2009.04.14 Chinese's View on History

Nice talk with Ozgen. I find something interesting, about people's perspectives on history.

China is a special country. We have a very continuous record of 5000 years history.
Some countries may have a longer history but do no have that long written record.
Some countries, before they settled down, they were nomads.

In short, not every country values the past as high as China.
Learn the lesson from the past, then move on towards the future. That's all.

As a Chinese, I love histories. Not only the history of a nation, but also the history of myself.
Time to move on? I feel I'll become a nomad. No need to remember the trivia in the life.

2009.04.09 Mei Mei


Thanks Laura.
Thanks Nicole.
Thanks Summer.
Thanks FIVER.
Thanks Dad & Mom.

Every time my emotion lost control, soon later I felt I was getting rid of something. I don't know what I lost, but the pain is eased too.

I'm moving on.
Don't worry about me ^_6, although I may need several more weepings. I've got a stronger mentality.

I'm a lucky girl, I still have so many friends around me. Everyone has its own problem, but not everyone can have this asset.

I Ching

The photo is one of the works of Huang Yong Ping in his exhibition at Vancouver Art Gallery, 2007. (I missed his exhibition...I was in Vancouver at that time, now I regret)

I'm reading Huang Yong Ping's "House of Oracles". That's one of the things I love UBC that much - UBC's library is real, I can have the books I want in hand. To be honest, I really hate reading from the computer screen.

Last Friday, Professor Tsao introduced the installation work "Dialogue" by Xiao Lu. That is an interesting piece. She created this meaningful work in an extreme emotional trauma.

Today I re-encounter the book, I Ching, or "Book of Changes", is also a book of changelessness, in terms of its ageless classic.

I love the scenario that Huang usually uses I Ching to solve his hesitation or indecisiveness. His photos are so cute.
