Dream on!

Today, I met a phrase "Dream on!". I think it useful in real life talking. Haha, do you know its meaning. Give you an example, and you can work out. So you want a rise? Dream on! Yep, it is used to tell someone that they are hoping for something that will not happen. Really an awesome expression.

From this, I pay attention to the word "dream". It's actually a fantastic word. When mentioning this word, what can you think?

Everyone can shout out " I have a dream " Maybe sometimes just a day dream, but as someone said it's better than nightmare. Maybe some day daydream comes true. Who knows...

Cos dream your dream...then so what? Your feeling? In fact, most of people expect to meet a people who they can walk with hand in hand.

A dream house. hehe Everyone perhaps dreamed a dream house nearby a quiet and picturesque lake. Surrounded with grassland, wildflowers, white fence, running ivy ......so glamour...

Let's be a dream weaver...

Health comes first

Nowadays, health comes first. Everyone tries their best to keep fit. Healthy eating, doing sports regularly, developing good habits, etc. Of course, they are all necessary. However, being in a high mood can't be neglected. We always fall into an odd circle. On the one hand, we do some which are harmful for health. For example, drinking much, smoking constantly. It's difficult to kick. On the other hand, we still look for ways to be healty. In fact, almost everyone has health problem more or less. So-called sub-health. According to WHO, 80% humans are under sub health condition. Then do something for yourself.

Little Prince

On this rainy day, I didn't go out for the weekend. Just stayed at home and read a book---Little Prince. Yes, I collected before long. The problem is , I read it from the beginning up to now.

It's a French novel. Very famous, even sometimes work as a textbook. Before reading, I am first attracted by the illustration. A boy with blond hair, blue mantle, and a sword. So cool! Absolutely. This book is a fable about life. It gives us some enlightenment. Just some simple languages, but enough to urge us to ponder deeply.
I copy some brilliant words from the Chinese version into my Chinese blog. ( I always think Chinese is easier to show its beauty. lol Who know? After all French version is origin. But I believe the Chinese translation version express what it is properly. ) Wish you like it, too. And benefit from it.

Inspiration fading away?

Inspiration is really elusory, difficult to trace and abstract. I have no idea how to catch it. It can't be controlled by ourselves. Recently I found that I was short of brilliant ideas during the work. Seems most of time, just a blank sheet. So annoyed. Maybe due to living comfortable life, so that I seldom thought anything over. My life falls into a set routine. I make a narrow circle for myself. As a matter of fact, for a long time, I haven't read a book carefully. TERRIBLE....

Story behind SEASONS IN THE SUN

Several years ago, when I heard Seasons in the Sun for the first time, I fell in love with it. I was addicted into her rhythm, singer's beautiful voice. At that time I didn't think over its lyrics, or its meaning. Just a kinda pure charming. So many years going on, today I listen to it once more, knowing the story behind it, I have a complete different feeling. If you tasted it attentively, you would be touched deeply.

It is said that this song is from a French chanson, which was finished by the famous composer Jacques Brel in 1961. Three years later, it was written in English named as Seasons in the Sun. Until 1873, Canadian singer Terry Jacks sang and made a hit in Canada and America.

It is a will. The author say goodbye to his lover, friends, papa, daughter who have ever share joy and sadness with him.

It is really an old story. Three persons, we call them A、B、C for the moment. In the countryside in the 1950s, they were classmates of a high school. A and C were good friends from the Childhood. B was a beautiful girl. It's easy to guess what happened in this kinda story. A and C fell in love with B at the same time. A was that kind of sunny, active, handsome boy. He was a jock, beloved by many young girls. He lived a happy and simple life. And the other way around, C was coy, withdrawn, good at drawing. He had been in loved with B for a long time before A & B were together. But nobody knew. It was be hidden deeply into his heart. After graduation, A joined the army, and C became a carpenter. One day after war, A came back to marry B, and then he was a cargo driver ... Of course A often went out for living. B ran the grocery store left by her grandma, so much need to be done. Naturally, C loaded the responsability of taking care of the mother and daughter. After a long time, it was just like what we imagined. A knew nothing about it because of his character, in addition to his love to wife, trust in friend. Until one snowy day, A went home on the half way, all came out in the wash. The whole things came to obvious ... Facing the betray, A was out of control and killed them. Deep into night, A gave himself up to police. Two months later, he was sentenced to first-degree murder. The death penalty would be done in early spring the next year. On the 3rd day before death, A wrote 3 passages, one for his best friend C, one for his father, the last for his four-year-old daughter. At the last minute of his life, he still regarded C as his best, believable friend.

It's hard to die ..........

Does FATE work?

In China, there are many old sayings related to FATE. For instance, Fate brings together people who are far apart. A couple's conjugal fate is prearranged. There is no meeting without predestination. and so on. Sometimes people take sth. which is difficult to explain as FATE. To be frank, I don't believe in it at all in the early days. I think it has no any grounds. But somebody told me that NOT all the the things has its cause and effect. Maybe. Maybe it is really a random world.In my childhood, I have ever seen a TV play New Legend of the White Snake, staring Zhao Yazhi. In that film the theme song is related to FATE. It lefe me a great impression at that time. lol Maybe your FATE is around the corner. Take your time.

Suffering hot days

After many rainy days, we greet the sunny day. Since June, 21, it is so hot these three days in Guangzhou. Today it is about 36 centigrade (the highest). Meantime, I pay more attention to other places, esp. my hometown. It's about 31 centigrade and cloudy in Harbin. In Rizhao, Shandong, only 20 centigrade and gentle rain. To be frank, rainy days and hot days are not my favorites. I am so poor to come to GZ. lol As you know, it is rain season from April to June in Guangzhou. I have no idea whether it is called Meiyu Season, or monsoon season. Following, hot days will last 4-5 months. So painful...... It is such bad weather that I would not like to go out, just stay at home. Is there any good ways to prevent sunstroke?

Settle down here

Now, Beijing Time 17:40, June 21st, 2008, I settle down here to start my English blog. Before this, I have ever had an English blog. However, due to some reasons, it doesn't work. It indeed gave me a big beat. I am sad for it for several days. I would not like to stop, so with the help of my friends, I come here to start my new blogging life. Wish all is the best.

I will record my life, my track, my thoughts, my all that I can tell. I want to retrieve those I wrote before. Who knows? Maybe it works.
