今天

飲食的部份晚餐有點太晚了，21:00 才吃，不過是突發事件，所以也還好，不是常態。

金錢使用正常，晚上買了小瓶優酪乳。

沒有念英、日文。(已經連續幾天了，要注意)

有去健身房運動。

睡眠時間提早到 1:50 。(昨天其實還是 2:00 才去睡)

今天有看一下 paper，重新開始閱讀學術著作。

雜事

今天有把房子定下來，交通很方便，不過比現在住的小很多，空間結構比較特別，但是我想我可以靠自己的的空間配置來彌補這份缺憾。

晚上有去三家腳踏車店看看腳踏車的品牌樣式，不過還沒有看到合適的，要找機會再去別家調查。

對明天的期望

飲食、金錢使用、運動繼續維持。

找出時間念英、日文(已經槓龜好幾天了)

睡眠時間能繼續提早，今天提早的幅度不夠。

從目前的 paper 作延伸閱讀，慢慢深入。

要開始複習一些技術性的東西，像是 C++、Flash。

抽空看點想看的書，像是 Randy Pausch 的 "The Last Lecture"、許方宜的「不怕我和世界不一樣」。(這個槓龜第二天)

Reference: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/server-options.html Therefore, I added the following lines into /Applications/MAMP/conf/my.cnf [mysql] character-set-server=utf8 [client] character-set-server=utf8 [mysqld] character-set-server=utf8 collation-server=utf8_general_ci init-connect='SET NAMES utf8' I restarted the server and mysql run successfully with relevant variables being set correctly. In the "Variables" tab under phpMyAdmin interface (ex. http://localhost:8888/MAMP/?language=English) character set c...
