十月围城

Went to watch movie yesterday. Wanted to watch Avatar, but no more tics so watched 十月围城 instead. And coincidentally, I happen to watch a segment on food shortage ard the world on TV mobile today.

什么是革命?为了一人的安全,牺牲了这么多人。只因为这个人是中国的希望。可笑的是,这个人是为了几亿的中国人而革命。更可笑的是,牺牲的人不是为了革命而奋不顾身。更更可笑的是,那时的民主理想至今也未实现。也许他们争取的并不是民主吧。其实有可能只是三餐温饱,有可能是为了情,为了义,甚至是个人利益。

几千年来,中国向来都是合久必分,分久必合。每一个朝代的复兴衰弱,改朝换代,都必经杀虐牺牲。而乱世中必出英雄。这些英雄也是背着“害死”很多人的愧疚,戴上“英雄”的光环。

今时今日,再也没有人讲革命。最多也只有示威和游行。革了命后的世界,再也没有国王,皇帝统治国家。人人追求平等,进步和更好的生活。科技越来越发达,马路越建越多,房子越建越高,车子越来越多,没有人要耕田,也越来越少地能耕田。贫富差距越来越大,食物天然物资也越来越少,污染也越来越严重,地球也越来越不适合人类生活。我们追求的“美好未来”到底是什么?

19 Dec 2009

Woo Hoo! I have passed both modules!

Glad that everything turn out well!

I went to a wedding dinner yesterday at St Regis, 3rd wedding dinner I attended this month. I start to understand why some people dread going to wedding dinner.

I used to feel excited going to wedding dinner. I cried at alomost every wedding dinner I attended in the past: when my friends march in with the beautiful gown, when they show the montage of how they finally got together, when they gave their speech and thank their parents...

Yesterday's wedding was very impressive: Dinner was served individuall in delicate portions, The couple hand-made sweets as their wedding favors, they printed high-class magazine for all their guest with their wedding photos, the groom played the grand piano and sang to the bride, there are live jazz band, the ball room has high ceiling and the decoration is grand yet romantic, almost everything a dream wedding should have... a very memorable one indeed...

Yet I don't feel touched, like what I used to feel.

The effect of attending too many wedding dinner. :(
