Calvin und Hobbes
Ich vermisse Calvin und Hobbes. Mein Vater hat die Bücher für mich als Kind gekauft und ich mochte die Comics sehr. Es gibt etwas Besonderes über ihnen, eine Art witzige Philosophie, die ich in Peanuts zum Beispiel nicht merke. Etwas das ich als Kind nicht wissen können und sehr cool finde ist, dass Watterson hat die Charaktere nach Philosophen benannt, Calvin nach John Calvin und Hobbes nach Thomas Hobbes. Watterson hörte 1995 auf, die Comics zu zeichnen. Er hat seine Arbeit nie vermarktet, weil er glaubte, dass dies den künstlerischen Wert untergraben würde. Ich stimme ihm eher zu. Und ich glaube, die Comics endeten auf wundervolle Weise.

Perro no dejó de ladrar
Un perro aparentemente sin hogar y bastante inteligente, no dejó de ladrarle a un motociclista que pasaba por allí para salvar a una bebé
A finales del año pasado, un hombre llamado Junrell Fuentes Revilla, conducía su motocicleta por las montañas de la ciudad de Cebu, Filipinas, cuando de repente se encontró con un perro que ladraba y ladraba sin cesar, y comenzó a seguirlo por todo el camino, como si estuviese tratando de llamar su atención.
Al observar su insistencia, el motociclista sintió que el perrito trataba de decirle algo, por lo que detuvo su vehículo y se acercó.
El perro aparentemente sin hogar le indicó a Junrell que debía seguirlo y lo llevó hasta un vertedero de basuras, donde se encontró con una sorpresa. En el lugar había un pequeño bulto en el suelo que parecía moverse, así que él se acercó para ver de qué se trataba.

Umzug
Hello Heike,
Wie bist du? I hoffe all ist gut mit dir. Ich bin endlich in meiner neuen Wohnung! Wann kannst du mir besichtigen?
Ich bin sehr müde aber glüchlich alle is fertig mit dem Umzug. Ich hatte viele Arbeit zu machen diese Monate. Erste habe ich viele Wohnunganziegen lesen un die interessante markieren. Dann habe ich angeruft und Besichtigungstermine vereinbart. Ich habe viele Wohnungen besichtigen bis habe mich endlich für diese entscheiden. Danach, musste ich den Mietvertrag unterschreibt und die Kaution bezahlt. Es its ein bischen teuer aber schöner.

Wann alle ist fertig, habe ich eine Einweilhungsparty geben!!! Die Party war wirklich gut, schade du könnte nicht kommen.
LG, Alex

A Big Ruby
Today, I heard the news that a piece of ruby was stolen in Tokyo. The ruby is four kilograms and its price is three billion yen (about 30 million dollars). However, there is additional information that the police say the ruby wasn't stolen, and a woman who owns the ruby was in negotiation, and she brought it back. The information is complicated and unclear, but I was surprised such a big ruby existed.

Netizens said that "will there be traffic jams in the air when flying?"This is to fly a long distance, is it too late to go home for dinner? But some netizens questioned,"Can private jets fly at will? Not subject to air traffic control?"
On January 26 th, reporters from Xin'an Evening News and Dawan client interviewed Zhang Jixing, the pilot in the video. He was from Bengbu, Anhui province, and has been an enthusiast of flying for more than ten years. The video was taken on a remote farm in the suburb of Wuhe County, Bengbu city.
Netizens discussed it hotly, and the parties clarified that the farthest is only one or two kilometers.
Put on headphones, turn on electric supply, call ground crew, turn on oil pump, engage clutch, turn on horizon meter...... A set of skilled take off process ends and a 6-meter-long plane starts to take off. On January 26 th, the reporter saw from the video clip that the pilot was riding the helicopter alone, taking off on the wide lawn, turning backwards and flying forward. It can also be seen in the video that the plane flies in a wide farmland and lawn, and there are not many surrounding houses.
Once the video was released, it caused heated discussions on the internet. Some netizens expressed amazement and curiosity, "will there be traffic jams when flying home?"It is handsome to handle brake", some netizens also questioned" Is it legal and compliant for private helicopters? Will it have any impact?"Helicopters are too noisy. How do people around you live? There is also a small number of netizens who think"how can these small planes fly 600 kilometers? It must be the blogger to seek publicity"
So, who is driving the helicopter? Can private helicopters fly in the air again? On January 26 th, the reporter contacted Zhang Jixing, the pilot in the video. He explained that shooting the video of flying 600 kilometers home is just a paragraph. "At present, our country allows low-altitude opening, and our small aircraft can fly at a short distance and low altitude within a reasonable range"
As for the hot discussion of the netizens, he further explained that shooting flight videos is mainly for fun. "We often share our daily flight videos on short video platforms, and many netizens come to us to see the videos on the spot. The video of flying home on the internet is actually attracting attention. It's not true to say that."According to Zhang Jixing, the flight departure place is located on a remote open lawn. Usually, the helicopter just flies one or two kilometers, and the flying altitude is less than 100 meters. Most of them are mainly for entertainment.
He used to be a professional racer, and has been flying for twelve or thirteen years.
In the interview, the reporter learned through inquiring short video platforms that Zhang Jixing's personal tags are Zhang Jixing, "teeth brother" extreme sports enthusiast, former professional racer (retired) flight enthusiast. He has attracted one million attention, and a total of 119 flight short videos have been released.
Born in 1977, he has always loved extreme sports. "In 1994, I became a racing driver, mainly based on cross-country motorcycles. In 2020, I became a professional racing driver. During this period, I participated in many large and small competitions in the country and won more than 400 awards. I didn't choose to retire until 2015."
Zhang Jixing began to fly helicopters dating back to around 2008. "Because I love extreme sports, I made some fans through the internet, and gathered together to go to the aviation management center of the state sports general administration for systematic training and studying, such as paragliding, paramotor, fixed wing, etc. Up to now, I have been flying for more than ten years and invested around 5 million yuan."
At present, Zhang Jixing has set up a team of seven people. Those jobs are mainly entertaining flights. "At present, we have two helicopters, which are located on the remote farm in the suburbs, which is convenient for flying on the one hand, and prevents noise from interfering with the lives of nearby residents on the other hand. As long as it doesn't interfere with civil aviation flights, it's carried out within the permitted scope. One of them is the helicopter in the video, which are two light helicopters, weighing more than 400 kilograms and having a body length of more than 6 meters. "At that time, the imported materials were assembled, and the team spent around three or four months assembling them."
Next, Zhang Jixing's team will recruit students for flight training through program registration plan, and continue the flight career they love.

教える
今日は弟と一緒に日本語を勉強しました。実は、弟の日本語は初級です。でも、私の日本語は中級だと思います。ですから、私は先生になりました。それはちょっと怖かったです。日本人ではなくて、文法を教え方はあまり分かりません。でも、弟は日本のゲームが好きですから、本当に勉強したいそうです。オーストラリアには授業は高くて、弟の家に近い学校はありません。「どうすればいいのか」と言いました。先生ではないが、「頑張ったら、弟に教えることができるかな」と思いました。「みんなの日本語」と言う教科書を使ったり、文法を復習をしったら、授業を準備しました。授業は楽しかったです。弟は最初の文法と単語をよく学んだので、嬉しいです。来週の授業に楽しみしています！

Thanks to the virus
I have a very good friend.
He give me a new computer for free.
This is a high performance computer but I only use that to watch videos and typing documents…
Last July I renew my ISP contact.
They give me a high performance router as “free gift”.
In the world nothing is free.
I truly believe the cost of that router is already cover in my contract.
So, even I have a high performance computer and router.
But I never fully use it.
Thanks to the virus, because I am so many free time.
Recently I found some powerful software can really push my computer to its limit.
Now I feel like buy a spot car and drive 200mph.

Teenage should be a colorful stage of life, but the youths of East Asia have to devote most of their time to preparing for the university entrance exam. The situation appears more severe in Taiwan due to the wrong vision of education. Taiwan’s education system has been criticized for being guided by a form of utilitarianism which neglects individual’s personal traits. To “win at the starting line” is far from just a slogan, it’s the reality of Taiwan’s education. For instance, in order to get high scores, training our students much more skilled in every exam has become the final goal of learning, which is also adapting college curriculums to conditions on the job market as well as stimulating the assorted cram schools to flourish more. When the mindset from direction of utility can prompt students eager to polish their resume only rather than obtaining knowledge must result in the consequence of the entire education environment transforming to be a huge supply chain. The students no longer have to be learners but workers. They are employed to support this educational industry, and studying hard for several hours a day is just a way that they work with their labor. The issue of unequal distribution of academic resources also comes from this process. Although Taiwan has tried to tackle this problem with the new curriculum, everything just still remains to be seen.

Un Court-Métrage
Ce film a eu lieu dans le dix-neuvième arrondissement de Paris. Je le sais parce que je reconnais la gare Rosa Parks dans la dernière scène. Il y avait trois copains qui se sont retrouvés afin de se glisser dans le cinéma pour voir le huitième film de « Fast and Furious ». Un des copains qui s’appelait Yacine vient de se disputer avec son père. Il semblait de mauvaise humeur comme son père voulait qu’il trouve un travail. Les copains de Yacine ont offert de plaider avec son père, mais Yacine a refusé en disant qu’ils ne connaissaient pas son père.
Ils ont essayé d’entrer dans le cinéma par la sortie de secours, mais le vigile les a arrêtés, donc il faut de payer pour voir le film. Le film « Fast and Furious » coûtait onze euros, mais il y avait un autre film en noir et blanc avec des sous-titres, qui était moins cher. Les trois amis ont décidé d’acheter les tickets pour le vieux film avec l’intention de griller dans l’autre salle où ils pourraient voir leur film.
Après avoir regardé le vieux film pendant cinq minutes, les copains de Yacine sont partis, mais Yacine voulait rester and regarder le reste du film, qui lui rappelait sa propre relation entre lui et son père. Je pense qu’il a également trouvé le film assez divertissant et émouvant. Après la fin du film, une femme qui travaillait pour le cinéma est entrée. Elle a expliqué qu’elle avait essayé de convaincre son boss de la laisser établir un ciné-club, afin que les clients puissent regarder les vieux films et partager leurs opinions. Yacine a eu pitié pour elle parce qu’il était la seule personne dans la salle. Évidemment, l’idée d’avoir un ciné-club n’a pas réussi. Yacine l’a fait une promesse de retourner la semaine suivante pour voir un autre vieux film.
Pendant ce temps, ses amis l’ont attendu à l’extérieur du cinéma. Ils voulaient aller à McDo pour acheter un « Happy Meal », mais Yacine a refusé. À mon avis, à ce moment-là, il s’est rendu compte qu’il était différent de ses copains et qu’il voulait de rentrer chez lui et se réconcilier avec son père.

Jan. 26, 2021 Different education systems
There are many different education systems in the world. Today, Alex gave us a presentation about the education in Canada and Japan. One thing that was surprised me was that the number of students in a classroom of a kindergarten is more than the number of students in a classroom of an elementary school or a high school. I don’t know if it’s the same in Japan, but it’s the opposite in China. It was maximal number of students in my son’s kindergarten was 30 in a classroom, and there were 2 teachers and 1 child-care worker. The maximal number of students in a classroom of his elementary school was 35, and it was 40 students in a classroom when he went to grade 6 which is the middle school. And I think it would be 50 in most of high schools, even more. Maybe we think when children grow up, it will be easier to manage them. Canadians might think it on another way. I believe that other places have their own ways too.

La quinta montaña
He pasado el último mes leyendo "La quinta montaña" de Paulo Coelho, pero creo que lo voy a devolver a la biblioteca porque no me estoy tan sumergida en el libro para querer leerlo cada noche. Leí "Antes de ser libres" y "La vida secreta de las abejas" sin problema y aprendí mucho vocabulario. Creo que los disfruté porque podía imaginarse como la protagonista y, en el caso de "Antes de ser libres," me gusta mucho aprender sobre la historia y cultura de otros países.
También tengo prestado "Why Buddhism is True" y tal vez intentaré leer esto, aunque preferiría que la biblioteca tuviera una copia en español.
De todas formas, he decidido anotar el número de páginas leídos de cada libro para tener una mejor perspectiva sobre lo que he leído al fin de año. El año pasado no podía terminar algunos libros (aunque leí más que la mitad de ellos) y no los sumé a mi lista de lectura, pero creo que debería haberlo hecho.

我最喜欢的一位名人
这个星期的课本讲过鲁迅。我记得在本科时，我学过很多关于鲁迅的知识。如果你学习中文，你一定会听起他的名字！我对鲁迅有很大的影响。我大学教授之一，算是鲁迅的粉丝。我也上了一个“鲁迅作品的课程，“当时我的阅读能力还不好，所以我读的英文的版本。这个单元的写作话题是：”你最喜欢的一位名人“。
我最喜欢的一位名人是邓丽君/Teresa Teng。其实，她是我妈妈最喜欢的歌手，不过我从小到大都听过她唱的歌。我特别喜欢她的《甜蜜蜜》《月亮代表我的心》《我只在乎你》等等。我长大以后才知道她的中文名字：邓丽君。她出生于台湾。那时台湾是被日本帝国主义化，因此每个人在当时必须学习日语。她会说很多语言和方言，包括普通话和日语，她一共会说和唱五六门语言和方言。除了这种事以外，我不知道关于她具体的知识。我觉得我算是她小小的粉丝吧。
我认为她在各个国家都会受欢迎。我觉得邓丽君不是一个平均的歌手。这么多年以来，她和她的歌还对许多人很重要，她留下了很大的影响。我一听邓丽君的歌会形象地想起/想起来我小时候的时期。
你们也喜欢邓丽君吗？喜欢她的哪一个歌曲？

GameStop
GameStop é uma loja de jogos baseado em Dallas, Texas. Na ultima década, o GamesStop teve grandes problemas. Muita gente compra jogos online, sem fazer compras em GameStop. Além de ficar cada vez mais perto à falência, as ações da empresa são sujeitas à venda a descoberto. O valor financeiro de GameStop tem sido aumentado de uma forma inesperada.

Schadenfreude
Opino que todos nosotros lo hemos sentido. Si lo hacías mientras veías una película o andabas bromeando con tus amigos, no importa. A algún de tiempo, nos hemos reído de la humillación o dolor de otros. Y eso es lo que Schadenfreude significa. Es cuando te alegras o reís de la humillación, el dolor o la vergüenza de alguien. Puede ser tu mejor amigo o el desconocido en eso video viral. Aunque sea malo, no lo podemos controlar. ¿Cuántas veces te hubieras intentado parar cuando veas estos fracasos virals en Youtube? Si has intentado, sabes que no es lo más fácil. ¡De hecho, si eres como mí, es uno de lo más difíciles de hacer!
Puesto que todos nosotros sabemos que es malo, ¿deberíamos hacerlo algo? Pues..., no sé. Ya que no es decente ni amable, parece razonable que deberíamos reprimirlo. Sin embargo, ya es parte de la cultura popular, al menos en Estados Unidos. Las series populares como "Los videos más graciosos de Estados Unidos (America's Funniest Home Videos)" lo usan para hacerles reír a los miradores y levantar los ratings. A pesar de esto, no nos deberíamos rendir. Hemos eliminado muchas cosas que eran parte de nuestra sociedad. Hay aun más que vamos intentando eliminar, como la desigualdad. Al fin y al cabo, no importa nada que se haya arraigado en nuestra cultura, porque siempre tenemos la oportunidad de destruirlo.
