Keiva used extortion to gain re-instatement. No poem
can make that acceptable. Keiva will never be welcome here.

> You were spanked with a lamp?You know, I thought the exact same thing, doc... I just couldn't bring myself to ask.  But evidently it's a common punishment - stales had the exact same thing happen to him.

When I was in Middle school I lived at campus, so I read book under covers almost every night without fearing being interfered by mom! So many interesting books then I read!
But my eyesight is very poor now:(
Now I am working with my Ph. D. dissertation which forced me to stay up every night. I am worrying about my eyes getting worse and worse.
btw: I am not a native speaker. Sorry for my poor language.

If you hadn't said I wouldn't have guessed it. Going back and rereading I can see it, but it's just small things. Your command of English is nothing to apologize for.

Welcome Tomghaji! It's such a nice suprise to hear from someone from Beijing - where I lived for many years!
worrying about my eyes getting worse and worse
Do you do/know of the eye excersises they teach in most Chinese schools? If you do, keep doing them, especially when it's late and you've been doing loads of work - it relaxes the eyes and reduces any damage caused by eye strain.

Try this site, these exercises are roughly what I was taught to do:

I'm afraid you'll have to copy'n'paste this as I can't get a link up.
