  Have you ever seen a movie called" journey to the center of the earth"? I saw this movie on HBO channel last Sunday , and it is quiet entertaining. My GVO teacher told me that this movie is based on a classic sci-fi novel by Jules Verne in 1864 and this guy wrote lots of sci-fi novels at that time such as "from the earth to the moon", "around the world in eighty days" and so on..

  This movie describe a university professor who believe there are entrances that can go through to the center of the eartrh. So he, his nephew and a beautiful guide start an exciting expedition. They encounter many prehistoric creatures and finally they find the way back to the surface of the earth. His nephew also carry a bag of diamons when they went out from the volcanic mouth.

 I think this movie describes the popular thoughts of our interior earth during the 1870s. But we know that it is impossible to have so many prehistoric animals which still live in the interior earth nowadays. However, this kind of sci-fi movies still satisfy many fans who are curious about the center of the earth and I strong believe that it must have its sequel coming soon.

  What a terrible typhoon! Typhoon Morakot are not only setting a new record of rainfalls in Taiwan , but also ravaging southern part of Taiwan with its heavy flooding and the destruction is still going on now.

  My mon told me that there was a horrible typhoon happened fifty years ago and also cause a devastating disaster at that time. But Morakot seems bigger than it. I think it is Taiwan's destiny, everytime when typhoon comes, the following mudslides, rainfalls, landslides and floodings always hit this beautiful island seriously.And the scenes I saw from TV always shock me a lot. Some villages and townships are flooded by heavy rainfalls, the residents have no way out from the flooded areas. And the police officers are stuck in order to rescue people from mountain areas.

  I hope everything will be ok and Typhoon Morokot will fly away from Taiwan as soon as possible.

  Here comes a typhoon, and we are going to have a day off. Actually, I don't like this kind of day off, because it is quiet boring for me to stay at home all day. But the experiences tell us that sometime a typhoon-based day off means a happy shopping day due to the inaccurate prediction from government. Haha..

  Anyway, I finally can spend all day to retreve my e-mail, watch DVD, clean the mass of my bookshelf and surf the net....

  The day before yesterday, I saw a girl sitting beside me to learn English at GVO. She is such a beautiful girl that I havn't seen for a long time. With black glasses, long hair and a bookish air around her, I have to admit that she is attractive to me. But what can I do...I got married already. So...mmh..maybe I can make friend with her ..just friend!
