又是一个宅在宿舍的周末。为什么阿，我总是想不出来呢？DR.A 很详细地指出了我research scheme 的诸多问题，可不知道是不是因为前段时间的懒散，现在的脑袋严重堵塞中。还要赶着下周回家帮爸爸妈妈在买房的合同上签字呢。

郁闷啊，郁闷啊，不在郁闷中爆发，就在郁闷中灭亡……

   你有过早上出门穿上裤子，到了下午就会变的紧绷不舒服，或是早晨起床时眼皮、腿部浮肿，且轻压会有有凹痕疼痛感的经验吗？若出现过这些警讯，就可能表示水肿悄悄来报到……

   一般人想到「水肿」总是会认为与水喝多了，要不就是肾不好有关，事实上「水肿」指的是体内液体过多聚积在细胞间隙的状况，会造成体内水分积聚的原因主要与细胞外液及细胞内液的的钠、钾离子不平衡有关，并非与水分的摄取多寡有关，「水」因属低张性溶液，多喝水对于钠滞留体内所致的水肿，反而有改善的作用。

    容易出现水肿的部位一般来说是眼皮、脚背、脚踝及小腿，而体内会造成水肿主要是因为细胞的新陈代谢迟缓循环不良，体内囤积多余的水分，或是饮食口味过重所造成的，最明显的现象就是看起来浮肿、松垮且易手脚冰冷，你不妨测试一下腿部的肌肤，按下去如果皮肤部会快速弹回来，就表示有水分的淤积。下面教你如何一日消水肿！

9：00AM—喝薏仁水

　　单纯水分滞留所造成的浮肿，推荐饮用薏仁水，当成水喝，就能利尿常跑厕所，加上有辅助美白的功效，一举多得。

12：00PM—清淡饮食

　　错误的饮食习惯才是水肿的关键原因！少吃盐份高或是腌渍的食物才能减轻肾脏的负担，如此有助于肾脏功能的提高，促进代谢，让身体自然的排出水分及老旧废物。
3：00PM—自我按摩、适量运动

　　长时间在电脑桌前不动，尤其容易造成下半身血液回流受阻，建议就算一整天都坐着，也要每小时出去走动，拉筋纾压，对于消除水肿有不错的效果。

9：00PM—冲澡＆泡澡加速代谢

　　建议使用温水，当脚完全温热后，再冲冷水，如此反覆三次，再把身体泡浸浴缸，直到身体温暖，这样可改善因循环不佳所导致的腿部浮肿现象。

10：00PM—按摩油或纤体霜

　　洗完澡后取适量具有排水功效的按摩油或纤体霜，对小腿由下往上揉捏、按摩，让排水成份有效吸收，每晚约做15分钟，水肿情况会逐渐改善。

Hope

by Emily Jane Brontë

Hope was but a timid friend;
She sat without the grated den,
Watching how my fate would tend,
Even as selfish-hearted men.
She was cruel in her fear;
Through the bars, one dreary day,
I looked out to see her there,
And she turned her face away!
Like a false guard, false watch keeping,
Still, in strife, she whispered peace;
She would sing while I was weeping;
If I listened, she would cease.
False she was, and unrelenting;
When my last joys strewed the ground,
Even Sorrow saw, repenting,
Those sad relics scattered round;
Hope, whose whisper would have given
Balm to all my frenzied pain,
Stretched her wings, and soared to heaven,
Went, and ne'er returned again!

Hope is the Thing with Feathers

by Emily Dickinson

Hope is the thing with feathers
That perches in the soul,
And sings the tune without the words,
And never stops at all,
And sweetest in the gale is heard;
And sore must be the storm
That could abash the little bird
That kept so many warm.
I've heard it in the chillest land,
And on the strangest sea;
Yet, never, in extremity,
It asked a crumb of me.

Today I got utterly hopeless, and I could barely breath.There are too many burdens in hand.However as my anxiety could always be soothed by literary work, i searched for poetries and pictures of “HOPE”.And above are what I have found.Yes, nothing should I be afraid of with hope in hand.

I should face and fight with my fears—the fear of loneliness, the fear of failure, and the fear of…just concentrate on the work in hand, just look forward to what I can do to better my future.And for the past? Let bygones be bygones.

I opened a document file yesterday,

beneath it

found another of your name.

Hesitant,

yet curious,

I clicked it.

Read dare I not any more,

afraid to pick up memory lost,

or to be reminded,

how fine the line is,

between truth and fallacy.
