Rate My Life Quiz - How Good Is Your Life?
I found a "Rate My Life Quiz" (How Good Is Your Life?), and I took it. I'd say the final score is lower than what I expected before taking the Quiz...Well, here is the results:
Your Life Analysis:
Life: Your life rating is a score of the sum total of your life, and accounts for how satisfied, successful, balanced, capable, valuable, and happy you are. The quiz attempts to put a number on the summation of all of these things, based on your answers. Your life score leaves room for improvement. You can make changes to improve your trouble areas, and this will bring you greater satisfaction. Focus on your weakest points and set about to change them. Do not delay your happiness and success. (Read more on improving your life)
Mind: Your mind rating is a score of your mind's clarity, ability, and health. Higher scores indicate an advancement in knowledge, clear and capable thinking, high mental health, and pure thought free of interference. Your mind score is not bad, but could be improved upon. Your mental health is not weak, but you are not achieving full mental clarity and function. Learn how to unclutter your mind. Keep learning, keep improving, continue moving forward.
Body: Your body rating measures your body's health, fitness, and general wellness. A healthy body contributes to a happy life, however many of us are lacking in this area. You have an excellent body score, which means you are incredibly focused on maintaining a healthy lifestyle. Continue in that focus, and your body will remain healthy and strong.
Spirit: Your spirit rating seeks to capture in a number that elusive quality which is found in your faith, your attitude, and your philosophy on life. A higher score indicates a greater sense of inner peace and balance. You seem to be lacking in spirit. Improve your score by refining your beliefs and searching for answers to philosophical questions. Consider new belief systems if your current beliefs are not rewarding you.
Friends/Family: Your friends and family rating measures your relationships with those around you, and is based on how large, healthy, and dependable your social network is. You scored at the very low end for friends and family. This means that your social network is weak and not functioning. Consider re-establishing old bonds as you work on forging new ones. You will be greatly rewarded in return. Try using MeetUp.com to find people near you who share your interests.
Love: Your love rating is a measure of your current romantic situation. Sharing your heart with another person is one of life's most glorious, terrifying, rewarding experiences. Your love score is fairly average. Things could be worse, and thankfully they aren't. But you must work to improve this area, turn an average score into a great score.
Finance: Your finance rating is a score that rates your current financial health and stability. You have a rather good financial score, which is not all that common these days. Keep doing what works. Avoid common pitfalls and save for the future. You will be glad you did.

New shining shoes
Bought two pairs of shoes today from Marshalls - One pair of running shoes, Reebok Premiere Lite II; and one pair of Dockers proStyle Perspective. Both of them were bought at good deals, and I love them!
The RBK Lite II is last year's model, Reebok has Running Lite III now. I don't really care about the "models". Shoes are shoes - They need to be comfortable and looking great. Lite II is REALLY light and thin. I like running shoes for casual use. Oh, and the funny thing is, the Lite II has "速度" (speed) printed at the rear - That's right, Chinese! It's a little weird, and I usaually don't like cloth with Chinese printed. I was looking for a pair of running shoes for gym exercise. Since it was on sale, I decided to give it a try. I don't know what the designers were thinking when they designed the shoes - they must have believed it was cool...
Dockers Perspective is even better - Shining and stylish. I was looking for a new pair of business shoes, and I finally found them. The best thing about it is its cushion. I used to hate business shoes because they kill my feet at the end of the day. The more "professional" the shoe looks, the worse one will feel about his feet after walking in the office all day long. Style doesn't really alway come with comfort, but I think the Perspective really align the two together...see pictures for more details. =)
San Francisco Air Show and Ferrari Show
Went to San Francisco Air Show on Oct 9th, which was part of San Franciso October Festivals, We were very lucky to run into the Ferrari Show in Washington Square Park. When I said "Ferrari Show", I really mean it. It's not like some Auto Show that you merely see one or two hot shot cars that are parked on the stage and are 20 feet away from you. In this kind of show, you can really get close to the cars and sneak out some details! Yeah, that's right! - Check out the pictures in my album. It was the 1st time ever for me to see so many Ferrari cars at once. It was an amazing experience. I was too busy to post the pictures I took on that day, and it's unbelieable that I almost forgot about it until today.
Blue Angle was good. But I realized my point-and-shoot camera was not good enough for Air Shows afterwards. The zoom was too little, and the striking sound of jet engines were totally missed out when one only sees the pictures. You have to be there to experience it. Again, it was my 1st Air Show experience. Before that day, I hope there would be an Air Force base opened to the public to see the actual jet fighters. I know it was the case for some Air Shows happended in Michigan a few years ago, and my parents went to see that. It was not the case, but I was very happy anyways.

从Chinaren抄来的笑话（爆笑）
1.有两个女生到法国留学，刚到巴黎，在街上看到一个黑人从对面走来，一个对另一 个说“真黑。”那个黑人马上走到她们面前说了一句，“就你白！”
2.我朋友一再告戒我，在国外不要乱说中文。我问为什幺？他说：“他碰到过外国人 懂中文的事，已经有好几次了。”他和朋友在麦当劳吃东西聊天，正说着湖南人的话 题，因为朋友是湖南人，结果有个德国mm在边上插了一句，说：“我知道湖南人，很 好，我看过一本书。”我朋友当时吓得楞了好几秒，没回过神。他从此以后都不在外 说中文了，哈哈！
3.更强的是我一个印度同学，一次有人问他，“听说你会说中国话，是幺？”那印度人 立刻用中国话说：“你有毛病幺？你看不出我是印度人幺？我不会讲中国话。”立马抽 丫的！
4.在法兰克福的地铁上，对面坐了个高个儿，俺跟同伴随口说了一句，“那家伙腿可 真长啊……”没想到那老外居然问俺：“你有多高？”吓了俺一跳，后来俺们还用中文聊了会天。他说，“你们中国人天不怕，天不怕，就怕洋鬼子开口说中国话，哈哈哈……” 最后道别时，那个家伙居然还是用上海话说了一句“再会”，俺当时差点晕倒在地……
5.我朋友的一件真事：朋友一次到东京出差，在一个高级大厦的电梯里看到一个金发碧眼穿着暴露的女郎走了进来。我这位朋友就小声问旁边的同事：“这是不是鸡啊？” 谁料那个女郎猛的一回头用标准的京片子说：你丫说谁呢？小样儿！找抽吧？”
6.俺一同事（MM）在美国某机场，她和另外一位（也是MM）看见前面走着一位白人老奶奶，巨肥硕那种的。俩MM在后面用上海话说：“也不知道吃什幺能吃得这幺胖？”白人老奶奶回头，用上海话答曰“吃饭啊！”
7.我们一同学，在纽约，问路，一个巨pp的金发美女，很热心，还会中文，遂带着他走了一段，聊天，那同学夸奖说，你中文说的真好；那mm的回答巨强，说纽约就是中国人的殖民地，不会中文行幺！哈哈
8.上次我老妈坐地铁去前门结果睡着了到站时猛然惊醒随口说了句：是前门吗？旁边一个外国小伙子利马点头说：是前门！于是老妈下车……
9.有一次和老爸在法国才好笑，我们和4各人在电梯里，然后我跟老爸说了句，“老外好高”，那几个人告诉在法国我才是老外，现在想起来当 时真是丢人。还在在法国，我在超市里找面包，嘴里不停地在说面包，面包，结果旁边一个人告诉我“面包在那边”，我还说了句“谢谢”。在日内瓦吃饭的时候， 竟然有老外和我说广东话，而且还很标准，晕啊～
10.我朋友在电梯里碰到一个老外.那老外衬衫上三个扣子没扣.我朋友就跟她朋友说:“那老外胸毛很性感“.那老外立刻回以中文:“谢谢“.
11.和朋友在一家韩国餐馆吃饭，服务生有西瓜太郎一样的头发，被我们评论了半天，最恐怖的是在那人给我们上菜的时候还肆无忌惮的说，n 次之后，估计那人忍无可忍了，我们的炉子灭了，叫他给点火，那男人用标准的中文说“小心火，慢慢吃”，当时我们三个人疯了，楞是没听懂！他有用英语说了一 遍，我们才缓过神来，大惊！完全无语！这顿饭的后半部分都没怎幺说话，被吓的！要知道我们在那家吃到了vip，这个过程中都不知道说了多少乱七八糟的啊！ 晕死！
12.还有一次是统计课，老师教limit，下边一同学估计是没听清楚，顺口问了一句“什幺？”，老师说：“极限啊！”同学惊，我不 解。便问旁边的人：“极限什幺意思？没听过这个词，怎幺拚？”我同位也疯了，大吼“中国话你也听不懂了，limit极限啊！”我恍然大悟状。从此洗心革 面，再不敢在这个金发大胡子的课上胡说八道。
12.我一朋友在国外，当时坐地铁，站在风口太冷，就很谨慎小心的遛到旁边一外国男生的旁边，让他挡风，然后，就听那哥们说，“挺聪明的嘛！”当时她就傻了。
13.还有一个老外，楞是用标准的中文告诉我说，他最欣赏中国人在冬天的一个习惯，烫脚，好舒服啊。
14.我朋友在南大看到一非洲老外：“hello，你妈是猴儿。”老外用纯正的天津话说：
“你妈是大猩猩！”
15.那天我在这里灌水，发现好多人看帖都不回帖，心里面极不舒服，顺口说了一句
“***，不回帖的肯定是洋鬼子！（因为不懂中文）”，碰巧，我身边坐着个美国佬，他回头向我说了一句很流利的中文“朋友，你说错了，我们洋鬼子看帖都回，因为我们洋鬼子和你们都是人，是人就会回帖的，这叫人性！只有没有人性的人才不会回帖！”
2.我朋友一再告戒我，在国外不要乱说中文。我问为什幺？他说：“他碰到过外国人 懂中文的事，已经有好几次了。”他和朋友在麦当劳吃东西聊天，正说着湖南人的话 题，因为朋友是湖南人，结果有个德国mm在边上插了一句，说：“我知道湖南人，很 好，我看过一本书。”我朋友当时吓得楞了好几秒，没回过神。他从此以后都不在外 说中文了，哈哈！

Brilliant Thoughts!
I forgot where I found this article, but this person definitely has his brilliant view of Steve Jobs...Whether it is (will be) true or not, Motorola is truly the looser of this iPhone deal...Great thoughts!
