It seems like every driving journey is an adventure to me. There is always something shocking on the road. I don’t know why, I’m thinking crushing something just a matter of times…hope I can survive…God bless me.

When something turn to be less fun, I want to forgive it. Like spanish……I learn it for fun, the exam and homework killed the fun of learning spanish.
The journalism writing is not really fun as I expected. Even worse than basic English class. But I can earn stupid credits from it, I persist.
I like the creative non-fiction class, I chose a good book to do my bookclub assignmnet. “Assembling my father, A memoir” by Anna cypra Oliver, I stayed in my room for whole day reading about it today. But I don’t like to share my feeling about the book to others. Reading is something private to me, I don’t feel comfortable to share every thought of mine with others. And the homework made the book less fun again. I hope to read it without a deadline.
The photojournalism class is fun, it shifted to digital when I feel tired about developing the film in the darkroom. Good timing. I think I will still use the darkroom in the later time, but not for homework. I hate the uncertainty about the black and white process and the film. Little mistakes are going to ruin my homework. But it always happen to me, a careless person.
I don’t want to responsible for anything in my exchange period. It’s not because I’m a irresponsible person, but the opposite one. I always try my best to fulfill my duty. It’s stressful. And the exchange life shouldn’t be stressful. I don’t care about the acadamic result, again, the only thing I care is whether the things is fun to me. Fun and not troublesome is the best!
Even when I’m playing TV games, I love Winning eleven or Age of Empires. Some games that finish in one round, no RPG, no GTA, something fast and complete, no long time duty of finishing the whole game.
I hate the winter, I hope to drive by myself and go wherever I want to go.

I didn’t fall into sleep in the musical. The experiment shown that if there is music and people are moving on the stage, I will be wake and keep watching what’s going on on the stage.
I’ve only watched 2 musical in my life including this one. The content of Ragtime is much better than Rent, to be honest, Rent is basically empty, or even somehow ridiculous to me. Though I love the say of “Live for today”, but I dun really like the life of people in the musical.
Ragtime is about American dream in the early American history, someone got it, someone lost it because of prejudice. Ah…I’m not really sure about what I ‘ve got,(My english…..but I tried.) but it seem to be more realistic, and go deeper in the life of early Americans.
The darksides of American dream, I ‘d already think the American dream emphasized in the Washington is too idealistic to a extent too much to me. And this musical revealed it. Dream is dream, it’s not 100% happen. Someone can get the dream like the movie inventer in it, but he’s the lucky one.
And lucky people are always the minority. Pieces and pieces life of people combined the whole story, I do enjoy watching the American history. The U.S government love to American dream to package the unfairness of capitalism in the early period, and people were hypnotized at that time. Maybe the new hope to a new place drive them to a illusion.
My parents & the immigrants to China in 196X-7X may also had the illusion about Hong Kong is full of opportunity to get rich. And the truth is again, the only one is the extremely rare one call Li Ka Shing, and the others woke up from the dream. How come “my dad is not Li Ka Shing?” everyone in Hong Kong have the same question. I’m the son of my father, I’m just a poor student.
It’s funny to see my friend doing air-work on the stage, and the cutie skirt.
Good show!
I’m trying to type my winter journey. Sorry, it’s in Chinese…It save more time to me, and it seem I can only go deep in Chinese. Or I ‘m tried from the English non-fiction writing homework about one of my Italy night; I did it last week. Ah…I hope I can do it well in both language one day.
