My Reading Journal 1

I selected the book "Views and Values",which includes many short storys and diverse articles on universal themes.At the begining I was little bit frustrated because there were lots of vocabularies I've never seen,that makes me read slowly and not knowing what was the author trying to tell readers.Then I told myself to be patient,finally,I finished that,I still did it!!

The first story is named "A Mother in Manneille",written by Marjorie Rawlings.It's describing a relationship between an orphan and an adult,the orphan worked for her,and he told her that he has a mother just like her,she always sends him presents in special days.The adult also likes him,and she couldn't understand why his mother left such a clever child here,where is near from her working place.
After a few days the adult was going to move to another place,she went to the orphanage,visiting the little boy,then she realized that he has no mother and no presents !

Sometimes we may use our imagination to help us cope with reality,like the little boy.Perhaps an orphan's greatest wish is having a mother that can send him warm and love.He's a clever boy,but he lie to the adult,also to himself.
Although it's fine to evade the reality sometimes,we can't evade them forever.Try to accept them and to conquer the sadness then you can set yourself free.
After all,we have to face the music some day.

my reading log

recenty i've started my reading,and i was a little bit frustrated.
maybe thats beacause i didnt read during this winter vacation and i got strange to english...
i think i have to read frequently so that i can do this faster.
well i always think i'm not an active learner,thats really really bad :-(
hope that this semester i can do my reading log well.

its really hard to conquer laziness...
ooh i'll try my best.

go go sister !!
lol

a new semester

this new semester we have to chose a book which we are into it,
and we have to write down our feeling in blog.
i think it's a big task because i haven't done this before !
i dont know if i can do this well,but i'll take this task !!


i read a poem :

To see a world in a grain of sand
And a heaven in a wild flower
Hold infinity in the palm of your hand
And eternity in an hour

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　---William Blake

i think that if we be aware to things suround us,we'll learn something gorgeous.
　

Whitney Houston I Will Always Love You

If I should stay
I would only be in your way,
So I'll go, but I know
I will think of you every step of the way.

And I... will always love you, will always love you...
you, my darling you, you

Bittersweet memories,
That is all I'm taking with me.
So good bye, please don't cry.
We both know I'm not what you, you need.

And I-ee-I... will always love you-oo, I will always love you-oo

(Saxaphone solo)

I hope life treats you kind,
And I hope you have all you dreamed of.
And I wish you joy and happiness,
but above all this i wish you, love.

And I-ee-I will always love you-oo, I will always love you, I will always love
you-oo, I will always love you-oooo, I will always love you-oooo, I , I will
always love...you, you, darling I love you, oh I will always, I will always
love, you-oooo.


this is an old song,which recently i have heard it again and again.
Whitney Houston's amazing,i love her voice,and this lyric is beautiful !
oldies always have their aura,that's really charming !
i think it's worth listening again and again.

hey it's 2008

time flies,and now it's 2008.
in 2007,i have experienced lots of things,through the entrance exam,i entered NTPU,and realize what's college life.
although there were many frustrations in 2007,i think i have tried my best,so there are nothing to blame.
in this brand new year,i hope i can take some new tasks that i have never done before,learning more from acting and be more active in what i'd like to learn or i'd like to know.
good luck :-D

Beatles Come Together

this christmas i attended a concert,this is the song which played when we were waithing for the opening.
this is a special christmas eve,we spent our time with the singers who we love,and there was a activity that we change presents with others attending the concert,i love music,and i enjoyed the singer's music very much !
the revenue of this concert will devote to charities,because they think christmas is a festival about sharing and love.

it's worth attending this concert,come together this christmas :-D

Maria Taylor - A Good Start

You're one with the burdon of intuition.
You're one with the freedom of a blank stare.
You're one with the best friend you lost,
You wish was still there.

You're one with the dust on that old piano.
You're one with the strings on your new guitar.
You're one with the wind through the open window,
You are.

It was a faint line that brought you here,
And a pulse that kept you in time.
It was the comfort of a tradition,
Like the few that were not that kind.

It's a shame now, baby, you can't see yourself, And everything you're running from.
And it's the same world, honey, that has brought You down,
As the one that's gonna pick you up.
And pick you up.

You're one with the echos of conversation.
You're one with the strangers you overheard.
You're one with the lesson that was the best one you learned.

It was a faint line that brought you here,
And a pulse that kept you in time.
It was the comfort of a tradition,
Like the few that were not that kind.
But you are.

It's a shame now, baby, you can't see yourself, And everything you're running from.
And it's the same world, honey, that has brought You down,
As the one that's gonna pick you up.
And pick you up.

It was a long, dark, sleepy morning walk.
You fell down, case and point.
It was a good start.
It was a good start.

It was a long, dark, sleepy morning walk.
You fell down, case and point.
It was a good start.
It was a good start.

It's a shame now, baby, you can't see yourself, And everything you're running from.
And it's the same world, honey, that has brought You down,
As the one that's gonna pick you up.

And it's a shame now, baby, you can't separate
Yourself from where you stood.
And it's the same world, honey, that made you feel so bad,
As the one that makes you feel so good.
Feel so good.




i luv this song!
i think the lyrics shows some contradictions in lives,
especially the sentence "it's the same world, honey, that has brought You down,as the one that's gonna pick you up."
there are always two sides on one thing,and sometimes that makes me feel so ridiculous or ironic.
well,and i luv the melodies,too.hope u would luv this song :-)
