You can't say that civilization don't advance, however, for in every war they kill you in a new way.


A BIG DAY 4 SWEEPING OUT the ones who FORGOT SEHUA'S BIRTHDAY!

I had a report for the drama class in the afternoon. the drama was "yankee dawg you die", which i never had time to finish reading completely. but i had to present the report. in spite of my unwillingness to get up out of my cozy warm, where i had been wrapped up whole night like a worm--------------a baby fly^0^. life need to be lived forward. after copying the report yesterday night hastely into usb so that i could print it out in school. the moment waking up in the morning symptoms in your body scientifically manifest the potential disease , which in my case, were shown in stomach and it was intensified when i overstuffed my belly the last night. an apple a day keeps the disease away. i always had an apple as breakfast. after a brief shower and a simple makeup, then i headed for the school, rolling my two already sour legs. it was resembling the winter in china , Korea where i imagined as warm winter. i was wearing thick against the bitterly cold winter wind. i think the position in our school was just in the gut of the wind so colder than in the city. i am in the outskirt of Seoul.

my hands were were numb to move any fingers to work on the keypad. clumsily, i printed the papers out and nailed them into 5 shares for distributing to my other classmates and professor. the hall was alive with students, and thinking about an apple for the class was too beyond enough so i got a "fist rice ball" and a cup instant noodles. seated, ate and read through the papers i cut from Internet randomly and put together illogically. anyway , a Hasty lunch and a hasty class. the earlier part of the class was proceeding with the left of last week"M butterfly". the professor kept asking us a question of message carried in the drama, which i took as a ordinary western married man , who was having love affair with a Chinese fake woman, who was actually a gay and pretended to be a woman, with whom the stupid western man was cheated for 20 years. In one word, the clever love, the stupid desire. oriental ism.

the class was ended with my barely finishing reading my paper. a relief, long breath , i was feeling like a huge burden taken off my weary shoulder.

the rest of my day was living for the big day of sehua, because today in 22 years ago, sehua broke out of her mom's womb and cried out into this crazy world.
they said on birthday , we should call our mom for her labor pain, but i do not agree with this point. mom bear ed us for 10 months and squeezed us out painfully. it was one of the greatest punishment from god for Eve's tasting the forbid en fruit. but the moment the baby was out, they were going to be tortured through the life for the original sin. what is Original sin? am i suffering from it? i could not choose the day i came into birth, but i would choose the day i die at my birthday so there was meet with my first day and last on earth.

we bought a birthday cake for sehua and some fresh vegetables and meat for siabe siabe, as the birthday feast. it was cold outside but for our friend, we were buying things enthusiastically. when we came back room with everything ready, sehua was waiting for us eagerly and cheerfully. she was too happy to close her mouth and we began to cook our dinner immediately. siabsiab was easy to prepare and delicious to eat. all that we need to do was to wash everything and put water into the container with special Chinese sauce and link the electricity.
before long, it was time to put things together into the bubbling water. it was a rich dinner and we were entertaining from eating tasty food and chatting and amusing each other. it lasted from 7 pm to 10 pm and the continuous laughter even attracted other friends over our room.

sehua had a wish for several seconds .....best wishes for her and hope to see her wish come true soon.

no one called her except her sister. she had boyfriends but it was important to know the time sweeping them out , it would be today, her birthday.



Obama, McCain Vow to Work Together
CHICAGO (Nov. 17) - No longer foes but not yet allies, President-elect Barack Obama and John McCain buried their bitter campaign in public smiles and searched for common ground in private on Monday, discussing possible collaboration on climate change, immigration, Guantanamo Bay and more.
The 40-minute session at Obama's transition headquarters, their first meeting since Nov. 4 when Obama handily defeated McCain, was just the latest effort by the president-elect to heal wounds from the long and bitter campaign and seek help from his former rivals. On Thursday, he quietly met here with Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, his toughest rival for the Democratic nomination and now a possible choice for secretary of state.
McCain's meeting with Obama was less furtive, and aides to both men said no Cabinet post is envisioned for the Arizona senator. Obama has said he plans to invite at least one Republican to join his Cabinet.
Like Clinton, McCain knows that returning to the 100-member Senate will impose limits and frustrations after the heady two years of the presidential campaign. For both, a friendly relationship with the new president might open new opportunities in Congress or elsewhere, though they exchanged harsh words with him not long ago.
For Obama, cordial ties to two of the nation's most famous and successful politicians might smooth the launch of an administration confronting an economic crisis and two wars.
Before Monday's meeting, Obama said he and McCain would talk about "how we can do some work together to fix up the country." He thanked McCain "for the outstanding service he's already rendered."
In a joint statement after the meeting, they vowed to work together to reform government and promote bipartisanship in Washington.
Meanwhile, Clinton, who returns to Congress as a fairly junior senator with no immediate prospects for a leadership post, appeared very much in the running for secretary of state. Transition officials said she and her husband, former President Bill Clinton, were cooperating with a vetting process, although there were other contenders for the job.
Bill Clinton's finances and business relationships could pose a conflict of interest for his wife if she became the nation's top diplomat. Since leaving the White House in 2001, he has amassed a multimillion-dollar fortune and built a large international foundation through his ties to corporations and foreign governments.
As for Obama and McCain, they expressed similar views on a number of issues during the campaign, such as the dangers of climate change and a need to ease U.S. dependence on fossil fuels.
