【國立臺灣大學109學年度畢業典禮 致詞代表 資訊工程學系韓哈斯】
Student Address, National Taiwan University Commencement 2021
International student Seth Austin Harding from Department of Computer Science and Information Engineering

校長、教授、以及在螢幕前的各位同學,大家好。非常感謝臺大給我這個機會。我是韓哈斯,來自美國華盛頓特區。我會以自身的真實經驗出發,來跟大家分享臺大帶給我的收穫。
我當初為什麼選擇來台灣求學呢?我小時候非常喜歡看武打片,然後我十歲的時候去看了一部電影叫做「功夫熊貓」。這部電影成為了我最喜歡的電影,主角「阿波」的故事跟我的故事很像。我看完了之後就決定要開始學功夫,所以去了「美國武術學院」。那個時候我每天都聽旁邊的人講中文,到了高中我就決定開始學中文。當時我遇到了一位貴人,她是從台北到美國來教書的中文老師,她教的課是我當時最喜歡的課,我每天去她的教室跟好朋友練習。到了高中畢業時,我是全高中中文最好的非母語人士。同時,我第二喜歡的課程是電腦科學,那時候我是程式能力數一數二的學生。後來在成功錄取夢寐以求的學校:臺灣大學之後,我感到雀躍不已,因為我既可以繼續學習中文,也可以持續在世界頂尖的學府中,往電腦科學的方向精進自我。
不過老實說,當我回顧大一的時期,我也曾迷失自我。雖然我修了很多很多的中文課,但是我那時只聽得懂大概一半的課程內容。跟大家對美國人的印象不同,我其實很害羞,也很害怕舉手提問,我甚至不太敢參與社交,所以當時朋友也很少。我開始想家,也變得有一點憂鬱。那時籃球是我唯一的紓壓方式。
但更不幸的是,我在打籃球時弄傷了我的前十字韌帶,做了兩次手術,需要一年半才能恢復。許多的負面情緒壓得我喘不過氣。我被困在人生的低谷,不知如何是好。我覺得我的中文不夠好,我也被診斷出失眠跟ADHD,另外,美國高中的數學太簡單了,來這邊不夠用。種種壓力讓我足不出戶,找不到自己的人生方向。後來,我向臺大心輔中心以及我的心理醫師尋求協助,然後我也開始跟系上有更多互動。有一位教授叫徐宏民跟我說,"Never give up",雖然那時候我覺得這句話太過於簡化了我的問題,不過,在我仔細思考了一個禮拜之後,我下定決心,發誓不讓自己被這些事擊敗。我決定要克盡全力,認真做好每件事。這是我人生的轉捩點,我開始變得異常自律。當時廖世偉教授和洪士灝系主任帶我進入它們的研究室鑽研學術。這重燃了我對資訊工程的熱忱,提醒了我當初會愛上這個領域的原因。我開始研究人工智慧以及區塊鏈,也開始跟其他系上同學交朋友,一起成立臺大人工智慧應用社NTUAI。NTUAI現在是校內頗具規模的技術研究社團,致力於推廣人工智慧給任何對該領域有熱忱的學生。歡迎加入NTUAI,可以掃描我們的QR CODE。
最近,由於疫情的緣故,我已經一年半沒回美國了。但是沒關係,因為我已經找到了我第二個家。我很愛臺大,以及台灣的人事物。雖然我經歷了人生的低潮,但這裡的一切總是給我滿滿的祝福與協助。最後,我想送給大家「功夫熊貓」裡的一句台詞: "You just need to believe"。只要用樂觀的態度去面對困難,就有能力改變自己,甚至改變身旁所愛的人。就像阿波的父親說的,"心誠則靈,只要你相信,點石就能成金。根本沒有什麼秘笈。只有你。"謝謝大家。

President, professors, and classmates, I'm very honored to be here. Thank you to NTU for giving me this opportunity. My name's Seth Austin Harding, and I'm from the D.C. metropolitan area. I'm going to tell a real story that's personal but that's relatable and what I see as the real me.
What motivated and guided me to take my undergraduate studies in Taiwan? When I was very young, I really loved watching kung fu movies, and when I was 10 years old, I went to the theater to watch "Kung Fu Panda". This became my favorite movie as I felt like the story of the main character Po was one to which I could very much relate. After watching this movie, I decided that I wanted to start learning kung fu, so I went to the United States Wushu Academy. At the time, I began hearing Mandarin on a daily basis, so when I was in high school, I decided to begin formally studying Chinese. It ended up being my Chinese teacher from Taipei who was my favorite teacher who taught my favorite class, so I decided I'd hang out in the Chinese classroom every day and practice lots. By the time graduation came around, I had attained the highest proficiency in Chinese among any non-native speaker in my school. My second favorite class was computer science, and I ended up attaining among the best coding skills in my school. After getting accepted to the school of my dreams -- National Taiwan University -- I felt honored, humbled, and excited; I could now spend time at among the world's finest universities studying Chinese and at the same time advancing my knowledge of computer science.
But when I look back at my freshman year, to be honest with you, I didn't know what I was doing. Despite having taken very many Chinese classes, when I went to the NTU lectures, I understood only about half of what the teachers were saying. Contrary to most people's impressions of an American, I was actually too shy to raise my hand, to ask questions, or to even meet with teachers after class, so I had very few friends at the time. I started to become homesick and depressed. At that time, I found that basketball was the only way I knew of relieving my stress. However, while playing basketball, I had torn my ACL and it would take two surgeries and a year and a half in time to fully recover. At this point, I felt caught between a rock and a hard place. In fact, this was the lowest point of my life, and I didn't know what to do. I felt like my Chinese wasn't good enough, I had been diagnosed with insomnia and ADHD, and I felt like the math taught in America was too simple to allow for me to keep up with my classmates. I was under immense pressure, and at this time, I lost any sense of purpose or direction. Later on, I went to seek help from NTU counseling, from my psychiatrist, and from my department. I reached out to Professor Winston Hsu from CSIE, and he told me this: "Never give up"; it was such an oversimplified way to approach such a complex series of problems, I had thought. However, I pondered these words intensely for one week, and by the end of that week, I had made a firm decision. This would NOT be another example of me giving up. I decided to go all out, to work diligently and passionately on all tasks at hand. This was the turning point of my life; I started to discipline myself to a very high degree. At this time, I met my then-to-become advisors Professor Shih-Wei Liao and Professor Shih-Hao Hung and entered their labs to begin research. Finally, the passion that I had for computer science that I had previously held in high school was kindled again, and I was finally reminded why I loved this field. I began my research life in blockchain and AI, and at the time I entered the lab, I also began creating NTUAI. NTUAI is now a large and highly successful NTU club that is dedicated to the research and public understanding of AI. Welcome one and all to join us; please scan our QR code here.
For a year and a half I haven't returned to America because of covid. But not to worry; I have found my second home, away from home. I love it here in NTU and I cherish all of the things I've had the privilege to experience in Taiwan. I've gone through the most difficult of struggles in my life here, but I've also had the most fortunate and blessed of experiences. To conclude, I'd like to quote a line from "Kung Fu Panda": "You just need to believe". As long as you are willing to adopt an optimistic attitude in facing challenges and hardships, you may become a positive force in changing the lives of those around you as well as your own life. It all depends on how you view it; just like what Po's father says, "there is no secret ingredient. It's just you." Thank you, everyone.

may the force be with you祝福 在 Facebook 的精選貼文
[非業配!」(最好星際大戰會找我業配啦😂)
May the Force be with you🤚🏼
願原力與你同在.
今天可能一直會看到這句話,也許你沒有看過星際大戰系列電影,可是絕對不能不知道這一世紀最經典的電影台詞「May the Force be with you. 願原力與你同在」這是星際大戰中最高等級的祝福,而每年的5月4日,因為發音相似雷同,全球廣大的星際大戰迷(簡稱:星戰迷)會慶祝這一天並且互相祝福對方:
May the fourth be with you 🤚🏼
其實我原本不是個星戰迷,也曾經試過主動成為星戰迷,可是我覺得裡面的角色好錯綜複雜,飛船飛來飛去很催眠,努力幾次過後的我,不得不認真的面對此生無法成為星戰迷的事實,誰知道老天派了一個小小孩來,帶領我進入星際大戰世界,他讓我知道那裏黑暗卻充滿愛與正義與不滅的希望,他告訴我角色之間的關係,他敘述裡面的經典橋段與台詞,我聽的如癡如醉立刻愛上!能夠跟著馬克成為星戰迷是我此生的榮幸~
有段時間,我跟馬克最愛的對話是:
「I Love You.」
「 I Know.」
照片是6歲的馬克與歐噴醬哥哥進棚拍攝留念。
喔,對了,這系列電影很特別,反派角色很受歡迎。
嗯,好想念歐噴醬,還有當年他裝扮的丘巴卡😆

嗨大家,我是吉他手林轉
過了好一段時間沒報告目前樂團的進度,因為疫情影響,我們取消了數場演出,也衝擊到我們的生活步調。
我與亮寫了一些半成品的新歌,也構想了許多未來作品上的格局跟方向,也因生活開銷維持費了不少心力跟體力及時間,盼大家在等我們一段時間,未來作品會非常有趣哦。
然而今天是5月4號,國際星際大戰日,基於我個人是個星戰迷,而我對音樂的一切也深受星戰在各層面影響和支持。
這邊祝福大家平安健康,原力永遠與大家同在哦。

may the force be with you祝福 在 玳瑚師父 Master Dai Hu Youtube 的最佳貼文
(English version below)
吾,玳瑚師父,最近看到很多人很喜歡在她他們的臉書照片上加工,比如說貓的耳朵、兔的耳朵、狗等等,但是吾告訴妳你,這些其實是不好的、不良的,千萬不要這樣做。
一、人的境界其實和精靈的世 界是重疊的。這樣可能會招來一些精靈的靈附在妳你身上,那妳你就會很痛苦。
二、妳你又知道妳你的五行是屬於什麼?妳你所要的用神是什麼?如果妳你放錯了狗、貓,等等等,反而妳你一生的命運,或者運程都會變得越來越坎坷不順利,妳你就會痛苦。
「師父,這些照片都很可愛而且很多人都在使用。那爲什麼您說這些照片會影響到我們的運程呢?」
因爲妳你的心。妳你動了妳你的心念,而人家看了,給於妳你一些意見或留言,妳你感官的一種刺激撬動了妳你的心靈,它就有一種靈動力,產生一種「加持力」,但不是好的加持力,會把我們的命運跟運程給搞壞。
所以這些完全是不明智的,千萬不要這樣做。
妳你們可以大家告訴大家,口耳相傳,讓大家都能夠免受這種無妄之災。
玳瑚師父希望妳你們不要去迷流行性的東西。記得要小心,以免把一生的幸福和快樂給毀在自己的手上。
祝福妳你們智慧增長。謝謝大家。

Recently, I have noticed many people who like to edit their photos on Facebook, adding cat ears, bunny ears and dog etc. But let me tell you, this is not a good thing. It's undesirable. Never ever do this.
Firstly, the human realm actually overlaps with the realm of elves & spirits. Such acts can possibly attract them to latch onto your body and that will bring much misery to you.
Secondly, do you know your personal element? What favourable elements do you need? If you add the wrong animal like a cat or dog etc, your entire destiny and personal luck will get rougher and go very badly. Then you will be in much pain.
"Master, these photos are very cute and many people are using them. So why do you say such photos can affect our destiny luck?"
Because of your mind. Your mind gives rise to a thought. When people see the photos and give you their opinion or comment, the stimulation of your senses will stir your mind, and a ripple of spiritual motion will arise, producing a force of "blessings", but it isn't positive blessings and will destroy our destiny and personal luck
So this is totally not sensible. Never ever do this.
Everybody please share with everybody. Through word of mouth, you can prevent others from suffering this undeserved catastrophe
Master Dai Hu hopes that you will not get addicted to fads, least your lifetime of bliss and happiness get ruined in your own hands
May you grow in wisdom. Thank you, everybody.
