我們會跟同一個老師的其他授課班級交換教室，
或是班級間約好在某一個時間點讓帶來的鬧鐘響起。

也聽說過學長姐們的各種花招，裝失戀，設機關，有的沒的。

當年全校平均年齡36歲的老師們也不是省油的燈，
我們班就曾被老師騙到很偏遠的視聽教室傻等，
直到驚覺不對勁，全班開拔回教室，
老師當時得意萬分的臉，真是令我們哭笑不得，
那是老師遲了一年的回禮。

每年的愚人節，總覺得好像還聽得見三梀平行教學大樓間迴繞的鬧鐘聲。

＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊
今年，第一個愚人節惡作劇在淩晨2點多登場，
是的，王建民MLB生涯第一場開幕戰，因雨延期！
等了一個多鐘頭，等到的是臉上三條線 ><

然後現在，扁馬會面，在各個新聞頻道同時直播著，
會不會沒多久後，就看到螢幕上的跑馬燈閃著：
響應愚人節，所有論述，純屬玩笑。

馬克吐溫說過：The first of April is the day we remember
what we are the other 364 days of the year.

如果真是這樣，那愚人節的這一天，我們還是不是愚人呢？
否則怎麼提醒自己記得：一年中的其他日子我們都是愚人。

Anyway, 愚人節快樂！

達賴喇嘛流亡印度，將近半個世紀，很不幸的，在西藏紀念抗暴４９週年的同時，又發生大規模的衝突鎮壓！解放軍進入拉薩街頭，八十幾名藏人在衝突中喪生！半退休的達賴喇嘛，發表沈痛聲明，願意以永久退休，換取西藏和平。西藏問題，一直是全世界關注的焦點，也成為這次台灣總統大選的議題之一，但是對於西藏問題，身處在台灣的你，到底了解多少？我們要帶您走訪德蘭薩拉，了解這個寄人籬下，為自由、為信仰奮戰不懈的國度。

–華視新聞雜誌 97/3/24 23:00 1626集

主要內容是走訪西藏流亡政府所在地：
達蘭薩拉（Dharmsāla or Dharamsala, 意為Rest House/休息室）

螢幕上播著這個靈氣山城的景色與生活，
穿插著西藏示威暴動與中共武力鎮壓的片斷，
邊和大弟聊天邊看電視的我，
晃然間，有種時空交錯的幻覺–
2008年3月的拉薩，
1989年6月的天安門廣場，
記憶裡的畫面，重疊著眼前的畫面。

難過的同時，覺得很幸福，身為台灣人。

今年的復活節，是大選後的第一天，
765萬顆復活之心，雀躍著。

“台灣光復不能忘…”不斷播唱。

接受敗選事實，聚集我們的力量，繼續熱愛台灣：

“我再次重申 選舉是我個人的失敗，不是台灣的失敗，
　今天不要為我哭泣，聚集我們的力量，繼續熱愛台灣。

　台灣的發展從來就不是順風而行，風愈大我們愈要走，
　我們要永遠跟人民站在一起，衷心地為台灣祝福，
　我們相信人民，也相信台灣。”

My brother and his wife just welcomed their first kid into the world at 7AM this morning. I am so happy for them, and with all my heart I wish them a wonderful new life together with this little new partner. And just wait, my dear nephew, auntie is coming home to see you next week.

“Congratulations, GRANDPA Lee!”
“Bye, AUNT Lee!”

Congratulations, the “upgraded” Lee family…

＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊

As being “Aunt Lee 1.0″, I would like to send a lovely song as a blessing to the baby boy who upgrades me. (Of course, it is not written by me, haha.) And here it is, below:

VS韓國 at台中洲際棒球場

先發側投李振昌，此次賽事首次登板，首局即讓韓國三上三下，可惜經驗不足，外加隊友守備失誤，二局上讓對手單局攻下三分，三局上再攻得致勝分。主投2.1局，責失四分。（洪總：球質不錯，可是心臟不夠力 ^^）。

超長中際張誌家，6.2局好投無失分，4H/3K/1W，二次牽制一壘成功，完全封鎖韓國攻勢。2001年的老外即將歸位！

“各位球迷，張誌家快回來了，還差那麼一點點，我會繼續努力的！”- 張誌家

二局下首打者張建銘內安上壘，林哲瑄二安打回第一分，彭政閔保送，張泰山內滾，還好韓國暴傳，DP大神放假，第二分進帳。五局下一出局，韓國三壘手失誤，張建銘內野滾球上一壘，再靠野選上二壘，恰恰左外野安打扳回一分。九局下二出局二在壘，林哲瑄的不斷纏鬥緊粘著贏球的希望，也考驗著自己和所有人的心臟。雖然最後是看著那顆一壘界外飛球落進對韓國手套，我們還有這幾天來一場又一場的感動。

“我相信我們在北京再遇到他們，我們一定可以打敗他們！”- 羅國輝

其實也應該給韓國一些掌聲，這場比賽打得很拼命也很乾淨，我看到了與以往國際賽不同的韓國隊（只是不知道他們一直在笑什麼就是了）。

＊＊北京奧運8搶3資格賽 中韓之戰 賽前＊＊

＊＊中華隊5大安打+精彩三振+5大精彩守備+經典動作＊＊

• Get started. Often, once you begin, you’ll find the task is easier than you expect.

• Break your task into smaller tasks. Take one big task and break it into smaller tasks. For instance, do five math problems rather than your entire assignment.

• Work with the time you have. Don’t wait until you have time to do the entire thing. Instead, even if you only have five minutes, get started.

• Set small deadlines. After meeting each deadline, give yourself a reward. For example, an ice cream cone when you finish an hour of studying.

• Set anti-deadlines. If you don’t finish your homework by 8:00, you can’t watch your favorite TV program.

• Eliminate distractions. Turn off the TV. Don’t answer the phone.

• Ask for help. Sometimes, the reason you don’t start is because you don’t know what to do. If that’s the case, ask for help.

• Begin now. What one thing can you do right now that will move you closer to your goal?

22 Tips for Effective Deadlines　-Extracted from HERE-

• Use Parkinson’s Law – Parkinson’s Law states that tasks expand to fill the time given to them. By setting a strict deadline in advance you can cut off this expansion and focus on what is most important.

• Timebox – Set small deadlines of 60-90 minutes to work on a specific task. After the time is up you finish. This cuts procrastinating and forces you to use your time wisely.

• 80/20 – The Pareto Principle suggests that 80% of the value is contained in 20% of the input. Apply this rule to projects to focus on that critical 20% first and fill out the other 80% if you still have time.

• Project VS Deadline – The more flexible your project, the stricter your deadline. If a task has relatively little flexibility in completion a softer deadline will keep you sane. If the task can grow easily, keep a tight deadline to prevent waste.

• Break it Down – Any deadline over one day should be broken down into smaller units. Long deadlines fail to motivate if they aren’t applied to manageable units.

• Hofstadter’s Law – Basically this law states that it always takes longer than you think. A rule I’ve heard in software development is to double the time you think you need. Then add six months. Be patient and give yourself ample time for complex projects.

• Backwards Planning – Set the deadline first and then decide how you will achieve it. This approach is great when choices are abundant and projects could go on indefinitely.

• Prototype – If you are attempting something new, test out smaller versions of a project to help you decide on a final deadline. Write a 10 page e-book before your 300 page novel or try to increase your income by 10% before aiming to double it.

• Find the Weak Link – Figure out what could ruin your plans and accomplish it first. Knowing the unknown can help you format your deadlines.

• No Robot Deadlines – Robots can work without sleep, relaxation or distractions. You aren’t a robot. Don’t schedule your deadline with the expectation you can work sixteen hour days to complete it. Deathmarches aren’t healthy.

• Get Feedback – Get a realistic picture from people working with you. Giving impossible deadlines to contractors or employees will only build resentment.

• Continuous Planning – If you use a backwards planning model, you need to constantly be updating plans to fit your deadline. This means making cuts, additions or refinements so the project will fit into the expected timeframe.

• Mark Excess Baggage – Identify areas of a task or project that will be ignored if time grows short. What e-mails will you have to delete if it takes too long to empty your inbox? What features will your product lack if you need a rapid finish?

• Review – For deadlines over a month long take a weekly review to track your progress. This will help you identify methods you can use to speed up work and help you plan more efficiently for the future.

• Find Shortcuts – Almost any task or project has shortcuts you can use to save time. Is there a premade library you can use instead of building your own functions? An autoresponder to answer similar e-mails? An expert you can call to help solve a problem?

• Churn then Polish – Set a strict deadline for basic completion and then set a more comfortable deadline to enhance and polish afterwards. Often churning out the basics of a task quickly will require no more polishing afterwards than doing it slowly.

• Reminders – Post reminders of your deadlines everywhere. Creating a sense of urgency with your deadlines is necessary to keep them from getting pushed aside by distractions.

• Forward Planning – Not mutually exclusive with backwards planning, this involves planning the details of a project out before setting a deadline. Great for achieving clarity about what you are trying to accomplish before making arbitrary time limits.

• Set a Timer – Get one that beeps. Somehow the countdown of a timer appears more realistic for a ninety minute timebox than just glancing at your clock.

• Write them Down – Any deadline over a few hours needs to be written down. Otherwise it is an inclination not a goal. Having written deadlines makes them more tangible than internal decisions alone.

• Cheap/Fast/Good – Ben Casnocha in My Start Up Life mentions that you can have only have two of the three. Pick two of the cheap/fast/good dimensions before starting a project to help you prioritize.

• Be Patient – Using a deadline may seem to be the complete opposite of patience. But being patient with inflexible tasks is necessary to focus on their completion. The paradox is that the more patient you are, the more you can focus. The more you can focus the quicker the results will come!

先發投手是昨天才被告知要先發的姜建銘，主投七局無失分。

全場安打：五支（還少對手一支！）。

前四局投手戰。五局上林益全二壘打，再被隊友接連高飛球打上三壘打回本壘破蛋，1:0。七局上兩出局，蔣智賢右外野陽春蛋，2:0。八局上二在壘，代打上場的彭政閔高飛犧牲打，3:0，羅國輝3.8sec快腿跑上三壘擠回一分，4:0。九局上，再見三振，南非，拜拜~

小悶的一場比賽，主播悶，打線悶。悶到我把電視開著，邊做其他事情，邊加減觀戰。

南非倒是很HIGH：我盜我盜我盜盜盜，我們：我殺我殺我殺殺殺（高志綱：恁麥閣盜啊啦！阻殺很累耶！）。

Anyway, 還是要再說一次：北京奧運，我們來了！

目前戰績：台韓加，五勝一負。澳墨，四勝二負 三勝三負。德西非，請把握最後機會，好好逛逛台中或雲林！

小7雞排事件，持續追蹤報導。。。

早上六點，上泰順街7-11搶蘋果去，未見雞排。
下午六點，同店，雞排依舊不見。

也因此，吃了兩次小7雞腿飯團。

詞：祝驪雯　曲：韓賢光

我又站在這地方　勝利的戰場
年輕的歲月在呼喚
所有迷茫的過往　英雄的土壤
壯志和熱血又再一次激盪在我的胸膛

青天白日齊飛揚　將摯愛奉獻給理想
期待著衣錦榮歸回故鄉　千千萬萬心靈的期望
青天白日齊飛揚　壯志重伸豪情再放
期待著衣錦榮歸回故鄉　永恆不滅英雄的光芒
