她無家可歸，母親吸毒，父親在收容所..
很多人會認為她的生活會是一團糟..
沒錯，她曾經是一團糟，周遭充斥著毒品，艾滋病
怕同學嘲笑而逃課，進問題少年收容所，流浪街頭，乞討，睡地鐵...
她的生命出現轉折是在她15歲那年，她的母親因為艾滋病去世..
她親眼看著母親被埋葬在紐約市的免費墓地，連一塊墓碑也沒有...
甚至於將來連那塊地也找不到...
她不願意就這麼毫無目標的活下去，於是她找到之前幫助過她的一位鄰居
爭取到一所高中的面試機會...
獲准入學的時候，她17歲...
爲了趕上其他同學的進度，她修了十門功課..
利用一切可以利用的資源，在地鐵里，巷子里，打工的店裡..
最終，她花了兩年時間修完四年的高中課程
幷獲得紐約時報獎學金，進入常春藤名校 哈佛大學學習
曾經有人問她是否為自己的過去感到不堪，例如乞討，無家可歸
她說，從未，因為在她看來，這就是她生命的一部份
問她現在最想做的事情是什麽
她說，我願意放棄現在所得到的一切，去換回她的家人
其實，有時候生命的轉機和奇跡
往往就取決於你的選擇
而只要堅持，夢想就會實現
Don't let what u cannot do interfere what u can do
Those who wish to sing always find a song
Life is never so hard if u keep looking forward...

The Things That Gone.....
I cleared up my things yesterday, and found many old stuffs. Those are all my collections when I was a kid, and each of them contains a memory...
She is my first idol. I was in primary school then, about 10 or 11 years old, and I bought her all ablums. All are legal copies. And look, they're almost new! Although they're all published ten years ago. I'd like to keep things clean and new. Nowadays people call it OCD.= =, I admit, a little.
And this, I'm sure everyone who knows me, who also knows her. Yes, she is my idol, too. And already for more than 10 years. I have all her albums, and those are just tape part, not contains the CDs, and, the books....
Hey, look at this..Oh, please just ignore that ugly picture..= =...I was in Middle school then. I don't remember exactly why I didn't go with other members and just act like those real reporters. I just remember, I didn't join in, and I also just have this card!!= =...(gonna be kidding me- -)
This could be the most ridiculous one. I don't know how it works, and I even don't remember how I get it...I just remember I sent the apply form, and I received this...= =..And no follow-ups...Oh, I remember that one thing thay said is to sent them 2 essays each year..Well, they must took my name off already...= =
And about this, it has a special experience. The sohu blog is my first blog, even it is kinda of closed now.. And I got the permission of this activity when I was in college. So I went to Beijing alone, with only 50RMB or so, to took my ticket..and, a T-shirt..= =..Although it not as good as it said...
These cute cards all came from a clun called XiaoTaiYangZhiYou or something like that...I have no idea how I join it. I just received a letter, and they told me I was a member of them...= =And I can received 1 or 2 letters with journals inside. They also hold some competitions and other activities. I only as a member for 2 years, cuz the third year's membership cost money..And my dad said they were liars..= =
hey, my article was printed on a magazine for the first time..Even the magazine for primary school...and I was already in High school then...= =...So what..it's a fairy tale any way...And I got 100RMB for it...
Also in High school, but this time in newspaper...A TV newspaper of our province. Oh, I just found my high school years are also my create years...Now my inspiration seems to run to an end...T^T...
I like these things..The pen and the color pencils are cute...I just remembered that I sent my drawing, and I got these...
It looks beautiful..at least at that time...I stolen it from my uncle's house..= =..Hey, don't blame me, I was just a little girl then, and I like shining things, not to mention it has a shape of heart....
It's just a box..Oh, it used to have candies in it...My little sister also bought one. You know, pink, shape of heart, little girl's favorite thing...
I always put them together, they're match, aren't they~And I believe it can bring magic at that time....
Tiny cute cards...I also played during my breaktime..
Oh, this club has already closed down...= =...
These cards are cute...I collected them from a kind of instantnoodle. There should be a whole set..But I only have these..enough..I think...
Book marks...They even not be used as a book mark for just one time...Just for collection..- -
My first MP3 player and my first electronic dictionary...They really are my best and old friends..
Oh, this card has very special meaning for me..She was my friend, from distance..We wrote letters to each other...You know how it means to kids, friends, letters, mysterious...We keep in touch until we were in high school..But now we lost contacts...I only hope that she can saw it...there're many things I wanna talk and explain to you...
These three books accompanied me during my third year of high school...At that time, I only hope I can have a dad like that...Now I see, the real world is harsh...I never have a dad like that....- -
And about this...I never forgive my parents for this...I have a chance, but they made me to miss it..And now, I have to start from the very begining...I will never ever go to the wrong way this time....
OK, that's all...And there're more...and I will put them together...and, it needs time....
OK, that's all...And there're more...and I will put them together...and, it needs time....
