華盛頓驚魂記~~被司機導遊放鴿子

-
2009/4/12 I am so upset to join the e-world travel & tours. It is my first time to join their tour, but never want to join again! 中國人講求息事寧人，但所受的不公平或委屈忍著不講，回家就爆發了。回家的路上當場看到一對夫婦，妻子因為坐下時弄到隔壁的黑人女人，黑人女人生氣對她說:你怎麼一句Sorry都不會說。妻子沒有回半句話，不久後她和坐我隔壁的先生開始用廣東話對罵。覺得中國人真的是很可悲，家裡人最倒楣，也因為是家人受傷更深，也許因為先生不會安慰妻子反而責備妻子(我猜)所以妻子的火山就爆發了。 4.11 華盛頓賞櫻~兩日遊 媽媽喜歡看櫻花，她大老遠從台北來到紐約看我，特地訂了華盛頓的賞櫻行程，剛好趕上華盛頓櫻花季最後一天(3/28-4/12)。不料前幾天又颳風又下雨，僅有幾枝碩果僅存的櫻花，大部分都換上綠衣長出新芽了。 體會一定要堅持到底!別人都凋了謝了，她卻存在，不簡單的櫻花。 多了兩個要付費的行程，華盛頓24個博物館都免錢，導遊偏帶我們去杜莎夫人蠟像館，另有搭乘華盛頓港的小船遊湖共三十元。晚上的華盛頓櫻花節煙火活動沒有看七點就準備回旅館，以為可以三十分鐘內到不料花了一個多小時，且也非所寫的酒店Best Western而是Candlewood in VA。本來大學同學想帶我們逛逛，盡地主之誼也因為我們太晚而做罷。 馬里蘭的海軍官校是蠻特別的，喜歡走在那小鎮的感覺。 Baltimore海港就沒什麼，風大雨大又冷，等大家買雨傘後就進去food court eat。不包餐也不是我預先知道的，因為傳單寫送早餐，早餐都有了三餐應該沒問題，不過還有導遊有帶我們去吃自助餐。 4.12是復活節，天氣很好，在林肯紀念堂及廣場照很多照片。之後是參觀國會的行程:10:55-11:15 。車子停很遠，因此我跑過大水池去看OBAMA宣誓就職的噴水池，好棒好美，還有很漂亮的鬱金香，我照的不亦樂乎。快到集合時間時趕緊跑回去，看到BUS的CHARTER放心了走了一下，車子竟然開走了，我以為他會等我，趕緊跑去攔車，導遊看到我，車子停了下來. 導遊說差點把你丟在這邊，我以為他是開玩笑，直到他說老黑司機不等人，我才知道我差點被放鴿子了。因為我遲到六分鐘。從國會噴泉跑到馬...

Brooklyn Museum

2009.3.7 Because my conversation partner Bates Whitney is sick today, so I sit in the cafeteria and chat with other students. But one Chinese man came and continue to talked about politic stuff, he made me so uncomfortable, therefore I decided to go to Brooklyn museum with Yuki Hiraoka. Taiwanese and Japanese have many things in common; I like Japanese people more than Chinese. One of my Japanese classmates told me that I should introduce Taiwan to let other students know more about Taiwan, and this is America, no one can deny Taiwan, even people from Tibet said Tibet is a country. It is my first time to Brooklyn, before, I think it is not safe to come, but I find the Brooklyn museum is so bright and organize. Today is the First Saturday in March, so many free programs supported by Target (department store). http://www.brooklynmuseum.org/visit/first_saturdays.php I enjoy the exhibition tour of ancient Egypt and the storytelling time. http://www.brooklynmuseum.org/exhibitions/coptic/ ...

生日快樂

-
在美國收到的第一份生日禮物 今早美國的同事 MAISIE 叫住我，祝我生日快樂並給我一份生日禮物，是一本書- "The secret of GOD's Presence" by Andrew Murray. What a surprise, because I do not remember I told her it is my birthday, and I got the gift. It must be from God! I am so thankful because someone knows my birthday. Recently (after MOM back to taiwan), I feel lonely here, my roommate is so quiet, she never shared or talked to me, always I have to start the conversation. And we go to office or go home individually, even in the same bus or same train, she chose sit acrossly the aisle, not next to me. She is very polite and afraid to bother, but too quiet and dull. Luckily, I can talk to God, and Mom's radio really helps me a lot, I like to turn on the radio and have some "noise" at home. 早上，打電話給爸媽，只為了聽一句"生日快樂"，收到哥哥從台灣打來的電話也很高興，覺得還是台灣好。 中午和Mallory到world finance center- winter garden旁的海港野餐，想起英國Southampton的港口，溫暖的陽光掃除冬天的陰霾。下午授信科的同事合買了一個strawberry shortcake to celebrate, I am so appreciated that I can ...
