Vacation

I need to get a vacation!!!!!!!!!

somewhere very quite,no crowded people,no cellphone ring...

I have imagine that i live in a small wooden cottage house,near by a river, crowded pine tree, with a wooden chair and picnic table in my yard...and just front of my house,i have plant a lots and a lots of flowers especially tulips...and the garden tool still in the yard. The 'welcome' sign of my door kind of old and country style.
My house either painted with white or natural wooden color...
when wake up in the morning and wearing a comfortable casual-wear

with a hand of my favorite book...

when i step outside of my house ,i can feel the morning breeze and spring cooling winds breathe right through me..

with a cup of hot tea, sitting down on my wooden white painted chair...enjoy it

no one bother me,no one keep asking me to do this and that..

after reading the book,i could even just close my eyes and hear the running water...

or even plant some veggies for myself..

but how could this thing happen,it can't be..i have very important things in my life,my family..may be i can just leave it to imagination to do all this works.

but if there is a chance, may be i could take my family with me.



( i don't give a damn that i write it wrong or with so many grammar mistake, this is me)

Vintage paper dolls

when we were kids, have you ever play the paper dolls? I love the different kinds of their blouses,hats,wigs,shirts and even handbags. So colorful and a lot of fun to play with it. They some kind of Barbie doll but in paper. Sometimes we can play with our own theme such as, nurse and doctor,chefs,teachers,hotelier,bakery,F1 racer, beautician,saloon...etc etc....

we(my sisters and I) even kept it in a suitcase as their bedroom or living room. So much fun, we even can play from morning till night time, go to our friend's house,play till late evening and came home after dinner play it again..(dunno why we can play so long hours one)....mostly our paper dolls printed from Japan.. i hope somehow,this child memory game can reborn to the new generation.. rather then they go playing hour by hour of ps or psp,right?


Ready for the bunch of paper dolls pictures?

can't sleep

can't sleep as usual, feels like not enough time for me to do all the things in my life. If...if i God ask me what would i like, i will say ...i need more time to this world not only me, i meant the world needs more time to live on

Once upon a time

背影

yesterday was my father 61 birthday,saw him sitting on the coach while taking a nap,i could see that he is so old, his hair all covered by grey. His face mostly languish because he have been through all his life. Other people should be very happy about their birthday, but i see that pa is not that very happy, i hope that i could bring him to a special place to have dinner but i can't.....i hope that i could buy him what he likes, but i can't....may be he just want all his daughters could gather with him and cook simple dishes and have a dinner chit chat. Suddenly think of a person wrote about his father figure viewed from behind by chu zhi qing.


here is the articles..


我与父亲不相见已二年余了，我最不能忘记的是他的背影。那年冬天，祖母死了，父亲的差使也交卸了，正是祸不单行的日子，我从北京到徐州，打算跟着父亲奔丧回家。到徐州见着父亲，看见满院狼藉的东西，又想起祖母，不禁簌簌地流下眼泪。父亲说，“事已如此，不必难过，好在天无绝人之路！”
　　回家变卖典质，父亲还了亏空；又借钱办了丧事。这些日子，家中光景很是惨淡，一半为了丧事，一半为了父亲赋闲。丧事完毕，父亲要到南京谋事，我也要回北京念书，我们便同行。
　　到南京时，有朋友约去游逛，勾留了一日；第二日上午便须渡江到浦口，下午上车北去。父亲因为事忙，本已说定不送我，叫旅馆里一个熟识的茶房陪我同去。他再三嘱咐茶房，甚是仔细。但他终于不放心，怕茶房不妥帖；颇踌躇了一会。其实我那年已二十岁，北京已来往过两三次，是没有甚么要紧的了。他踌躇了一会，终于决定还是自己送我去。我两三回劝他不必去；他只说，“不要紧，他们去不好！”
　　我们过了江，进了车站。我买票，他忙着照看行李。行李太多了，得向脚夫行些小费，才可过去。他便又忙着和他们讲价钱。我那时真是聪明过分，总觉他说话不大漂亮，非自己插嘴不可。但他终于讲定了价钱；就送我上车。他给我拣定了靠车门的一张椅子；我将他给我做的紫毛大衣铺好坐位。他嘱我路上小心，夜里警醒些，不要受凉。又嘱托茶房好好照应我。我心里暗笑他的迂；他们只认得钱，托他们直是白托！而且我这样大年纪的人，难道还不能料理自己么？唉，我现在想想，那时真是太聪明了！
　　我说道，“爸爸，你走吧。”他望车外看了看，说，“我买几个橘子去。你就在此地，不要走动。”我看那边月台的栅栏外有几个卖东西的等着顾客。走到那边月台，须穿过铁道，须跳下去又爬上去。父亲是一个胖子，走过去自然要费事些。我本来要去的，他不肯，只好让他去。我看见他戴着黑布小帽，穿着黑布大马褂，深青布棉袍，蹒跚地走到铁道边，慢慢探身下去，尚不大难。可是他穿过铁道，要爬上那边月台，就不容易了。他用两手攀着上面，两脚再向上缩；他肥胖的身子向左微倾，显出努力的样子。这时我看见他的背影，我的泪很快地流下来了。我赶紧拭干了泪，怕他看见，也怕别人看见。我再向外看时，他已抱了朱红的橘子望回走了。过铁道时，他先将橘子散放在地上，自己慢慢爬下，再抱起橘子走。到这边时，我赶紧去搀他。他和我走到车上，将橘子一股脑儿放在我的皮大衣上。于是扑扑衣上的泥土，心里很轻松似的，过一会说，“我走了；到那边来信！”我望着他走出去。他走了几步，回过头看见我，说，“进去吧，里边没人。”等他的背影混入来来往往的人里，再找不着了，我便进来坐下，我的眼泪又来了。
　　近几年来，父亲和我都是东奔西走，家中光景是一日不如一日。他少年出外谋生，独力支持，做了许多大事。那知老境却如此颓唐！他触目伤怀，自然情不能自已。情郁于中，自然要发之于外；家庭琐屑便往往触他之怒。他待我渐渐不同往日。但最近两年的不见，他终于忘却我的不好，只是惦记着我，惦记着我的儿子。我北来后，他写了一信给我，信中说道，“我身体平安，惟膀子疼痛利害，举箸提笔，诸多不便，大约大去之期不远矣。”我读到此处，在晶莹的泪光中，又看见那肥胖的，青布棉袍，黑布马褂的背影。唉！我不知何时再能与他相见！
　　１９２５年１０月在北京。

Instagram Effects

I have been searching this apps for quite some times...finally i get it here..really nice for doing the 'retro' effects or kind of instagram effects


The current crop of photo sharing apps like Instagram and PicPlz have made filter effects a popular way of adding some extra vim to your shots. What if you want to give the ‘retro’ look to photos that aren’t on your phone though?

Rollip.com offers a quick and easy way to add a selection of 40 original filters to your pictures.The choice ranges from vintage looks to styled lens effects and glows. Just browse through the filter previews, upload your photo, apply the filter and after a short wait for the effect to be added, you’re done. You then get the option to download a preview or process and download the finished photo at full resolution.

The results look great too – and unlike many good quality photo filters out there, these are free. Rollip’s Maurice Sikkink tells us that professional photographers now use the service, which recently switched focus from providing “Low quality Polaroid conversions” to these new, great looking effects.

Try it now

It has to be said that it’s not quite perfect as a web app – we’d love the ability to preview multiple effects on an uploaded photo before applying the one that works best. Instead, you set the effect before uploading your photo.

Rollip is currently monetised via advertising, although Sikkink says that the Amsterdam-based venture may well start charging for hi-res conversions in future while keeping the smaller 1000×800 pixel conversion option free.

So, if you’ve looked on with envy at those gorgeous-looking Instagram shots that your friends share, it’s well worth giving Rollip a trip today.

老字號

昨晚，看了一个叫《老字号》的电视节目；不经不觉，感觉自己以前所欢喜的零食也都不经不觉便成老字号了。
不仅仅零食，就连一些在日常生活的东西，也都归类。
当我观赏那节目时，那主持人说了：“这些老字号也有他们的故事”时.......；我觉得同样地，其实‘它们’也都在陪伴着我们经过不少的岁月，经过了不少生活的点点滴滴。永远在脑海里刻下童年的故事及回忆，偶尔看见‘它们’，记忆又会被勾起，回顾以前甜蜜或艰难的日子。

好想再回到从前，与家人特别是我的姐妹；开开心心一起说笑，哭哭啼啼一起共鸣。真的好怀念.........

Waiting for the end.......

This is not the end
This is not the beginning
Just a voice like a riot
Rocking every revision
But you listen to the tone
And the violent rhythm
Though the words sound steady
Something emptys within em

We say yeah

With fists flying up in the air
Like we’re holding onto something that’s invisible there
Cuz we’re living at the mercy of the pain and the fear
Until we dead it forget it
Let it all disappear

Waiting for the end to come
Wishing I had strenght to stand
This is not what I had planned
It’s out of my control

Flying at the speed of light
Thoughts were spinning in my head
So many things were left unsaid
It’s hard to let you go

I know what it takes to move on
I know how it feels to lie
All I wanna do is trade this life for something new
Holding on to what I haven’t got

Sitting in an empty room


Trying to forget the past
This was never meant to last
I wish it wasn’t so

What was left when that fire was gone
I thought it felt right but that right was wrong
All caught up in the eye of the storm
And trying to figure out what it’s like moving on

And I don’t even know what kind of things I said
My mouth kept moving and my mind went dead
Picking up those pieces now where to begin
The hardest part of ending is starting again

All I wanna do is trade this life for something new
Holding on to what I haven’t got

This is not the end
This is not the beginning
Just a voice like a riot
Rocking every revision
But you listen to the tone
And the violent rhythm
Though the words sound steady
Something emptys within em

We say yeah

With fists flying up in the air
Like we’re holding onto something that’s invisible there
Cuz we’re living at the mercy of the pain and the fear
Until we dead it forget it
Let it all disappear

Back for good

Two months since i didn't blog anything...

back to normal

My Daily Picks (Movies)

National Treasure is a 2004 adventure film from the Walt Disney Studios under Walt Disney Pictures written by Jim Kouf, Ted Elliott, Terry Rossio, Cormac Wibberley, and Marianne Wibberley, produced by Jerry Bruckheimer, and directed by Jon Turteltaub. It is the first film in the National Treasure franchise and stars Nicolas Cage, Diane Kruger, Justin Bartha, Sean Bean, Jon Voight, Harvey Keitel, and Christopher Plummer. Cage plays Benjamin Gates, an historian and amateur cryptologist searching for a lost treasure, once protected by the Knights Templar and hidden by the Freemasons during the early years of the United States. A coded map on the back of the Declaration of Independence points to the location of the "national treasure", but Gates isn't alone in his quest. Whoever can steal the Declaration and decode it first, will find the greatest treasure in history.




Pearl Harbor is a 2001 American action war film directed by Michael Bay and produced by Bay, long-time partner Jerry Bruckheimer and Randall Wallace. It features a large ensemble cast, including Ben Affleck, Josh Hartnett, Alec Baldwin, Jon Voight, Kate Beckinsale, Cuba Gooding, Jr., Dan Aykroyd, Colm Feore, Mako, Tom Sizemore, Jaime King and Jennifer Garner.
Pearl Harbor is a dramatic reimagining of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor and the subsequent Doolittle Raid. Some of its scenes were among the last to be filmed in Technicolor. Despite receiving negative reviews from critics, Pearl Harbor earned $449,220,945 at the world wide box office.


Titanic is a 1997 American epic romance and disaster film directed, written, co-produced, and co-edited by James Cameron. A fictionalized account of the sinking of the RMS Titanic, it stars Leonardo DiCaprio as Jack Dawson and Kate Winslet as Rose DeWitt Bukater, members of different social classes who fall in love aboard the ship during its ill-fated maiden voyage. Although the central roles and love story are fictitious, some characters are based on genuine historical figures. Gloria Stuart portrays the elderly Rose, who narrates the film in a modern-day framing device, and Billy Zane plays Cal Hockley, the overbearing fiancé of the younger Rose. Cameron saw the love story as a way to engage the audience with the real-life tragedy.
Production on the film began in 1995, when Cameron shot footage of the actual Titanic wreck. The modern scenes were shot on board the Akademik Mstislav Keldysh, which Cameron had used as a base when filming the actual wreck. A reconstruction of the Titanic was built at Playas de Rosarito, Baja California, and scale models and computer-generated imagery were also used to recreate the sinking. The film was partially funded by Paramount Pictures and 20th Century Fox – respectively, its American and international distributors – and at the time, it was the most expensive film ever made, with an estimated budget of US$200 million.
The film was originally scheduled to open on July 2, 1997; however, post-production delays pushed back its release to December 19 instead. Titanic was an enormous critical and commercial success. It was nominated for fourteen Academy Awards, eventually winning eleven, including Best Picture and Best Director. It became the highest-grossing film of all time, with a worldwide gross of over $1.8 billion – the first film to reach the billion dollar mark – and remained so for twelve years until Cameron's next directorial effort, Avatar, surpassed it in 2010. Titanic is also ranked as the sixth best epic film of all time in AFI's 10 Top 10 by the American Film Institute. The film is due for theatrical re-release in 2012 after Cameron completes its conversion into 3-D.
