今日要闻：和导师商量center salons 的相关事情。

提出了一些想法。（参看笔记本）

排出了一年内的featured authors

为中心即将创办的期刊定了名。New Chinese Writing: the Journal of Sinophone Literature

最近邮件和导师学了不少词。

rota轮值表

Would you have time perhaps on Wed (11am??) to have a quick meeting? As I mentioned we’d really like to have a series of informal Centre ‘salons’ over the year open to all our PhD/Visiting Fellows/Staff who are affiliated with the Centre and/or have an interest in Chinese-English literary translation. The idea really is just to meet up and perhaps have a very vague rota with some sessions where we can take turns and have a chance to talk about what we are working on, and/or perhaps other sessions where someone can choose a relevant (short!) theoretical text which we could read in advance and then discuss.

disconcering 扰人的

Hope all is going well and (for those of you currently in Leeds) that the transformation in campus now that the new undergraduate students have arrived isn’t too disconcerting!! (everything will calm down a little soon J).

mitigate（缓解）

To help mitigate some of the inevitable isolation of doing research, and so that we can consolidate our own research hub, we plan to run a series of informal fortnightly afternoon 

另一大事记：

YZA小朋友要回国了，时间紧张，选择在大学校名礼品店买了礼品送给他，希望他们回国的旅程一路平安，机缘巧合的碰面让我们在这里共同度过了很多愉快的时光。

我们初次见面是刚来英国去Little London 询问学位时碰面的。小男孩当时十分热情，也许是因为看到中国人格外亲切。谁知这一碰面竟然为日后的友谊奠定了基础，虽然短短三个月，但每每想到他们一起奔跑玩耍的快乐，都令人十分开心。
