    奢侈品 我不明白为什么这么多纽约人买奢侈品。虽然很多人作不喜欢的工作,他们省钱省的这么小,从来不能退出工作。我老婆在大金融公司工作,很多那里的员工真的爱花钱。她有一个同事,积蓄一点都没有。她和她老公的薪水特别高,但是她把薪水都用买奢侈品。上个月她买了一个LV 钱包。现在她的钱包的价值比他们的积蓄多。她觉得我是坏人因为我不把所有的薪水都给我老婆花。我不能相信一般的中国夫妻作这样。反正我很高兴我老婆不喜欢费钱。因为我们不浪费,要是我们以后生孩子,我老婆可以离开公司也我们的前还能够,但是她同事从来不能离开公司。

    别的地球~ 这个周末我去看我妈妈和她老公。他们住在波士顿的郊区。那个是我长大的地方,但是每次回来我觉得不就是别的地方,是别的地球。房子都很大,路上没有人。出去的时候他们就开车去。饭馆,超市也很大。虽然这样的地方很安静,住在那里很不可思议。生活很费。夏天我妈妈开空调,把她的大房子都作很冷。去买东西,她上车,开空调,开5公里,买东西,再开5公里回家。我妈妈和她老公在家作工作,但是大多数的那里住的人去40公里左右到公司。每天他们等在堵车的大道,车里费1-2个小时,也费油。全天他们在车里,办公室里,然后家里。除了周末,他们不去户外。 我真的觉得是别的地球的社会。

    The trip to ChangSha

    I travelled to ChangSha for a educationschool the last few days. ChangSha is a very prosperous and beautiful city, especially in entertainment. The weather is hot and wet, so the people eat a lot of capsicums peppers to get rid of the moisture. Maybe because I growgrew up in a samll small village in Guangdong, I don't really like the tall bulidings and nightlife. So it's so boring at night for me, I just watching TV in the hotel. I like to eat ate a little spicy food, but my body did not adapting. The last day, I went to the Orange Island. The weather was so hot to make it made me wetty and faint. I almost fell down. Fortunately I found something to eat to make me feel better. The feeling was so very bad. I even had little time to visit. Anyway, ChangSha did not impressing me. What I really favorite My favorite thing is the fresh lotus (莲子). If I can could eat them everyday, that's I would be very happy.

    I originally tried to learn Chinese with version 2, and it was HORRIBLE. Here are some reasons. 1. They teach you the same set of words and sentences in every language, ignoring any cultural differences. So you'll learn the Chinese for a lot of common words in western cultures - like "fork" and "orange juice" for example, which are rarely used in China - and you will not learn many common Chinese words such as "chopsticks" and "dragon." 2. They don't teach you any grammar. This may work in Spanish where they show you a pic of an elephant and say "un elefante", but it does not work with Chinese where they show you "一头象". Seeing this, I concluded that 一 means "an" and 头象 means "elephant" but this is wrong, 头 is a "measure word" and 象 is elephant. There is no explanation of this in the program. 3. They show you a picture and you have to guess what means, and the meaning is not always clear. In one case, they show a guy on a bull and say a sentence, then they show a guy on a skateboard and show the same sentence. So I was confused - what does this sentence mean? A guy riding a bull or a guy riding a skateboard? I looked it up in a dictionary - it mean a guy *falling*. From the picture it wasn't clear that he was falling off the skateboard and the bull, it just looked like he was riding them. I could go on, but the bottom line is this company has one product that they just translate into a bunch of different languages and then sell at a ridiculous price. They have no business doing that. Use ChinesePod, or Pimsleur, or heck just about anything else.

    Swimming story

    In the morning of July 4th 1952, there was a big fog near the seacoast of the California. There was an island next to the coast. A forty-three woman was preparing to swim from the island to the California coast, and her name was Luox.
    That morning, the fog was very thick. She was frozen by the seawater, and she could not feel the temperature. She almost could not see the boat which was used to protect her. Hours passed; tens of thousands of people were watching her on TV. Sometimes, big fish tried to approach her and was shot away by her protector. Fifteen hours later, she was either tired or cold and almost lost feeling. She knew she could not swim again, and asked for pulling her to be pulled to the boat. Her mother and her coach were in the other boat. They both told her that she was much closer to the bank and asked her not to give up. However, there was nothing except for fog when she looked forward.
    The place was only half of a mile distance from the bank. She said later that letting her what caused her to give in was neither tired nor cold, that it was she could not see the goal. It was the only time that she did not hold out until the last end in her life.
    Comment: this story tells that the goal should be eyeablevisible, and should be effective、active, and can help people get what they want.
    I think the right goal is that staff jump and can get. When staffs think that if they work hard and then finish the goal, they will get reward, that is a good goal, but if the goal is too high or not very clear, the staffs may lose direction and cannot finish the goal.

    结婚的错误 最近有两个我认识的中国人结婚了很快。一个是根他的老婆先见面了两个月以后就对她求婚了。另外个人在微博上写了他要找一个老婆;一个女人回答了。他们网上聊天了,然后过了两个月她从南京来了纽约,跟他结婚了。第一个人已经要离婚。他们有很多钱,不过一直在吵。那个女人从来不付钱,所以她老公都付。而且她常常坐飞机去别的地方,没根她老公说他想去哪里。我完全不理解这样的人。他们为什么要结婚这么快?结婚是生活最重要的决定,但是看起来他们觉得不太严重。那两个男人很聪明。他们是清华大学毕业的工程师,现在在优秀的公司工作。不过和女人的交往他们很笨。

    中文的语法 我觉得中文的语法特别复杂。什么都有规则。英文比较有自由。比如,用中文我得说“昨天我买了一本书”,不过用英文我也可以说 “我买了一本书昨天”。语法完全不一样。如果我想说一句话,我先必须把句子全都决定。长句子的话,这件事很不便,比如这句话:“明天下班了以后我想跟朋友吃饭”。用英文是 “我想吃饭跟朋友明天以后上班”。什么都有区别!所以说中文一直让我很困。
