Two of the so-called "adventure experience" in my life:

 

Last year I worked with a Spanish journalist, who wanted to do a report on the Qianmen Hutong area, which was being torn down at that time.

 

We managed to get into the already forbidden and en-circled area. Walking in the deserted smally alleys, seeing the empty barber's, grocery stores, courtyards and Beijing opera theatre, I felt that something so originally and typically Beijing was gone. People who had lived there for generations had to move out -- of course, in some way it was good news for them, the living conditions in Hutong were really bad, but now they had the compensation and new apartments to live in. Still, I felt sorry for them -- something was lost, perhaps forever.

 

And of course, the reporting process did not go well as he had planned.

 

One year later, I worked for a Chinese company which distributes luxury and designer brands for foreign fashion companies. They received an Italian guest in Beijing and wanted to show him the location of the store that they are going to open. Qianmen avenue is the place where the sotre is going to be, but still under construction. An employee from the project developer guided us into the place which has not been open to public yet. Wearing a helmet, we saw this pedestrian street which is said to be the Chinese "Champs-Elysee".

 

Suddenly I realized it was exactly the place I visited one year ago. But now, it has been turned into a fancy avenue with a mixture of European style and traditional Chinese style architecture. The developer was proudly pointing to us where all the luxury stores are going to be (no need to mention the names, I think you guys could easily guess), and I couldn't help wondering how the former residents would feel if they see that their old houses had been rennovated into a luxury store, in which even a skirt would probably cost them all the income of a year...

 

 What has been done can't be reversed. The past is gone, and no one knows about the future.

 

BTW, something off the topic: I believe China is the greatest country, and I believe Beijing Olympic Games are going to be awesome, wonderful, marvellous... (just fill the blanks with all the positive adj. that you can think of !)

 

We  China!

有时候呢，我们这一类人是比较蠢。总以为我拿人当朋友、真心待人，别人也会这样对我。

总是得多碰几次钉子，多给人几次机会，多听听别人的意见才能彻底灰心丧气。

其实我挺不好受的，为什么我以为可以信任的人会这样呢？我也不愿意看到我曾经看重的人一次次让我和朋友们失望，一步步的在我心里的位置越降越低，

 

有些事情，我以为人早已不介意了，早抛到脑后了，或者早就随着一个拥抱或一杯酒“一笑泯恩仇”了，结果人家还记着呢，还念叨着呢。

有句话说的好，道不同不相为谋。

没事，这世界上也不是非得谁和谁好，对吧？

 

这么多年大家都说我好脾气，其实我脾气大着呢，没准儿下次就直接暴风雨了。

 

奉劝各位男士，大度一点，比如有女生骂你损你，最好的态度就是一笑而过，别跟小肚鸡肠的女子计较。给女孩摆脸色看可不好。

（我承认有时候我是够小肚鸡肠的，我很想潇洒的一笑而过，可有些话还是不吐不快）

最后再奉劝各位单身男士，女孩子可不是靠耍嘴皮子就能追到的。

 

本文纯属发泄，请勿对号入座。

又郁闷了，于是又大吃了。

两点结论：还是高热量的东西好吃；胃打开了，要收住就难了呀…… = =

 

双鱼常遇到的困扰就是不懂得划清界限，总是心太软，当时不愿意不忍心让人失望，其实往往在后来会带来更大的失望。

岂能尽如人意，但求无愧于心。但有时候不但不能如人意，还有愧于心。

所以有时候讨厌这样的自己，本性的东西，天生的性格缺点，怎么也无法克服。

 

My apology to all.
