Something i didn't know before, the part about how camera works. on a related note, i just got a new email address sangyu at flyeye dot ucsd dot edu. feel free to utilize my lab server space.

had to get the tv series crave out of my system way before sch starts or i'd just die. so i watched tokyo love story again. i thought maybe i was sillier 10 years ago, but no, i wasn't. the show is still good. you who have watched it know what i'm talking about.

but for sex and the city. the more i watch the more i don't get its point. it was supposed to be suggesting a new lifestyle for women, but the statement gets lost along the progress of the 6 seasons. in the end everybody was happily married or at least settled down for a better life to start. miranda and samantha might have avoided being a cliche like carrie(with big, ugh) or charlotte(with both men, ugh!), but they too were pressurised by either their biological clock or whatever that drove them into a settle relationship. in the end you get the feeling that such stress from life is inevitable and the only way women can find a better life is to succumb to it and conform. no more cynicism, of course, and sarcasm.

and so much for feminism.
