Wang-wang

  Mother lives by herself in our old house in my hometown since my elder sister married. Thinking mother may feel lonesome and sometimes may be frightened to some extent, especially at night, replica oakley sunglasses, my sister sent a little dog in a shoe-box to mother some day. It was only about one month old at that time. When I went home not long after it got to mother 's house, I saw that little  creature . He had yellowish white fur and looked so small that I could have to say he was no larger than a kitty, however, downy and cuddly. Mother found a piece of cotton pad for him to lie about and asked spoonfuls of goat milk from my neighour every day to feed him. I named him Wang-wang, a common name for dogs. From then on, mother has being kept him for years, and he may be the only one who accompanies mother all day long these years. Now he has become a big and much stronger dog and a responsible house-guard and seems kind. He would bark violently as any stranges approach to the gate but never bites any one. Mother evalates of him to me: what Wang-wang can do is to bark and scare people who come to me. He dare not bite any people, nfl jerseys cheap, but just shout at them to remind me someone is coming. Mother may be out sometimes, Wang-wang would sit near the door for hours waiting for mother's appearing. He would bark at me, too , and waving his tail happily and running and jumping around me though he might have not seen me for months. Here is a picture of Wang-wang. He was tied. I once asked Mum why Wang-wang was tied. Mum told me. Our next-door neighbor's chincken flow over the wall and wandered in our yard to look for food. Wang-wang was angery at that . He chased after it and killed it. In spite of mother's apology, the neighbor was resentful. One day when mother got home and found there was blood in Wang-wang's neck, she touched it, a tuft of the hair fell. It was a new scar. Mother was sad and applied medicinal powder on the it.Later, cheap hats, someone else told mother how it had happened. Besides that, there are dog-dealers in the village from time to time who drive their tri-cycles purchasing dogs and sell the dogs to butchers. They also steal dogs if it is possible. To prevent Wang-wang's being hurt, mother made her mind to tie Wang-wang at home. “Why not release him ever some period of time? ” I advised mother. "He is too clever. Once I untied him, he ran away immediately as he saw the reins in my hand, though he might keep bouncing around me althel  time." mother said

Who am I?

when hearing the question,maybe you will be puzzled and satirize my silly baffle like this.Seriously,it's a thought-provoking matter that is worthy to be made a detailed inquiry.
 In my profound memory,nfl jerseys china, i was a tactful girl at the much younger age,since that time i had realized it's my obligation to study industriously,because only in that way can i make achievement in the further future.Of course,the truth confirmed my decent behavior, i gained compliment from the teachers,my relatives and friends took pride with me, i was satisfied with myself too.
 But everything was changed since i entered the college. I began to be confused with what the teacher said in the class.hearing from teachers of the senior high school that the university life is cosy,l was not willing to burry myself into the study anymore.What worse was,little by little,i couldn't catch up with my classmates,they could speak fluent oral English and know many complex words.I just felt self-abased,English is my profession,cheap nfl hats, and i was infatuated with it once upon a time,while now there is no motivation to advance me to learn it elaborately,instead many trivial things occupied my time.
 So in my mind i'm a loser in my university life compared with the peers around until now.who am i? The question often goes through my mind.No ideals, no targets,no motivation,i just live day by day with nothing meaningful done.In any case,it's time to make changes for me. after three years later,i will leave the campus and march into society, with no learning lore or skill,it's much tough to find my standing room in the ruthless society.whenever and wherever,cheap Oakley sunglasses, we should absorb all kinds of knowledge constantly.

cultural differences- going dutch or Chinese term "AA"

Farewell lunch for a lovely Norwegian girl

10 Years ago, I lived on campus- Chisholm College.

A very pretty Norwegian girl invited our floor mates for farewell lunch.

“Sounds great, I love it.”

When I went to the Uni canteen, my friends were queuing up in front of the canteen counter paying their own meal.

“Is that real?” I wondered, “We have to pay ourselves?”

In China
In my memory of China, when I attended birthday or farewell parties,replica oakley sunglasses, I bought one gift, the host would definitely provide a nice meal.

Aussie friends' birthdays

Once more, the time I attended one Aussie friend’s birthday party, my friend’s siblings, parents, relatives and friends were invited.

To my surprise, each guest paid own dish including my friend’s family members.

That would be the great honour if my friend received cups of free drinks in the restaurant from the people who attended the birthday party.

Once more, on one Aussie girl’s birthday, I bought her a gift, she bought guests drinks and entree platters for share, but I would not expect a free main dish from her —I’d pay my own.

In China

However, In China, the birthday person or married couples will pay for everything from entrée to the main meal, dessert, fruits, nfl jerseys cheap,drinks  even cigarettes.

In return, guests will either buy a luxury gift or simply gives him or her red packet for Lucky money which is most popular.

In recent years, it has become increasingly stressful for both sides.

Because the food is getting better and more expensive in the restaurant which also causes the burden for guests as the red packet is becoming bigger and bigger, and sometimes it occupies a big percentage for a low-income earner.


My childhood- Chinese New Year

One of the biggest things in my childhood was Chinese New Year’s Day as I could have a few days’ feast at my Uncle’s house. (Well, that's because we usually didn't have sufficient food available that time, so New Year's day was the happiest moment.)

I do appreciate my Uncle, Aunt and others who spent the efforts, time and energy for preparing nice meals: 2 big tables for adults and 1 small table for kids (total around 30 people).

For Aussies, you might be surprised about that, we did give them some unprepared food and contributed a little bit cash.

Whereas we didn’t give them help except chatting, eating, playing cards, listening to the live music some relatives' playing.

Christmas Lunch with one Aussie friend's family

I used to take it for granted until I attended a Christmas dinner at one Aussie friend’s house, then I realized how comfortable life that was.
For a Christmas lunch at my friend’s place was pretty simple, it was like a potluck, each household brought a few dishes for share.

The Aussie family did organize very well beforehand, for example, one family prepared roasted meat, another one made desserts,cheap hats, or someone brought fruits, snacks, the rest prepared salad or cheese platter etc.

At the end of the day, everyone brought leftover home, so it’s simple and easy, which won't take a huge amount of time for the host.

In Daily life

When I had dinner at restaurants with one girl friend who has just been back from China, she insisted on paying for my part, but I said:“Let’s just split the bill, I prefer a simple friendship.”

Because we don’t have to remember that we owe each other a meal, then one day we might have to arrange the time to buy back the meal.

For splitting the bill, we can meet at any time, any restaurant, even someone else can join, which is really easy and flexible.

Chinese tradition

In China, someone with overseas' background, or young generation, or people who work in foreign-run companies are likely influenced by western culture- paying for themselves when going outside with colleagues, classmates and even friends.

The elder generation, the Chinese culture lovers have the idea that men are supposed to pay ladies for the restaurants as they think men should be generous, look after ladies.

“That’s so mean, ask a lady share bill with me? No, I pay for all.” I would expect my dad absolutely say that to me.

I know, he’s a very traditional responsible most kind gentleman.

In China, when close friends dining out, it is quite normal, one person paying for this time, the others paying next time in order to keep a long lasting friendship, sounds good idea.

My experience in Australia

In Australia, from my experience with Aussie good friends, we split the bill, I am used to it actually and pretty much enjoy it.

Depression

Depression, like staying young and keeping fit, is doomed to be a losing battle but I just can’t give up fighting. For years, I’ve tried to create an optimist image and stay that way. I’ve shared happy, positive moments of learning, travelling, exercising in WeChat Moments, nfl jerseys china, I’ve kept all the negative things and dark thoughts deeply inside my heart, and I’ve tried my best to hold on to a positive attitude as if my whole lifeline depends on it.

However, being born to a sensitive person, I’m so damn easily being upset. Only myself knew all the efforts, all the costs that I have taken behind every smile on the face.  Because I am sensitive, I know how annoying it could be to the others to deal with a sensitive person. So I’ve tried not to cause any troubles. I’ve tried so hard to keep my emotions in check, tried not to feel so much, to feel so strong. However, is it something I can take control of? On the surface, I’ve made some progress. I’ve always been polite and easy going. But in fact, I’ve just carefully kept a safe distance with the others. As for the inside, who cares?

Being occupied helps. So I keep as busy as I can. I work, I take care of house chores, and for the rest of time,cheap Oakley sunglasses, I learn, I do exercise. I allow myself no time to feel, to think. Positive attitudes lead to positive action, or reaction, even a forced up one. However, you can force a positive attitude, but you cannot force a positive thinking. So sometimes, depression still haunts you. Like today, like now.

I’ve been under the weather since last night. My headache hurts and my muscles, my limbs seemed to turn into the water. I went to bed earlier and let my husband taking care of things at home. This morning, I still didn’t feel well. But I had to get up early and send my son to school. And I saw a total mess. Leftover food still stayed at the table, dirty clothes everywhere, garbage bin already overfull. And I heard my son said accusingly: “I wash the dishes, but its dad’s responsible to tide up the table, he did nothing.” I know my husband is a house chore virgin, and now he is determined to keep this virginity to the grave? Frustrations, cheap nfl hats, along with all the other negative feelings washed over my body.  “Don’t fuss over the trivialities.” I told myself again and again, still I can’t help it.

Love is verb. Stop all the sweet talks and just do something if you really care.

People did not have rich entertainment as we do right now.

The step of new year approaches to the last moment when people are about to celebrate this festival. On some level, this traditional festival has evolved into the modern style that most of those rites have been faded from people's memory, especially the young, they have their own activities to embrace new life style. Whatever it is going to be influenced, the image of tradition still occupies and recalls us to know it is the time that we should gather together with family having fun in warm around of reunion. 

The city now is almost empty and most of citizens go to either abroad or some other domestic tourist spots. Since the fireworks are not to be allowed showing in the nights, the quality of air becomes much better. The suburb and countryside still have fireworks, this night is doomed to be noisy full of strong smell of sulfur. Meanwhile everyone becomes a gourmet to enjoy palatable food. 

For years, I have not watched the live of spring festival gala. The old memory of programs in that gala was many years ago when I was in middle school. At that age, people did not have rich entertainment as we do right now. Now the various kinds of recreations provide us with magnificent joyfulness. The Red Envelop even has become the fashion among apps such as Wechat and Alipay, the technology alters our life. We can not shelter ourselves safely from the invasion of the trend of modernization. Let it be with the development of everything goes to be like in its own position. 

This is the time to welcome the lunar new year and say farewell to the old year. Read a book, visit friends, talk with family, travel somewhere, are all options that we can choose. Apart from the tradition, we have freedom the pursue the life we want. It is not that far away from the dream that we have as long as there hope and action.
