Lip balm

there were a topic about lip balm on a wednesday night class.
the teacher mike asked us a question how much you want to pay for you and everybody's answer is different and interesting.
an old man robert said if he buys this female product, he would pay $1000-value-price for his wife. wow, the best husband her wife has.
another old woman fairy said before she uses the cheaper lip balm which is $100 that she didn't feel it is good to use, so she changed another brand one about thounds of money and felt it's better to use.
a kind of shamful girl who seated next to me, said she could spend $300 a lip balm.
last about me, i just use under $50 to pay this cosmetic product, even now the product i use which is bought from a chain female store '' sara'' and it's a discount product.
the conlution is how much something that you want to pay is up to you.

Burial alive

it's so scary as we hear some unfortunate people get a buried alive when they are still alive.
such a terrible thing that i orginally thought it just happens in the movie or drama is indeed occurring on the real world.
seldom having anything that can be perfectly finished without even a little mistakes including premature burial.
i have learned a man having this similar situation that he is a dead patient by accident, but no longer he mysterly
recurrated again. also he amazed his relife and narrated his dead memory during his body maintaining non-life sympotoms which he seems to enter a all-dark world without any sound or something as if it is his own place, only him.
no matter people is dead or will be dying, i think the most terrifrightening thing is you know you will die but you must wait the dead time arriving.

Horseriding

horseriding is a traditional and attracting recreation, which also can regard as it a sport.
it makes me associate with horse racing gamble, which this event that i first touch it on cnn porogram ''winning post'' is a local activity in england.
it seems like the english people are favor to join the kind of racing, though the teacher who i asked about it with relation of his country-England answered that he had played this game in Australia.
on the past it is a animal-transportation tool, but now we can ride it in some horse farms for fun.
maybe we would have this riding as a cowboy in our dream tonight.

Knowledge is power

indeed, '' knowledge is power,'' the same as like '' money is power'' which i mentioned on one writing class.
living on the society, in another word, using your professional ability to make a living, which is equal to the useful ''knowledge'' to create your social value and wealth.
what is knoledge? the knowledge of everyone owning is true? or be worthy for you? we don't know. the only way of recognizing and gaining what we need is to try it.
for me an example, i am learning abc now in gvo, if no accident i would stay there until six months. but in the period of  time i have many conversations with different people who are my teachers or classmates, and think about my future with relation of english. i am clearly knowing what is my shortage, however, i could face the extremely difficult dilema highly possibly, which hesitates me not going ahead without confidence. even now i haven't walked out the next step, but there is one thing without variation that time still passes and the choice which i make will come true in the end.
ok, i jump another theme again. back the topic that i just say: action is always the most efficient method of getting the knowledge what you want.

Left-handedness

in the beginning of my first class today, my teacher, Adam, told us that he is a left-hander which is also told me that i am not alone.
as i was a kid in that kindergarten time, i had a bad memory for my left-handed writing.
now i forget what happened in that time, but i still remember that my cousin sister had told me that she was enforced by her mother to change her writing hand into the right.for the educated way from her mother, she got the body penalty for the case.i am sorry about her; i am a left-handedness, though i didn't get the penalty like hers, my childhood is not happy as well.
thanks for the modern society which is kind to accept the left-handed group, for the success of one's career it is not a main factor associating with which hand to use.

Slacklining

i saw many relative slacklining reports on TV.
the slackers have a best sense of balance so they can walk on the tightrope even which is shorter than one inch width.but i think they must spend a long time to exercise their slackining skills and maneuvers to have a deeper this kind of sport ability.like the old saying that Rome is not built in one day.
besides, there are many and many extreme sports to enjoy for those who want to have an exciting experience.so as i am young, why not to try them in my only life?

Climate change

climate change indeed makes a huge influence for creatures of the world.

however, just like the proverb said: anything has its good and bad sides at the same time.

especially for businessmen for increasing their profits, they have a different attitude for this event.

as almost people around the world are worried that the nature variation could hurt their life environment, these entrepreneurs find the golden chance for making money.

they make advantage of the global warming which causes

the arctic ice caps melting to develop the bottle-water products.

all we can say that the rich people become richer in relation of their different thinking to create their poverty.

The Fake Formosan

be a real Taiwanese, the fraud who pretends him as a Taiwanese, even the former time, whose behaviors are not agreed by me.

but for his real-like performance, i admired him that he could cheat most Europeans to believe his lies, and get the famous university- oxford's interview for being a permanent lecturer.

everyone living in this world, they have their own method to make a living.

for an instance-a beggar, who must show his poor condition such as sleeping on the street or park or wearing the dirty clothes to get the kind-heart passengers' pity for him to give him food or money.

this con artist's unusual deed style makes him be a special celebrity on the history. 

My complicating emotion

about my complicating emotion today, it is just combined into exciting, serious, scary and another feeling what i don't know how to say for it.

this morning i got a tour oral test about one year, not a long time. i picked a number lot in a red bag, and then started my formal examination. in the beginning i didn't feel anxious or something, but in the official condition i changed my sensitivity so worried gradually. without having a non-talking respondent matching a blanking thinking immediately like my past speech experience, i became easygoing to talk the examinees. after the examine over, i reflected my performance. frankly speaking, i got a not good expression in it, because my attitude regarded as a tour leader to show in my tour guide test. so, i made a big mistake for it. besides, in the end of the conversation with examinees i uncontrollably made an impolite behavior which i sprayed a drop of fluid from my mouth out due to my serious anxiety. on my way back to gvo i regretted about the rude movement and my answer. anyway i still maintain my thought toward the positive side of outcome as to build a mental preparation face the worst result of my test.    

About weight

I really was thankful to get a chance learning about the experience sharing from my foreign teacher, Mike.

He narrated something about his country-the U.S. which is the overweight phenomenon of their natives.

There is approximately 66.7% heavy citizens of the entire population in this undeveloped country.

Compared with their critics, our Taiwan’s partly of women who get trunk legs or a bucket-like waist to get worried for their figures is just a piece of cake.

Even we have no problem about the lowest appetizer for meals.

In my conclusion, doing ourselves is important for us. 

The discovering of my future

everyone's lucky condition isn't decided ourselves, in the another word, it is randomly to occur. in this time almost people hope gotten a lucky gift which is money because we want to improve our material quality of life to enjoy the superior house surrounding, wonderful meals, and experiencing high value of attemptions.

of course, i do agree that money is no power for everything, but if we have a little income just to satisfy the basic supplement, it means that we are for our life keeping on until its time dries up. does it have any value to do? i still meditate this problem to inflect my entire life at what i want to desire? human as if any creation having its limited time, perhaps there are someone using their total life to think about this philosophical discovering like me? god, may i got it quickly!

The Indy 500

i really admire the traditional custom of the auto racing, the Indy 500, which is drinking milk after the competition ending. it is so special that relating the fresh milk with the annual car racing in one local region of Indiana of the u.s.

though i think it is a business hypo from a dairy farmer for his industrial benefit, it indeed is a creative and recreational way of celebrating this activity. if some day our country holds this kind of exciting sport item, why not to try this funny healthy encouraging method for this automobile racing?

Live and learn

Live and learn is like a twin with a close relationship. A bird as it is little must learn how to fly, so it is nothing to saying human beings learn using chopsticks to eat the food or take on their clothes to dress up.

When we were children, our parents taught us the knowledge of daily life such as cleaning our teeth, taking a bath, or speaking our native language, and the ethics of human society. Be a student in school, we had to cultivate our profession abilities or skills to make a future preparation for making a living. Even we are in society now, for maintaining the competing ability ourselves, we must keep studying another professions to supporting our career.

No wonder the saying appeared which is to learn during our life, and mostly people have a bad wood for their lives.

Beijing's pollution

It looks like the smog pollution of Beijing, the capital of china, is ‘’well-known’’ for the world over.

No wonder it happened this worst event caused by the industrial plants.

So now their primer took an address for his citizens that their environment would improve better no longer by changing the country’s industrial development.

Although his speech is just as a bullshit, all talk for talk, indeed he needed to do it as a leader of a nation.

Lego

like magic cube, Lego, the amazing brick toys also has been a long time existing.

its creator is a carpenter, and due to his huge invention his decedent become the wealthiest citizens to their country.

even following the modern era's tendency, Lego company use their products to make movies and relative media songs.

its development is too surprising to associate that it had been on nearly bankruptcy once a time.

no matter it will be in the future, it indeed is a great accomplishment to have everyone knowing about it. 

Cuts through bone about its creator

the article, i saw yesterday night, talked about a murderer in jail got an award of private-eye book that let me surprised very much.

though the criminal author had done the unforgivable mistake, along 30 years of his jail life he created the famous detective novel to expose his writing talent.

for his amazing story i am inspired that whatever you are in a poor or rich family, it doesn't influence your potential blossoming up.

if you know what you want and keep making it coming true, you will have a day to stand the stage of world. 

Greenhouse

having a beautiful own garden is a prize for me, now it is managed by a form of greenhouse.

all we know that the important factor of planting is temperature, therefore, greenhouse has its unique temperature modification such as our air condition which can change its interior environment according to the plant species.

modern people has a little chance to touch the green nature because of busy life and urban environment, so making a greenhouse or farm is a best way of feeling the sound of ecosystem.

hope one day i can have a garden my own.

Mobile

現代人有許多擁有一到兩隻的手機。

everyone have their smartphones one or two more now.

以我來說，我從今年起有一隻提供上網功能的雜牌手機。

for me, i have a nonfamous mobile from this year having an internet function online.

它的內建系統來自google，讓我比較傾向使用它的軟體應用於日常作業中。

the operating system of my phone is google android so i prefer to use google softwares for my daily work.

大部分的使用者，甚至13~15歲的青少年至少有一組臉書帳號。

even the teenagers about thirteen to fifteen mostly users almost have one facebook account.

我們使用這類的社交聯絡系統與我們的家人、好友和公事上的客戶建立溝通的橋梁互通有無。

we use such this social messaging system to make relationships with our family, friends, and clients.

網路是便利我們生活和工作的使用工具，如何運用它全憑個人的本事。

internet using is a tool to help our life or work convenient that how to make use of it is up to how we think to use.

The web era

自從網路出現，相關的獲利商機越來越多。

from the internet appearing, the business opportunity with relation of it becomes more and more larger.

沒有龐大的成本供支，它就能利用電腦科技去創造碩大利潤。

without lots of investment spending, it can use the technology of computer to create the huge benefit.

進而促使越來越多下一代進入這個產業發展。

it also caused numbers of next generation youngsters into this industry to develop their careers.

據實來說，未來將會是網路的世代，人們必須依賴它過活。

frankly speaking, in the future it will be an internet era that human can't live without the web to use.

即便是現在依然如此。

in fact it indeed is like that even now. 

A fighting chance

台灣主權要獲得全世界的國際認可實在是一件微乎其微的念想。

to get a clear indentation on the world for taiwan is a fighting chance.

像香港這樣曾被其他國家殖民的地方，它的人民必須接受當代的政府的政令規範，好比簡體文的使用和國家選選舉制度。

hong kong like some counties which had been another countries' colonies , its critics needs to adapt their recent government's policies such as simple chinese language writing or their political selecting system.

對我而言，首要希望我的國家能成為聯合國一員獨擔一面。

for me, the first wish i hope to is being independence for my country that could become one member of the united nations.

但結果相當渺茫，所以我也考慮過依附美日強國的念頭。

but it looks like a little change to come true, therefore, i even consider the possibility of depending on the strong nations, American or japan.

對於我很鄭重提出的想法，許多人對此啼笑皆非。

the thought which i am serious to mention is teased by many people hearing that notion.

到現在它仍舊處在尷尬的局勢上，但願有一天能有好結果。

our country is still located on the embarrassing situation until now which hope someday it will have a happy ending.

Do exercise

現代人從早起上班到下班返家的通勤是習以為見的。

being a modern person, the commute from the morning getting up to work to the night back home is a common daily life.

同如常態運動一樣花時花精力，它也算是一種另類的運動。

even it can be regarded as a special sport that it needs to spend time and energy as same as the regulatory sports.

我騎單車到地球村也算是等同在運動。

i indeed do exercise for going to GVO by riding my folding bike.

它不只讓你到要去的地方也有益身體。

it is not only to go to a destination where you want to but also give you a chance to strengthen your body.

事半功倍是講究效率的辦事模式。

one thing having double effects at the same time is a more efficient way.

再者，我覺得為運動而運動的做法是有點在浪費時間。

besides, do exercise for taking a sport is kinds of time wasting i think.

    

Ivory

依我來看，象牙是給有錢人的奢侈配飾。

in my thought the ivory is a most expensive decoration for the rich.

我唯有從電視上才能親眼看到它。

the opportunity only i can see it is when i watch the TV program about it.

在我們國家，跟金飾、玉物相較之下，它是挺少見的。

in our country it usually rarely is seen compared to gold or jade commonly.

從那些可憐的動物身上摘取牠們寶貴的牙角是不被贊同的作為。

it is not to encourage for its developing from the poor animals having the valuable horns.

同如在獲利上能短時間謀取龐大的暴利一般不置可否。

such the same that its benefit has much boost at a short time.

這種情況對於那些象牙產國的政府來說可是燙手山芋般不易應付。

it is a headache problem for the government of the ivory original country to solve.

Hawaii takes some hits

說到夏威夷，沒有人不會想去看看。

no one don't like to go there as we talk about hawaii.

身為從未出過國的華人，我嚮往到那充滿陽光熱情的島嶼度假。

be a chinese person who don't go aboard outside, i have a desire to take a vacation to where, which is always sunshine and passionate.

不過，現實是殘酷的；他們當地居民必須負擔比美國內陸的居民多一倍的開銷。

however, the reality of it is crucial that their local people must afford more expensive life expense twice than the continental one in the U.S.

更可怕的是當地火山造成的灰霧造就出來的環境品質跟大陸首都北京由工廠排放的廢氣造成的煙霧效果有得比。

also there is a terrible air environment where the vog causes from their volcanic mountain as same as china capital beijing's smog from the factories' pollution.

總之，如果我有機會去天堂之島，我會親自見證是否它真如之前提到的狀況一樣糟。

anymay, if i have the chance to go the heaven island, i would prove whether the place is just like what it is said before by myself.

Space trip

提及到太空旅行，我看過一位CNN女記者有幸在一個商業節目親身體驗短暫的太空之旅。

about the space tourism, i saw a CNN female reporter who had a space short-time experience for one business program.

當然，首先她得先做全身檢查評估和相關課程的受訓。

she, of course, firstly passed the health check and attended the relation classes to join the space trip.

甚至她還帶一隻泰迪熊與她一起在無重力的空間飄浮。

even she took this journey with her teddy bear, during the exciting travel in the environment without gravity, it also flew up on the air as same as her.

像這種體驗著重在你能像鳥兒般飛行在空中，且做任何肢體動作，像是全方位旋轉或水中泳姿。

the flying experience focuses on the feeling like a bird flying on the sky, and we can do any actions such as rotating your body all the angle or swimming as in the water.

要是我有足夠的金錢，我會非常享受這個活動。

if i had enough money, i would much enjoy this activity. 

Godzilla

仿造古代恐龍，怪獸哥吉拉降臨於世。

imitating the ancient dinosaur, the monster, Godzilla was born on the world.

凡是看過牠的電影的都知道牠，連從他人口中得知的人也一樣。

it is known for all the audience who has seen its movie, even the people who just heard about it from someone' month.

日本人非常有想像力，以致於創造出異於現實中存在的生物，古怪中帶有恐懼故而稱之為怪物。

Japanese people have a strong ability of imaginary, so they create numerous of non-reality alive thing, which is so strange with a scaring feeling that we called them monster .

牠的電影暢銷到全世界無人不知無人不曉，即便我不喜歡牠的造型。

its movie indeed is a best seller even known for anyone all the world, though it isn't my flavor.

A heads-up from the world economic forum

隨著科技的進步，我們的生活也變得越來越便利。

throughout the high-tech industries improving step by step, our human's life becomes more and more convenient.

為了克服陰晴不定的氣候所造成的天災

，科學家發明人造雨去解決水資源匱乏的問題。即便是現在，我們的生活作息仍受天氣左右。

for overcoming the climate sometimes without cooperating to cause flooding or drought, our scientists invented artificial raining to resolve the water shortage crisis. even now, we still match the weather with our daily days.

近來3D印刷科技的出現，雖然會為實體製作相關工程帶來龐大的商機，同時也被一些不肖人士用在製造非法器械的用途上。所以說，事情的好壞往往一體兩面。

recently 3D printer technology showed up on the world, through it will bring a large economical benefit in relation with real image-manufacturing engines, at the same time it could be applied on making illegal weapons by some bad-hearted people. therefore, a thing happening always has both its good and bad sides.

令人矛盾的是我嚮往天然原始的環境生活，卻也離不開電子產品生存。

it is paradoxical that i admire living an undeveloped environment for a life, but i depend on the electrical products to live as well.

From Indiana with love

我與由印第安納州的藝術家羅伯卡克設計的''愛之塑''的首次相遇來自於一本名為「華麗的挑戰」日本漫畫中的場景。

the first look i had about the ''love'' sculpture which is designed by Robert Clark, an artist coming from Indiana is the scene from a Japanese comics called ''skip beat.''

真是美妙的邂逅。也許是在這個作品公諸於世時，這部漫畫的繪者也迎合這個時事將它融入作品裡。

so fantastical our meeting about that. maybe as the appearance of the sculpture showed off all the world, the author of the comics cooperated this current event involving into his story background.

遺憾的是當時我沒有特別注意它在現實生活中的事跡。

sadly that time i didn't pay attention on the artwork that is a real work piece on the reality.

不過說實在的，它的確是件很成功的作品，在於它那簡易明瞭的字意表達。

however, it indeed is a successful creature regarding his obvious word expression.

綜觀全天下的塑像，備受矚目的藝術品並不需要過多的裝飾來凸顯它的精華所在。

seeing all the sculptures on the world, the best impressive accomplishment does not need to have excessive decorating to show its essence.

Water crisis in West Virginia

一些像日本、美國的國家有幸提供人民完善的供水系統不需煮沸即可飲用的自來生水。

there are some lucky countries such as Japanese and American, having their bona fide water supply system which can have their people to drink tap water without boiling.

不過凡事總有萬一，美國一州西維基尼亞就是一個不幸的例子。

but anything always would have an accident into itself like one state of the U.S., west Virginia which is a unfortunate example.

縱然他們的政府不斷的保證他們的水可以安心飲用，實際真相為何卻無人能知。

though their government constantly promised their water is safe to drink, the real fact of this event is not known for anyone.

看來世上最純淨的飲水只能到古早時候才能找到。

Death at the zoo

如果有人問我說「你同意莫利歐斯的園長給它注射致死並將它的屍體公開解剖嗎？你認為這樣做對一位體健的長頸鹿是適當的嗎？」

if someone ask me the question: do you agree that the Marius's zookeeper took it a dead shot and had it a dissection on public? do you think the event is properly to happen for a healthy giraffe?

像任何一位動物愛護者一樣，我只會回答說不。為什麼？這還需要理由嗎？它不是一隻因病受苦而需要給予生命解脫的動物，但卻因為它那一般般的基因必須受死。對它真是太不公平了。我唯一能為它做的就是默哀。再會了，莫里歐斯。一路好走。

only my answer is ,like any animal protector, saying no. why? does it need a reason to explain? it is not a sick animal to give it a receiving of his life, but it was enforced to die for its ordinary gene. such an unfair destiny to it. merely i can do is make a farewell to it. bye, Marius. good luck on your paradise way.

Rising early

in Chinese saying: ''the bird which gets up early could have the first breakfast to eat.'' even it could sure be, i still want to have a sleep time up to me. unlike the old like my grandma, she goes to bed early before ten p.m. and also rise up early without the morning time six a.m. arriving.

of course is having someone to do it due to their interest, like my teacher James. i'm very impressed to anyone who likes to get up early. unless the necessity of my job, i prefer to sleep until my eyes opening.

Marius, Morris, Mike

世界真小，總有相似的事情同時發生。

the world is too small, so there are many similar things happening at the same time.

同一天兩篇在不同雜誌上報導的文章都在談論長頸鹿馬利歐斯。

in a same day two article were reported in different magazines which unanimously talked about the giraffe marius.

而且我的一位老師馬利斯，他的名字讀起來跟它像極了。

and one of my teachers called Morris, which his name sounds like the giraffe's.

我的另一位老師馬克，他的名字讀音跟我的馬利斯很像。

my another teacher also is as same as the name's sound like my teacher Morris, whose name is mike.

我會說他們的名字相似是因為他們有趣的小名。

why i said their names almost same is their funny nicknames.

馬利斯認識的一位超商店員總是喚他「小莫」，表示他們之間親近的友誼關係。

Morris’s companion, a 7-11 clerk he knows, always calls him the Chinese name ''la mo'' meaned their close friendship.

另一位叫麥克的老師說他的中文名叫小麥，我給他解釋這個小名充滿青春和活力。

another one, mike, called his Taiwanese name '' sha ma'', which i explain his nickname is so young and energy for him.

然而，他們倆都不是很喜歡他們的別名，不過等時間久了或許就會習慣吧。

however, both of them don't like their another names, but the occasion will become better that time will tell.  

Black morning day

an unlucky accident happened. no longer after going to GVO, i met into the power without working. so shocked for me that some little angry asking the reception girl what's happened. as the situation came, i was listening the English exercise by computer. resulted from the power shortage, i changed to hand-copy magazines used on tomorrow's classes. then i had an unforgettable and uncomfortable with my eyes class experience. ''almost if our classroom would be lent for the another class.'' said my teacher. he made some complaints for me. i thought it wouldn't happened because of the influence about our students' learning rights. whatever the reason why the power disability was caused by, the light shone while it lasted two or more hours waiting the power recovering. thanks for the power coming again, or i would still struggle with back home or not.

Leonardo DiCaprio, an academy award loser

我知道一位以電影「鐵達尼號」出名的劇星李奧納多。

i know the famous actor, Leonardo DiCaprio, who was known for the romantic movie ''Titanic.''

英俊瀟灑且有獨特魅力的他無不受女性傾慕。

he is a handsome and unique self-charming man that no  female can't be attracted by him.

不過，從他在葛萊美獲獎的成績來看可是差到谷底

，好比是走場露面一樣。

however, it looks like his fortune for academy awards is awful for which he just was visited for being a guest.

在我印象中他曾飾演一部從經典小說改編成電影的偵探角色。

the character he had played in my memory is a detective, whose story comes from a traditional novel.

老實說，我是因為他出眾的外表而看好他；他也不辜負天生的皮相，成為名符其實的花花公子。

Actually, i appreciate him because of his excellent appearance; making use of his advantage, he has quite a few of scandals with beautiful actresses.

Asthma: an epidemic among kids

說到氣喘，我叔叔的女兒也患有這種疾病。

about asthma, it makes me associate my cousin, who is my uncle's daughter and a sufferer of this disease as well.

預防氣喘復發，我總是會看到她隨身攜帶的醫療噴藥劑。

avoid recovering the symptom from asthma, i saw a medical sprayer which she always carries with.

除此之外，她的生活作息與常人一般。

except having this situation, her life is as same as common others, too.

一種罹患氣喘的說法是居住環境所致。

one explaining about the reason how to get asthma is resulted from the environment where the patients live.

有人建議到少有空氣污染的鄉村定居。

someone suggest the solving way is inhabiting the fresh countryside with rare air pollution.

就我來看，我更傾向於適應接納它甚於用藥物治療。

in my view, i prefer to adapt this disease instead of taking the medicine.
