Oh, the Places You’ll Go!

 

Congratulations!

Today is your day.

You're off to Great Places!

You're off and away!


You have brains in your head.

You have feet in your shoes

You can steer yourself

any direction you choose.

You're on your own.  And you know what you know.

And YOU  are the guy who'll decide Where  `blogid`=5157  AND to go.


You'll look up and down streets.  Look 'em over with care.

About some you will say, "I don't choose to go there."

With your head full of brains and your shoes full of feet,

you're too smart to go down any not-so-good street.


And you may not find any

you'll want to go down.

In that case, of course,

you'll head straight out of town.


It's opener there

in the wide open air.


Out there things can happen

and frequently do

to people as brainy

and footsy as you.


And when things start to happen,

don't worry.  Don't stew.

Just go right along.

You'll  start happening too.


OH!

THE PLACES YOU'LL GO! 


You'll be on your way up!

You'll be seeing great sights!

You'll join the high fliers

who soar to high heights.


You won't lag behind, because you'll have the speed.

You'll pass the whole gang and you'll soon take the lead.

Wherever you fly, you’ll be the best of the best.

Wherever you go, you will top all the rest.


Except when you don’ t

Because, sometimes, you won’t.


I’m sorry to say so

but, sadly, it’s true

and Hang-ups

can happen to you.


You can get all hung up

in a prickle-ly perch.

And your gang will fly on.

You’ll be left in a Lurch.


You’ll come down From the Lurch

with an unpleasant bump.

And the chances are, then,

that you’ll be in a Slump.


And when you’re in a Slump,

you’re not in for much fun.

Un-slumping yourself

is not easily done.


You will come to a place Where the streets are not marked.

Some windows are lighted.  But mostly they’re darked.

A place you could sprain both you elbow and chin!

Do you dare to stay out?  Do you dare to go in?

How much can you lose? How much can you win?


And IF  you go in, should you turn left or right…

or right-and-three-quarters? Or, maybe, not quite?

Or go around back and sneak in From behind?

Simple it’s not, I’m afraid you will find,

for a mind-maker-upper to make up his mind.


You can get so confused

that you’ll start in to race

down long wiggled roads at a break-necking pace

and grind on for miles across weirdish wild space,

headed, I fear, toward a most useless place.





The Waiting Place…

…for people just waiting.

Waiting for a  train to go

or a bus to come, or a plane to go

or the mail to come, or the rain to go

or the phone to ring, or the snow to snow

or waiting around for a Yes or a No

or waiting for their hair to grow.

Everyone is just waiting.


Waiting for the fish to bite

or waiting for wind to fly a kite

or waiting around for Friday night

or waiting, perhaps, for their Uncle Jake

or a pot to boil, or a Better Break

or a sting of pearls, or a pair of pants

or a wig with curls, or Another Chance.

Everyone is just waiting.


NO!

That’s not for you!


Somehow you’ll escape

all that waiting and staying.

You’ll find the bright places

Where Boom Bands are playing.


With banner flip-flapping,

once more you’ll ride high!

Ready for anything under the sky.

Ready because you’re that kind of a guy!


Oh, the places you’ll go! There is fun to be done!

There are points to be scored.  there are games to be won.

And the magical things you can do with that ball

will make you the winning-est winner of all.

Fame!  You’ll be famous as famous can be,

with the whole wide world watching you win on TV.


Except when they don’t.

Because, sometimes, they won’t.


I’m afraid that some  times

you’ll play lonely games too.

Games you can’t win

’cause you’ll play against you.


All  Alone!

Whether you like it or not,

Alone will be something

you’ll be quite a lot.


And when you’re alone, there’s a very good chance

you’ll meet things that scare you right out of your pants.

There are some, down the road between hither and yon,

that can scare you so much you won’t want to go on.


But on you will go

though the weather be foul

On you will go

though your enemies prowl

On you will go

though the Hakken-Kraks howl

Onward up many

a frightening creek,

though your arms may get sore

and your sneakers may leak.


On and on you will hike

and I know you’ll hike far

and face up to your problems

whatever they are.


You’ll get mixed up, of course,

as you already know.

You’ll get mixed up

with many strange birds as you go.

So be sure when you step.

Step with care and great tact

and remember that Life’s

a Great Balancing Act.

Just never forget to be dexterous and deft.

And never  mix up your right foot with your left.


And will you succeed?

Yes! You will, indeed!

(98 and 3 / 4 percent guaranteed.)


KID, YOU’LL MOVE MOUNTAINS!


So…

be your name Buxbaum or Bixby or Bray

or Mordecai Ali Van Allen O’Shea,

you’re off to Great Places!

Today is your day!

Your mountain is waiting.

So…get on your way!


—Dr. Seuss

 

I believe no one grows without pain. Though someone's life is smooth, most of us has to gone through barriers, suffering loneness in desert or even facing death. Growth is a painful procedure.I guess no one wants to grow up, at least I do not.  The whole enviornment around us forces to grow even without negociation.It may be an unhealthy environment I am in now. But how about other's? Do they really like the environment they are living in now? Do they really feel happy everyday now?

 

No one can give me an answer. The only thing I know is I have grown up by suffering, crying, thinking and struggling. No enjoyful so far. Hope is the only straw I am gripping.

 

Little things always change our decision.

夏天了，外面的天气真好。可是我已经对外面的世界失去了兴趣。一切的经历都放在我得论文上了。整天都在想到底这些数据说明什么呢？其实是big mass data。但是为了毕业又不得不make a story. 就这样在家里编故事吧。

看看别人的blog似乎每天都发生新鲜的事情。可是我的生活却很单调乏味。实在想逃离这个单调的生活。哪怕面对一个不可知的未来，也要比整天陷在混沌的现在好多了。

This is a Japanese girl's blog. Her pics of China. It is my very first time to know how beaitiful my country is. Enjoy the pics.

 

I changed my mind suddenly and found the direction for my future. Cool!

最近听说好多朋友都结婚了，身边的朋友，以前的同学。似乎还有很多人在计划着结婚呢？看着别人的结婚照，发现每个人都很美，但是就是没有真诚的幸福感在里面。是不是摄影师过于注重形式了，摆的pose过于professional了，以致于让画中之人感到了现实中的童话，让画外的感到了童话的实现。我忽然想问：结婚是为了什么?你们都准备好了吗？你们都是如何找到另一半的？为什么你认为他们就是你要找得人呢？

太多的问题，有谁能回答呢？

Suddently , I feel I grow up. It is my transation time from a girl to a woman from outside and mind. The only place has not been changed is my heart. I am still a little girl, 12 years old.

I experienced my very first  time of teaching, making-up by myself, buying skirt for myself and ect. I cannot understand why I changed so much. It must be a little doll  in my heart without waking up for a very long time.

从女孩蜕变成女人的过程是美丽的。It is such a wonderful journey of the metamorphosis from a girl to a woman.

 

Do we really need to change? Does the world shape us or we shape ourselves or the people around us affect more?

Cooking rice with a pot makes me remind my aunt who just passed away this year. I suddenly thought about what really made others thinks about a person after he or she dead? It is the skill or method he or she taught you before makes he or she lives in your mind forever. I will never forget her for the cooking method she taught me.

 

 

You scored as Theater.
You should be a Theater major! Like a bohemian actress, you are seasoned and confident and not afraid to express yourself!
Theater 100% Psychology 100% Art 92% Sociology 92% Philosophy 92% Anthropology 83% Mathematics 75% Journalism 75% Engineering 75% English 67% Linguistics 67% Dance 58% Chemistry 42% Biology 33%

Spring is so beautiful! White snow, green grass, red flowers and brown squirrels, Full of color!  It is an amazing thing to see green colors under white snow! I do not know it is winter or spring already. Everywhere is brighter than winter. Sunny, feeling!

Just one thing is a little bit sad for me. It is time. Time is flying. I could not believe it is already April in 2006. If we could live 50 years. My life has passed a half. How to enjoy the time left? It seems to be a question.

忽然发现很多认识的人和不认识的人都出国国。我们大约都是一个年代的人。出国，无论去那个国家，经历都是相仿的。所以出国学习的生活经历，似乎成了一代人共有的特征。国外的生活有苦也有甜。看到了许多从来没有看到的东西，感受不同的风土人情，有了不同肤色的朋友，熟练了另外一种语言，不过也经历了连肉都不舍的吃的困难，心里的孤独，巨大的生活和经济压力。着所有的一切让我们这一代人迅速的成长，也学会了在梦想与现实中不断找到平衡。学会了恬静与浮燥的不同适应方法。

这经历是一笔财富，是一段永远也无法忘记的经历。它将如何改变我们的祖国呢?又有谁会知道呢？

读读别人的blog，发现很多朋友都在欧洲。那些照片真美。难怪他们的心情如此只好， 还比较多产，写了那么多好文章。比比加拿大还是比较衰老的地方（可能是我住的城市比较衰老了）。到处都是老人，没有什么活力。连我认识的朋友也没有多少比我小的。

终于快要毕业了。回想在这个异国它乡学到的和感受到的东西似乎太多了。不过最最重要的还是自由。现在终于知道了，一定要做自己喜欢做的，要学自己喜欢学的才能生活的开心快乐。学习吗， 很多人都读了又读，最后还是没有工作，也不开心。真是不知道为了什么！^_^

在北京休息一段时间，感受一下中国的生活。好忙碌，好无奈，但是好温馨！

 

每一个人都在变。昨天看了一个老同学的照片，居然都没有人出来。完全不同了。生活也改变了很多。可能连梦想都变了。可是只有我还没有变。还是那个我，相貌，思想，生活。什么都没有变。是不是有些可怜。

2005年了，生于七十年代的这拨人，最大的三十五，最小的二十六

做为最早出生于七十年代的人随手间记下从小到大的一些事情

要不，再过几年，恐怕会忘记

七零族是最难以被定性的一群，他们正好遇见了一个没有共同价值取向、共同的教育背景和思想背景的时代。思想史的研究学者可以在书斋里面痛斥所谓的“礼崩乐坏”，而面对多元的社会环境，七零族呈现出其他任何人群所不曾拥有的多姿多彩。
以我的看法，对社会国家的命运怀有真诚关怀，这更像是70年代人的特点而不是前辈们的特点。
　

★ 70年代人少年时最大的理想是长大了成为一名:科学家
　☆ 70年代人现在最大的理想或者愿望是:只要快乐就好
　★ 70年代人是否还相信爱情?: 相信爱情
　☆ 现在的70年代人，最在乎的是:亲情
　★ 70年代人通常以哪个阶层自居?: 知识分子、市民阶层、打工仔、都市白领
　☆ 最能代表70年代人的词儿：有责任感
　★ 什么颜色最能代表70年代人：湛蓝



恰在心念俱放的时候.
笙歌四起.遂寻你于来处..
游走在往事的花香中.

　

　

出生于1970年代注定了我们拥有不可救药的乐观主义精神。在超过四分之一的世纪中，中国没有经历过全国性的混乱，没有遭遇恶劣的外部环境，并保持着高速度的物质生产能力，这在过去150年的中国，从未出现过。这种乐观主义常常赋予我无法去除的轻浮感，世界总是充满幸运、而没有艰苦。几代人面临民族危难时表现出的深重的使命感，到了我这一代几乎消失殆尽。出生于70年代后期的一代人几乎是“天然的全球化的一代”，对他们而言，世界是以另一种方式进行叙述的。
只有我们70年代的人站了出来指出了社会这个不业南质怠?

但是，70年代人活动的时间不会很长，因为80年代的人正在成长，而且长得很快。新新新人类已经出现，我们不知道他们会怎样，但是我们70年代的历史任务将很快完成。

我热爱70年代出生的人，因为我们是现在中国最有朝气的一代人！所有对我们的批判，只会显得他们的妒忌，他们的奸诈，他们的浅薄。

　

小人书替代了所有的国内外名著，看小人书成为70年代出生的小孩的一大乐趣。我们喜欢看"小人书"，小人书的学名叫连环画，但那时我们都叫它"小人书"，可能更亲切些，还有点神秘感。
　

时光带走的不仅仅是一茬茬的人，一桩一桩的事，时光还埋葬了一个一个语词，这些语词现在已经“死”了，但是对于跟它们一起成长的人来说，真正是———“从来不需要想起，永远也不会忘记”。难忘的，更是在这些语词背后隐藏着的情怀，包括酸的、甜的、痛的、乐的、荒谬的、深刻的……


　70族自有他们独特而丰富的美丽与哀愁，他们没有60年代的人们那么充满理想和激情，
然而他们又的确比80年代的新新人类更加深刻。



“而立”的年龄被提得越来越早，过去是30岁以上给社会制定“游戏规则”，而如今这个权利转移到了二十来岁人的手中，腿脚稍微不利索就会被“生猛海鲜”们撞个人仰马翻。加上诸如“三十而立”、“人过三十天过晌”等等来自民间、一代一代沿袭下来的说法，逼得那些为人生有所设计的70年代们要跳墙。

对于一腔雄心、壮志未酬的70年代们，“三十而立”就像身后追逐的野兽。耳边是野兽爪子踩过落叶的嚓嚓声音，脊背是一层一层的凉意，这代人身体斜曲成弓形，紧张奔跑一刻也不敢停留，甚至不敢回头。累伤的70年代们发出一声浩叹，想坐下来略微停停，或者伸伸腰杆，捶一捶发木的小腿。然而，停留的间隙，追逐的野兽从头顶上呼啸而过，虎视眈眈截住了去路……越是临近30岁的年龄，这样的想象越是频繁地出现在他们的梦里。人们都知道询问女孩的年龄是一件不礼貌的事情。而今在这“时不我待”的年代里，壮怀激烈的男人同样脆弱，他们的梦境深处发出羔羊的叫声：“妹妹，别问哥的年龄”。一个个关卡，在你没起步的时候就屹立在远方，等待着你走到它面前的时候深刻反省：如果侥幸合格，你的心情会稍微有些放松，但穿过那高高的门楼，短短的隧道，不远处又一道关卡映入了眼帘，容不得你歇息，你不得不铆足劲儿往前冲；如果没有通过，甚至三十岁了，你既无事业的根基，也没有能给人“打杂”的高学历，没有人来指责你，你的感受也不会好过“万箭穿心”。

但我分明见过70年代的人为了理想的失落而酩酊大醉，
我分明听过酒桌旁两位70年代的人激昂地说我们这代人还相信爱情……

　

天行健，
君子以自强不息。
地势坤，
君子以厚德载物。



春天的花开秋天的风以及冬天的落阳忧郁的青春年少的我曾经无知的这么想 风车在四季轮回的歌里它年年的悠转风花雪月的诗句里我在年年的成长%20流水它带走光阴的故事改变了一个人就在那多愁善感而初次等待的青春发黄的相片古老的信以及褪色的圣诞卡年轻时为你写的歌恐怕你早已忘了吧过去的誓言就象那课本里缤纷的书签刻划着多少美丽的诗可是终究是一阵烟流水它带走光阴的故事改变了两个人就在那多愁善感而初次流泪的青春



遥远的路程
昨日的梦
以及远去的笑声
再次的见面
我们又历经了多少的路程
不再是旧日
熟悉的我有着旧日狂热的梦
也不是旧日
熟悉的你有着依然的笑容
流水它带走
光阴的故事
改变了我们
就在那
多愁善感而初次回忆的青春

今天看了一篇文章，忽然知道了一个道理。其实每个人都有他或她喜欢干的事情，如果你能够干上你喜欢的工作，从一开始的时候，那你就太幸运了。多数的人由于经济的原因，或者其他什么原因不能从一开始就从事自己喜欢的工作。但是随着岁月的推移，最终有一天，他们都会从事自己喜欢的事情。每天充满了活力，因为他们做的事情就是他们喜欢的。不必每天费心干一些他们不喜欢的事情。

来了这里一年了。总是感觉这里没有意思，很boring，缺乏声气。中国人到了哪里其实都是这样一种感觉。因为我们的文化很难改变并理解其他人。中国人是很有进取心的，什么东西都要做的最好。有的时候老外的平静生活对于中国人来说就是寂寞了。

我们这样一代人大多都是独生子女，不知道关心理解别人。更不知道父母的不易。来了这里，接触了很多发展中国家的同学。发现他们家里都有至少两个孩子，或者更多。他们的生活和我们的很不同。多数人家里都不是很宽裕。加上孩子多。他们从小就知道一块肉要分给所有人吃，而不是一个人享受。等到我们长大了，发现什么东西我们不能一个人占有就要努力去争了。老外过的是一种十分平静的生活。因为他们从小就知道了分享的道理。他们过的很简单。没有什么特别的要求，就是有个稳定和睦充满爱的家庭。可是中国人可能就很难体会出这种简单的爱的含义了。
