行动 > 言语

用行动，而不是言语，去表达自己的能力足够做好当前的工作。不要用言语去争取机会和升级，行动会被看的清清楚楚的。

任何时候都要谦虚，只说最必要的话。这是在讨论问题和接受表扬的时候都会必须应用的。

首先努力做到了解和融入

如题。低调，努力，主动了解和融入，接受多于质疑。这些是第一个月应该用心做的事情。

乐观、主动、心态轻松的人能给所有人带来快乐。

your own reputation and your own word should be important to you

一个不算朋友的朋友写给我的：your own reputation and your own word should be important to you

一句或许在飞机上闲时随意识流写出来的话，觉得很有道理很important，让我回味好久好久。。。

宝宝

有了宝宝真幸福啊！哦，不是我有了宝宝，是为在New York的杨杨的幸福生活开心不已。

看她女儿细美的博客：http://blog.sina.com.cn/u/2757840862，多么漂亮伶俐的一个小姑娘，长大一定很有才 :-*

做research的目的是什么

选择做research就是要让它为自己创造财富，而不是在它上面又花时间又让自己痛苦。

阴沉沉的周末终于过完了，一个总结：research应该是在无压力的情况下作为兴趣来做。

我一直认为research是个很好的东西，可以主动的学习很多深奥的东西，还可以不经意的为社会创造价值。但是如果不是作为兴趣来做就做的不真实，而且会郁闷和痛苦。

我一心想把它当做兴趣，可是它总是让我郁闷和痛苦。。。所以没选择读博士是今生最明智之举。

明天见老板，不知道他脸色如何，要表现的真诚一点把前因后果讲明白还要注重共同利益。。。

Eating early breakfast starts a good day

Getting up early, having sour mustard + spring bamboo shoots steamed dumpling (包子) as breakfast is a good start of the whole day.

Hadoop HDFS hw should be taken seriously. It is possible that one day in the near future it will help me to get a high pay job, and then I can live rich girl life in a sunny place ^_^.

Java, MapReduce and Distributed File System are all cool to study! They all should be added into my daily practice calender!

BigData/MapReduce Software Engineer should be an interesting role~~

RP守恒定理

杨煜常常提到RP守恒定理，用古老的一句话解释就是：出来混迟早都是要还的

总是对朋友说，在一个新的环境里一定要主动对人好才能广结人缘，因为你最新，没有人会主动对你好，除非你有些不同寻常的特别吸引人的东西

所有人无论他或她声称自己是否实际其实都是很实际的，所以会有不变的规律，当你变得更强帮你的人就越多你身边的人就越多，当你什么都没有就没有人帮你围绕着你除了你的家人或者是同情你的人

所有人骨子里都是想要最好的东西，嘴巴里说不想要其实是因为自身条件或能力不够得不到。所以大部分的女人会喜欢两种比较极端的男人：要么是成功有钱器宇轩昂型、要么是单纯安静校园民谣型

昨天在电话里诚恳的叮嘱朋友，任何吸引她的男人身上的东西都是不能维持感情长治久安的，比如说帅气、聪明、才华、幽默、富有等。真的能保障一份长久幸福的感情的，最重要的只有三点：互相信任、相同的价值观、互补的性格。电话说的很快，留给她用未来的生活去回味

“Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain’t all sunshine and rainbows. It’s a very mean and nasty place, and I don’t care how tough you are, it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is going to hit as hard as life. But it ain’t about how hard you hit. It’s about how hard you can get hit and keep movin’ forward. How much you can take, and keep movin’ forward. That’s how winnin’ is done.”

Really like one friend’s Facebook sharing: If you’ve never failed, you’ve never lived.

(To be continued)

Be a modest prayer

First of all, thank God for protecting my friend and me from being injured in the horrible accident and guiding me to find a bodyshop that can fix my car with reasonable cost. “Be modest and careful, be polite and patient, and don’t waste time” will be my lifelong motto.

I swear, from today 7/10/2011, stop shopping clothes, cosmetics and jewelries until Thanksgiving Day, otherwise, I’m gonna bankrupt for sure.

Money, time and friends are the most important things to be treasured! Without them, I cannot survive myself in this practical world.

Keep in mind, from now on in this life, drive slowly and hit brake heavily when right turn!!!

Another thing to keep in mind, never put red clothe with other ones into laundry machine together!

Be a modest prayer, staying alerted and staying low key should be daily practice. Never lose cool unless you have an intention to make use of your anger.

Austin is a big shell

Cannot install PPstream, so cannot watch 非诚勿扰… Living in Austin without PPstream, there are lots of new things to check out!

Searched online and got address of GoDance studio, then drove there and took Salsa and Bechata courses. $16 per class, $95 per pair of shoes!!! And only ugly ones  left…Bought shoes and took class. Pretty happy and enjoyable with basic steps, inside/outside turns, walk-through, open break, etc. Male partners here are much better than guys in Shanghai, at least they have sense of dancing.

Watched Kongfu Panda 2 3D at Regal Gateway Cinema recommended by GPS. Good movie! Make me proud of being a Chinese. Only the $10+ ticket was not so nice. Because of it, I saved one planned meal at Asian Cafe suggested by Bobby, and believe I will try Ants Climbing a Tree someday in the near future.

Living in a big city can be lonely if knowing nobody and nowhere. People drive aggressively, what you see day in and day out is car, car, car…and buildings, no human bin stop for you unless you violate traffic rule…This is what I did in the beautiful Sunday morning, right turned to a one way 3 lanes road, got beep and yell, my first time catching other people’s attention in this city 😛

People don’t trust people easily, but people want to trust people eagerly. Being a selfish person is easy and can take a bit advantage, but he/she loses everything from the person who he/she takes advantage from at the same time. Don’t be a stupid shallow selfish individual unless you intend to disgust somebody. Be nice and be willing to help is always the key to make friends. Friends are important! Especially when you are alone in a new city.

Austin is a big shell. Shining and pretty. Don’t know yet if it is empty to me.

At least, I have to work really hard to make some deliverable next week, and need to make reservation for driving test. Don’t take risk too often, good luck comes and leaves unpredictably. 居安思危，切记切记！

=暂别*|*感动=

不是我sentimental，是真的这几天每天都有让我很感动的事发生~

不轻易感伤，是大学时代的我。别人年纪越大越不会多愁善感，我年纪越大反而越多生命难以承受的轻。。。

一天前，年轻理性美丽的室友Yu和我坐在College Station的越南面馆吸着Pho饮着美味汤汁，畅谈周遭、人际和下个学期的住房；还是一天前，智商让人艳羡的、目前为止认识的人中身价最高的师兄和我在Texas Roadhouse啃着稍微有点焦和咸的牛排，祝福未来顺利、健康、有钱；两天前，美丽到出名的刚从中国返美的老乡来我家喝已经不带翅膀和腿的鸡汤、吃烤芦笋，互道衷肠；几天前，和开朗漂亮大方的Ying一道逛Mall一道在家看电影吃种类多的应接不暇的零食，眺望下学期、展望看不到头的明天；更早些，在可爱漂亮干练的邻居Jingyi的陪同下，开高速、考驾照、品尝酸酸甜甜入口即化的non-fat icecream，理解生活理解爱情。。。

昨夜打包到2am才睡，今晨7am就爬起来，开了两个多小时高速来到Austin，这个让我此刻有些近情情怯的城市。晚上一个人开去GPS推荐的HEB买食物买家用，回忆着在家附近的HEB购物的情形，一种“少小离乡”的感觉油然而生，12周后就要“老大归”了。

一个人，一间套房，一杯已经冷掉的热牛奶。这个城市像个陌生的带着神秘微笑的绅士，这个城市等待我用今后的12周去探索。
