When Love comes at Wrong Timing

When I was younger, I had always been confused by those romance movies that have no happy endings. For one reason, that was, I couldn't find any convictive enough reason to explain why two people who have strong affection to each other would have to end up nothing. It 's defintely unacceptable to a naive girl like me who had never been in love then. Probably because of the influence from those ideal fairytale we read when we werea kids, we tend to picture love in a perfect way and the handsome prince riding on a white horse must marry the poor little girl who has a rough life, and they will lead a happy wonderful in the castle eversince. Yeah right, that only happends in children's books or movie script, coz a happy ending like that is no where to find in the real world. As I grew older and experienced more of life in all kinds of aspects, I gradually came to realization that we just have to get used to the truth that things can haedly meet your expectation, especially when there are more people get involved. A relationship has no happy ending happends all the time, and for understanding this point, we all have to go through that cruel stage at least once until we compromise with the fact and give the acceptance. Maybe that's the reason why I am more attracted to tragic love stories, maybe it makes love even more beautiful and intense than a happy ending one although it's heartbreaking at the same time.

In a fairytale, there are magics, magics that can conquer all the difficulities and creat miracles, yet in real world without magics' catalysis, we are just powerless mortals who have either fight with the fact or yield the reality. Now I can totally understand why would two people love each other might end up to no where. There are so many factors you need to put into consideration, and timing is one of them which you can hardly keep it under control.

When you have a thing about a guy who feels the same way to you, but his status doesn't allow you to move any further, which means the timing is wrong, this is no different from getting a crappy ending, because you don't get to choice what ending you would get but be moved like a chess. What would you do when you are facing a situation like this ?Can you be rational and drop it right after you realize it might not gonna work, then move on for more possibilities? Or you would just enjoy the moment and take the risk of probably getting hurt in the end ? It's a tough call my friends!

Why Do We Need to Learn Math?

"Math", is probably the least word I like in Engligh for the only only one reason that it's boring and lifeless subject, isn't it ? My fear to math can trace back to elementary school years. When my classmates enjoyed playing Times Tables games or even made it a competition, I found myself having difficulty following up, and I felt suffocated over those numbers and figures. Unfortunately, time tables was just the beginning of all disasters, later it extended to complicated calculation queastions about buying stupid groceries. Ok,maybe my complaint comes out a little too early on those easy shopping caculating questions, but it was exactly when I realized this hideous subject will be following me as the biggest enemy until I am set free to University.
So I naively thought I am math-free the moment I step into university campus, and I could lead a happy life ever since. However, the fate is never easy to deal with, who can never predict that I will have to study statistics after six years' math-free life for my graduate school entrance exam. Why would a social worker need to caculate? Can't we just let the computers do all these, I thought that's why computers exist, no? I can never figure out the reason why would something like trigonometric function or linear function have anything to do with our real life. They neither inspire any potential in you nor bring along any benefit to my daily life, then why should I rick losing cells to study it ? Can anyone tell me ? I simply don't understand.... The worst part is, I can't complain and give it up like I used to do before, I have no time to play waywardly with this stubborn enemy, but to face it bravely for my own good, or I will be so dead in that cruel battle fighting for a spot in decent graduate schools. Math, I really hate you to guts, but I am not scared of you. Come on bring it on!! ( God please still bless me...)

What the world eats

Accidentally found a report at TIME website titled " What the world eat".
It's an interesting article that showed the diversity of eating culture from country to country all over the world, yet I found it more inspiring on the aspect which makes me realize how lucky I am to wake up everyday without worrying about if I can feed myself with sufficient food or not. Espeically the displayed food that residents weekly get in Chade caught my attention. The resource there is very limited in Afria as we all can imagine; people can barely satisfy their tummy and have to be concerned about their next meal, let along more desires for anything other than this basic need- food. Even though the living quality is mean, they all try to greet tomorrow with the biggest smile and greatest optimism, or they will not be able to beef up their will for fighting with the hunger and enviornmental deficiency. This is the reason why I am not only crazy about African culture but the attitude which Africans keep when facing the toughness. Though the purpose of this report might just want to give the readers some geographical knowledge, it does remind me to cherish more of everything that I have now, and be grateful to them.
