Goodbye Exchanged PB battery

This afternoon, I sent my PowerBook battery to Apple Store to exchange a battery. However, I could not get a new battery immediately, the salesman said that I had to leave the battery there for about 4 to 6 weeks until the new battery arrives. Therefore, from now on, I do not have any battery in my PowerBook, and I have to wait about one and half month to get a new battery.... Sigh... Hope that I can have it back as soon as possible; otherwise, I cannot bring my PowerBook anywhere without a charging adaptor.

一根迴紋針 one red paperclip

What do you think one red paperclip can exchange for?
A man called Kyle MacDonald living in Montreal took one red paperclip and exchanged for a house. He took about an year to achieve this goal.

從小地方開始,目標放遠;小規模能成,大規模也沒問題

下雨天

從回來到現在,幾乎每一天都在下雨
前陣子常是傾盆大雨,最近幾天轉成陣雨
下雨天,不是個我喜歡的日子
但是我仍要感謝,下雨雖然讓人不想出門,但是氣溫倒還蠻舒服的
比起國外,當然是潮溼很多,不過,過了這一兩個禮拜下來也就習慣了
現在只希望天氣能夠轉好,心情也會隨之愉快
讓我也可以好好出外走走
大陽公公,請快點出面吧!
