I am big big girl, in a big big world......
  • Days on My Past

    2008-04-30 11:05:41

    I recall when I was young. Oh I will play and always having fun
    With the neighbors next to me and we'll play until the setting sun
    Try to be the best among the others in a game call the "spider battle"
    It doesn't matter who is the best now. Those were the days of my past

    A few years later when I got to school and was late for lesson all the time
    Always day dreaming in the class, till I don't even know the lesson's done
    Then my teacher always tell me never ever be lazy again
    What can I do now? What can I say now? Those were the days of my past

    As the days go on and on I grew up and had my first love
    Candle light and sandy beach finally give away my first kiss
    Mother said I was too young to fall in love and then I will one day regret
    So love was over, but I do miss her. Those were the days of my past

    Just when I left my high school and got my first job as salesmen
    Working hard all day and night. No one there to lend a helping hand
    Daddy told me not to worry and said that l should go on step by step
    What can I say now? What can I do now? Those were the days of my past

    Then once day I settled down with the only one I really love
    Got a small family with two kids that is what I'm always hoping for
    But I still remember having fun with all my friends when I was young
    I miss my home town. I miss my old friends, those the days of my past
    Oh I miss my home town I miss my old friends. When will I see them again?

  • The way of life

    2008-04-29 14:39:21

    You do not keep anything for a special occasion, because every day that you live is a special occasion.


    不要将一切都为某一天而准备,因为你生活的每一天都是那么特别;  

    Search for knowledge, read more, sit on your porch and admire the view without paying attention to your needs;

    不断汲取知识,多读一些书,坐在家里的前廊上,用赞美的眼光去享受眼前的风景,不要带有任何功利的想法;  

    Spend more time with your family and friends, eat your favorite foods, and visit the places you love;

    多花点时间和朋友与家人在一起,吃你爱吃的食物,去你想去的地方;  

    Life is a chain of moments of enjoyment; not only about survival;

    生活是一串串的快乐时光;我们不仅仅是为了生存而生存;  

    Use your crystal goblets. Do not save your best perfume, and use it every time you feel you want it.

    举起你的水晶酒杯吧。不要吝啬洒上你最好的香水,想用的时候就用吧!  

    Remove from your vocabulary phrases like "one of these days" or "someday";

    将所谓的"有那么一天"或"某一天"从你的字典中删掉;  

    Let's write that letter we thought of writing "one of these days"!

    曾打算"在那么一天"要写的信,就在今天提笔吧!  

    Let's tell our families and friends how much we love them;

    告诉家人和朋友,你是多么的爱他们;  

    Do not delay anything that adds laughter and joy to your life;

    做一切可以给你的生活带来欢笑与快乐的事情;  

    Every day, every hour, and every minute is special, and you don't know if it will be your last.

    每一天、每一小时、每一分钟都是那么特别;你无法知道这是否是你的最后一刻。

  • Do not wait...

    2008-04-29 13:54:08

    Don't wait for a smile to be nice...

    Don't wait to be loved, to love.

    Don't wait to be lonely, to recognize the value of a friend.

    Don't wait to for the best job, to begin to work.

    Don't wait to have a lot, to share a bit.

    Don't wait for the fall, to remember the advice.

    Don't wait for pain, to believe in prayer.

    Don't wait to have time, to be able to serve.

    Don't wait for anybody else pain, to ask for apologies...

    ...neither separation to make it up

    Don't wait...

    Because you don't know how long it will take.

    Remember: Friendship is like wine, it gets better as it grows older.

     

  • Low spirits

    2008-04-28 10:57:31

    The Monday comes again as usual.However, my mood not as happy as before. These days, I have been in no mood to do anything. One of my teeth almost change all my life. It is killing me. I can't do and eat anything. Now, I am straving and weak.

    It's been hanging about for a week. I have seen the doctor several times. Up to the present, I was not any better. I really feel depressed, but I have no idea what I should do.

    yesterday, I went shopping with my old brother. Both of us brought a pair of shoes. At noon, We ordered lots of dishes which I like to eat. However, I have no feeling to eat because I got a painful tooth. In fact, I didn't want to go out on yesterday. Because I haven't seen my old brother for ages, I must see him.

    Then, my sister called me When I come back. she was worry about my illness. When we talked with each other, she cough all the time. I knew she got a cold. After that, one of my roommates was getting a cold. Also, my best friend cought a cold. Oh, my god! What a beastly thing!

  • The price of love sweet

    2008-04-24 15:48:30

    I’m too busy to write my diary this morning. Now, I am also busy with my writing. I once told myself, “You must write a diary everyday except on Sunday.” In fact, I did it. I really love myself just like this.

     

    Yesterday, I asked for leave. Then I went to the hospital and saw the dentist. I was so weak and I felt I was going to die. However, the doctor managed to save my life. Tomorrow, I have to see the doctor again and fill my teeth. I hope it's will succeed this time.

     

    You know, I couldn’t do anything before yesterday. I was hungry but I couldn’t eat anything. I only stayed in bed and wanted to die. I think it was the worst things in my life. I never thought that a badly tooth nearly finished me off.

     

    I am so lucky! because I can live in this world again. I can talk with my parents on line. I can play Ping Pang with my colleagues, I can quarrel with my best friend, and I can work and enjoy life!

     

    I know: the health is the most important in our life. From now on, I should take care of myself .and I told myself, “You shouldn’t eat sweet so much and brush your teeth on time.” Please remember,Kag!

  • A Little Piece of Me

    2008-04-21 17:01:46

    When he told me he was leaving I felt like a vase which has just smashed. There were pieces of me all over the tidy, tan tiles. He kept talking, telling me why he was leaving, explaining it was for the best, I could do better, it was his fault and not mine. I had heard it before many times and yet somehow was still not immune; perhaps one did not become immune to such felony.

    He left and I tried to get on with my life. I filled the kettle and put it on to boil, I took out my old red mug and filled it with coffee watching as each coffee granule slipped in to the bone china. That was what my life had been like, endless omissions of coffee granules, somehow never managing to make that cup of coffee.

    Somehow when the kettle piped its finishing warning I pretended not to hear it. That‘s what Mike‘s leaving had been like, sudden and with an awful finality. I would rather just wallow in uncertainty than have things finished. I laughed at myself. Imagine getting all philosophical and sentimental about a mug of coffee. I must be getting old.

    And yet it was a young woman who stared back at me from the mirror. A young woman full of promise and hope, a young woman with bright eyes and full lips just waiting to take on the world. I never loved Mike anyway. Besides there are more important things. More important than love, I insist to myself firmly. The lid goes back on the coffee just like closure on the whole Mike experience.

    He doesn‘t haunt my dreams as I feared that night. Instead I am flying far across fields and woods, looking down on those below me. Suddenly I fall to the ground and it is only when I wake up that I realize I was shot by a hunter, brought down by the burden of not the bullet but the soul of the man who shot it. I realize later, with some degree of understanding, that Mike was the hunter holding me down and I am the bird that longs to fly. The next night my dream is similar to the previous nights, but without the hunter. I fly free until I meet another bird who flies with me in perfect harmony. I realize with some relief that there is a bird out there for me, there is another person, not necessarily a lover perhaps just a friend, but there is someone out there who is my soul mate. I think about being a broken vase again and realize that I have glued myself back together, what Mike has is merely a little part of my time in earth, a little understanding of my physical being. He has only, a little piece of me.

    当他告诉我他要离开的时候,我感觉自己就像花瓶裂成了碎片,跌落在茶色瓷砖地板上。他一直在说话,解释着为什么要离开,说什么这是最好的,我可以做得更好,都是他的错,与我无关。虽然这些话我已经听上好几千遍了,可每次听完都让我很受伤,或许在这样巨大的打击面前没有人能做到无动于衷。

    他走了,我尝试着继续过自己的生活。我烧开水,拿出红色杯子,看着咖啡粉末一点点地落入骨灰瓷的杯子里。这正是我自己的鲜活写照,不断地往下掉咖啡粉末,却从来没有真正地泡成一杯咖啡。

    水开了,水壶发出警报声,我假装没有听见。迈克的离去也是一样,突如其来,并且无可挽回。要知道,我宁愿忍受分与不分的煎熬,也不愿意以这样的方式被宣判“死刑”。想着想着我就哑然失笑,自己竟然为一杯咖啡有如此多的人生感怀,我自己一定是老了。

    可是镜子里回瞪着我的那个女孩还是那么年轻啊!明目皓齿,充满了前途与希望,光明的未来在向她招手。没关系的,反正我也从来没有爱过迈克。何况,生命中还有比爱更重要的东西在等待着我,我对自己坚持说。我将咖啡罐的盖子盖好,也将所有关于迈克的记忆尘封起来。

    那天晚上,出乎意料的是,他并没有入到我的梦中。在梦里,我飞过田野和森林,俯瞰着大地。突然间,我掉了下来……醒来后才发现原来自己被猎人打中了,但是令我坠落的不是他的子弹,而是他的灵魂。我后来才渐渐明白,原来迈克就是那个使我坠落的猎人,而我是那只渴望飞翔的小鸟。到了第二天晚上,我仍然做了类似的梦,但是猎人不见了,我一直在自由地飞翔,直到遇上另外一只小鸟和我比翼双飞。我开始意识到,总有那么一只鸟,那么一个人在前面等我,这个人可能是我的爱人,可能只是朋友,但一定是知我懂我的人,这令我感觉如释重负。我想起曾经觉得自己像花瓶一样裂开了,才意识到原来自己已经把自己修理好了。迈克只是我生命过程中的小小过客,他仅仅了解我的表面,他仅仅是我生命中的小小一部分。

  • Little things

    2008-04-21 10:50:36

    The days went quickly by.

     

    Today is April 21. Tomorrow is a pay day. I am a little sad at this moment. I don’t know how to express my feeling. Maybe everyone will be happy and wait for the pay day. However, I really don’t want to face that sad fact. I was too disappointed to work during that day.

     

    The day before yesterday, an incident had happened on the bus. One of my roommates’ new mobile phone was stole. In fact, she knew who the thief was. Surely, the thief didn’t admit his crime. She wanted to borrow someone’s mobile phone to call and looked for her mobile phone. Unfortunately, no one would like to lend it in order to avoid some troubles. After that, fully satisfied, the thief said, “if you insist in your point, I will speak clearly with you.” The poor girl had no idea because she was alone. Then she saw the thief got off before the bus began to move. How sad she was! I wonder if the world is becoming colder and colder……

     

    After a few days, one of my roommates will go and never come back for she has resigned. Frankly speaking, I wouldn't be parted from anyone who lives at 204. All of people are kind in my heart. We get on very well together. We often share something with everyone. We often chat and play with each other. It’s a big family full of happiness, laughter and peace. I love my family and my roommates.

  • It was raining

    2008-04-19 14:15:29

    Today is Saturday and I still work at office as usual. I didn’t know it was raining until I went out and for my lunch.

     

    In fact, I prefer sunny days to rainy days. The bad weather was getting me down. However, I’d like to stand out in the thin rain.

     

    It was said it’s go to rain heavily tomorrow. One of my roommates suggests us to play cards tomorrow. It’s not interesting to me. I don’t know that from A to Z. It’s hard to me to learn cards. I think I would just as soon read as play chess instead of cards.

     

    What can I do tomorrow? Maybe I will stay at dorm, listen my music, read my novels, go for a walk, chat with my roommates, and clean my room. Oh, tomorrow will pass like this, I think.

     

  • AAudrey Hepburn beauty tips

    2008-04-19 11:48:46

    The following was written by Audrey Hepburn, who was asked to share beauty tips.

    For attractive lips, speak words of kindness. 
    魅力的双唇,在于亲切友善的语言。 

    For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people. 
    可爱的眼睛,善于探寻别人的优点。 

    For a slim figure, share your foodwith the hungry. 
    苗条的身影,在于与饥饿的人分享你的食物。 

    For beautiful hair, let a child run his or her fingers through it once a day. 
    美丽的秀发,在于每天有孩子的手指穿过它。 

    For poise, walk with the knowledge that you never walk alone. 
    优美的姿态,来源于与知识同行而不是独行。 

    People, even more than things, have to be restored, revived, 
    reclaimed and redeemed; 
    never throw out anyone. 
    人之所以为人,是必充满精力、自我悔改、自我反省、自我成长;并非向人抱怨。 

    Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, 
    you’ll find them at the end of each of your arms. 
    As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands, 
    one for helping yourself, the other for helping others. 
    请谨记,在你需要别人帮助时,你会发现援助之手就在你的左右。 
    在年老之后,你会发现你有两只手,一只用来帮助自己,另一只用来帮助别人。 

    The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, 
    the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. 
    The beauty of a woman must be seen from in her eyes, 
    because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. 
    女人的美丽不在于她的穿着,她的身材,或者她的发型。 
    女人的美丽一定从她的眼睛中找到, 
    因为那是通往她的心灵深处的窗口,“爱”居住的地方。 

    The beauty of a woman is not in a facial mode, 
    but the true beauty in a woman is reflected inhe r soul. 
    It is the caring that she lovingly gives, the passion that she shows. 
    女人的美丽不在于外表,真正的美丽折射于一个女人的灵魂深处。在于亲切的给与和热情。 

    The beauty of a woman grows with the passing years.一个女人的美丽随着岁月而增长。
     

     

  • Mini-Biography for Audrey Hepburn

    2008-04-19 11:44:50

    Audrey Hepburn was born on May 4, 1929 in Brussels, Belgium. She really was blue-blood贵族出身from the beginning with her father, a wealthy English banker, and her mother, a Dutch baroness. After her parents divorced, Audrey went to London with her mother where she went to a private girl’s school. Later, when her mother moved back to the Netherlands, she attended private schools as well. While vacationing with her mother in Arnhem, Holland, Hitler’s army suddenly took over the town. It was here that she fell on hard times during the Nazi法西斯分子occupation. Audrey suffered from depression and malnutrition. After the liberation, Audrey went to a ballet school in London on a scholarship and later began a modeling career. As a model, she was graceful and, it seemed, she had found her niche合适的职务in life—until the film producers came calling. After being spotted modeling by a producer, she was signed to a bit part in the European film Nederlands in 7 lessen in 1948. Later, she had a speaking role in the 1951 film, Young Wives’ Tale as Eve Lester. The part still wasn’t much, so she headed to America to try her luck there

     

    Audrey gained immediate prominence in the US with her role in Roman Holiday in 1953. This film turned out to be a smashing success as she won an Oscar as Best Actress. This gained her enormous popularity and more plum roles. One of the reasons for her popularity was the fact that she was so elf like and had class. Roman Holiday was followed by another similarly wonderful performance in the 1957 classic Funny Face(1957), Sabrina in 1954, for which she received another Academy nomination, and love in the Afternoon in 1957, also garnered rave reviews. In 1959, she received yet anther nomination for her role in Nun’s Story(1959). Audrey reached the pinnacle of her career when she played Holly Golightly in the delightful film, Breakfast at Tiffany’s in1961. For this she received another nomination. One of Audrey’s most radiant roles was in the fine production of My Fair Lady, in 1964. Her co-star Rex Harrison once was asked to identify his favorite leading lady. Without hesitation, he replied, “Audrey Hepburn in MY FAIR LADY”. After a couple of other movies, she hit pay dirt and another nomination in 1967’s Wait Until Dark.

     

    By the end of the sixties, after her divorce from actor Mel Ferrer, Audrey decided to retire while she was on top. Later she married Dr. Amdrea Dotti. From time to time, she would appear on the silver screen. One film of note was Robin and Marian with Sean Connery in 1967. in 1988, Audrey became a special ambassador to the United Nations Unicef fund helping children in latin America and Africa, a position she retained until 1993. she was named to People’s magazine as one of the 50 most beautiful people in the world. Her last film was Always in 1989. Audrey Hepburn died on January 20, 1993 in Tolochnaz, Switzerland, from colon cancer. She had made a total of 31 high quality movies.

  • If the world disappears,I will love you in heaven

    2008-04-18 16:56:57

    Someone has come, someone has gone. We are still watching each other, but there was no chance to embrace again, no chance to escape...

    The distance, just like a piece of paper...

    We have missed each other,and it is impossible to meet again. Whenever I close my eyes, I fell lonely in my heart.

    The future had be belonged to us and changed my fragments of the memory to one moment.

    After your leaving, I have lived in the void. I had indulged in the internet for long time. Playing jokes and talking with stranges on the internet. When I used some special words that only could be understood by us, they can't understand our language. You name in my heart would let me feel sad at that moment. Then I turned off the computer and indulged in memory...

    Love always has very strange reasons some occasions. It just like music and feeling always tangled together. I could not feel myself from aching...and I could not also understand myself why am I still missing you. Finally, I want to take pity on myself, want to leave. I do not want to be harassed by only my memory...

    The sea wind in early summer let me fly. The blue sky, the white clouds, and the golden sandy beach....my mood was quiet. When I remembered you, I could sing lvoe songs to birds flying in the sky. When I missed you, I could to dig a small hole on the beach and tell it my missing. After leaving, I thought I could forget something about you...

    But when a friend gave me a CD, Elva's song, let my tears come out.

    "Because it is raining...because the moon is changing.Because the similar weather reminds me the feeling of when we fell in love with each other..." That song is only scent which I left in the past. The memory could not be forgotten. I knew that we were strangers, but I also knew that I loved you very deeply...

    I came back to that city. I came back to the internet. I came back to myself. only myself...

    I would like to indulge in the love and hate. Can you understand me?

    If the autumn goes away, I will love you in snow.

    If you leave me, I will love you in my tears.

    If I have to leave you, I will love you in distance.

    If you heart died, I will use all my life to love you.

    If my body died, I will love you in my heart.

    If I disappear, I will love you in the air.

    If you disappear, I will love you in my memory.

    Because it is raining

    Because the moon was changing

    Maybe it is the wind

    Maybe it is a dream...

  • My travelling plan

    2008-04-17 15:28:05

    Think it over, it is a year since I have graduate from college. During that time, I only stayed at home for one day and then I came to this city. I miss my parents because of I haven’t seen my parents for ages. I am ready to come back during the summer holiday.

     

    It’s really hot in summer at my hometown.  I think I have no idea what I can do except to visit my parents when I come back. Last night, I had a sudden whim to take a holiday with my parents. It’s a good idea, I think. However, I wonder if my parents will support my idea. Certainly, they like traveling very much. I am afraid that they don’t want to spend money for traveling. They know it’s not easy to me to save  money.

     

    As far as we know, mount Lushan is a charming summer resort. So, I’d like to visit mount Lushan with my parents this summer. At the same time, I will take off from work for a few days.

     

    I hope the scheme will be carried into action. It’s not for me but for my parents. They worked all their lives for us. Yeah, It’s time to return their love.

     

    Come on, baby!  I must save money for my travelling!

    Hold me up. Hold me tight. Lift me up to touch the sky
    Teaching me to love with heart, helping me open my mind

    I can fly. I'm proud that I can fly
    To give the best of mine till the end of the time
    Believe me I can fly. I'm proud that I can fly
    To give the best of mine. The heaven in the sky

    Can't you believe that you light up my way?
    No matter how that ease my path I'll never lose my faith

    See me fly I'm proud to fly up high
    Show you the best of mine till the end of the time
    Believe me I can fly I'm singing in the sky
    Show you the best of mine The heaven in the sky

    Nothing can stop me spread my wings so wide

    24.糟了! Shit!/ / Damn!

    153. 太夸张了! That’s an exaggeration!

    154. 死都不要(干)! Over my dead body!

    E.g. A: Whether you’re a friend or foe

    171. 表里不一。 Thinks one way

    but acts another.

    E.g. A: She’s so hypocritical. She thinks one way but acts another.

    Give me a look. (比较正式一点)

    238. 可想而知。 Goes without saying.

    Piss me off! (比较粗俗)

    240. 说来听听。 Let’s hear it.

    241. 天要亡我! I’ve got no place to go.

    Having read the letter, the father felt relieved and gave it to his daughter with a light heart. The girl also felt quite pleased after she read it carefully, her lad still had a deep love for her. Do you know why? In fact, she felt very sad when she read the letter for the first time. But she read it for a few more times and, at last, she found the key – only every other line should be read, that is the first line, the third, the fifth … and so on to the end.

    姑娘的父亲看了这封信以后,非常高兴地把信给了姑娘。姑娘看罢信也非常快乐,小伙子依然爱着她。你知道她为什么高兴吗?其实,她初读时非常忧伤,但她怎么也不相信那是他的真心话,于是她又默读了几遍,终于,她清楚了该怎样读法。只能一、三、五行如此类推,直到信的结尾。
  • I can’t take it anymore

    2008-04-16 14:31:28

    The day before yesterday, my close friend called me and asked some questions about my health.

     

    “It’s ok; I only had a slight cold.” I smiled lightly and answered. If so, I don't want her to know my illness.

     

    “Really?” she didn’t believe me and the said continually, “But why do you get sick often? Do you know how worried I was when I knew you have got cough again.”

     

    “I see.” I was so moved and compunctious that I couldn’t say any words.

     

    Frankly speaking, my condition is still serious. I have taken some medicine, but it was no use. I can’t take it anymore.

     

    I was thinking to myself, “don’t I look after myself well enough?” I believe the answer is no. Firstly, I often take exercise with my partner; Secondly, I keep an orderly diet; Thirdly, I have a good sleep; Finally, I lead a peace and comfortable life. But , my Jesus, please tell me, where have I  gone wrong?

     

    I can’t take it anymore. Today is just not my day! I hope my health will improve as soon as possible.

    Now in most Chinese families, parents and grand parents all wait on a little emperor - the only child of the family. However, there are many children lack of care and love from their parents. They have little time to meet their parents.
