青海省玉树县地震之感

14.4.10, 青海省玉树县发生了地震。
我没经历过地震， 连余震也没有体验过，但是，从报道上，报纸上的照片和网络上的新闻， 这确实是惊心动魄。虽然我不知道青海省到底在中国的哪一个角落， 也不知道玉树是在什么地方，但是，发生这种天灾，身在远方的我也有所感触， 生命的脆弱， 难道一定要在生命消失的当儿才会被体验到吗？
21.4.10, 中国举行了举国哀悼会。
我游览了某个论坛，发现了一个令我震惊的标题。 标题写着，“pps 为哀悼青海玉树停播”，某人发表到：“我想说.....你们才死几个啊？”（无针对的意识）。 也有网友说害得他一整天都没得看戏。
原来，对于有些人来说， 人命的价值，远比不上娱乐。仅是内地国人为了不幸的同胞哀悼，举国发动了暂停娱乐一天而已，有些人不但没有反省自己，反而还有怨言。大概是因为没有发生在自己身上所已无法感同身受吧！

看了这些，再看到天安门广场上的五星红旗照常升起，然后国旗从旗杆顶端徐徐降下一半， 内心出现了一种感觉，就是人情冷暖！

Blossom 2

Here is the follow-up picture of yesterday yellow flower tree. In just one day time, all the blossomed flowers have gone. From attaching on the tree to lying on the road side. Things really changing fast.

The flower-less yellow flower tree today. Looks sad and now even more soulless and lifeless.

Blossom

Here are some random photo taken today. Taken out my camera because i was inspired and attracted by the beautiful Yellow flower that blossom near the grass field. I was hoping i can capture the beauty of the blossom because the beauty fades away very quickly. I somehow only manage to capture part of the beauty, which i thing was soulless. Then i took a picture of my brother playing the bubble-blowing.

Do you remember this simple and yet dreamy fairy-tale created little thingy ?

The picture of what i think was soulless yellow flower blossom. Taken from 16th floor.

Movie: Cairo Time

Watched this movie- Cairo Time. A movie that i don't recall showing at our cinema. The story have a beautiful background which is Cairo in Egypt. There is a scene that showing just the peak of the pyramid at night with lights, i love it very much and i think I will be amused just by starring at it.
The actress looks familiar to me but i couldn't recall saw her on which movie. This is a love story movie. Not romantic enough but very warm and real. Normally, romantic movie have very slow story line and sometime even boring. This movie, Cairo Time play it very well. You want to watch at it carefully and don't want to miss any moment. That's how a movie is considered success in the eyes of us, the normal.
The movie started with a beautiful woman, Juliette came to Cairo to meet up with her husband, Mark, who was working at UN and was stuck at Gaza at moment Juliette arrived. He sent his best friend, Tareq to pick her up at the airport. It was dangerous for a woman to walk in the street of Cairo alone. Juliette said she had promised her husband she will save the visit of Pyramids for her husband Mark. While her husband was still stuck at Cairo, Juliette gradually attracted by Tareq. It was more of a mutual attraction. They have spent their very last moment alone at the Pyramid. 2 mutually attracted people sitting at pyramid and admiring the beauty of the dessert. The scene where these 2 people walking towards the pyramid, stepping each of their step on the sand, with wind blowing and knowing that they love each other, is the most beautiful scene in this movie. At that moment, love was hovering all over them.
This is not a breath-taking action movie or thriller movie, viewer should watch it with a new set of eyes and remember to throw away all the things that you have in your mind to fully enjoy it.

Key-Chain

Friends, relatives and neighbours happened to travel around to some exotic places recently. I am one of the lucky girl because i seemed to have higher chances of getting souvenir from them. One of my Aunties visited Turkey on March, she brought me 2 nice key-chains. My mum came back from visiting China few days ago and i happened to be the biggest benefiter. Then today, My neighbour auntie visited Tokyo, Japan and just came back few days back, she had brought me some candy, and a key-chain. It's from Tokyo Asakusa. So, is it that people prefer key-chain as a souvenir because it is cute and represents the unique characteristic of a place? I wonder.......

Here are the picture of the key-chain from Tokyo.
