| Today i was studying Econometrics for my midterm next Tuesday and suddenly my friend asked me a question while he was doing his homeworks.
My friend:"為什麼貓有九條命?"
Me:"唔知wor...係唔係因為有九隻貓呢??"
My friend:"哈哈,答得好...哈哈"
Me:"不如去Yahoo!知識查o下...."
Then we decide to search the answers in Hong Kong yahoo...and i typed "貓有九條命" in the search box...and here is the answer from the Yahoo!知識....
民間傳說貓有九條命。
貓咪白天睡覺夜間活動，而晚上在古代人的觀念裡，是鬼煞出沒頻繁的時刻，貓既習慣夜中活躍，不正表示牠是陰類，危險的、忌諱的，與鬼煞交往的動物？基於貓
屬「陰性」，於是，容易引起人們的敬畏。因此，表面上歡迎貓來，實際卻害怕貓懷恨討命。
「死貓吊樹頭，死狗放水流」，是一句流傳於農業社會中的俚語，它反映出台灣的兩種舊習俗。
人們不但怕活貓，貓死了也怕。一旦貓死了，更怕貓的陰魂不散。謠傳若將死貓埋於地下，受雨水滋潤沖移，露出外面曬日光，將變成妖怪，作祟害嬰兒。於是
，習俗上有「死貓吊樹頭」，將他栓住的鈸措施，等七七四十九天過後，貓屍乾僵 ，其魂魄一散，即能再出世為貓，自然不再回來討命。
至於狗，台灣人迷信狗死後，如接觸泥土（埋入地中），會吸取地氣而復活，亦變成妖怪向人作祟。設使投入水中，任其漂流，便可往生成佛，轉世做人。
事實上，「死貓吊樹頭」、「死狗放水流」，兩者都是無稽之談，但，或許因為鄉野神秘傳說，致使人們對貓、狗皆存一份敬畏，也留下許多禁忌，由是從以前
到當今，不少農村裡，竟偶爾還見到這種景象
。以現代科學眼光來看，如此處理寵物屍體，簡直不可思議，不但有礙市容觀瞻，而且臭氣沖天，蚊蠅孳生，嚴重危害環境衛生及人體健康。
貓的身手敏捷
他的身體有著絕佳的柔軟度
你可以把一隻貓的前兩隻腳或後兩隻腳
交疊在一起
狗就沒辦法了
他能夠利用身體與身俱來的優點
逃離危險逢凶化吉
所以人說貓有九條命
至於貓從高空下落下可以沒事
那個高度也要有一定的高度才夠貓咪反應調節
高處墜下受傷的貓也是有的
所以重點是
貓只有一條命
並沒有九條啦
有這種說法是因為貓有絕佳平衡感...
能從高處<大概1.2層樓>摔落而不會受傷...
因此有會有"貓有九條命"說法出現...
貓的爬高本領在家畜中可謂首屈一指。『躥房越脊』對貓來說是輕而易舉之事，有時甚至能爬到很高的大樹上去。貓在遭到追擊時，總是迅速地爬到高處，靜觀
其對手無可奈何地離去後纔下來。貓之所以能善於爬到高下低，這同它的全身構造有關。我們經常看到貓從很高的地方掉下來，而身體不會有絲毫損傷，而狗從同樣
高度掉下來的話，非死即傷，這就是人們常說的『貓有九條命』的由來。
貓從高處落下後為什麼不會受傷害呢？這與貓有發達的平衡系統和完善的機體保護機制有關。當貓從空中下落時，不管開始時即使背朝下，四腳朝天，在下落過
程中，貓總是能迅速地轉過身來，當接近地面時，前肢已做好著陸的准備。貓腳趾上厚實的脂肪質肉墊，能大大減輕地面對貓體反衝的震動。可有效地防止震動對各
髒器的損傷作用。貓的尾巴也是一個平衡器官，如同飛機的尾翼一樣，可使身體保持平衡。除此之外，貓肢發達，前肢短，後肢長，利於跳躍。其運動神經發達，身
體柔軟，肌肉韌帶強，平衡能力完善，因此在攀爬跳躍時盡管落差很大，而不會因失去平衡而摔死
after i read this article,i finally know that 重點是,貓只有一條命,並沒有九條啦..hahaha...what a good answer~

I woke up at 4:00 am this morning to finish my unfinished MatLab and HW,and right now the time is 7:27...and i still haven't finished those works yet.Is it caused by procrastination??I got no clue on it.Whenever i am struck in the problem i am working on,thinking like a long time without any inspiration,then i will start "hea"ing.In my mind,the reason for "hea"ing is to try to make my brain relax and hope to get a sudden thought of solving that problem.Nevertheless,it seems like this method does not work out at all,and i think i am addicted to "hea"ing, which cause procranstination....hope to finish it before 11:00, because i have class at 12:00
Back to what i want to say about today,i don't really want to go to class today.Not that i don't like going to leture(actually i think i don't miss much leture time of 3 classes three or four days,excluding the Matlab session),it is because i will get back my 2nd midterm for 2 of my classes i believe,both Econ(Econmetric) and Math(Linear Algebra)..I think i did badly on both of the midterms.(By seeing the answer keys of the Econ midterm,i approximatedly know how i did on it).Not that i don't spend my time on studying both subjects, i started to study a week a head before the midterms,spending most of my time in the library.if it is at before, i will use an excuse of "because last week i got 3 midterms in a row,so i can't focus on particular subject".But for now, i just believe that i am not talented on academic study.Thinking back the result from HKCEE,looking back my grades in Community College,and having so many smart students around me in UCSD,i feel like i just suck....this feeling emerged in my mind again in here when i first felt it in HS at HK,even worse...to the worst.
Dad was calling me several times this few days,telling me that he felt exhausted and weak of handling the work in the restaurant. He told me that he might quit the job and go back HK in May for taking a rest,claiming that he will go to the missionary trip with his close friend.Then,he will see if he can get a job in HK to support my brother and my life in here.For me,i think it is fair to him to quit the current job that he is in such an old age to work in a stressful and rapid envirnoment in restaurant.After my mother passed away in last year,he is just alone by himself without any friend in him to support whenever he got shouted and blamed with a chain of "fxxked"words by other workers and his boss(both husband wife)in the restaurant. Althrough there is enough money for my brother and i to study in here, it does not last long.I don't even want to think about it.
Recently,my life is involved by another person,and now i am not only thinking of myself but both of us.I don't know it is a good thing since i am already feeling tired,not tired of that person but tired of my life by having so much stuff to think and to worry about.It is just time-cosuming.As a prediction, i think there will be a certain extent of affecting my academic study.Ai...Am i doing the right thing?I am lack of energy to think(Monster and Red bull can't help much)...
After typing many words here,i want to conclude that my life is a mess in here.I miss my be-loved basketball.I miss God.I miss the time when my mom is here to teach me "social's lesson".I miss my unstressful and quiet life.Maybe it is time to think of living in the forest.
Useless Rayim is getting ready to see and to experience how messy of his life can be.
