Horrible English

I just read Encomium de Helen by Gorgias. I really wanna express that it is horrible!!!
I read it loudly for the first time, which I completely couldn't get the meaning, but just had the feeling of what it's saying. And then I read sentence by sentence, checked the dictionary, analyzed the sentence structure, trying to understand it one by one. For the third time, I read it again to make the logical connection between each sentence, still I think I just understand 80% of the article. 
I have long time no this kind of feeling of reading an English article. Last time it was my preparation for the reading part in SAT. Every time reading this kind of article, the process is kind of toil, however, after really understand it, what left is a sense of achievement. 
Anyway I'm proud of myself that I didn't give up. ╮( ̄▽ ̄")╭

Hardest Thing

        As I grow older, gradually realize doing one thing repeatedly, living life everyday as the same can be the hardest thing for a person, and the biggest obstacle we have to over come on our road of pursuit. Sometimes when people want to achieve something, they need to isolate themselves from group, and doing the same thing again and again day by day. A peaceful heart, and no wanders is so important this time.
       The world is full of temptation, confusing people what they really need, and want. Success doesn't mean money, reputation - any of those momentary things we can't control, but a person can lead the kind of life he wants.
      In my 20s, I hope I can figure out what I really want, no hesitation on the way of fight, and finally have a life without regrets.

puss in boots

I watched this movie with my friends this weekend. Puss is sooooo cute, especially his splendid eyes. Dream Works' animation is always good with its high quality, music, and creative story. I love this movie.

The Little Prince

This is my favorite book. Highly recommended to all of you guys.
It uses the simplest language to tell the story, but unveil the profound observation about life and humanity.
The Little Prince is so cute and makes me feel warm. I wanna smile but also cry when I read it.
I appreciate him like appreciating the beauty in the world.

“I thought that I was rich, with a flower that was unique in all the world; and all I had was a common rose. ” - The Little Prince

Girl Friends




Thanks to 3 lovely girls. In the age of 20, I wore my first make-up, high heels, fragrance, and knew the meaning of beauty to a women. We hang out, joke loudly, shop for fun. At this moment, I really understand the meaning of friends, and the fun they bring to us cannot be replaced. Best wishes to them.

Asian Retaurant

I spent my 20th birthday in DoMo, a Japanese restaurant in Muncie. It was a great experience. The service was great, and the sushi was the best I've ever had in Muncie.The most especial thing was their hibachi table. The chef presented the food like a show. He sliced the onion and piled it up into mountain, then lit it up like a volcano. The food on the grill smells always delicious.
Another restaurant I recommend to have Asian food was The Journey. It's one hour and half driving from here. It's 20 bucks per person, but the food there is worthy the money.

Sherlock

 
I was watching Sherlock this spring break. It's a very exciting and interesting drama. 
And a great way to learn English.
