extend topic of yesterday

It is really touch something when I saw the band yesterday.
When I saw their face had many enjoy and happiness.
I understand they are really like what they were doing.
Like always , it reminded myself. During me and Jane's discuss,I said:the thing that I want most is I can really enjoy what I do everyday. That's what I want. 
And so many people here I feel they all try to do so and try very hard.

We are all different soul which put in different bottles.
But there are some desires what we both want it.
Enjoy life ba.....

what friday night

Today before we left,connie talked with us and asked what we will do this weekend?
I though he might just tried to be nice. But she said maybe we can hang out sometimes.
oh!Really? I said maybe today.So after he asked her boyfriend then,we go to a bar.
By the way,her boyfriend's name is Francois who work at smart design.
A nice guy. Really nice,cool place just like an sport bar in Taiwan(but it's not).
We ordered some beer and got a upstairs seat. And enjoy the live band which had one man for guitar and one woman for violin.Oh! she is hot...... ha ha
After pub,me and Jane 'd like to go home but there was no MUNI after 9.00 p.m..
So we took S to Costure and shuttle bus to West Ferro.
It took a long time and thank for a guy who came from Singapore pointed the right bus for us.
Although he kept talking with us and I guess it made June nervous.So we took taxi to home.
It spent 6 dollars. Each one paid 3 dollars. Faster,safer and warmer.
It's worthy.

People mountain,people sea

Today,after staying at home about 6 hours,I decided to go to music concert.
It is nearby the W street.
I took bus to there and stop in front of a park which is called LARSEN PARK.
I was walking on the sidewalk.
There was a old lady came to me and asked  are you going to concert?
Yes,I said. And she pointed a way to me and tell me how to get there.
What a nice lady.
WOO!!So many people there and what nice music here.
People danced with music. After looking for a seat about 10 minutes.
I chose a mountain seat finally and enjoy music.





Did I am lucky today?
Not only a concert that I can enjoy but a church family also invited me to join their dinner.
So many kind of food made by Keren's husband.
They treated me so nice.
Such huge Oyster、steak、mutton-chop、pork chop and potato salad with a cup of white gourd tea.
I am so satisfy.
Thanks for Keren's family and her friends.
You are so nice.
And I am happy about Wang wins the game.
oh also happy father's day. 

Church

This is my second weekend at SF.
So this is my second time to go to church. Same church,HOLY WORD.
But today,Jane and I decided to go to first at 9.30 and speak English.
I can realize what she said on the stage but I cannot find where bible words is?
So I concentrate at what she said.
Roughly,she told about how God watch each one of us.
Even though there are so many people on the earth. He still watch us personally.
I feel safe after her speech.
Yes! God is watching us , no matter where you are or who you are.

Lunar、Final course and city tour

Lunar design.....
we went to see it and the president John came to receive us.
I guess many friends of mine know about Lunar's podcast.
Thanks Leo for that information,so I listen to it at very first and became a audience loyalty.
I really happy about to see him although he only prepare a ppt just like a routine.
But i still ask some question about sustain design which was last topic in podcast.
My question was that I guess if we can extend product life ,we might lose our job.
Ha, It is a trick question.
He said many stuff about how to extend product life such as design for disassembling or use material properly and finally he said it is always a conflict , I believe it.
My friend of mine know me that I always support sustain.
I just curious about people who support that ,specially product designer.
I still can remember one time ,I discuss that with one friend of mine who work for fashion industry.
Obviously,She don't like it.I am happy someone agree my point.
 



Friday is last course that we need to take at Zoe design.
Kelly will be our lecturer at forenoon.
Another Lecturer is a market research company.
Kelly prepared many stuff about product process and how to find a target market.
Really good and well prepared lecture.
But maybe sometime his English was so fast that I cannot follow him and missed a lot.
I still learn some thing.
Actually ,one thing.
I can remember what experience used told me how to sever our customer.
I learn how to satisfy customer instead of guide them to right direction.
Sometimes,I fulfill what customer want not people or my desire.
I feel pain and frustrated many times. 
Today the lesson who kelly teach us.
I guess many stuff are important but most important to me is that find the true bull's eye.
It is market.
Although,I realize that some clint in Taiwan.
Market always means big buyer or channel and clint only listen to them.
And the only thing they need us is to build a different form for them.
Always a struggle like John used to said.

Afternoon,Steve was our lecturer.
The most interesting thing he shared with us is different point of view.
He showed us many ordinary photos.
But he see it through an extra-ordinary view and it showed different cultural inside.
It is interesting.
I asked him how he can see through this photos?
He said that is what he love to do and getting better and better.
I guess it is.
After class, I came to him and ask one more question.
Steve used to be a one man company.
He just hired an employee.
And sometimes,his clients are big brand.
I am curios about did his client will judge him through his office and how many people 
at his company?
He mentioned one time there is one client who came from Japan want to see his office.
But he work at home. ha ha
The result was good of course.
Most of his client will not care about how big his company is?Steve said.
Oh~I love this country.

one&co.、frog

One&co. and frog .......... we went to there yesterday..
One&co. is a real trendy company.
Through as I stay in Taiwan,I saw his portfolio and look like it is familiar with my old company.
But after this two weeks,I have to said it is real trendy company no matter interior or portfolio.
And what about frog??
It is only company we need to write a document of confidential.
It remind me about how I give that kind paper to our vendor,ha-ha.
the frog we visit is located at SF.
Most project they did is GUI or interface like not product design.
They said product design is at San jose not here.
I feel nothing about that company.
And during lunch time we went to see baseball at AT&T.
It was awesome!!
Actually,only very time I ever play baseball during my junior high.
I don't know why?I guess that there are no friends of mine play that sport,so...
But the feel is good and most important was the place we stood is free.
I like free stuff..... ha-ha.
