今年是我在國樂社裡第一次擔任檢定的評審，原本學弟來找我的時候，我並沒有答應他，想說自己才大五，應該還有很多次機會，不過在參加完三榮說明會後，我改變主意了，這說不定是我倒數幾次機會擔任評審了，所以最後還是上了。

評審總共有五位，心如老師、sasimi, 朱、明勳還有我，這倒是出乎我的意料，原以為學弟找不太到人所以才來幫忙的… XD 其實過程中還有點小出入，原本葆如也是評審之一，不過醫院臨時有事情走不開沒辦法來，而心如老師本來說不來，後來也是跑過來了，加加減減人數還是剛好，這也蠻神奇的。 Keep Reading

其實原本沒想到禮拜六晚上就是聖誕夜，原先會訂在這一天只是想要避開考試，還有忙碌的下個禮拜，不過好死不死碰上了，當然就順便慶祝啦！之所以會在船老大，原本是因為葆如同學給了他一張餐卷，後來她又拿到自己的，而且期限只到今年年底，雖然她在 apply 大爆炸，我在急診大爆炸，不過不吃白不吃，還是打了電話去訂位。 Keep Reading

Yesterday, Kilo asked me to query CGMH about the result of the residents enrollment for her, because she doesn’t want to hear the bad news herself. I made the call in the coffee break time via Skype, on the wireless in the 2nd Teaching Building.

The connection quality seemed vary bad. The other side could hear my voice, but I could just intermittently hear his. Finally, I was referred to the Medical Teaching Division, and successfully asked them about the result of the residents enrollment. Unfortunately, Kilo‘s not enrolled.

Hope she won’t be too sad when I tell her the news tonight.

I’m now at the Chinese Blogs Awarding Ceremony 2005, which is sponsored by Chinatimes.

The reason why I’m here is that about three days ago, I read a article posted by KJ. She said that any of the participants will have change to get a Acer laptop, so I signed up without any hesitancy. :p

There was something wrong before the ceremony began. The workers didn’t know about that the participants, not the finalists, can have chances to have a lottery of the Acer laptop. But finally after I confirmed the situation with the workers, it’s solved. :)

The hosts are Gon-Tou-Jian (工頭堅) and Miss Chian (sorry, I don’t know her name exactly. ^^a) Jia-Li Chuan, who are both bloggers. They play an important role in the whole ceremony. Time-controlling is very good. And some of the prize-awarding people are very famous, such as amarylliss, Ke-Sian Liu, Schee (although I’ve seen him before), etc. Although I sat in the back of the chamber, I’m very happy to see these famous people.

Some of the award-winners are not as I thought originally, but I think it should be fair.

It’s almost time to have the lottery, but I’ll just stop here. Hope the God will give me a surprise. :p

2005.12.17 UPDATE: Of course, I’m not lucky enough… ╮(╯_╰)╭ And the list of all award-winners is here.

幸好下午七八節的課已經被調開，不然還真不曉得該不該翹課殺過去參加華文部落格頒獎典禮，其實說參加也是蠻怪的啦！只是去看看人家的頒獎典禮，順便碰碰運氣看能不能抽到個什麼筆記型電腦之類的… :p

網站上寫說六點開始報到，結果我到了那邊工作人員都還在佈置，而且他們好像也搞不太清楚入圍者和純來參加的人有什麼不同，唉… 總覺得每次這種活動，網路的宣傳和實際上總是有點落差，難道他們沒有先開會統整過意見嗎？非常詭異… 一開始以為被騙了，搞了半天只有入圍者可以抽獎，後來有點不甘心不要臉的再跑去問一次，總算拿到抽獎卷，呵呵… 幸好沒有提前走掉。 Keep Reading

從上個禮拜就開始計畫，不過經過一些波折後，總算敲定今天團練結束後要一起去吃薑母鴨幫暐倫學長餞行、敘敘舊。

話說今天也是學長最後一次參加團練，雖然說以後來台北外調時還有機會，不過可能還是最後一次的機會。大家還是一樣把一隻鳥仔、杵舞石音、豐年祭走一走後，時間到了就準備出發了。 Keep Reading

PCMan is my classmate, who wrote some famous programs including PCMan, a BBS client, IE Tab etc. He is making a speech about GTK+ programming at Corridor Cafe NTU now. The sponsor is TOSSUG. They hold conferences every 3 weeks, and this week is PCMan’s turn.

He introduces what GTK+ is and an associated IDE program called Glade. Also he makes a demo of how to use Glade to establish a GTK+-based window program. Huu… I’m always confused in window programming. The reason I come here is in the first sentence, “PCMan is my classmate.” But maybe I underestimate the charm PCMan has. There are now about 50-60 people here listening to him. Wow! I think he can run in the election of legislators in the future. :p

Hmmm… he records video of the speech. Maybe someday I can put a link here. But he speaks Chinese only… :p

2005.12.16 UPDATE: The video is here (avi, 260MB), the presentation file is here (pdf, 295KB), and the demo codes is here (tar.gz, 109KB).

Thanks Alcoholic for lending me the DVD.

Although I got this nearly a month ago, I still couldn’t get interest in watching it on weekdays. But after the Keroro episodes had been all watched, I have to switch to this more valuable TV drama, The White Tower.

The story is about a university hospital and the intrigue between several doctors. One of the leading actor, Goro Zaizen (ja), who is a young surgery, sly and he always does things unscrupulously to reach his goals. Another leading actor, Shuji Satomi (ja), who is a physician, has ideals about the relationship between the doctors and the patients. He is a good man, but seems not match to the environment. (Huuu…. It’s so hard for me to describe someone in English… >_<)

Sometimes there are scenes of operation rooms. Maybe because I’m a medical student, I felt it goes into my mind so deeply, especially after the experimental surgery courses (zh-TW) last month. I’ve just watched two episodes. Maybe during the period I watch through all 21 episodes, I’ll be moved by some stories of the drama.

Yesterday, Kilo and her family went southly to Changhua for her application of the first-year resident of the ophthalmology department in Changhua Christian Hospital. The interview is today, and I got her call nearly at noon. She said she’s enrolled, 2 out of 8, but they asked her to sign a contract to ensure that she won’t cheat them.

I thought she’ll be enrolled before she went, but after hearing about this, I still felt so happy. Some for her and some for myself. For her, at least, she won’t get unemployed from now on. For me, If she needs to work there, I’ll have no trouble back at home. I can choose VGHTC, or even VGHKS for my intern training.

Hmmm… Maybe today is a turning point for both of our lives.
