Oh, you guys can't imagine how happy and excited I was when an art student PM me and exchanged QQ with me because she was also a big S.K x HK fan! I felt walking on a piece of soft cotton when we chatted online, you may know or may not know, it's quite rare that people from mainland will love this pairing, let alone an art student who can compose magnificent fan-picutres about them~ Indeed I've collceted some of her paintings on LP BBS but I've nere expect that she will initially contact me(mainly due to my 100 questions about the pairing= =|||)
Moreover, yesterday morning when I checked my message box I found another news that really made my day. A girl requested the permission of using my fanfics as scripts for they wanna COSPLAY it! Oh it was just like a dream and I was too happy to describe my feeling at that time. Certainly I told her to feel free to use and rewrite it so as to be more natural and funny. I can't wait to see their pictures!
Hang on, I almost forget the most important topic I talked with that art student(forgive for my incoherent speech m-_-m!). Yep, fanbook, we talked about publishing a fanbook about S.K x HK although finally I gave up this idea. Thanks to her, at least I know it will only take me RMB 1,500 to publish a fanbook at the smallest scale rather than, say, RMB 5,000 in my imagination. I do not really care about the money stuff, but I do concern that there won't be enough fans who wanna buy it cuz this pairing really is cold in mainland(I can't sell them in HK, one reason is relatively high postage and another reason is we don't speak Cantonese and the culture differences may not entertain fans from Hong Kong). What's more, if I myself wanna publish a fanbook then things will become much more tough. I am only a writer whose writing sucks. I'm extremely serious cuz too many times I found myself fail to choose proper words(both in Chinese and English) to express my true feelings and several of my fanfics have stucked in cirical part. I do not have the confidence to complete a masterpiece that can show the best aspect of this pairing to the public so I decided to reserve my opinion until there comes another writer who can meet my standard. I've searched S.K x HK fanfics in search engine, only to find few stories that are either just so-so or sucks. To say the least, if I succeed in composing a gorgeous fanfic about them, who can draw illustrations and, the most vital, cover for me? Anyway, I don't wanna run into troubles~ sorry for Yong Soo and Horace, I really love you two but now, I still lack the ability to publish a fanbook for you two, really sorry.
BTW, I've bought a new tablet and this is my practice. Different from Ann, I didn't learn sketching and know little about the fundamental principle of light and shadow. It really confused me how to deal with shadows on clothes and characters' face. I can't make so great progress in a short period of time like Ann, but I'll keep trying and improve it.

Really wanna see what conversatins those two young guys will have when they are listening to Our Song by Taylor Swift.
Really wanna see how Arthur and Alfred enjoy those tasty food in HK and what funny things will happen to those two idiots.
Really wanna see the happy wedding of Gilbert and Elizaveta, with Vash and Roderich standing by and toasting their best bless to the new couple.
Really wanna...
However, traslation is not easy for me at any time. I'm not English major and there objectively exist some difficuties with regard to culture differences. Okay, it's just a plan. If I've got enough I'll give it a shot but...maybe it's just fancy.
BTW, I have to admit this, but Japanese digital products are really awesome! My new WACOM tablet is so wonderful that I can't help kissing it again and again and so is my new CASIO electronical dictionary.

Finally I got home after more than 3-hour travel(damn CRH train, it stopped at each small station I cared to name and only God knew how much time it wasted on the way)...anyway, dear hometown, I'm back hahahha!~
My first semester in Shanghai University was nothing but a mess, completely. I screwd up my Macroeconomics final exam, with my brain empty when scanning the three kind of policy government will adopt with regard to rapid inflation. Moreover, when my dear professor listed more or less 20 components of an economy, I gave up the last bunch of hope because I realised that I'd never figure out the right outcome with so many freaking data. Hmm...luckily my Business Statistics did not seem as bad as I anticipated. Oh I just wanna all these nightmares to end in a blink of an eye cuz I can't bear them any more! I promise I'll make my next semester a better one!
Wow, how can I do in the next one week holiday? Okay, I've made up my mind to relax myself and do nothing regading my study(oh yeah)~

I doubted whether there was something wrong with my ears when my mother told me my hometown snowed. My hometown, a city located in subropical area, snowed, right now, in middle November? Was God kidding? I felt as if the disaster of the world started and the climate change was only one tiny sign of the whole upside-down.
Anyway, it's no use to worry about this so much because I cannot change it. I don't own private car, I walk to school or take public transportation as much as possible. I've devoted my share to the environmental protection and also call for people giving up unhealthy lifestyle. That's enough. Let's see what will happen. I cannot see any brilliant future of this world.
Recently I felt my homesickness almost rushed out my heart. I wanna go back home, turly. Mom and dad, I really miss you.

November 11 th, Single's Day. One of my best friends sent me meesage only to tell me she had been in love with her previous classmate. My roommate won't celebrate this day with me because she's got a boyfriend. Ha, sounds like I am the poorest one, without boyfriend(okay, of course no girlfrend, I'm straight), without love affairs and I am still facing several final exams. Those amounting pressure almost freak me out! So what? Boyfriend is nothing but trash to me.
BTW, in yesterday's speaking examination, I was required to talk something about architecture again. Why architecture again? FML.

Steve asked me what mark I got in ielts exam after class. Since he was my writing teacher, I thought he was asking about my writing task so my reply was 5.5. Much to my surprise he said I was joking because all of the teachers thought my essay in mid-term examination was fantastic...well, I was totally speechless and didn't know what happened.
My linear algebra still remained a big problem but now I couldn't spare time for it cuz some other subjects were more stinking, say, that god-damn macroeconomics. Curse was flying in my mind when I found nobody would depict Phillips Curve with a graph of which horizontal axis is real output rather than unemployment EXCEPT Godern Brown. What's in his mind? Why did he wrote such a tedious and arid textbook for undergraduates? Besides, CIMA has sent an e-mail to me and now my team and I had an onerous task to provide an analysis for a company to predict its 5-year plan. However, two of my members are freshmen without any experience on business and even I, the leader, still haven't learnt modern financial management. Oh my god, and the other sophomore in my team is poor at her study so I'm not sure whether she can help a lot. I almost want to give up cuz I still have so many review plans which are much more important to me.
What about my fanfiction? I must apologize dear girls, now I am so busy with my study and really can't manage that at the same time. Anyway I promise I'll give them a happy ending, but not everyone. I am still wondering what if Yong Soo and Horace failed to grab each other and ultimately broke up due to Yao and Al's intervention.

I want to boost my GPA up to 3.5 or even higher.
I want to stand out as the leader of my team in CIMA.
I want to learn GRE with Janet in Beijing.
I want to apply for an American university ranking Top 50.
I want to fly to the continent over the ocean to see how wide and spectacular the world is.
I want to return my motherland with glory and wealth.
I want to deeply take root in Shanghai, the most prosperous metropolitan city in mainland.
I want my university to be proud of me for she accepted me unbiasedly and tolerantly as a regular student.
I'd never take so much pride in my identity, a finance major student in Shanghai University. Surely it cannot match other topmost colleges in China and it only ranks within TOP 50 in motherland, which means it is not satisfactory enough. So what? My university is named after the most famous modern city in China, its graduates have excelled at any area you care to name. I have confidence in both my school and myself.
I won't give up.

He did not long for going back home as I expected before. It cannot be denied that under Arthur's guide, Horace grew up fast at an amazing speed and became much more prosperous than before. He even won a wonderful title of the pearl in east(hmm...I am not sure whether it's appropriate to translate it like this) and now HK is still one of the most important finance and tourism centres in Asia. Well, actually Arthur really did a good job although colonlization is unfair to the people who dwell on colonies. Oh what rubbish am I talking about? Haha I totally get off track~okay, now the problem is how to portray the relationship between Horace and Arthur. Since my topic is HK x China, the fiction cannot place too much premium on how HK developed an attachment for England...well, it is a big challenge indeed but I'll try. Remember, the emphasis is the reunion of HK and China(just family love, no Yaoi please, I can't bear those smutty imaginations about the brothers at all) because this idea came to me in July and at that time almost every Chinese Hetalia fans were talking about this historical event. It's absolutely a bless event, right? ^-^
BTW, the idea of completing that story reminds me that there's another fan-fiction remains to be written= =|||. Ah...that love is not an easy game to play about USK and France's love triangle story. I really want to apologize to Francis because in a lot of fan-fictions, every time he met Alfred, the poor guy seems to be totally defeated, no matter how pure and passionate his love to Arthur is. Well, at first I made up my mind to follow the discipline as well but now I change my mind. Hey we can't always treat Francis like that, right?
Come to think of it, Stephen gave a good mark for the essay although there were still some words and sentences to be improved~\(≧▽≦)/~. Science and technology are primary productive force, this saying help me leave an awesome impression on him(hope I can make it in really ielts test). It seems like surfing those English websites for news make great sense~
Ah, am I talking too much? Hmm...I'm also going to sign up for CIMA project, fight for the topmost honor as a business major student! Come on guys~

Oh yeah tomorrow the first activity we Business Association host this semester will be held in school's university~ It really took me a long time to carry out a plan about the process TuT.
This lecture will share some experiences on how to plan undergraduates' future and choose suitable professions after graduation. The lecturer is an illustrious manager of a famous company. I believe it will benefit me a lot If I can get a chance to listen after all the work I'll be responsible for to keep order.
Hope everything will go well and good luck to all of us!
XD Business Association, fight~

You can never imagine how frustrated I was when I found I failed to compose those attractive sentences in my Chinese fan-fictions about Hetalia. How could those beautiful words and expressions fly away from my brain as if they'd evaporated in the sunshine? I wasn't able to convert my feelings and inspirations into appropriate sentences that could be smooth enough to read comfortably because I almost forgot the fundamental grammar about my mother tongue (okay I admit I never had a grip of that= =). Anyway, I didn't know whether those English I put down are correct or not, either. It really made me feel bad and it's just like I got lost in a riddle, failing to find the way out. It seems like I've been haunting by a lack of sense of belonging and I really miss that safety my mother tongue can bring. My scratch papers, note books and textbooks are all crawling with letters rather than those delicate Chinese characters once I fell in love with. Off and on I really wanted to ask myself, who I am, where I belong to, what I should do, how I got myself into such a situation.
Unfortunately, no one can answer my questions.
What's worse, my test score was not so satisfactory as I expected. Perhaps I was too strict with myself, but absolutely I can't be content with a band score 7 on listening task. How can I backslide so fast oh I'm going to have a nosebleed. When all the mid-term tests end yesterday, I couldn't help collapsing to the ground in my dormitory because the pressure was too high to the point where I couldn't bear it any more.
Janet seems to encounter the same problem as I did. Yet she's much better than me. At least she still refer to a Chinese book when study the damn modern financial management but I totally refuse to read those trash. My motto is, I do not need any Chinese textbook to help me comprehend those complicated notions at all! You see, I deserve it, I deserve a degeneracy in my mother tongue.
I really wonder how those Canadians manage to acquire English and French so skillfully and naturally. Well, I don't want my blog full of complaints and shameful thoughts. At least now I can understand Shanghai dialect if those local people do not speak so fast. It's great progress for me indeed.
Time to set out and work hard again. I can make it!
PS:look at the tags I used most frequently..tired? Am I always talking about how tired I am? Maybe I need a relax recently.
