感动

不需要太多的话语,也不需要什么感人的话语。平淡真诚就足够了。我真的觉得我很幸运。我不会让你失望的。

家

想家，突然很想家。 没有理由，也不需要理由。想爸爸，想妈妈，想奶奶，想弟弟，想家里的一切。想回到家我可以毫无顾忌的睡到天昏地暗。那是我停靠的港湾，也许就是因为这样才想家的。很早就离开家里在外读书了，可是这只是更增添了我长长久久的对家的思念。即使回家的时候，常常和妈妈、弟弟闹别扭。可是这并没有丝毫减轻我对家的思念。虽然自认为自己蛮独立的了，但是很多时候真的还很幼稚。爸爸、妈妈希望我坚强，从小也特别信任我，我要争气。

以前想家会让我更加的努力，现在想家更多的成了依赖。倒退？！不成。

杂想

After finishing supper, I feel sleepy again. Oh, no! I can not sleep now. I have been slept for a whole afternoon. Then, what to do. Look through the web.

I read shoppings rescent posts. Yeah! I have the same problem. In fact, I realize this problem since last year especially last few weeks. Then finally I made a decision by my self. Insteasd of pursuing a PHD I'll pursuing a job. I thought that I had thought it throughly and had a stern mind. However, I find that it is not true. I am not so stern as I thought. I am curious about the new world I am going to face. And sometimes I think I can make a big change and achieve the dream.

What's my dream? A villa, a limousine, and I would to travel aroud the world enjoy the beauty of the world with my family. And at the same time, money is still come into my account. And I'd like to help my hometown to become wealthy. And may be some day after I come back from a journey I can be tutor that help people to sail for their dreams. Is it good? Too ambitious. But it is good to dream. Some time I think may be one day it will come true, and I even wondered if some friends would like to work with me may be it can be touched. But just some time, or several seconds. When come into reality, I don't know what I can do how I can come closer to my dream even though may can not even touch it. I don't know and may be I'll never know.
Lao Hong told to me that there're many things that u will never know, don't enclose yourself in it otherwise, u will become a philosopher. Let the philosophers care that. That's pretty true and to the point. Even that I can not stop to think about it, especially when I faceing difficulties.

I moved back just before the falling of my first step. There are attampting things around u. Every now and then they will come to u. This time u must be strong and stern to yourself to your heart. Keep in mind keep to your heart it cannot deceive u. We live in a relative world. 在人生的前半段不要犹豫，在人生的后半段不要后悔。

只有更慢，没有最慢

只有更慢，没有最慢。大家是这么说赛尔的网速的。现在觉得更适合说新加坡的网速，大半个小时开不了一个页面，我都快睡着了。这什么世界啊。也许是要我不要随便浏览网页吧。本来后来用了cable好很多了，可是自从台湾地震后就没有一天网络是很顺畅的。没打开一个页面都要刷新好几次，还不见的有效。唉！

生气

一时很生气, 虽然我知道我不该生她的气但还是生气了, 她的想法是可以理解的, 在她的世界里就是这样的，我不能怪她，也不应该怪她。虽说告诉自己不要理她说的，可是，做不到。每次都是这样，这次不行，我不能老是这样妥协，自己做主。我的世界应该由我做主，太顾忌周围已经束缚我够久了。这么大了，有我的判断能力，我的世界和她不同，理解她但是不能什么都顺着她。既然自认为自己的眼光比她长远。当然，只能成功，不能失败。
More......

乱

这个世界变得越来越陌生, 我无法分辨谁对谁错, 每个人都有自己的思维模式。思维模式的不同造成了每个人走的路不同。迷茫，觉得自己很幸运早这个时候认识了一群新朋友他们无私的帮助我。可是现在我有所怀疑了在他们眼里钱是最重要的，目的就是赚钱，想想觉得他们说的和他们做的不是很一致。我无法分辨，我开始害怕，虽然到目前，并没有什么对我不利的发生，他们是一直在激发我的斗志，可是感觉要把我引上一条我完全无知的道路。害怕，恐惧开始滋生。这不是我的世界，内心的斗争不断重复着，扪心自问，未知的世界我无法回答，只能告诉自己，不管做什么，选择了就不后悔。是的，很多人以他的能力都可以达到一个更高的高度可是那又如何呢？社会总是有不同的人组成才是完整的，把演好自己的角色，担负起自己的责任，正如ABC所说的。“问心无愧”这就够了。适应这个社会，适应这个环境。我不可能让世界按照我的思维来转，她不会因我也变得简单。保持自我，适应社会。

The world is flat----世界是平的

在韩总的blog上看到他在非鱼的推荐下看了《世界是平的》一书也强烈推荐，不禁在Google上一搜，还真是很快就搜到了。 不错的一个版本中英文都有，虽然中文的只是很短的主要内容，但正适合我。本想看英文的可是考虑到300多页会花掉我太多时间就先看中文的有时间再看英文的。

看了很有感触，也强烈推荐大家看看。这世界正在被铲平，如何在这个世界里立足并成就梦想？作者提出了：“企业治胜七法则”。转载一下。

成功法则一：世界被铲平，你也感受到产过来的那股力量时，请找一把铲子向自我的内在挖进去。千万别想要筑墙。
成功法则二：小应该做大。夏公司想要发展，就要学做大。关键就在快快学会怎样利用新工，参与全球竞合，把事业搞得更远、更快、更广、更深。
成功法则三：大应该做小。大公司要在抹平的世界里蓬勃发展，方式就是籍着学会让客户做大，自己则做小。
成功法则四：最好的企业将是最好的合作者。在抹平的世界中，愈来愈多的任务都必须通过企业内外的各种合作来达成，道理很简单：未来的价值创造，无论在科技、营销、生物医药，还是制造，都会变得复杂无极，绝非简单一部门或是一企业就能掌握。
成功法则五：世界抹平后的第一流公司会定期照X光来保持健康，并把结果卖给客户。
成功法则六：第一流企业外包是为了治胜，而非缩编。外包是为了更快、更便宜的创新，是为了成长，为了取得更大市场，为了请更多、专长更不同的人才，而不是为省钱而朝更多人鱿鱼。
成功法则七：把工作包去海外的，不是那些不爱自己的土地的人而已。有理想的人也在做。 今年世界舞台上最新出现的一种人，便是公益创业家。这种人通常胸怀改善社会的大志，而且相信方法如谚语所说的，给穷人一条鱼吃，不如叫他们怎么钓鱼。大汇流及世界抹平对他们来说是天上掉下来的礼物。
花了一下午把她看完了。这七点企业治胜法则我觉得也很适合个人。
世界被抹平，我们更要提升自己也不是把自己包起来；我们应该是学会分享学会共同进步。我们因该用青春创造生活，用健康享受生活。

Live with our friends ----- Toastmaster Project 2

Towards the end of December, my friends and I visited the Singapore Mandai Zoo. We sure had a wonderful day at the zoo. Frankly speaking, although I am fearful of many of the animals, I like them very much. After all, they are our friends.

It was around noon when we arrived at the zoo since we usually got up late in the morning during the holidays. After a quick lunch we started our trip around the zoo. There were many kinds of animals that I had not seen before, such as the polar bears, penguins, raccoons, giraffe, white rhinoceros, and elephants. I rarely freed my hand from pressing the camera. The Fragile Forest was our first stop. I found the raccoons in it. They were sitting on the tree combing their hair cozily and paid no attention to the focus of cameras. But sometimes they may stare at you curiously just like babies.

Later, we went to watch the elephant show. Elephants are the biggest animals on land today. True enough, I saw how strong they were at the show. They could lift heavy logs of wood easily using their trunks. Therefore, their long trunks come in handy and they play an important role in helping people to carry things from one place to another. Elephants have been our friends for a long time.

Polar bears are what you should visit in the zoo. / In my opinion, polar bears are the highlight of the zoo. The Singapore Zoo has two polar bears at present, the mother polar bear, Sheeba, who is 29 years old and her son, Inuka who just turned 16 on December 26. In fact, Inuka was the first polar bear born in the Singapore Zoo and the tropics. Both mother and son are so lovely whether they are walking, diving, clapping and waving to you. As we all know, it is native to the Arctic. It is well-adapted to its habitat: its thick blubber and fur insulate it against the cold and its translucent fur (which appears white or cream-coloured) camouflages it from its prey. The polar bear hunts well on land, ice, as well as in the water. I found that their fur is not as white as it should be. I think it is because of the differences in its Singapore enclosure as compared to its natural habitat even though the bears have an air-conditioned den and misting fans. Given Singapore’s hot and humid weather all year round, they must be uncomfortable despite being able to survive at temperatures of up to 35 centigrade. As such, the Singapore zoo has decided to move Inuka to a zoo in a temperate climate after Sheeba’s death so that the environment would fit him better.

It is unfortunate that the earth is getting hotter and this poses a threat to the animals living in the Artic region. While average worldwide temperatures have risen 0.6 degree Celsius (one degree Fahrenheit) over the past century, the colder regions like the Arctic have warmed up to a far greater extent. We know that the human activities contribute to global warming. Greenhouses gases – consisting of carbon dioxide, water vapour, methane and nitrous oxide trap heat in the atmosphere and cause climate change. The primary cause is indisputable -combustion of fossil fuels for factories, homes and cars. Deforestation is the second largest cause of global warming.

The Arctic is home to arctic animals like whales, walruses, seals, music oxen and polar bears. Global warming has resulted in these animals being in direct danger due to the melting of ice throughout the Arctic. The melting of ice will particularly impact polar bears and ringed seals as they spend substantial time living and feeding on the ice. We humans have the responsibility to make a change and save them before they disappear from the Arctic.

Animals are our friends. We human beings can not live in the world alone. The world is active with all kinds of beautiful and unique animals. Let’s live with our friends.

PS: This is not my original draft. A friend edited it for me.

认定了我不后悔！

All in my mind these days are which way to go? Why? What I expect from it? What I want? How can I achieve it? Is the desire strong enough to the extend that I would to give up some to support it?

This evening I met Wanyi. She help me to find what I really want and to what extend I want it. She asked me a lot questions which are very relate to me and put me into deep thinking. I am now much clearer about what I want but still balancing what I would like to give up. How I can jump out of the 'Rat Race'? Questions to be answered.

I am always lucky to have a lot of friends to help me. I am lucky to know so many friends here. They help me without reasons and don't leave things behind. Thank you my friends!

No matter what the future will be I won;t regret what I have decided. Adapt to changes. Anticipate changes. Keep change. Be bold! The fear is not so bad as you have imaged.

Cheers!

自己做主

This is the first time that I make the decision by myself. Amazing! But that is the truth. In my past twenty years I don't really have to make a decision by myself. Life is going in its way. My parents my teachers help me to make the decision most of the times and things seem always turn out to be not bad to me.

It is time that I have to grow up and make a decision by myself. At first, I try to escape from it. Because I let the God to make a decision for me again. After thinking for days and talking to friends and families. I finally come out the answer. I won't pursue a PHD immediately after finishing my graduate study. That's very hard to me. Because I used to change my mind. This time I can not change again. As a rational person, base on the knowledge I have, the best way to go is to go to industry and to face a new world to me.

Last night, I have decided it. But I don't feel good today because I still thinking about switching the choice. Now, I can take an oath that I have firmly make up my mind. It do call for a lot of courage. Now I feel relax. However, there're a lot of things to do. I have to get down do prepare myself for the job I would like to pursue. In fact, I have to figure out what kind of job I'd like to do.

Bless myself!

Make up My Mind!

I have made up my mind to go to work after finishing my graduate study. I SMS to my younger brother about the issue. A line from him help me finally set up my mind, 'If there aren't anything you'd like to study right now it may be better go to work first and go back to school when you find sth really like to learn.'

This suits me very well right now. I find that I have gradually losing the passion of studying the stuff that was asked for. And become more interest in learning sth that have more to do with the industry. The reason that I wondering whether to go on pursuing my PHD is probably that I don't like to give up the possibility right now. But it doesn't seem to do me good. I am not sure. But if instead of going to industry I continue to pursuing the PHD immediately after my graduation, my life will probably end up in the school. Think it over, I would to go the industry to open another door.

In hindsight, I am not sure whether it is the better. In foresight, it should be.

Wondering

I always wonder what I am going to do in the future. But never come out with a clear answer. At this time I tend to talk with someone friends or parents. I should say that what they had said are reasonable. But they all end with that you should decide it by yourself. That's definitely true.

I am curious about new things but out of interest in it very soon. Does it mean that I am losing the passion, or, put it in another way, I don't have persistent passion now. That may be not true. May be the truth is that I have decided it but just don't realise it or don't like to accept it. It must be deep in my mind.

有时觉得自己很坚强，可是越来越觉得自己也还是很脆弱的。患得患失。在一个牛人多如牛毛的环境中，觉得自己越来越渺小，渐渐的形成一层隔离的自我保护膜。就这样的吧，可是其实自己真的也不差啦。在这种社会是不是需要些自恋来提升自信。

Fear

Fear. Don't you ever fear about sth? I don't know how to make a choice or more exactly, I don't like to make a choice. When I sit alone and let my mind wandering everywhere, I was thinking what life will be in the future. But I never think it over, usually stop in awhile. I feel I was fear about sth but I don't know what it is. May be that is the uncertainty about the future. Definitely, I want to live a better life. But what is better? What utility I will benefit from it? The tradeoff between benefits and costs? May be I have learn too much economics and go too far. Haha... That can not be the case. More reasonally is that I don't fully understand it.

Oh, I cannot figure out what I have written.

Rich or Poor?

I just finished a book by Robert T. Kiyosaki. I think you can guess what book I have read. Right, 'Rich Dad, Poor Dad'. I think you may probably have read that book because it a so well-sold book. I have browsed part of it in my undergraduate. But I didn't have the interest to finish it then. In my mind, it is nothing to do with me. I didn't have money to invest and I won't have my own business. I can not do it well. I am not suit to own a business. It may be a mistake that I go to the business school. I fear to talk to strangers and have no idea what to say and how to communicate with strangers. And I am luck I major in Financial Management not Human Resourse Management or Business Management. Yeah! Now I still feel lucky that I have learned some Financial Management, at least I know the framework though never go to the deep up to now.

So, what should I do? Financial freedom, I like it. I think everyone like it. But how can we achieve it. Robert T. Kiyosaki has shared his experience with us and shown some ways. Now I think is the time to take a step to set up your objective. What kind of lifestyle you like? How you can get to that? ......

Someone benefit from the book and become sucessful and is on the way to financial freedom, someone never start to take an action and still in the rat race. So, which group I would like to be? Have I set up a plan? The answers are clear.

I don't have a clear idea. There must be some changes that's what I am sure. I would like to learn some investment stragies at stock market and probably start to practice this year.

Work smarter not work harder.

New

The setting og Google Bolgger is quite different from MSN Space. It is new to me. I think it will take some before I can use it fluently.

It is the new semester through no class this week. I realise that I really have to get down to my thesis but just not in mind. During last year, I always ask myself what I want to be in the future. I feel that deep in my mind I tend to stay in academic world but I don't have the self-confidence that I can do well in it. And I don't know whether it is worth to spend another 4 years just to get a PHD. It is too long to me. Another point I concern is that what I can do if I can not stay at the University after I get a PHD. May be I concern too much. May be.

The day before yesterday, I went out with some friends in Singapore and played the Cash Flow Games. After that, I chated with them. I should say that many of them are excellent. They are not much older than me but they have their own business and gather a lot of money. That is they're on their way to Financial Freedom. When coming back at night I was thinking to go to industry and sailing for my Financial Freedom.

Then, I feel like the balance is on the other side.
