不过我在照片里已经饱到笑不由衷了

可惜没有拍下我们自己做的大餐

清蒸桂花鱼

海鲜赛螃蟹

赶在年尾巴上更新一下

寒假的读书计划看来是要流产了，回家都一个星期了只翻了一本论语心得和一本半Economist，不过还是有一些有趣的话的，贴出来分享一下

 

《论语心得》：

   “其实，一个人的视力本有两种功能，一个是向外去，无限宽广地拓展世界；另一个人是向内来，无限深刻地去发现内心。

    我们的眼睛，总是看外界太多，看内心太少。”

我也是这个浮躁的社会里的一员，所以觉得这句话一针见血。

 

还有一句：

   “孔夫子能够教给我们的快乐秘诀，就是如何去找到你内心的安宁。”

这句话让我很惊讶，因为学期初的时候有一次一个ABC朋友问我，你觉得快乐是什么？我说我没想过这个问题。他说，to me happiness is being at peace with everything。 我不以为然，说那看来各人有各人的定义。不料接下来的一整个学期屡有起伏，导致情绪一直不太高涨，而回头剖析一下自己的心态，无非就是患得患失，对一些小小的不顺利耿耿于怀罢了。看来我的ABC朋友比我更深得孔夫子的精髓：什么时候能够淡定和坦然地面对起伏得失，什么时候才能真正地保存快乐。

 

Last quote from Economist, talking about the development of the social etiquitte related to telephone calls as a novel way of telecommunication:

    "In 1903 the trade journal Telephony reported an elderly woman's complaints about her niece, who received a

    phone call from a male friend while dressing.  'The two of them stood talking to one another just as if they were

    entirely dressed and had stopped from a little chat on the street!  I tell you this generation is too much for me,'

    she grumbled."

So even something ubiquitous today has to go through all the social minefields at its initial stage：）

凡凡你看看谁来看我啦挖哈哈~

Is a deeper understanding as to how ideology works on ppl

How ppl get mentally locked up in a walled city, taking everything for granted without ever questioning its validity

Having been in many such walled cities myself, it feels good to finally have the chance to be an onlooker, peeping into someone else's wall, watching with amazment and amusement
