I am big big girl, in a big big world......
  • 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。
