Work and Heat

.

Work is the transfer of energy that makes use of the uniform motion of atoms in the surroundings.

Heat is the transfer of energy that makes use of the random motion of atoms in the surroundings.

劇情簡介

.

壞脾氣的菲爾至小鎮報導_土撥鼠日_盛會,原本採防完預計返回城市,因風雪過大而停留於鎮上一日。隔日醒來,卻發現自己仍在2月2日當天,接著菲爾嘗試各種方法,包括拼命去死,每天醒來都會重覆過著同一天的生活,永遠沒有明天。

.

Phil continues to try to learn more about Rita, and when he reveals his situation to her and the knowledge he’s gained about the town’s residents, she opens up to him and suggests he try to use his situation to help benefit the town. Phil uses her advice and the time loop to help as many people around town as possible, as well as bettering himself, such as by learning to play jazz piano and speaking French.

.

最後菲爾明白到,與其冇方法要人鐘意自己,不如令自己嘅每一個同一日都過得充實同埋有意義,等到萬一可以脫離框框時會有個新嘅未來,於是佢利用無限嘅時間去學咗好多唔同嘅手藝去增值自己,同埋因為佢已經好熟咁知道每日喺邊度會有咩事發生,佢亦會積極咁週圍去幫嗰啲要幫忙嘅人;不過當中都有個小遺憾,就係佢唔可以阻止其他人生命嘅終結。

.

喺某一個土撥鼠節,菲爾感動人心嘅現場報導,令到在場所有專注聽佢講嘢嘅人都大拍手掌;而喺哩日嘅夜晚,麗塔去到鎮上開早春慶祝會嘅社區會堂,只見到菲爾喺舞檯度彈住一手輕快兼且熟練嘅鋼琴,之後人人都爭住向佢打招呼,成為咗席上最閃耀嘅人;原來一日嚟佢幫過幾個女人架車換呔,所以幾個女人都走埋嚟多謝佢;佢幫過一個食嘢啃親嘅肥佬吐返粒核出嚟,於是兩公婆又走嚟多謝佢;佢鼓勵咗一對心大心細想結婚但又唔放心嘅情人,於是哩對準新人又嚟多謝佢……

Phil wakes up the next day, and finds the time loop has broken; …

年年齡

節日祝願:「新世紀年階劃分」即將反映現實

.

以前的人許多都十三四歲就結婚,三十出頭就抱孫做老太爺,早婚早老早死。今天科學昌明,健康水平普遍提高了,三四十歲還跟小孩子差不多。有見及此,我作出了一種「新世紀年階劃分」如下:

*********************
嬰兒—–0~10歲
幼童—–11~20歲
中童—–21~30歲
少年—–31~40歲
青年—–41~60歲
中年—–61~80歲
壯年—–81~100歲
老當益—–101~150歲
老而彌—–151~175歲
***********************

考試日記 1

.

去年大概這個時候是我一科物理的mid-term exam.

我習慣每次考試前的十五分鐘背平時準備定的公式紙.

.

但是那天的計劃有變.

1. 那科物理是有關應用數學的. 公式太長太多.

起碼要四十五分鐘才能背完.

2. 四時正我要立刻乘的士去中文大學考試.

而中學放學前有三堂課 1:45pm – 4:00pm.

.

.

我唯有在 1:00pm-1:45pm 先背好公式表.

然後去教三堂書.

放學立刻乘的士去中文大學.

我是剛剛好四時半到達試場, 是最後一個到.

.

.

原來我所背的公式有八成還可以記得.

但是我太累了.

每次只可以想到未來兩步. 正常情形下應該是五步的.

(全試卷共三題.)

而最後一題還要是考靈感.
