November 18 转时尚芭莎Harper's bazaar主编苏芒——如何打进时尚圈来源： 应届生求职招聘论坛 http://bbs.yingjiesheng.com/
博客里很多很多朋友问我，怎样才能进入时尚圈呢？
我那远在山东的老爸老妈和老姐，也不断打电话推荐朋友的孩子＼亲戚来实习． 连中国那些有名的大人物们，都忽然对我好的不得了，原来，他们的女儿也都热爱这一行，一定让我看看，我能怎么办呢？幸福啊，也有忧虑重重．办公室原本留出的位置，早已在迅速地精英加盟中坐满，新人坐哪里对于我，比找到个大人才还难！哈哈，幸福人的苦恼． ＜丑女贝帝＞看过吗？比穿ＰＲＡＤＡ的恶魔可好看多了，时尚圈又一新作，我们果然站在大众眼前啦！ 在你选择行业之前，请你自问如下问题： １）为什么你要做时尚，爱穿爱看漂亮衣服和时尚杂志可不能成为应试理由！ ２）你有什么与众不同的能力和才华，想法和创意？你比别人多些什么呢？优势？ ３）你是一个坚强内心坚强意志的人吗？你能在亮丽虚荣浮躁的时尚圈，充满激情却甘于永远为别人默默无闻地服务，看着买不起的好东西丝毫没有怨愤，对于客户的指摘＼明星的义气用事＼各种变化和失败，坚强勇敢地面对吗？ ４）你的身体好吗？能够拿不足够多的钱忘我忘情地工作吗？２４小时开机把生活和事业融为一体． 这一切，你可能不一定都具备，但你要准备．今天，不象我入行时那样简单了，你需要一步一步准备好，从小媒体做起或者从小角色做起，我小时也一样．但是，别因为小而不用心，把每一个小照片拍成大片水平，把每一个小信息作成令人眼前一亮的东西．你的作品才是你成功之路上最有利的阶梯． 永远不要忽略时间，我不认为速熟是条好道路．你成功的过快其实不扎实的，可是你要每一天都比别人更努力更拼命另说．
不要等机会来了再写稿子，你可以天天写，直到觉得自己写得比别人好时，再拿给编辑们看．你可以用自己的数码和电脑进行创作，作出自己满意的东西，拿得出手的东西再去应试．我有一个同事从英国留学回来，自己用电脑基本排了一本小杂志给我看才录取的．
另外，请记住，单位是希望你来发挥自己价值的地方，而不是另一个学校，很多应试者说我希望自己来多学习，大多领导是不喜欢的．你要知道，工作之后，学习是一生的快乐，可是总不能先拿着学会再干啊．
我们以前入行是门槛低，很幸运，可是大浪淘沙剩下来的，也确实是一些比较具备以上素质的人．
站得高，看得远，可是对于新人而言，眼高手高而心态放低才更好．加油！

 Photo by ianton October 26 懒 我总是觉得自己很懒，懒到想法很多，行动却很少。计划的事总是无法实现，所以很多时候我都放弃了做计划。可是心有不甘，还是会胡思乱想，比如坐车的时候，除了耳朵塞满音乐，脑袋一刻不闲，用来想象一些曾经发生和未曾发生的。我有收到过一些远在天边的朋友的明信片、问候电话和EMAIL，可是我都懒的及时回复。也想回复来着，可是话到嘴边，却不知怎么表达，虽然大脑离嘴巴只有咫尺，可是把它完整、明确地表达出来对我而言却又是一段长长的距离。其实我也不是不会说，只是我懒。现在和我一起工作的女孩子们，个个都是贤妻良母，女红、打扫、煮饭，十八般武艺样样精通拿手，并且乐在其中，特别喜欢“收做”，把办公室打理的井井有条。我起初十分不屑，因为对我而言乱是一门艺术，我是那个从来不喜欢收拾东西的人，曾经我的办公桌是整个部门最乱的地点（汗！）。然后因为工作需要，我为了表现自己，也跟着她们一起收拾，擦擦扫扫，渐渐发觉凡是雌性动物都有爱整洁和打扫的天性，受到好风气的影响，我现在回家也会自己整理房间，洗洗毛巾之类的，并且今天自己亲手做了蜂蜜柠檬片，明天就可以带到公司和大家一起分享啦，呵呵！原来DIY可以让自己变的勤劳，我要做个勤劳的女人，积极地面对即使看似不顺的生活！ 明天把信给写了吧，虽然没什么excitement可以汇报，可是朋友想听和了解的可能是我的近况，而并非那些有的没的excitement.恩，是这样吧~  photo by Le Niners October 10 在水一方昨天帮忙搬场才发觉自己是一手无缚鸡之力的女青年，并且在抬一张大桌子的桌角时，腰闪了一下。我的娘啊，那个钻心疼，让我差一站不住了。我的小腰啊.555~
有没有人听过BEE GEES的IMMOTALITY? Celion Dion翻唱过，非常好听的一首歌。不过我在网上找来了原版的Bee gees演唱，但是歌声另类之极，不晓得是否我试听的版本走音了还是怎么的，大颤音+太监音 @@
长假期间出来帮Christine拍了一辑糖水照，那天天气不错，很适合街拍。我们选择的地点离家很近，而且环境优雅，少人 ^^ 我带了一个50 1.8的定焦头，首次尝试了逆光拍摄，总体Christine满意。我是觉得糖水照，不管怎么拍都不丑，但是因为是我第一次尝试，没有什么特色。可能技术上在进步中，可是构思和构图还有待提高。对了，我最近自己也想做MT拍一集糖水，用来抓住青春美少女容颜的尾巴！再过些时候，该长皱纹了~ All rights reserved.

October 01 欢沁 最近看芒果台的天天向上介绍第六届桃李杯舞蹈比赛的得奖选手，其中有一位来自青岛的年轻男孩子跳了一支舞，名叫《孔乙己》，给我留下了很深的印象。不光是他跳的impressive，舞编很出彩，最令我不忘的是这只舞的配乐，音乐明快流畅，轻松写意，非常喜欢！不过喜欢完就算了，也没有执着（想来这也是我的一大缺点），直到第二周天天向上又放了这只舞，配乐再度响起令我生了找来这首歌的心。用GOOGLE搜罗来，不过确是一首《绝世小功之年下诱惑》的网络原创歌曲，写的是耽美之情。何谓耽美，大概喜欢日本漫画的男孩女孩烂熟于心，不过像我这样处在日漫盲区的人，又GOOGLE了一番才解各种滋味。网络红歌自然好，但是加入了人声，跟我想找的纯音乐版还有出入。不死心，第二天接着GOO，终于被我找到了原版，出自中国音乐家林海之手的《琵琶相》专辑里的这首“欢沁”。由此曲开，我逐一欣赏了林海的这张《琵琶相》专辑，可谓洋为中用，古为今用。中国民族乐器中揉入西洋乐器的点点，古典曲调套用现代的曲式。之前我也听过一些类似的古今相杂，中西合璧的改良民乐，但总觉混的不够漂亮，但是这张却很喜欢，因为他的融汇并贯通。今日适逢祖国60周岁庆生，所以借用这“欢沁”之名，来祝福伟大中国蒸蒸日上，早日立于世界强国之林！
上海这多雨的秋，实在不爽利。也害我蜗居在家难以出外拍照。但是今天手痒，所以画了个小妆，做了一点自拍，可惜没有喜欢的，皆因对MT的不满意。所以贴一张遮脸的吧，以聊慰一下自恋的心。
 25岁的我September 18 Messy 我发觉自己的记忆力衰退的愈加厉害了，从来我的瞬时记忆就很差，大学期间就是因为背功差一次奖学金都没拿过。。。 现在，更是到了转身就忘的程度。如果一下子把我拽到人堆里，给我同时介绍3个以上的人，我都不会记得谁是谁。我常看着手机里的联络人却无法记起他们的样子，是不是很恐怖？一直以来，我都以为是自己太过忙碌的生活导致了记忆力衰退，昨天看到开心网上的文章说到这种情况其实是电脑辐射引起的，原来一直以为辐射对视力、皮肤有害，没想到我从去年开始的记忆力锐减，罪魁祸首是电脑。想起以前和现在都很喜欢把手机放在电脑旁边，自作孽了。
当我发觉用中文写文章变的没有用英文写流畅时，我很焦虑。因为这就代表着，我的写作退步了，没有人会因为你英文文章的通畅而认为你文笔好，特别是当他们看不懂或看不明白你写的是什么的时候，我知道面对一大堆不是母语的文字时的痛苦，每次在图书馆，当我翻开一本厚厚的原版英文书的时候，我都会逼迫自己读下去，可是每次都坚持不了5分钟就放弃。 英文报纸和杂志会好一些，因为报纸有固定的写作格式，许多特定的词汇每天读都会背，即使背不出也觉得眼熟。杂志更是内容轻松，不会长篇累牍，所以读起来也不觉得吃力。
结尾对于我而言是一件困难的事，我常常不晓得要怎样去画一个圆，收笔总是最难。可是我懂得，任何事情的结尾关乎完整性，每个人都想要一个结果，不管好的不好的，否则就死不了这颗心。难题也是题，总会有答案，所以我还是要再絮叨了这两行淡而无味，却关乎整体的文字。
 Taken on the Great Wall, Beijing by me.August 30 Polonaise No.1 in D礼拜五晚上和QF去了淮海路上的时代广场，站了1个小时听王之炅拉小提琴。我迟到了，不过还好并没有错过任何一点演出，几乎是和艺术家一同从幕后走向幕前，当然方向不同。王之炅是近期古典乐坛升起的一颗新星，具体介绍请见：王之炅 演出的曲目一共五首，每首都精彩绝伦，王之炅拉的全情投入，那把据称世界十大名琴之一的1706年制作的斯特拉底瓦里琴在她手中抑扬顿挫，演绎了令人神往的乐章。不懂古典乐如我，也能站完全程欣赏，并在好些桥段有为之倾倒之心，甚至有几处感动非常，太棒了！这些乐曲我也都是第一次听到，最喜欢Winiaski的D大调波兰舞曲（polonaise No.1 in D)，现在电脑里放的就是，可惜电脑太破，声音无法和现场所听做比较。。。
昨天晚上和《心理》杂志社工作的一位JJ出来碰头，在家对面的小花园，呵呵，住了这么久还不晓得原来对面小花园还蛮好玩的，有个小土丘。快女郁可唯被淘汰了，蛮可惜的！郁可唯是我蛮喜欢的选手，大气优雅，可惜跟这个节目的风格和想寻找的人气质有点出入。不过也没关系，郁的实力决定了她会有一番做为，看好你！
 by BlackteajjusticeAugust 19 Second timeBeen to Beijing again! Climbed on the Great Wall finally! Heard some of friends say that the GW is actually not appealing to them as a scenic spot. Don't understand why. My time being there was wonderful! Such a maganificent place with our ancesters' aspiration and wisdom . I couldn't help thinking if I left there in Beijing, I'd definitely come once a week. Ticket price is 45rmb, totally worth the visit! I just managed to climb half(left) of the exposed wall due to our late starting. And the half we chose seems is not the hot route for visitors, so with luck we didn't see the long queue like ants on the wall. And thanks to the rain also, which helps me take pics of the GW without crowds.
Summer Palace is somewhere I made on my visit list this time too. My impression on it before is based on the English textbooks in high school. I know it's a beautiful garden but I didn't anticipate such beautiful garden it is! It's bit like West Lake in Hangzhou but with more charisma and atomsphere. A great imperal garden of capital back to the empier time. I was impressed a lot!
South Luogu Lane is an unexpected spot I went with people. After the interview in Cri, a girl recommended this place to me when I happened to have no plan for the afternoon. So we became the company. And we passed the Central Academy of Drama, it looks like an ordinary campus with familiar atmosphere to me, like my high school. And the lane is commercially full of weird stores selling fascimiles with orginal prices. But certain cafes are okay. Special prices are offered during the afternoon and decoration is arty. I saw Cityweekend (the bj version) in these shops. Pity my camera battery died I didn't take many pics in there. Dinner at a traditional Beijing style hotpot restaurant. The hotpot is old but interesting although food there is so so. 200rmb for four, the price is welcoming.
The other day, I met Jiayu at Xidan. Xidan looks like Shanghai's Babaiban(八佰伴) area with shopping malls and residential entertaining spots. But I was told by Jiayu that to local people Xidan is more like huaihai lu of Shanghai. Jiayu is specially beautiful. I guess that's because she's in love. A woman in love! Congrats to her and her boyfriend! Back to her hometown, she looks much better! We had dinner together and did some windowshopping(lol). It's really nice to see her in BJ again!
 Photo by me. July 26 Before I sleep.I'm very bad at making decisions. That's due to my lacking of a lot of abilities and the most lacking one is determination. I definitely hate myself for that. When I was put into a delimma situation, usually I don't know which one to choose. I guess that's because I'm too afraid of the result of a bad choice would bring. I too care for a certain "result". After thinking it twice, third times or even more, I realized finally that actually there's not a bad choice or a good choice. A choice is a choice. Only when you make it right or wrong. Then the problem goes to if I dare to do it. The braveness. I know that alot of times it's because I'm not brave enough. Back to the determination, I don't have enough of it yet. Maybe that's why sometimes it's so hard for me. And according to my estimation, determination comes from one's self-confidence. Then I can possibly draw a conclusion that my problem is actually I'm lacking of self-confidence. Yeah, that's exactly what I don't have, from many yrs ago till now. Good to find out the originale. But how to improve it? I think I need to think it over!
 Photo by lJuly 19 夜游和快女 昨天终于买了好久以来一直准备买的痰盂头（佳能50mm 1.8II定焦镜头）。晚上约了和W、Y一起在正大晚餐，再拍点夜景。W和Y都是我初中的同学，W马上要当新郎了，Y和我一样，也是剩女。大家沿着滨江大道的沿岸，在周五的夜晚，迎着风，伴着黄浦江两岸辉煌的灯光，亦步亦趋。还是和同学有更多的话题啊，大家在一起总是会谈起一些过往的人生，而那些自以为早已模糊的记忆其实并未变淡，相反，在不经意的提示下就会突然的毫不费力的跳出来，把自己都吓一跳：原来那些日子依然清晰如昨。。。
晚上回来后，因为晚饭的那杯咖啡而没有睡意，于是打开电视调到湖南卫视看《快乐女生》十强第一场。对于这类真人秀节目，我一直津津乐道，从American Idol, Britain's Got Talent到American's Next Top Model, The Apprentice 以致Project Runway，我都买来或是网上一集集的守候。比起电视剧，真人秀真实，现实，而电视剧总摆脱不了异想天开，虚构的成分。扯的远了，说说昨天的比赛和快女，这届10强，我比较中意江映蓉。她属于走偏性感野性路线的歌手，歌舞俱佳，即使放到欧美，应该也会有市场。不过昨天的比赛，她只名列第四，并且在车轮战（也就是所谓的PK）中不敌刘惜君，原因是她在各大网站上的网友支持率偏低。江在现在的大陆市场上不算太主流，因为她太西化了一点，也太放得开了一点，比如昨天唱的那首Buttons(By Pussycat dolls)，歌曲乍一听并不是中国歌迷喜欢的那种舒缓、温情的缠绵情歌，而且江的舞跳的也幅度偏大了点，内地的歌迷可能难以接受。虽然我非常喜欢，江对歌曲处理加进了自己的元素，这首歌蛮难唱的，特别是现场演唱抽去了编曲中装饰成分，光靠嗓音表现力，江做得很到位！
刘惜君在江映蓉后出场，唱的是一首抒情的中文歌，名字叫什么不记得了。反正是清纯的邻家女打扮，声音也是细细绵绵的，就像她的那双似醒非醒的眼睛。走传统主流路线的刘显然更符合大众的胃口。PK掉江之后，刘又干掉了李霄云。李长了张沉静、典雅，讨人喜欢的脸，歌声和举手投足也是四平八稳，嗓音应该算少见的女中音，比较有特色。只是长了这么一张大家闺秀脸的女孩子，竟然穿着打扮，举手投足之间一股中性味。给我印象深刻的当然还有认知度最高的曾轶可。实话说，之前我不喜欢这个绵羊音的女孩子，因为她有张满不在乎的脸和任性为之的双眼。最主要的是她竟然能够凭借其“乱七八糟、不知所谓"的歌（当时的理解）挤掉其他歌唱实力比她强的女孩子。不过随着比赛深入，听到更多她自己写的歌，开始慢慢转变对她的态度。或许，我应该宽容一些，尝试接受一些完全不同的风格。昨晚忽然觉得其实她的歌也不是那么难听，她的歌和歌声或许还真有能够打动人。。。另外，昨晚包小柏回归到了评委席，但是对于曾轶可他依然是一副冷嘲热讽。抱这么说包老师，虽然我觉得他说的有些话是对的，但我不认同他作为一个资深音乐人，一个4、50岁有一定社会地位的中年男人对一个初入社会、懵懂莽撞的女孩子那种尖酸的不依不饶的态度。一个大男人，何必呢？如果你不喜欢她，给个低分就完了，没必要说什么“你留我走！”的话，这样的话其实已经为自己的专业形象减分，昨天晚上竟然还画个什么图来个什么隐喻，进一步打击人家小姑娘的自信，更过份的是说听了曾唱歌，晚上睡不着之类的话，真怪没意思，犯不着的。个人以为，对于后辈，包小柏少的不止是“一点”前辈的大将之风；对于一个19岁的女孩子，包丧失的不仅是“一点”绅士风度。
 @滨江大道July 16 Nanjing. Nanjing.My trip to Nanjing, a city which I have a bit special emotion involved, is around two days. My Dad usually worked in there as a logistics staff for the army basement for years. And before and after I was given birth, around a year and more, Mom took me there stayed with Dad. We almost settled down but due to the homesickness of Dad, he finally decide to give up the identity of Nanjing and return to Shanghai. We went back once when I was 7. I don't remember much from that experience. All I can describle of Nanjing is the big tall trees on the streets, telling the difference from an old captial of ancient China and Shanghai - a metropolis of modern China.
This time I went with Mom and cousin Tingting, who's back on a regular summer vacation from Madrid, Spain. As the timetable was arranged as a two-day-trip with not much time to see and stay, we didn't search each and every cornor of the city. Our stops including The Mausoleum of Dr. Sun Yat-sen (中山陵), Presidential Palace(总统府), Confucius Temple(夫子庙), The Ming City Wall(明城墙) and Xuanwu Lake(玄武湖). Really, just some normal scientic spots, nothing special. My favorite goes to the Presidential Palace. The buildings and gardens together made a very impressive spot mixed with Chinese ancient garden's delicance and Western architetures' neat structure. Walking on the corridors of the palace is a wonderful experience ignoring the weekend march crowd. I could feel a bit of the history by walking and breathing there. And the old Jiangnan style garden with a modern skyscaper background is something impressed me too! Very nice place and in my opinion, somewhere worth a whole afternoon visit.
Other places like MSYS, the MCW are quite disappointing. Specially the city wall. I've seen the city wall of Xi'an three years ago. And compared to that, this wall is just like a piece of sh*t. Very short and incomplete. Just several holes available for the visitors to enter. But who's interested in the artificial hole in the wall?! And the ticket price( yeah, how dare they to ask for a ticket to this crap?) is high to 25 kuai per person. Ridiculous! Ticket of Xi'an city wall is sell for only 20 kuai and you could rent a bicycle and start a two-hour ride journey.
Xuanu Lake is very big, I think is even bigger than the famous west lake. Just it's not as delicated as the west lake in Hangzhou. I finally made my little dream come true by sitting on a drifting boat on the river. This, I didn't make it when I was wandering around the Sudi of west lake this May. The drifting is great! Even if it's 2pm with a summer heat, I want to extend the process longer and longer. Tingting seems to be quite indulged in the lake journey, he talked to buy a house along the river even. And Mom said she would like to be a house-keeper for the house if it's for real.
Nanjing, in my sight, is quite modern city. She has almost everything(normal living brands) we have in Shanghai. And chances are that she has some luxurary secrets too just I might be missing. Because of the similiarity, I believe it is a very convienent place for poeple to live. But regarding the features, I didn't see many. And unfortunately I didn't see any cute boys on the street also. What a pity! Overall, it's a lovely old city with modern temper. I'm in between of heart it or hate it. You can find it in my pics!
 Taken @ 夫子庙  @总统府July 10 I'm going to Nanjing for the weekend.Pictures will be showed off here later when I got back. This time going with Mom and Tingting(cousin). I'm leaving to the railway station in five mins. Here I come, NJ! March 31 Happy April Fool's Day!Weather is still cold and plus changeable. But my mood is not so bad, well, not because I've found a decent job but I'm getting used to the situation and I'm adjusting my mood bit by bit. And because of the lovely breeze. I quite love the smell of spring, the air makes the breeze so fresh and soothing, just great!
In this lovely weather, I just want to walk in the sunshine feelin' the warmness and lightness, forgetting everything that is annoying and unpleasant. Picking my lovely camera with me, going somewhere or anywhere that is with green and plants, taking pics of them. Alone or not alone doesn't matter. What matters is the attitude, being positive!
Got an email from Sandeep accidentally last day, regarding me and bringing me updated news of him from London. Really nice to hear from him. It's been almost a year or two since we talked on line and more than three yrs since we last met. Like he told, I miss ya too! Up till now, I always think the trip of Xi'an we took is one of the most memorable experiences I had thru all my travelling experience. The days we were together truely taught me a lot, not only helped me make a big progress of my spoken English but also brought me positiveness in life. Thus, I really feel like I owe him a lot. Because I didn't bring him the same much as he brought to me. I just wished him had fun from this trip too. And in the letter, he mentioned he probably would come to China next year and hope we could travel together again. I'm so glad hearing him say so! Really! I'll look forward to that! And he mentioned I should go to London to visit also because I love taking pics and London is such a beautiful place for me to fulfill my hobby. Dear, I do wish to visit London and you! (And London lives another friend of mine, David. He visited me in Shanghai in 2006 too. That's another nice experience too!) Your words just light my long-time wish. How I admire and envy those who could go abroad to study or work or whatever! I just hate myself why I'm now still not capable of doing that! But I'm sure there'll be one day and it's drawing near.
And I start taking e-art training course from this week, the course will last eight monthes. Meanwhile, I'm keeping the job-hunt journey! Good to know those outstanding students in my class, they are all brilliant. I'm a bit in awe. Hope to make friends w/ them and learn from them!
 February 22 Outside is cold.Spring is here. Unfortunately the chilblains on my right hand finally appeared in this time. I almost forgot on hand while I was suffering from them on my feet in winter. So yes, it still is as cold as winter.
I met Susan the other day, and her little Baby girl who was born two months ago. She got recovered very well in my eye. I can't tell a big difference from the last time I saw her, it was more than a year ago, before her pregenance. Time flies like an arrow. The past year was so dashingly quick. Both the beat and the load of work make me can't even stop and give a look at the people who I used to know. Now I have plenty of spare time, and I'll review those I ignored once. Congratulations to Susan! Baby is so cute and pretty! To be honest, I admire her very much! For a woman in her middle twenties, it might be time to settle down and have a baby. But at the moment, I have nothing in my hand. This is not the first time I think of this and I know this will not be the last time either. Shall I take the action? The answer is yes. I will not sit back, doing nothing. Time to roll.
Saw Wendy's blog updated again after a long pause. Great news! I from time to time go to her blog to see if there's anything new. We don't hear each other very often now so the on line space has become the way we kind of "connect". Hope to see more from now on. Write to me when you can. I look forward to seeing and knowing more of you and your life because I started to feel the strangeness, which is formidable.
One thing happened last night or this early morning, I saw a big dark shadow standing on my bedside and I was terrified. I even cried out when this one turned her body towards me. It's Mom actually. She's finding the portable radio I usually put beside my pillow at night. (I remain the habit of listening to the radio before going to sleep. ) Mom hushed me and gently stroked my forehead to make me calm down. Very useful. All due to the horrible stories and novels I listened and read recently. When I went over this in the daytime today, I feel very funny.

春节过完了，不过我还是蹲在家里，看看电视上上网，养养肥肉，心态时好时坏。不确定这样的日子还要过多久，突然又非常想要出去旅行。算是一种逃避，也算是散心调整。目的地可能只是非常近的周边，最近都不算太冷，不过可能再暖和些，同时也过了春运去会更好。工作还在找，年前都没怎么投简历，一方面是自己懒，想等着年后机会多的时候行动；一方面也是做私活，想专心一点。私活的好处在于可以脱贫，不过不稳定，有了上口么下口，所以还是要找份稳定全职。
老妈这个春节过得真是有史以来最忙的一个春节，连除夕夜也是在加班中度过。所以我们没有一起看春晚，也变成我多年来第一个没有完整看的春晚。据说今年不咋的，不过我蛮喜欢赵本山那个小品《不差钱》，很搞笑，小沈阳太有才了！这年头还是有一夜成名的事，小沈阳就算一例。希望我有天也能这么幸运，哈哈！^_^
 December 25 Against All OddsFirst of all, I wish you guys a merry christmas! And I wish it'll be very fine in the coming new year!
You don't really know what could and will happen later. And I deeply feel it now. I flied to Beijing and flied back early the month. It came because I applied the job in both global times and a photography magazine called sheying zhi you(Friend of photography) and got calls from them asking me to take the interview. To be honest, I didn't think much when I pushed the APPLY button of the magazine. But for the newspaper, I actually sent the resume via mail. Global times is gonna open an English newspaper next year, and I regard it as an opportunity a million people would kill for. So when I received the call from the hr person from GT, I at once made up my mind that I'm going to BJ to take the interview even tho it's just the first one among a bunch, the written test.
Let me tell you what I saw and thought when the plane was spiraling above the beijing airport at nighttime. The city is so magnificent and be paved with those wild straight golden streets. It's so so amazing! Just till then, I realized what the capital means. I think this is the most beautiful time I've experimented during my bj trip. I didn't go many places later because of the short time and my budget. But I went to the Forbidden City, for around two hrs. Not seeing everything in detail as I hoped, too many people, not a good time for visiting. But I can't deny the greatness. Speaking of the interview, one is a disaster and one is okay. I'm more than sure that GT would not even consider me in next round and feel very pity thatI screwed up the chance so easily. And I'm still in the process of waiting for the other. I passed the first round but they certainly think I deserve another more to surfer.
It's so cold outta there. I didn't take a lot of pics as I'm suppsed to. Got the news that my ex now is involving in a new relationship. Congrats, dear! I'm bit sad but I wish you both a sweet love! Be good!
 December 05 于无声处The global economy crsis does hit us now. I was surprised to see most people on Kaixin001.com still vote for the "GEC without bad effect on my life." Well, those who vote for it definitely are the lucky ones. I, on the other hand, am not fortunate enough to avoid being affected by the strong storm. SH Magazine, after four years running, will cease its publication on the end of December, whch means unfortunately I'm going to lose my job very soon. Since when I'm finally invovled in this society? I'm so numb that I didn't notice it until I was hit. Just being nostalgical these days, really admire the students on the street who remain naive and carefree. I am for long away from those days, those sweet campus staying days, just worrying about the marks prof. would give me. But even I didn't get high, I still have chance for next term...
Don't panic is what I should say to myself. Look on the bright side is what I always say to myself these days. I'm going to lose the job but I gain a lot my hard works paid back to me. I'm full rather than empty, I should be so lucky in the unexpected and unknown future. I feel I'm quite confident about it sometimes. Actually I want to tell a lot of people who stand the same situation as I stand today. Cheer up! Like every ten years the GEC comes to us, life goes on and will be better as always too. It's just a circle. Stay with faith!
 November 08 With Or Without You自从有了开心网，好像又能记录又能日记，所以懒得开SPACE写东西，也仅有这样落雨的深夜，才能记起点滴，才能回到这里。
今天是超忙碌的一天，其实这个礼拜的后半周都是超级忙碌的，因为自己争取到了做Fashion Feature的机会，4个P。于是乎，终于可以走出沉闷的办公室去到清冷的街道上步行，去到拥挤的街头和路人抢出租，去到不同的服装公司，品牌公关公司横挑竖挑，挑挑拣拣各种外套，配饰，包包。服装编辑真的不好做啊，真辛苦！碰到Nice点的公关，还能很开心地聊个2句，或者就是冷冰冰，冰冰冷的晚娘脸公关，说媒体难伺候？我不知道。不过有些公关确是。。。 不说也罢
天一步步冷了，周一晚上和小爱玛去了新天地看量子危机碰到Dan，一幅工装打扮，稍显疲沓。不过我们还是很兴奋能看到旧时BOSS,和他热情拥抱行贴面大礼. 好怀念好脾气的毕丹，现在情况不同类。听同事说，近期杂志状况并不好，可能会有变故，虽然自丹走后，有些想跳的小想法，不过如果大环境有变，处境一定被动，想来也是烦恼一桩。
还是单身，在即将到来的1111，大喊一声。心中比较少幻想，只是在看到旁人双双对对时会有一丝失落。But hey, I'm FABULOUS single!
 October 12 好想好好爱你秋天来了，好像已经来了一段时间了。空气中秋的味道渐浓，心中跟着起了惶惑。工作上有了一些变动，跟随变动所出的一些状况，几分措手，几分无奈，几分豁达，几分失落。看着地铁中招聘网站的广告，广告词反反复复留在了心底。
决定买镜头了，买个便宜的定焦头吧。因为，慢慢开始觉得自己其实还是比较擅长拍人物。风景实在太大了，我还不能handle. 报纸上看到佳能出新品定焦镜头了，是24mm焦段的，估计蛮贵的，不过可以去看看。申请的中国银行信用卡11月份会寄到家里，准备用信用卡分期买本本，买好本本之后，准备再添个WII+WII FIT。既然不喜欢普通健身房的氛围，高级点的又太贵，那么还是在家练好了。
最近开始关注经济，突然发觉自己在这块的知识几近于零。开始买CBN WEEKLY，发觉是本很不错的杂志，有点想订阅。希望自己的生活简单，精致。
