Bu Zhi Bu Jue. Bu4 zhi1 bu4 jue2 - Adv. unconsciously, without noticing. "有些问题不用回答,有些事情不用怕." - Andy Lau. Being lazy in Beijing. Lately I've just been hanging around with my friends and sister, watching movies, eating well, giving into our irrational urges to eat western food. It's so strange that when I'm in the U.S., I really have no desire to eat purely American food, but after being here for two weeks I suddenly want to devour a hamburger. Onto our last week of teaching and interviewing! We're really ...

Bu Zhi Bu Jue. Bu4 zhi1 bu4 jue2 - Adv. unconsciously, without noticing. "有些问题不用回答,有些事情不用怕." - Andy Lau. What else is there? It's not often that I think of God or of faith, and I'm pretty unclear about what kind of faith I might belong to or seek solace in. But lately, as I've been watching this little boy fight a losing struggle with cancer, I've been racking my brain for words of comfort for his family and could find nothing except words of faith. Nothing else seemed to suffice. May he rest in peace.

Bu Zhi Bu Jue. Bu4 zhi1 bu4 jue2 - Adv. unconsciously, without noticing. "有些问题不用回答,有些事情不用怕." - Andy Lau. The NYTimes front page article. No country in history has emerged as a major industrial power without creating a legacy of environmental damage that can take decades and big dollops of public wealth to undo. Chinese cities often seem wrapped in a toxic gray shroud. Only 1 percent of the country’s 560 million city dwellers breathe air considered safe by the European Union. Posted by kelley @ 10:20 PM.

Bu Zhi Bu Jue. Bu4 zhi1 bu4 jue2 - Adv. unconsciously, without noticing. "有些问题不用回答,有些事情不用怕." - Andy Lau. Coincidental meetings and genetic mutations. Of the 3 billion basepairs that comprise the human genome, only 1.5% is actually protein-coding genes. The rest? I'm pretty sure evolution progresses in the direction of survival, so that is probably an irrational fear. But I tend to have a lot of irrational fears, and this is just one of the most interesting.

Bu Zhi Bu Jue. Bu4 zhi1 bu4 jue2 - Adv. unconsciously, without noticing. "有些问题不用回答,有些事情不用怕." - Andy Lau. More NYTimes Coverage of China's Economic Boom and Environmental Woes. Excerpt from the NYTimes front page article today. Cities like Beijing and Tianjin have shown progress on water conservation, but China’s economy continues to emphasize growth. Industry in China uses 3 to 10 times more water, depending on the product, than industries in developed nations. Posted by kelley @ 4:59 PM. Where single ce...

Bu Zhi Bu Jue. Bu4 zhi1 bu4 jue2 - Adv. unconsciously, without noticing. "有些问题不用回答,有些事情不用怕." - Andy Lau. Employing bacteria to do our housecleaning. The NYTimes reported a really interesting breakthrough. Scientists at the institute directed by. A pioneer in sequencing the human genome, are reporting that they have successfully transplanted the genome of one species of bacteria into another, an achievement they see as a major step toward creating synthetic forms of life.

I've just been skimming through the last couple entries, and I've realized (for the hundredth time) that 1) I stress too much, and 2) I have a habit of sounding negative or cynical every time I write. I guess it makes sense, since I tend to blog when I need to vent some place. There, I feel better already. I think I'm inspired to go study some more. Posted by kelley @ 12:34 AM. Science is a way of life.

Bu Zhi Bu Jue. Bu4 zhi1 bu4 jue2 - Adv. unconsciously, without noticing. "有些问题不用回答,有些事情不用怕." - Andy Lau. One more year down, one left to go. Oh, but there are also these things called 3 hour tests on everything I've learned in the past 5 months. The process isn't so fun, but at the end I always feel like I've accomplished something substantial (that is, if I studied well and actually retained the info). Waiting for that feeling, in a week a few days from today, when I will feel free. I'm less excited abo...

Bu Zhi Bu Jue. Bu4 zhi1 bu4 jue2 - Adv. unconsciously, without noticing. "有些问题不用回答,有些事情不用怕." - Andy Lau. I always wish I can remember more of my dreams, at least of the ordinary ones- only the vivid dreams stick with me when I wake up, like the ones in which spiders are crawling on my face, or the ones involving the boy I like. The ordinary ones, though, are usually about something I am really worried about- exams, presentations, my future, the like. I don't know what to say to him! And I thought my drea...
