Confucius 孔子 - Movie

兰之猗猗,扬扬其香。 众香拱之,幽幽其芳。 不采而佩,于兰何伤? 以日以年,我行四方。 文王梦熊,渭水泱泱。 采而佩之,奕奕清芳。 雪霜茂茂,蕾蕾于冬, 君子之守,子孙之昌。 这首《幽兰操》经过少许的改篇,其原由来自于孔子。孔子在中国历史里写下光辉的一面。他的论语,通过弟子的传扬,使得大众受惠。他非常坚定地推广礼善对人,仁字当头的理论。其好并不得到苟同与认可,他便离开鲁国,14年的潦倒就是为了宣言自己的道,最终回到了故乡,开馆受教。 孔子偏好兰花。兰花可称之为“兰为王者香”。歌词中的“兰之猗猗,扬扬其香,众香拱之,幽幽其芳”描述着当兰花在空中摇曳,它散发出的花香,远远超过其他的花香。接着,“不采而佩,于兰何伤?”字义这么美的花并没人采来佩戴,对兰花并没有任何的损失,暗喻着孔子感慨自己的才华没被发掘,既然不获赏识,也无妨。 “以日以年,我行四方”。孔子游走多个国,如魏国为了延续自己的抱负。他并没因为挫败而停止一切。“文王梦熊,渭水泱泱”表示一个贤明的君王好求才华横溢的人才,这些人才也好求贤明的君王。“采而佩之,奕奕清芳”代表着人才需要被发掘,被器重,那他人方可把才智发挥得更好。 “雪霜茂茂,蕾蕾于冬”一个人经历艰辛万苦,长年累月才能成就自己。“君子之守,子孙之昌”劝告如果大家明白法则,必能使子孙昌盛。 古代历史人物的理论,让世人参考。有时候,我们会觉得他们的理想过于远大。世界的不同,时代的变迁,人类的转变,环境的改革等等,种种的因素可以造成不可能。限制与表面的理解,而无法深入探讨骨子里的意义,只让我们停在原点。看得远,看得近意味着我们的视野对现在与未来的策划。一套的哲理,经过不同的研究与测试,才能够成为哲理,不然再好的哲理,没有去实践,也许就只是普通的话语。 文言文其实提升我对这部戏的兴趣,因为我会因为不明白而去明白,因为不了解而去了解。历史虽然是过去式,却是现在式与未来式的方针。我们的参考资料,就是历史。

Alice in Wonderland (Movie)

We wonder..we dream..we wish...future tense that push us forward or pull us backward. In the realm of life, how wish we could regress to our childhood for a moment. When we are hooked up of difficulties and complexity, we will experience great upset and disappointment. For the child's eye, we see the simplicity and innocence, which we would love to retain if the situation allows to. Don't destroy the imagination of kids. Their thought can be wild and creative. It is a world of wonderland. They could indulge in their small little world, whereas adults are hard to break in. Children stories focus on impossibility of task completion, heroism of characters, vivid and colorful painting, and the main element is imagination. Imagination makes creative. Creativity helps us think out of the box. Personally, creativity is the most important aspect in my life. I search for it, because I love change, challenge, acceptance of self and others, and so on. Alice in Wonderland, accompanied in m...

Eduwis Ampang : Art and Craft (Holiday Programme)

Materials: egg carton and toilet roll Age group: 3-5 years old 1. Caterpillars " Caterpillar is coughing..c c c.." We sang this phonetic song during circle time. One of my students changed the song to "caterpillars are kissing..c c c.." (she moved her caterpillar facing another caterpillar, for kissing) *Smart and Creative* They mixed and matched color although I warned them to use only a color. I have to make a plastic apron for them next time, because they also painted their uniform. Students' work My creations below: 2. Robot Pen Holder & Rocket Reflection: I love them because they know what they like. They have their preference of color, short and simple. When we grow older, our preference always swinging, but they won't. I like the pureness and simplicity nature. I love craft, if my mood is good I love craft, if materials are abundant I love craft, if time is proficient I love craft, if the creation is satisfying I love craft, if someone appreciate...

4D3N Kota Kinabalu, Sabah - Day 4

Last day of KK, I was unbearable to leave this place. Lots of places that I missed out, due to constraint of time. It came to dilemma, to let go some places. Flipped through the map for few times, finally decided to go Kudat, Tip of Borneo . I never expected it took 3 hours plus to reach the destination. Driving through a big field, village, plantation, and so on...finally we witnessed the gigantic sea in front of our eyes. Fantastic and incredible beautiful !! I was so impressed, and I told myself the drive is a worthwhile. The combination of North South Sea and Sulug Sea, has formed such an eye-catching scenery. Too bad, it wasn't much tourists there, perhaps it was on weekdays. But, if your time allow to, you shouldnt miss this golden chance to have a look at this. Look at pictures now... Before leaving to Kuala Lumpur, we had our last meal in the same restaurant, Gayang. This time I remembered to take the view of the restaurant. I love this nyonya asam fish. Super delicious! I ...

4D3N Kota Kinabalu, Sabah - Day 3

Come to 3rd days, I started to realise time is ain't enough. In fact, KK has lots of places of attraction. It is the disadvantage of free and easy, because you tend to DIY and find out plenty of places which you would love to try. The next day morning, American breakfast set :) We started the engine ahead to Kundasang . It took us 2 hours 30 minutes to reach our first destination, Kinabalu Park. The road was weary and small. Furthermore, how to expect a small kancil to speed? If you are so unfortunate, happened to have a big lorry drives like a tortoise in front of you, it is certainly slow down your speed too. Discovery: lots of catholic church along the way to Kundasang. Furthermore, their board is designed to be the same, except the wording stated differently for different churches. I wondered it is a need to have so many churches, as the population wasn't large enough to accommodate many for those churches? I was really interested at their target group of people. So fascin...

4D3N Kota Kinabalu, Sabah - Day 2

The next morning before we started our island trip, we had hotel breakfast. It wasn't a buffet, but there is availability of set of meals provided. The music played in the hotel has caused me indulging in romantic atmosphere. A great approach to customers :) ahha Our set meals Jesselton Point , is the ferry terminal for Islands. It is only a few minutes drive from town, was really convenient for all the tourists. When you stepped in the hall to purchase tickets, all the competitors started to shout for your attention to their counters. After consideration, we decided to go for 2 islands - Pulau Gaya and Pulau Sapi ( Pulau Manukan , Pulau Sulug & Pulau Manutik as other choices). Diving and snookering are both common activities for sea lovers. In short, Pulau Gaya was for jungle trekking, Pulau Sapi for corals viewing, and Pulau Manutik for fishes. The sea was getting clearer and cleaner when we were fetched to the respective islands. The first stop was in Pulau ...
