Time flew

A backward glance upon the very beginning of this semester reveals that time flew. By the end of next week, we will have finished all the class. It's just amazing and inconceivable. It seems like the first day of this semester is just yesterday. I was struggling myself when I faced a hard assignment; I removed the barriers to learning in front of me build by myself since my careless; I also perceived multicultural knowledge customs while I talk with my intelligent classmates.
It was entirely not easy as I thought before and extremely fantastic as expect before. Now it is time to say goodbye to some of my friends and instructors. I will miss you guys and thank you.
May you a happy future and good luck to myself.

the distance


don’t know why I like water so much. I like drinking water. I like the sea. I like any places with water. So I doubt whether I was a fish or not in my previous generation.Our school is just located on the sea side, which makes me feel comfortable. Whenever I get the free time, I’d like to go to the sea shore, sometimes with my friends while most of the time just by myself. I like sitting on the sand quietly and listening to the songs sang by the sea.
One of my friends used to ask me whether I had ever observed what the sea looked like on a clear day. I didn’t answer him directly then. But he told me that as far as we could see, the sea and the sky joined together and formed a beautiful arc at the end of our sight. They seemed to be together in the end. While as a matter of fact, there was still a far distance between them, like poles apart. They can’t be together, never ever. I felt so sorry when heard this, because I knew he was giving me some hint about our relationship. I didn’t know what to say about this. I just said that: “Didn’t you tend to get a bit too sentimental? It meant nothing at all but a natural phenomenon.” Sometimes I don’t like my way of dealing with things, especially about emotion. I always choose to run away from the eyes, the love and anything else. Why I always choose to run away? Like reading a novel, we cannot change the sad ending, but we can choose not to begin.

If Winter comes, can Spring be far behind?

"If Winter comes, can Spring be far behind?" said by Percy Bysshe Shelley, which encourage people got in quandary.

For a long time I was depressed by studying English. Because my careless and inadvisability, I caught in a big trouble in studying process. I complained, regretted, and went downhill. For some reason I told myself I can not always force into regret showing sympathy to myself instead of bestirring. I had to pass it so that I make hard effort on studying 10 times harder than before with the hope to redeem the mistake I have made. Our capacity to cope successfully with life's challenges far outstrips our capacity to feel nervousness

Holding onto regret is like dragging the weight of the past with us everywhere we go. It drains our energy, leaving less available for life in the present because we are constantly feeding an old issue. When you take steps to eliminate the fear, you can more fully enjoy the excitement. Though you may find it difficult to avoid getting worked up, your awareness of the forces acting on your feelings will help you return to your center

We should live in this world when we love it.

To People Love Life and Peace, Truth and Justice

As a Canadian residents, we love this peaceful and beautiful, free and democratic country. As immigrant from China, We also love our hometown and motherland. The riot recently happened in Tibet China and responses around world arouse our attention. We are here to express our serious concerns and worries, and to show our sympathy. We protest against those violence, crimes and acts of terrorism, untrue and misleading news coverage, double standard and prejudice.
Here one we Would like to point or some facts that should know about Tibet and Lhasa riot:
Fact one,what happened in Lhasa and other place in China were not peaceful protests. A variety of information sources confirmed this is an organized horrible violence.
Fact two, it is obvious that major Western Medias didn't give a fair and impartial news reporting after the riot happened. China Central Television has broad casted first hand video clips, and there are also some picture and video clips in Internet taken by Western tourists in Lhasa. But most Western Medias didn't adopt those sources in those sources in their news reports. Instead, some Medias cut or even attached with wrong videos and picture, mad fake new reports, added misleading comments. This is completely contrary to their ideal and principle of neutrality and fairness. Why Chinese government didn't permit foreign journalists enter Tibet ? Wearing a colored glosses on the eyes, always focusing on military and soldiers, blinding all of other facts. Don't forget U.S Gov't restricted news reporting from Iraq after truth was broad casted. We were gratified to see that after the truth has been confirmed with evidence, some Medias apologized and corrected errors.
Fact Three: China is also a country ruled by law. No state government in the world can tolerate such violence occurred in the streets: burring fire and robbing shops, attacking government authorities, even killing civilians! So why blame Chinese Gov't arrest criminals?
Fact four: most importantly, Tibet was a part of China's territory in the most time of past 800years, even longer than the history of USA and Canada. All the countries in the world accept it within 100 years. You can find proof in many places.
Fact Five: before 1959, Tibet was a Brutal serf society under the feudal theocratic regime, controlled bu masters and noblemen.Dalai Lama was sitting on the top of that theocracy society. There was no human rights in old Tibet.
Fact Six: China is also multi culture nation with diversity. The 56ethnics are united ad one China; Tibetan is a member of the family.Just like in Canada, but people in Canada are from other countries; people in China have been lining there more than thousands years. Majority Chinese people including 5 million Tibetan love and enjoy peace. The recent violent crime committed in Tibet was organized bu a small amount of mobs that tried to separate Tibet from China.
Fact Seven: 2008 is a historic year of China Olympic game will be held in Beijing. Chinese government is doing their best to make this global sport event successful and remarkable! All Chinese people are supporting Beijing2008; and as the host, welcome friends from all over the world. We strongly oppose to the boycott of the Olympic Games, oppose to thePiliticizantion of the Olympics.

Arduous application process.

Since I came here, I have known everything I have depend on myself, but the truth is harder than I thought. Like the PR card still didn't come, like They always delay my T4. Among those Applying University is the most arduous thing which almost draw me mad. In spite filling the application form is a tough, the following things are more complicated than I thought. At first I went to office many many times for asking information. After 2 month's' "struggle," I got the official transcription and guarantee(here I have to omit 1,000 words) successfully. But blackboard still didn't update, I worried continually. Anyway the first I thought I could put my heard into chest, the next day I heard I have to do references and resume. Oh my godlish! I never did that even heard that before. I am confused many things now. The most annoying thing is that I am not sure if I can pass EAP2. That's a big problem. If not, thus, I have to not only wait one more year but also do all those again!!!!

I feel so sad, so depress.

team work and individual work

Sometimes we find ourselves involved in a dilemma whether to work with a group of people on a team or to work independently. To some people’s mind, working independently is superior arguing that working on a team will waste a lot of time. But from others’ point of view, it is quite the other way. They believe that a team will provide considerable knowledge and experience which is conducive to problem solving. In my opinion, working with a group of people is better. One of the primary reasons is that working on a team, one can gather abundant knowledge and experience, which will help him or her see a problem from different angles and . By this way, he or she can think up more comprehensive solution. For instance, when a student is required to write a dissertation on a special topic, he is inclined to view a subject just from his own experience. However, if he discusses the topic with several other students, he must gather more information and understand how diverse the responses are to the same problem among different people. Consequently, an objective, comprehensive and unique dissertation will be completed.A further reason is that the overall efficiency as well as the effectiveness could improve when one work with a group of people. A good case in the point is that when a person plans to sell a product, he or she may choose to sell it herself or with others. Obviously, it is hard to achieve a satisfying accomplishment when working alone. On the contrary, if he or she teams up with other people, each member can be assigned a small amount of tasks, which can save a lot of time and lead to high efficiency.The third reason why I prefer to work with a group of people is that one can be supported, encouraged and inspired by team members when he is upset and frustrated a tough assignment. However, it is very easy for him to give up the task when he works alone.From the analyses above, we can easily draw the conclusion that working with a group of people will be definitely more beneficial than working alone. The considerable knowledge and experience, the improvement on efficiency and effectiveness, and the support and encouragement from team members will indisputably contribute to perfect performance.
