Fall has finally arrived, which I am actually not very excited about.
Even though we are already lucky that we don't have to face disasters like storms or tornadoes, like in other states or countries, but I don't like rainy seasons and I hate the cold weathers too.
For me, I hate the cold wind, and I just really dislike the environment that makes me feel tired and sleepy!
The rain especially, really irritates me which reminds me of sad things in the past.
There's no place fun to go to either, and I don't like the feeling of being wet when I am outside like when I am in school.
I tries to be happy and go with the mood, but it is really hard for me.
Everything seems very slow moving, and things are feeling tough to do...
The dark grey sky does not look happy either :(
I wonder why is the weather here so weird this year?
Some days, it rains really hard for a few minutes, and after I get my umbrella out, the sum comes out shining for a while again the next seconds...
My grandmother used to tell me the sky is sad, so it's crying when it is raining, which also makes me sad and wants to cry too...
Especially these couple of days, the rainy days made my days go more longer and feels more sad...
I hope the sun comes out soon, so the weather becomes warmer and my mood would be back:)

CE: Train accident in Shanghai
Reading the world event's that happened in Asia on Aljazeera caught my mind.
What?!! another train accident AGAIN??
One just happened in Wenzhou, Beijing not long ago in July. Two high speed trains collided each other, and four car trains fell off the rail. About three hundreds of passengers were injured and killed in this accident.
This train accident happened in Beijing, China. More than two hundreds of people were injured in this accident, and all of the passengers were very alarmed. But this time, the train accident happened because one train hit another train's rear-end.
Fortunately, no death reports of any passengers were reported, but some of the pictures on the website show some of the passengers were bleeding and were in pain. I feel sorry for the senior passengers and infants because some are not even walking that well, and some are disabled too.
The metro company in Beijing said about five hundreds of the passengers had been evacuated from the trains, and about two hundred forty of the injured passengers had been sent to the hospital. They immediately closed down all the train stations to prevent any other problems occur on that day.
I wonder if the metro company will pay for the medical and injure fees for the injured passengers and innocent ones, since they are just trying to reach there destination, and unfortunately got in a train accident and a lot of them got injured.
The Chinese Government should improve and check more carefully for each trains speed and destination reaches so there won't be such tragic event will happen again in the future.

RE: Alone. In my own world
I like the feeling of being in my own little world, have my music on, and I can express my feeling or emotions. Music is big part of my life, especially when I like to listen to them loudly sometimes.While just reading Ming Suen's blog, Walking around at night caught my attention.
Same here goes for me. I like to have my own little world too.
During the day, I may be active and look happy in front of friends and family, but actually that's not always the real me.
On some nights, I like to sit outside the balcony, where no one is with me and I could just stare at the dark night for a long time. Sometimes, I can sit until the sun has risen again, and my family will find me outside the balcony just fallen asleep.
Night time is probably the only time I can not care of anything, and just drop all my problems aside for a while.
I would have my music on, and follow the lyrics that reads my heart and feelings...
It's the only time, where my tears don't have to hide, and I can express my feelings or emotions that I hided them in my heart for a long time. (But I have to be quiet too because my family is already asleep.)
Another thing that I also enjoy is staring at the dark night, and counting the stars in the sky, where they are staying with me the whole night. A lot of memories will come up to my mind like I am watching a movie of my own life. Then slowly, my tears will begin to shed again. The stars also remind me of my beloved ones and family who I missed. Who they are somewhere far from me, and some I will never see again until I go to the place where they are at.
I believe they can see mee too, watching me grow up and stand on my own feet.

The Meaning of Humanity.
What does it really mean to be human? What is the main goal to live as human?
...This is a tough question. There are no real answer to this since it is a broad question, and there are infinite answers that can explain what a human being is. What is the main goal to be living on earth? To be a human being?
Apparently, Humans are somehow greedy; greed for wealth, greed for power, and greed for their own benefits.
But what is that greed all about?
In my opinion, even though greed is also one characteristic of humanity, the main definitive characteristic of a human being is LOVE. To show love. To give love. and To express love.
Everyone in this world, no matter who you are, needs love.
Why do humans greed for power?wealth? benefits???
People are complex and selfish. It's natural that we try to gain power, so we can live in a better place or situation with our love ones. We tries to give our loves ones more and better of anything when we have power. We tries to buy them anything when we have wealth. We tries to buy happiness, and which hope to bring them happiness. We human beings, also greed for benefits too, for our own personal goods and for our love ones. We tries to make them feel special by having more benefits that can bring them happiness and to show much we love them.
But without love, all the greeds of powers and wealth are worth nothing.
Even though we tries to be fair and nice to people, we humans are selfish. You might not be always selfish, but when something comes that you have to choose from the one or the other, most likely you are trying to save yourself than another person first.
Love can be our main goal to be living on earth, and being human. For example, people cheats on love. Even though monogamous is a part of law, but there's probably one out of three people that will end up having problems in their marriage. It is pretty common now. You might call them a bastard, or a cheater, but is this really so? Have you ever think what makes up the problems? ......
I see and hear people all the times saying they hate their Ex, or saying that they hurted them or something, but is that really true? Did they really hurt you?!
I think of love in a postive way and pretty straight forward. Humans seek for their right ones and tries to find the love that they expect whom to be. And there are no right or wrong in relationships. It is not like all the problems are caused by the opposite side...
Have you ever think why they hurt you, or left you? We humans are probably going to blame on the other person most likely. But dont you think the reason why they hurted you is because you can't give them the love that they want? You can't bring them the happiness that they expect to have when being with you?
This is crucial, but that's just the real truth behind all the lies in love. It is part of life.
Love not only can be marriage or boyfriends or girlfriends, but can also be from our family. Humans need shelters, and a home and a family that can give them support. Support is a kind of love too. It is the most stable love you can probably find because my families will not likely to hurt you.
When I'm down or feel like a failure, I go to the people that can give me the kind of love I need. They will give me the support and encouragement that will get me stand back up and get on my knees again to start climbing . It's not the same love that your boyfriend or girfriend can give you, but it's the love that your family can give to you, for support and structure. No matter how independent or strong, humans wants something that they can rely on sometimes. Families are the kind of love that ensures you are not alone, and they will never betray you. There is always love for you to have when you go for it.
Humans are born with sincerity and actually very fragile. We always expect and want someone that we can fall back on. Our emotions shows everything of a person's real personality, and we can get hurt really easily. Most of the times, it's all because of love. Love is powerful, undefined, and maybe bitter-sweet in some ways.
Love is equal, and undivided. No matter how rich you are, what race you are, or where are you from, love won't be lessened nor increased. It only depends how much you give in, or have you met the right person yet. It doesn't always have to be real relationships, but also showing how much you care for something or someone does makes a difference. For example, doing community services is a kind of way of showing compassion and how much attention you pays to the world and community. Every human being needs cares and helps from other people's, or else the world would be very cold and hopeless. We should reach out our hands to show love to the world, and make the whole world united.
The whole meaning of life is to find love, and love can bring us happiness. I see some old seniors sometimes, still holding hands with their partner, slowly walking and holding each others hands tightly. No matter how slow they walks, no matter how the weather is beautiful or not, they are still holding hands and just in love like back in their young ages. It doesn't really matter if the world is going to end tomorrow or not, they will not be frightened because they already found the true meaning of being a human, and living on earth. Love can hold people together, and we humans are made of love from our parents, and families too.

CE: Typhoon Roke
Disaster happened in Japan again. After the huge earthquake that happened in May this year, now it comes again with the rain.
Typhoon Roke struck the city of Nagoya, central Japan and made more than one million people to leave the city on Tuesday. The heavy rain continued on cutting through past Tokyo on Wednesday. It made transportation really difficult for the citizens there, and affected more than millions of passengers. This is the second biggest storm to hit Japan this month after Typhoon Talas hit western Japan and left about 100 people dead or missing. About two to four typhoons happened this year already. Typhoon Roke left six people dead, and six others missing after the pounding rain.
The rain also caused a lot of trees in Nagoya to fall down, and destroyed a lot of electricity cables. The heavy rains also caused lots of housed damaged, and bursting rivers banks. Earlier this month, Typhoon Talas already invaded central Japan, killed at least one thousands people.
It is sad to hear bad news again from Japan, which they had an convulse earthquake in May, and affected a lot of people and their land. Now the new storms, Typhoon Roke and Typhoon Talas had struck and killed so much people again, Japan will need a lot of help to rebuild and reorganize the things. The land is still recovering and the houses are not all rebuild yet. Some people are still trying to rebuild their home, but now rain has made big changes again to the progress they've built.

RE: Cry Baby
Crying feels good when you want to let personal thoughts that no one knows, out of you. But it's usually better to cry in private because you wouldn't want people to start getting wrong ideas.As I was looking though other classmates's posts, I really agree with Bridget Kim's Crying doesn't always makes you a baby post.
Its really natural for girls especially to cry. Its just human nature, and we all have feelings. I seriously doesn't get why how some people calls others a "cry-baby" when they are crying. I mean, come'on! It's not like you've never cried before! Why do you have to make a comment behind people's back when they are feeling down?!
It comes to a situation for me once when my tears starts to come out when the teacher asked and consoled me about the lose of my family. My tears just starts to fall down the minute she asked because I didn't want to think about it. I don't blame the teacher because I know she's just showing sympathy and caring for me.
I went back to school the next day feeling not too happy about it, since I just lost a precious family member, and I hear this person behind me "whispering" in a loud voice, saying " gosh, why is she crying?... Grow up already!"
Seriously, that's just not helping at all! I mean, SHUT UP and MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS!!!!
I don't want to be mean and I am usually a pretty nice and calm person ( I should say), but I just really want to yell at them at that moment!
Free: Finally its Friday!!
YAY!!!
Its finally Friday after this long week that felt like years for me, and the weather is sooo hot!
I waited for this day since Monday since I had different tests in some classes, and it went so slow I felt like each day is doubled.
But I had a great day today, and Thank God its Friday!
(Today is also the first day of Autumn, so I guess the hot weather won't last too long any more.)
In my first period English class, Mr. Sutherland asked everyone to make collages that will fill up the room since its like empty and plain. It is a pretty fun thing to do and, I find it pretty funny too.
I made a small A6 collage, with ripped out pieces of letters that makes the word "Sutherland". While flipping through pages in the magazine, I found a picture of a little baby wearing the same kind of duckbill hats that looks like Mr. Sutherland's. The baby reminded me of Mr. Sutherland xD
I find it pretty interesting too when flipping magazines, and at the same time trying to cut out all the letters for his name. Some people also made pretty cool collages too, and I think everyone had a fun time.
We also got the whole class together and took a class picture together.
I am also excited for the weekend since I'm going to do community service with the Build-On club at San Francisco, and it's the first time doing community service with Build-On.
I hope it the weather won't be too hot tomorrow...
