Slumdog Millionaire-- Dreams on fire

It's the night before Hematology/Oncology midterm. In the past ten days, I took a final exam for III block and an unorganized quiz on eyes examination.

I really need a song that can sooth my anxiousness and calm myself down. I guess I am burn-out.

Well, things are not always bad. A friend asked me how is lif? After thinking seriously rather than saying fine, good, hanging in there, I said can't complain. After all, this is what I choose to do and this career is what I have longed for.

I have been receiving emails from big sis about her exciting trips around the world. She mentioned some places she visited in China in a recent email. It totally reminded me my middle school geography, one of my favorite class. Yikes, I would really love to walk a thousand miles than study ten thousand books...

Hum...maybe I should go back to mastering chemotherapy.

Where is home? Does it mean where you grow up, where your family is, or where you want to be buried?

After leaving the place I grew up for so long, I has become a stranger to the land. Yet, something is still so familiar in the air. I guess it is oxygen... or pollution... or maybe thoughts of home.

It felt like the city subway is in a vacuum. Only sunbeam and the frozen time.

An amazing combo

I tried this amazing dessert when I went to visit Jiu-fen, Taiwan. The brick in the picture is made from maltose and peanut. The chef used the tool that carpenters use for smoothing woods to create many thin slices of maltose and peanut mix; this mix is then laid on a thin and round flour-based bread skin and wrap up with a scoop of TARO icecream... (some customers like to put in Coriandrum sativum, a kind of seasoning leaf)

It's awfully delicious...










Here is my dad enjoying the dessert and my mom awaiting her turn to bite on it...haha
