This blog is partly devoted to the sharing of my learning of the English language (my well mastered mother tongue is Chinese and I am not an English teacher) and its *cultures*, partly to the current significant trends in Canada and in the world, and partly to my own random thoughts and little life. I am not religious, but I am somewhat interested in Christianity and Buddhism, among other personal interests. Welcome. And, have a good day.

Once you have a baby, you feel powerless in front of the strewment of your twenty-four hours, no matter how hard you try and scramble.
Feeding her, bathing her and dressing her, so on and so forth, each of them all takes a good chunk of your time. It's bittersweet in that sense.
Nonetheless, don't get discouraged by my whining here. A kid is a must-have for anyone who doesn't want to risk miserable old-age life and who wants to experience a full family life and its sweetness. Highly recommended.

Being unaffiliated with any particular religion, I'm used to unconsciously linking "freedom" to secular freedom. You know, freedom of speech, freedom of choice, things like that.
However, I stumbled upon the Wikipedia entry on Yonsei University (延世大學), one of the prestigious SKY universities in South Korea. And the web page (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yonsei_University#Christianity) states:
Well, what do "the spirits of freedom" mean in Christianity?
Yonsei University is a school founded on Christian principles and purporting to "produce Christian leaders with the spirits of freedom and truth".

U. Q.'s original intentions of joining J's startup were doubtful, or even evidently dubious.
All the same, if we objectively evaluate the case, U.Q. isn't suitable for a tech startup, furthermore, he's likely not suitable for a startup in any business field at all. Because, he's gotten no growth during the past five years or so, and it's probable that he's got no growth potential in him for the future.
Besides, maybe even more pivotally, things which U.Q. had done and hadn't done brought home to J what sort of person U.Q. is.

Some of RIM's ads displayed on mobile phones seem to be inept.
For instance, one small ad in an Android app reads "Introducing the Playbook OS 2" close to a text icon of "Blackberry Playbook". Period. Well, that one is almost like an antic. What are the product's benefits to consumers, which is supposed to be the message the ad should convey? Gee.
Oscar Wilde wrote the following in his "A Florentine Tragedy": "And the dumb river shall receive your corse and wash it all unheeded to the sea."
I'm not very sure if the adverb "all" describes "wash" or "unheeded".
