今天回到学校发现单车没了,虽然已经毕业,但相伴两年的单车就如此不告而别,心里多少有点遗憾。只是因为我不够珍惜,没有给它买锁,抱着一份侥幸与之相伴。曾经也想过那么几次给他买一把锁,但又想到马上就毕业了,实在无必要。

我是个自私的人呢,就因为不需要它了,就不再保护它,因为丢失的代价地不过一把锁的成本。就像是一种背叛,冷酷地背叛。

如果能想想这么久以来,它在我去过那么多的地方,没有一点怨言,虽然也会不时有点小毛病,但心里从来没有不情愿过。甚至常常是带病上阵。换来的只是我这个自私者的背叛,连一把锁都得不到。

后来我又花了那么多时间去找车子,可也没找到,耗费的时间和精力已经超过了一把锁的成本。我是一个多么愚蠢的人啊。不知道精打细算这么久,其实不过是自我作弄,最后吃亏的是自己。这不是什么特例吧。

又想到了一个道理,按照常理做事,也许不是最经济的,但一定会是最保险的。保险本身就是一种经济。就像是博弈论里的分类讨论,最终得到的结论往往就是一个常理的结论或正常思维的结果。

一会儿打算再去找找车,可能是找不到了。不过希望偷车的人拥有它之后,能买把锁给它。让它不再会为黑夜中过往的身影而发抖。

我累死了。写不动啦。对不起:)

明天要抓紧时间工作学习


 
Eric @ 2005-05-30 02:13

刚才从crespo家回来,他又向我抱怨单位上的种种BT事情,我听了觉得心里也多少有点郁闷。觉得自己现在这个不错的工作使他介绍的,但是他自己却没有得到一个很好的归宿,心里多少有点难受。其实我觉得自己看人还是蛮准的,一直觉得他是那种适合做销售、物流这样的事情的人,而且也觉得他一定能做好的。只是一方面他自己比较懒,失去了很多机会,还有就是目前实在是很难找到一份满意的工作。

昨天立下的志愿今天似乎没有怎么实现,总觉得过渡的自由是一种我无法控制的资源。现在看来,只有每天订计划才可能把每天的时间利用好。

在家呆久了,又想起了学校,虽然一直都觉得松江是个烂地方而上外则是超级缺德的单位,但毕竟自己这四年的快乐时光都是在那里流逝的,因此,一种归属感在这几天一直干扰着我。我试着不去想,但是过剩的时间充斥着我的心。

明天是星期一,是工作的一天,那让自己紧张起来,把今天想好的事情做到。

Eric @ 2005-05-29 02:36

性 格:   混乱,是所有事情当中,最让8月29日出生的人深感痛恨的,也因此,他们会将自己的工作弄得清清楚楚、有条有理。

  然而这并不表示他们就是严苛或缺乏情趣的人,相反地,他们一直被驱使着要有所行动,而且或许还会有满腔的热情,只是却能以一种有条理、有组织的方式来表达自己罢了。

  不按牌理出牌,是今天出生的人一生当中一再重复的行为模式,这不仅表示他们很少会迷失自己的方向,而且还会想出新的切入要点的解决方式来克服问题。就这个角度而言,他们可说是积极进取的思考者与行动者,始终都忙着找寻更有效率、更精细与更有连贯性的做事方针。

  然而,出生于8月29日的人并不会紧紧掌握自己的情绪,换言之,他们是颇为情绪化的人,有许多人甚至还无法拥有一个完整的私生活。很典型的情况是,他们会很努力地将公事(在这方面他们经常做得很成功)与私事(经常是乱成一团)分开。但是,无可避免地,他们却始终无法控制自己,而任由情绪来将一切搞砸,因此,他们常为自己惹来一堆层出不穷的麻烦。

  一般人也许会认为,8月29日出生的人应该要专注于自己的工作,让私生活尽可能保持简单,但是,他们对家庭、朋友和深情的伴侣的需求却十分强烈。这一天出生的人若不是非常擅于交际的话,必定会以一种亲密的方式来对他们所亲近的人表达爱意,而这也是其内在冲突的起源──一方面,他们想努力于工作,另一方面又想拥有一个美满的私生活,因而,常为此处于不断的内在冲突中。


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

爱情运:   8月29日生的人虽然温和、诚实,但不会陷于感情用事之中。跟工作时一样,他会冷静的挑选自己的人生伴侣,聪明程度要跟自己一样。

  如果能够同时满足自己肉体上的欲求,那就再好不过了。否则他会另外在找一个爱人。

  8月29日生的人可以从家人和家庭中,得到安详和满足。女性通常会是个贤妻良母,男性的话,则是个值得信赖和依靠的好丈夫。结婚生子之后,会是个更有爱心、更可以幸赖的好爸爸、好妈妈,但是可能会以自己为标准,对孩子的要求比较严格。请注意:要多体贴孩子的感情和个性呵!


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

金钱运:   跟其它事一样,8月29日生的处女座对金钱也是纯理论的,首先他会确定自己要过怎样的生活,然后再配合这个有计划的增加资金。

  他是纯朴、脚踏实地的工作者,几乎不会奢望有超越收入范围的生活品质。整体而言,跟其它的处女座一样,经济观念发达,有若干余裕,具有为朋友解困的余力。但是在金钱的借贷约定方面,都很严格。

  8月29日生的人不太有功利心。比较着重井然的秩序优秀与否,也许有点太过保守,但蛮适合管理阶层的。


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

事业运:   8月29日生的人不太有功利心。比较着重井然的秩序优秀与否,也许有点太过保守,但蛮适合管理阶层的。

  最适合从事必须要求责任,正确度、分析力的工作。像金融业、法律相关事业以及所有的商业。对帮助人或动物的工作也很感兴趣。


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

健康运:   许多8月29日出生的人都拥有极为敏感的神经系统,使得他们在面临压力的情况之下,都会想借着麻醉品来躲避现实。

  过于沉溺于爱情与性爱活动,也会为他们带来危险,因为爱与性虽然能带来一时心绪上的宁静,同样也能导致情绪上的崩溃。如果这些出生于这一天的人,能在工作和情绪上运用理智的力量来好好加以控制的话,他们将会十分快乐与富足;如果不能的话,就得小心防范了!再也没有比混乱的生活更令他们感到更困扰的事了,然而,这却经常是他们命运的写照。8月29日出生的人必须学会接受自己的生活模式,并和其它人一样奋力生存,而非消极地批判社会,或只想逃避所面临的问题。健康、多样化而可口的饮食,对维持他们情绪的稳定和安宁会有极大的帮助,而且,这或许是对抗潜在不良沉溺习惯的最佳武器。


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

幸运数字:   8月29日出生的人会受到数字2和月亮的影响。由于受月亮影响的人比较能成为良好的伙伴,而非团体中的领导者,所以这项特质也相当符合8月29日出生的人团体取向的价值观。

  然而,同样地,这项特质也很容易成为个人进取心与行动时的绊脚石,让他们产生挫折感。同时,又因为月亮拥有强烈的自省心与被动的倾向,使得这种情形又得到进一步的强化,另外,水星(处女座的主宰行星)也会带来一种对事情过于内省的倾向。

生日花: 木剑锦葵——二世纪罗马的殉教者,圣沙比耶之花

  自古以来,基督教里就有将圣人与特定花朵连结在一起的习惯,这因循于教会在纪念圣人时,常以盛开的花朵点缀祭坛所致!而在中世纪的天主教修道院内,更是有如园艺中心般的种植着各式各样的花朵,久而久之,教会便将366天的圣人分别和不同的花朵合在一起,形成所谓的花历。当时大部分的修道院都位在南欧地区,而南欧属地中海型气候,极适合栽种花草。木剑锦葵便是被选来祭祀2世纪的罗马殉教者──圣沙比耶的花朵。它是一种锦葵属多年生草本植物,生命力很强,即使在西伯利亚那极恶劣的环境,也能长得很健康。


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

花 语: 别噘嘴


  在古罗马帝国时代,木剑锦葵是治疗蜂螫的特效药,它还具有消除颜面,身体皮肤肿胀的功效。因此它的花语是「别鼓起嘴巴」。受到这种花祝福的人,脾气暴躁,是个爱生气的家伙,常与人起冲突,而且成天鼓着一张嘟嘟的嘴。不过,当他发现自己错误时,也会有立刻道歉的勇气,否则,亲密伴侣早就逃之夭夭了。


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

诞生石: 玛瑙


  据说,由于玛瑙的原石外形和马脑相似,因此称它为「玛瑙」。不论在旧约圣经或佛教的经典,都有玛瑙的事迹记载。

  在东方,它是七宝、七珍之一。玛瑙可分为玉髓和玛瑙。原石颜色不复杂的称为「玉髓」,出现直线平行条纹的原石则称为「条纹玛瑙」(截子玛瑙)。根据原石的颜色,又有缠丝玛瑙、深红玛瑙等称呼。最近,一般都将染色的黑玛瑙统称为玛瑙。


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

诞生石的传说:   传说爱和美的的女神阿佛洛狄,躺在树荫下熟睡时,她的儿子爱神厄洛斯,偷偷的把她闪闪发光的指甲剪下来,并欢天喜地拿着指甲飞上了天空。飞到空中的厄洛斯,一不小心把指甲弄掉了,而掉落到地上的指爪变成了石头,就是玛瑙。因此有人认为拥有玛瑙,可以强化爱情,调整自己与爱人之间的感情。在日本的神话中,玉祖栉明玉命献给天照大神的,就是一块月牙形的绿玛瑙,这也是日本三种神器之一!

系统化的一周  8/26-9/2

黄道宫位置: 约在处女座2-10度

季 节: 夏末

元 素: 土

主宰行星: 水星

象征符号: 处女

理解事物的方式: 感官、思考

  处女一的中心意象是「系统的组织者」,相当于人类到了婚姻、事业或男女朋友关系都很稳固、和谐的人生阶段。此时,很多人开始参与服务性质的活动,或在家庭、专业、社会生活中,回馈自己的所得,充份表现出助人和发挥正面影响力的意愿。在这一周出生的人会开始为社会理想贡献己力,他们会与志趣相同、互相支持的伙伴合作,以一丝不苟、有意义的态度,寻求改革社会的契机,严肃面对自己的人生。年轻时过着无忧无虑、逍遥自在生活的人,在这个阶段也不得不认真思考责任和义务的问题。

  处女一的人在日常生活中相当注重结构化,凡事都计画得很周详、很有系统,这种一丝不苟的处世态度使得他们得承受众多压力。意志坚定和专心一致的个性,是他们稳定力量的最大支柱。因此,如果他们承受许多情绪压力,无法冷静思考时,他们会十分苦恼、烦躁。这类型的人最无法忍受混乱的生活,所以,建立规律的生活、打理得一丝不乱的家居环境或干净明朗的工作环境,都是维持他们心理健康的必要条件。不过,过度死板、一成不变的生活态度,对他们也有不利影响,最好还是随时反省检讨,折衷一下吧!

  处女一的人的工作大部份都跟服务业有关;他们在家中扮演的角色,也大多如此。这类型的人非常有同情心,喜欢协助或保护弱小和受苦的人。不过,不是每一个处女一的人都能如此无怨无悔地奉献自己,有些人要是肩负太重大的责任时,也是会反弹和抱怨。大抵来说,这类型的人都喜欢跟能与他们共同合作或分担责任的同事或伴侣在一起生活,但是你可别以为他们都是很合群、爱热闹的人喔!基本上,处女一的人需要很多时间一个人独处,他们只有在自己组织的社会团体或家庭中,才可将能力、贡献和影响力发挥得淋漓尽致。

  处女一的人通常很少担任顶尖的领导角色,但是他们可以成为出色的工作伙伴或股东。他们喜欢位居幕后,在行动之前先仔细观察;而他们与生俱来的客观评价能力,对一个公司或家庭的经营都十分具有价值。在他们观看周遭事物或阅读某些资料后,你要他们报告、口头陈述总结,或运用不同媒体做出结论,他们都能做得超乎你想象得好,总之,他们的观察、归纳能力非常卓越。

  这一周出生的女人的个性可能会很害羞或常常表现出一本正经的模样;男性也经常给人坚强、沉默的印象。处女一的人不喜欢表现得很积极或彰显出强烈企图心,他们宁可静坐一旁,等待有「慧眼」的人来发掘他们。他们之所以如此,一方面是怕被拒绝,另一方面是想让自己站在有「选择权」的优越地位。事实上,处女一的人只要觉得自己受到重视,或被捧在手心上时,他们就会失去冷静的判断力,在面对个人事务时尤其如此。因此,很不幸地,他们常选择了不搭调的情人或朋友,有时为了这一时的错误,就会无端惹出许多麻烦事。这类型的人对外界事务的客观判断能力,并不适用于厘清他们自己的情绪上。结果造成当他们遇到挫折时,情绪会极端不稳定,容易紧张失常。碰到失败,他们更沉不住气,无法坦然面对,更遑论妥善处理了。

  处女一的人心志坚定,十分顽固,所以容易引发别人的敌意,跟那些处事通融、圆滑的人,更显得格格不入。他们在当了家长或为人父母后,可能会定下许多家规,强迫家人遵守。他们心中总有一种想支配、控制别人的欲望,只有在他们的命令、允许下,别人才有自由选择的空间。不过换个角度来说,他们也算是十分热情、执着的人,最适合跟随遇而安、活泼的人共事或组织家庭。这类从不刻意计画安排事物的人,跟处女一的人是最佳的拍档。

  这一周出生的人最需要学习松绑自己、自由自在地生活,所以除了上述类型的人与他们最配外,能让他们放松心情、逗他们玩闹的人,也很适合处女一的人。处女一的人跟爱玩型的人结合,正好互补彼此的优缺点,对双方都十分有益。但是处女一的人在谈恋爱时,态度小心谨慎,遇到困难时也会马上退缩,根本无法面对对方的情绪起伏。他们在恋情中并不是很值得信赖,情绪稍一不稳定,就会觉得无法付出任何东西给对方。

  如果处女一的人实际、热心服务的个性,如果正好吸引了依赖、需人呵护型的人的话,麻烦可就大了。他们必须竭尽心力才能应付对方的需求,然而,要是他们一直不顾一切地付出,反而会害了自己。真爱必须建立在彼此互相的付出和分享上,若这类型的人不幸遭遇到需索无度的人,很快地,他们一定会大大反感、心生厌恶,弄得彼此不欢而散。

  虽然处女一的人,很喜欢跟别人共同生活、交往,但是他们要多为自己争取空间和权益,避免过度自我牺牲。要学习建立真正独立的生活方式,不须为了父母、客户、朋友或情人的喜好意愿而活。就长远而言,跟独立、懂得应对进退、有原则的人亲密交往,对处女一的人最有益处。因为这类型对象乍看之下有点自私、本位主义浓厚,但他们是处女一的人的良好学习榜样。处女一的人必须对别人的要求看淡些,学习洒脱一点,表达出自己的感觉和立场,多学会精打细算一些。

优点 组织能力强、可依赖、喜爱服务他人。

缺点 严谨、有时很情绪化、有自我毁灭倾向。

建议

  稍微降低你的标准,尊重别人的意愿,让事情顺其自然地发生。试着将公事与私生活分开。有时不妨放手,将事情交给别人去负责。小心预防,别结交到一群酒肉朋友。偶尔自私一点没关系,多为自己争取些利益。
