I'm lovin it!!

I consider that McDonald is my truly friend.When I feel anxiety or have pressure,I can always find pleasure in McDonald.After a great meal,all the bad feelings disappear and I become alive again!
Last Sunday,because of so many trifles and coming exams which make me so busy,I felt great anxiety.With my request,my friend and I went to McDonald for lunch.Once walking into the restaurant,the familiar smell and atmosphere instantly make me feeling better.
With impulse just as the picture shown,we only two ordered two hamburgers,with fried fries and drinks.Along with twenty pieces of chicken,two ice cream and one corn soup!
Not only us but the clerk felt astonished about our order for that it seemed to for about four to five portions!

Feeling excited with a little bit embarassed,we spent almost one hour to finish this big meal!
So happy!
I think everyone has his or her favorite thing to sooth the tension.No matter is a person or food,we all hope to conquer the bad things and have happier life!
McDonald,I'm lovin it!
Wish everybody has a good performance on exams and a wonderful summer vacation!

Susan Boyle collapsed!

LONDON - Allies of singing sensation Susan Boyle rallied round Monday as it emerged she was rushed to a London clinic with exhaustion and possible mental health problems soon after a shock talent show defeat.
Boyle, whose frumpy appearance hid a soaring voice which made her a global star, was taken by ambulance to the Priory Clinic in north London Sunday accompanied by paramedics and police after acting strangely at her hotel, The Sun newspaper reported.The news came hot on the heels of her surprise defeat late Saturday in the final of the "Britain's Got Talent" television show, when she was voted into second place by the public behind urban dance troupe Diversity.
Feeling shocked,I searched all her competition vedios and new since she joined the famous TV show,"Britain's Got Talent".Making the comparison between her first and last singing performance,there are total different feeling though she sang the same song I Dreamed a Dream from the musical Les Miserables.At the beginning,she was a happy woman who dreames to be the most famous singer in England.She showed her optimistim facing the audience's taunts.By her powerful voice,everyone was touched.And she showed her great confidence,fearing nothing.She just wanted to fulfill her dream and life was seemed so beautiful.From her singing,you can see the energy and thus deeply moved.
However,the reality is sometimes so cruel that make people cry.Susan suffered a great pressures after her sudden popular among people all over the world.Peopple looked everything from her.Family,marriage,age and so on.Even her appearance is widely disscussed.Through the last video can see the obvious distinctions between her first performance.
Wearing beautiful dress with thick make-up,you can see the big changes.Her singing techinique also improves a lot.Everything seemed so perfect except one thing:she's not happy.Through the video can observe her fatigue.The happy Susan disappeared,instead,there's a tired woman who suffered extreme pressures for seven weeks.Finally,she collapsed after the competition.
With this example came a heavy thought.Is that really worthwhile?If she can choose again,will she step into the same road?I have no idea.Pursuing fame and money are human nature and commonly think that the more you get,the happier you will be.
Really?
I think that all things need to be paid off.Once you make a decision,you need to have a self-conscious that your life may change beyond your control.But before that decision day coming,be cherish about what you have.That's the most important thing through life.After all,you don't know the future and the change.But you can hold the present!

Her first performance,hope we all can remember our original insistence!!

[Summary]Nonverval Behavior:Some Intricate and Diverse Dimensions in Interculture Communication

John Smith lived in New York and just had a vacation in Puerto Rico where people spoke Spanish.He thought that he was fluent enough talking to the nativepeople but considered people there are not organized.He showed the example about going to the largest department store.The salesman turned to greet him as soon as he walked in while he was serving the other customers.Later John was furious seeing that the salesman was interrupted and he needed to wait for his turn.
This is the misunderstanding because John can't "speak" the nonverbal language of Puerto Rico.John assumes every culture is a monochronic pattern of cummunication while people in Puerto Rico is a polychronic concept of time.From John's perspective,time tasks are completed one at a time and there should be an apology if customers are not served in the order of their arrival.However,from Puerto Rico salesman's aspect,he tried to serve all customers at the same time and thought he had down his duty and was polite.It simply is the different ways people use their time and the misunderstanding is easily to occur when they meet.

Fantastic trip to Mautu Discovery Forest (綠光森林)

Thanks to the four day Dragon Boat Festival holidays, my friend and I planned to take a visit to the Mautu Discovery Forest on Thursday. It was raining when we went out and was not proper to ride the motorcycle. But we prepared for a long time and didn’t want to give up. So we decided to follow our plan unless the weather was not permitted. After about one and half hour tough riding, we finally arrived at the forest. Surprisingly, the weather was so good in the mountain that I needed to put off my coat!
Mautu Discovery Forest is located in an aborigine tribe in Guan-Xi(關西). The word Mautu means the gathering of everything in the tribe’s language. The forest is popularity gained by good reputation because of a famous drama,”Greenlight Elementary”. The constructions in the drama are well-retained and the whole forest then be filled with beautiful fairy tales’ atmosphere. The air in the forest was so fresh that I felt my lung was smiling at me!

There many cute wooden handicrafts along the paths. Watching these cute toys can make you feel relaxed and happy!

Tall trees make the whole forest excellent atmosphere.It seemed that all worries and unhappy things are separated by the dense trees.

----Walking around as you please.----

----Breathing the fresh air.----

----Feeling the vivid nature.----

----Releasing the pressure.-----

I think that life may sometimes have somem difficulities happen in everybody's daily life.When you feel disappointed and feel that you can't endure any more, a short rest is nesserary.A trip like visiting the nature is a wonderful way to settle yourself!

My favorite song

I'm Gonna Be Around - Michael Learns To RockPoster

It's been so long since we took the time
to share words from deep inside us
We're in our own world spinning our wheels
but you know how I feel

Well since the first time I took your hand
my love for you has just been growing
You always seem to understand
You know how I am

Chorus:
I'm gonna love you til the end
I'm gonna be your very true friend
I wanna share your ups and downs
I'm gonna be around

When you're alone and I'm away
don't be sad don't be afraid
I'm gonna turn my thoughts to you
like I always do

Chorus:
I'm gonna love you til the end
I'm gonna be your very true friend...

Catch you when you fall
Hold you when you're down
Sharing every moment
I wanna show you all I do
I believe I've found a miracle in you

Chorus:
I'm gonna love you til the end
I'm gonna be your very true friend...

Departures---touching your heart deeply

The movie "Dapartures" is a touching and sensitive journey into the deep heart and astonishingly look at a sacred part of Japan's cultural heritage.

After the symphony orchestra was disbanded,Daigo Kobayashi faces the fact that not everyone who has passion can become an extraordinary musician or a top artist.With his wife's support,he gives up hos premiere career, decides moving back to his homeland and searchs for another job.

By accident,he joins the line of bussiness which is the ceremonial "encoffination" of corpses prior to cremation.In desperate straits,Daigo overcomes his trepidation and begins to travel around with Sasaki.Sasaki is comically matter-of-fact but firm in his directives and the contentation that they are providing an important service to their community.Some cases are markedly traditional,featuring beatific family members in time-honored transition.Others highlight family dramas fraught with inevitable collisions,eased into unexpected conclusion.True to Sasaki's expectations,Daigo developes a deep respect for life in all its variations,and a profound empathy for people trying to make peace with the finality of death.

Through many contradictories and fights,the story discloses the vulnerability of human nature.It's a story of love,of discovery,of revelation and of the transcending human spirit,"Departues" will arouse many feelings and in the mind long after viewing it.

Losing what you love is such a great pain that difficult to endure.By seeing the process of the solemn ceremonies for the death can make you not only feel the truest emotions about human but also remind you to cherish things around you.Once they pass away,it's no use to say regretfulness.

Martin Luther King, Jr.

Martin Luther King, Jr., Devoted his life to helping people who were poor, disadvantaged, and racially oppressed in the United States.

He was born on January 15, 1929 in Atlanta and in 1948 graduated from Morehouse with a Bachelor of Arts degree in sociology, and enrolled in Crozer Theological Seminary in Chester, Pennsylvania, from which he graduated with a Bachelor of Divinity degree in 1951. King then began doctoral studies in systematic theology at Boston University and got his Doctor of Philosophy .when he was nineteen, working as a field secretary for the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC) in St. Augustine, Florida in 1964. One day he was caught by five men and a woman who accused him of being a “communist and a Yankee.” When he learned of the incident, Martin Luther King was motivated and identified with the populist tradition and assigned him to organize poor whites. The heroes he honored are Gandhi and Rustin. Inspired by Gandhi's success with non-violent activism, which affected King in a profound way, deepening his understanding of non-violent resistance and his commitment to America’s struggle for civil rights. African American civil rights activist Bayard Rustin, who had studied Gandhi's teachings, counseled King to dedicate himself to the principles of non-violence, served as King's main advisor and mentor throughout his early activism, and was the main organizer of the 1963 March on Washington. Rustin's open homosexuality, support of democratic socialism, and his former ties to the Communist Party USA caused many white and African-American leaders to demand King distance himself from Rustin.

King won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1964, he said in his acceptance remark, "Freedom is one thing. You have it all or you are not free". And then he continued to do his best to fight for the weakness and powerless people. At 33, he was pressing the case of civil rights with President John Kennedy. At 34, he galvanized the nation with his "I Have a Dream" speech. And at 39, he was assassinated, but he left a legacy of hope and inspiration that continues today.

Giving a helping hand

"To the world,you may be one person.But to one person,you may be the world" is the proverb which I like most.In modern society,people often disguise themselves for fear that they may get hurt.Giving others help somehow become a "special thing" which require lots thinking.But I think that situation is very strange.
Last month I joined a series activiites which show of some examples of people who are in need and some people give helping hands without asking for repay.Their reason is very simple,"we have the strength to help others,why not giving the helping hands?"I wholly agreee that for I think that human beings can't live alone.You will need somebody's help one day.It's not how wealth you are but how willing you want to give.

hello

it's ruby!
