I just miss that place

Well, it is neither a story nor an experience. It IS a part of your life.

Life is adorable


Well, when Deborah has invited David to do the lecture today, I just thought, this should be another scholar persuading us to study more about statistics and diagrams. And it turns out I was totally wrong about this.

It was a fun actually. For a procrastinative young person without any real social experiences just like me, to figure out what to do in the future has always been a real tough job. David talked about lifestyle journalism this afternoon, which reminded me again of my instincts and unrevealed passion on this unfamiliar but interesting pathway of journalism. I mean, well, I have been doing the journalism for a very long time... like four or five years... and this number would grow again if you wish to count the years i spent in some shabby studios of my primary school, middle school and high school in as well. A month ago when Deborah assigned us our first task during this module which is to monitor a prominent news story from three different types of media, I chose the Times, the Guardian and the BBC then. It happened to cover a weekend. And I got to have a look at the Sunday Times Magazine as a bonus from the press - like a kind of compensation after a customer has spent 2.5 pounds on a set of papers which would leads to inevitably two nasty hands... And I scanned the magazine. And I closed it. And I said to myself, Sarah, this is what you really want, isn't it???

I still don't know yet if that weird idea just came up like a slyly fairy upon my shoulder, waving her wings and blinking her eyes at me, or just a normal reaction as a reader finishing reading an interesting and attracting magazine. Things always develop in an unpredictable way and I really envy those who know what they want and persist on their dreams.

It seems a lousy idea to change now because of my selfishness after so many years of devotion. Thousands of occupations exist in this world and I am interested in hundreds of them?

When you get used to wearing UGGs... it is really difficult to put on the heels and get downstairs and say hey let's go shopping to your dear friends. There is a saying in ancient China which means that what you cant get is just the best. Well, dreams are pretty, they are innocent as newborn babies, oh meybe more like little Ricky, when you try to get to see them more clearly - opps - they just splash... And there comes no good.

Nagging Sarah has a secret to tell at the end of the story, hah~ Next time, never use a diet coca to cook your cola-chicken-wing, it is a disaster. Obey the rules and you'll be pleased. Trust me.

An Education

It has been a long time since the first time i watched the film The Education. Felt bored yesterday evening after a legislation analysis assignment almost killed me, I checked the film list I could get access to, then I found The Education among them. Actually this is abnormal - due to the high demand of my greedy appetite for new films and the limitation of my digital storage space, what i usually do afterwards is to press Ctrl+Delete to get rid of the watched films. Well, I said. God helped you stay. Let's find out the reason now.

Every girl has got a White Knight in her mind, not only because of all those pretty and lovely princess and prince fairytales told by her parents when she was little impressed her, but also the nature of girls' tenderness and desires of sweet love. Thus, Jenny is lucky. Really. She had met a gentleman who taught her about the life she has been longing for, the love she has dreamt of... And he had even taken her to Paris. He showed her around the adults' world.

I insist that the man loved her, though someone had argued with me about this for a really long session. He loved her so he tried to make her laugh, bought dozens of gifts for her birthday and proposed in a touching way...(My heart melted when he kneed down on the ground as well) And! He got jealous when he found out that his friend liked her! He is charming. Apperantly he is far more attractive compared to a dull and unsophisticated adolescent boyfriend. Not mentioning when Jenny was only 16 and has got a really annoying dad at home. Oxford, yes, it is marvelous and GLORIOUS with its red bricks and so what??? Oxford to Jenny is just like a posh Bristol to her dad, and that is the reason why she has been pushed so hard. Jenny's parents even have lost themselves in that fashion Jewish man - no one could dare to point at Jenny, saying that she was seduced by posh cars, posh bars, posh concerts and posh trips.

Jenny is different with Helen, who only knows Chelsea and "english books". Trop cher pour moi... and I am going to Oxford to read English. Helen helped Jenny change into a real woman. Helen taught Jenny how to dress like a lady instead of a child. Helen made "Carey Mulligan" look like Audrey Hepburn and herself Catherine Deneuve.Helen is a belle. It is a shame that she do not speak french or she could win Danny more.

Carey Mulligan played well. And I do like her smile, and her mini delicate scapula. Really attractive. :)
