live or survive?

''We don't live; we survive.''

I read this sentence from 蔣友柏's blog.

(I think he is a wise man and

also he's a handsome guy,ha! But he's married...)

This is what his professor had told him.

That's right, we just survive.

We survive in this competitive world.

how do you think about this,''we don't live; we survive.'' ?

New Year's Resolutions

Happy New Year everyone!

With the coming of the new year, do you have any New Year's resolution? Well, I do.
In 2008, I hope I can improve my oral ability.

Being a English major, it is necessary to speak English fluently. However, I am not able to do so. Something I feel frustrated when I am not able to use English to express myself. I always wonder, why? why can't I? Maybe I need time and more efforts to achieve my goal.

I know there are a lot of things I have to learn, not only oral ability,but composition and so on. In this year, I will push myself to finished my New Year's resolution.
