An Act of Kindness in the Barber's
My late father in his autobiography mentioned that he told the hairdressers in the barber's that they were doing something good for people. Here is his philosophy: Everyone looks better and cleaner after leaving the barber's, feeling happy. Isn't making others happy an act of kindness?
What a beautiful philosophy!

Habit Is Second Nature
All creatures are the slaves of habits.
This Monday noon, when I got to the restaurant where some of my NHSH colleagues and I would have a gathering, I waited at the door for it to open automatically.

Benefits of Fruits
Recently, I've spent a lot of time visiting my father in hospital in Tainan. Looking around at the sick people, I recalled words from a high school principal, Ms. Chou (周麗玉校長). She once said that when we are young, we have to think about what kind of life we would like to lead in old age and live a lifestyle leading to it.

"Qin Shi Huang: The ruthless emperor who burned books" --from BBC
A good strategy to improve reading comprehension is to read in English what we are familiar with. Recently, BBC news has been running articles about key figures in Chinese history. This is a good authentic reading material because the intended readers are native speakers of English. That is, it is written not for a pedagogical reason but to give information.

There will be no women at the helm of China's Communist Party when the leadership is reshuffled next month, but there are many more opportunities for women in today's China than there were 100 years ago. Then the only way to achieve influence was to marry it - and three sisters from one family showed how.

韓企徵才英文標準 比台灣高很多
當台灣大學生羨幕韓國大學生畢業就有平均6萬多元起薪時，不妨也看看韓國企業的英文要求。美國教育測驗服務社（ETS）台灣區代表昨天公布台、日、韓1千大企業召募員工英語能力調查，台灣企業要求多益550分，但韓國企業門檻訂在700分，足足比台灣多了150分。

To Freshman Physics Majors
This afternoon, while flipping through and re-organizing my files, I came across the following article. Fortunately, I found it online just now. Since a few students of mine who graduated in July major in physics, I would like to post it in my blog for their reference. In fact, some parts of it apply to all college students.
Thank goodness that I still keep the newspaper clipping. This reminds me of the book A Perfect Mess: The Hidden Benefits of Disorder.

That Stare...
Up to now, I still can't erase that stare from my mind...
Today I went to Tainan to visit my dad in ICU in the hospital. He looked better, no more painful expression on his face except when the nurse was changing the sticky tape used to fasten the tubes. I kept talking to him and hummed some classical music to soothe him.
