Packing Up Christmas / New Years Eve at Home

Today Harry and I packed up all our Christmas stuff inside the house. We still have lights on the house. Those will come down next weekend. I like to start off the new year fresh and new. We had gotten so use to all our Christmas decorations since they have been up since Thanksgiving it was strange to see our house without them.

For New Years Eve we tired to get a small group together to hang at our place but that never happened. So Harry and I had a Star Trek Marathon. We watched three episodes of Deep Space Nine and from 11:30pm to 12:30am we watched Star Trek The Next Generation to ring in the new year. We had a great time.

So much for time off!!!

Today was to be my second day off of my four day weekend. Well I got a call from one of my editors informing me that she couldn't be the media drives to mount. Harry and I were just about to go shopping with our Christmas gift cards so we stopped by to check it out. Well it looked at first that the entire Unity (hard drives) crashed and everything was gone. I started to painc.. that would take us weeks to re-digitize all the media and in the middle of online would be horrible. Luckily I managed to restart the system and everything seemed to be okay.

After my small panic attack we went shopping and I went a litle crazy buying 75% off Christmas stuff. I spent well over my $50 gift certificate, but it was fun.

say bye-bye to 2007
and
hellooo to 2008! :)

Four Day Weekend!!!

Today I start my four day weekend. I can't remember when I had four days off in a row.. I guess it was comic con this past July. Today I did nothing all day long and it was great. Watched TV, played on the Computer, talked with friends online, hung out with Harry and Daisy... it was great.

Pat on the Back

I normally don't give myself a pat on the back.. but last night I was at work till 1am working on the unity/avid problems. We have five avids at work (for those who don't know what Avid is, it is the editing system that we use to cut out show and Unity is the hard drive system) anyways we have had issues all season with the avids crashing and scanning drives (which takes up alot of time of the editors) so I spent yesterday trying to work out the bugs and I finally got all the systems up and running with no issues at all....nothing.. zero probelms. I am very proud of myself at getting this done.. this is a huge deal and should make everyones (the editors and mine) life much easier. Just wanted to brag for a moment. :)

若林正丈讀友會

《若林正丈教授讀友會》 跨界與跨世代的對話：找尋台灣意識新座標
　
若林正丈（1949年—）出生於日本長野縣，是政治學者，東京大學教授，長久以來研究台灣政治及台灣近代史，著作甚多。

在台灣政黨輪替後的今天，台灣意識似乎成了台灣政治裡一股強大的伏流，牽引著每個時代脈絡的走向，卻也激起四濺的洶湧波濤。許多人驚愕於眼前高漲的台灣主體意識，但卻看不到它的過去。仔細扒梳台灣意識的每個歷史脈絡，將是現代每個台灣人理解當前政治衝突的起點。本活動希望透過東亞史與台灣史的交會，為台灣意識尋找一個新座標，讓我們得以重新理解、丈量台灣意識的過去與現在。

從《台灣:分裂國家與民主化》、《台灣抗日運動史研究》到《跨界的台灣史研究-與東亞史的交錯》，若林正丈教授將帶領著我們一路追溯台灣意識的每個足跡。

More Gifts and Future Plans

Today we finally got the Christmas presents from Harry's best friend Sandra. She sent them off over two weeks ago and we were afraid something had happened to them.. but luckily they arrived this morning. Also in the afternoon Harry and I spoke with Harry's sister Gerda and her boyfriend Bernd about there plans to come visit for three week at the end of July, beginning August. They are coming for our commitment ceremony and staying for a vacation. Talking to them today made me realize that our ceremony is not too far off.. eight months will be here in no time.. have to start making plans.

Working Over the Holidays

One bad thing about being a freelance post production supervisor is that I don't get holiday pay. When holidays come up and the offices close you are pretty much out of luck. My current job is down from Dec. 22 to Jan 1st. Though the time off would have been great I really do need to continue to make money so I asked if I could come in during the holidays. Luckily I was able to work four days this (Christmas) week and three days the following (New Years) week. It's not a full five days a week but it's better then nothing.

Home Design Ideas

With a little creativity, you can turn simple materials into spectacular ornaments and tools. Betcha never thought of that...

Christmas Day

Today Harry and I woke up early so we could open our gifts before we had to get on the road. Harry and I were really good this year so Santa brought us lots of goodies. I know Harry was really excited to get Mac OS X Leopard and iLife. I was excited to get my very hard to find British Harry Potter and Doctor Who action figures. It was a very geeky Christmas at our house.

Around 11:30 we headed to my mom's for lunch and gift exchange. The past few years have been a bit crazy at my Mom's (my grandmother's dog and Daisy don't get along) so I really wasn't in the mood for the craziness this year. Luckily when we got there we found out that my Grandmother's dog Baby was not there so things started off well. Instead of the traditional spaghetti lunch that mom normally makes she decided to go with a breakfast instead (of course no knew this and we all eat breakfast beforehand). Anyways.. Harry and I had some of the breakfast, which was very good then we opened presents. The past few years my mom has been cutting back on what she would get us for Christmas. It use to be ten or so presents each now it's one or two. This year Mom and Chuck gave Harry and I some money to buy us a washer and dryer (which we still haven't found). So we knew we wouldn't have anything under the tree. She did buy us both several shirts just so we could open a gift. All in all a pretty good afternoon at mom's.

Around 4 we headed to Dad for a Turkey dinner and gift exchange with Dad, Mike and sister-in-law Lora. Dinner was fantastic. Everyone was very delicious.. Dad really out did himself this year. After dinner we started to open gifts.. unlike Mom's everyone had about ten to fifteen gifts each. It was a fun time. Got some cool t-shirts, action figures and more geeky stuff.

All in All is was a great Christmas, alot of driving which took it's toll on me but it was a great time had by all... MERRY CHRISTMAS

Today Harry, Dad and I went over to my cousin's Renee's house. We have spent Christmas Eve with them the past few years. It's always good to see my Dad's side of the family. We try and see at much of them as possible since I found them only a few years ago.

We got there a little early to we could help in making Christmas cookies. When the got there the kids were well into it so we tried to help out were we could. It was alot of fun making cookies with the kids.

After cookies I helped with Dinner, which turned out to be fantastic. After dinner we opened presents and everyone had a great time.

Around 7:30pm Harry, Dad and I left the festivities because we still had to drive Dad home. Harry and I finally got home around 11 and we were exhausted and went right to bed.

Picking up Dad

Today Harry and I drove out to Corona to visit my Dad. Also I found out that he would be coming back home with us so we could take him to our family Christmas Eve party. This was the original plan but then I had heard it had changed and that my brother was going to take him to our Uncle Wally's house who would then bring him to the party. Well I guess plans change again and when I called my Dad right before we were to visit he, he informed me of the changes... it wasn't a big deal Harry and I planned to do "our" Christmas present opening on Christmas Eve morning but with Dad there plans had to change.

關不住的歌聲－Danny Boy

黃守禮為槍決前的難友高歌



黃守禮的二哥黃守義在228大屠殺時唸建中高二，因外出買早點被中國兵打死。

他在清鄉白色恐怖的1950年代，是台北工業學校的學生，也莫名被捕，關在保安司令部。愛唱歌的黃守禮借著歌聲為難友打氣，日文歌的「幌馬車之歌」是送別難友的歌曲，英文哥的"Danny Boy"則是思念家鄉老母親的等待，隔壁囚房的台大學生于凱，是一位隻身從山東來台的流亡學生，在即將被槍決前，他懇求黃守禮為他唱"Danny Boy"，想到遠在東北老家的母親，不知兒子將在台灣被槍決，猶苦苦守候家門…

歌罷，黃守禮伸手伸過牆隙，向于凱加油致意，這時他才驚覺于凱的雙手十指，沒有半片指甲留存著…


用行動疼惜台灣

Aries: 之前都以為知道228受難者的故事，這次因「再見．蔣總統 反共．民主．台灣路」在台中市科博館展出，因導覽解說的關係，自己又再做一次功課，用心閱讀展場的資料

每次導覽到這位受難者的故事時，參觀者都眼框泛紅，自己也覺得哽咽…

228是一個代表年輕人的數字，1947年的228大屠殺，罹難者多是青年學子或社會青壯菁英

228大屠殺造成難以估算的家庭遭受迫害，留下許多228母親與小孩，受難者家屬真正的煎熬與痛苦才開始而已…

228不只是罹難家屬的228，而是台灣全體國人的228，228造成台灣人政治性格上的大轉變，長輩都會告誡晚輩「飯可以亂吃、話不可以亂講、政治更是不能碰」，政治變成台灣人的禁忌…

Today is two of my friends Birthdays. First Michael and I have known each other for many many years. We met online in a Star Trek chat room and became fast friends.

He is about to be sent to Iraq.. we wish him the best of luck and Happy Birthday Michael

My other friend Shaun is a great guy. We meet through a Star Trek group. Shaun and I are so much alike in the TV/Movies viewing. We are both uber geeks and love it. Again like Michael we don't get to see each other as much as we would like but we enjoy the time we do hang out together. Happy Birthday Shaun.
