Blog又又又很久没有更新了，真的感到十分惭愧。申请季快进入尾声了，SOP也都写的差不多了，还是赶紧补一篇Statement of Ostrich来记录一下最近的”一点人生的经验“和“变化”吧，毕竟这半年对我而言确实可以说是天翻地覆。

春季丰富了不少人生的经历，也增添了些许不成熟的想法。虽然早就有诉诸笔端的冲动，只不过由于自身“鸵鸽”的本性一拖再拖，不知不觉中春假都已悄然结束。就连夏季学期都开始了一个星期，掐指一算距离我的上一篇文章过去将近过去了四个月，我才终于为了不让这个Blog像它的前辈们一样僵尸化，下定决心坐下来随便写点什么来填补这段漫长的空白。

There are many posts that illustrate how to create a Hexo-driven blog hosted on Github. However, when it comes to personal VPS, such step-to-step tutorial vanishes. Since I need to use shadowsocks to access the outside world beyond the wall, I happen to own a VPS provided by Bandwagon. So I do not need to(also not willing to) use Github to store the static webpages. As a result, this website is deployed on my personal VPS(Ubuntu 16.04). And here are some of the crucial procedures I have taken to build this website(my own nest):

年轻的时候还在搞OI，也算是看着Matrix67，Byvoid这样的大牛的个人博客一步步走过来的。羡慕着大牛们的人生轨迹的同时，也想着自己也要搭个博客，让自己这个鶸也能在世界上留下一点微小的痕迹。但网站搭好了，却每次都和我那拿完省一就“激流勇退”的OI生涯一样，“创业未半而中道崩殂”：搭好之后一共没写过几篇文章，却往往由于“众所周知的原因”更换了连接更加顺畅的VPS做梯子，最后又懒得做迁移，一切便烟消云散。一次又一次重启，仿佛之前的一切从未存在过。

So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.
