    有一种美德叫宽容

    年少轻狂的我们

    都习惯疾如仇

    受到一点伤害

    便觉得对方罪不可赦

    自己在理

    就认为有权利咄咄逼人

     

    直到有一天

    自己也在不经意间

    犯了错误

    自己也在无意识时

    伤害了别人

    才意识到

    犯错是那么容易

    伤害, 通常发生在意料之外

     

    何苦那么愤怒

    何必那么刻薄

    你永远也不知道

    什么时候

    你也需要他人一个谅解的微笑

     

    请记住

    有一种美德

    叫宽容

    Winter Resolution

    赶上入冬的第一天扛起荒废已久的锄头,在我这片久违的小绿地上锄锄草,就有了这篇痛改前非的WINTER RESOLUTION.
     
    说来好笑, 我一个小小的project coordinator,竟然感受到前所未有的工作压力. 都怪以前的工作把我宠坏了,从来不知道加班为何物,不知道deadline是哪根葱.记得以前有一次跟在EY工作的高人朋友聊天,我说昨天很忙,加班了,她一脸同情装:"加到几点?" "6点" - "我倒!这也叫加班?这是我们正常下班时间好不好?我们哪次加班不超过9点!" 我赶紧把脖子缩回去.
     
    这次不同了,我满腔热情加入的项目,就有了前所未有的责任感,无怨无悔的加班不说,还争取每件工作做到精益求精,高标准严要求,结果矫枉过正.2周单独工作下来,明显感觉到压力带来的副作用.这样下去不行啊,别革命还没成功,我先牺牲了.我还想为革命健康工作20年呢.痛定思痛,于是坐下来反思,哪儿出了问题,how to fix it.
     
    其实,压力都是自己给的,我们的头儿还整天张罗着怎么给我们减压呢(摊上这样体恤下属的头儿,真有受老天眷顾的感觉).Time management, 这个听过无数次,可还没机会在工作中实践的词,这次可真得现学现卖了.
     
    培养爱好,丰富业余生活!我不是机器,不可以想开就开想关就关,我需要心爱的朋友把我带出工作状态,带到另一个美好世界.而且是永远陪伴我的朋友,任何时候都available的朋友眨眼 所以,我决定开始学一种乐器,开始坚持一种运动.
     
    来悉尼将近7年了. 这本该是个色彩斑斓,丰富多彩的国际熔炉,可我却渐渐对它失去兴趣.是不是我太懒了?
     
    冬天来了,可是我这只冬眠已久的动物却要开始行动了.

    电梯里的绅士

    绅士,这个词让人联想起俊朗的身材,挺括的西装以及举手投足间流露的贵族气息.可是电梯里的绅士与这些都无关, 他只来自于一个小小的动作.

     

    片断1

    今天下班,正赶上与公司里资格最老,年龄最大的合伙人搭一个电梯,还有公司另一位女同志. 这位合伙人不善言语, 平时就很少跟他说话, 有时早上打招呼,他只爱理不理地哼一声. 6楼到1,无语. “”ground floor. 我乖乖地等着最靠门的他先行, 头儿嘛, 又年长,当然的礼节啦. 没想到他竟做了个请的手势, 还自然地把手放在电梯上以防关上. Lady first!

     

    片断2

    同一个电梯, 早上风风火火地赶到公司, 电梯前已经等了好几个女士了, 打头的是一位白发苍苍的老头儿. “”,老电梯终于摇摇晃晃地到了一楼,虽然大家都赶着到公司报道, 但当然还是让老人优先. 可这位花甲老人竟做了一个优雅的的手势, 扶住电梯, 在女士们的”thank you”声中潇洒地做了一回绅士.

     

    真的很享受这种绅士风度. 每当这个时候就觉得做女人真好. 相信每个女人都有被照顾,被宠爱,被尊重的需要. 而这种需要的满足不需要金钱, 不需要气力, 只需要一个不起眼的动作.

    悠长假期

    很久很久没有在我的这片小绿地上除草耕种了. 是心越来越麻木了?还是生活被淹没在了周而复始的忙碌中?现在终于有时间坐下来写点什么了,因为被老板半解雇了- 我由全职改为只工作三天.
     
    对于这位自责"太有人情味"的老板, 我心存感激. 他在并不是很需要我的时候留了我下来, 给了我学习和积累经验的机会; 现在, 他又给了我选择去留的权利. 是该我离开的时候了.
     
    一次又一次, 我被抛入找工作的焦虑中. 虽然很讨厌这种不安定的感觉, 但也在一次次的挣扎中学会了应对的办法. 又一次感觉到这种对于失业的恐惧像警钟一样敲醒了我的神经,提醒着我不可以松懈. 现在我还很弱小,但我要让自己变得强大起来. 要变强大, 就得通过不断的学习, 提高自己的能力,寻求新的机会.
     
    好棒呀, 现在一个星期我有四天自己的时间了,很多事情等着我去做呢.........................

    我的中国心

    我的中国心

    河山只在我梦萦
    祖国已多年未清静
    可是不管怎样也改变不了
    我的中国心
    洋装虽然穿在身
    我心依然是中国心
    我的祖先早已把我的一切
    烙上中国印
    长江长城
    黄山黄河
    在我心中重千斤
    无论何时无论何地
    心中一样清
    流在心里的血
    澎湃着中华的声音
    就算生在他乡也改变不了
    我的中国心

     

    很小的时候就开始喜欢这首歌. 当时只是喜欢张明敏字正腔圆的唱腔,对歌词实在没有太多的体会.今天在中国文艺上听到周佑君翻唱这首歌.虽然不喜欢她创新的唱法,可是不知为什么,听着听着,竟泪流满面.

     

    出国前看到过一篇报道,题目是"越出国越爱国". 回首身在异乡的这几年,当身心疲惫的时候,只有中国音乐能够给我最大的慰籍; 当痛苦得不能自拔时, 是中国古诗中的哲理让我豁然开朗;尝遍了世界各地的菜肴,才知道最好吃的还是中国菜. 也许正像歌中唱的那样"我的祖先早已把我的一切烙上中国印".

     

    当面对求学的艰辛和孤独时,我常常感到自己的脆弱.我试图寻找一种精神的力量,给自己支撑. 也许是从小没尝过穷滋味的缘故,财富提不起我多大的兴趣;天生又没有多大的野心报复,权位也不足以激发我的斗志;而我的心,又没大到要为人类消除贫困的程度.可是我发现,每次想到我的祖国,我就会充满力量.自己那些不如意也渺小得一文不值.

     

    好像有本书叫"生命不能承受之轻".没看过.但我相信生命是需要重量的.对国家和民族的责任感给了我这样的重量,让我的心不再空荡飘渺.

    Fang's Digest

    Hello, everyone, Fang’s Digest is open today. From it, you will see the abstract of films, books, articles, everything I find that is interesting. I am more than happy to see your feedback about anything you find that is interesting.

     

    Aristotle

    Today, I will tell you something about Aristotle. Aristotle is one of the greatest scientists. He is the first person who believes that the nature runs in a rational way, ruled by logical principles rather than peculiar spirits. More importantly, he believes that all of these principles can be comprehended by humans. He discovered that all creatures have features that help them adapt to the environment, which is the start of biology and zoology. Aristotle found out four elements: earth, air, fire and water. All of these elements keep changing. He also believed that there was the fifth element in the universe that is perfect and eternal. But it is proved by modern science that it is not true. Moreover, Aristotle started thinking the universe outside the earth. Although Aristotle is well known as an ancient Greek philosopher, the principles he discovered actually form the origin of politics, philosophy, psychology, ethics, biology, anthropology and even meteorology.

     

    He was born in Greece, an island where there was no centralization at that time, which allowed free mind to think about the nature of the world. He left Athens to Italy and stayed there for 12 years. He came back Greece again but finally left and died outside his country. It is said that he died from stomach disorder. Alternatively, there is a saying that he died from frustration about the reason why the water in the see changed directions 5 times a day.

    Goodbye, FitnessFirst

    I finished my last day in FitnessFirst with one unit and a triple pack sales. When I finished sales and walked out of the door, it was already 9:30pm,as late as normal. Although it is only my 7th sales for this month, I still felt a kind of fulfilling my duty. I have nothing to regret, cause I have tried my best, till the last minute.
     
    There is so much to appreciate for this two-month experience, from being given this chance by Narelle at the beginning, to being cheered up when I was so depressed. Cam, Rober, Paul, Vic, Dave, Narelle and Franki are always ready to help me when I need them. I felt so grateful when Marina drove me home because I was upset by the customer. They are so different from me, but they are all warm-hearted, live and caring.I cried so many times within these two monthes, but surprisingly, most of time, I cried because I was touched, accepted or cared.
     
    My gym dream has finished, while my career dream has just started. I am clear with what I can do and what I want to do now. I have realized that:
    1. None of the jobs is easy.
    2. As long as you keep doing something, you will become good at it, you will become   predomiment in that field one day if you keep learning.
    3. Hard working will finally bring you results either sooner or later(Franki said)
    So the conclusion is to start something with massive potential as early as possible and keep persuing it. For me, what works is to set up the goal, then persistently work on it, finally I will hit the target.
     
    Life is a trip, don't hesitate to get onto the new train which heads to a new destination. You are gonna to believe that there will be more exciting experience and more amazing sceneries in front.

    Brand new 2006

    Today is the first day of 2006. This is the first piece of my blog in the new year. It seems everything is new. I like this feeling.
     
    My blog has changed her dress into green, a lively and fresh colour. It represents spring, a season I can start everything from beginning. It is also the colour of grass. I hope I will be as strong as grass. No matter what difficulty I meet, I can still keep growing, happily.
     
    I wish everyone visiting this blog have a lively and fresh 2006, just as lovely as this green colour.
     
    Happy new year

    The most joyful Christmas in Australia until now

    We just had a wonderful Christmas party  in dear Joan's home last night.This is the first time in Australia, in festival occasion, I didn't feel lonely, I felt like really enjoying it.
     
    I didn't have much interaction with Joan before. Surprisingly, she is such a humourous and young in mind grandma.She has sharp thought, good sense of humour,and lots lots of stories.The most surprising thing is that she, a British lady, has a standard Beijing accent. She corrected Cathy's Mandarin pronunciation.
     
    Brent is a real gentleman.He is always graceful, with beautiful smile.
     
    Haha, Jimmy Jimmy,our loughing fruit. Without you, we won't have so much fun. Your South Korean accent becomes really popular now.You know what?You look like one of my cousins. He is a funny funny guy, like you.
     
    Lovely Rachel, where you are, where the music is. Thank you for the music, bringing me spiritual satisfaction and a feeling of family.
     
    Cuicui, xin ku la. You are such a responsible organizer.Everything is perfect last night. Thank you very much. Xixi, I was so touched that you worried about my safety when I went back home alone.
     
    Xiaopang, being an IH idol, we expect hear more songs from you next time. Maybe you should bring a book of lyrics with you.
     
    Arthur and Havard, I found out you were really involved when we sing 'the moon represents my heart'. Is it because......
     
    Dong, when will you continue your lecture for aeronautic theory. We just heard the introduction jet.
     
    Ray, you have to be a good DJ tonight. You can't just leave a CD there and go to drink by yourself. Understand?
     
    Lucas, seeing you swimming, I understand why Australian always won the champion in swimming. You swam like a fish.
     
     Dimitri, thank you for taking photoes for us. You are our professional photogragher.
     
    Sami, Mountain Rice, your hair is so cute.
