【國立臺灣大學 109學年度畢業典禮 校長致詞】
Opening Remarks, National Taiwan University Commencement 2021
President Dr. Chung-Ming Kuan
.
各位師長同仁,各位畢業同學以及家長們,歡迎大家參加 109 學年度的線上畢業典禮。
去年新冠疫情初起,學校雖仍舉辦實體的畢業典禮,但規模大為縮小,許多師生和家長均以無法參加典禮為憾。今年初臺灣的疫情持續穩定,大家原本期待今年畢業典禮能按照往年方式辦理。不料五月時疫情急轉直下,臺北市疫情警戒程度提高,我們於是推遲畢業典禮,並改以線上方式進行。這也是臺大首次以線上方式舉辦畢業典禮。
隨著疫情發展,線上活動如今已成為生活中的新常態。我們雖逐漸習慣線上教學,線上會議,線上交流,線上購物訂餐等,但連期待了四年的畢業典禮也只能在線上參加,許多同學與家長們難免失望。為此,學務處與許多同學攜手,精心策劃了今天這場特殊的線上畢業典禮,希望能讓大家留下不一樣,但仍美好的記憶。
因為新冠疫情,有些同學會抱怨:這樣大的疫情怎麼就正好被我們在畢業時碰上了?也有些同學則樂觀的想,一旦有了疫苗,疫情得到控制,世界最終還是會回到以前的軌道,大家仍可以過著平穩安定的日子。
然而這個世界從不曾平靜。今年畢業的同學多數出生於1999 年,那正是規模達 7.3 的 921 大地震發生的那一年。時隔四年,亞洲(包括臺灣)爆發了罕見的急性呼吸道感染病 SARS。不過五年之後,源自美國的金融海嘯席捲全球,影響全世界經濟數年之久。2009 更是不平靜的一年,臺灣出現莫拉克風災,造成慘重傷亡;全球則爆發了 H1N1 流感大流行,數十萬人因此死亡。這些當時都曾被認為是數十年(甚至百年)一遇的重大災難。
回顧二十多年來的這些事件(這還僅僅是一部份與臺灣相關的事件),我們就會發現:巨大的天災人禍,過去曾頻繁出現,未來應該也不會少見。
當然,新冠疫情的影響範圍遠超過 SARS 與 H1N1 流感,對世界的衝擊則更大於金融海嘯。近代能與這次疫情相比的是一百年前 (1918-1920) 的全球流感大流行;據後來估計,當時全世界人口三分之一染疫,約有五千萬人因此不幸喪生。
那次流感爆發時正值第一次世界大戰末期,對當時的德軍主力造成嚴重打擊。而後疫情時代,戰敗的德國被列強宰割,奧匈帝國及奧圖曼帝國亦隨之瓦解,徹底改變了舊的國際秩序,也為後來的世局(從歐陸,到中東和亞洲)埋下許多不安定的種子。
這次新冠疫情並未伴隨著世界大戰,但出現在國際強權針鋒相對,世界產業供應鏈重整的關鍵時刻;後疫情時代因此充滿不確定性。而重組後的國際政經秩序,我不知道那會是一個「美好或不美好的新世界」*,但它就是大家必須面對的世界。那裡將充滿挑戰和機會,如何善用所學回應挑戰,如何從機會中脫穎而出,都是大家新的功課。這些功課沒有標準答案,你們必須自己解答,自己審閱答案。
我也希望利用這個機會提醒同學們,對於正在醫療前線奮戰的眾多醫護人員,其中包括了許多學校師長與大家的學長姐們,我們一定要心存感念。當疫情大浪襲來時,他們勇往直前,力挽狂瀾,不僅保護病人,也捍衛著臺灣社會。他們是真正的英雄。只要大家共同努力,疫情終會過去,我們一定會贏得抗疫的最後勝利。
最後,我謹代表所有老師和行政主管,向所有畢業同學們表達最深切的祝福,也恭喜辛苦多年的家長們。敬祝大家未來一切順利,身體健康
最後我還想講幾句話。我記得我看過一篇外國人寫的文章,他說他在臺灣多年,注意到臺灣有個很奇怪的習慣,朋友分手時都常常會說:「要小心哦」。我看到這篇文章的時候,也突然心有所感;多年來我媽媽每次看到我出門時會跟我講這句話,而後來我跟自己的小孩,也會講這樣的話。所以在畢業典禮這個時刻,我敬祝大家未來一切順利,身體健康,大家都要小心哦!

==============================
.
When the COVID-19 pandemic began last year, NTU was still able to hold graduation ceremonies in person but on a much smaller scale and with the absence of many faculty members, students, and parents. Earlier this year, we were hoping to gather for a traditional commencement. But the sudden outbreak in May had forced Taipei City to raise its epidemic alert level. So we postponed the Commencement and made the decision to hold the ceremony virtually. This is the first virtual Commencement in NTU history.
To our faculty, new graduates, and parents, welcome to the National Taiwan University’s Commencement celebration for the Class of 2021.
As the pandemic unfolds, digital is the new normal. While we gradually adapt to online learning, virtual meetings, social media, online shopping, and food delivery, it is inescapably disappointing for many students and parents to have to celebrate the achievements of our graduates this way after anticipating this event for four years. And because of this, the Office of Student Affairs has teamed up with the graduates to ensure that this unique virtual Commencement is a moment that everyone will remember fondly in the future.
Some of you may ask, "why does this happen just when we are graduation?" And some of you may think optimistically that once the vaccines are available and the pandemic is contained, the world will be back to normal, and that we will all live peacefully.
But the world has never been peaceful. Most of the graduates this year were born in 1999, when the magnitude 7.3 earthquake happened on September 21. Four years after, SARS broke out in Asia, including Taiwan. Within another 5 years, the financial crisis, originated in the United States, affected global economies for years. In 2009, Typhoon Morakot landed and caused severe casualties in Taiwan; the H1N1 flu pandemic took hundreds of thousands of lives. These disasters were, at the time, seen as rare catastrophes that would only take place once every few decades, or even centuries.
Looking back to the past 20 years, we’d notice that, even just in Taiwan, catastrophes have never been in short supply. And they will probably never be in the future either.
Of course, the effect of COVID is far beyond SARS and H1N1, and its impact is greater than the financial crises. What came close was the Spanish flu that took place a century ago (1918-1920), when, according to estimation, one-third of the global population was infected and about 50 million people died.
The influenza pandemic outbreak took place at the end of WWI and hit the German military especially hard. And after the pandemic, Germany was forced to cede its territories to the great powers. What followed was the fall of the Austro-Hungarian and the Ottoman Empires. The series of events reset the international order and formed the settings for many conflicts in the years to come.
While COVID did not break out during a world war, it came at a critical time when great powers bicker and the global supply chains face a reform. The post-pandemic ear is therefore full of uncertainty. I don’t know whether it’d be a "Brave New World"* once the international political and economic orders are reshuffled. But it will be a world we have to live in. There will be many challenges and opportunities, and it will be our new task to utilize what we have learned to tackle challenges and grasp opportunities. Unlike any standardize
d test, you will have to answer and grade the answers yourselves.
I also want to use this opportunity to remind the graduates, that we must have appreciation and gratitude for the healthcare workers who are on the frontlines fighting. Many of them are our faculty members and alums. When the waves of the pandemic hit, they stood up to save lives and protect Taiwan’s society. They are true heroes. As long as we work together, we will weather the crisis and win this battle.
Finally, on behalf of the faculty and management, I send you our deepest best wishes. And congratulations to the parents and families who have supported the graduates for years. I wish you success and good health.
One final thing, I remember reading an article by a foreign writer who said he had lived in Taiwan for years and had noticed that Taiwanese people have a strange habit of saying "be careful" when they part ways. When I read the article, this resonates with me from the heart. For years, my mother would say the same thing whenever I am leaving the house. Now I say the same thing to my children, too. So at this Commencement ceremony, I wish everyone great success in the future, good health, and "be careful."

同時也有1部Youtube影片,追蹤數超過0的網紅林吟蔚 Zowie's Base,也在其Youtube影片中提到,醞釀近八年,從2008超級偶像第二屆的舞台,一直到2016年底,經歷許多各種不同的演出之後,接下來,請大家繼續聽她的聲音、以及她的創作。 因為吟蔚本身就很熱愛聖誕節,所以特地選在此時,要和大家分享,由她個人詞曲創作的首支單曲與大家見面。這首Merry Xmas以流行電子的曲風,寫出對聖誕節的期待,將...
hoping句首 在 君子馬蘭頭 - Ivan Li 李聲揚 Facebook 的精選貼文
[宏願縱未了 奮鬥總不太晚]其實都係個人喜好啫,不用上綱上線。
TLDR:埃汾唔買錶。扯,手得兩隻,戴得幾多隻?都唔明啲人買咁多隻做乜。不過男人賓周都得一條,但個個想三妻四妾,OK你唔係咁膚淺你係神交唔係性交,但你個腦都係得一個啫。
1. 華爾街日報(我是付費訂戶,幾抵睇)選中埃汾做survey!梗係kai 先啦,粗身People喎,可以做猶太皇民喎。
2. 咁但,明顯地,華爾街日報冇偷睇我啲FB Post,或者小朱冇賣我嘅data畀佢地,或者仲未識睇廣東話。
3. 應該寫過幾次(https://fbook.cc/3HK5)(https://fbook.cc/3HK6),埃汾係唔戴錶嘅,由2008年8月後就冇再戴(你可以估下點解係2008年8月,後記解)(*)。500蚊美金隻蚊?真係所託非人。我成世夾埋買錶都未用到500蚊美金,除非你計埋部電話
4. 當然啦,自己唔戴,都可以買嚟收藏嘅。香港人嘅理想係ISSEY MIYAKE三宅一生嘛,一層炒一層住一層收租嘛。同樣地,我聽啲炒家朋友(OK,佢地話係「收藏家」),波鞋紅酒都係咁玩。波鞋就一對著一對炒一對收藏,紅酒就一支飲一支炒(怕且唔係炒牛尾)一支收藏。「如果女都可以係咁就好」。又,香港人對個三字真係有異常嘅執著,果然個個前世都係日本人,你知日本乜鬼都要三大乜乜,御三家是也。牛肉飯都有御三家,吉野家Sukiya同松屋,養錦鯉都要大正三色昭和三色(而呢兩又正係「錦鋰御三家」嘅兩款,可惜並冇平成三色或者令和三色),我真係醉了。
5. 不過本人,其實近乎係唔收藏任何嘢的。投資就只係股票同樓,「仲有投資落自己度」。勉強講,咪有金幣,十幾廿萬咁啦(梗係港紙),完全唔係乜。
6. 但,作為一個盡責又玩嘢嘅用戶,我都有照參加個survey!結果佢問「有幾多隻五舊水嘅錶」,我照揀「一隻都冇」,就GG了!
7. 其實,咁多隻錶,手就最多得兩隻(除非你係八爪魚),有多嘅肯定就係炒啦。正如屋都係,有兩間屋嘅肯定係炒家啦,我地一齊鄙視佢地。
8. 不過諗真啲話又唔係咁講,係呀,「手得兩隻」。但,賓周得一條添,啲有錢佬咪又係要三妻四妾,晚晚換情人床頭燈餐餐照唔同人理過癮(識唱一齊唱)(**)。你見啲愛情動作片咪又係要3P 4P,幾時都係貧窮限制想像力(***)。
9. 其實講到尾都係個人喜好,中產很多就係麻撚煩(我冇話我唔係),要人認同嘛。之前Punch Magazine就如此形容Middlebrow(當然同中產唔係完全一樣),係咩人? It consists of people who are hoping that some day they will get used to the stuff they ought to like. 自己細味下。有幾多人迫自己鍾意飲紅酒?
10. 中產嘛,唔好虧代自己(****),冇隻勞點似樣?我阿爺我老豆都好似咁同我講,但我幾時有聽過佢地講嘢?我令田家(*****)絶後都係咁啦。
11. 都係,喜好同價值觀啫,我有個朋友(是真的),同條女意大利,餐飯又幾千銀,開支酒都幾千銀—但佢為咗酒店平兩百蚊港紙住到遠一遠,睇博物館就等星期一定二免費。我舉呢個例唔係批判佢,而係,都係價值觀啫。可能每個人心中都有啲洗錢行為,係其他人不能理解嘅。姐係,我覺得人買隻錶嘥錢,人地一樣可以覺得我買報紙嘥錢—問題係我又訂電子版又買印刷版喎!歷年嚟,都夠我多買幾隻錶啦
12. 所以,好煩,但再講多次,好多時都係喜好同價值觀嘅問題。咁喜好價值觀就無分對錯嘅,「雖然有啲人鍾意睇人獸交,有啲人鍾意睇小朋友,都係一種品味啫,無分對錯嘛」。
13. 最後一講,我唔知價,但,「5舊水美金叫fine watch,香港會唔會畀人笑?」。又,講明係mechanical timepiece,明顯踢走啲iWatch撚,雖然我連iWatch幾錢都唔知(都話2008年開始冇戴錶,iWatch都係錶)
(*)冇錯係北京奧運,但只係咁啱。實情我係嗰年考CFA Level III 兼Pass,資深讀者應該知到。咁,唔使再考試,就唔使再戴錶。
(**)咁就三十年(https://ggle.io/3Xoh),又,首歌夠晒有前瞻性,「鬼妹賓記南韓亞太各國統統有我份」,早就預言韓妹堀起,雖然我估只係歌詞啱音夾硬填入去,「南韓」咪「亞太」一部份,但做人唔好太過古德明。又,識睇當然係睇柏安妮,當年佢拍埋呢套嘢就引退,而家變咗Ann Bridgewater,真係Trouble over Bridgewater,而梁家輝梁朝偉甚至鄭丹瑞事隔三十年都仲係十分活躍,唔知好事定壞事。
(***)分享少少,真實朋友知,但呢度好似冇講。埃汾老豆呢,當年只係一個地盤佬,一樣可以兩頭家。貧窮並冇限制佢嘅想像力,證明我冇想像力係我問題。
(****)呢個typo係專登的, Google下你就明,特登打錯字,向返原文致敬。正如Will Smith套戲叫The Pursuit of Happyness,而我去春園街食
鹵八鵝店打卡都係呢句The Pursuit of Happyness,套戲有話你知點解戲名串鈤字,正如《高海拔之戀II》有話你知點解冇I,《狂舞派3》有話你知點解冇2(我估亦受向《高海拔之戀II》致敬)。正如埃汾會寫「外資切尼」「姿色改變命運」「春風化乳」「有教無淚」「有口皆悲」等等。
(*****)埃汾本姓田,another story

hoping句首 在 郭莉芳 X 理財講堂 Facebook 的精選貼文
去年底新增了一個身分--Lyricist,作詞人,
幫公勝保經撰寫企業歌的中文歌詞,彷彿是一種職業病,從此就會認真地聽歌詞。這一支Schroders的影片很感人,歌也很美,取名是The Joy of Sorrow.
而歌詞我是聽到了那句「We all learn more from pain......」引起了想要知道整首歌詞的興趣。
才意外地發現,這支影片不是英國總公司製作,而是台灣Schroders施羅德投信的出品(天啊,真是令人欣羨的企業行銷預算啊~)而作詞作曲也是本土優秀的人才。謹把歌詞貼在下方,大家有空都可以欣賞一下這支影片,洋蔥很多啊!
The Joy of Sorrow
詞:蔡柏璋 曲/中譯:羅恩妮
吉他:董運昌 人聲:柯智棠 Kowen
We’re all living, we’re all dying 活著,為了消亡
We’re all simple but complicated 單純,也需要偽裝
We’re hiding, yet craving to be found 逃避,又痴想被揭穿
We’re all hurting, we’re all wounded 信念粉碎,遍體鱗傷
We’re all awake but unaware 無論有意無意
Learning the joy of sorrow 都在學著,如何與哀傷共存
We’re all pure, we’re all blended 無色,也是混濁
We’re all envious but content 貪婪,但也知足
We’re suffered, yet somehow entertained 受苦,仍不忘自嘲
We’re all generous, we’re all selfish 慷慨,但無法無私
We cross our hearts 只能祈願
hoping to die with the joy of sorrow 終能理解,苦澀的況味
We all learn more from pain 痛苦使人茁壯
We all smile while tears sneak in 嘴角揚起才好承接淚水
We all grin even when the world turns its back on us 即便被世界遺棄也望坦然
We’re like a pure flame, living by an invisible sun within us 我們像是淨火,只要心中陽光不滅
We’re all lost, we’re all determined 迷惘有時,堅定有時
We’re all traitors but not haters 轉身,卻還心懷念想
We’re silent, yet not completely mute 沈默,但非噤口不言
We’re all flawed, we’re all perfect 眼看缺陷,眼看無瑕
We’re all patiently impatient 我們耐心的隱忍
Waiting for the joy of sorrow 等待,磨難後的清明
We all learn more from pain 痛苦讓人茁壯
We all smile while tears sneak in 嘴角揚起才好承接淚水
We all grin even though the world turns its back on us 即便被世界遺棄也望坦然
We’re like a pure flame, living by an invisible sun within us 我們像是淨火,只要心中陽光不滅
We’re all proud, we’re all humble 既驕傲,也卑微
We’re eloquent but incoherent 好言,但條理難辨
We’re happy, yet oddly find it unbearable 快樂,卻無法由衷
We’re all young, we’re all mature 年輕,又似老成
We’re all blessed but often doomed 被眷顧,但也註定
Yearning to grasp the joy of sorrow 渴望汲取,來自哀傷的喜悅

醞釀近八年,從2008超級偶像第二屆的舞台,一直到2016年底,經歷許多各種不同的演出之後,接下來,請大家繼續聽她的聲音、以及她的創作。
因為吟蔚本身就很熱愛聖誕節,所以特地選在此時,要和大家分享,由她個人詞曲創作的首支單曲與大家見面。這首Merry Xmas以流行電子的曲風,寫出對聖誕節的期待,將帶給大家截然不同的聖誕歌曲風,用她跳躍而甜美的嗓音,為人們唱出夢想、希望和愛。
希望你們會喜歡,全新出擊的搞怪甜心,林吟蔚。

In the midnight.

There are wishes hanging under the christmas tree

Hoping this world that people care about each other and understanding
Merry Xmas!

Opening your heart and embarrass everyday in the future
願望會實現
You will head to your destination
