7/3/2009 New DesignI have changed Live Profile to a simple link on the blog, because the whole profile box does not go well with the genral style of this blog. Also I have updated my guest map link.
So now I am pretty satisfied with the current design with a pain color and a simple layout which can satisfy different internet speed to view this blog. Of course it's aesthetically satifatory to me as well. Now it's also more mature and more informative. I have thought enough about this, and it's good now. My New WatchI have bought this Citizen watch for some time, because I thought it could bring me luck. But unfortunately, I was being superstitious, and this idea made me quite dependant and dumb. So my lesson were learned and all I need to say is you are the only one whom you can depend on eventually.
It was quite dramatic yesterday, because we had the craziest shower this summer in Shanghai . The wind was so strong that people could barely walk. But it came fast and went away faster, leaving pools and ponds on the road everywhere after I had my second golf game and dinner. It was cool to play golf, although I heard golf players average IQ is the lowest in all the sports games players, with football players the highest IQ. How ironic is that! It must be a joke. It’s like a big slap on the face, thanks to our professional National male football players. The dinner was nice and we had good conversations on the table. I am glad that I joined the team building with other team members in the last minute . Sometimes there would be really a surprise if you do something different. As long as I still feel young, I would be willing to be surprised and entertained.
6/30/2009 Got McDonalds Toys?I know it's not healthy to have McDonalds often, but it's undeniably convenient to make a phone call and your food is just outside your door. Also another reason why I order McDonalds instead of others is because I can get little toys. Although I don't really know what I am going to do with these toys, I think it's fun to be surprised sometimes. I am sure when I have a clean kitchen to cook, I won't order junk food any more. But so far, so much fun.
6/29/2009 D10 Power Shot In French ConcessionSince I am not happy about the result on 25th, I decided to do something about it. First I went shopping by myself on Saturday to buy the shoes I always wanted and some other spontaneous gadgets I encountered. Then I bought Canon D10 Power Shot on Sunday, and I walked through French Concession to take pictures. Although it was very hot and humid on Sunday, I thought it was great to walk a little bit and I feel good now. I am happy about my decisions and things have sunk in gradually in the end. The reason why I wanted a D10 was because first it looks cute; second it’s 10 meters water proof, which means I can take pictures when I swim in the water! I know it sounds lame, but it’s definitely something new to me.
So I took my D10, along with a new Canon bag(:D), to see old houses in French Concession again. The minute I walked out of the mall, I realized I made a mistake, because it was so hot that it was suffocating me. I did not walk through this whole area literally, but somehow I took several pictures.
So I am pretty much satisfied with this new camera except that the lens just has a transparent glass cover to protect its vulnerability, and it requires cleaning frequently. But thanks to its rugged design, I can wash it with water. 6/26/2009 Transformers 2 VS Terminator SalvationAfter I watched Transformers 1, I thought it would be a really long time before we could see Transformers 2. But I forgot the fact that time flies!! There are more fight scenes in Transformers 2 and if you think you cannot get enough those fighting machines in Transformers 1, then Transformers 2 can possibly satisfy your needs on this. The only thing I don’t like is Megatron’s look has been changed dramatically. Megatron is nothing different from a monster. Although he is a bad guy, yet he has a better look in the cartoons. Optimus Prime and Bumblebee are ok, because they still have the original colors, and Optimus Prime still has the symbol of those two big windows on his chest. It’s definitely a cool action movie, and there are lots of high tech scenes, without which I guess maybe Egyptians might go nuts to see their national treasures are being tortured like that. There are some interesting scenes like Sam acting like a psycho in his astrology class, as well as the little Decepticons being captured by Sam’s girlfriend. It was a good movie, and it’s worth my 80RMB.
As for Termination Salvation, I was a little bit disappointedly speechless in the end after having stepped out of the theatre. It was just ok, sadly, but I don’t know where this feeling comes from. There are great scenes like men fighting versus Skynet, but overall it makes me feel that John is stupid and does not have a right intuition for Marcus. And human race appears to be so weak and silly compared with machines. I did not see much hope in the film, which should have been emphasized more, I suppose. So the overall tone is quite gloomy and depressing. Plus I did not see any humorous scenes at all. I like watching movies in theatres and having a bowl of popcorns, but I have encountered some people with bad behaviors in the theatre: talking crazily loud, kicking your chair occasionally like they do not notice or answering cellphones. I know I am not entitled to judge others or teach them things that are supposed to be taught by their moms, but as a citizen and a human being, we do deserve a fine environment without being disturbed too much by others. I think after these two movies, there might not be any great big action movies this summer, but I am actually expecting more good dramas or comedies this summer. We will see. |
