Open my own business


You will never know what is going to happen in the next moment. It is hard to get a job in Taiwan now, so it becomes the perfect timing to open a business. These days I accomplished two important issues. First, I made a difficult decision to sell out my lovely car. It was not "her" fault, it was mine. "She" realized my dreams about traveling around Taiwan, and it was also the interesting place to warm up my romance ever. However, I have no more chances to hang out with her, and also no more extra money to take care for her. Oh! I miss you so much~. Second, that idea was born yesterday morning while I was exhausted to look for my inexistent job. I was wondering why I didn't take my friends' advices to open a restaurant or a breakfast store. I have a little money and I love cooking, but I would not like to take care for a "space" whole year, whole month or even whole day long. Therefore, I decided to have a company, which I can make my dreams come true via. Well, it is still a dream, as a fetus in mom's uterus. I don't wanna lose it. I am glad that the amazing idea came out of my mind finally. Although it is late a little bit, later better than never. =)

Where is the English version?


This is the second Chinese novel I have read after I came back from Canada. Well, mother language is still the best choice to finish a novel as fast as I want. Every time it is so difficult for me to stop finishing whole books if I made a beginning. This novel is wrote by Paulo Coelho, an effective writer in Latin America, who was born in Brazil. This novel which talks about religion is very interesting. Oh! The name of this book is A BRUXA de PORTOBELLO. I don't know what the language of this name, but the most important issue was happened in that street, St. Portobello. I am not tend to make an outline or a skeleton for that long story. In fact, what made me impressed is that more than half of opinions in this novel are just match my original ideas. I have thought about these strange rules, customs, and thoughts in our society. Although the main idea of the story is about the girl, Athena, who claims the God is the Mother of Land, instead of Jesus who Christians praise and admire since long long time ago. There are so many samples show out that all acknowledge and behaviors which are not normal or unacceptable in the society, and the people with these "unusual" or "irregular" ideas will be attached labels, such as witches or even evil. However, they are just different from regular people. Moreover, when more and more citizens tend to believe in this "evil" religion, Christians starts to defend their historical faith, the only God in the world is Jesus and others are threaten. Whatever, all chapters in the novel are endeavoring to reveal some interesting but lack of logic phenomenons in our society and then discuss them in special events. That breaks the rules in my world for a while; however, the acts of brainwash are existing in every moment. It is not easy to think about something in an irregular or opposite way with confidence. At the same time, I wonder if all the ideas in my mind are correct or just disciplined?

A wonderful daydream


Well, that's true. If the God closes a window, he/she will open anothe one or more. When all Brian's plans got stuck, new ideas just ran out of his brain automatically. That day, he was reading some articles from Time magazines because he loves English so much. Coincidentally, there was a wise elder, sitting on the opposite seat to his, who sank into that piles of newspapers. Around 1 hour passed, the elder finished that huge task by browsing through those newspapers effectively, and he started reading some magazines which were published in English. Brian looked at him with surprised expression. An old man who looked like fifty-five years old probably was doing what Brian used to do for more than 10 years. The scene gave Brian a shock badly. "Will that be my future?" Brian asked himself sadly. "Does he love English too? Is he retired now? What is he going to do after he finish these magazines again? He probably spent all his time in the library before, and maybe he is going to do this ritual until he dies." Well, that was no answer. Maybe Brian was right, but it could be wrong. However, that truth was horrible, and it made Brian scared badly. The plan Brian made has to be expanded in the future. He wants to be useful in the future. What will he be lately? Maybe a teacher, an instructor, or a professor? We will see.
