学校的International Students Welcome Programme。去Heathrow接新生和参加一些Workshop,认识了不少新人,哪个国家的都有,但中国人还是主角阿~ 记得当时去接机,我们安排的Bus一趟趟的往学校拉人,因为中国来的航班一般在晚上,所以被安排在了最后一班bus。其余的几班都是minibus,只有最后一班是个大bus,如此看来中国的市场有多大了吧~
最令我开心的是可以去Newcastle玩儿,正好俺兄弟Wayne在那里,俺俩也没去哪里玩,成天就是变着法儿的吃喝,简直太爽了~ 谢谢你了兄弟!祝你和老婆的蜜月一切顺利!
另外一件匪夷所思的事情是,我的一个发小,失去多年的联系,居然我们可以在伦敦再次碰面!这简直太神奇了!孙蒙同志此次来英工作并携新婚夫人(好幸福啊~
最近又得之几个好友结婚的消息,不知怎的,除了高兴之外,还多了一分伤感,也许一个人在外许久,在这个时候也会感到孤单吧~
今天刚刚收到了系里面的邮件,最终我拿到了Overall Distinction,算是个好消息,期待十月有更多的好消息等着我~
BTW, I am on the QMUL official website
6/6/2007 Project Proposal!The aim of this project is to develop and implement a novel polarisation conversion model which can......
5/29/2007 100 Anniversary!5/21/2007 Bye EXAMS!I went back to my room, also took a pic in front of my "post wall". I looked sort of tired.
But I'd better take this advice, because I am going to do something really new and advanced project. It's a big challenge for me and I said to myself as well as Prof. Chen, "I will and I can take this challenge!"
Here comes the summer in London, but I will not be in London over the summer...... 3/29/2007 The Second Term is Over!The second term is over, that is to say, I already finished all my MSc courses!
For now, everything seems to be done. I submitted paper on time, got a good mark on MCQ and talked with Prof. Chen. So I should take a break, a short break! On Tuesday, with Paul, Claudia, Marta and Victoria we went to Weatherspoon for a drink! We were chatting and learning different languages. They are kind and nice girls but except Paul who is our teacher. 2/20/2007 Happy the Spring Festival (Chinese New Year)!第二天,本来大家说好一起去Chinatown参加parad,结果Jacky,Lin和Jing还是没有抵挡住睡觉的诱惑,错过了这么一个体验拥挤的好机会!
顺便说一句,这几个月都不想再吃饺子了,那天的饺子我想是包多了,我们尝试了各种饺子的吃法,包括:蒸、煎、烤、蒸、炸,就差用微波炉了。
在这里也要给各位兄弟姐妹,父老乡亲拜年了!祝大家猪年吉祥,身体如同“猪”一样健康~哈哈哈。。。女生该疯了~ 1/15/2007 Christmas and New Year Eve!During the Chrismas holidays we were walking around in central London for exploring some nice places. Actually there are! Places are nice but we are tired because we just walk! I have never walked such a long way, it's crazy~
"Boxing Day" is the day after the "Christmas Day". People come out and rush into the store to buy something they wanted. It's so crowded in the street. You can figure it out the same thing in Beijing's shopping mall during the spring festival.
The biggest nights of the year is on New Year's Eve. About 150,000 revellers or more are expected at the London Eye to watch the annual new year's fireworks display. It's a spectacular show! After the firework show, people celebrate the new year. They are dancing, they are singing, they are kissing, even though they are fighting!
Now, the new term has started. I have to go back to study...... 12/21/2006 The First Term Over!终于放假了!
15号,Healthrow Terminal 4, 在苦苦等待2个半小时后,Mike终于到达了London!好兄弟见面自然少不了一阵寒暄,坐在Tube里面,肆无忌惮的一通海聊,旁边的老外自然只有只闻其声,不明其意了~哈哈。。
第二天,俺们去了Madame Tussauds,这个地方挺好玩儿,你可以和各种名人合影,我和“老江”还来了一张!
去了Loughborough,参加了ZJ同志的毕业典礼,恭喜你了!我算是知道了,UK的学校只要不在London,个个是地大物博,院系之间离的巨远无比,你还必须得有车,我说的是4个轮子的,才够方便,TMD~
不写了,累了,洗个澡,好好睡一觉,明天计划一下Christmas的行程安排~ 11/29/2006 Dumpling and Spanish Party!It's the first time we ate the dumpling in the UK, A Spanish Party was held in Stocks court common room on last Saturday. I can not figure out why this party called spanish party. Maybe our "Queen ester of stocks court" is from Spain. I learned some spanish words from her but unfortunately I forgot them all now! 11/6/2006 Guy Fawkes Night!这段时间太忙了,有那么多的paper和programme要写,郁闷的要命!今天总算有时间有理由玩一玩了,因为今天是英国传统的Guy Fawkes Night! What's it? It celebrates the failure of the Gunpowder Plot, in which a group of Catholic conspirators, led by one Robert Catesby, and including Guy Fawkes, attempted to blow up the Houses of Parliament in Westminster on the evening of 5 November 1605, when the Protestant King James I (James VI of Scotland) was within its walls.
The celebrations, which in the United Kingdom take place in towns and villages across the country, involve fireworks displays and the building of bonfires, on which "guys", or dummies, representing Guy Fawkes, the most infamous of the conspirators, are traditionally burnt. Before the fifth, children use the "guys" to beg for money with the chant "Penny for the guy". We were going to Victoria park and seeing the opera of The Emperor and the Tiger. The most important thing is it's free! 在英国,从来没有见过这么多的人聚会,人们从四面八方聚集到Victoria park,里面不仅有焰火,还有嘉年华!你走在大街上,可以看见,听见很多人在放焰火,这种感觉像在北京过春节一样,好玩儿! 我发现英国人很容易激动,看表演的时候,我前面的一个英国女生,看见舞台上面的“Tiger”就不停的喊:“Oh~, tiger~! It's so big! I love it~! I love it~~~!” It's crazy! 在一片欢呼和掌声中,焰火表演结束了,就这样,上百万的英镑被烧光了~ Next week is our reading week, maybe we can have a relatively easy week~ 10/7/2006 留英回忆录(2)2006年9月9号晚7点左右
2006年9月10号
早上7点钟便醒了,一看时间尚早,躺到8点钟,将Vincent叫醒,等Yuning过来接我去Victoria coach station, 9/29/2006 留英回忆录(1)抵达英国伦敦已经接近20天了,日子算是刚刚安顿下来,这个星期开始上课了,又回到了阔别已久的学生时代,感觉不错~ 2006年9月9号
在北京首都机场与家人告别后入了关,赶紧去排队办理托运行李,队列还是挺长的,大概等了1个多小时,和高阿姨一起托运的行李,两个人加起来一共可以带75公斤!哈哈。。
9/17/2006 The End! The END
It is time for me to go, mother; I am going.
When in the paling darkness of the lonely dawn you stretch out your arms for your baby in the bed, I shall say, "Baby is not there!" ----- mother, I am going. I shall become a delicate draught of air and caress you; and I shall be ripples in the water when you bathe, and kiss you and kiss you again. In the gusty night when the rain patters on the leaves you will hear my
whisper in your bed, and my laughter will flash with the lightning through the open window into your room. If you lie awake, thinking of your baby till late into the night,
I shall sing to you from the stars, "Sleep! mother, sleep." On the straying moonbeams I shall steal over your bed, and lie upon your bosom while you sleep. I shall become a dream, and through the little opening of your eyelids I shall slip into the depths of your sleep; and when you wake up and look round startled, like a twinkling firely I shall flit out into the darkness. When, on the great festival of puja, the neighbours' children come
and play about the house. I shall melt into the music of the flute and throb in your heart all day. Dear auntie will come with puja-presents and will ask, "Where is air baby, sister?" Mother, you will tell her softly, "He is in the pupils of my eyes, he is in my boby and in my soul." 结束
是我离开的时候了,妈妈,我走了。
当清晨孤寂的破晓时分,你在幽暗中伸出双臂,想抱起你睡在床上的孩子时, 我会说:“孩子不在那里了!”-----妈妈,我走了。 我将化为一缕清风爱抚着你; 我将化为串串涟漪, 当你沐浴时,一次次地吻着你。 当刮风的夜里,当雨点在树叶上嘀嗒作响时,
你在床上将听到我的私语,当电光火石从开着的窗口闪进你的屋里时, 我的笑声也随之一起闪现。 如果你清醒地躺在床上,在深夜仍想着你的孩子,
我将在星空对你吟唱:“睡吧!妈妈,睡吧。” 乘着四处游移的月光,我悄悄地来到你床上,趁你睡着时,躺在你怀里。 我将变成一个梦,从你眼皮的微缝中,滑入你的睡眠深处;当你醒来, 惊奇地张望时,我就像一只熠熠闪光的萤火虫,向黑暗中飞去了。 普耶节时,当邻居的孩子们来屋里玩时,
我将融合在笛声里,终日荡漾在你心头。 亲爱的阿姨带了节日礼物来, 她会问着:“我们的孩子在哪里,姐姐?” 妈妈,你要温柔的告诉她: "他此刻在我的眼眸里,在我的身体里,在我的灵魂里。” 谨以此文献给我的家人,我的朋友们,虽然我不在你们身边,但心与你们同在!
Frankie in London now! 9/5/2006 Tourism in Hangzhou!此次杭州游览了“西湖十景”-- 苏堤春晓 · 曲苑风荷 · 平湖秋月 · 断桥残雪 · 花港观鱼 · 柳浪闻莺 · 三潭印月 · 双峰插云 · 南屏晚钟 · 雷峰夕照。个人比较偏爱“花港观鱼”及“三潭印月”为什么呢?前者看的比较实在,那么多的鱼在那里游,看得过瘾;后者感觉很神秘,尽管它的用处是那么的简单。
此次的一个遗憾是没有去成千岛湖,不过去了一趟绍兴,瞻仰了一下树人兄,去咸亨酒店喝了杯小酒,吃了吃茴香豆,就算弥补了吧~
杭州是个好地方,好山,好水,好人!感谢这几天陪我玩耍的Wayne,为了我,他连班都不上了,感动的痛哭流涕~
10th,Dec is a big day for Wayne and Taotao, it's a pity that I can not be with you but I will around you and wish you in my heart! Best wishes to you in advance!
