As you can see, my hair grows long again. Need to cut my hair some time. Also I am thinking about the new hair style lately, because I can't shave hair as short as I used to, which is too short for the military. Suppose to try some new hair style these few weeks. Therefore, don't be too surprised, when you see me with a new hair style. ^^y

Need to Have Hair-cut

Bruise on the Left Leg
This is resulted by a slide in the softball game few days ago. It's so hurt and swollen right away. It's still hurt now, when I touch it. Anyway, it's much better. Same as my body. Therefore, I should start to exercise soon, before I got too lazy again.

Life Update
Finally I have day off again and it's from 2/20~28.
As usual, I rode the bike home and only took one-hour riding, which is the new record. Probably it's because I passed more traffic lights without stopping! :p
I felt pretty sore, when I got home. I suppose it's due to the softball games that I played on 2/19. My last baseball game is 5 years ago. It's fun to play again, though this time is softball. I played the 2nd baseman. I cought two pop-up balls in the 2nd game. I was so surprised, because pop-up ball is what I always fear the most. Beside of the 2 games I played, I was the judges of the other two games. We only have one judge at one time, so sometimes it's hard to judge it's safe or out. Anyway, it's not too bad for my first time as the judge.
By the way, we have many competitions during the Spring Vacation in the military, and the softball game is one of them. It's fun and nervous, because we don't want to lose.

Exciting News
1/26 Yung-Jan Chan（詹永然） and Chia-Jung Chuang（莊佳容）of Taiwan have their first "Grand Slam" final in the women's double of Australian Open. I'm still very happy for them, though they don't win the title at the end. I accidentally watched their quarter-final match, which they totally dominated with 6-0, 6-0 against USA's Ashley Harkleroad and Russia's Galina Voskoboeva. It's already the best performance of Taiwan tennis players in the Grand Slam. I was not sure whether they were too good or the opponents were just not focused enough. Anyway, I feel they play surprisingly well.
Then it came to the semi-final against Zi Yan（晏紫）and Jie Zheng（鄭潔）of China, the No.2 seed of Australian Open and 2 Grand Slam titles 2006, including Austrlian title. They kept playing great and won over the match with 6-3, 6-4. They were defeated by that pair in the final of Asian Games last month, but had a quick revenge.
Finally it came to the final. We couldn't help thinking they might have a chance to be the champs, though I believe nobody even thought they could go this far in the beginning. Anyway, I just felt like cheering for them and were very happy they did show their toughness and potential to be great players in the future. Beside of the great game they play, I am surprised by the fluent English they speak. I guess I need to work on my English, or it gonna get worse.
One reason I want them to win is the more they win, the more money they would get. It's rare that the enterprises in Taiwan would sponsor tennis players, especially when they were not famous. However, tennis costs a player a lot. Not only the rackets, and dresses, but also training expenses, transportation to tournaments and accomodations, are much more than a normal family can sustain. Those two players are already the top players of Taiwan, but still don't have enough sponsors to support them, no need to mention the rest of the players. The tennis players of Taiwan play excellently well since the Asian Games in December. Hopefully there would be more sponsors to the tennis to help the players have a better chance to climb to the top. Of course, it's not tennis that has the financial problem. All sports have the financial issues. Therefore, it's not a problem that can be solved in one day, and I really don't have answer for this. Maybe this is my new "Systems Thinking" quiz to find out how the reality is created and how we can change it.
P.S. I don't feel that excited after the match of Date v.s. Graf in Wimbledon. Date used to be the best player of Japan and my favorite player, while Graf was the No.1 player in the world. Really enjoy the three games of Chan and Chuang, and wish they can have a better performance in the matches this year and no need to borrow or sell a car to have enough money to play in one tourament.

When I Have Days Off
I have 9.5 days off each month, which is combined with 6 days, 1.5 days, 1 day, and 1 day. The 6- day-off would start from 7AM Sunday morning till 9PM Friday night. I am always the busiest in the beginning and end of every month, so I can't schedule the 6-day-off that time. As for the rest day off, I can choose any time, except Saturedays, the day nobody is allowed to take day off.
There is one senior, who would do my duty when I am in day off. I would do his, when he is in day off. Therefore, we can't have day off at the same during the weekdays. He would choose when he would like to have day off first, before I can choose. Anyway, he is going to be retired from the service in April and teach me a lot of things, so it's fine with me. I don't do much in the day off, so I am fine with that.
By the way, the Chinese New Year would happen in February. Therefore, it's a special case -- I would have 9 day off from 2/20~28. The last half day would move to March. I would probably go back to school to have some classes in 2/26~2/27, because the new semester starts in 2/26. Whoever have Showing Young's classes next semester, I would see you there. Exciting to go back to the classroom!
