The Rocky Mountains

Before I came to Canada, I had known that there is a great mountain across the North America from my geography class. Its name is Rocky Mountains. I also heard that it’s the barrier of the west North America and very important to the region. However, I just learned it in the map and I never saw it. In my imagination, it is the long, high and huge mountain. When I was in the plane from Vancouver to Calgary, I saw a series of ranges under the plane. It is a broad range of mountains because most of scene in my fly was the mountains. They are also high as the snow still on the mountains. I was aware I was passing the Rocky Mountains, but I though it just so-so. After I arrived in Calgary, I saw the great mountains in single hill again. They are so near the city. Calgary just lies on the foot of the mountains. Off course, they are pretty beautiful and spectacular. What the great mountains! I don’t know how I can describe my thinking of the time I saw the mountains. It’s totally different from watching from the plan. I hop I can have chance to go the mountains, face to face, to see how spectacular it is. Before that, I think I can take a look at it everyday when I am waiting for my bus.

Music

I like listening to music. I like different kinds of music. But I am not professional in music; I just listen to them shallowly. I have no idea that which kind of music is my most favorites. Rock, pop, electronic, …and the ones I don't know their names. I had tried to understand the classical music to make me like a high class man in a time, but I found I prefer to rock music than classical music at last. I pay less attention on the lyric of songs. I mostly enjoy the rhythm except I really like the song and want to know what it's talking about. I also have no idol; I usually don't know who is the singer of the song I am listening is. Certainly, I always don't know what kind of music I am listening. What music I want just depends on my will, may be my emotion. I believe music has a special magic. Music can may me feel happy, help me refresh; sometimes music make me to image the nice thing, give me the positive feeling and give the hope; it also can leave me in sadness and crazy.Wow, I don't know what I am talking about, just like the music in my brain. Extremely massy, just know what I want now, but have no plan for the next.

Silent world

It's snow again last night. But I think it's not heavy because there just a thin snow on the ground. I got up early this morning do the straggly things and the crazy homework. When I went out and waiting for the bus, there's little snow following, I couldn't see any car and people passing in the street. It's so quiet and I couldn't hear anything. Before I came here, I had lived in Guangzhou for a year. Guangzhou is a big city in China. It’s a different city with Calgary. Guangzhou has great population and busy traffic. You can see people whenever and wherever. It's like a busy working machine. Never stop, never calm, full with energy. It's hard to find any peace in Guangzhou. Contrarily, Calgary is a peaceful city. It's an energy city, but not an engine. The life styles in these two cities are totally different. In Calgary, Most people work in daytime and back home in the evening, then stay at home for their whole night. In Guangzhou, night is much more colorful. We usually go out to shopping, watch movies and meet our friends at night. We prefer to go out for relax than stay at home. People in Guangzhou especially like to eat and have tea outside in late night. They call is “Late-night tea”. The shops never close until 11pm. The streets are full with people at night. Now I am experiencing the different life style in Calgary, time will tell me which style I prefer.

Diablo

I want to talk about a PC game whose name is Diablo. The game was produced by Blizzard. Blizzard is a game company that had made many popular games such as Starcraft, Diablo and Warcraft. Diablo is the first ARPG game - Action Role Playing Game in the world. When the game first promote to public, all the game fans of world were shocked by it. Beautiful image and excellent system design. It also allowed to play the game online with different others. It’s a really crazy game. The most important is that I made many friends through the game. I remember my first time to play the game was about 6 years ago. I just begin my university life at that time and didn’t know my classmate well. One day, I pass one of my classmate’s room and saw him was playing an interesting game. I stop to watch and ask him how to play. I known it called Diablo, and after that, we always played together in our leisure time. Slowly, others classmate joined with us and we became closed friends. Sometimes we made a big group to play online. Sometime we played until the midnight. It’s a really interesting time. Whenever I see the game again, I miss the funny time so much as I miss my friends.

no title

I cleaned the snow out of my house today. There isn't too much snow left on the ground because it's sunshine in the past several days. I think the weather in Calgary is changeful. You may see the gray sky in the morning, but it comes to sunshine quickly. When you are walking in streets and think you would have a good weather today, there may be a heavy rain coming soon. After all, it's good for me that I still have good weather now. My aunt always said I was lucky because there is still no heavy snow in Calgary until now. She said in the past, it had snowed for more than a month. I don't know how the real winter like in Calgary, I also can't imagine what the scene will like when the heavy snow fall, because there's no snow in my hometown; I never been in a place in such high latitude as Calgary. Though I never seen snow before I came to here, I am not thirst for the snow weather. May be I'm not romantic at all, but I really don't like to walk in thick snow alone in blizzard. So I think I am lucky for the late come snow as my aunt said. I have plenty time to adapt the frosty weather step by step.

Its name is Gundam

I like Gundam. Gundam is the name of a Japanese cartoon series. In the cartoon, Gundam is the general name of the best fighter-machines with good design and high functional. However, The stories of Gundam are not talk about the robots. They mostly relate to the soldiers who drive the machine, the war, and the people who involved in it. Unlike some cartoons have obvious opinion about virtuous and vicious, there's no right and wrong in Gundam. The stories of Gundam focus on the relationship between human being and wars. Even thought the cartoon makers describe wars, they oppose wars. They believe, in wars, there are no victor and justice but sadness and harm. I like Gundam not only because of the stories of them, but also the Gundam model. Since my childhood, I was like making model. Model plane, tank, ship, car…Gundam is my favorites. Every time, when a new cartoon series is put on show, there must be some relative models come along. They are very beautiful and ingenious. Their design are fantastic. You can finish the model without any glue and it's quite active at the same time. They are also pretty good looking. I wish I can collect all of the Gundam models, but I just have several of them because of the money and time I can pay for them.

crossroad

Sometimes I'm afraid to make a decision. I always feel bemused when I'm going make some important decisions. It seems I'm standing before a crossroad. No map, no sign, no ending. It's pretty hard for me to choice the direction because I don't know if I'm right or not; but there's no twice, once after the choice, I have no "return". The decision may affect my life greatly. I hope I can predict the future to see the result of my choice; go back to the past to make some change; or my destiny had decided everything of my life, so any decision I make is meaningless. But unfortunately, I'm not the genius that can invent the time machine; I also don't know if I am living in my destiny or not. I don't know what my future is as I can't change my past. What I know just the wrong decisions result the bad sequels and I have to respond to my choices. I don't want to say "I wish" very often. What the hard life. I don't know is this the art of life? I just want to know how to make a decision easier.
