Vizards have finally shown up





After waiting and waiting, the vizrds have finally shown up to stop Aizen. At this moment, most of the captains have been injured by the top three Espadas. However, Aizen still looks clam. Did he expect that Vizard would come?

Before this moment, the battle between Shinikami and Espada have last for 40 episodes. Shinikami have defeated those arrancar easily, but they were shocked by how strong the top three espadas are.

The number three espada, Tia Harribel, has the ability of controlling water. Although she was against the 10th division captain Hitsugaya Tōshirō, whose ability is to control water into ice and use ice to attack, she was not hurt by Hitsugaya's most powerful attack--Ice Heaven Hundred Flower Interment(The ability opens up a huge hole in the clouds through which a large amount of snow falls down on to his opponent. Whomever the snow touches begins to sprout ice flowers all over, which instantly freezes them in a pillar of ice).

The number two espada, Barragan Luisenbarn is a muscular old man who use a huge axe as his main weapon. When he released his axe, he became a . His ability is to age and deteriorate everything around him. He also has strong spirit force to defend himself from any attack. Even the 2nd division captain Soifon used her BanKai Jakuhō Raikōben(Hornet Thunder Whip, its a huge missile), she could not lift a finger of Barragan.

The strongest espada, the number one, Starrk has the ability of shooting Ceros from his guns. He can shoot 1000 Ceros at once. He and anothe arrancar Wonderweiss defeated the 8th and 13 th division captains Kyōraku Shunsui and Ukitake Jūshirō.

Now on Shinikami side the only two captains still standing are 1st divison captain Yamamoto Genryūsai Shigekuni and 7th divison captain Komamura Sajin. Sajin is definitely no match for the top three espada. Yamamoto captain is also the captains' commander, but he can't fight against three espada together.

At this very moment, luckliy Vizards have finally shown up. I guess their purpose is not to help those Shinikami, but to make revenge to Aizen. Aizen's ability is using illusion. Let's see how they can overcome his special ability.

Women are wired differently


I have read through the book Double your dating and watched several related videos. I practice the techniques from the book everyday. I feel it really make sense in real life for communicating with not only women but also men. Through my observation, women and men are really different. For men, the two different questions what do men want and what do men response are not much different. For women, these two are way different.

A world without thieves


A world without thieves is a great Chinese movie. It discussed the moral consciousness of today's Chinese society.

Wang Bo(Andy Lau) and Wang Li(René Liu) are a couple of thieves. They happened to know Sha Gen(Wang Bao Qiang) who is a construction worker on a train from Tibet to inland. Sha Gen carried 60,000RMB with him. He is a young idealist person and believes that there is no thieves in this world. In order to let his dream goes on, the couple fought against the other group of thieves on the train. In the end, Wang Bo was killed by the head of those thieves Hu Li

Se7en


I am a big fan of movie. Recently I downloaded and watched some old classical movies. One of these great movies is Seven. This movie was so successfully, because it had all the elements of a great movie should have. The director David Fincher is a genius of making dark and stylish style movies. Morgan Freeman acted like an old, cool, and wise guy . And off course, the handsome guy Brad Pitt is favored by most females. However, what I like the most is the story of this movie.
















In Christan, Seven represents seven deadly sins which are lust, gluttony, greed, sloth, wrath, envy and pride. The whole story is about two detectives, Detective Somerset(Morgan Freeman) and Detective Mills(Brad Pitt) investigate a series of murders made by a extreme religious killer. The killer kill seven people one by one according to seven deadly sins in seven days.

The first victim is a fat man who eats too much every day to even walk out of his house. His death represents gluttony which means over-indulgence and over-consumption of food. He was forced fed with spaghetti. And his stomach was kicked by the killer and was burst.

The second victim is a defense lawyer who is rich and famous but has a bad name of defensing for corruption and criminals. The killer pointed him with a gun and asked him to cut a pound of his body for his sin. After his death, the word "Greed" was written on the floor of his room.

The third victim is a drug dealer was bound to a bed in his own apartment. When he was found, he was still alive. His hands was cut off and he was suffering mental deterioration due to over injection of drug.

The fourth victim is a a young woman, a prostitute. She was found dead in a room with "Lust" written on the door. An extremely horrified man who was also found in the same room told the two detectives that he was forced by the killer at gunpoint to wear and use a special device. It was a strap-on dildo attached with a blade. He was forced to wear it, rape and kill the girl.

The fifth victim is a pretty model killed due to "Pride". Her nose was cut off. She was given a choice to suicide with sleeping pills. The word "Pride" was written with blood on the wall of her room.

Till here. It looks like the two detectives will keep on searching, find out who is the killer, and capture him. To their surprise, after the fifth murder, the killer, whose name is John Doe, went to the police station and turned himself in. Policemen was surprised, because he had only killed five people. They was wondering if there would be two unfounded dead bodies. John Doe requested to lead Somerset and Mills to the desert outside the city. The two detectives took John to the location he requested. And at 7pm Sunday(The 7th day of that week) a postman delivered a package to them. The head of Detective Mills' wife was put in the package.John Doe killed his wife, because he admired(Envy) Mills' family life. Mills then got angry(Wrath), shot him down ,and was taken away by police.

What makes me like this movie is the meanings behind the story. In the movie, each victim was not treated as human being. I was wondering how can a man think out such bloody ways of killing people. The killer, John Doe is a well educated man with enough income. In the last part of the movie he explained his purpose in the movie. He believed that murders as a way of showing people what the world is to punish the wicked. He wanted everyone to remember and admire for what he had done. That's what he talked to Detective Mills in the movie:

David Mills: Wait, I thought all you did was kill innocent people.
  
  John Doe: Innocent? Is that supposed to be funny? An obese man... a disgusting man who could barely stand up; a man who if you saw him on the street, you'd point him out to your friends so that they could join you in mocking him; a man, who if you saw him while you were eating, you wouldn't be able to finish your meal. After him, I picked the lawyer and I know you both must have been secretly thanking me for that one. This is a man who dedicated his life to making money by lying with every breath that he could muster to keeping murderers and rapists on the streets!
  
  David Mills: Murderers?
  
  John Doe: A woman...
  
  David Mills: Murderers, John, like yourself?
  
  John Doe: (interrupts)A woman... so ugly on the inside she couldn't bear to go on living if she couldn't be beautiful on the outside. A drug dealer, a drug dealing pederast, actually! And let's not forget the disease-spreading whore! Only in a world this shitty could you even try to say these were innocent people and keep a straight face. But that's the point. We see a deadly sin on every street corner, in every home, and we tolerate it. We tolerate it because it's common, it's trivial. We tolerate it morning, noon, and night. Well, not anymore. I'm setting the example. What I've done is going to be puzzled over and studied and followed... forever.

Lust, gluttony, greed, sloth, wrath, envy and pride. These seven sins do exist in this material world. And no one can escape from these, even a detective(Detective Mills) who represent justice and equal fell into the trap and became a man with wrath. That's the nature of our world. We are living in an imperfect world. But the biggest sin is not anyone from these seven sins. The biggest sin is to judge the world in one's own belief, just like what John Doe did in the movie. Wolf will eat sheep, if it feels hungry. But man eat sheep with reasons. In the movie, Detective Somerset(Morgan Freeman) said "If we catch John Doe and he turns out to be the devil – I mean, if he’s Satan himself – that might live up to our expectations. But he is not the devil, he is a man. " Sometimes human can really act like the devil.

River crab is grass mud horse stone desert


River crab is grass mud horse stone desert. I guess none of you have read this strange sentence before. I invent it. Only people from China can understand it.

"River crab" means the type of crab lives in river. In Chinese, it's "河蟹" which has the same pronunciation of "和谐"(harmonic).

Grass, mud, and horse in Chinese are "草", "泥" and "马". "草泥马" has the same pronunciation of "操你妈"('Fxxx' your mum). Stone desert in Chinese is "戈壁" which has the same pronunciation of "个逼"(pussy) This sentence means "Harmonic is like Fxxx your mum's pussy". Obviously it is a rude word to say. However, I posted this on my account on Xiaonei today(www.xiaonei.com is a Chinese website similar to facebook, which is quite popular in China)

Today June 4th is a special day. I believe most people in this world know what happened in Beijing on the same day twenty years ago. The fact is nobody want that to happen, but similar issues happened in different countries again and again(Bonus March, Spring 1932; Kent State Shooting, 1970; Greek police shooting, Dec 7th 2008). The June 4th issue was serious, because it was the first time Chinese government handle this kind of issues. The government at that time was lack of experience. They wait almost two month until there were so many people gathered in the square and there was no other way to let them leave. Although some people criticize that the government has no democracy, I believe things need to be change gradually. However, it is sad that some real problems was not solved much. The biggest one is the freedom of speech.

Recent years president Hu always mention that the government is trying to build a harmonic society. What I have found out is the true "Harmonic" means blocking all the unwanted voices. That's what I have found out today.

This morning one of my friend post a status on Xiaonei(www.xiaonei.com). Her status was "It seems today is an important day, but why?". I replied "Today is June 4th". Once I clicked the "Comment" button, a new window pooped out. It said "It is not allow to post any porn or political sensitive comments". Then I replied in an indirect way "Today is 42 divide by 7, and 20 divide by 5". To my surprise, even this comment got blocked again. Later on I figured out I should avoid using number 4 or 6(both Chinese and English form) in my comment. Finally my comment "Calculate 58 divide by 9, take the integer result and remainder" got passed. I was really angry of this way of blocking people's comments. That's why I changed my status to "River crab is grass mud horse stone desert". It is an indirect way to express my anger.

Double my dating?


I am not a person who totally ignore women in my life. However, I always make friends with women but not having relationship. My belief is the most important thing for myself is chasing success. Once upon a time an European Judo champion, Winfred Holtzen, said his goal was flame and glory. I think he and I are same type of people who seek success. But he has normal life and knows how to talk with women. As I've grown up, I found almost all my former classmates had gone through some relationship matters. I am just an exception. I've found it is hard to change myself. Once I am in study mode, I wish I can be the best. And that's why I got myself over stressed in my semester in NUS.

Before I left Singapore in August, I thought this exchange semester would be a real good period to let me change my mind a bit. After I came here, I tried to live differently this time. In the first two weeks, I danced two times with other exchange students in the student's club on campus. I learned how to shake my body in club. I also learned how to cook some simple dishes. One day I called my french friend Franck. He was an exchange in NUS. And he is very good at hooking up with girls. When I told him that I was in Denmark, he said"Man, Denmark is a wonderful place, you should enjoy some blonde girls." I knew that his favorite was blonde hair girl all the time. Actually I am OK with all races, even African.(I don't know why a lot of Chinese think dark skin is ugly.) Then he sent me his secret bible, a book named "Double your dating."

From a mathematical point of view, I would not change after reading this book, because my dating in the past is zero. In math, zero times two is still zero. Anyway, I just started reading the book and thinking how to change myself a bit.

But after all, I found those suggestions from the book and my friend were strange. For example, man need to use gel and perfume in order to attract women. I think using these two things is good to keep a good image, but I'm not sure whether it works for attraction. One advice from my friend is I need to wear Italian shoes, but I think those kinds of shoes are expensive for me. I still like Converse and CAT, since their shoes last longer. I also don't like hip-pop style which usually requires white basketball shoes, because I don't play basketball.

I think it is hard to change myself, isn't it. After having a training with world champion in Holland, my will of working hard towards success is even stronger than last time. Maybe that's the human nature that everyone has their own path. Yes, I do share some value with Mr Winfred. Anyhow, we are not 100% same.

More Choices



After living here for almost 5 months, I found Denmark is a quiet beautiful place for living. Salary for bachelor degree holders is very high. They can earn about 6000 Singapore dolor per month. I visit my friend Rune's home last week. His father was an engineer. He has a 180 square meter house with a yard. I can never an engineer in Singapore can have such a big house. Driving 10 minutes from his house to north will reach a beach. There is also a large area of forest in that town. I really like the environment here in Denmark. That's why I told Mr Blackstone that I might leave Singapore one day.

I think Singapore is a nice place. Everything runs efficiently. The city is clean. The crime rate is low. The university education is one of the best in Asia. But there are too many places in this world for me to choose. We always try to be better off, don't we? Actually I don't feel I am a Chinese. In fact, it is the other way round that Chinese is one of my characters. Singaporean and Danish are also parts of me. I think Mr Blackstone is right. that it's good to be a citizen of the world.(He is right again? He is always right, isn't he? Sensei, do you feel warm in your heart now?)

I think I should go to United States next time as Mr Blackstone suggested. Then I can watch NBA or NFL in stadium.

10 Radom Things Meme

(1) I like listening Rock songs. I like rock songs from all different countries. Last time I usually follow British rock bands. Now I found some bands from other regions are also quite good.

(2) I like fruit, especially apple. Usually I can eat three or four apples per day. I also like fruit juice. My favorite brand is Florida Juice. I often buy the 2 liter pack. I can finish 2 liter juice in a day.

(3) I like watching NBA. I am a big basketball fan. I started to follow NBA since 1991 which was the year that Micheal Jordan led Chicago Bulls won their first NBA champion. My favorite player is Micheal Jordan. And in 1990s, Chicago Bulls' players' teamwork was extremely good. It was a joy to watch their games.

(4) I don't like Singlish, because I think it is not proper English. I don't dislike people who speak Singlish. I dislike people who take it as "National Pride".

(5) During lectures, I only sit in the middle of the first row, even nobody sits in the second row and the third row. I feel sitting close to lecturers gives me better opportunities to interact with them. By doing this, most professors from Engineering department know me well. I remember once upon a time when one professor was teaching electrical noise, he pointed me and said "Noise is very common in our world. For example, in this lecture there is a lot of noise affecting my speech, but this guy who sits in front gets less noise".

(6) I like comic and animation, especially Japanese adult comic. Currently my favorite comic is Gantz which tells a story of a group of people who use high-tech weapons against aliens. It is a PG-18 comic which include a lot of bloody fighting senses.

(7) I like all kinds of history, history of wars, history of economics, history of technologies....
I think I am affected much by medias after knowing some histories. Recently I am quite interested in the French Revolution. I want to know why a revolution happened in a rich country at that time, how this conflict started, and whether the revolution brought the "justice" or gave more troubles to the French society.

(8) I like news about politics. I think maybe every man on this world share this point with me.

(9) My favorite subject in middle school was physics. I attended two times Physics Olympics competition. Unfortunately, I never passed the first round. I was very sad of my failure for a long time. However, I think it was not a bad thing. Being successful in earlier life does not guarantee being successful later on.

(10) Sometimes I'm an extremely lazy person. I like to sleep 9 or 10 hours per day in winter. So I am not that lazy in Singaproe.
