Blogger beta

This place looked a little bit barren. I have been waiting for the updating of this blog to blogger beta version for some time. But it hasn't happen yet. According to the blogger website, the upgrade will take place step by step among the existing blogs, unless you start by creating a new one.

So I don't know how long I have to wait. I don' t want to create a new blog, because I want to keep this domain name which is easy for me to remember. And I also don't want to put too much efforts into this place until the upgrade is done. Just want to avoid the trouble of editing templates or adding tags all over again. Maybe I'll do some serious blogging here after the upgrade is done.

Dissertation pressure

The pressure of the dissertation is all over me now, since there are only more than 3 weeks left before the 15 Sep. deadline. Furthermore, I have already booked the ticket of 13 Sep. to China, so the deadline is practically 12 Sep. for me.

Although the deadline is coming, I am still in the stage of downloading data and choosing from methodologies, which is very important for our master of science dissertation. I always have some problems with concentration before the deadline and have wasted too much time on those movies and tv series. Shame on me!

No matter what's going on, I still cannot help feeling excited about the thought of going back home after this one long year. I miss everything in China, friends, family, especially the Chinese foods. But before that, let me focus on getting over with the dissertation first.

Old blogger, new blog

Actually, this is not my first "blogger" blog. I set up my first blog here 3 years ago, only to find out later that it cannot be accessed in China.

The situation seems to have changed recently. Besides my Chinese blog, I have always wanted an English one. So I decide to set it up here. Hope this time it will last.
