blog:. love myself more

Monday, September 21st, 2009

For a long time, I haven’t come here, writing about my life. To the busy life and complex relationship with Mo, it seem there are many things to talk. But I don’t what to talk first, to all theses. I like someone, like the experience I liked Hai. I feel scared about this feeling. I hate liking someone like now. Mo told me he wouldn’t treat me like before, for that he want to own his career. He will suffer a lot in this course. Moreover, he will put as much time as to his work. He haven’t called me for more than two weeks. I don’t know what I should think about this. I feel helpless.
I am always busy everyday. To gain the better quality of my life, I should put more time to my work, my own life. Maybe what I can control is my own life except Mo.

blog:Study links sense of humor, survival

Monday, September 21st, 2009

Laugh and the world laughs with you. Even better, you might live longer, a Norwegian researcher reports.
Adults who have a sense of humor outlive those who don’t find life funny, and the survival edge is particularly large for people with cancer, says Sven Svebak of the medical school at Norwegian University of Science and Technology.
He released his study of about 54,000 Norwegians, tracked for seven years, at the American Psychosomatic Society meeting here.
At the start, patients filled out questionnaires on how easily they found humor in real-life situations and how important a humorous perspective was.
The greater a role humor played in their lives, the greater their chances of surviving the seven years, Svebak says. Adults who scored in the top one-quarter for humor appreciation were 35% more likely to be alive than those in the bottom quarter, he says.
In a subgroup of 2,015 who had a cancer diagnosis at the start, a great sense of humor cut someone’s chances of death by about 70% compared with adults with a poor sense of humor, Svebak says.

blog:Elyse Ribbons

Monday, September 21st, 2009

Beijing has found its theatrical voice in Elyse Ribbons, who’s been writing drama since high school. “It’s such a rush seeing my plays interact with the audience” she says. Comedy is her genre, as it gives her the chance to “bring joy to myself and to others.” But the comedic world isn’t always welcoming to women, Ribbons says, due to misconceptions that men naturally possess greater comedic skill. As a woman, Ribbons feels that she is better able to understand her characters’ varying perspectives. Advice for aspiring playwrights? Ribbons says, “Leave some space for the actors’ improvisation. You ll find a lot of good creative energy.” Dramaturge

blog:Dad Should be Honest

Sunday, September 20th, 2009

Honesty is our traditional virtue. As a child, my parents always place emphasis on the truth. Now, I frequently ask my little son to do this. but today, I am greatly embarrassed .
After his class, my lovely son feels very bored, so he is eager to play a game on my electric dictionary which is very expensive . My naughty son knows that it contains a great deal of interesting games. In order to avoid him, I usually keep it in my bag with precious things and am unwilling to give it to him. So I lied that it had been left in my office. After a while, my cute son took it by himself from my study room and said to me :’Dad , it is here. why you are lying to me? Dad should be honest. you are my role model and I learn from you .’ Suddenly , My head went blank, I did not to know what to say for a long time.
‘Dad,what’s wrong with you ? why are you silent.’ he said, tapping me on the back of my hand.
‘I didn’t remember that’, I said as a flush creeping up my neck.

blog: Starting a new life

Sunday, September 20th, 2009

After a term’s life spent in the high school, I felt tired, really tired. It seems that there comes lots of unexpected obstacles stuck on my way of everything I do, making me frustrated and tortured,both physically and mentally, on study and emotion.
There finally came the new term. It was kind of unbelievable to me that I have already been in this school for half a year which is counted as one sixth of the total high school life. I thought it is going to be hard to get my orignally free life back, because growth is growth, something human are never able to choose. However, it just struck me as being much easier than I thought it would be to get everything back. I guess this is the power of aspiration and dream. There is a mysterious force governing me always, leading me directly to the ultimate aim of mine.
I am able to forget everything unhappy things happily and get rid of all the childish thoughts that tortured me for so long.
Yes, this is growth.
Let the new life create a new stage on which I shall be even more shining and sparkling.

blog: Jharkhand traders protest law against hoarding

Thursday, August 27th, 2009

Traders in Jharkhand, accused of hoarding essential food grain, say they need time to reduce their stock. “We are ready to cooperate with the state government. We should be given time to reduce our stocks up to prescribed quota. The government should suggest what to do with the surplus quota,” Anchal Kinger, president of the Federation of Jharkhand Chamber of Commerce and Industries (FJCCI), told reporters Monday.

Last week, government officials had raided several shops in Ranchi where food grain and pulses had been allegedly hoarded, and arrested one trader and lodged complaints against five more.

Ranchi district administration officials said they seized 809 quintals of pulses and around 100 quintals of peanuts among other hoarded things.

The government, which has declared the entire state drought-hit, Aug 18 issued a notification fixing the stock limits for wholesale traders in a bid to curb the rising prices of food grain. As per the notification, a trader cannot stock more than 1,000 quintals of rice.

Similarly, it has fixed quotas for wheat, flour, pulses and edible oils.

Three days after issuing the stock limit order, government officials started raiding hoarders
