7/23/2008 Mind FlashYour mind flashes many times everyday. Yet any one of them goes away if you don't tend to catch it. So here is one of mine: Was watching TV when I came across an English Speaking Contest. Theoretically I am not interested in any form of such contest. As a citizen of a country that is embodied with one unique and 5-thousand-year old culture, I really don't see why we should compete to find out who among a bunch of people speaks best a foreign language. I do hold that language is used for communication only, and any proficiency in a foreign language may deserve compliment but never a prize. And I don't know if it is plain fact or it just rises out of my own ignorance, that non-Chinese-speaking countries do not hold contests to see who speaks the best Chinese, or do they? BUT Pay attention to that BUT coz its really important. Why did I spend the time and forced myself to watch that event? It's because one of the compere was someone I know from long before. I always hear my friends talking how they see her on her show but never have the chance to see for myself. Finally I did it. Watching some show that was not my cup of tea for someone that I would like to meet on TV, now I know how feelings can be divided without mental disorder, hehe. I feel that this blog of mine somewhat takes the form of the movie: From Dusk Till Dawn, of which the two halves do not have any compatibility with each other. Is it the very feature of mind flashes?
