Diary: Monkeys On The Highway
Today I read a news that a group of Golden Snub-nosed Monkeys were coming down the mountain to stop cars on the highway. It's not because the environment they living has become better, but feeding food makes wild animals lose their natural fear of people. It adds the possibility of animals be hit by moving vehicles or might try to enter vehicles in search of food. Besides, human foods aren't nutritious enough for animals and may cause serious health problems. Remembered when I was a kid, once I went to the zoo and threw a bag of chips to peacocks to show my love. It sucks. I wish someone would have stopped me back then.

Noch Eine E-Mail
Hi Wolfgang,
ich glaube, dass Du den Befehl „python setup.py build_ext –inplace“ aus dem GIMP Ordner durchführen muss, anstatt vom „Dokumente“ Ordner, um diesen Fehler zu beheben.
Soweit ich weiß, sollte die GIMP-Umgebung richtig sein, um das Programm sein Ding machen zu lassen. Außerdem erinnere ich mich nicht daran, die Programm-Extensions zu kompilieren, daher ist dieser Schritt für Dich wohl auch nicht notwendig.
Gruß

Today is China's traditional holiday, the Lantern Festival. Nowadays in cities, there are fewer activities to celebrate. At least for me, it seems that I have never attended any activities related to the lantern festival or learned about activities related to lantern festivals. However, young people may not be in the same situation as mine. When I was a child living in the countryside, the lantern festival brought me a lot of beautiful memories. When lantern festival comes, it means that Chinese New Year's is completely gone, so we usually celebrate it grandly. We bought various fireworks, firecrackers and colorful lanterns. During the lantern festival night, we set off fireworks and firecrackers, and carried a lantern to go with little fellows around the whole village to have fun. The most interesting thing during the festival in my memory is that you always see someone's lanterns catch fire and burn out. You know what? It's because our lanterns then were all made of paper and its core was a burning candle, so those lanterns were really easy to catch fire. The Chinese lantern festival is on the lunar January 15 th. All the activities include setting off fireworks, enjoying various lanterns, solving lantern riddles and eating rice balls and so on, and all these activities are launched at night.

Reason why I love this school
There are many reasons why I want to apply the pre-master programme in International Business at Munich Business School in Germany. Firstly, Germany boasts a superior education system with many qualified teaching resources and universities. Secondly, Germany owns the most advanced technologies, rigorous academic attitude and international exchanging atmosphere. Thirdly, as a prestigious private university for business in Munich, MBS is not only accredited by state but also by German Council of Science and Humanities. And it has always been offering globally minded, entrepreneurial personalities an inspiring and international academic environment to develop into the responsible leaders of tomorrow. Most importantly, the well-designed curricular and various seminar provided by this programme enable me to lay the solid foundation for my future career path. Specifically, in addition to general business administration and courses in international marketing and international finance, it offers specific focal points like Digital Business Management, International Marketing, and Corporate Strategy & Innovation etc., which gives my studies an individual aspect. Besides, with an interdisciplinary structure, the core modules allow me to work on joint projects with students from the other Master’ s programs as well as exchange ideas and experiences. Moreover, by completing the electives, I will round off my profile and set further individual accents.

One Meter
The other day, I watched the news that a man fell into a hole, which depth was one meter (about three feet), and dead. The hole was in a construction site, so the construction manager was accused of this accident. Because of this accident, I remembered a slogan for safety: "One meter deprives a life." In Japanese, both "one meter (1メートル)" and "deprives a life(一命取る)" are the same pronunciation, so it's catchy. Is there a slogan like this in English?

A Double major and a Double degree
Recently I learned thata double major and a double degree were completely different, I have thought that the both matters were exactly same. If you study the double major, as a matter of fact, you will obtain a double degree at end. If I considered it, It could be understandable for sure. It's a kind of a piece of cake. Actually, to date, I have never met any person who could implement these double major and double degree at a university in Japan. A unversity in Japan is not so flexible like an Australian university. According to an Australian friend, some Australian university offers a student a double major system and a double degree system and would take only five years to implement them. Five years is not long enough to obtain them, shorter than expected.
Actually, a person with a double degree seems to me so advantageous that a person with a double major to get a job. Obviously, a person with a double degree must get a job much earlier than a person with a single degree. On the contrary, I cannot find any advantage on the person with the double major in Japan. The Australian make an assertion that the person with double major can emphasize it's advantage point agains an employer. Employers in Japan are not interested in an employee's major so much in general.
If you want to be a specialist or want to be a researchers at a labo, at least, it is necessary for you to have a master's degree. You can get any job without previous experience in genaral in Japan. Recently Industrial leaders make a assertion that graduate of university have to have practical knowledge and skills, in accordance with the opinions, there are some universities which can offer students the practical knowledge and skills. In fact, it seems to me that practical knowledges and skills at universities in Japan is clearly behind the times. Nobody dare updated it. There is no excellent leaders at universities and a national consensus on educational systems in Japan.

Cómo afrontar la soledad
Porque la pandemia, debo quedar interior. No voy a se fuera para cene con mis amigos, y no viajo a lugares para vacaciones. Lo echo mucho de menos. Porque debo quedar interior, yo atascado con mi pensamientos. A veces me gusta, pero a menudo me encuentro soledad porque no veo el sol, no siento el viento a mi piel y pelo, no veo mis amigos, no veo hermosos lugares. Es muy triste. Pero es nada comparada a las gentes que tienen familias enfermas porque la pandemia, y los personales sanitarios. Espero que la pandemia terminar muy pronto.

A couple of days ago I went to a blind massage shop to do massage because there was something wrong with my left shoulder. My left shoulder has been pained and restricted in movement for several months. I initially thought it would be cured by itself, but things didn't go that way. After doing three massages at that blind massage shop, I thought that I should go to a hospital to see a doctor for systemic check and treatment. After seeing the nuclear magnetic resonance film I took in that hospital, the doctor told me that my left shoulder had a rotator cuff injury. The treatment plan he gave was medium frequency physiotherapy and Chinese medicine fumigation. I have been treated according to this plan five times up to today and symptoms have been alleviated a little. The doctor said that there is no good method to cure this illness yet, and it can only be alleviated.

Merv
Merv foi uma cidade antiga. Cresceu na época da Rota da Seda. A cidade floresceu sob ocupações gregas, árabes, e turcas. Foi um centro de estudo e comércio. Contudo, no século treze, a cidade foi site de um grande massacre do império mongol. Merv foi reconstruido, mas o comércio não realmente voltou na cidade. No século dezenove, a cidade foi abandonada.

El Monstruo
Había un dragón, tan grande y feo. Todo el pueblo lo odia al dragón, por cada día, el dragón venía de las montañas y destruía una casa. Los cuidadnos habían perdido todos sus esperos. El mundo se transformó en una historia desolada. Muchas personas murieron en los incendios: la mayoría, hijos y hijas, demasiado lentos para escapar. Así que, algún día, se quedaron un grupo de los adultos enojados y harta de la destrucción del dragón.
<<¡Necesitamos luchar! Para nuestros futuros, para los de nuestros hijos, para la venganza, para cada persona que hemos perdido.>> dijo un hombre viejo. Él perdió ambos hijos y su mujer embarazada en el incendio que tomó su casa.
<< Pero, ¿como? Él es tan fuerte, grande, malvado. No podríamos ganar en una lucha. Somos tan debiles como resultado de los años de la tortura. Sí creyaramos un problema con el dragón, iría a asesinar todos. Necesitamos luchar por la paz. Quizá le convenzamos acceptar un regalo, un ofrecimiento, para que él sepa que nosotros queremos ser los amigos.>> Carlos era el hijo de lo único granjero del pueblo. Su madre había muerto en un ataque hace años y él nunca la conocía. Él creía en el bueno en todos los creaturas.
<< Eres un perfecto idiota y un cobarde. ¿Solo es es que no quieres luchar, eh? Piensas que no debes proteger sus ancianos o los enfantes. Eres un hombre joven y fuerte, y quieres correr de sus responsibilidades, ¿para que? Tú y tu familia son nada salvo que los campesinos inútiles.>>
<< Vale, viejo, haga lo que quiere. Va a ver que se equivoca.>>
En ese día, todos los hombres y mujeres fuertes prepararon para confrontar al monstrúo. Se quedaban en líneas estirando hasta el borde del mar. Mientras el sol subía en el cielo, ellos miraban a los montañas, esperando. Habían esperado por medio día, cuando de repento, el dragón emergió del horizón. Volaba tan rapido como podía, con todo su esfuerzo. Intentaron correr, pero fue demasiado tarde. Él monstruo les quemó al primero línea. El próximo conocía a sus garras, y lo después de eso, sus colmillos. En solo dos horas, se inundaba la tierra con el sangre y se cubría con los cuerpos.
A nivel de Carlos, él se sentaba en su casa, escuchando a los gritos y sonriendo al cielo.

Ma voiture était coincé
Aujourd’hui, ma voiture était coincé à cause de la niege. Hier après-midi, il a neigé. Quand je suis sorti ce matin pour emmener ma fille à la gardienne, je m’ai dit que j’aurais pousser la niege plus tard aujourd’hui. Quand je suis rentré, ma voiture était coincé parce qu’il y avait une pile de niege. J’ai essayé de pelleter la niege and j’ai utilisé des seaux avec l’eau chaud pour décongeler la niege sous la voiture mais ça ne marchait pas. Heureusement, un voison a vu que j’avais besoin d’aide. Il a téléphoné une autre voisone qui a remorquée ma voiture du tas de la niege. Après ça, elle avait une chasse-neige et elle a enlevée la niege de l’allée. Puis, j’ai remercié mon voison et je suis payé ma voisone avec la chasse-neige pour avant m’a aidée. Enfin, j’ai pris une douche chaud parce que mes pied et mains étaient très froid.

Enclosed workstations or more open design
"In some offices, employees work in enclosed workstations or cubicles. Other offices have a more open design, in which there are no walls separating employees from their coworkers. Which type of arrangement do you think is most effective? Explain, giving reasons to support your answer"
Talking about working, I strongly prefer to work in a place that have a more open design than an enclosed space. I will explain my reasons in the following.
First of all, I support the idea that working in an open design is more comfortable and relaxing for all employees. This is because the open design can possitively impact in their performance during the time-work. I say this reason in my work experience. I remember while I was working, I felt excellent and had much energy in order to work appropiartely. Furthermore, this design gave me a feeling of freedom in my workplace.
My second reason is that having a more open design, the employee have got the opportunity to talk with other co-workers. It means that the human contact is extremely important to maintain a good performance during the work-time, compared to work in an enclosed workstations separated of other co-workers. In my experience, I could keep up with my good performance because of talking over with my co-workers helped me to my mental health and avoid stress from the job.
To sum up, I support the idea that working in an open space is better than working in a cubicles or enclosed spaces, thus this condition gives employees many advantages during their work-time.

This topic makes me have to recall those tough days during the pandemic in 2020. Suddenly, with the pandemic breaking, everything becomes difficult. Shops closed, transportation stopped, people couldn't go out at their will. Even if you go shopping for some essential household items, you still have restrictions. If there was an advantage, and if it could be counted as an advantage, that is that you didn't need to go to the office anymore. We always want to escape from daily work and always want every day to be a holiday, but once all that comes true, like pandemic days, do you feel happy? Although you don't need to go to work and you are allowed to watch TV all day long at home, you definitely don't feel happy at all. So everything should be to a certain extent, too much or too little is all wrong. Fortunately, those tough days have passed, and I never ever hope it comes back again.

Un amigo del trabajo
¡Uno de mis mejores amigos del trabajo ha vuelto de Taiwán! Se fue al país desde hace un mes para ver su familia y le he echado de menos porque es una persona muy positiva que siempre hace feliz a los demás.
Él ha trabajado en la empresa durante casi seis años y tiene un puesto mucho más alto que lo que tengo, así que me ha invitado a unirme a algunos de sus reuniones para aprender sobre su trabajo y prepararme para avanzar mi carrera. Tengo muchas ganas de participar en los reuniones porque tiene un trabajo muy interesante y importante.

"Dulce et Decorum Est"
"Dulce et Decorum Est" es poema famoso que fue escrito por Wilfred Owen. Owen era soldado durante la primera guerra mundial, y este poema habla de lo que experimentó. Aunque Owen no sobrevivió la guerra, se mató en el último año, aún tenemos sus obras. La mayoría del poema trata de los horrores de guerra, pero la última oración tiene un significativo especial. Muestra el descontento la población la sentía a la guerra. Antes de y durante la guerra, los gobiernos los han alentado al patriotismo y al nacionalismo. Sin embargo, cuatro años de guerra y los horrores de la guerra moderna la bastaron. Se muestra en las últimas oraciones del poema "The old Lie: Dulce et decorum est pro patria mori" (La antigua mentira: Es dulce y apropiado morir para su patria).
Es triste y interesante a la vez cómo el nacionalismo causó la primera guerra mundial. Desde luego, no solo la causó, pero era un factor grande. De una manera, es una advertencia al futuro. Deberías tener orgullo de tu país o si no trabajar para mejorarlo. Pese a esto, hay una diferencia grande entre el patriotismo y nacionalismo. Ningún país es lo mejor. Todos tienen potencial de ser asombrosos. Hay países más avanzados, pero los demás los pueden alcanzar.
Dos oraciones con "tal como/tal y como".
1. ¡Era tal como lo de Robby la Navidad pasada!
2. -Él parece tal y como ella después del incidente.
