New Car, New Job, New Life!

yeah, i have just got my own car for the very first time!!!
it's a Honda, Civic, may not be a fancy car as u expect, but it is already good enough for someone as me now. It is in black color, i was thinking to get a milk white one, but black works for me too. Anyway, i feel lucky to own my first car, moreover, it's a brand new one.
well, my parents gave the down payment. Obviously, the money i got in my account is not gonna help a shit. But i have already known that I will pay back them the down payment they gave today. Dont worry, ill get them to take the money.
yeah, new car, but keep in mind that im not buying this car for going parties, driving around. I am buying for my job, my new job. it is an investment, i have invested over 18,000 even before i make any pennies so far. Well, actually, i have made $12 with it by delivering a chinese order. Sweet! But still, i wanna remind myself again, I got a job, a car is a start of it, from the very first second i started it, i have to keep working on it, till the end, at least till the day i pay off the loan i got for the car. Well, i dnt wanna be a damn loser, who wants to be loser anyway, I have said so many times that i will try my best, but i just wanna say it one more time, I will try my best to do a good job, for the sake of my car this time. I am not giving myself hard time by getting a new car, but this is the way it is. I mean i actually like this way, this is what i ask for, a own car, a own job, oh, and the college. I wanna be a business woman, and i believe this is just a start. I know i wanna do this. Tell u a little secret, my parents actually found a guy for me a while ago, to be honest with you, this guy was not bad at all, he is not so bad looking, a nice and kind young guy. most of all, he runs his own construction team,(not sure if it is right expression) other words, he makes pretty much money, at least more than the money my parents make. But the only problem is, there is just no electricity running on between us. He is only high school graduated, no offense, but it somehow affects, he joins the real society pretty early, that may be the reason he looks a little older than his real age. oh, he is only a year older than me. Anyway, my parents just highly expect him to be my bf and later on husband. I know they are right on some points, but i just cant imagine myself kissing him, or anything a couple supposed to do. The feeling when i with him is just not right, u know. Maybe i will have a happy marriage with him later on, but this is just not the thing i am looking for now. Sorry, mom, i just cant take it now. I believe you already knew that i told him what i really thought the other day. hehe,,we will all get over it.
back to my job, i like my job, i know it's still too early to say so, ill will try, at least give a try, a hard try...

I love this Reading Class!

After days of research and put materials together, I finally got my final project done just minutes ago. hoooh,,,, (sigh of relief)
I know what i want to do in my later on life, but this project just gave a great chance to organize what had been floating in my mind. I have a much clearer mind now. I am more aware of what is in front of me. I have a better idea on what and how I need to do to get my BAIB (Business Administration-International Business) degree in four years properly. I know what career area I am getting into after four years college.
Posting blog is always the best part of this class. I am that kind of person who feels more comfortable to post my thought on blogs rather than expressing my opinions in class publicly. I 100 percent support keep using "blog post" as a tool for the students to participate in class and for the teacher to communicate with students. It is the best idea I have ever seen! I will definitely keep using this blogger to share my own thoughts with the public. Im lovin it! ^0^

Random Family!

"They wanted to leave the familiar world behind, but no one knew the direction out."
this is the sentence impresses me the most through out the whole book. It is like i just suck in a gray dirty smoke, which stays inside my chest and drives me hard to breathe in and out. I am trying to scream out....
It seems like everyone lives in Bronx neighbordhood has a miserable life, women sleep with different guys and have a bounch of children; guys jump in and out of drugs and some illegle isuues, which eventually bring them into jail; kids grow up with poverty, drug, complicated family background, est. Everyone suffers, sights, pains.
They need a way out, but Where? Education is seen as a way out of the ghetto. To try to improve the chances for her children, Coco follows the well-worn trail of many welfare recipients to the dying upstate industrial city of Troy, where there is more public housing and a somewhat safer street life. Despite her courage to disengage from her Bronx world and pursue her GED, Coco is ill-equipped to handle the challenge. In this case, education could hardly help out those adults, what about their kids? These kids are just so influenced by their family, the community they live in. If we want them to be completely rinsed by education, which is seen a way to take them out of the dropping world, we have to isolate them all from their family and the community they live in. But this is impossible as ask all guys go have a job in Bronx.
Abviously, education is not the one can solve all the problems they meet in Bronx.
They all a need a way out, but how? We are all thinking about it...

Anna Nicole

Never really heard about her before she died. (Shrug)
part of the reason for me to pay attention on her exploded news is to catch up with others. Sounds like I would be considered as a donkey if i reacted like I never knew "Anna Nicole" has just died at age 39. Ah,, I may be a little exaggerated, but it is ture, at least from what i had experienced.
back to the topic, why would people be interested in pop stars private lives? enn,,,, I think that part of because we are jealous,, we are jealous about what kind of fancy lives they have, looking back to our lives,, ewwww,,, so when there is a scandal or anything bad happened to those fancy stars, we would be like, "hmm,, those stars are no better than someone live in our block". This somehow releases the unbalance jealousy inside our bodies. Believe or not, bad news from those pop stars always spread times faster than good news.
you may not agree, but think about it in another way. Look at those people who never talk about or care about the pop stars, they dont care because they spend more time on some other stuff which they think have something more important to do with their lives. They know what they really need to focus on to make their own lives better. This is what we call "mind your own business."
"yeah, Nicole died, so?"
"So her daughter becomes a orphan.
" So? you are not gonna adopt her, are you? nd you are not gonna inherite Nicole's millions of dollars, are you? then what the earth her death has anything to do with you?"

ah-ha,, no offense by any meaning, im just being a little freak.

The president of US

A president of US should be wise, honest, responsible, thoughtful, experienced, knows what is really good for US people, and the people in other countries. Take Mrs. Cliton and Mr. Obama as examples, they seem like both have got all the quantities I am looking for in a president, at least by the lectures they gave. People don't just pick up a random person from their neighbordhood as the next President of the United States. Hundred millions of people live in US, only a couple of us stand up as the candidates of next presidents, those couple of us gotta be outstanding enough for the rest of us recgonize them within such a big country. So I am concluding these two candidates are both qualified for the next President of America. But if i have to pick one of them as president for the next term. I will choose Mr. Obama. (I have changed mind from yesterday, thanks god, the election was not on yesterday) Not because he is any better than Mrs. Cliton in any qualities as a president, it is his African-American born.
It is true that there is only one president up there leading America, Mr. Obama may not be as experienced as Mrs. Cliton, whose husband was the ex-president of the United States, but the president gets his whole administration behind him, who knows there is no somebody else steps in the running of presidency, the president of America is not running our country alone. In this case, the tiny difference between the capability of these two candidates does not affect my decition much. I am choosing Mr. Obama, because he is a African-American. I know the United States is not ready for an African-American president, mainly due to the racism widely exists in this society, even though a lot of people claim they are not racists. Being one of the minor race group in America, I really dont think it is fair to reject a talented person as the president of the United States only because his African-American born. I will vote for Mr. Obama for the sake of his excellent leadership and minor-race born.

Little Red Cap!

Do not talk to strangers! This is what I got from both the old Grimm version and the new Carter version of "Little Red Cap". In spite of different writing styles, different story plots, different endings, the old and new versions of "Little Red Cap" teach us the same lesson--be careful of wolves! Obviously, wolves here represent those unkind people who are harmful for us. I think the reason for both versions are widely accepted by us is because each of the version has its certain amount of readers. The old Grimm is more suitable for kids. It is more acceptable to teach kids a lesson with a positive happy ending. The Carter version is more realistic for those adults or more grown-up people. Moreover, the change of time is also a main reason for why Carter version is more reasonable and more real for us. However, these two versions differ from each other in scenes and ending, the aim of the writers are the same.

"American Idol"
Honestly, I have not watched "American Idol" show on TV before, not even once. I knew it, because the commercial explode out on TV, through radio, always the hottest issue during my friends' conversation, there is no way to ignore its exsitence afterall. I am not a big fan of "American Idol", but I do know how this show goes, since I have watched some similar shows. I concluded two reasons for no need to change from "vote for the best" to "vote for the worst".
First of all, not many people will feel like spending time and money to vote for the one they dont like, at least I won't text time after time to vote for the losers, the only posibility is someone really gets on my nerve, his /her appearance really threats my daily life, I would destroy my cell phone only for letting him/her out of the show. Fortunately, this kind ofsituation does not happen oftenly, plus i might just choose not to continue watching the show, which seems like the best way to save from this unnecessary cost.
The second reason sort of relies on the first one, if we all significantly reduce texting times, or less and less people watch the show, the holder of this show will not be happy, their benefit would relatively decrease, which is against what their purpose of holding this show. Thus, they will try every effort to make the audience spend money on those fancy performers as much as they can, rather than let audiences vote for either losers or winners freely.

The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time

Just by seeing the name of this book, I surpposed it would be a "detective book".
There was one question kept coming up to me, "Is this novel really written by a mental-ill teenage?" If it is not, the author must be a genious.
I had never read any novel or fiction written in this way. It is narritive, which is common; it uses many pictures, numbers, graphs, which are not common; it tells so many things, most of which seem have nothing to do with the "death of the dog", which is really uncommon; the extreme characterist of "Christopher" indeed challenge my ajudgment, "he is either Einstein kind of genious or a high-mental-ill kid.All of these elements provoke my curiosty, attract me keep reading it till figuring out what the earth in Christopher's mind.
The reason I reject this book is not written by a real mental-ill person is I don't think any publisher will risk to publish a book written by a mental-ill child as Chrisopher. If it really was, the teacher would not recommand it as a school text book. Then whoever wrote this book must be a genious. Only a genious can make the readers forget everything around when they are reading his book.
