写作文

今天突然回想起自己以前上学的时候写作文时的痛苦。我觉得写作文很可能是上学过程中最让我憎恨的东西之一了。

在小学的时候呢,要不是写什么“一件有意义的事”,就是写什么“春游游记”,从来没有什么作文题能够真正让我感到有意思。当时为了写这些记叙文,绞尽脑汁的痛苦实在是记忆犹新。等到了初中,我终于慢慢明白了“天下文章一大抄”的奥妙,从此写起记叙文来如履平地。我光在游泳池就救过三次人,钱包捡过若干次,而且都交公了,我当时有个严肃的爸爸,温柔的妈妈,和和蔼可亲的奶奶,我的老师对我像亲人一样亲,隔壁的年轻解放军哥哥对我也是诲人不倦,还经常帮我换自行车轮胎,哈哈,作文题材这么多,我怕谁???

可惜的是,到了高中之后,语文老师大概和政治老师来了个变形金刚般的合体,语文作文和政治变得雨水相容。记叙文被议论文彻底替代,导致所有的文章都有点大字报的感觉,真刀真枪的毫不含糊。我当时写起文章来也是意气风发,经常从政治书上抄点东西来用用。老师自然无法从鸡蛋里挑刺,千锤百炼的政治课本其实寻常人可以批评的?!

现在回想起来,语文真是学得太累了,太多人为的负担压在了它的身上。我真希望我的老师什么时候会出这么一道题来让我们写,那该多有意思啊:“如果你是一个小猴子,你愿意当一只小臭猴,还是小香猴?根据你的选择,任写一篇文章,长短不限,文体不限,但尽量别写错别字。

Is Love Blind? Oh, Definitely.

我发现在我们公司很多头头的办公室墙壁上,挂着各式各样的儿童涂鸦,都是他们的儿子,女儿的作品。说老实话,很多“绘画作品”我都是看了半天才看出这是幅画,至于到底在画什么,那就永远是个谜了。我今天在一个人的办公室里看到的画,直观上就是一个掉在白纸上的鸡蛋,黄黄的白白的一大滩,非常有让人过目不忘的力量。

我这才真正意识到什么叫“爱是盲目”的了。好多时候我都是一边看这些画,一边就肚子里暗暗嘟囔:“这算什么嘛?老在办公室里放这些东西吓人”。这些作品,也就只有是儿子或女儿画的,才会有人满心欢喜的贴出来。我估计在很多父母的眼里,梵高的真迹可能都比不上自己孩子的信手涂鸦。

其实反过来想,谁又不是这样呢?当我们透过“爱”的有色眼镜看这个世界的时候,一切都变得那么美好。呵呵,这样不挺好的么?

Golf Time!!

I always like golf. Using an iron stick to hit something voilently definitely sounds appealing to me. However, ever since I took a golf class in my senior year in college, I never got a chance to play the game in any consistent way. Finally now I have a car and the weather is wonderful, so this is GOLF TIME!!! I will try every hard this summer to improve my game. Watch out Tiger, I am coming!!!

I went to the driving range with a friend yesterday and played slightly over an hour. It was so much fun. I felt really good when I made a solid contact on the sweet spot. But overall, I was rusty. I couldn't handle the driver. Slicing is still my big problem. I have to work on that. The good news was that I used 7 iron all right. Irons are always a lot easier to use than drivers. Hopefully by the end of this summer, I can get my stoke back and manage to use drivers, irons, pitchers, and putters effectively.

Woods, I guess you can still keep your green jacket......... for now.
