Blog 4: Do You Believe Love Will Last Forever?

The first time I listened to the song "I will always love you" performed by Whitney Huston, I was still a primary school student. At that time, I was attracted by the melody as well as the voice of the singer. Last Saturday I heard it being performed in the Esplanade concert hall, however, this time my feeling was a little bit complicated. And I can't help asking: Do you believe love will last forever?

In our daily life, seeing so many people falling in love but at last breaking apart, I sometimes will doubt the sense of security of love. In the movie series Harry Potter, Snape fell in love with Harry's mother Lily since their childhood.His love continues even after Lily got married. The part that moved me most was his recall of the past. His love towards Lily never changed. At last when Dembledor asked him:" So you still love Lily?" He answered:" Yes, always." Seeing this scene, I was so touched that I couldn't help bursting into tears. This is just a story of a novel, could an affection like this exist in real life? 

According to the scientific research. The affection between a couple physically could only lasts for 1.5 to 2 years. That is to say, after this period of time, the relationship is mainly supported by a sense of responsibility as well as a habit of being together. But do remember, we can gradually get rid of a habit. The sense of responsibility may also disappear one day. So don't say I will love you forever so easily. The promises will only reflect the fragility of love. At the beginning of the movie "Titanic", Rose was telling her love story as a grandma with some children. She was so in love with Jack during the time on Titanic; Jack even died in front of her. But she still got married after being survived. I don't mean that we can only love one person throughout the whole life. What I mean is that everything is changing all the time. Love is really fragile. 

There is a line in the song "Before  the Storm" preformed by Miley Cyrus and Jonas Brothers--"It's the memory that lasts." Tomorrow cannot be predicted;past is the past. So the only thing we can do is to take every effort to value today. Word hard and play hard, love crazily so that there will be no regrets in our memory.

Although forever is so hard to achieve, I'm still willing to believe. There is a sentence:" It used to be there, so it will always be there." Memory will last forever.

Blog 3: I Miss You

Dear September:
 Last night I had a dream about going back to our Junior middle schoool, the middle school attached to Jilin University. In the dream, I was on my way to school in my father's car as if I were several years ago. I was very happy because I could see you and all our friends. But when I arrived, the school was actually empty. At that moment I suddenly had a feeling of extreme empty. The emotion was so strong that I couldn't help crying. Later on I was woke up by my tears. It was at that time that I realized I haven't seen you for three months and I miss you so much.
 Everything has been so well since I came Singapore. I met a lot of new people. We shared a lot of very happy moments but I still cannot make sure whether they are friends. If they are my real friends, then why I still feel really lonely sometimes? Late nights when I surfed the Internet，I saw many pictures of our school. I miss the small restaurants around, the playground, even the toilet where we used to practice singing. I still remember that time when we were performing a song of Coco Li, we sang it hand in hand from beginning to the end.Hey do you know a line of the song Fearless performed by Taylor Swift?--"You took my hand and drag my headfirst fearless."You gave me the courage to sing the song in front of so many people.
 To me, friends are not only mean to share happy moments together, but also means supporting as well as caring for each other no matter what happens.
 We both had a special preference for crying.Do you remember we were lying on the playground missing Ms Li, our Chinese teacher who was replaced for being pregnant, with tears all over our face. Some of our classmates was quite confused seeing us crying so hard at that time. I guess no one else could have more sensitive soul than us and maybe that's why we always feeling safe being together.We are so similar to each other.
 Just now I was reading our common dairy books for our 3rd Grade in junior middle school. All our tiny feelings for those days were kept in these books. And I found a sentence I like a lot now--"If someone could help forget your past, then he must be your future."
 Once you said to me that when we are old enough to live alone, we must buy a house next to each other. Our husbands will become good friends; if our children are of the different sex, they will fall in love and get married one day. The day when we are too old to die, our graves will be put closely next to each other.All the people will see that we are the best friends.
 Now we are both working really hard to build our economic base. We are sure to enjoy a life like that one day~!
 Finally, wish you a really good night and I miss you.





                                                                  Yours sincerely,
                                                                          Dashaxu.

My Preference in Music

I have been crazy about music since I was a little girl. I can still remember when I was about five years old; every time I heard some beautiful melody I cannot help dancing for joy. As I get older, my love for music grows so strong that it has been the most one that I depend on especially when I feel down.

I appreciate a wide variety of music and styles. Therefore, there are many singers I admire. For example, I am fond of songs of Yoga Lin who has a unique and superb singing voice, and is called psychedelic prince by people. Eason Chen is also an excellent singer because what he sings can always elicit my deep emotion and reaction. I also care for the band Mayday because of their warm-blooded spirits which can inspire me to break through all the gloom and stride ahead.

Among all of those excellent singers, Jay Chou is my favorite artist who is extraordinary significant for me. He is a talented musician, a nice piano player, as well as a gifted composer. Listening to his songs for over ten years, now every time I listen to his songs I will still feel moved. Not only the beautiful melody inspires me, but it is the past experiences and emotion that the songs remind me of that touch me.

For me, songs are like my diary. I love listening to them with nostalgia for a past age. Reminded of all those old experiences, I will never forget my initial dream.

blog 4: More Information About Xi Murong

This thusday I have introduce something about Xi Murong but after class some of my classmates asked me more about her especially her poems. Thus now I will introduce more about her.What I want to stess is her achievement in the area of poem.Most of her poems are about love and hometown. Her poems can catch the hearts of girls so much that nearly all the young girls have the poem anthology of hers. Now I will translate some of her poems with the help of the Internet to let you know more about her. I will also tell you her which I have talked in the class
A blooming tree
How can I render you rencounter me
At the very moment of my prime time
I have been entreating the Buddha for 500 years for the sake of it
begging the Buddha to bridge us with a worldly tie
Thereby, the Buddha grows me into a tree
Standing beside the footpath you walk along regularly
In the sun
Are ardently but discreetly blooming blossoms
Any of which is the anticipation of my preexistence
When approaching
Do listen earnestly
The vibrating leaves
are my passion for awaiting
When you are ultimately getting by without the slightest attention
Those scattering all over the group
My dear friend
are not petals
But my fading heart.

Youth
All endings have been written
All tears have been on the way
Suddenly the beginning was forgotten
In the past old summer day
No matter how hard I trace my mind
Young you passing like a cloud and wind
Fuzzy seems your smiling face
Slowly fades in eve mount haze
Then I open the book to flyleaf yellow
Only to find the fate binds it so hollow
In tears at the book again and again I look
I have to admit youth is too hasty a book.

Regretless Youth
If you fall in love
when you are young
please - be kind to her
no matter how long or short
you share your hearts
If your feelings
may continue
then every moment
will be peerless perfection
If you must leave
still bid her fond farewell
and be thankful in your heart
for the memories she left you
When you are older
you will realize
at the instant when you suddenly
recall those moments
that
a youth without resentment
is without any regret
just like the aged moon
gracing the hills with
quiet clarity

All above are some of the poems of Xi Murong's
I think you must like her after reading her poems

Blog4:Sports is a good recipe

    Two weeks ago, I hurt one finger of mine when I played basketball. At that time, I wanted to steal the ball from an opponent’s hands but my action was so rude, as the result, my finger became the victim. The next day, with a heavy sore, I with my friends went boating in a reservoir at Clementy and held our first party since we knew each other. Of course, the scenery there was really beautiful and we paddled the boat with songs happily. Afterwards, since we wanted to catch up with Junji and Wang Yu for water fight, therefore, I paddled at a high speed, consequently, I broke my left hand unfortunately. In the next two weeks, it is impossible for me to play basketball because the sore. As we know, if you changed you custom for a while, you will feel uncomfortable both in mental and physical. I had not done sports for fifteen days until today. Albeit very tired after a five-hour lesson, I decided to play basketball and I did. At the beginning, my left hand was still very sore when I drabbled. But I did not care and carried on playing because there was nothing was happier than running and jumping on the court. Unconsciously, we had played for two hour and I found my hand was not sore anymore and got well. After that, I felt bright from my head to toe. Sports did refresh me. OK, I can begin my study in the next days with a high spirit. Thank you, basketball

Blog4 Tastes and Preferences

A lot of people enjoy reading, but their preferences and tastes differ widely. The way we think of our preferences is appearing much more significant in our daily life. Therefore, we should take it seriously in some aspects.

If my friends and I sit together to watch TV, some of us turn the channel to sports program, so we have to put up with the fact that the rest of us would not take fun in watching sports. In order to maintain a harmonious atmosphere, we are required to show our respects to each other’s preferences.

We should note that in some cases people show no interest in some kinds of things, because they have little knowledge in them. Thinking the mentioned example in the last paragraph, if we introduce basketball games to my friends who are not familiar with it in details, some of them may begin to fix their eyes on this exciting game.

In addition, our preferences are not just preferences themselves; they also reflect our future potential in a certain aspects. Maybe if we can try to analyze our preferences in a scientific way, we will know what kind of occupation is fit for us. Hence, we will have a good time in the office rather than complain about how boring the job is all day. To go further, if a boy shows his great preference in football, perhaps his parents should help him to get in a football training school. Maybe one day he will become an outstanding football player.

In conclusion, not only should we respect others’ preferences, but also we need to think deeper in our personal choice. Miracles may come out from our preferences if we pay enough attention to them.
 

Blog 4: Cycle and I

There is a saying that ‘Life is based on sport’ and I like sport. When I was three years old I began to ride a tricycle and at the age of 4 I learn how to ride a bicycle.  From then on, bicycle became one of the most important parts in my life. I love cycling because it feels like fly. I began to go to school by bike from grade three in primary school. Till now I have ever had four bikes and the last one is Giant, a Mountain bike. In my 10s, my father ever rode with me to my grandmother’s home, nearly 20 km away from mine. When I’m in high school, it takes me about 10 minutes every day to cover 2.2 km, as I measured accurately, from home to school. Cycling is also an enjoyment for me. I ride along the river feeling the fresh air and viewing green plants. One time I covered 36 km to get to my friends home. I feel great except for pain in my butt. Also in a hot noon with strong sunlight, I covered 40 km without having lunch. In my memory, I have ever felt angry and went for a ride to release myself, for it makes me happy. Bike is my best friends. I love cycling. I love sports.
