我是一个怕成为舞台中心的人，就喜欢在后面凑个热闹什么。结婚的时候就没的选了，来了那么多朋友，劳烦大家真是不好意思。下午孔洁和他可爱的老公还专门陪我们去卢浮宫和杜丽舍花园拍照，感动感动。天气很冷，大概零度左右，穿着婚纱招摇过市，冻得牙齿发抖，所幸天气还不错。不时被游客当作移动景观拍照留念。呵呵，能分享快乐还是很开心的一件事。
不知道结过婚的其他人对结婚有什么感觉，我的感觉是，完全没有感觉。回家用最快的速度换上舒服的牛仔裤和套头衫，喝杯热巧克力然后倒头大睡。幸福就是这平平淡淡的生活贝。

第一个婚礼
昨天结婚了，是我的第一个婚礼。难道婚礼还有几个？不错，领证是第一个，教堂里算一个，还要回上海请亲戚朋友们吃个饭什么的。婚纱能穿三次，真是物有所值。

[08-11-26] 日内瓦一日
一大早爬起来 4:50，天还没亮 （反正巴黎的冬天对我们来说是没有阳光的，早上出门天还没亮，晚上回来已经乌漆抹黑了）。冲到Gare de Lyon 和大部队集合，大家都穿得非常Chic。
我们班的美女们
三个小时火车到日内瓦，今天的目的地 － 传说中Richemont （立峰集团）总部。日内瓦三年前来过一次，当时在联合国参观了一下，听了个小小的Presentation就匆匆的走了。这次也是匆匆忙忙，直奔日内瓦郊区的Richemont。为什么LVMH的总部在赫赫有名的巴黎 Super Luxury的大街 Avenue Montaigne 而 Richemont 确在日内瓦的乡下？ 这个问题可能跟公司的文化也有关系，本人一向偏爱 Richemont，比较内敛。
Richemont 的总部很漂亮，像个巨大的阳光房，安安静静的坐在那里。听了HRD的Presentation （快要睡着），吃了顿不错的Buffet（我不太喜欢，太冷了）。 然后去参观 Piaget 的工厂，我最喜欢的手表品牌之一。看到真实的手表制作过程，很是兴奋。
可爱的 Taeko

[08-11-25] 解压
Essec的设施还是不错，见大头照两张，分别在Essec图书馆和Essec一个叫Foy’s的学生酒吧。B-school的图书馆旁边有酒吧，这种事情也只有法国会有。经常一大早在校门口被穿着怪异的一年级生吓倒，一大早就开始Party了⋯⋯
ESSEC library ( now)
Essec bar ( foy's, last month)上个星期我们联合把Leadership的老师炒了，今天来了新的老师，比原来的好。也是人身坎坷过后的女强人，自己开了Consulting公司，也是Essec的校友。今天的话题是，如何处理压力。我的压力指数测试还是很低的，100的算比较正常，我82，我们班最低的46， 很认真的日本女生Sonoko有190。今天学会了深呼吸，和矿泉水，按摩等一些解压方式。新的老师至少不要做很无聊的功课，比较Relaxing，还不错。

[08-11-14] 很累
昨天读了学长Chris一年的Blog崇拜的五体投地。似乎我是在重复他去年所走过的路，这么久又这么快。这两个月的紧张课程害得我们连睡觉的时间都没有了，好像自己也没有认真的学点什么，但也就被拔苗助长起来习惯了MBA的节奏。可惜荒废了很久Blog和我的游记，有空再写。
今天Simon的Quantitive Research 把Dupont的校友拉了来，要听听大家的意见Dupont要不要Launch一款新的电脑包。个人觉得一般，对Dupont但可以填充这块市场的空缺。以500欧的零售价来说还是值得的，至少比LV的塑料包对我有吸引力。明天有Managing People的Presentation， 我们的话题是近期的社会问题“简历作假”。还有一个关于四季酒店在莫斯科的HR Plan，至今没开始动笔，明天deadline。哎，习惯了，最后一分钟的我阿。记得明天要穿正装，后天五点要起床去日内瓦Richemont总部参观。对了我的法语有长进，虽然也没有时间学，但居然一着急起来就能用法语跟人家讨论比较复杂的事情，自己都吓一跳。巴黎好冷，很少看见太阳⋯⋯

[08-08-17, Sun, Sunny] another half year
em... need to find a language to express myself more thoroughly. Definitely not English, either Chinese, no French, noway Japanese. maybe not human language, but let's see.
又过了半年
停止思考的半年
停止思考也不错
至少会像一块海绵
多一些时间吸水
My one year schedule:
Sep 2007 : TAGEMAGE
法语的GMAT，总分400，我考了惨不忍睹的278。考试费1300元，不幸分数太底，只能再考GMAT。考试的时候华东五省一市只有2个人考试，还有一个是广州外国语学院法语专业的小弟弟，到底是专业的，340分。Anyway，考Tagemage只是为了人生的完整，我的法语还差的很远。考过之后法语阅读水平大幅提高。不过还是乖乖看GMAT去。
Oct: TOEIC
裸考900分，考前买了本考试样卷书，才18元，考试费才350，比起TOEFL省事省力省钱，考商学院的xdjm绝对应该考虑。
Dec: GMAT
买了 1米高的书 (正版加盗版一共才300人民币，发誓不让新东方再赚钱）
到11月份才有空翻开看了一下，才发现GMAT远没有我想像的简单，没准备好，延期一个月。
Jan: GMAT
香港回来，离考试还剩10天，还是没准备好，再延期一个月
Feb: GMAT
春节根本没过，天天睡到下午三点，看书到早上六点
遇上雪灾，上海的雪景倒很是不错
借口提高英语水平看完和听完了7本Harry Porter，外带温习前5部电影
完成了7年来的心愿好好看了一边4册新概念英语
延到不能再延，硬着头皮去考，上海都订满了，还得飞去广州考
数学满分，当然是因为机经法宝，语文依然惨不忍睹，总分650，吃不饱也饿不死
借考试之便看了深圳的海景，海，在GMAT之后似乎宽广了许多
Mar: IELTS
不幸被告知ESSEC MBA一定要IETLS或者TOEFL，所以赶忙又裸考了一次IELTS
总分7.5，但想不通为什么我口语只有6.5，三年前我跟老外都不太敢说英语的时候倒有7分，现在老油条了倒只有6.5，显然IELTS也不是传说中的那么准
打包所有英语书，bye～
Mar: Essay
Essay 原来一点都不比考试简单，或者只能怪我写文章太差
幸亏在关键的时候遇到高人指点，赶在deadline前一天发了出去
Apr: Job Interview
很偶然地在奢侈品表行业得到一份工作，再没有了考试的压力，觉得很幸福，很轻松
luxury party by party
May: ESSEC Interview
7个面试官的车轮面试大战，ESSEC LUXE 的director和校友们
面试在恒隆广场LVMH的办公室，幸亏刚知道什么才是真正的luxury watch, blahblah一番
June: Acceptance
本来觉得没什么希望了，突然就来录取通知了
反而有些失落和彷徨，新工作刚上手新同事们很好老板们也很好
学费超贵， 28w 一年，学制一年，希望没有奖学金还能活下去
July Aug: Resign，Visa
法国的留学签证一定是步骤最多的了，跟法国的低效行政有的一拼
先送CampusFrance 等3个星期
最后一个星期告诉我要补交学历公正，再等一星期
然后送VisaFrance
需要的材料跟网上有很大出入，他们只能怪法领馆一直不更新（内部机构的互相指责也是法国的一大特点），没什么好商量，继续补交
再送法领馆等10天左右
再送去了补交材料，目前签证还没拿到，god bless⋯⋯
经过了压抑色调的一年，今年的色调会不太一样吧
十天后我应该会等上去巴黎的飞机吧
ESSEC 奢侈品管理 MBA应该会很有意思吧
塞那河还是和三年前一样美丽吧
对法国的盲目爱恋已经大有改变吧
拉德芳斯的生活希望不会太无聊吧
至少三年前许下的巴黎愿望渐渐有些清晰了吧

[08-01-22, Tue, Cloudy]Suzhou again
It's been a long time since my last word written on my blog, 2 months, so fast.
Life isn't very sweet these months, don't know why, a little depressed.
- One Christmas trip to Hongkong with Elle, so called honeymoon.
- Addicted to facebook for a while, and abandoned my old friend blog.
- Preparing GMAT, postphoned again and again, now have to take it next month in Guangzhou, deadline.
- Some serious business movements after a long depression period, cannot be too lazy being entrepreneur. Warn you it is not easy, really.
- Still worrying about a lot of things, but feeling more relaxed then one month before. Anyway i feel i am always a lucky dog with a lot of really good people and good friends supporting me in one way or another.
- Cathy and Vivien, my two best friends are getting married, happy for them. The husbands to be are both not bad.
In Suzhou again, i love this city, where you get a lot of energy, as well as the space to think and live.

spent 3 hours on facebook haha, good way to waste time.
i am getting a bit upset these days, worrying about a lot of stuff.
maybe the best way to get rid of worry and fear is to work, so just work and do not think much.

[07-11-11, Sun, Sunny] Prison break, Kings of Convenience, Single day
It is said that today is single day, hmmm, would enjoy it :) Living up-side-down life still, shifting from US hour, EU hour, AU hour. Last night i slept from 9pm to 2pm and then 2 hour Linkin Park ( how could my neighbors not have killed me?) and 2 hour Chopin noctune with GMAT books.
Finally finished Prison Break yesterday, i feel there is always a weird compulsory gene in my blood which forces me to finish something that i have started and i've been loving, though meaningless most of the time. Until someday i do not love it anymore, like relationship, like my CS career and my school, and finally say "phew", it's over, i can put it down now. Prison Break is getting nonsense in Season III, maybe from Season II. do they know what they are talking about themselves? As Sarah is dead because the actress is pregnant? Wish it could come to an end ASAP, before it's getting too long and losing the chance of being written in the history. . Anyway, it's finished, 2 weeks in my life.
Recently i am loving another music band from Noway "Kings of Convenience". Indie pop.
Listen to this, isn't it beautiful? Listen carefully and you will hear the wind from the mountain of their hometown. Reminds me of someone in this cold and mysterious country...

[07-11-03, Sat, Sunny] 115 year anniversary of Shanghai No. 3 Girls' Middle School
5 Years again! The year i entered this girls' middle school, it was celebrating her 101 year anniversary, now she is 115. Time is killing.
Review My School Days:
Grass Field
Stone Chair
Qi (middle) , Lulu (right) and Me (left)
Qi and Me
School Uniform
Today, I went back to school with my best friends Qi and Lulu in high school. Trees are as green, buildings are as tasty and gorgeous, classroom, piano room, library... Football pitch has been rebuilt to a modern look. Old and familiar faces though never taught us before, young and sunshine faces as we were, doing the same things we did for our school anniversaries years ago. We hated it, coming back to welcome the old alumini on Saturday, but today i become the guest. Every tiny thing is making me feeling nostalgic.
Had a long lunch with Qi, when lulu went back with her cousin. Same as before. Our beautiful princess Qi in school age is getting married, new life ahead for everyone...

[07-10-28, Sun, Cloudy] TOEIC test, Grandes Ecoles Workshop
TOEIC test today, actually it is harder than i excepted, but should be fine. I am happy to find an alternative test of TOEFL, haha, much easier to register and much cheaper :D
I indulged myself in the novel "Digital Fortress" some days ago. Dan Brown, the same writer as "Davinch Code", who can amaze you always with the game of figures and psychology.
French School workshop for three days. I had some appointments with my dream schools, HEC, ESSEC, etc., the programs are quite interesting, so what i should conquer is gmatgmatgmat...
Had lunch and afternoon tea with Naoi and his friend, a kawaii Japanese girl, and her handsome English boyfriend. Nice afternoon.
Forced myself to play once, and the first time, the whole piece of Mozart's "Twinke Twinke Little Star", 24 pages. it's not too hard to have something finished, no? Why have i been always escaping from the obstables? I feel released when i close the piano, same as when i close a book.
My Allicance Francaise card is finally expired, i think will not return in quite a long time, like saying goodbye to my univeristy life. Nostalgic but life is moving on. Well, it's not too bad to be lonely, just look forward.

[07-10-23, Mon, Cloudy] another stressful week
Hard to breath this week, everyday stuffed with things to do, big things, little things, important or nonsense.
Went to school today and had a coffee with Richard at my favorite SPR cafe, a place full of memory. The administration people in school are really arrogant and impolite, sh*t! Have to go twice, maybe more times. TOEIC test this Saturday, haven't prepared at all. GMAT in December, haven't prepared either. I bought a stack of book in New Oriental today, which is heavy enough to kill myself. Also a lot of work to do, emergency to handle...
Well, that's my shitty life. I feel like to give up sometimes when really tired and frustrated, but when i woke up, i got recharged and keep rolling. Emotion and passion, they will be my big enemy and intimate friend forever i guess. ok, carry on, make it work!

[07-10-13, Sat, Windy] ohlalala, suzhou!
Finally i am in suzhou again, one of my favorite city! I planned to stay 4 days, but probably longer. I will take time to finish all the things i wanted to do.
I call this a working vacation, everything is so nice here, the environment, the people, the rhythm, even bought some new clothes yesterday as i really didn't have time to go shopping.
Work till 2am everyday at least, but don't feel tired at all. I will cook some spagatti today for my friends, yamiyami!

It's getting cold.
I drink a lot of coffe.
I work blindly, racing with time.
I get rid of people and things which i realize is a waste of time.
I miss my friends, no matter where they are.
I keep alone, but not lonely.
Well, finally, i feel a little grown up.

[07-10-03, Wed, Sunny] Golf, Xiao Fei Yang
Well, i felt i cannot stay at home anymore. Maybe because of the lazy atmosphere, maybe because the autumn sun is shining beautifully outside, maybe because my PDA has no battery left. So i went back in the afternoon, suddenly felt better.
Met Ronnie for the golf session in the eve, I don't like golf honestly. A bit boring. And then Xiaofeiyang for dinner. Afterwards, Ronnie grabbed some of my dear books, and i had to work again. :'(

[07-10-02, Tue, Sunny] Home, Work, Piano, DVD
It's been a long time i haven't slept at home. Home is home, feeling i can do nothing except sleep. Maybe some dvd and piano. Nice dishes by mom of course. That's my day.
[07-10-01, Mon, Sunny] National Holiday, Dinner at Grandpa's
National Holiday, nothing special. Slept till noon after my first drunk experience, woke up for some food and some cleanup, and continued sleeping...
Family gathering as usual, nice dinner at Granpa's. Went home with mom.

[07-09-30, Sun, Sunny] ShARE big party at my home
ShARE-Fudan and ShARE-SJTU reunion party at my home tonight! Haven't prepared anything, but anyway i am not the organizer today. Thanks to Jimmy and Samuel, the party turned out quite nice. I invited Ivan, the Russian pianist, and Victoria, the Russian gorgeous also, so it turned out quite interesting hearing Russian and discussing Russian history all the time. And what's more? Finally i am drunk for the first time! Not really drunk perhaps. But really really dizzy and could not walk straight. I waited till my last guest was gone, and i climbed up the stairs, and i slept till noon.
[07-09-29, Sat, Sunny] Rock Concert, Iran food
Rock concert tonight with Adrien, at Alliance Francaise. The band is called "Martin Rewki et Les Employes Du Mois", they are from Lausanne, hey i have been there! Their music and little stories are very Lausanne style, which remind me of the beautiful lake and Chateau de Chillion. And what a surprise to meet my Tagemage examiner in the concert!
Afterwards, dinner with Payman and his Friends at an Iran restaurant, as Payman is originally from Iran. Met a gorgeous Russian girl, Victoria during the dinner.

[07-09-28, Fri, Cloudy] Film Club: Mortelle Randonée, Dinner Chez Thierry
Sound sleep of 12 hours after the fking test. Recharged.
Went to AF film club to see another interesting French film: Mortelle Randonée. I can always be shocked by the hidden, weird, profound desire of human nature exposed in French films. That's a real difference between French movies and American Movies. The latter is usually light for brain, delicious for ears and eyes, and nothing left for health after being swallowed, just like the typical American fast food. Well, we need both, that is life, can neither be too light nor too heavy.
Afterwards, went to Thierry's home and had Friday dinner with about 10 French teachers of Alliance Francaise. Thierry's wife Andry cooked us a very nice dinner. And i had a good time playing with his little dog and little cat. Missing Jean-Phil, it would be even nicer if he was there.

[07-09-27, Thu, Cloudy] My Tagemage Test
ok, finally comes the day. My Tagemage test. Tagemage is a French version GMAT, including 6 sub-tests : Logic, Maths, Reading, Expression, Reasoning, and Minimum Condition. After the 3 week preparation, i am still far away from a good score i know. Tagemage is for those who have studied French professionally for 3 years or more, so it is surely not easy for me. But anyway i am happy my French reading has surely been improved a lot during the 3 weeks.
now the test. I am so surprised that there appeared only 1 candidate with me taking the tagemage test. Normally there is only one session in March, but they added one in Sep this year. Maybe no one knows it yet? Or no one is prepared? Actually there should be 3 candidates in all, but another girl never appeared.
The test is hard as can be foreseen. You can never have time for a little pause during the whole session, 2 hours, 6 sub-tests, 20 mins for each sub-test and 1min and 15 sec for each question. Honestly speaking, it is nothing less than a marathon! Luckily the examiner is quite nice, who can smooth our mood with her big smile, and at least we can breath in some fresh air when she reads the useless terms between each sub-test. Another candidate is a boy who just flied from Guangzhou for this test, who is a 4th year French major student, holalala, i am sure he can do better than me. But that also means, for half of the China, there are only him and me, 2 candidates for this Tagemage test. Interesting...

Life is quite stressful these days. Work, French, Sleep, Eat, Work, French, Sleep Eat.
I woke up on my Japanese style bed, which is just a cushion on the floor. I looked up and suddenly found my bedroom is so pretty that i have to record it when i still have it. Why i am getting nostalgic easily these days?

[07-09-22, Sat, Drizzle] Alfa departs, Caro's Cocktail Birthday Party, Thomas departs next week
The Typhoon is gone without being noticed, like my busy week. This could have been a horrible week, i am happy i got through quite busy and well, not too much emotion for the departure of friends and the pressure of my coming exam.
I found people can surely get less emotioal and objective with French Rock music, like "Noir Désir". Is it good or bad? I am becoming much better organized and a bit inhuman with my sentimental feelings. Who pa who? At the mean time i am giving more time and care for my friends indeed, friends that are a bit far away from my life now.
Alfa is leaving today, we had a last coffee together at my jungle palace, still cannot help my tears with a Chinese Song: Dear Friend. We are so lucky to have known each other, to have learnt from each other, to have supported each other, even to hurt each other, which will lead to a life-long treasure for our career and life. Well, he will be far away from me now, we will be striving alone now. But nothing will change, we will still be hearing from each othe often, with the rude and childish beginning of conversation : "T'es qui?!" (who are you?!)
Caro's birthday party tonight, will go with Thomas, who is also leaving next week. Oki, 2 of us 4 will be in Paris now. We should all be strong to realise the promise, i mean Lilian, Thomas, Yves and me, to geather in Paris next year! So be strong, carry it on!
The party turned out quite nice. Besides the normal party things, Caro is a specialist of cocktails. We tried out more than 10 types of cocktails, French food and great homemade cakes in a few hours. Beautiful French life, hein?

[07-09-18, Tuesday, before Typhoon] n'y a pas grand chose avant le Typhoon...
Life is like on the TGV these days, no time to sleep, no appetite to eat, no social life, no dvd.
packing everything of my life and work systematically like photo, namecards, knowledge, documents and focusing on buiding new structures... i like the word "systematically", which is perfect for a perfectionist. Either do it systematically or do nothing.
My Tagemage test in 9 days, not prepared as usual. I want to die, but still weirdly believe everything will be fine.
Jean-phil has been back in France, had a BBQ party last Thursday in Thierry's home. Great terrasse, back at 2:30am in the middle of the party. my teachers are crazy!
Alfa will be back in 4 days, but what a pity we both don't have anymore time to spend together. I looked back 2 months, feeling myself completely not the same now, which i should thank to him also.
Typhoon is coming...

[07-09-08, Sat, Coudy] Farewell and Welcome party!
Finally the day of the party. I hided away the whole day doing something simple. Cooking, eating, reading... good.
Party starts at 20:30pm, wow, it came out more better than i thought, got more than 50 guests in my jungle. Well, there is so many reasons for this party, farewell to Jean-phil, Alex, Thomas, Lily, and welcoming yiwei back to Shanghai. Many long time no see university friends came also, so happy to get together again after years.
I found some nice music by accident for the party, the band is called "Linkin Park".
Afterwards, went to watch Football Match in a bar with Jean-phil, Alex and bibi. Never like football, but i like the atmosphere watching football together with friends...
