Debate

I hope the health insurance system in this country will be fixed soon. At this point, it is really a disaster.

Vista

I bought a new computer last week, since old one stop functioning. However, I found that Windows Vista is still a crap. I really do not like Vista.

 I think this is cool.

Remind

This is the phrase I usually remind when I feel angry.

“Whenever you feel like criticizing any one,” he told me, “just remember that all the people in this world haven’t had the advantages that you’ve had.”

Future

Freeman Dyson said;

It has become part of the accepted wisdom to say that the twentieth century was the century of physics and the twenty-first century will be the century of biology. Two facts about the coming century are agreed on by almost everyone. Biology is now bigger than physics, as measured by the size of budgets, by the size of the workforce, or by the output of major discoveries; and biology is likely to remain the biggest part of science through the twenty-first century. Biology is also more important than physics, as measured by its economic consequences, by its ethical implications, or by its effects on human welfare.

I hope this is true.

Shoulder

My shoulder is killing me.  I cannot sleep because I always get acute pain in my right shoulder while I am sleeping.  This is stressful.  I should see my doctor. But pitty thing in this country is that health insurance is not working.  It is very hard to even see a doctor here. 

Oil price

The price of gas is hitting its ceiling. I think someone may be manipulating the price of gas. Since one year ago during the mid-term election, the gas price hits its bottom. It was probably to win the election. If Bush administration or some friends of Bush know the way to change the oil price intentionally, they must have already made tremendous amount of money. I think that is the way some rich people are getting richer in this country.

Streak

Once you start it, you have to believe in yourself. You have to believe that you will hit the streak when you going forward. This path, which you are walking alone, will lead you to a new land. The land no one has never seen. How hard people criticize you, you have to be live in it. You trust your ability, instinct and gumption. You will only make it when you think you can do it. This is the war you fight. You have to fight it by yourself.

4th of July

It is independence day here. Barbecue under the clear summer sky. The fireworks coming later. People look happy around. However, I am still struggling through the mud alone.
