I read this blog entry from student 2.0. This is about inspiration. From deep in my mind I thought about this before and I found two sides. One is saying follow your inspiration and another one is saying look at the reality. Istruggled making this kind of decisions. Should I keep on doing it or not? For example, In textbook or literature book many books tell you to follow your dreams but in reality many things are different. My father always tell me to wake up but in many time I cannot tell the difference of "wake up". At last I think I have to define "wake up" by my self. I think there is no "wake up". It is only about you know what you are doing. If you know what you are doing then you are "awaken" I felt same way as

Should an 18 Year Old Really Know What They’re Going to Do For the Rest of Their Life?
Well, I personally think you do not need to know. I believe that you do not need to know what you going to be in the future but if you know it then that is better. I think for some people it is hard to find what things they are interested doing it. From the Stacy wrote, I think adults have bad stereotype idea that you have to know what to do or you else will not success. Sometimes things are not fast and sometimes your interest will be irrelevant to what adults thought you want to do. I knew a guy he is from Harvard and he study bio- tech but he end up being music DJ. At last I want to emphasize that you still got many year to decide what you want to do. The important thing is to choose the future you like the best.

Cat's cradle and Beach
This is the letter Newton didnt sent out.
To Jonah:
I have something to share with you. Although I was small and I do not know if that could help you, I will just say it.
I remember this is four month before he died, our family went to beach to get some sunlight and feel the summer. My family was still the same as the old days. On that day my father still wear a suit and smoking cigar. As you know my father is those kind of person that except his work, he spent least amount of time to dress him self. My sister was still the same, when we get to the beach she start to putting sun screen and telling me and my brother that we have be careful when we are playing. When I was building sand castle and I saw him talking to him self the whole the time. I remember he said, ” Turtle is swimming in the ocean.” I still do not get why he says that. Maybe he is saying for nothing.
However, I think that is what I remembered. I was just surprised he said something.

Cats Cradle
hmm...
Cats cradle ...it is about cat and it's and cradle ......haha joking
No. from what I have read I think Cat's cradle is a simple book with complex idea. It is a satire book that contain black humors. The book started with a person and he is describing what happened to him self.
I personally think that Kurt Vonnegut is using Jonah to laugh at every religion. In the beginning of the book he write a Christian book but him self is not a Christian. After that he started to tell his religion, the Bokononism. From that I think the religion started to telling a little about the Dr. Hoenikker. Dr. Hoenikker got a weird family. From my perspective the reason he got a weird family is because his personality is weird. Although he isolated and looked cold blood-ed, I think he is just a person that do not follow the society. In his Hoenikkers family newton's mom died and left 3 children. The result of that is his sister is being like mom and his brother got mess up mind. the only normal one is Newton.

Change the world
<<- a Taiwanese doctor 連加恩 Chan - un Lian
Usually, people thought to change the world is hard because you need a tremendous power to do it but I think the idea is preventing people from changing the world. From my perspective, I think to change world is not hard, it just about you want to do it or not. Sometimes, people do not know how should they do it because they do not have a group of people or program that support him/her but I think that is not the problem because I believe that you can change the world by your self. From the animal testing film found by Jack and Amy, the 16 year old guy started a website and gather people to against the people that do not want the animal testing lab. I think that is the thing we should do. It does not have to have a huge power. It should be a little project that similar as a school project.
After the basic idea from my mind about changing world, I want to do something. If I have chance want to go to hospital in Africa to help the people there. For now, I would want to go to hospital and help people there.

New blog "alternative medicine"
I subscribe a blog is about medicine/ health discovery. The blog is about "Sexually Transmitted Diseases."
Maybe, my thought is not related to the blog entry but I think that there are many many ways to decrease the amount of sex. I think the best way to do it is to let people know about "sex".
