Beginning of the life ,in the moment, is the life on the fastest way to grow ? the answer is definitely
yes, it is, the baby conceived in the mother 10 months, until birth, which is very mysterious thing, but when education should be start?

Many educators advocate zero years of education, what is zero-year-old education do? that is, That is, from the prenatal education began, Experts say that children's brain tissue to the completion of 3 years old has grown 60%, To 6-year-old has been completed 80%, and little baby in the mother's womb, he would be able to feel the mother's emotions, and can hear sounds from outside, Therefore, the pregnant mother must to be pleasant in live, for example reading more beneficent books, listening to excellent music, and to appreciate the natural ,have nice visits of art, but also a lot of talk to the baby.

When the child was born, also can do more physically contact with baby, such as baby massage, story-telling to him, whisper issued for infant language, should be concerned about and respond to.Doing so stimulate their language and thinking skills, when baby is 3 years old, should be teach about the letter and word, if to teach children read, it’s will can increase the IQ of infants and young children, when children enter primary school, just began to learn literacy, they will never not keep up with who the early childhood started learn literacy and reading, and this is my personal experience.

My Collection ~ An Artist’s Oil Painting by Chang Ying-guang (張映光)
2 years ago, my daughter and I had traveled to Guilin, China, on the road I bought two oil paintings, by China artists Mr. Chang Ying-guang , one of them the theme is Children’s Faces of the Hmong, (
苗族童顏) (40, 80 × 100 cm) and a house in the countryside (50 116.5 × 80 cm), equivalent to about NT $ 120,000, perhaps some body will felt expensive, but I do not think so, I had visited the art exhibition in Taiwan, many China artists, their work through gallery exhibits, prices increased many times.

The Children’s Faces of the Hmong, which painting is a little girl's face, I had relly liked it ,when I first sight to the oil painting, I was deeply attracted ,because the picture of the charm of small girls looks like my daughter, and light and shadow are painting very well, although some people had different evaluation to Chang Ying-guang, but something of art, appreciation the different perspective of each person. For instance Vincent Willem van Gogh painted more than 2000 paintings during his lifetime, but just only to sold a painting, Who will guessed that at the time, following his death, his paintings would have such a big impact the arts community?

What is Beautiful





What is Beautiful
I recently bought a book eslite bookstore, It is a book“A Paris Women's Fashion Bible”wrote by French supermodel who is Lnes De La Fressange ; France Paris, a woman's elegance is recognized around the world. What is beautiful, ancient human quest and exploration for beauty ,also has never stopped.

Person's appearance depends on the arrangement of DNA, natural appearance can only be changed by plastic surgery techniques, even if the conditions to fit in with t the golden proportion, I think that is not enough.


A female or male, have attractive with or without, I think everyone needs to develop own internal and self-confidence, then it will reveal the charm.
In the other, but also need to focus on bearing, conversation, dress, body language, more importantly, to have kind internal.


Lnes De La Fressange said French women do not pursue brand names, and do not care about the age, because each stage has a different beauty, I think that everyone is unique, even plastic surgeons can change a person into a perfect shape, but the beauty of the inner self, must to rely on our own efforts. After all, you and I can not resist the passage of time.

English learning experience in Lunghwa university


English learning experience in Lunghwa university

In the past, learning English, Less of a chance conversation , and often with the Chinese language in the brain to think, then to switch in Englis . I went to Lunghwa University for foreign languages, That is because I am very interested in English, but also want to learn it.
In the conversation classes, can be trained communication skills, but also to enhance hearing.


Feel sorry for the teacher is because my English level is not good, Whenever the teacher in class, ask questions, In my heart really wanted to answer questions, but it can not be expressed in English, so I think that I should be more enhanced vocabulary.

Started school, I would be more afraid to speak English, but I think that does not participate will not progress, teachers use a systematic method of teaching, I think learning English method, in addition to the teacher taught the class to learn, but also spare time to learn, because everyone says, the language must have a language learning environment,many people do not study abroad In Taiwan to create learning environments on their own, It’s also able to learn English very well.

Therefore, in Lunghwa University study a foreign language, It’s just a beginning.

All of you are like me, always feel that time is not enough, God is very fair, whether cats, dogs, you and me, everyone only 24 hours each day.

The world has too many things waiting to be discovered, to explore, and to learn, So in our life, time is not enough , we will need to cherish it.
The research by experts, why children can happily every day, that is because they are growing and  are learning every day .


Many people stop learning after leaving school, I think learning is not confined to the range, people must be to cultivate an interest, to embrace the nature, such as: can learn painting, singing, or join reading groups, climbing clubs...., or to learn the language.

I like learning new things very much, if everyone can love their own lives, and study until old, live until old, I think depression in this world should be less, then will be more fun!
So, embrace learning, let us join together.

Is Marriage the Tomb of Love ?

Is Marriage the Tomb of Love ?
As the proverb saying, marriage is the tomb of love, this sentence is correct or not, this time last year I just out of the tomb of love, the Chinese have a saying : men fear most is the wrong industry, and the women are most afraid of to marrying wrong husband, this saying is very appropriate to me.


Before I married, I was the beloved daughter of parents , Although I am independent but do not pamper. My parents are very affectionate with each other, and also pay attention to the child's upbringing, so they taught us, we should remember that to be upright, do not to be particular about trifle .

More conservative over the years, so women do not have more chance , and of ethical constraints, It will not be promiscuous friend, until they are married just to find both sides there are too many differences in life, I’m regret marriage, at the time I got marriage is not early, but in those days, if more then 30 years old, do not get married, some people , will look at you with strange eyes, so I married.

I just remember in the 10 years of marriage, my life's not good, Because my husband is very concerned about the money , he is male chauvinism, and very relatively stingy to me, he had an affaire last year, so we are divorced, I did not asked him alimony, just hope he burden of two children's school fees, and I also transferred my restaurant to him,. Many of my friends said I was a fool, I only know that by the time I’m very upset, and just want to leave him away, then get a good peace.

So it’s really for me - marriage is the tomb of love.

Reflections on Seediq Bale
This year's event in Taiwan's film industry is the director and screenwriter ,who is WEI Te-Sheng (
魏德聖) and John WOO - producer of the epic filmSeediq Bale, it’s spending NT $ 700 million . The film world premiere held at the Venice Film Festiva (Internazionale d'Arte Cinematografica di Veneziathis yearsold-out audience, when the show ends the audience standing ovation,and up to 8 minutes long.
Seediq Bale describes the 1930 case of " Wushe event"(
霧社事件) Seediq hero Mona Rudao rate of the tribe against the Japanese bully, swear to defend the homeland and the dignity of the tribe choose the, committed suicide by hanging to pursuit of freedom of the soul .




Wushe event, the historical background of the following (from: wikipedia)

During the Japanese rule of Taiwan since 1895, the Seediq tribe of Taiwanese aborigines were forced to lose their own culture and give up their faith. Men were subject to harsh labor and kept from traditional hunting; whereas women had to serve the Japanese policemen and their families by doing the household work and giving up their traditional weaving work. Above all, they were forbidden to tattoo their faces. And these tattoos were seen as the Seediq's traditional belief to transform themselves into Seediq Bale ("real men"). Mona Rudao, the protagonist, witnessed the repression by the Japanese over a period of 30 years.
"Children! On the tip of the Rainbow Bridge led to home of our ancestor's spirits, there is another beautiful hunting range. Our ancestors are all there! Remember, only brave spirits can enter this place, and we can never lose it. My fellows, let us hunt the heads of our enemies, and we wash our spirits with blood so that we walk the Rainbow Bridge to be always with our ancestors."

Mona Rudao said the the number of Japanese even more than the leaves in the forest, more than the stone in Zhuoshui River (濁水溪) , but I have to resist the determination of Cilai Hill but also a firm!

The film is divided into two parts - the full versions in Taiwan, the part 1 is called "sun flag" (The Flag of Sun), and the part 2 is called "Rainbow Bridge" (The Bridge of Rainbow),I really admire the strong willpower and skill by director Wei, his under the situation ,shortage of funds, loans and fundraising around, but to complete the film, His efforts just want that the Taiwanese aborigines of this forgotten history can be re-understood , it is not only inspiring, but also taught us how to attach importance to our nation's culture.

Who are the prime role play actors, the play only three languages​​, Hokkien, Japanese and Sediq, although not a professional actor, but also played better than professional actors , The film onto the world, also let other countries can be understand the Formosa Taiwan and have such a history, and also has such a great talentand ability to to shoot good movies.

To directors WEI , actors and staff to pay tribute.

My daughter was very fond of reading, therefore, myopia are quickly to increase , doctors said children will read at least to university or institute, so in adolescence we must take care to control of the degree, until the age of 18, the eyeball will have shaped we just can be assured.


So under doctor's advice, I bought the vision shaping treatment glasses for her , it is very expensive, worth thirty thousand dollars, Its principle is that when you are sleeping at night, if you are wearing the glasses , It will correct your eyeball, until the next morning, you drop it downYou will maintain good vision all day without glasses. the year average rate of myopia, will only increase about 50 degrees.
My daughter's classmates started a few years ago wearing this glassesshe felt very good results, so for my lovely daughter 's vision, I think it is worthwhile to do.
Very high proportion of myopia in Taiwanese schoolchildren, this kind of vision shaping treatment so well, but Taiwan is only one qualified import, is now so well-developed science and technology, and market demand is such a large, the government should think about it -how to take care of people's vision, and should also let it to be universal, because a pair of glasses minimum worth thirty thousand dollars ,it’s really expensive!

I remember when she was born, just like a small monkey, but particularly loud crying, because I have breastfeeding to 18 months, So in her 2-year-old had never seen a doctor, and did not bring me any trouble.

In the fetus, I applied prenatal education care, when she was slightly grown, I to carry her on the back and talk to her all the time, when I was doing housework. And I am often telling stories for her, her memory is particularly good, I remember when she was two or three years old , as long as something can not find at home , just ask her, she would find out for you. When she was 3 years old , I began to teach her to recognize words, more than 4 years old she already can be finished a story book alone, and not use the phonetic symbols, in the first grade she already can read the  newspaper , so her temperament is very stable, at the time if I take her go out for business meetings, just give her a book, she did not quarrel nor trouble.
She is now a 8th grade student, we are very closed, before she went to school every morning, she will to kiss me and hug me in my bed. Every time when I watching her studying hard at midnight, I feel very distressed, I know her goal is to enter a good school, then let her grandparents and my feel at ease, because she knew her father and I divorced so she is more sensible more cleverest.


I hope when she grow up, will be finding a good husband can have the ability to take care of my baby ,this is my biggest wish for her.

Gourmet notes~ The Angel Hair Pasta

I like delicious food, and did not distinguish between Chinese or Western, as long as one has time, will be around to eat with friends.


Sometimes, the food program or through the introduction of newspapers and magazines, will eat the good food, but sometimes, exaggerated the food of the media.

I recently passed Changan East Road, I saw a pasta restaurant, They specialized in selling pasta, they specialized in selling pasta, and only use that Angel Hair. In their walls covered with graffiti and signature of the customer, In front of their stores, also posted a winning photos and magazine reports, so I went to eaten with my younger brother, because he is very likes to cooking, so everywhere we often eat and drink, we also have been studying how to cook.


Because that the pasta they use is very thin in diameter, which name is Angel Hair 
, so it is not good to control by cooking . We ordered the Pasta with Chicken Breast in Tomato Sauce, the French Creamed Chicken over rice with Risotto, and Macaroni with Crab Meat in Pesto Sauce, it really tastes good.

Because it uses very fresh ingredients , and the sauces are very palatable, and have a good price, so It attracted a lot of office workers and students.
