Reign of Assassins Today I want to intruduce a movie named Reign of Assassins to you. As usual theme of Chinese ancient times, it represent a story about a fell military art superiors and is similar to "Mr. & Mrs. Smith". Set in ancient China, a couple living in a peaceful town each come to realize that the other is a world-class assassin. The beginning of this story is a sentence from zen buddhism ("我愿化身石桥，受五百年风吹，五百年日晒，五百年雨打，但求此少女从桥上走过"). It is the love expression from one monk to a girl who he has just met once. All plots relate to deep meaning of this sentence and are all connect with love. I like this movie because it contain all basic elements of Chinese kung fu stories. A mysterious assassin organization which is strong enough to kill anybody. A unique skill that every superior would like to fight for. A assassin who flee from the organization. A doctor who can save people from death and change their faces. A monk who master zen and willing to help all life beings. All above these are typical characters in Chinese ancient story. The comment feature of them is hiding their capability deeply. It is an interesting and typical Chinses movie. I hope you enjoy it~! ^^. If you like it too, please let me know~!

new academic year I've just recieved an email from Student Affairs Office which related to online registration. It made me strongly awared of that the new academic year was coming. I expected it sooner few days ago, but I felt more serious after recieved this email because it actually means a real year new for me. I also recived a list of modules I am taking in the next year. There are "English Language and Study Skills III for Finance ","Introduction to Financial Accounting","Principles of Microeconomics","Introduction to Organisation and Management ","Foundations of Financial Computing " and "Mathematical Reasoning Logic and Problem Solving ". I can not wait to get new books. I have read a few books about finance and mathematics. They are very fascinating and made me want to learn more about my major. I am really intersted in it. But I still worry about the coming year. I am not sure if I can study all these subjects equally well. In the past year, I have only two main courses, English and Mathematics. I've gained full marks in math exams but only 65 as total marks because of my poor English. In the coming year, I need to study all courses in English. In order to comprehend that well, much work need to be done. I will spent more time on reading books, again and again. I have to try my best and I hope I can learn more useful knowledge. It will be a hard year but excited. In addition, if I can get scholarship, the financial burden of my parents will be lighten. In summary, the new academic year is very excited but must be hard. I can not wait to meet the challenge.
