Flood in Beijing

   In 2010, I had stayed at Beijing for almost two months, though I didn't get used to the life there(maybe it's my first time to leave Taiwan for such a long time). Its traditional historical sites (such as: forbidden city and the Great Wall) and modern skyscrapers totally truly impressed me. No wonder, it has been the capital of China, the biggest economic over the world.

   Sadly, I got to know this news few days from Weibo, the biggest social network in mainland of China. The flood took its toll on more than 30 people and influenced nearly 20000 people's lives. I have a few friends in Beijing and luckily they and their family are still fine.

   I really hope the disaster would past and the authority would take action as soon as possible.

Fried chicken

"Finally I get the fried chicken!"

I, honestly, was extremely excited while having this. Since I came back from Australia, I had sought any chances to re- taste my favorite delicacy, which is always on my list of the most unforgettable Taiwanese food and did successfully. Initially I was invited to watch the newly released movie called Ted. With limited budget I decided to go out for dinner instead of popcorn provided by the theaters. To much my delight, I found the store right outside the theater!

While I was a university student, I always had this as my dinner though it's said "unhealthy food". It's like the fried chicken sold by Mcdonald and KFC. But it is from different part of a chicken and covered by different sauces according to my experience. And they are the factors of whether fried chicken is tasty or not.

According to a Taipei Times’ report in 2011, Taiwanese devour more than 250,000 fried chicken cutlets each day.

If piled atop each other, they would make a chicken cutlet tower 10 times as tall as Taipei 101, the island’s tallest skyscraper at 508 meters. 

Become an uncle

"My sister gets pregnant."

It is an astonishing news for my family, without any expectation. Since I got this news from my mother a few days ago, I almost have not talked to my sister. The most unbelievable/irritating thing is that my sister considers this baby as a solution to the embarrassing situation between her and her boyfriend's family.  What a PITY.

While I was in Australia, she tried to know what I felt if she got pregnant. And I got ballistic not only to this stupid question but the intend meaning behind this question. Beside, I have told her for hundred of times your boyfriend doesn't deserve you to end up being a wife for him(a couple of reasons), but she gets PREGNANT now!  She follows him rather her brother. Most important, she always regards every boyfriend as her future husband and they broke her heart every time. No wonder i got indifferent to her love romance even they are going to be spouses.

All in all, this situation can not be changed. Only my sister realizes we, people surrounding her, are the ones care her, not hold her back. There would come a happy ending.
