Time is so less, life is so short

Everyday I live in rush .
I need to catch up the works.
I need to fight with English at home.
Thought time is so less, life is so short.

Want to stop thinking anymore, just enjoying a good film.
It is better to watch all films that I’ve had.
I know it is a fantasy, and believe that never become the truth.

Has many different ways to learn English, but my way is just studied from film.
In spite of brain and hands are so tired, I still not see any achievement by now.
I really want to stop it, then live in a normal life.
No longer fantasying.
No longer dreaming.

Impossible to make me to be those sort of human-being.
I will not give it up, although gossip is a fearing thing,
You never get success without hard work.
I found contentment in process whether I can get the success in the end.

時間的少，生命的短

每日活在競賽中，
在辦公室跟工作競賽，
回家要跟英文競賽，
從未如此發覺時間的少，生命的短。

很想好好忘卻一切，狠狠看一回好電影，
最好把家裡珍藏一次過看完，
但這只是幻想，而幻想是沒法變為事實。

學英文有多種方法，我採取的絶對是電影學習法。
耕耘未見成效但見其累，腦細胞和手筋都太累了，
累得真想不再努力了，做過隨隨便便的人，
不要有奢望，不要有夢想。

這跟本不可能，我不是這種人。
盡管最近「人言可畏」，但我不會因為別人閒言幾句就輕言放棄。
為達目標，不計付出。
即使結果未知如何，但見過程中的點點累積，已感心滿意足。

What you are, what you do

I did many works today. When I came home from work, I felt like a dog – tired.
Even so tired, I still went to see a flat where is located in three lamps section.

The flat on the 5th floor, which around 500 feet with two bed rooms. The living room is very small. We can’t see any view inside the flat, just only see some neighbors’s windows and parvis (An enclosed courtyard or space at the entrance to a building).

It costs $ 370,000. Both Mr. Chang and I thought this is a acceptable price. I don’t like I don’t know why I still not satisfied with it, although it is very cheaper. Maybe I don’t want to live in a dark hole in my future life. I just want to have a house that full of sunshine. This is a very important condition to let me consider if buy a house.

When I left the building, I felt very up-sad. What for? At that moment, I was thinking about “ why I don’t have enough money to buy a new flat with big size?” Oh, My situation is so bad. Money, money , where can I get you?

That is nonsense and hopeless if I always thinking about it. I believe What you are and what you do. From the beginning, I’m not the one who catches up the money all the time ( In this sentence, should I use past tense or present tense?). I read books day and day and dream of becoming an author not a businesswoman, so up-to -now still is a poor woman. Certainly, many authors in the world are very rich. Why they can achieve their dream and get success( In this sentence, should I use past tense or present tense?). The important thing is that they are always keeping writing.

So I must keep writing. I am expecting someday to be an author. But now, I ought to improve my English first.

The man without a past

“The man without a past” 　yesterday was showed in Cut Association which is a black and white movie. The movie was made by Aki Kaurismaki who is a Finland director.
“The man without a past” is the story of an assault victim who is badly beaten that he lose his money. After the accident, “M”(Actor’s name) became homelessness and without a past.
The movie so gloomy and filled with lots of back humor., but it’s so laconic too. Therefore, we have never seen any flowery in its. Kaurismaki ‘d like to use still shots or middle shots while two actors in a dialogue. Thought this movie without a good story, it would be slight bored.

“The Graduate” My Favorite Movie

“The Graduate” is one of my favorite movie of my private movie collection . I saw it many times before. I always remember Ben (Acting by Dustin Hoffman) how hopeless in it.

Although Ben was a good student in the movie, but we couldn’t see any hope in his eyes. When he graduated from university , he didn’t want to do anything .I never forget Ben’s eyes which filled of sense of frustration even he was how prefect.

The movie was a society problem movie. In 60s, many American felt no hope and didn’t trust the tradition. They wanted to change something but powerless．

I remember dialogues between Ben and his father. Ben’s father asked Ben what happened to him, Ben replied that he just worried about the future. And then the father said, what about it? Ben answered, he want to be different.

That is a point! Everyone wants to be different. Ben not only wanted to be different but also to change his life. The funny thing was he loved with an old woman. I think that maybe the special to him.

The first reason why I like this film is the story , another is the montage. You will be shocked by it.

Photo-taking

Today I went to take photo with Mr.Chang at the Guia Hill. It is his first time to use the D200 so I became the model in his photos.

Attached photo was use 1/250 shutter, f4(aperture) so you can see that I was freezing in it.
Since the weather was cloudy, we tried to increase the aperture but the effect wasn’t still perfect.

Mr.Chang had took over 100 pieces ,eventually, he was satisfied with 1 pieces. He said, was too difficulty to take a good photo, he will think more before to press the shutter-release button next time.

We had a great time today. I look forward to take part in the photograph tour during 13-16 April.
