Pinkpop 2009

Every year, the special pop music concert in Holland, I saw some parts of the concert on TV. Actually, I have no idea with the names of the bands，such as Bruce Springsteen, Krezip, the killers..., or maybe just in case heared some music but couldn't not remember the names. I am not so crazy with pop music, but by hearing those music, the feeling is different, feel falling in love with the music. So impressive!! Here it is just a special band, named KREZIP with three beauties, they started the band nine years ago when they were 17 or 18, a wonderful age, but gonna quit this year, the Pinkpop 2009 is the last show for them. I saw one of the woman's baby, perhaps she found the family is more important than her own career,even she can give up her favorite music, do not know if it is the current decision.I like her voice very much, and also touched by her song.

2000 , a starting band

2009, a finishing band

this is for every young girl,we have to learn, we have to try, we have to trust, we have to cry, we have to see. we have to know, we have to be strong, we have to make decision..........

I would stay(Lyrics)

If this is true,

I thought then, what will I think

Will I stay but rather I would get away

I'm scared that I won't find a thing

And afraid that I'll turn out to be alone, but I

I have to learn, have to try, have to trust I have to cry

Have to see, have to know that I can be myself

And if I could I would stay

And if they're not, not in my way

I'll stare here in the distance

But I'll grow up to be just like you, yeah

I'll grow up to be just like you, yeah

I see it all I'm sure but

Do I know what's right

Ithought I knew but it turns out the other way

I am scared that I won't find a thing

And afraid that I'll turn out to be alone, but I

I have to learn, have to try, have to trust I have to cry

I have to see, have to know that I can be myself

And if I could I would stay

And if they're not, not in my way I'll stare here in the distance

But I'll grow up to be just like you, yeah

I'll grow up to be just like you

I want to tell you

Why would I try to

You are all that I can see now

Why would I try to

And I want to tell you

Why would I try to

You are all I can see now

I know I'll try to

I have to learn, have to try, have to trust, have to cry

I have to see, have to know that I can be myself

But if I could, yeah, I would stay

And if they're not, not in my way

I'll stare here in the distance

But I'll grow up to be just like you, yeah

I'll grow up to be just like you, like you

Lucky week

Finally and totally done with being worried about searching my internship, got the signiture from the teacher. Starting the internship will be much earlier than the official time, but I don't care, just need to arrange everything and keep a brave heart. I am going back to take three jobs and also go to school every week, this time the mission is much heavier. People may think I am crazy, but I do not care. One is what I like to do( Teacher for hobby), one is what I must do( server for money), the other one is what I want to do( Internship for getting work experience).
Getting less free time makes me think less the other things.

I was suprised that the headmaster from Chinese School said she would raise my salary next new semester starts. I was so happy not for money, but I got her compliment. She is a very strict woman, hardly can praise someone. And I also get along with my students( shouldn't call them in this way, because they are either in the same age as mine, or even much older than me), we went to have lunch together, they even told me they like me. The feeling is very special and so good.

I will take a good care of myself since now on, and try my best to compromise everything. Every day is the lucky day, just need to have faith for yourself.

Language study

Since I have been here, I started learning Dutch. Actually, it is a school course, so have to lean it in order to get enough credits.

Today, saw a part of a video, which is about the vietnames girl( who I mentioned in the previous blog, went back to Vietanam). She learnt very hard for her part-time job, selling the spring rolls. I felt shamed.......

Within the time I am staying, my Dutch should be good, but......... so can not even say that in the between, learnt not even 20 German words( Because of friend to start, but giving up after three or four days). Last friday, i had the Dutch listening exam, that was terrible. I can only understand the gernal topics, but for answering questions, still unknow. So I stole some anwers from a Moroco boy who was siting in front of me.

I always said that I did not have time for studing a new language. And maybe I have no talent for the language.But those were very non-creative excuses, simply I am lazy to learn. No any motivations at all!!

What should I do? Continue like this?Hopefully I will not regret in the future that I have not learnt well. Now I have no any clue for this. Maybe I will just put a little bit effort in it without totally ignoring......

Friends

I was invited by a friend to her birthday celebration. It took place at Club Xi, a Chinese-Duth KTV club. I did not even go to KTV very often, which is now very popular in China, and also one of the most entertainment activities.

I was singing quiet a lot tonight, even till my throat was going be raucous. Our six girls, who were called chinese party anamials by someone, were together and also singing together. All are the familared songs and music with nice lyrics.We started rememorizing our past, experience and expressing our emotions by the songs. When we had some songs about the friendship, we congratulated ourselves that we still have each other. Perhaps during the every relationship, we have to leave friends alone a bit. It was understandable and also comptely accepted by friends. They were suffering the loness and being left. But once something happens, friends are always the first one appear to you and stay with you.

We had fight; We had querral; We had been pouring the cold water on their head when they were taling some opinions; We had great times, laughing and hanging out together. One is like summer, the other one is likes autum, but we can always turn the winter into spring.Perhaps if we say relationship is the current, but the friendship is forever.

Falling in love is a great feeling, but sometimes it is hurting.But I am happy I still have friends support and are with me. That is alreay very enough and also make me satisfied. Both real "ships" are hard to have. Open our eyes first!! Once we own them, must cherish them.

The sunlight

I feel so warm and peaceful in my heart. I have been over excited these few two days. Because suddenly I have noticed that what I want for my future and also noticed my direction.

I have had a dream, being a teacher in the countryside, poor and underdeveloped area of China. I like it and I think education is very important to the future of a country; I have had a dream, I wanted to help more poor people to get over all the miserable life, at least make them do not need to be in the unsecured situation and worried about what they are going to eat next meal; I have had a dream, travelling around the entire world and see all different things.

Since I am abroad, I had a big influence with people surrounding me, all the different opinions and attitudes. Or maybe I am a open-minded person, and also willing to. I really like the words from William Shakespeare:” Reality can destroy the dream, why shouldn’t the dream destroy reality?” We need to accept the reality, because we are living in this crazy world. Gradually, the dream from our young age would disappear very easily(In this opinion, I need to make comment that I am from China, the system and the society will make harder to do something we wish and we want). But why don't we accept the reality and try to get our dreams closer?

“Maybe you can work for some organisations with projects to help poor people, earning the money in the same time but also help the poor”. I was awake. And feel so warm in the sunlight! I can make the connection between my studies and also my dreams. Helping is not always giving away the money, but also need to make the people aware; there are still some poor people in the world. Why shouldn't the luxury people make a little contribution but without continuing to waste money? Why shouldn’t the poor people get some chances to work and support themselves?

I want to have money, everyone needs it, but I am not that person to be satisfied with the luxury life. I always have the motivations that I need to study hard, the reasons are for my parents, for myself, they feed me, so I must give them back (perhaps they do not need my money at all, but I want them live in a better life and make it worth that they send me here), in the meantime, I need to feed myself and have a happier life.

Thinking is always much easier than doing it. Some people will say, you think you have enough power to make your dream come into truth? Dare to dream!! If everyone thinks that it can never come into truth, so how it will be? Why shouldn't I think about it and try to work it out in that direction? If more people are aware with the facts, I believe the world will be nicer. Dreams become the goal of my future........

One little drop will be dried quickly, but what about the whole ocean?

How I will be when I am 80

Today, I was working the whole day and evening in the restaurant, 10.5 hours.Later evening, I saw a old woman walking slowly into the restaurant with the crutch. She was walking hunchly and took more time by sitting down. I guess she is seventies or even eighty.

Every week, she comes to eat, simply only one tomatosoup and one spring roll. She sits in the restaurant always by two or even three hours. Her husband was dead four years ago, so now she is alone. I did not know if she has any children. I am just thinking if she has but where are they. Every time I saw her, she was always by her own. My boss said she was always walking outside if the weather was nice. She wants to talk to people or just want to see some people. I think in the western country, there are more old people like she is now. I feel sorry for them. Living alone, maybe they like it, but some how still feel a bit lonely, or simply just respect their children's lives, do not want to disturb. They did not expect their children come to live with them, but at least, it is better that children can come to take look at them, or just have a dinner together.

In this case, I like the way in gernal now what our parents are doing to our grandparents. First, i think it is hardly to find that parents are still living with grand parents. But always during the weekend, parents will bring the kids to grandparents. So three generations are staying together, talking, playing Majang, watching some TV programm. Kids are running around in the house. What a busy view! But what a cozy family!

I do not think anyone will like it when they are sitting alone in the house. It is always nice to spend the weekend with friends, families. Our parents are feeding us till we have grown up , and one day, when they are old but feeling lonely. Parents will never expect anything from us, just being healthy and happy. For sure, they miss us and also want to see us more often. I think that is nature. As their children, nomatter how old we are, we are still the children in their eyes. Sometimes, there are some reasons, such as living far away or we have no time, but at least need to try best.

So Why shouldn't we go to see them more often? just imangine, how we will feel when we are getting old, especially when we lost our lover?What do we still expect?

Alcohol

My roommate asked some friends to come to have barbecue. That was a very beautiful day! I joined them half, because must work in the restaurant in the evening. I was in charge of taking photoes and making videos. Unfortunately, I only made contribution for not even two hours,I like to do it, haha....But later when i came back , I joined the party!

Yang was drinking some pink wine, I thought it was Rose, but suprisely, it was Rum with mild ice, 80% alcohol. It must be sharp tast. I did not know since when, I have been interest in the alcohol, maybe just because this one is special, i never had it before and not even heared about the Rum has such hight alcohol. So with last months alcohol trainning experience, I tried some, I took twice, in total, it was 60ml pure Rum with some ice(Nomally, people drink it mixed with other soft drink. To be honest, I did not like the tast at all, after I could not feel anything accept feeling warm. It is going to be really good to take the Rum to Northpole and will not shake body all the time when stay outside.

Some times, I found alcohol is a good thing. When it works, people feel relax. That is the reason when people are together, achohol plays an important role in it. But when we are sad or depressed, taking alcohol is not a good idea, I tried, trust me. it makes it even worse. And always, make people drink too much and got headache.

Take it easy!

only one day of the week at school

I did not write for a few days and also missed my regular programm(to gym), was ill but also lazy. Slept quiet long but it seems still not enough.

Today it was Wednesday, only for few hours to school. The first day of the week, I went to school, missed some classes of the first two days, and tomorrow it starts the holidays again and stay over the weekend. It seemed I was trying to give myself the holiday this week. Some people from the group asked me how i was doing, cause I also missed the group meetings..I felt so nice to see some school friends again, having classes,eventhough it was not so interesting, talking with some friends, having some coffee, even today I also had a project meeting. It was not bad as what I thought, every boday was happy, no more arguements and questions this time, very peaceful and friendly environment.

In break time of school, I heared a story from a friend, about a guy from the same spanish class. The guy comes from Sudan, or just that area, he lost his 6 families members in one month, including his parents.Wooo.....I had no any words to say, felt so sorry for him and got chicken skin. He had left the country for about 10 years, and he was the child soldier. She told that she read some stories about the child soldier, very miserable life of them. What a miserable life of him!! had a bad childhood, now lost family, and suffering the pains(I lost a close friend of mine before, so I could understand the feeling, his situation was even worse than mine),but luckly he got a brother in Holland.

I hate the war, I hate the people just come to your country take everything away, I hate the people kill any people, women, children, the old. Why shouldn't every country live in a peaceful world? Having toooooo.. much desire will never make satification. Why people have sooo... much desire? It is good, but always not too much.

Hopefully, everyone appreciate the lives, only can live once.Hopefully, the guy will go better year by year;Hopefully, we are going to have a peace in the everywhere of the world.

Today was a good day, nice weather, less winds, had school, had coffee and dinner with friends , came home late, but enjoyed the day!! Life just needs to be enjoyed simplely.......

Next day is coming, we go to fight for our future to welcome our new day!

Life goes on

Yesterday, a vietnamese girl with her family,her husband, mother in law and her six-month baby came to say goodbye to Hennie. I have never met her before, only saw her photos, videos of her, and heared her name million times. For me, I did not see any special on her face, just a face alway with smile with two dimples. I said she would be a very great teacher in the kindergarden.

Her first photo here I saw, just looks like the every student first time here. The face was full of curious, sunshine and naiveness. Today I saw her, she was completely different. She has grown up. She was studing in the same school as what am, while the beginning of her year three, she was taking placement in Vietnam. Supprisely, she got married during that time. This year she had graduated and got the diploma.

Time is flying, a little girl has already become a Mama. I was holding the baby for a few minutes with my 100% power, was nervous, afraid of breaking and let him fall down. She likes Holland very much, but the reality will hardly happen as people like. There are also the possibilities that she can come to visit one day, or the grown baby come to Holland. Everything is hardly to be forecasted, only time proves everything what has happened. It was a plein story of a girl, but i realize that always the plein story is closer to people's life. Coming, growing and leaving.......

Life goes on, and it must be.

"Safe trip to vietame, happiest life in vietame, and welcome to Holland again"

Big pie is falling toward me from the sky

Why? Just let me explain.

I was working the full day today in the resturant. And got some Chinese people were eating in the resturant. People may think that is normal, just Chinese go to eat in the Chinese resturant. The point is that rarely can have Chinese customers, and the most are Dutch. It was a kind of big dinner for them, who are working in the branches of Bank of China in Rotterdam, all the "big heads" from the Bank of China.

I should not critics Chinese as I am also a Chinese. But I want to say something becase those people are really disappointed. I think they are well educated people from China, and taking business abroad. They were showing somehow they are so great, and we are just the lower level workers in the resturant. They looked down to us, rude and spoke loudly( Even they were staying in a seperate side of the restaurant, and Some Dutch people in the other side were even thinking if there was a fight. They got drunk tonight in the restaurant, and the attitude was even worse.

I went to serve, " Hey, you are speaking very good Chinese"" I am from China, and I am studying here, this is just my part-time job""Oh...really? Do you know any internship students?""Nice! I am looking for a placement right moment"........So the next, people could imagine what it is about......... Anyway, from my side, I must lean some new which i did not know from the school.And If I am really interest in it, I need to take the exam before, they will see if I am accepted.

Actually, it was really at the right time. There is a posibility, I mean just from unknowing something to knowing something, it has been a very good Chance to me. But I am really disappointed by the behavior of those people. Perhaps I am going to stay in that environment for half a year.

On the other hand, it is really a great chance. As I said before, I like a piece of white paper, no any working experience and no extra language skills, even now the internship which perhaps I am going to take, I have no many knowledge. So I must be happy there is a big pie coming to me. Gaining experiece is more important. The question now is not to chose as what you are interested in, but what you can lean. Then I will know if I like it. I always believe learning anything is better than nothing. Anyway, I need to face the real society one day, why shouldn't i start now.

" The chance is always given to the people who have been ready to wait there". I decide to try my best for catching up this big pie. Hopefully, it is also going to the right direction.

Have a moan

I was not in a good mood today, eventhough the weather was good, shinning sun and bright moon.

What did I do today? The most of the day time I think i spent on studying, writing an report and searching for the internship.But both of them were not done. Finally, I got the permission from Mum, I can look for the placement in the other countries. She was conviencing me to take placement in China if looking for it was so hard, I said that was just only backup. A bit worried about my placement. Sometimes, I am jealousy on some friends. They already got quiet a lot working experience, and are able to speak more than three languages. I am just like a piece of white paper, nothing. I could not blam anyone. The consquence of growing up in the Chinese education, I would never get so many experience and learn different language in the early age. Well just believe in something, think positively, and work harder.

I was still thinking of him. I thought everything had already been over. And also, I have put myself out of the story, and tell myself I must start new. Actually, I think I have been doing well, make myself busy, go movies, go to gym, go to visite friends. But doing is always more diffcult than thinking. If I rememorize something, I just try to think about some negative words of him,it seemed not work well. Ok, just let it then.

A friend said "Love is the only disease that makes you either feel better or feel worse, but only the time is the best medicine". People's heart is the ocean, even never can be understood by itselves.

I am moaning about things just in my blog, the readers will laught at me or feel bored. But just want to share.

Marriage

It sounds like a bit serious topic. I just heared the story from a friend, her sister is going to divorce soon. I was a bit shocked but on the other hand was thinking if I am too traditional. Anyway I will first just simplely explain the story of her.

From the other people's sights, she has been living in a perfect life since four years ago.She got a really good husband, which is almost the "slave" of her. And even for her, she thought she was loving him. Just till several weeks ago, she met a new guy, and thought the guy was her big love.Later something happened and she realized the guy was an asshole. The problem is that she has cheated to her husband, and she found out she does not love her husband anymore. So it is obviouse they would better break up.

I am just thinking "what does the marriage mean to everyone" and "How do people look at it". Is it just a simple word instead of the relationship between man and woman? The western people are more open to it, or in the other word, perhaps they think getting divorced is easier to accept. If they do not love each other, why should they stay together.May just becasue of this reason, people easily think let's get marriade or let's get divorced. But it is not easy to make the brain fresh to think about if you really do not love her or him any more, or just other elements, such as current arguements, troubles or unsatisfaction. When people are not sure, I think it is better to re-think the situation but saying words or doing something so easily. In this situation, I agree some traditional thinking. Some gramma's age, they always look back, and is satisfied with their life alreay, the marriage is something they do not want to destory. The relationship may has alreay changed, it could become friendship, familyship or still love. Well, it also depends on different people, the attitude to the life. Just need to be save for self and also for partner, taking the serious consideriation.

And on the other hand, Sexual reason is also a big issue between the relationship, and I agree on it. I remembered that I asked a question to a very experienced man " Do you believe in the first sight love?" His answer is " No". He explained that it was just because of the physical reason, perhaps both of them just want to have sex. The answer is simple, but so far, I had no clue for it. I used to believe the first sight love, and maybe also experienced. And It is always hard to realize what actually it is. Now i also believe it, perhaps one day, i will have the same idea as he said. As I mentioned in the previous blog, the " players".... The sexual life is very important to everyone, and help people feel to have a better life. Anything can be the reason to stop the marriage, just everytime, people want to try new, feel different and always unsatisfied. They think they will have better life. Humans are powerful but just we can not indicate the things will happen in the future.

I am afraid that if the whole world is going to become that people only have sex around, even change everyday. What a sad world will be? What the poor life the humans will have? It will no any relationship and marriage exist. I don't like it at all. But just sometimes, all the problems we can not get rid of them.

Still the same sentence from the previous blog:" We are the stories, the stories are us"

"Drugs"

Don't think about the reall drugs , I am just using a matephor here to decribe my feeling.haha...No misunderstandings!!

Let's first play the music and relax a bit.......(Still from one of my favorite-the Corrs- Toss the Feather)

.......

Actually, the "drugs" here I mean just the regularily going to the gym every evening. I did not really recognise if it is like my real sense, but at this moment, I feel like I must go, and also feel unconfortable if i am not going to the gym.(Maybe more psychological idea). The simple reason for that just becasue I want to get very good sleep during the night, so I go after nine in the evening. I was dreaming quiet a lot during the night, about everything, friends, family and some stories, maybe just thinking too much during the day or getting some pressure from the school. I could not explain the reasons, just a lot of things come to my head. ( Well, there was the thing happened, I need to get it over. Dreaming maybe is a process of forgetting or being awareness, Just let me say in that way)

I was trying to find some ways to solve my problem. I drank a lot before, like half bottle of white wine before sleep, it did not help that lot. And also called up my friend before sleep, and talked a bit, but still....Later on, I realized that I should do something really good for myself without bothering people, nomatter for physical or psychological conditions. So I found out to do some sports. Friends say(Just follow them) I need to lose some weight, but I am not such acperson can make it by being on diet. If it happens on me, I rather being killed. But Sports is healthier and the most important is that can help me with sleep and even I felt I can go to bed ealier then wake up ealier, less sleeping hours but more awake and fresher during the day.

Wow!! Sooo.... great!! Friends, let's do it.

Everyday is Mother's Day

To Mama

Alreay did not remember when was the last time:

I was crying in your arms,

I was laughing in your hug,
You were washing my hair,
You were sewing my clothes,

.........

Still Remember:

I was begging for the Babi Toy to you,

I was Sleeping on your shoulders,

You were cooking in the early morning,

You were screaming to me to tidy up my room,

...........

Until the lines are going to your face, going to your hands;

Still now you are worried about your daughter very much,

Caring about your daughter very much,

Missing your daughter very much,

I am always the little girl can never grown up.

Mama, can you please take a break?

Can you please go for your own holiday?

Can you please do things you want but not for me?

Can you please.........

Mama, I love you!

I love you, Mama!

Something nice

How much weight can people lose?

"Losing weight is a never dead topic for women."

During the break of the Dutch lesson, some girls from class were talking about who is slim and who is fat, so the topic will never far away from losing weight and keep fit. One girl was saying," I am now 60 kilos(168cm), my aim is to be with 45 kilos.""Are you crazy?? That will be too skinny.Some singers were really great before, but after lost 10 kilos, they were becoming under popular....Don;t do that, maybe just make it till 50....." I have heared quiet a lot of girls around me all want to lose weight, look slimmer, then being attractive. Females are always like this, also include me, more care about how selves look like, the face, the body, the clothes.....

Well, to be honest, I have been to gym almost every day for one month.But the purpose going there is to make me sleep well, that is why, i always go a bit late in the evening, 40 mins till it is close. It really works well and on the other hand, the fitness can also be achieved. I just want to point out that keeping fitness is not bad or unnecessary,sports are always good . Just people shouldn't have extreamly idea that want to become skinny skinny, then the sports won't help too much of that.

We should always care about the body condition first and health, keeping losing weight with sports and without food all the time is a bit stupid idea just want to be goodlooking, and it will change your body resistence if lose too much under the standard.

Keep a positive and right attitude on it!

"She is back"

Got a phone call from a friend......

"Hi, I do not feel well. My ex-girlfriend comes back to me, she wants to be together again. I did not say yes neither no. She did not really treat good to me, and was kind of anoying me all the time.I did not like her that much. She said break, just because of her ex-boyfriend came back to her. I already had the feeling that she was playing around, and just wanted to have fun ......"


I am thinking why there are so many people are playing around with girls or boys, especially in the age of twenties? That is fair if both persons are playing, so it doesn't really matter how they feel the relationship.However if there is only one player, the other one gets hurt, of course.The players may think, "ooh...i have a lot of girls/boys arounding me, feel so good!! Or I just want to have sex and do not need to take any responsibilities....."

Can I think the plays do not have responsibilities or they do not want to be responsible for the other one? Maybe even selfish? Don't they feel sick of playing or feel bored of that? Find the MR/MRS Right is not easy, first have to have the relationship, and then being together to see how it is going, if it is good, then continue, if it is bad, then break up. People never know when the relationship will be ended, but always feel sad,or sometimes just depressed while break up. Later people recognise, "oh...she/he is not so important to me though, she/he is more attractive, maybe i can start with her/him...."

People are always changing, so the stories with people are changing too. We are the stories, the stories are us, enjoying the great time with her/him, being truth into the life.


"She is back, but stay away from her, otherwise you get hurt again if you don;t like her anymore!!!"

"She is back, give her and also yourself one chance if you still like each other very much!!!"

Happy Hour

Remember the every moment with friends......I love them.....

Missing

I felt a bit shocked by the email. It is a bit exaggeratedAre parents worried about us too much? Even we call them every week, some people do every 2 days, parents still want to know everything of us. We can not get out of the " control". I am thinking my parents are quiet different than " the other" parents. I can hardly have the feeling with being controled. My Mum always ask the questions about the food, the coldness or warmness and momeny, but Dad always ask my thoughts and a bit what i learnt at school......they are very sensitive, some i did not want to tell, they wouldn;t ask. The feeling being with my parents is more like we are friends, especially with Dad.

I still remembered that a few months ago, i was so afraid of talking to them a few weeks, did not dare to tell them the stories.Later I told themthe stories, Mum and Dad like something was never happened. And still ask something about my studies, my friends, my lige. (I was even so afraid to make the dissappointed, but I realized that they were not. )

"Parents are the one who know you most well." Now I start to believe that....

........

Face issues

Well, by hearing the title, people may start thinking some things, dirts? Pimples? Rimple? Taches? Or even thinking am i only have one eye?haha......

However, I am not going to talk about the physical problems, but the psychological problem:"losing face" . Perhaps it is a bit confused phase, actually it happens in an embrassing situation and how people feel like "losing face". Mostly, Eastern people are more afraid of losing face than the western people, becasue of culture difference or personalities.

I still remembered last Friday morning, i was waiting out side the class room for the teacher's coming. Another teacher was passing by, asking
" are you going to have a presentation?"
"Yes."
" You are dressing up like a waitress in the Chinese resturant, it doesn't suppose like this."

I was thinking," Am i wearing the wrong suit?""I don't think so , just normal suit without the suittop, that's it"

I was just smiling to him and looking back of him. I did not react on anywords but i felt my face was burning. Here i have say, my brain might stoped for a few seconds. After that, i think i should say "Thank you", nomater it means being angry or real thankness. At that moment, burning face told me i was nervous , was laughed at by the teacher, was embrassed by wearing the wrong clothes. If i was really wrong, i did not expect a stranger came to tell me in very mean way, would feel much better if a close come to tell me that.

For western people, in this situation, it will not hurt but they may think the teacher was impolite. That's it.


Sometimes, people just feel embrassed in some unexpected words and thoughs. Or when people really want to do something but are afraid,becasue they have already seen that the people arounding them are showing negative ideas, which becomes stones on the ways. In fact, people are starting thinking not to do the things they really want, in some case, they are afraid of losing face. Of course, not all the things people really want to do are right, just need to judge them.(It sounds easy, but hard to know. There is no short path to avoid the mistakes). Everything has the first time, and something need to be started. Losing face can be a little problem but also can be a big problem.

A man and a woman

" To be happy with a man, you must understand him a lot and love him a little; To be happy with a woman you must love her a lot and ..................."

I saw this setence appearing a friend's profile on MSN. He said because of the restriciton of words, he did not finish the complete setence. Actually, the format should be the same.

" To be happy with a man, you must understand him a lot and love him a little; To be happy with a woman you must love her a lot and understand her a little"

Well, in this case, It sounds like two people is putting different efforts in the relationship, Loving and understanding. Is that "undertand" more difficult than " love", or I use the other word: painstaking. People can fall in love with someone within one second, but if people want to understand someone, maybe need to use the whole life.Loving makes more understanding. In some situation, the reality can detory it. But i believe that only stonger people can stay like that in the longer time( forever) with the happiness.

Loving and understanding are not countable, it is only known by the woman and the man. Happiness is only esist in the loving and understnading.

Parents

After dinner, we were a bit lazy to move the empty dishes to the kichen. My roommate and I started talking some "Bagua". She was talking about a boy in her childhood. He was a spoiled boy in the familay, her parents cooked every good meal everyday. The most exaggerated story was that his mother checked the toliet every day after he shited. She wanted to check if he was healthy enough. So never think about he was even allowed to do laundary or the other simple work in the family.

It sounds a bit stupid and aslo unbelievable. But it really happened. When the boy was 20, he totaly moved out and was rebelleded to parents....... He would never suffer such things in his life again.

I can not help thinking that when parents did not care their children at all or have less care, how the children will think about their parents.I can always hear some complains that people say " My Mum is annoying" or say" My father is old fashion, did not understand anything " or say " I am disappointed because my parents will not buy me that new edition laptop""........"".........".

I can clearly remember what i was thinking of my parents: "if i have a child, i will never give the same education as i had before. My parents' education failed"( Actually, i like to have children, just hope i will be more successful than my parents )

By hearing those stories, i think it is hard to being parents. Children are always unsatisfied something, and complaining parents.Sometimes, right is wrong, and wrong is still wrong. I said to my roommate" it is better do not have childern, then everything is going to be easier(joking)"" If you do not want to have children, your whole life is not complete"

"hahahaha...." laughing together.

The impressed woman

Perface

Hennie just showed my an interesting story from someone's blog, article is "why do young chinese wanna date old western guy",first sentence appear:"Why not date a Chinese guy? They even tie your shoe laces for you? Try getting a western guy to do this and he'll be long gone."



Started to read the paragraphs, just because recently had watched a piece of TV, recording the Chinese dating(blind date). But this story is a bit different. The reflaction on Chinese women's opinion is similar, money becomes more important if they will marry men.( Well, here it is a little interlude).

(come back again)

Looking through her blogs, all the articles or stories, i just fell in interested in her words and opinions. How a western woman look at Chinese?( Maybe i will never interested in it if i still stay in China) I think now it is enough that why i am impressed by her. Or maybe, in my subconscious, the other reason is that i wanna start reading something interesting in English, just did not find the right " book" before. It sounds a bit strange reason, but anyway, that's fine, just becasue i like it..

Digression

I do not know why i started writing down my feelings and thoughts. Actually, i used to write something, but it was just like once by ages. Something happened in recent months, i have been thinking a lot. Some of them i did( do) not understand, so there are still question marks in my head, some of them got the answers, or even some of them i choose not to figure out, just put aside. Suddenly i realised that i am a very lucky girl. Always some people have big influence on me, i am growing by expericing different people, and even sometimes, they give me a lot of sunlights and open my minds.

I am falling in love writing down something, hope it is not just for today(Lazy girl, hahaha, i am laughing at myself), sharing opinions and expericing the life, and maybe a stupid idea is to practise writing skill.hahaha.....

Unhappy wedding

I Just saw a small piece of the wedding in the neighbor, the Bridegroom came to pick up the bride to the wedding ceremony.

They never meet each other. The girl was just around sixteen or seventh. And the marriage was arranged by her father, becasue that is the Arabic culture. That was a story behind it, the boy might have paid the father, in order to get the Dutch passport.

What a sad world! Who will be satisfied with the marriage? Father? That is for sure. If by lucky, the girl will fall in love with the man, then they will have a very happy life later; If not, what will happen? Who knows.

I am thinking we are so fortunate to live in this word, We can still do what we like, choose whom we love. Even if we get hurts, but still we are able to get it over, or even say we will get chance to get it over. We may suffer some growing pains and also enjoy growing happiness. However, she can never change anything in her life. She has to live under the powerful culture.

Culture can be changed, but that is not easy, maybe after hundreds or even thousand years. At least, i can not count.

Just wish she will have a better new life.

Strange Humans

A really big world!! So many different people appear in your life, good, bad or even the " intermediater", no one can say, no one can see, only you know by yourself. Sometimes, evern by self will never understand. Humans are strange, always can have to so much emotions,envy, proudness, jealousy, anger, happness, sadness,missing, desire, confusing, and even lost. Someone said" Humans are the animals who must live together!!" is that right???? yes, it is. Yong people always think they are doing the right thing, they are the best in the world. I will not comment on anything, because that is life, that is symbole of the youg people. Do anything we/you like. Eventhough get hurts, it must get though in people's life, "growing pains", nomatter which way you are going, it is unavoided.

Sometimes, i am thinking, am i stupid? He said, that is not stupid, just i am naive. First time to get known the word in English. Or maybe i am too naive to become stupid. Who knows, even not me!People are fighting everyday, someone is living for enjoying the life, someone is living for living;

If you alreay have known it is useless, better to keep your own way to walk, at least keep something for yourself. "Slience is a piece of gold."

I like the words from a movie" Yesterday is a history, tomorrow is a mystery, that is why today is the present" Forget the history(maybe sometimes it is hard,but enjoying today, welcoming tomorrow. Is it a good thinking? i think so

Humans, be wake up, be strong, be ambitious, be optimistic. The most thing is don;t worry, be happy!!
