这学期碰到一个爱照相片的老师，几乎把班上每个人都照了一遍，没有当场缴械投降的也被要求延期进贡。
其中一些挺具有代表意义，挑出来介绍介绍。

照得很精致，人不是很熟，不过背景选得很好。

很无辜地就被照了。

这是个美女，上课笔记做得很认真。据说想学中文。

经常坐在我旁边，没带笔向我借了几次。有时缠着上面那个女生说话。名字和一总统候选人谐音。哈哈。

很胖的家伙，经常很另外一个体型相似的坐在一起。他后面后面的那个女生长得很精致。

会拉丁文的女生，古典学专业，古希腊文都略通一二。

混血儿，一半中国血统。人比照片上可爱。不过好像不懂中文，却喜欢学日文，吃寿司。来自西雅图，班上唯一一个有手写笔记本。

应该和我一样住在校外，在街上碰到过几次。看起来很颓废。

班上唯一一个黑男生。

越南人。很诚实地说，长得比混血儿漂亮。

坐在我附近，比较少见的安静型，不过稍微有点胖。

出生于挪威奥斯陆，长大于埃及亚历山大港，现居于美国匹斯堡。无论是脸还是身世都有点像某跨国犯罪集团头目。

刀疤光头男，后脑勺有相当长的类似术后刀痕。坐在他身后是要承受一定的心理压力的。

很幽默的小子。
Teacher: Why it's false?
He: Because it's not true.

班上唯一一个和我同专业的男生。

身材特别好，很苗条。好像住在我附近。

不认识，那只老鼠不错。

无法从图中辨认出是班上哪个人，很有趣的一张照片。

I just received my driver’s license today, so I'm an eligible instructor to show you how to obtain a Drivers License in Pennsylvania.

Stage One: Get your learner's permit

The office website has a detailed guide, here is the address: http://www.dmv.state.pa.us/teenDriversCenter/obtainingLearnersPermit.shtml

The Knowledge Test is not that hard, just study the manual and do some simulation tests, you are about to pass. And the Knowledge Test is taken with a computer, all you need to do is clicking the touch screen. Notice you have a chance to skip a question, when you aren't sure about a question, the skip option may be useful.

Below I recommend two websites which may help you prepare the Knowledge Test:
http://driversed.com/courses/drivers-ed/pennsylvania-drivers-education.aspx
A professional drivers training website, you may take 20% courses free, just register an account.

http://www.quia.com/de/pamain.html
A game website, but their questions are similar to the knowledge test.

After you get your learner's permit, you should go to this website http://www.dot3.state.pa.us/exam_scheduling/eslogin.jsp?navigation=true to schedule your Road Test. Don't be afraid that you aren't able to pass at the moment, you should make the appointment as soon as possible, because the earliest test day may be one month later, there are so many people taking road test.

Stage Two: Take the road test

Before road test, you should keep practicing driving. I can't help with your own driving, but I can show you some tips for your road test. There are three parts of the road test.

Part 1: Vehicle Controls

Prepare all the documents needed in your car, then park your car in the designated place. The examiner will come for your test.
You stay in the car, open the windows. The examiner will ask you to operate vehicle controls. So you should know how to use horn, lights (parking lights, high and low beam headlights, turn signals), windshield wipers, parking (emergency) brake, 4-way flashers (hazard lights), defroster, etc. Probably you have left the manual nowhere after you get the learner's permit. So remember to operate these controls in your car before the road test.
After this part, close the windows and adjust your seat and those mirrors.

Part 2: Parallel Park

You should know how to do it. It's the most important part of the road test.
You can practice parallel parking in the Driver License Center when it's closed.

Part 3: Driving in real traffic

If you have practiced so many times, just keep relax, but don't forget some basic rules.
Follow the examiner's instructions.
Stay in right lane.
Full stop when you see a stop sign, left look, right look, left look and then continue.
Don't be too fast, the examiner will remind you the speed limit, but you should keep it in your mind.
When merge into highway, don't be too slow, notice the speed limit.

At last, you will be led back to the Driver License Center. Park anywhere you like.
If you pass the road test, go straight into the Center to get your Temporary Driver's License. After a few days the formal one will be mailed to your home.

This is the video which I recorded in subway-junction of Times Square two days before.
I just stay there for a while, but had been totally shocked by the Speed of Times.
A band there was playing sort of country music, people there were walking in such an amazing pace.
In the length of a song, nearly no person noticed that someone was recording them.
People went by, without hesitation. Yet which went by with them, is the time.
They did meet each other, and didn't want to meet each other again.
Time didn't mean to set them apart, but Time did make them together someday.
After recorded the video, I would went by like one of them.

总算被搬到了一个有点寝室味道的寝室，寝室号清一色的三,里面装了四个人。

一个来自上海，有事没事就往外面跑，海纳了上海人该有的优点和缺点，你经常发现他在干的事情是扫地，你会经常看到他的背影。

一个来自河南，个子很高，果然是北方汉子，很颓废，很忧郁，原先经常看见他在床铺上看书加上等短信，现在据说把干这两件事情的地点放到了自习室里。

一个来自湖南，会弹吉他和快速阅读（仅限奇幻与武侠小说），神出鬼没，刚才刚刚消失去了食堂，歌声很轻柔，宁静中带着一丝悲伤。

还有一个来自福建，喜欢独处，很开心现在自己一个人在爬格子，因为好久没有填过这里。

英格兰仍然没有逃脱点球的厄运，3:1葡萄牙干净利落地在最后对决中射杀了英格兰长弓手们。
小贝在上一场展现了脚底雄姿，可惜这一场关键时刻却只能在场下光瞪眼。
鲁尼也鲁不起来了，一张红牌，让他低下了头。
竹竿克劳奇在最后时刻本有许多机会进球救主，可惜一次次球都擦着球门框飞了出去。
很可惜无法在球场上看见10号欧文飘忽的身影，是不是因为少了他，英格兰才失去了最后一刻百步穿杨的机会呢？

虽然寝室网速不允许在线看视频，听听在线广播还是挺刺激的。
希望欧文能快些回来，那神奇的10号，曾在游戏世界中帮我攻城夺寨的英雄，盼望着你的身影。
