Pro bono publico (usually shortened to pro bono) is a phrase derived from Latin meaning "for the public good". The term is generally used to describe professional work undertaken voluntarily and without payment as a public service.


The scheme has a better chance of succeeding when a film's credits boast a name the Academy has already honored. Casting an actor with Oscar hardware is the surest way of a smaller film to establish pedigree - the stars bring their reputations with them. The mainstream movie biz depends on sequels; indies rely on stars doing pro bono work.

身體不好

真心希望這是最後一次打相關的網誌

假如下次再打這個標題代表我又病痛纏身

說實在話以前不覺得身體有多不好,但現在自己染病才發覺

先是去年得了登革熱,最近則是肛門廔管

不過肛門廔管就得開刀了(大泣)

人生中第一次的住院已經結束,但近手術房進行這種好像有點大的手術實在是全新體驗

一想到要呈現orz被人麻醉就覺得很ooxx,而且我發覺這些疾病自身也會覺得羞恥而不知該跟何人申訴

我有一個朋友聽到我染登革熱時竟然還笑了(我是有認真想要跟他絕交)

但最近看到肛門廔管心中真的是框啷了很多下

而且我已經在網路上瘋狂搜尋,連youtube都看了,不得不說現在醫藥器材很發達,我都覺得我看久了也可以執業(大誤)

總之真的希望2011我能好好康復,我會好好去做運動,希望病痛不要再纏身!
