在麥當勞打工近一個月，一開始雖然感覺很累，又常常犯錯被罵，但是最近感覺做得蠻快樂的，對於工作也比一開始熟悉多了。現在我可以冷靜的站櫃檯，看螢幕取餐，在有限的時間內打刷完廁所，拖好地，清完三層樓的六包垃圾。
雖然這份工作勞心又勞力，不過同事都是很不錯的人，我也藉著工作對麥當勞有更深的了解。
無論是服務員的工作站訓練，或是其設備都是領先於其他同業，小到薯條灑鹽器，煎蛋杯，大到其薯條炸爐，煎爐等等，都是所費不貲的專利產品。現在又推出MFY(Made for you)的技術，顧客的訂單能立即傳送到螢幕上，廚房人員可以依照螢幕所示為客人現做。它能成為速食業的龍頭絕不是偶然。

Working
Here i am again. This morning i lost my temper before i went to Mac. My bike was lost, and i supposed that my father rode away. To my relief, when i get home, i phoned my dad, and he says that the bike is in the first floor of our appartment.
Today i did the morning shift. There are less people than the noon and night shift. The manager asked me to clean the dining area first, and then i worked at the beverage station. I made tons of mistake and i was still not familiar enough with the beverage, so i was scolded harshly by the manager. However, i think i can handle the blame, because people learn from mistake. If i take the criticism personally, it would be very difficult to carry on. At least now i have learned how to brew the tea correctly, and not to make the same mistake again.
Half an hour before the rush hour, i clean the dining area again, and this time i did better and more efficient that what i did on Sunday. I think i really find the tip of cleaning, that is do the most important things in limitd time. I changed the plastic bags in the bin from sec to fourth floor, refilled the paper towel and toilet paper in the toilet, cleaned aways the dirts and wastes in the toilet, mopped the floor dry, broomed away the littered and fast food leftovers on the ground, and take all the plates to the first floor to wipe it. There is actually a rhythm to clean, and i am glad i can handle them all by myself today.
After all the works are done, i felt great degree of sense of achievement. The job really gives me an insight into physical labour; labour makes me think about life, the sweat and aspiration are the proof of the real sacrifice and devotion.

GoodChat
This friday i dined with several high-school classmates at a small restaurant called BRIENZ near by the metro Jhonghsiao Dunhwa. It was really pleasant experience.
I ate lots of spaghetti, fried delights, and grilled dishes. It was very cheap, which only costs me 252NT with the 10% service charge. Thanks to Yuchin that i can have a really pleasant meal! By the way, Yuchin is more stylish than before, haha.
Strange to say, i was obsessed with the TYPO on the menu, that is 提拉米斯, which should be 提拉米蘇 according to the TIRAMISU in italien. I can't help but laughing... I often get mad at something really trival, forgive me XD
Because the data size of my photo is very big, it would take several days for me to upload.
Wish you guys who reads my Blog have a pleasant and productive summer.

Part-Time
This week i started my first part-time job, since i've never worked part-time, i feel very nervous but still excited. I am working at MacDonald right now from monday, and today i don't have to go there.
The last three day's working experience was very challenging. The first day I learned how to fry the fries with the frying machine, and how to put in the fries in to the package; also i learned how to fill in different beverages in different cups of kinds of sizes and appeareance, and last two days i learned how to operate the counter machine and receive customers' order.
I felt extremely nervous when i have to receive the order from the customer, because the counter machine. I have to touch the right button on the monitor as quickily as possible, and then, i have to make sure the order i am entering the menu is correct. Of course, I made lots mistakes. Sometimes i forgot to take out the change to the customer and the drawer is closed, and the manager have to open it for me, which is very embarrassing. And i often forget to ask the order is eat-in or to-go. I made the same mistakes many times. And sometimes i stammered or speaked too fast, because i am so nervous.
Aside from many trivial details i have to take care of in mind, the job itself is really tiring. Each shift i have to stand 4 hours without rest, so my feet and my legs are thus aching severely at night. Although it is very challenging and comparably low-pay than my previous tutoring job, i hope i can stick it out and learn how to get things done efficiently and how to deal with people. And i guess i would have a great time no matter what, the crew there are very energetic and some of the trainer are very kind and easy-going. I really learned a lot from last three days training.

新語言
這個暑假我開始自學西班牙語和韓語。因為行天宮圖書館有很多有聲書可以借，而且暑假時間很閒，剛好可以學新的語言。國二的時候其實就曾經買韓語的教材來學，
因為那時候很迷韓劇「冬季戀歌」，但是當時因為買的教材不適合初學者，導致我後來興趣缺缺，只認得幾個韓文字母。加上之後喜歡日劇勝於韓劇，於是升大學的暑假就開始學日語。韓文雖然和日語血緣相近，SYNTAX(句構)和日語類似，但發音不像日文那麼好上手，但有些音我一直抓不到正確的發音方法。
而學西班牙語的動機則是因為學了法語，覺得自己應該可以容易上手。西語在世界上也是很多人使用的語言，許多南美洲的國家都是使用西班牙語，所以說會西班牙語，就可以在南美走透透了！西班牙語名詞分陰陽性，動詞依照人稱有其複雜的變化，這點和法語很類似，但是有些音和英語以及法語相差很大。他的R發音為彈舌音，C是發英文中TH的音。彈舌音一直是學西語的人最頭痛的一個障礙，聽史嘉琳說，正確的R需要使舌頭彈三次以上，算是一個Trill(舌顫音)，我現在只能彈兩次，舌頭不夠靈活。
不知為何，我對外語有喜好，以背單字學文法為樂。每一種語言都反映其獨特的世界觀，也都有其困難性。能夠用各種不同的語言表達自己的想法，這種感覺真的很好。

無敵浩克
這幾天實在是悶熱的可以，昨天在家裡宅了一天猛看DVD，還有剛下載好的日劇LAST FRIEND，但是星期天都待在家裡，感覺還是有點空虛，於是晚上便和我弟和從高雄來台北的表弟去看電影。國賓環球影城在我家附近有接駁車，十五分鐘一班，還算蠻方便的。我弟說想看無敵浩克，而我因為沒特別想看的片，就接受我弟的提議。
這和五年前上映的綠巨人浩克有些出入，並不是像一般所謂的續集，無論是導演或是劇中演員都做了更動，男主角布魯斯班納原本是一位科學家，但因為聽信女主角貝蒂的父親，注射了高劑量伽瑪輻射，使他在情緒高昂的時候會變身成浩克。變身之後，他沒辦法控制自己的行動，而浩克的高殺傷力，往往造成難以挽回的毀滅，逼得他只好隱居起來，尋找治療的方法。
劇中的種種特效場面，還是要到電影院看才有FU，無論是爆破或是打鬥，聲音和畫面都超有魄力。除了運用3D動畫技術打造浩克之外，電影還另外花經費到南美出外景，感覺比一般電腦動畫堆砌的怪獸電影更有內容，除了美國之外可看到巴西貧民窟、尼加拉瓜雨林的風景。我個人還蠻喜歡巴西的貧民窟(ghetto)那段，一個山上密集地蓋滿了房子，男主角布魯斯在片中一開始就藏匿於此。劇中還有他和FBI探員在ghetto追逐的場面，看著他們在窄巷中狂奔，在屋簷間跳來跳去，我覺得還蠻刺激的。看完之後覺得花200元看很值得。
