Thoughts inspired by a cat Half a month ago, a cat came scrambling in off the balcony. It lives with me now. At first, its demands were simple: just a place to crash. So much so that on the first day it refused to leave — even though I had nothing to feed it. I opened the door and carried it out; it darted straight back in. I carried it out and quickly shut the door; it stood outside yowling at the door, dead set on getting back in. Later I got it some food, gave it a bath, bought cat food and kept its bowl full every day, bought cat litter and set up a toilet.

Though I keep reminding myself, I always quietly forget. What a wondrous thing time is. Traversing the four corners and the heavens and earth In the haze of illusion, I feel you once again — that is a childhood memory, blurred and hard to recall clearly anymore.

People keep asking me these questions on QQ, so I’ll just write them here instead. You’ve graduated by now, right? Yes, I officially graduated at the end of June this year.

Got a new laptop, so here’s a picture to mark the occasion.

Got to Shenzhen the afternoon before last, picked up the computer that came by courier yesterday afternoon, and finished setting up my work environment this morning. The next two months are all-ou...

On 09.5.12, the first anniversary of the Wenchuan earthquake, I left Qoolu Network, where I had worked for a full seven months. Back to a freelance career full of boundless dreams.

Since the site was last hacked (2008-12-12), it has been showing “I will be back!”. After dragging on for so long, over the weekend of February 14–15, 2009, I stayed up all night to bring back http://www.mousebomb.org/2007/, the personal site I once took such pride in.

Departed at 7:20 AM on the 11th, arrived in Shanghai by noon, and got to the company (QooLu.com) in the afternoon. Starting work on Monday: AS programmer. From today until October 13th of next year, I’m not taking on any outsourcing work.

Tagging: Junghae Tagged by: Mousebomb Rules: 1. The person who gets tagged must write their answers on their own blog & Qzone. Then add 1 question of your own and pass it on to 10 other people. List the names of the 10 people who have to answer the questions, and let them know they’ve been tagged. The tagged person may not refuse to answer, and whoever finishes the game will forever receive everyone’s blessings. 2. These 10 people must note on their own blog & QQ Zone where they got the questions from. And they must think up one more question to pass on to 10 other people, so this happy game keeps going. 3. No passing it back, or you’re cheating! 4. The people whose names are called will receive everyone’s blessings, and all their beautiful wishes will come true before long.
