人際關係逐漸打開...
認識的年齡層也越來越大
年齡將近30、單身的人似乎壓力還不小呢XD
雖然這是合理的,但發身在自己認識的人身上還是會驚訝......

The Black Swan
I had tried to be as informed and well planned as possible for everything in life. Yet The Black Swan, by Nassim Nicholas Taleb is a book all about how it is all the unexpected, high impact events that matters.
This might, intriguingly, be one of the best book I've bought.

Trying to prove they are worth their pay...
Regardless of the nature of any institution, there are always the employees that are constantly doing meaningless work just to prove they are worth the pay. Truth be told, they are sitting on job slots that are absolutely unneeded, and doing as much as you can to "prove you are at least doing something" sadly proves exactly the opposite.
Examples include approving and supervising the replacement of things that were working just fine. Telling people to obey meaningless policies while they them selves couldn't even figure out why it is necessary.
In some cases, the fact that the institution was doing just fine before his/her "new slot" was created supports the case of the slot's uselessness. If you find yourself struggling to figure out why you are paid, you should get a new job for your own good.
In a twist, people of this type are especially prevalent in governments, and sadly, even presidents or prime ministers of some countries struggle to show they are important.

動畫與阿宅
也許,萌萌的蘿莉動畫是給交不到女友又怕寂寞的人的重口味心理補償
因為隔了一個螢幕也沒有互動,所以要重口味
結果有些人重口味習慣了就上癮了,反倒離現實世界越來越遠,而成為重度阿宅 XD
說起來真是糟糕到一種可怕的境界

語言筆記
離心機在義大利文中是母的@@
(所以義大利人若不小心會用"She"來稱呼離心機......)
感謝古代Anglo-Saxon人把陰性陽性丟了,不然英文本來跟其他拉丁語系一樣複雜的orz 據說古英國貴族、皇族講法文,賤民講英文;賤民喜歡化繁為簡,所以賤民語言就沒了陰性陽性。
說起來,我們講的「中文」其實是女真語言的演變;「英文」是古英國賤民語言,都是被古代皇族看不起的語言呢。語言也是會風水輪流轉的
