A Person Who Has Made a Difference: My Wife

I had some bad habits before I married. The smoking was my worst habit in
my life. I started smoking when I was a junior high school student. Later,
I met my wife. At that time, she always asked me to quit smoking again
and again. Since I had been smoking for nine years, it was difficult for
me to quit smoking. By her requested, I tried very hard in order to quit
it but no use. Meanwhile, she started to lose her patient and started angry
at me when she smelled smoke on me. Finally, I was scared to face her
angry face, so I quitted smoking and I got my health back. After we got
marry. My mother in-low usually give us many foods especially,
Narrow-barred Spanish mackerel (土魠魚). The 土魠魚 is kind
of fish and very delicious. I never try it before. The土魠魚 is middle
size fish which can be cut into slices and salt on it. Then keeps it into
refrigerator. After that, if you want to have it, you can cook it in some
oil with small fire. That is best way to cook it. In Middle Autumn Festival,
my mother in-low goes to buy white pomelo every year. The white
pomelo is a kind of fruit, sweat and full of water. Also, it is very big.
I never try it before. Maybe, It is too expensive, so my mother never
buy it. Now, I can taste white pomelo every year. I think I am luck
man that I can tease many foods or fruits. I would like to say thank you
to my wife and my mother in-low.

Lunghwa University of Science and Technology

Lunghwa University is located gently rolling hill of Taoyuan. I had never been into its campus until I became a student of Lunghwa. My first sight of the campus seems not as large as others university. Also I can’t smell and feel what it is to be like in my expected. Am I disappointed about this? No, of cause I am not a best student too. I told my self what is important thing for you into Lunghwa that is what have you learned when you graduate in Lunghw.

Now I am a weekend student of Lunghwa therefore my teachers have to work on weekend also. I am appreciated for all of my teachers offering their family time to school which some else doesn’t want. Our class teacher Mr.Liu is very gentle and kind for his students. Mr.Liu not only teach us English and also tell us what is a good attitude while you studying in the class or working in your office. For example, he said that you must greet with your teacher before your presentation in the class. He also tells us to prepare a bottle of water for someone who teaches English writing in our class. Because of respect to who has been teaching longest time in Lunghwa is important.

I am dreaming some day my English skill better then I was. Besides, now I have many classmates in my class. Making friends or finding study partners in this period of time can help me to know more things because there are expert in different careers. Especially, some of them are English teacher. I hope that everyone can help each other, one for all, all for one.

Plum Concentrate

Plum Concentrate, I first saw it in SOGO department when I went to window shopping in my lunch time. It is a small bottle and comes from Japan. Once I stood a little while in front of the product looking at it. Unbelievable that small bottle only 280g costs four thousands NTD. I can’t wait the seller open her mouth my feet keeping moving away form her. I think I definitely wouldn’t buy it.

When I know the Plum Concentrate so expensive, I always avoid too closer to the plum seller in SOGO. Sometime the seller smiled at me when I passed through the seller. She always greets with me when she see me. One day she gave me a book written by 梅博士松本. I got it free charge and she told me that plum is good for your body and help you to keep away from the illness.

I read the book at home and I found out that using Plum Concentrate provides many benefits for our body such as balancing body’s PH, helping for digest food, nature antibiotics, balancing blood pressure etc. Most important is that it can prevent cancer which research comes from Tokyo University. I know that is not as cheap however, I think over the health so finally, I buy one bottle for my family.

Introducing Myself (My Job)

China Technical Consultants Incorporated (CTCI) is a global engineering service provider and there are over 7000 employees working in worldwide. I am working in CTCI’s Instrument & Control Department in head office in Taipei. It has been five years passed since I came to CTCI and also I have learned many skills especially in project management.

As an instrument engineer must be very busy in a project because most of plant needs over thousand different kinds of instruments installed in the field. From time to time the process condition may change frequently influenced design schedule. Instrument design group can be divided into four teams, instrument team, control team, detail design team and packaged drawing-review team. The number of required member for each team is depended on the how many instruments required.

Now I am involving to build a chemical plant in Dai-Lin of Kaosiung for China Petroleum Company and I am as a unit leader. In my unit, the detail design work was subcontracted to affiliated company in Vietnam, others team members are task force in our head office included two Vietnamese engineer. As a leader the coordination ability is most important.

I usually call small meeting when any problem come out especially the problem between two engineers or two teams. Each member has own experience and idea for doing particular things, but sometime disagreement with other people. In the meantime, leader must stand out and call each of them to discuss the problem and find the good solution. I try my best to do my work as a good coordinator. Finally, I hope the plant can be hand over in January 2011 smoothly at all.
