::Can i just telll you the BSP talk this afternoon was just BEAUTIFUL? the girls were not quite...v cold..bad...(wonders why)..but.ya..0.0...but the talk...the speaker who looked 80 and balding was just AMAZING! His knowledge abt chinese text and poetry was absolutely fascinating and inexhaustible! He is the kind of person that really REALLY amazes me. 2 REALLYs!! YAH... rating is 2 REALLYs!
I knew it was going to be a incredible experience as soon as he started presenting! with a projector and wrote his 'ppt' as he went along! I was asleep within 5 minutes..zzZ..isn it juz amazing? My previous record was for chemistry lesson..dat i dozed off within 20minutes? like this totally beat my previous record by 15 minutes! Btw, im not even the first to doze off...pss...some ny gals r really rude..yah..slept like pigs...(they dn read mi blog so whoohoo..)
--the rest r really boring and juz records for ACE report--stop here---
Anyway, it was truly an amazing experience. I mean SERIOUSLY! after i woke up, the speaker captured my attention within minutes! Listening to him explaining chinese literiture to us made these literiture come to life! What was incomprehensible chinese characters printed in ugly font on a cheap A4 size paper, now turned into stories filled with emotions and meaning! These words painted pictures and aroused novel feelings i have NEVER felt before? like that is soooo coooool..dude. Verses of poetry from li bai, du pu, lines from famous novels such as hong lou meng, shui hou zhuan...gosh..although i have read some of them before, his explanation added a whole new different dimension to these words. It was AMAZING okay? like one phrase of chinese or juz a word can convey so many incredible things? OMG...i loved it to death. It made me feel so...refined...cultured...just like those sages of those times...(which i totally am not 4 some reason)..The poetry let us into their lives and time like a time machine! SO much flavour in SO little words? INCREDIBLE!::
