This is the annual golden week with the nine days holidays in the end of June. Regularly, most our colleague would plan go broad on this free time. However, last year, due to the corona virus crisis. Serious in all around the world, all of us could do nothing but planned the domestic travel, such as the eastern of Taiwan or outlying island. Unfortunately, this year, the pandemic have happened in Taiwan too. We can’t go anywhere but stay home. If you don’t want to waste time on watching the series or playing video game, some constructive plans have been made for this valuable period previously.
In the past, I always thought that if I have sufficient free time, I would write the technical blogger, compose the new songs or draw the 3D graphic. All above hobbies existed in my college career, because those activities were suitable and could be done by myself. In fact, nowadays, I don’t think I have to follow the hobbies in the past that I might not make the outstanding breakthrough currently. What I need to do is to make something I haven’t done before, or it might be regretted in the future. By the way, I have spent too much time on utilizing the computer to complete my daily task, so I don’t want the hobbies require the computer operation at all.
The first plan I need to conduct is to decoration my house. I had done two years ago when I moved here. There were too many rooms I had to process, so I merely dealt with the rooms which I would utilize. After two years, I had moved study to another one and combined the musical workshop and sport room. As a result, the new study required the complete adjustment especially to improve the illumination. Apart from the dining room, I also adjust the storage arrangement. The main principle is simplify, which means to hide something seldom used and throw out what would be necessary any more. Thus, we spent one morning visiting the home improvement retailing store and purchasing the lamp and related accessories. Furthermore, we were also looking for the gardening tool which we have tried in the beginning and buy a pot to expand scale in our balcony. Finally, it cost two day for me to install two tracks on the ceiling. Drilling the hole both for wood and cement haven’t difficult anymore. Most of the obstacles this time came from the finding and solving the electrical problems. After all, I cleaned the whole house completely, especially for the garage and balcony where seldom cleaned regularly.
The next two days, I focused on the photography. I have acquired new camera last year because I want the camera with lighter weight and high capability to generate the different level of depth of field. However, at the same time, I also need to abandon the telescope and wide angle lens. I hope I can optimize the parameters by capturing and improving the photos these two days. There were two major themes, one was the paddy near our house and the other one was the night scene of lake in our neighborhood. Fortunately, the weather was so well that would be suitable for me to capture pictures for natural scene. I went to paddy in the afternoon where exactly make me relax. I hanged around to recognize this secret place near our house. Then, I also finish the night scene captures which I can see how good this camera is to reduce the noise without sufficient light. After above trial, I adjusted the white balance and exposure level again. I hope it could be closed to what I want. By the way, I also want to try the crowded people and static object capture. Above these two themes require the utter different technique and it would be a part of my life in the future.
Except for above two main goals, I also planned to make the little trial in this holiday. Most of them were related to the technique. First, I installed the Linux operation in the virtual box, because I was tired of use the normal operation like the others. Second, I subscribed the trial version of stream platform including movies, music and books. The movie platform is more useful, but I already have the MOD which can also be operated on the multiple screens like TV, PC, and mobile, and all of them I had tried in these days also. The music platform is also convenient, but I usually listen to the free podcast instead of music. The books platform can collect a vast amount of books without heavily weight and space, but I still don’t get used to read books on the electrical screen.
Since Friday, there is the totally free time for me. I had done anything I want randomly. If there was the NBA or European Football Championship, I would watch them. NBA games were usually in the morning and foot ball games were in the mid night, so the holidays exactly help us to watch those games. Sometimes, I also need to deal with the client problems because they still had to work. Furthermore, if we were tired of staying home, we would drive car out in the afternoon or ride motorcycle to where we hadn’t been before. Of course, the nine days holidays will be finished soon, what I should do in the remaining time is to enjoy the free time and think of the new constructive life.
