Today, I had a class with Dr. Abell, a RC professor who is absolutely passionate about economy and environment. The class was about the sustainability of an economic development. After reading the Introduction of "Beyond Growth" by  Daly, I have been swimming in the sea of thoughts, all about the sustainable development.

Our Accounting class had an exam on Monday, and we are getting the grades today, on Wednesday. Since I have done Accounting once before, I know the general idea of what is going on in the class. However, I am not as studious as I should be (as an Asian student). I read the textbook the day before the test just because I need to read it. For sure, I will lose a lot of points if I don't read the textbook, and I am so not going to let it happen.

Come to think about it! I have been here in the United States for more than a year. The story of my arriving to US was so simple. I didn't want to attend Institute of Medicine in my country. I know that a doctor is a noble and prestigious job. There is only one big problem. I was not interested in medical field. Simply, I wanted to be a businesswoman. I liked to picture myself in a suit and heels (although I have never worn heels yet), walking around the office, supervising the employees. I just loved that ME, which I pictured again and again while daydreaming.

Life is too short... just too short that... one meets another and then... departs... seriously, those times are really short if you try to recall them... But... if you don't want those memories to be full of scars ... you will have to watch your words when communicating with each other... I don't mean that you should not criticize each other... you can... but when you do that... think carefully... your position ... your purpose ... the effects ... and the meaning ... (if your words mean as you wanted them to be...) If you have really thought of these... and said your words.... it doesn't matter much if you hurt others.... but WHAT IF they were unintentional ??? You just can't go back... your words have already hurt other people... and the other party has started to dislike you ... or avoi d you... Do you think a "sorry" will be enough to heal that wound you have caused? ... definitely NOT ... So, I would like to remind all o

Isn’t being relationship easy? Just say a word “Yes”. Then, you end up with a boyfriend. There are usually three kinds of aftermaths. First Scenario First, he seems to be in love with you. Like before you guys get together, he will still repeat that he likes you a lot. Soon, he starts to get bored. However, at the same time, you might have already fallen in love with him, falling for his words. Then, he will start paying less attention to you. He will give you lots and lots of excuses to make you sick and tired of him. Then, at last, you end up breaking up with him because you can’t stand his behaviors any more. Or else, he will end up breaking up with you because you are not any more as interesting as before. Second Scenario He loves you so much that he will be always jealous. He will tell you to do this or not to do that. He will be so-called protecting you and showering you with his love. Well, it is really cute when you first get together with him. You will

It was September 22. You told me to break up with you. I asked you for the reasons; however, you refused to tell me anything. Only after a week did I know that you actually didn’t love me. You were feeling guilty that I fell in love with you for real. You thought that it would be the best if you put an end to my feelings. Then, let me tell you. Yes, I really fell in love with you. Did you think that I would wait for you like any other girls whose hearts you had broken? Did you think that I would beg you to come back to me? Did you think that I would forgive you for abusing my heart? The answer is “NO” to hell. Don't ever think that I am a drama queen like that girl in "The day you went away". I will never ever forgive you for what you have done to me. Let me give you the answer to those questions with just a song. It is this song “Fall” by Ina. I hope you enjoy this song. But don’t worry. I will not revenge you. I will just wait to smile un
