Love at First Sight

I didn’t update the space yesterday, since I’m back over over 21:30 last night after the class, then locked the Lab soon.

Here is a poem I like, which is the base of the book Turn Left? Turn Right?(Xiang Zuo Zou, Xiang You Zou) , a most popular book of Jimmy’s. Enjoy it~

Love at First Sight

Both are convinced
that a sudden surge of emotion bound them together.
Beautiful is such a certainty,
but uncertainty is more beautiful.

Because they didn’t know each other earlier, they suppose that
nothing was happening between them.
What of the streets, stairways and corridors
where they could have passed each other long ago?

I’d like to ask them
whether they remember– perhaps in a revolving door
ever being face to face?
an “excuse me” in a crowd
or a voice “wrong number” in the receiver.
But I know their answer:
no, they don’t remember.

They’d be greatly astonished
to learn that for a long time
chance had been playing with them.

Not yet wholly ready
to transform into fate for them
it approached them, then backed off,
stood in their way
and, suppressing a giggle,
jumped to the side.

There were signs, signals:
but what of it if they were illegible.
Perhaps three years ago,
or last Tuesday
did a certain leaflet fly
from shoulder to shoulder?
There was something lost and picked up.
Who knows but what it was a ball
in the bushes of childhood.

There were doorknobs and bells
on which earlier
touch piled on touch.
Bags beside each other in the luggage room.
Perhaps they had the same dream on a certain night,
suddenly erased after waking.

Every beginning
is but a continuation,
and the book of events
is never more than half open.

一见钟情

他们彼此深信
是瞬间迸发的热情使他们相遇
这样的确定是美丽的
但变幻无常更为美丽

他们素未谋面,所以他们确定彼此并无瓜葛。
但是自街道、楼梯、大堂传来的话语… …

他们也许擦肩而过一百万次了吧。
我想问他们
是否记得… …
在旋转门
面对面那一刹
或是在人群中喃喃道出的“对不起”,
或是在电话的另一端道出的“打错了”。
但是我早知道答案。
是的,他们并不记得。

他们会很惊讶,原来缘分已经戏弄他们多年。

时机尚未成熟变成他们的命运,
缘分将他们拉近,驱离。
阻挡着他们的去路
忍着笑声
然后闪到一旁… …

有一些迹象和信号存在,
即使他们尚无法解读。
也许在三年前
或者就在上个星期二,
有某片叶子飘舞于
肩与肩之间?
有东西掉了又捡了起来?
天晓得,也许是那个
消失于童年灌木丛中的球?
还有事前已被触摸
层层覆盖的
门把和门铃。

检查完毕后并排放置的手提箱。
有一晚,也许同样的梦,
到了早晨变得模糊。

每个开始
毕竟都只是续篇,
而充满情节的书本
总是从一半开始看起。

——辛波斯卡

I am a workaholic?

I think it’s a joke because I believe that there is no intersection of workaholics and me, but I’ve heard someone said me likes a workaholic this morning. The one who said that consider me as a workaholic for I’m staying at the Center Lab day after day, and always stayed for a hole day. I don’t know that why others consider me as a workaholic for this reason, I choose to stay at the lab just because the Computer is much better than my own, and the Network in lab is much better than dormitory.

There are more friends in lab than dormitory who we are more common grounds, guys in dormitory play game, watch TV or Movies and chat on QQ with strangers, I didn’t like this life-style before, and I can’t accept it now. The hole meaning of dormitory for me is there is a bed for me to sleep down, and sometimes to play mini games.

Actually I didn’t be a workaholic before, and I wish I won’t be a workaholic forever, life is so nice if I spend more time for travel, reading, stay with my friends, listening music, and do anything with Kitty :P

居然现在我是看题手…

其实我觉得怎么看我应该都是我们队英语最挫的一个…不知道为什么但是就是我看题快一点…结果现在实际上好像我是我们队的看题的人, 虽然一般第一次看的不够细, 不过一般都不会太影响结果了…

继续努力, 看英文, 写英文, 有机会多练习听和说吧, 听说读写都不能拉下啊…

底线

Moonmist, 在这个秋天, 注定是我这段生命里最重要的部分.

今年, 我们有很多惊喜, 有太多的意外收获, 同时, 也有大家的辛勤努力和前辈们的积累. 今年, 我们依然会说我们要银牌, 不过, 这只能是Moonmist的底线.

从现在的成绩来看, 出线甚至都是可以想象的事情, 而不像去年, 如果出线了那才撞鬼. 我现在都可以YY明年初夏的夏威夷了.

比较切实一点的目标是, 我们要在银牌的领先军团中拿到金牌, 这是一个可以实现, 并且也不是太难实现的一个目标. 我有看过我们做的练习赛别人的成绩, 有过比较有过分析才得出此结论, 并且现在队内认可这一点并且我们也都在为这个努力. 今年的武大没有虚华, 我们要将朴实无华演绎成绚烂夺目.

遵守KO的规则, 不透露其他的, 遵循我们队的原则, 好好努力. Moonmist.snoopy, 你需要加油, 不要让Moonmist因你而失色.

Flu…

I found that all the people around me had a flu in a night, include me. I had a headache yesterday morning when I was going to have my breakfast, then I realized that I had a flu too, sigh~. I think I can defend it myself, but the headache gone with me the hole day, so I had a pill last night. There are kinds of pills on most of my classmates’s desk, or you can say most of us have a flu now… what a pity. When I get up this morning, headache still with me, the pills are useless.

We did a bad job this afternoon, ACM/ICPC 2002 Asia Regional – Manila, the description of the problems are very hard to understand, so many bugs in the problems and our codes… The result is unacceptable to me, because I insist we can got 7 Yes at least, as the result of HUST’s training contest.

The Champion

Not me or the people around me, in this words the champion means dwyak(Dai Wenyuan), the captain of SJTU(Shanghai JiaoTong Univ.)’s champion team on 2004/05, the winner of ACM/ICPC 2005 Final – Shanghai, now the coach of the hole ACM/ICPC team of SJTU.

I came across him at Shanghai the last spring, when I was in Shanghai for the Advisory Council For Programming Skills Development In Asia/China, he leave me a very good impression on the bus we visit the Songjiang Campus Town of Shanghai. There is a little surprise when I had the first sight on him, because he looks as the same as us, and a bit quietly than others, no special to my teammates. But the one, had bear off all prizes I want in the field of ACM/ICPC, 7 times contestant, for 5 times Regional and 2 times Final, and the champion of 2005 Final. He came out from the OI Team of Jiangsu province, did a hard work to be the captain of SJTU_T1, in my eyes the course nearly perfection.

I’ve visited his Live.Space and to write the words down for understand something, but I can’t describe them with English, so just these introduction. If you are a ICPCer, his Live.Space will be useful.

96’s Final

This afternoon we did a practice contest, problems and data are come from the ACM/ICPC 96’s Final Contest. There is so many things looks strange, the English to draw the problems is hard to understand, we did a hard work to read and understand, it makes two problems which are very easy to pass be passed later than our estimate.

I got some reply strange either, a problem I used double to check the feasibility and got a Wrong Answer, but used float to got a Yes. Then another easy problem reverted a  Runtime Error for more than twenty times, because there is a mistake about the means of that problem others told me, I checked both n and t for the end of input, actually the t might be 0(zero), so I got more than 700 minutes penalty, sigh~.

Finally, although there is a good result as we hoped, but we still be the winner, 96’s Final is too old to the modern contests, the style of problems had been changed hugely, as I can get a better score on those contests.

Conan Movie 10

I forget to update the space because I’ve download the Conan Movie 10(M10) last afternoon, and spend the evening to watch the movie. It was exciting and full of suspenseful, Conan’s fans include me had a celebration for the M10.

Sorry for the miss of update.
