+I'd like to include my GitHub repositories here.  To do so, it's a
+piece of cake to slightly modify `_config.yml`.[^config_octopress]
+
+Once, I curiously typed `git status` in `~/octopress`.  The following
+screenshot is from my terminal.
+
+{% img /images/git_status.png 'git status' 'git status' %}
+
+Then I blindly followed the "advice" of `git status` and typed
+
+```
+$ git add .
+```
+
+It seemed that I had made a mistake.  Actually, **without adding those
+modified and untracked files on the stage for commit**, the following
+two commands will do.
+
+```
+$ rake generate
+$ rake deploy
+```
+
+The final step is to view your blog again after going out for a cup
+water or some snacks.
+
+How about the `git status`?  Simply *forget about it*!

+I've found [a useful page](http://wiki.hotoo.me/Vim.html) introducing
+a Vim lover.  It consists of plenty of links to many useful resources.
+Unfortunately, for Vim users who *can't* understand Chinese, I'm not
+sure if they can understand the contents of the page.  I hope Google
+Translation can help.  Otherwise, they can also find some hyperlinks
+which take them to other English websites.

+I haven't learn something about Octopress for 2 weeks. I hope that I
+can create a GitHub project page using Octopress successfully.
+
+I have seen a comment for a blog post which briefly describes the
+procedures for making `gh-pages`. The user who has left the comment
+claims that the posts, which should be under the `source/_posts`
+directory[^doc], is in the `source` branch of Octopress Git
+repository. I'm going to figure it out. No matter it's true or not,
+it's something that puzzles some Octopress users.
+
+Creating an ABOUT page
+----
+
+I couldn't find the answer for adding new items to the navigation bar
+at the top of the posts and under the header in an Octopress blog
+because I didn't know the Google search words. This afternoon, I found
+that googling "octopress page navigation" help. I managed to find a
+blog post on that.[^octopress_about]

+## Brief Introduction
+
+To be concise, I use point form.
+
+1. **Not** an IT student or staff.
+2. A free software supporter.
+3. A GNU/Linux user.
+4. Love text editing in Vim.
+5. Enjoy writing in Markdown.
+
+## My Videos
+
+I have made only two, and they're on Youtube.
+
+1. [Efficient LaTeX Editing with Vim](http://youtu.be/y67t-05nFD0)
+2. [Easy Citing in APA Style with Vim-LaTeX](http://youtu.be/ly8BlePO4ws)
+
+## My Project Pages
+
+Using Octopress to create **both** a blog and a GitHub project page
+under the **same** host (http://username.github.io) is **too
+difficult** since they share the **same** `source` folder.
+
+Therefore, as *not* being an IT student[^not_it_student], I will get
+pretty project page template set up with several clicks on GitHub's
+online platform.  For details, you may refer to
+[*Instantly Beautiful Project Pages*](https://github.com/blog/1081-instantly-beautiful-project-pages)
+written by Boxer.

+1. [Hello-World](http://vincenttam.github.io/Hello-World/): A testing
+repository.
+2. [pandoc_slides](http://vincenttam.github.io/pandoc_slides/): A
+repository for some of my slides.
+3. [i_dont_use_word](http://vincenttam.github.io/i_dont_use_word/):
+Another repository for hosting a slide created easily **without** M$
+Office.
