散步：ZaBu

昨日下午大大的太陽，涼爽的天氣~
與 lila 到師大商圈的某另一邊隨意走走.
領著他, 我們穿梭在各小巷裡~

找不到我的"小白兔音樂行" 以及 某天意外發現的一家手工皮革工作室~
或許搬了~

在小巷的盡頭，
一間小店門口的一只充滿痕跡的旅行用黑木箱抓住我眼光,
一邊的一堆文藝活動文宣也讓我看得很愉快;
我們討論著要到哪裡看 《昨日的記憶》：愛，未被遺忘...
接著, 目光游移, 磁磚, 白底, 被深海藍花邊包圍的字母 Z A B U.
驚訝的對著 lila 說: 是ZABU耶!
lila 一臉不解的表情...
"ZABU, 我想去看看這間有趣的店" 的念頭自我在網路上, 三年前?, 看過 blog 後就有~
關於這種特色小店,
我總不特意把地圖畫進本子裡,
只記下所在區域, 如, ZABU -> 師大附近,
接著, 等待某天的不期而遇~ :)

我說 "我們進去喝杯咖啡吧~"
推開小小的門, 踏進擁擠的空間,
悶熱的空氣朝我沖來.
但那感覺很快便讓隻高舉尾巴慵懶行走, 帶著認真表情, 的貓分散~

挑了兩人座的位置.
靠窗, 魚缸邊.
倚著魚缸, 恰可稍稍舒緩悶熱空氣帶來的不適感~

"MaoYing 會不會剛好在著附近?"
於是播了通電話....
在台中~

點了 瓜地馬拉(特選).
小野洋子, 是我對煮咖啡那女孩第一眼的感覺~
她很仔細的介紹每種咖啡的特性.
或許太久沒自己買豆子,
已忘記 "太野" 這的感覺 (smile, shrug)~
那磨成粉的香味也算久違了.....

這兒的書籍, 我很是喜歡,
挑了幾本和 建築, 80年代的經典設計, 舊傢俱, ...相關的雜誌
在小沙發上還算舒適的讀著~

這有兩個大大的音響和掛在牆上失去另外五個面的一片(算是障板?)音響~

溫度, 空氣, 和音樂 讓我想起了電影裡 60's 的嬉皮們.
(more -> Taking Woodstock)

這咖啡, Excellent!
邊抄寫著某間店的地址, 心中對著自己說.

Nixie Ramos Alarm

What a fantastic and brilliant design!
yap, the Nixie tube clock, snooze bottom, combination codes, ...
neither of they is a new idea, but that's what makes this product looks so ... attractive!
I LOVE it but don't like the price (USD 350) at all ^^"

Leather DIY --- A Leather Cover for iPod Classic

I spent around 1 hr for this cover.
those locations and sizes of holes are not precise enough.... :)
I just wanna do something at the moment... and wanna finish it as soon as possible ~
so it what it is ^~^

這是年假某天完成的 iPod Classic 保護套~
之前買的那個假皮的保護套其表面已經碎裂好一陣子了.
剛好趁年假的某天, 撿些用剩的碎皮, 極迅速的完成這套子~

當時只想儘快完成它 ^^:
所以那些孔沒開得很精準，但完全不影響使用的啦~~~~

LeatherCraft --- Skiving // 皮革削薄

一直想找個工具來應付用偶爾玩皮時需要的削薄工作~

這一種像水果削皮刀的式樣, 我試過一次, 對我來說, 不大順手 = ="

這種的, 目前還沒機會試用; 但看了 youtube 的 demo clips...

感覺應該和上面那種差不多~

於是.... 想到了木工用的鉋刀!!!!! :))))

(皮革削薄介紹)

google 了一下, 還真的有人在賣皮革專用的鉋刀!

露天拍賣(link):

因為它是鉋刀 XDDD 所以蠻吸引我的!

但, 我用過一把日本高速鋼鋸板磨成的接木小刀來切皮革 & 削薄,

感覺那鋒利度似乎沒有很持久 冏~ (可能是我磨刀的問題也說不定)

所以上面這支由 "優質高速工具鋼"做成刀刃, 有點讓我沒信心 ^^a

然後....

<台中大司細木工>

TrtansPost --- Climate Action

Would you throw garbage on the table you eat on?

 So why do people forget where their food comes from?

Share if you know where you come from.

Original Post --> [Facebook]

I absolutely agree with  that~ :))

As I know, landfill operation and trash incinerator are two major methods to 

dispose what we toss out, in my country.

For landfill operation, leachate is the major problem to deal with;

for combustion, problems are ash and suspended particle.

Obviously, there are no perfect solutions for deposing of garbage.

What can we do are to treasure everything we have and do not waste anything....

hm... like do not use disposable tableware, don't buy/cook exceedingly what you can eat, ...

and when you taking a napkin or facial tissue... think again... do you really need a new one...

Photo --- How to Write a Reading-Note

I made a cup of coffee for myself and wrote
a summary of a Wallace Academic Writing article,
after hearing a shitty news....


Title: Make a Note
I. Make a List of relating questions:
1. Revise what you have known: lectures, notes, ...
2. Outlining answers you're going to find out
3. Choose a interested point, and make out drafts for the point.
4. Looking for relating references. 


II. Do not transcribe overly:
1. Only write the main concepts and conclusions (by your words).
2. Do not use highlight, and post-in excessively.
3. Elaborate & precise description is not essential unless you   
   would use it in your essay/paper.. 


III. Label your notes:
1. Label your notes with authors' names, #pages, ..
2. Organize your notes & cards separately, for rearranging all of 
   your notes one day. 
3. Leave blanks between each line, for adding your comments, .. in  
   the future.


Tip:
Reading paragraph by paragraph -> 
close your book ->
write a conclusion for each paragraph.


Now, feel better~
