About Listening to Others
Listening skills are vital for interpersonal communication.
Few months ago, I met a guy in an occasional place, we talked to each other and became good friends very soon. He seems to be talkative and have good sense of humor, so we talk to each other a lot. I told him the stories of my hiking experience to ABC mountain, and what I thought about my life and my future.
One day after few months, when we were chatting with each other about sports topic, I said " Do you remember I told you about my hiking story to ABC mountain...?" And he said "What? You've been to ABC mountain?" His reaction made me feel so surprised! I thought I told him many times during our conversations. And the other example is he asked me my opinion about a TV program, and he asked me the same question again after two days! These cases makes me feel really frustrated! I found that he is a selfish guy who never listen to others and just would like to talk about himself!
Listen to others is very important! To be a good listener will not only make your friend feel that you are sweet and warm, but also reliable.

An Horrific Accident in Taiwan
Last Saturday, there was a horrible dust explosion happened in Taiwan, which cause hundreds of people hurt in the accident.
Since June, the temperature in Taiwan reaches around 36 degree every day. Young people are used to go to water park to relax and enjoy the cool feelings. Last Saturday, the water park held a "Color Party", the party was similar with "the Color Run". The organizer will spread color dust on the attendees to make the atmosphere fill with happy and fun.
It was supposed to be a fun activity, but in Saturday night, the tragedy happened. There was a sudden big explosion and lots of teenagers and young people caught fire and got serious hurts. Some of wounded people got more than 90% skin damages.
Some points said that dust will be exploded because of fire, high temperature and concentration and so on. So the tragedy came from the event holder lack of knowledge, and did not stop people smoke there.
The sad thing is those who got hurt in the accidents are most teenagers and young people in their 20 somethings. They will have a very tough and long way to recover.

How to speak like a native speaker?
I'm wondering how to speak like a native English speaker if you don't have that kind of environment? It's so hard for a person that never go aboard for living to speak the second language very fluently, not to mention to speak like a native English speaker.
Is there any one can give me some suggestions?

Woman in Gold
Yesterday, I went to see a movie named " Woman in Gold ". It's a true background story about the famous painting " Woman in Gold " from Klimt. And it's also about one woman's journey to get back her family legacy. The story is talking about courage, persistence, and the Austria history.
The movie director Simon Curtis is a good story teller, and I love the performance of the actress Helen Mirren and the actor Ryan Reynolds, they are really good at attracting audiences form their natural acting skill, and make the film splendid and touching.
I would like to recommend the movie to anyone who loves drama films.

The gap between dream and reality
When I was a university student, I had a lot of dreams. I dreamed to have a great job which can give me a stage to contribute my abilities, let me practice all my creative ideas. Of course, I could earn satisfied salaries through it. I thought that everyone can discuss things with a calm and reasonable attitude. Nobody will have ulterior motives or hurt you in purpose.
Along with I become a senior staff, I found that peaceful and joyful workplace is not exist in the world. Every company has it's own problems. And most employees are unhappy at work, because of their crafty, weird and stupid bosses, the dull job assignments, unfair salaries, and the office politics or conflicts.
Every year, lots of unhappy employees would like to change a new job and thought this would give them a whole new life. Unfortunately, sometimes they will find a cruel reality which is the job you would like to gain might not as good as you thought. The job itself is just as the encircles person in the town wants to go out, the person outside the city wants to come in.
Well, I don't mean to complain about job, I am just realized the gap between dream and reality. Nonetheless, I have to cheer up, be myself, keep calm and fight with the realities. But never change too much purity and kind in my mind.

Tea time in the morning
Everyday before starting my working day, I'd like to have a cup of tea to refresh my brain and spirit. Mostly I drink traditional Oolung tea, but recently I'm so enjoyed the tea I just brought from UK. There are three kinds of brands and tea, Breakfast tea from Whittard, traditional black tea from Yorkshire Tea, and green tea with Earl Grey flavor from Fortnum and Mason. The short tea time always makes me calm and feel so good. It also gives me courage to face the challenge in the all day.
