Mix (8th of April)

After knowing we still have to go back to the medical centre a month later, she was a bit unhappy. But leading her to the shopping centre to ask about something she wanted, she became a bit cheerful like a child. We came back with two bags of fruits. And it was time for me to call MTC afterward. It might be my fault for not picking up strange calls which possibly from MTC at times, but today after I made another call to MTC in order to tell her provider to change the date of her appointment, the receptionist told us to wait for the provider's call later. Yet we once again, never receive a response from him. So I ended up calling them back the last time after a few hours of waiting, another receptionist then said they'd get her an interpreter so I don't need to go with her on that day. Despite the fact that she actually wanted me to go with her not only because I can help her to interpret, but also she will feel much calmer with my presence, this time she didn't say no to them because she didn't want them to have any doubt of anything. Problem solved. I could finally get back to my studies. Before I started my plan today, I recommended her to play 2048. Soon I downloaded that game for her. She has been enjoying playing it a lot :3...

Reading so many articles all for data and algorithm today. Not to put a whole chunk of contents here to disgust the readers with those epic readings. To summarize some of my ideas here: data serve as our partial memories, or you can say, to help us to see the blind spots in our field of vision when humans have plenty of weaknesses putting ourselves at a disadvantage to remember things happened in the past. It's using to determine every change at the present and function as the given revelation of future. So I'd say it allows comparisons and experiments much more plausible. And another term-algorithm in terms of media is equivalent to unseen assemblages, which everything should have its own agency to operate, and interact with others. We know it's there to build up the entire network but every node of the computing architecture is naturally embedded in every electronic object which we only take it for granted. Given an example here, edgerank is not a noticeable thing we see on Facebook but we feel it. Not sure if there is anyone ever wondering how affinity, time decay and weight of contents in terms of media associated with what shows on your newsfeed, because I did. Anyways, trying not to be carried away and bored my readers here, briefly saying, all these I have mentioned are according to the theory of algorithm which is unarguably benefited the content strategy by a set of analysis of collective interaction gathering from all the users.

What I said might not make sense to some particular others>.>

Just a side story before I finish this post...When one's making some comparisons between a few relatives of mine as well as saying how much she misses those old times when grandpa was still there with us, I remained silence eating my food all this time...You look through what values and traits people possess; you feel pity for one and happy for another; you have that emotion to be touched; you have your own perception to make someone your closest or furthest; you feel so much also keep so much more than you actually feel...I guess the simplest thing to keep that balance between values and emotions is to act innocent. In most cases, truism could only contaminate your soul...
