Crash

Last week, we watched a movie named Crash in my seminar class. It was about discrimination in Los Angeles, and it includes several stories. Two policemen and a couple, a male detective and his younger brother, a female detective and a Korean woman, two thieves and a Korean man, and a Persian-immigrant father and his daughter. The director shows how these groups of people treat each other. I think the movie is amazing because the ending of the movie is surprise to me. I thought some people were bad guy, but they did good things in the end. I thought someone were good guys, but they did very bad things.

Roxina (Movie 3)

Today I watched another movie called Tuesdays with Morrie. The movie was about an old professor called Morrie who was dying from ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis). Even though he was suffering from this disease, he was always trying to motivate people to think about beautiful things in the world. Love, for example, was one of his favorite topics. As he said: " Love another one, or die " . The movie doesn't have an interesting plot, however, it includes many meaningful sentences such as " When you learn how to die, you learn how to live ". In addition, Morrie has a friend who is one of his previous students named Sean. Sean really cared about his professor, and in many situations he provided happiness for him. At the end of the movie, the professor died from ALS. Actually this movie was a very sad movie, and I had no idea why Patricia chose this movie for her students. The reason that I watched this movie was my friend. He was supposed to write an essay about this movie, so we watched it together; moreover, we were crying for 1 hour and half. I didn't like the movie, in sharp contrast, I loved some of the sentences that the old guy used in this movie and I believe that was the reason that Patricia chose this movie for her students.

ourdoor activity

Spring is coming. Do you like ride a bike? This time is the best for you to ride a bike. You can notice surrounding in the town; moreover, you can do your exercise at the same time. When I lived in Thailand, I didn’t like ride the bike too much. I rode it just only in my village, but since I came here, I sometimes rode with my cousin in last spring. Before I didn’t know why Canadian liked to do activities outside, but now I know. I think winter time was so boring for us because we couldn’t do outdoor activities. I think, if you feel boring, riding the bicycle may help you feel better. This is website that you can read rule of riding bicycle in Toronto. http://www.toronto.ca/ems/safety_tips/bicycle_1.htm

Summer Vacation

Hi mates,
Summer holiday is coming with a beautiful sunshine and warm weather.
Would you like to go visit your hometown? These days my parents called me frequently, and asked if I would like to go back. I was hesitated to give them the answer at first due to my financial problems. Firstly, I want to get a part time job in summer, because it is a good season to earn money so that I can pay back for the rental and tuition fees by myself instead of depending on my parents. Another reason is that the plane tickets in summer are very expansive. I do not want to waste too much money. Thirdly, even though I cannot face to my parents and hug them, I still can talk to them online or call them anytime I wish. Thinking of these reasons, I decided to stay here during summer. Before making this decision, I also discussed with some international students and tried to understand their reasons. One of them said that he must go home once a year. Others explained that living in Toronto is very boring so that they have to go back and visit their old friends. How about you?

....... movie - a love story

Behind every great love is a great story!!! “The Notebook” is one of such films that may make you feel so happy and at the same time a little bit sad…… It is a great story
The movie focuses on an old man reading a story to an old woman in a nursing home. The story he reads follows two young lovers named Allie and Noah who meet one evening at a carnival. However, they are separated by Allie's parents who dissaprove of Noah's unwealthy family and move Allie away. After waiting for Noah, who writes her for several years, Allie meets and gets engaged to a handsome young soldier. When seeing Noah's picture in the paper, Allie is drawn back to him. They spent a few days together and she doesn't want to leave. It is evident that they still have feelings for each other, and Allie has to choose between her fiance and her first love.
Personally, I believe in such story when two persons who love each other and sacrifice their life for endless love die at the same time. However, there are some contradictions in this film. First of all, when the old men, who are telling this story, looks through the family photograph album, the husband who always stays near this woman has black hair, but initially the man with whom this woman was in love has fair hair……. Second, the grandchildren, who come to visit this old woman, look like the soldier but not Noah…. :(((( Now I am a little bit in doubt whom this girl has chosen………

An interesing TV program

I found a very interesting TV program named Dog Whisper. This program usually starts at 6 o'clock in the afternoon on Nitional Geography Channel. The purpose for this program is to teach people how to successfully train their dogs. As we know, in north America, a lot of people have dogs at home. They treat them as friends or even family members. Because of this, a lot of dogs are spoiled by their hosts; as a result, people realized that they had difficulty to control their dogs' misbehavior. The program Dog Whisper helps them to solve this problem. In this program, the dog behavior specialist, Cesar Millan who has been called a Dr. Phil for dogs helps hosts to stop dogs' misbehavior through analyzing dogs' psychology. No matter how aggressive or nervous the dogs are, Dr. Millan can finally domesticate them. It is like a miracle. I would not believe it if I did not watch this. The most amazing is that he has never beaten or even yelled at dogs. I like dogs very much and I have learn a lot from this program. If you have a dog I hope you guys are interested in this.

The ideal job

My ideal job? Actually, I have not thought about it yet; however, I like to live and work as a farmer ( my dream ^^). I can do plant vegetables, fruits, raise domestic fowls , so I can sell products from these things. For example, I can sell eggs from hen, or I can take milk from milk cow. Moreover,I like the fresh air of the country side with no noisy sound from traffic. I can sleep on the grass to enjoy the cool air, or I can go fishing that we can not do in city. In addition, I can raise many dogs because I have a huge garden to play with them. Although I study Biotechnology, I hope I could do my dream in the future.
