Update - Coke zero

This is the modificatory version for Coke-zero.
Because almost viewers replied me they don't like the main colors.
Originial, i choose blue because of it can means sport, fresh, health and cool.
I think i choose the wrong colors for that.
Therefore, i think about the color again.
Finally, i reture to the basic color for color that is RED.
Although it will be similar for the other same products.
I hope the pop design can be catch the attention of my target market.

So this time i will show more project to guys. such as envelope and letterhead.
Tell me ur feeling. It will be very helpful for me if u have something wanna say.
Thanks

Restart


This photo was shoot in Rocks. I have been Sydney nealy two years.That day is the first time to visit the sign of this city, or can i say the sign of this country. I took many photos. That is the one of my favour.

Still have one week, i will start my last semester in INSEARCH.
I guess the other Blogs of my classmates will not have new articles now.
However, i love writing online. I will keep this blog going.
Although i havent put new photos up for long time~
The holiday doesnt mean relax for me now.
Nearly work everyday...In order to support my life, my dream.
I think that is perhaps the theme of life, restart again and again
The last semester was heard so far for me before last 10 months.
But now, it has already in front of me.
No thing will waitting just because of you.
The new start seems has more difficult insife.
When i have no second choise, i know that is the only one choise to escape.
Good luck for me. Good luck for my classmates.

is it the end?


The last week of this semester. Under the stressed feeling, everyone looks tired.
Have a dinner with friends last night, a lit bit drunk.
I like the feeling that when i feel a lit bit drunk.
The thinking is not completely clear, but make me think lots.
The end of this semester, recall the memory in the beginning of the first semester. we're more close now.

Friendship is the thing how great it is!
The language is not problem between the people who wanna be friend,isnt it?

is it the end of this blog's life?
Maybe from next week, i will not pod photo everyweek.
But i hope i could keep this blog as long as my chinese one.

Some people use blog as a fast way to become famous.
Some people use blog as a platform for communiting with the others.
Some people use blog as a professional area for knowlege.

My blog is for myself.
Just be myself.

Everyday. the same


Someone asked me do you like your life now?

I cannot answer directly as before in China.

Different country, Different language, Different culture.

I need to learn everything from beginning.

I cannot say i was wrong for giving up everything in China

I cannot say i hope returen my life

Life just like the water. Just let it go

follow its way, to looking more you cannot know before.

Everyday, the life is as same as the air.

Whatever the weather is. Wherever the location is.

Just keep going. Just be yourself.

I still believe in somewhere i could find my light for my life.


So...The faith will be the same forever.

Everyday.Everywhere.

Color of Autumn

The color of Autumn is yellow normally on people's mind.
The Yellow seems gloomy and lonely
Nearly 1 week, the topic of weather is always rainy

Is it preparing for Winter?
To give a new beginning of winter, Autumn is clearing the air now?

Who knows? Who cares?
Maybe, lonely people will be only audiences.

China is our home













One story
A mother brings up her children. She doesn't care how poor of family. She just trys to give her children all she can offer. After many years, the children are all growing up and the family also become more and more rich and better. Although it still has some problems, it still keeps growing. Some neighbors starts to make some troubles to this family. They told to one child that you need independence, because your mother didnt give you need during growing. She is partial to the others.In addition, your family is poor. If you leave this family, i can help you get you want, such as status and money.

The other story
One day, a common quarrel happened in a family. When the quarrel finished, a person went to complaint. He complaints that this mother used family violence and repression in her family. When he was complaintting, he said many things that as their own lives in that same family. However, What is the fact? He ever never knew the door number of that family even.

Now I have some questions
Some Australia support Tibet independence. What is the reason? Did you really see something happened in China? What is the true in this even? If one day, Perth wanna independence. If you are Australian, will you agree with that?

China is our home. One China. Forever.

Festival life


Festival...
More and more Festival was filled into people's lives.
East and west, people like tomix together.
Therefore, it spells the nature people long to the freedom.


Gife...
The yearning of the gifts no longer only belong to the children's wishes, The world in adults needs a little gift either.


Wish...
Now the social is indifference. The relations between people has been changed silently. However, more and more people choose entrusting their own souls to the faith. So when the bell rings in the festivity, people will clasp two hands closely and make a wish with closing eyes.




Life...
Life is perhaps a competition between desire and realization.That is a circle of making wish and making it come truth. The champion is the effort one. The gift of festival will be the comprehends of life.


The Easter holiday has finished totally.Everything comes back.
The new beginning, the new travel
To welcome the new festival, let's go ahead!~

The tempo



The tempo of people always busy now.
Although the reason is quite different.
maybe for themselves. maybe for their family.
maybe for the faith. maybe for the future.
When you with them, you will keep going faster and faster.
Such as a river, if you stop. you might be submerge...

Cigarette's secret


Cigarettes

burnt in the space without the light

Melancholy or mysterious


Cigarettes

butnt in the the night without the sun shine

does is place on the loneliness or fire lonesome?

Many people like to smoke

Some say that because the motion is very interesting

Burning cigarette butts in between your fingers

the smog roves with the wind in the air.


And I feel that at the end of misty smoke

Also harbored some private secret


Why do people choose to smoke?

We discussed this question in class

My answer is to reduce pressure


The process of life

Perhaps it is a course that learning how to change pressure to the power in the life.

In my cigarette
It hid the missing of my home

and the fear of the future


However...
I always remember when i shake off the dust in that moment
I seem to see some reduction of my own sadtheir own sad


I do not like smoking in the sun

How beautiful the day is!

Therefore, Let depression vent into the night
That is my cigarette's secret.

Extending ur wish


"The Spirit of God was hovering over the waters. And God said, 'Let there be light,' and there was light. God saw that the light was good, and he separated the light from the darkness. God called the light 'day', and the darkness he called 'night'. And there was evening, and there was morning, the first day." (Gen. 1:2-5)


Thus, on the first day, God commanded, "Let there be light in the darkness." God ordered the earth, which is like a great ball in the heavens, to rotate once every twenty four hours. That is why we have about twelve hours of daylight and twelve hours of night. What a great thing God did on the first day in separating the light from the darkness!



I like this quote.

The first time i listened to the class in the Church is in Singapore 2005.


Before i went to the Church, i just believe God is the true. But i dont trust him.

Because my grandpa told me the future is always in your hands.


As the time past, i found that faith doesnt mean nothing. That is the dependence on your mind and support your mind.


Whatever,

The reason i choose this quote is very simple.

When i read this quote no matter how many times, I can always pick up my wish, my bravery again.


Because it tells me a easy principle. That is turning on your light of your wish, and let light up your mind. You will not lose yourself forever. No matter how difficult things in front of you, you will be fine.


Sometimes, I feel depressed. It usually happens at the deep of night when I stay in my lonely bedroom. After I read it, i tell myself, pick up your wish, the light will be back when sun rise.


Maybe we are different totally, I still wanna tell you
Longliness, weakness, sadness...let them all belonged to the dark, into the night.
Looking at the sky at night, the silent moon-light will help you.
Then, When the sun rise again, please pick up your brave,pick up your wish again.
Because I believe the power of wish will be stronger and stronger as the light extend to everywhere in the earth after sun rise.



Never give up.

Colorful or less


I like photos
cos it can help me keep the pieces i wanna hold

I like making photos (i dont know is it correct description)

change the colors in the photo and make them different style

I hope people can feel or imagine the story behind the photos.

Like the one in this article

it is a black and white photo.why can you feel when you see that?

it's a corner beside the road. Silent, no one there, and so on.

But different colors can throw the different leads to reader



Compare these two. The same background. But the different colors.
What's ur feeling? That is the point i like to know.
In the black and white one, we cannot feel the sun shine, the photo is looked cold and old.
Differently,in the color one, it likes the tea time in the free afternoon.
Everything looked relax.
color or colorless. during the time when u blink ur eyes

Can u feel ur light?


It is a very ordinary light

She is the role of lighting


When the sun rises in the morning,

She picks up that weak light she own quietly in the room

looking at the sun. Waiting for the night


When the moon rises in the evening,

In the blink of an eye when switch turned on,

She uses that silent ray to experl that dark in the room.

Lookng at me. Chapperoning with me.


She's in my bedroom.

Such as my different mood during the night and the day

When I face to the sun

I hope I am a strong girl and fight to the difficulty in the life.


However, it is opposite when night coming

I Like quiet

I wanna do who I am

No any mask

Perhaps just a cup of tea, a period of quiet Piano

And then with the lamp like that


Although no bright light

it is enough to illuminate the soul

I can feel the most primitive thing in my heart


The missing


Light

May be it is an unusual

But it seems to me very important


She can be a spiritual sustenance

My heart will feel safer


She also can be a symbol of home

Like children can always see the light through window in their house when they finish the class


What does that mean?

Your morther is waiting for you back.


I feel my light in my life

Cos it's the wish in my heart deeply

I like my light in my life
Cos it's the direction for my eyes

Time is


Time is circle
go round and round, cannot be stopped

Time is mirror
clear and honest, cannot be faked

Time is note
ordinary and real, cannot be priced

Time is a teacher
teaches people what life it is

Time is a catalyst
catalyzes people to feel the truth of life

What is the truth of life?
Different enviroment gives people different definition on their mind

LOVE
that is a point
some people love theirselves
some people love their family
some people love their friends
some people love the other person who is special for them

That is a point, isn't it?

That is my thinking of the time.
When the passing of the time, we will know what's real happened in our life.
