I've never thought how important Evernote is for me, until now. The troublesome "Unable to Sync" issue keeps showing up; all files on Evernote are simply not accessible. What ....?  I checked my iPhone's network connection, made sure I can use google, quitted the Evernote and relaunched it. No, it didn't work. Then I opened my Mac Pro; the Evernote didn't work, either. I upgraded it but still didn't work. 
Something on Evernote's Server Side must have gone wrong. 

I am currently taking the course "Learning how to learn" on Coursera and found it extremely useful, and I'd like to share my notes with you (will come out in February). 

When I checked my debit card account just now, I found there is a weird "Kindle Unlimited" charge. I have never used a real Kindle E-reader, and the only purchase I made related to Kindle is an e-book, which is less than 5 bucks, and I simply treated it like a pdf file.

This post is written in Chinese. Maybe I will switch it to English, or new a post written in English later. (find another way to handle this: I will first write something in either Chinese or English, and translate it into another later)  这儿就是一些随手小记，不学术，只是待以后慢慢回味，找到那条成长的轨迹。不喜勿看，不喜勿喷。－－09/07/2015

09/07/2015 00:54am --The Reason Why the Post "thoughts" Here
今天晚上准备做stats243的作业之时，发现要求用knitr。无知的我默默wikipedia它，无意发现下面的reference里是中国人。出于好奇，搜了一下此人，遂发现该网站：http://yihui.name。
感觉很棒，顺着里面的各种链接，看了几个小时，想了很多东西。我想慢慢的我也要开始maintain我的blog了吧。把快乐喜悦和知识与感兴趣的人分享大抵是一件令人振奋的事。

​I realized that one and a half months have passed since I thought I would start writing blogs/thoughts, and actually I haven't written anything. Though I do want to write down lots of thoughts and share with you. Life is so busy, working on several projects is hard, as well as preparing for graduate applications. Well, now, I won't expect I will write anything(thoughts) before I've done graduate schools applications (I might write some academic stuffs which are more or less related to my daily study/research life).

下午学习的间隙无意中又看了看high school musical。就想到，很多时候当你兴高采烈和别人谈论一个东西，比如HSM，别人甚至不知道。即使你觉得它是那么有名，是你童年的回忆。但是想想，要不是那年老爸走进家门，带了一张HSM的DVD。那时 我只有它，看了一遍又一遍，好喜欢。 那个年代选择就那么多（虽然比起父辈，选择已经多了太多），自己价值观的建立以及喜好 除了自己的尚不成熟的过滤与筛选，似乎有很多来自礼物的影响了。别人送你了一本书，一张唱片，一张影碟。漫长的童年时光总有时间去细细品味。没有什么的时候，便什么都很珍惜。

Topics I would like to explore later:
-Functionalities of Friends cycle(Tencent Wechat), LinkedIn, Weibo, QQ Zones(Tencent QQ), Facebook, and even Twitter, Instagram, emails. Why we need/use (all of) them?            (Personally, I think a major difference between Chinese and foreigners is how they take advantages of social networks.)

​-Extraversion and Introversion, Outgoing person and Shy person.
