  • 36 Hours...

    That's how long it takes to see what Jacky is all about.

    Ladies and gentelmen, I've failed again.. >_<;;


  • No!

    I bring symphony to the dark

    I bring life to the earth

    I bring stares to the lost

    I bring ponder to the curious

    I bring silence to the moment

    I bring sorrow to the fallen

    I bring regrets from yesterday

    I bring hopes for tomorrow

    Then I will bring rainbow after the sun

    Remember where it begins,

    and where it ends.

  • 最近比較不常寫中文。不過既然這篇是有關台灣方面的的問題﹐加上自己又無聊讀了些有的沒的新聞。所以有耐心的就看下去吧﹗

    其實就是阿扁嘛~ 倒扁也好﹐挺扁也罷。我自認自己對各種政治不甚了解﹐也沒去關心﹔只是在看了幾則新聞後心中實有不滿。偶有話要叟﹗

    我們從小在各個不同環境下長大﹐在這成長過程中我們慢慢學會去分辨是非﹐善惡對錯。譬如﹐小時候多數的孩子會覺得警察是絕對正義的﹔而他們在追打的逃犯總是該死的壞人。

    長大後﹐我們開始了解﹐其實這個社會所帶給我們的許多酸甜苦辣其實很少能夠以太嚴苛的角度去評論是非對錯。我們依賴著經驗及知識來彌補﹐更正﹐及提供我們對許多事情所需要做的決定。

    然而﹐今天在電視前﹐報紙上﹐網上﹐甚至是MARINA前﹐盡是看到些紅布倒扁或是綠色挺扁群眾。要嘛就這邊要嘛就那邊﹐不然你就是“無聲群” ﹐靠邊站。好像全世界不是倒扁就是挺扁﹐不知道不懂不在乎不出聲的人的話就沒什麼可聽性。

    老子有道﹕“天下皆知美之為美,斯惡矣;皆知善之為善,斯不善矣。
      故有無相生,難易相成,長短相形,高下相傾,音聲相和,前後相隨……

    在這世界上﹐有對就有錯﹔有醜及有美。一切只因比較而衍生出正面及反面。

    老子又道﹕“道可道,非常道。”

    意思說﹐如果是常人所能理解判定且解說之道﹐則此道非真道也。

    我想說的是﹐在這個民主文明的現代社會﹐我們是否常常只看到問題的表面而去採取其反面的改正措施﹖

    ”道可道,非常道。” 。。。 如果今天我們看到錯的事物而去尋找它們反面的因素﹐是否就能解決這個問題﹖其實不然﹐我認為﹐許多人善於辨別是非﹐但乏於探循真理。之所以有正及有惡﹔有對就有錯﹐並不代表選擇哪一邊就是對﹐或錯的。那並非真道。反之﹐我們因該去探巡那“對” 與“錯” 的中間而決定“適當” 或“不適當” 的行動和反應。

    倒扁的人說﹕”選前年收入$14000USD
    ﹐選後$12000。韓國從$7000USD到現在$12000USD
    ﹐你說是誰的錯﹖“

    他有錯。老百姓努力賺錢養家活口﹔換來的是一次又一次的經濟衰懈﹐貪污受賄包庇親人什麼一大堆。不怪政府怪誰﹖可是罷了總統又能怎樣呢﹖整個政府體系就是這樣﹐當初用民選投票時就是他當選﹐現在你抗議示威﹐提高了你的聲音使全世界都知道你們的不滿。不過你的聲音被聽到了對你的未來生活有多大的幫助﹖

    挺扁的說倒扁的無理取鬧。有小孩不帶﹐有工作不去﹐連北一女都罷課。說倒扁行動是台灣會亂的理由。

    但是如果今天阿扁沒錯的話那幾百萬人遊行是都吃飽沒事幹嗎﹖你認為阿扁也是人﹐人總有人的短處。可是﹐大家今天用刻薄的眼光來看待他不是因為他是個路人甲﹔而是總統。在我家﹐老爸代表我家人﹔在台灣﹐阿扁代表全台灣。想要有個太平盛世而不對敗壞的政府體系出點聲音做點什麼的太難了吧﹖

    雖然這件事並不是大到什麼地步﹐只是連續看了許多篇新聞都是倒這個挺那個。不禁令想起我自己。我花了許多時間精力去尋找” 絕對“的事物﹔只發現” 絕對沒有絕對﹔NEVER
    SAY NEVER “真的是令人玩味的字眼。我們花了許多時間力氣去捕捉我們要的東西﹐但常常就是覺得少了什麼﹔其實我覺得就是因為我們自己也知道到最後根本就不曾相信過我們真正要的是我們要的﹔我們覺得是絕對的就是絕對的。許多的快樂只會帶來空虛﹔許多的信念也都變成了怨念。(請別誤會﹐並不一定是說大家﹐是說我自己。。。)

    說了那麼多﹐當然覺得自己不太有資格去講這些有的沒的。我還在學習﹐也還在成長。在許多方面我經常妄下定論﹐包括這篇﹔不過﹐我真的覺得做人還是要不斷尋找下一個問題﹔而不是一個問題的答案。這個世界上應該是沒有所為的真理﹔正所謂“無” 為初始﹔“有” 為根本﹐其實是一樣的東西。不過在這中間我們是不是應該捨棄有與無的觀念來看看我們周遭的事物﹖

    與大家共勉﹗

  • Bored again, this picture makes me happy!!

  • Bored...

    then

    I used to think education was bullshit. I've always thought colllege was only one mere  life-dragging process for those who haven't found their dreams or spoke their minds. All these students including myself are nothing more than prisoners who are locked behind our pre-defined societal and ethical values. It seemed like the fortunate "us" were forced to endure all these pain for something so vivid such as our future.

    I don't know when this happened, butl now I realize education is actually very important. It is the door to enlightment of our lives. It helps greatly for us to think differently and act as special individuals.

    It isn't enough for anyone to have great thoughts and visions. So what if you think you can do this or that? I think for anyone to appreciate and understand you and many many other things in the world, you'll need to put your visions into reality. In doing that, education plays a very important role.

    For example, I tried to draw some random girl; I had this vision in my head, but the outcome was...well, nothing like it. Through the help of Photoshop, I tried to make it closer to what I envisioned, only came up with a cheap alteration. 

    It takes skill to master whatever techniques that you need to express what you have in mind. That's probably why I envy the great artists around me. Great writers, great musicians, speakers, actors, doctors, athletes, or even salesmen...or whatever profession that may be inspirational. These people exhaust their possiblities to convey their mind into forms which we can see, hear, touch, or feel.

    And skill takes talents, time, and opportunities. We have the first two, but we often take them for granted and ignore the last.

    College, or education in all is(was) our opportunity. I'm on the edge of losing it and now I'm panicking.

    Anyway, excuse my blaberings...I'm pretty tired now as I just finished my 15 pages or so project reports. It's beautiful though, it was the first time I cherished my "homework projects"... like I learned something.

    I was telling my lil brother the other day while I was teaching him simple English vocabs, "you know Johnny, I'm teaching you all these but you can't seem to focus. That will only be your loss. If you learn these words, they are yours, nobody can take these away from you. These will become your ability and knowledge, and knowledge is power." I felt like I was talking to myself.

    Uh...well, I guess I need some sleep, had too much to drink...good night suckers.

  • Wow, just when you thought Nike is getting more desperate on the retro sneakers department, they suddenly decided to ruin the whole Jordan retro line...

    AIR JORDAN III

    +

    AIR JORDAN IV

    +

    AIR JORDAN V

    +

    AIR JORDAN VI

    =

    AIR JORDAN WTF

    It's got that cement print of AJ III, triangle lace strap of AJ IV, clear mesh/lace lock of AJ V, the hyped up patent leather upper and the infamous tongue of AJ VI!!!

    Why spend the extra money to buy III, IV, V, and VI? try me!

    What's with the green? Oh, and don't forget the "laser" prints on the linings, it's the newest thing!

    I don't know what it's saying on the cement print but it definitly looks like shit to me.

    Why the canvas strap? Spike Lee is cool but he wasn't in the Jordan VI ad campaign... (or is he?) All in all, this is definitely a "I DON'T KNOW MAN!" kind of production.

    A sample shown here, scheduled to release in 2007, and I hope it will stay a sample. PLEASE just retro the classic colorways, just use red/black/white/cement and they'll sell!

    ...I don't know man. Being in a Business major I'd figure that most of the Jordan retro segmented consumers are paying big bills for nostalgic reasons. For me, it's that and the scarcity, which most sneaker heads are in for. But damn, this shoe has almost every classic essense cut from every classic Jordans, which in result produced a classic piece of hot, smoking TRASH.

    Well, this is just my initial feel to this; innovative? yes, desperate? maybe so.

    We'll see how it does next year; I should hold on to my I's for now, just in case their value go sky high post release of this monster shoe.

  • Well, since another camping trip is planned and I don't want others to perceive me as some camping maniac so I'll just make a little update in between.

    First and foremost, where the fuck is my brother? Specialist Tom "Huang-Yi" Cheng was supposed to be back in the FC Domain, but till this day he is nowhere to be seen, heard, or even e-mailed. Well thanks to my sister Jenny, who enjoyed watching movies, we have finally located this idiot, the guy was in LA filming "Crash". I guess he was made, best believe it, cameras, big screen TV, red carpet, chandeliers and shit, GONE FILMING IN HOLLYWOOD!

    LOL I AM HAVING A SEIZURE RIGHT NOW! HELP! SOMEBODY STOP THIS PICTURE!!!

    Anyway, on the real. I really didn't do much these days; like usual, besides constant searches for limited shit such as shoes, clothes, jeans, hoes...on the internet; I spend most of my time chilling in the house, doing nothing except proving to my family that I exist and can be helpful. At night, I drink w/ Mike and talk about all kinds of shit. Mike came here to kinda help out the family, since my grandparents are new to the place, they need more people to hang around the house so that more people can prove to them that they also exist and are helpful, thereby creating security and opportunity to play Mah-Jong.

    Drunk people talk a lot, especially Mike and I. I find it amuzing that though his status is now much different than 3 years ago when we used to chill, he didn't change too much in terms of mentality. He's now married, working full-time, owns properties and stuff...can't believe it sometimes, he turned to my family from a homie, wow... Anyway he's gone for a couple of weeks now, so we took a picture...nothing special but hey...

    Uh, though not related, I still gotta put a new picture of my home girl SHaDOH's portrait up here, everytime I feel frustrated or suicidal like a wuss I either check out Natalie Portman's rap video or simply go mess around with Shadoh.

    Shadoh the wonder girl.

    I found myself sadistic sometimes though, ever since I read Jimmy's entry, I started tapping Shadoh's ass... what have I become? but it only gets worse/better, the naughty girl LOVED IT! MM MMM MMMMMM~~~!!!!!

    Alright ya'll, that's it for the night, sleep safe! TOM CHENG REPORT TO ME IF YOU SEE THIS DAMN IT!
