vitamin

I bought some books on nutrition and learned that human eyes are made of vitamin A. After hours of programming or gaming, my eyes usually get tired and dry. So I bought some vitamin A pills. Then I was told vitamin A can not be metabolized without vitamen B, D, E. So I stopped taking pills and began eating more vegetables.

I also bought cook books, because I got tired of spontaneous food experiments. I downloaded a software which can remix music, together with some tutorials. I have a computer and want to make good use of it.

I need to practice my English more, since I'll apply for jobs, and write proposals or reports in future. I need to write more, and be careful about the grammar.

The only social interaction I have now is the Chinese language group, otherwise I live in my lab. Before I go back for wedding in 5 months, I need to finish a paper, attend a conference, start my thesis, apply for jobs, and also visit uncle Liu in Indiana who could give me serious financial help. I don't need money now, but will do if I can't get a job before Spring 2008. But no worry, God will provide a way. I have confidence in HIM.

After a soccer game, good food and a cup of sencha make me feel drowsy. Taking a nap in a summer Saturday afternoon sounds so comfortable..

Propose in MacDonald's

so this summer I went back to my small hometown in China. I met the girl, Ying, who I knew for a year. After one week's dating, she became my girlfriend. Then one week before I left to U.S., we went to MacDonald's,

me: let me tell you something: once I left for America, our relationship won't go up only by phone.

Ying: .. I have not thought about the future yet. Things happen too fast.

me: Having a relationship with you is great fun, but fun is not something you can keep. I want something real with you.

Ying: (after quiet for a moment) what do you want to do with me?

me: I'm thinking about marrying you.

Ying: (murmuring "I'm thinking about marrying you", flushed)
(after a while) "why do want to marry?"

me: (surprised by the question) because I want to be stable, yes I need stability in my life.

(quiet)

Ying: I'm not sure ..

me: (upset, unhappiness, sadness, and disappointment appear on my face) ..

Ying: (surprised by my reaction) ok, I've decided, tomorrow we go to get the marriage certificate. Now you can be happy again!


We did go. But I need a status affidavit from Minnesota state.
