Welcome to Felix's Blog! (Version 2008)

The purpose of me building this website, originally, as stated in my first version:

"  • To let my friends
                  Always Keep in touch
                  Know more about me
                  Share my precious and happiness
 
  • To let myself
                  Have a better self-understanding through the process
                  Put down heavy luggage of memories and go ahead for my present and future...    
"

Now, after a few years' experience of running the website, I enhance the design direction as below:

Master Statement: "Share the treasure of my life with family and friends."

Detailed Statement and Method of Realization:

" • To let my family & friends and my family & friends Only (access control)
                  Always Keep in touch with Me, My other family & friends and their own family & friends;
                  (online forum and chat room functionalities)
                  Know more about me, themselves and improve understanding of and relationship with each other;
                  (personalized web pages for every one)
                  Share my and their own precious and happiness with each other.
                  (photos, writings, activities, media resources, etc.)

  • To let myself
                  Have a better self-understanding through the process;
                  Improve my Study, Business, and simply web design & community organizational skills;
                  Assist to develop my writing and research ideas; (regular blog writings and discussion)
                  Put down and tide up the heavy luggage of memories and go ahead for my present and future...    
"

You may noticed that access control has been seriously introduced, so please remember the "master access password" every time you were prompt by the page and downloaded files. Also to be benefited from the new functions of my website, please remind me to create a standard login account for you. In this way, I can ensure better web information security, and provide you with much wider and interactive internet resources and services. For example, after you have an approved id in my website, you will be able to view many other articles and uploads that I have posted in the blog or other friend's posts in the forum; you will have your own website pages edited by yourself with your own selected style; you can share your own ,your friends and other people's selected and allowed information (eg. the web system can page or email remind you that one of your friend's birthday is coming soon, if they allow you to know; you may chat with and see your appointed family and friends on your own personalized online chat room...).    

In all, I hope you will find my new website are more interesting and useful. It will become not only my website, but OUR Website!! Enjoy it and let's make it to be more beautiful together. ^_^

Yours always,

11 Jan 2008, 2am, lying on my bed and typing on my little MacBook. :P

No, in most cases, we can't.
and, in my case, it's like.. .

============================================
Finished my master's degree, a life time achievement that I have always been dreamt of. It is a moment of success, the moment of happiness and the moment of Freedom. But, also, which I did not know is that, this moment is also the start of the endless journey of the uneasy life.    

From now on, I can no longer just staying home or school and think just my little world, my study and my entertainment, and dreaming that tomorrow will be a beautiful beautiful day and I will grow up to be a wonderful person with a wonderful life. On contrary, I started to think where I want to stay, how to get my finance, what's the expectation from the family and my friends of what I should do.. . The reality is, bills always arrive faster than job offers, cost of what you want to do is always bigger than what you do. Your best friend, daily company, from this moment on, has changed from Books to Responsibilities.  

You just realized that, in another point of view, your actual period of wonderful life has just disappeared. Yes, you are free now, you have time, but unfortunately, you do not have the money to have fun. Actually, You might not even have enough money to survive, all by yourself. Scaring, isn't it. Or maybe, soon after, there is a job opportunity waits for you, somewhere you might or not wanted, some kind you might not liked. Yet, do you have to give in?.. but how can you just keep waiting and looking for more opportunities when all your family and friends are expecting you to be much easier to find a good job, and while many other friends or classmates seem have got very "good" jobs already. ..    

Why can't we just be ourselves? .. why can't life just be calm and simple like before, and not just filled in with UnEasiness?!!.. .

Yet, an important thing I want to mention is

Whether time has been spent worthy or not, IT HAS NOT BEEN EASY.

Like may other young people around my age,
the first few years after graduation is the most unstable stage of their life.
So is me. So is even, always happy, always lucky -- Felix.  
My first two years has just been a time of UnEasy, Happy, UnHappy and Pain.  

Now, in 2008, 5th Jan, time flew more than two years later:

I am living in Edinburgh,
in a one bedroom flat on the high street by the Castle,
with My WIFE Eva (Yihan Wang),
and is on my second year PhD at Napier University.  

Despite that I have found the other half of myself, there are not big improvement in my life I think,
and that maybe the main reason why my website is out of date, comparing with easy excuses of being busy or lazy.
