Mid-Autumn Celebration

Since we will be very busy during the weekdays, we four celebrated the mid-autumn day tonight. We have bought some materials yesterday and we had the “hot pot” tonight.

In the afternoon, Forrest, Garson and me went to Kelin’s house. In the early, we three boys played soccer on a large grass field near Kelin’s house. About 4:00, we went back and had a short rest. Then we cooked the hot pot. And we take some photos before we had them.

Mid-Autumn Celebration(pre)

A few days later, we will have Chinese Traditional Festival, Mid-Autumn Day. In that day, Chinese family get together. And we four friends from China planned to have supper together to celebrate it. At the begining, we decided to have supper in a Chinese restruant. Later someone said he wanted have hot pot, so then we decided to have it in family. It will much cheaper to cook ourselves.

After class yesterday, we four went to a Chinese “supermarket” named Wen-Kai. It’s a tiny market for selling Chinese food and some Japanese and Korean stuff. We bought some meterial for hot pot and the mooncakes. They costed us about 80 dollars.

A Bad Feeling Today

This afternoon, we had a long speaking class. During the class, my instruction Linda let us to discuss some problems in groups. There are 12 students in my class, and we were seprated into 3 groups. In my group, I was the leader that keep the discuss going.

I did what a leader should do. I read the question to the group members and ask their idea. In one turn, it a girl’s turn. For showing polite, I always looked at the person who are talking about his or her idea. But when I looked at that girl, I felt I wanted to smile suddenly. And then a smile came to my face.

Resume Workshop

This afternoon, I attended the second resume workshop class. And this class is the first academic class I attended in Canada. I’m learning in English Language Centre now and I have classes about English writing, reading, listening and speaking everyday. Though they are helpful, they are a little boring. The reason, I think, is language is a kind of most fundational class. You will feel boring when you learning them, especially you have known it not too little before.

ATOM? RSS?

This blog is almost perfect for me to use except I don’t know how to make the entries to be outputed totally. Now, if I browse “http://ferrisliu.com/atom.xml“, I will only get the summary of my essay. I always hate to publish only summary on RSS, so I have to find out a way to output my essays completely.

This night I spent a lot of time to try, but I can’t find the choice for outputing the whole text. At last, I give up. I had post a question on V2EX, but till now, nobody answered.

新的blog建好了

经过将近两天的思考与一天的时间,终于成功的在主机上安装了Movable Type。新的blog域名为http://ferrisliu.com/。建立这个blog,主要是想在一个独立的地方写一些英文的东西。

Success!

After almost two days time trying, I run Movable Type on my new site finally. This is the first time for me to use Movable Type, so it’s very funny. Though I’ve met some problems, I made it now. The happiness now just can’t be discribed.

I bought a new domain name for this blog. In the first days, especially after I’v changed my English name, I would like to open a new blog to write something in English. My original blog Feng’s Style have been existed some time, and all of the posts on it is written in Chinese. I wouldn’t like to add any English posts on it cause it will be mess. Also I’d like to have a domain name that like my English name, not my original name, so I choose this domain “ferrisliu.com”.

I just finished installing Movable Type 4.01!

Welcome to my new blog powered by Movable Type. This is the first post on my blog and was created for me automatically when I finished the installation process. But that is ok, because I will soon be creating posts of my own!

用MT4构建blog有感

来了加拿大,换了新名字,因此想新建一个blog,来完全用英文书写。昨天注册了域名ferrisliu.com,准备在上面构建一个blog。

很早就知道了两大主流blog程序为Wordpress和Movable Type。这个blog是用Wordpress构建的,在建立的时候我学到了很多,加深了对PHP和SQL数据库的认识。于是我想在新的blog上试验一下Movable Type,一是为了新鲜,二是想看看用perl编写的cgi程序如何操纵数据库的。

购买了Flickr pro帐号

其实这是前几天的事情了。当时我正在拼命整理照相机里的照片,而且从这里Flickr的上传工具Flickr Uploder在这里居然可以正常使用了(我在出国前试过一次,无法授权帐号),而且还非常好用,于是我就一直上传。传一部分整理一部分,后来发现普通帐号只能建立3个set,便忍痛放弃了几个。看着Flickr Uploder里面说我使用了这个月上传空间的31%,心想什么时候把这个数字变成100%,看看是什么样子。
