Me luv bubble tea~~~

Hello, everyone! How are you guys?

I felt very happy every time after kendo practice. It's the "Happy" hormone, I guess :)
Anyway, I heard many funny jokes somehow today... Make me even happier...

Someone said these in a seminar,

~Human prays. But, I know my dog doesn't.
~The squirrels at the backyards don't know when they will get their next nut, but, they won't hire Mexican Chipmunks to collect them.

Hahahahaha!!!! I can't stop laughing after listening to the 2nd joke. It's hella funny :D
So ironic yet so true :)

In Malaysia, you can change it to:
The squirrels at the backyards don't know when they will get their next nut, but, they won't hire Bangladesh/Indon Chipmunks to collect them.

Hahahahahaha, still that funny! I'm evil, I know ~~~

Actuallty, both jokes came from a speaker in a seminar. I was too tired of studying today that I went to a seminar this evening. The seminar was held in conjunction with Darwin's 200th anniversary and "Origin of Life's" 150th anniversary. I guess this is the last talk for the whole Darwin's celebration. Luckily, I'm just in time to catch the last train.

I was reading a paper outside the hall, and M passed by. And ya, I managed to ask her to join me :)
It's been a while since we did things tomorrow. We used to go eat together, went to concert together, attend talks together, join club together, and even have fun in NYC together last year. What a memorable good old day, how I wish we can do the same thing over again :)
M is a girl I met in my Music class. She is an international student just like me. She is from a small country at South America called Suriname, a small country that you probably never heard of just like Malaysia to some people. Ya, we're Chinese, a non majority race in our motherlands. She knew a bit of Malay food/culture coz there are Indon Malay in her country. She knew what "roti" is coz the major race in her country is Indian. The coolest part is we both speak Hakka! How cool is that! (Though she said she couldn't understand mine (=.=lll)

Sorry for the digression. So, the talk was titled, "The Earth will survive for another 2 mil years, will we?" or something like that.... It's about how fundamental essential genes or "nanomachine" such as chloroplasts are conserved, and how we, the human, destroy the Earth through speech evolution. I just learned about photosynthesis at biochem this evening, so it's kind of cool listening about photosynthesis from evolutionary point of view.

The conclusion I got is that the Earth will survive for another millions of year until the sun dies off. The microbes will survive all the destruction by humans since they have survived the ice age, volcanic eruption etc. But, for humans, sorry about that, if we continue to drill all the oil, create more carbon footprint, we'll not only kill other plants or animals, but we'll end up terminating ourselves faster than backgraound extinction..." Cruel but true!

The talk and the speaker were both interesting. I like the way he presented the materials with all the fact and graphics, and also the JOKES! They made me laugh like a mad person :P

The seminar was so interesting that I ran late to my Kendo pratice. I went there at 9pm though the practice started at 8.30pm. Luckily, I only missed few set of Kendo no Kata. I'm glad that I went to the practice coz it's the last pratice before the break. It's tiring as usual but it's rewarding. I felt myself is doing better in this practice. And, Sensei said I can get the Bogu set! ;)

Before we dismissed, we had a small discussion about the tournament yesterday. Ya, we had a kendo tournament in Rutgers University. Kendoka from Northeastern US such as Boston U, Yale, Cornell, DC and NY came over to compete. It's fun to see people testing and competing. Hopefully, I'll able to test in the next tournament! Have to work really hard and brush up my skills! Jia you!

And, I talked with him after the practice. Finally~~~~ @-@ Yes! So happy!

本来以为我们会在一起,
可是, 回去一趟, 所有的友情,热情都没了
是你忘了, 还是我变了?
是你忘了我们一起念书,吃饭的时光?
还是我不记得我们一星期数次的约定?
对不起,我把事情搞得一塌糊涂...
或者, 我真的还没准备好...
或者, 我根本不适和你.

对不起, 如果你看懂这一段, 我们可以成为普通朋友吗?
真的对不起. 我还是没勇气写英文 (=.=lll)
