Sniper 神枪手演员：Edison Chen as O 仔，　　　　黄晓明　as 靖　　　任贤齐　as 头
Overview:

－靖和头是特务队的队友。他们俩技术了得，难分高下。靖性格冷酷，有自信慢慢。上司正想让他们其中一位升职。

－在一次的任务中，匪徒在银行挟持了二十名人质，其中包括了银行的“太子”。匪徒把枪指在太子的额头上，所以警司长命令特务队不要行动。靖和头分别担任一位和二位组的枪手。眼看匪徒就要引爆手榴弹，靖擅自向匪徒开枪，却打中了太子。

－当上司要求报告，靖一五一十地告诉他们，他开枪是当务之急。第二个清楚看到匪徒的一举一动的是头。当上司问他是否看到匪徒要拉安全针，他尽然说“我没有看到”，这一句话让靖被判四年牢。女友在他坐牢的其间跳楼，让他精神崩溃。

- O 仔原本只是个巡警，头（当时的教官）发掘了他，让他加入特务队,因为他目睹O 仔办案的自信。O 仔很好胜，要做第一名，头怕他成为第二个靖，所以处处针对他。O 仔偶然遇到靖，靖因爱才，教O 仔憋气联射的个人诀窍。在训练时，O 仔运用这个诀窍，认为很管用，可是被头臭骂一顿。

-靖以报仇的心态帮助匪徒，杀死了特务队里的兄弟。

-在“最后一战”，靖利用警察长为人质，要求头来应战。最后，大部分组员都倒下，剩下O 仔和头。头和靖因为相斗而各自受伤。头做掩饰，让靖向他开枪，他也命令O 仔“用最适合她的方式”将靖射死。头是在暗示O 仔永憋气连射法。虽然计划成功了，头也微笑着离开，好似因为偿还靖而感到安慰。

Moral:

过于自信=自负

不该有所谓的一山不容二虎

不能过于得好胜

It is kind of critisism but, the interesting picture above represents the "SWAT team"

Phatom workers

2009-02-21T19:36:00.000-08:00

Phantom workers

they don't work, but they get paid

(I got scolded by my mum for not reading the newspaper-again. >.<

Several retirees who aren't working surprisingly discovered money deposited in their CPF account
Under the law, sectors such as service and manufacturing must employ a certain number of singaporeans/permanent residents before they can hire foreign workers.
These errant employeers are hoping to benefit from the new Job Credit scheme

-A total of $4.5 billion forked out so that

- Employeers get 12% cash grant on the first $2,500 of wages for every Singaorean/permanent resident on CPF payroll

Reasons for scam

Cost:Cheaper to hire foreign workers compared to locals
Time: Foreigners are willing to work longer hours
Attitude: Locals are more picky about jobs and quit easily

Given solutions/suggestions

-"Quotas create problems because they create artificial barriers and people will find ways around them. What we should focus on is giving local workers a competitive advantage by improving their skills."

-Strong enforcement of existing rules. Employeers will then realise the consequences of flouting the law.

樱花岸

樱花岸是一篇凄美的爱情小说。故事叙述一名力气大却活泼开朗又漂亮的女生－－海希。她患有先天性心脏病。她与体弱又温柔的男生－－晓誓言在他们离别的十年后，相遇在樱花树下。十年后，海希为了找晓，转校到晓的学校。她终于找到他了！晓是今日的音乐王子，古筝、小提琴、钢琴等乐器，样样精通。他还像从前，那个微笑，那么帅气，那么温柔。可是，他已经有了未婚妻－－寻樱，紧紧拥在怀里。他也忘记了海希和与她过去的回忆！海希决定追回自己的爱情。毕竟，多年前，她早就应该因心脏病而死，却因为要达成与晓的约定，她活到了今天。晓是在妈妈抛弃海希的时候，唯一爱她的人。海希也同时遇见她在五岁的时候，从悲伤里“救出”的男孩－－冰夕。当时，冰夕的爷爷在樱花树下开枪打死了冰夕的妈妈。冰夕觉得樱花很恐怖，它的美丽是因为吸了人的血。海希却说，不是，樱花只是将死去之人的思念集中起来，要冰夕等待另外一个爱他的人。海希在他的眼里，就是天使。今日的冰夕爱上了海希。更复杂的是：晓并不是海希要找的晓。这个晓是海希要找的人的哥哥,而真正的晓已经死了。寻樱也是海希的妹妹。究竟是爱上记忆中的影子还是眼前人？　海希赔上了整个生命去寻…

考试后，我到了图书馆，无意间在书架上看中了一本漫画版的小说。。。《第一次的亲密接触》
。故事描述一位不懂浪漫的男生和患上蝴蝶病的女生在网络上认识。让我痛哭流涕的是女生在临死前写给男生的信。。。

　　如果我还有一天的寿命，那天我要做你的女友。　
　　我还有一天的寿命吗？没有。
　　所以，所以很可惜。我今生仍然不是你的女友。

　　如果我有翅膀，我要从天堂飞下来看你。
　　我有翅膀吗？没有。
　　所以，很遗憾。我从此无法再看到你。

　　如果把整个浴缸的水倒出，也浇不熄我对你爱情的火焰。
　　整个浴缸的水倒得出来吗？可以。
　　所以，是的。我爱你。

Yays, secondhand serenade is back, do support their album~ ^.^

Recently, i watched a bunch of fantasy and action movies which i found very entertaining and worth watching. They are The chronicles of narnia, The golden compass and The spiderwick chronicles. The chronicles of narnia is basically about three children involving themselves with another world- Narnia through an old cupboard in the room.The movie has powerful sound and visual effects. The golden compass is about us humans having daemons attached to us. Daemons are like spirits, attached to us, taking the form of an animal that represents our character.The movie is very exciting and filled with emotions. The last movie, The spiderwick chronicles is most enchanting to me. An enthusiastic researcher got to know of the fairy realm and collected information on the different magical creatures, and compounded them into a book. This brought several misfortunes and Mulgawrath, the evil ogre would like to get his hands on it. Can you imagine that faries lived among the flowers? Would you have loved a brownie who craved honey hiding in your house? Do you know that among dandelions are faries called sylph who can bring you to another world and make you lose track of time? All that is so amazing!The producer even explained that all these were real as the story came from a write-in by the people who encountered these creatures. If you are interested, go watch it!

简单爱

2008-07-27T08:38:00.000-07:00

简简单单

我们都是泡沫轻轻一碰就破
眼泪是爱的火花
昨天就像飞机穿过我的窗口
我什么都没有
我摊开了双手你予取予求
直到你想自由
痛苦的时候我不会闪躲
就像树叶甘心为春风吹落
只是简简单单的爱过
我还是我
简简单单的想过
就不算白活
简简单单的疯过
被梦带走
当故事结束之后
心也喜欢一个人寂寞

这首歌是由林俊杰演唱，它算是一首悲伤的歌。歌里描述的故事大概是说：两个年轻人关系暧昧但把彼此当做好朋友。直到有一天，男生向她告白，却碰了一鼻子恢。转眼间，他失去了一切。经过思考之后，他不再难过，认命了。。。我认为我这年龄的年轻人还不够成熟，还不懂得分辨朋友于情人。有些人畏畏缩缩，不敢表白，而有些人却爱得太汹涌，很多时候造成了悲剧。可是，这一切都是过程，我门必须潇洒放下过去，不让它们拖累着我们，继续往前走。在一个故事的结束，是另一个故事的开始。（这不意味着在失恋后，应该尽快找另一个）

又一次的偶遇

今天，我又再次见到他了。这次，他没有和女朋友在一起，单独骑自行车回家。我也一样，在回家的路途中，在靠近我们彼此家的交叉路口，于他差肩而过。当时，我非常疲惫，转身看到在脚踏车上的男生，我吓了一大跳。我只看到他的侧脸和背就很肯定他就是我从前心上的那个他。他潇洒地骑过马路到了对面，而我只好等到下一个绿灯。他还必须过多一条马路才能到家。我有一种冲动，再次叫他的名子，可是口却不肯开。在等绿灯亮的当儿，他有那么一次转过头看着我，然后若无其事的转过身。他显然是不认得我了。他怎么可以这样！当了那么多年的好朋友竟然能把我忘记！我愣了一会儿，绿灯亮了都没有察觉，绿灯一闪一闪才慌忙过了马路。我看着他的背影渐渐消失。失去了他的踪影后还继续朝那个方向望去。这次的偶遇唤起我从前的回忆，心里也不禁感觉到一阵酸痛。我觉得自己很傻很可笑，都说要把他给忘了，可是说的到容易，做得到难。我想，我还需要多一些时间吧…

　在蜡烛旁的我，一边收听广播，一边翻阅当天的报纸。无意间，我翻到了一篇报道。杀那间，我的心仿佛停止了。我很仔细，一字一句地阅读这份报道－－《四川大地震》。在我国，洪水泛滥和被地震等天灾侵袭能说的上是“家常便饭”，唯有这一次最受我国关注，同时也震撼了全世界。报道里也包括了在地震的丧命者的感人故事：在倒塌的学校找到的尸体之中，有一位孩子还紧握着铅笔。另外，有一位妈妈抱着宝宝，她用自己的躯体保护着怀中的宝宝，被发觉时，宝宝安然无恙，母亲却…我的眼眶泛起了泪水，眼泪簌簌地滑过脸颊。老天怎么又让它发生在其他人的身上？正巧，收音机传来邓丽君优美的歌声：“世上只有妈妈好，有妈的孩子像个宝，投进妈妈的怀抱，幸福享不了…”母亲在我年幼的时候常常给我唱这首歌哄我入睡，可是我已再也没有机会听见她那温柔的歌声。我记起过往为何浪费乐青春，听着呻吟，想象越走越远的幸福，想起从前因为无知而看不到那痛苦的结束…

　　在大约二十年前，我有一个美满的家庭，成员有爸爸，妈妈和讨人喜欢的小宝贝－－我。我们家里并不富有，可是衣食无忧，我已经觉得很幸福了！不料，不知道是不是因为妒忌，天不作美，就有那么一天，我们的村内发生了地震。在我们村里，个家庭的经济能力差别不大，房屋的建造多少有偷工减料，所以在地震发生后，大多数的房屋都倒塌了，我们也不例外。当时，我们家人除了爸爸，妈妈和我在家里。地震刚发生时，只属轻微的震动。妈妈觉得不妙，震动愈来愈强烈。当妈妈把我抱起，从天花板开始以碎片落下。妈妈把我带到这个世界后，体力渐渐衰弱，来不及冲出去，整个房子就这样塌了下来。年幼的我根本不知道发生了什么事，只知道周围一片漆黑，伸手部件五指，所以任性地大哭起来。我的身子突然轻轻摇摆，还传来一个收悉的歌声…喔，是妈妈！不一会儿，我安心地在妈妈的怀里睡着了。我幸运地被救起时，迷迷糊糊的，除了小擦伤之外，没有什么大碍。那是因为妈妈舍命地保护我，替我支撑倒塌的废墟！我非常遗憾没有早点认知这一点，竟连妈妈离我而去都不知道！更让我遗憾的事是妈妈留了一个未完成的简讯在手机里，说明：“宝宝乖，在你看到这简讯时，我应该离开你了。宝宝乖，要是你还活着，别伤心，一定要…”一定要干什么？我一直无法忘怀。　　　　
嗨，我不禁感叹，我正视着漂浮的烛光，隐隐约约看到…她。烛光里的妈妈，妈妈我想对您说，但话到嘴边又咽下，妈妈我想对您笑，眼里却点点泪花。烛光里的妈妈，怎么把我一个人留下？烛光里的妈妈，您的黑发泛起了霜花，您的脸颊印着牵挂，您的腰身倦得不再挺拔，您的眼睛为何失去了光华？妈妈呀，女儿已长大，不愿意继续牵着您的衣襟走过春秋冬夏。慧慧下辈子一定要再做您的女儿，在您的关爱和呵护中成长，这次由女儿来保护您…　
　　　
在这无助的夜里，吹来缓缓轻风。它带着一路上的轻悠来到我的身旁，吹拂我的胸膛，是模不着的温柔。是否您借用了风的手，在安抚我的忧？妈妈！妈妈我明白了－－您的希望！对于我来说，是您给了我生命，那已是非常的足够，我一定会珍惜到永久！所以相信我吧，请您相信现在的这个我！您无怨无悔的爱，我已全部拥有。我的眼角流出的泪绝不会再是懦弱！所以请您不必再担忧，不必再日日夜夜的守护着我了。　
　　
说完，风一次吹灭了烛光，风也渐渐停了，树叶不再沙沙作响，原本轻漂的头发落在肩上。再见了，妈妈…

LINE CAMP

2008-03-12T06:13:00.000-07:00

Hi there, finally had the chance to update the blog. This time, i went to another camp. Yay-yay-yay-yeah! (new cheer i learnt.used when u dunno wad to say)It is a west cluster camp held by Jurong Junior College, known as L.I.N.E Camp.L.I.N.E actually stands for leadership, innovation and enterprise and national education.First,let me introduce the people i knew during the camp or people i got to know better. Student faciliators from JJC:

Zhao Mian-Lg 11's I/C .As qiute a shy person, he tried very hard to make us feel welcome, and he suceeded!He is also someone who is very good at reflections. I think he makes very apt comments,but is quite pessimistic when it comes to talking abt himself because he is JC 1 and is inexperienced.However, i think he really cares for us-Lg 11 a.k.a the-fantastic-4.

Shawn- "Tall" , bubbly and cute! He is good at leading the family and our group in cheers.He can be a very fun and enthusiastic, but when it comes to handling serious things, he is very serious...he also busy himself with our needs.He is the 1st person i know who is allergic to eggs.

Johnathan-taught us(Lg 11) quite a lot of cheers such as the special macho clap adpoted from the moccha advertisement and underwear cheer.He is like superman, sometimes the joker and sometimes the cleaner etc... He became quite close with Briggette.

Peiting- Don't know why but i felt like she was my big sister, some sort of familiarness and so we were quite close throughout the camp. She attended to our many needs.As a food attached,she wented very much to spend more time with us and ended up getting reprimanded.>.<

Jessica- A very emotional person who also have deep thoughts. Due to the fact that she is a games attached.she is unable to spend time with us and is very apologetic about it.However, we do see she has done for us.

Pearlyn-She had to communicate with sign language as she has a sore throat.She is very caring and likes to act cute or emotional by doing her "special move"(joining both index fingers at their ends) A very easy-going person.

Campers:

Briggette-She is another bubbly and easy-going person. She is good at "sa jiao-ing", people are attracted naturally. She likes to confide in a close person. I became her big godsis!

Shin Chieh-A carefree person, who is not pulled down by rules and regulations. A loyal friend.

Edwin-A blur person, who can be humourous at times. He is shy, can blush very easily even though he is tanned. He is sensitive to others feelings. He is called "rubics boy" because he is good at solving it.

On the first day, we were all quite reluctant about going as many of the selected people did not turn up, which resulted in the-fantastic-four.Right after attendance taking and splitting into groups,we had ice-breaker games and cheers.Some new games i learnt were handiplast(hit the person beside u-next person "ouch"-next person "handiplast"-next person repeats the cycle),Mrt (each person choose a mrt station to be called.when one person is called, the other two beside him will have to hit him either on hie shoulders or lap), squirrel and tree(two trees to one squirrel.there are three situations, fire,hunter and earthquake. Fire:trees must move.hunter:squirrels move. Earthquake:all move) and husband and wife(hold each others hand in a circle,a pair will break another pair, in which they must run together opposite direction, competing with the other pair to reach the gap first. Edwin and i were the unlucky ones, who failed for three times. In the end, we started the "super-solid" cheer as a forfeit.Highlights were Telematch and Cluedo. Unfortunately, i was unable to participate as Telematch is a water game and i was having that girl thing... Anyways, Telematch is made up of a series of tasks, such as log roll, turning in circles and cart. At the last part, they have to slide to the end on a improvised slide made from a smooth surfaced banner, on which they poured soap water on. At night, we played Cluedo. We were first given a video to watch, which story goes like this... there was a family of three, the husband abused the wife which was seen by their daughter. The wife was harrassed by another guy and had an affair with the manager(?) . The next day, the manager was dead. Who killed him? That is what we have to find out. We rolled a dice and "travelled" on a giant playboard. Each time we get a clue, we had to go to another place to complete a task. Most of the time, we followed the faciliators blindly, as we were unable to see the clue and were unfamiliar with the school grounds. At a point of time, we were given a hint that the murderer was in the canteen ,and a handcuff. Nearly all teams were there looking for the murderer. We then found him in a deserted corner and he sped off. I was extremely excited when i caught him, grabbing him by the shoulders. Then, other group members(Lg 1) came charging over, tugging at him. In the end, we shared the price. Supper was great! We had muffins and milo. We offered to help the faciliators, but didnt realise it will cause them discomfort. We slept in the hall, it was freezing cold. I counted 26 air-conditioners! Oh ya, i forgot... My favourite activity was mass dance, not that i like the part about pairing up with a boy but dancing! I think the teaching method was quite well although it was kind of draggy teaching step-by-step.
On the second day, we washed up and did some stretching exercises.The highlight was Kinetic Warfare, a water game, and i could play~Actually, they prepared giant man-made pools for us, but due to bad weather, they prepared stations for us. Each station has a different game.I remember there was a game of dog and bone(on soapy water) and passing of water bombs using t-shirts.During lunch, we had to eat lunch with our hands as part of national education like the day before, which we ate with our hands tied to each other.Then, we had L.I.N.E disco. It was so high, especially because of the music, all thanks to the logistics people, the SCDC people for the decorations and dances, and the faciliators who made us jump up and down. That day, we slept in the classrooms. I had difficulty sleeping because of the primary school students, who were still talking and shining their torches. I got all of them to sleep before lying down myself...ZZzzz
The third day was mostly for cleaning up and reflections. Each group was given individual classrooms to do E-web(emotional). Each of us were to thank someone for what he or she has done and pass the end of the string to the next person, just that it goes one by one( there is only one string). When all have received the string, it forms sort of a web.The piece of string was cut into pieces and given to us, which act as "bonds". Next, we had our palms drawn on a piece of paper, and have it passed around for others to write positive comments, which i think is very meaningful. What affected me the most was when the faciliators say that when we help them with food, they feel uncomfortable, as they think they are supposed to lead by example.When we gathered in the hall, we were all quite emotional and Mr Chua had to make it worse...

His speech prompted us to appreciate the faciliators, teachers and parents. We also sang sad songs like "Unbreakable". I was exceptionally touched when Jeremy spoke,he was ill with fever and vomiting and all, and yet he came. We went on to write postcards either to our parents our teachers and filled in a survey form. We hugged and said goodbyes~~~

~the above may not be accurate as it was based on memory~

its finally here... the 4th book of spooks...

2008-03-12T04:40:00.000-07:00

Its finally here.....the 4th book of the spook's apprentice- THE SPOOK'S BATTLE! Woots! I'm reading it now, and will update u all on the book sometime later. ^.^

learning journey

2008-01-16T02:20:00.000-08:00

Today was an exceptionally enjoyable day, so much so that i haf to write it down on me blog and was smiling away the whole day.. ^.^ We have learning fest instead of studying. Of course, thats not the only reason...In the morning, after morning assembly, we had a briefing and then ice-breaker games! The first game was refreshing, "wrap" people in the sarong( under the arms) to be transported from one end to the other,one of them will have to run back to the starting line to "fetch" another group, so on and so forth. It was very exciting, but unfortunately, some ppl fell >.<. Anyways, for the next game, we had to pair up, blow the balloon, tie the balloon and burst the balloon(using our body). Ni wen and some others were really comical, they were helping the others burst their balloon, and they sort of hugged each other. Lastly, we had to arrange ourselves according to our birth dates, without speaking. Thus, in the end, everyonr was using handsigns. Next, we played a memory game. It includes looking of a film or picture and answering questions given and solving the mystery~ I thought all my brain cells were going to die... Worst still, there's a time limit given for the activity and there is this alarm... BLARING! Then, it is the activity that i was looking forward to... sandwich making!!! The ingredients were provided-cheese, butter, tomato. cucumber, pineapple,bread, canned sausages and tuna.By the way, for people who dont know, i dun like things like magarine, butter and cheese. Our group had many designs( i did sushi style and "delifrance style"), they were all ....."creative")O.o. In other words, rojak(typical singaporean) Nicholas was the funniest, he anyhow add everything, and he even got Mrs low to try. Mrs low was like:"Is this edible?".After eating up our creations, we had to do some recording. We had to reenact a scene, or rather just the speeches and record them, these will be graded. In the afternoon after lunch, we were off to the museum~ It was so cool! There were lights swinging thru and fro like pendullums(is this how to spell?). We even had a dead "companion" each, which was a device which acts as a tour guide. We had to complete an assignment for this. I was the photographer( fer-taw-gr-a-fer) of the group. There wasnt much words to copy down but more of visual things, we even watched a film. At the end of our , we took some photos. Unknowingly, through these activities, i feel 3E3 has become more united. Yays!
Actually, for me, going anywhere would be fun, only with the right company~ ;)
(hope to be able to update soon~)

2007-12-07T01:59:00.000-08:00

I just came back from prefect camp. I enjoyed the amazing race we played on the first day. We had to go to different sites near Boat Quay area to obtain answers.( A teacher is assigned to each group and we had Ms Chew) Therefore, before that, we planned out our route. Unfortunately, it rained cats and dogs, and we did nt have our ponchos, so we were reprimanded for not predicting bad weather. At the first half of the race, we had to brave the rain, until we reached the Fire Brigade station, where the kind uncle gave us ponchos after we took a tour of the exhibits. At some time, Yee Jeng was asked to be mute as it was evident that she was leading most of the time. The worst task we had to do was to find answers on tombs. Not that i was afraid, but some/most of the words were unclear due to corosion and can you imagine the rain pouring, us in ponchos, and wiping away at tombstones? I think my group was united in the fact that we take care of each other and we go together everywhere. We are also quite organised. However, the secondary ones are way too quiet, i hope they will voice out more so that there will be more suggestions. Oh ya, my groups name is called ATOB(pronounced as ah-to-b)which stands for Always Try Our Best. Very cute right?Overall, i thought i learned a lot during the camp and it was fun, especially with the company. ^.^We created a new cheer for the school! Woots! It goes like this:
Swiss Oi, Oi
I say u say we say what?
I say we Swiss @ the warfront
bom ba, bom ba ba
Swiss @ the warfront
bom ba, bom ba ba
huga, sa
huga, huga
sa, sa
what we wanna be arh?
Swiss student
what we wanna be arh?
Number One
Any sweat?
No Sweat, chicken feet, haha all the way
How far?

Book reviews of my favourite books
1.The last/spooks apprentice by Joseph Delaney
The spook helps to deal with ghouls,ghasts, boggarts,witches and creatures of the dark...He only takes in apprentice who are the seventh sons of seventh sons (which he is himself) as they are able to see thing that normal people can't.It's Thomas J. Ward's turn to be the spook's apprentice.He has a lot to learn and see...yX Gregory The alphabet is the Greek letter gamma.It is a sign for a ghost or a ghast.The cross refers to the grading of how powerful or dangerous the creature is.x=10 which is the lowest grading.
Boggarts Can be friendly or hostile or a mixture of both. Have coarse hairy coats and take on different animal shapes-mainly dogs but lots of cats and a few goats/horses.Boggarts that rap on walls or doors and cause a nuisance are called hall knockers. Often get up to tricks. May throw pots and pans around in the kitchen, smash cups and saucers , and wake up household.Pull bedclothes from bed. Dangerous because unpredictable. Can change into stone chuckers.These are boggarts that throw pebbles or even boulders.All boggatrs are ranked from one to ten. One is the most powerful.Can kill. Need to be artificially bound.Cattle rippers are boggarts that drink blood from cattle.Can cause farmer hardship.Sometimes can change without warning into ull-blown rippers which are boggatrs t hat drink blood from humans.To bind a boggart-Boggarts move up and down ley lines but can be trapped in one place.This is called naturally bound.The lines are actually lines of power underground.,invisible roads that boggarts use to travel quickly from one place to another.Earthquakes can trap boggarts naturally.Or needs to be artificially bound:pit needs to be dug at least six feet deep.for rippers,nine feetpit must be coated with mixture of salt and iron mixed into bone glue.Salt burns a boggartiron burns away its strengthblood placed in pit to lure boggart before stone is dropped into place, sealing it underground
Witches The malevolent means evil.The benign means good.Good witches help neighbours and wider community.Cure warts, coughs ,fevers and other ailments.Call themselves healers rather than witches. If both types of witches are caught by people like people of churches. they are burnt in public.The falsely accused are blamed for witchcraft in error. Sometimes tortured. Their homes are often sealed and sold.
The unaware means a witch who doesn't know she is one. Somtimes able to hurt others by habouring resentments, evil wishing or evil eye.Can either be malevolent or benign.Some use bone magic.Victim frequently dies of shock or blood loss.Finger,thumb and rib bones are most useful.Seventh rib most of all. Bones are usually taken just before dawn.Malevolent witches are usually bone-bound after death. Their spirits are trapped in their bones. To stop them from scratching their way to the surface,thirteen iron bars should be used, set into stone. This also helps to bury the witches head downward.Close to roots of a tree if possible.A powerful malevolent witch can be undead after you kill her and not do anything to her body.They can crawl, slither,or drag her way towards her victim.Body will be soft and pliable and able to ooze into a victim's nose or ears or nose and possess his body.Making sure she doesn't come back is difficult.Can burn or eat the witch's heart.Pit is the method that is less digusting. A witch is afraid of salt, iron, fire and water.Beware of village girls with pointy shoes.
The unquiet dead Ghasts are fragments of spirits that have moved on. Leaving bad part of themselves makes them able to do this.Ghasts repeat what they did again and again(bad part).Usually something done at scene of crime. also ranked from one to ten.Ghasts can only harm you if you are afraid.Sometimes they try to touch you. Squeeze your throat or press on chest to make it hard to breathe.Ghosts are full spirits still trapped on earth and unable to pass on.Sometimes because of the crimes they have commited. Others have regrets or tasks to do.Sometimes ghosts do not know they are dead.Can sometimes be persuaded and asked to move on.Most are malevolent.
Mother malkin Mother malkin uses blood magic.Gets her power from human blood, mainly from children.Gave home and support to young women, without husbands,who were expecting babies.Blood of babies used for magic.She has a son called tusk,related to his name ,he has humongous teeth.He is very strong and dangerous, help to crush young women.What Alice said about possessionThe damned,the dizzy and the desperate.First word used by priests for those they are certain that will go to hell.Second word-A body newly possessed has poor balance and keeps falling over.The possessed may be bad tempered too.So sudden change of personality may give a warning.Desperate is the state of an undead witch wanting to possess a new healthy body.Men are easier to possess than women.
Climax of story Thomas noticed a silver trail on the near river bank. It was a hunched figure.As he looked carefully,he realised she was mother malkin and she was eating a rat raw.Thomas coughed accidentally which attracted the witch's attention. She told him to go over to her.He stood rooted to the ground,so she moved towards him.Without thinking, he lifted the spook's wand. Suddenly it conjured something special, catching the witch a terrible blow on the side of the head.She gave a grunt and fell sideways into the river.To his horror,her left arm reached from the water and grabbeda tussock of grass.Then the other arm reached for the bank and she started to dragged herself out of the water.He forced himself to take a step towards the water and he jabbed the witch with the end of the staff till she lost her grip on the bank.As he walked along the riverbank, he felt a grip at his ankles.When he looked down, he saw a pair of red, glaring eyes.He jabbed at her hand hard but his ankle was jerked violently causing him to fall to the ground and sent the staff flying.She was using him to drag herself out of the water. He saw the staff, he twisted to reach it.At last he reached the staff and thrust it hard at the witch.She tried to protect herself by gripping the other end of the staff but she screamed loudly at the touch of the staff.To his surprise, she gave a deep sigh and became very still.Very slowly, one hand let go of his ankle ,and the other released the staff and she slid down the bank into the river softly...but this is not the last of Mother Malkin yet.
The book gets more interesting each time as Thomas unveals the unknown to you.

Marak and Kate was able to see where Em was through the water mirror.The king brought guards to rescue Em and in order not to let Kate break her promise, he "tied" Kate to him with magic. At the Hallow Lodge, Hugh was given a Stamp of truth on his tongue, pouring out all his plans of getting rid of the sisters. Goblins love revenge, Marak casts a spell on Hugh which makes him do crazy things, this was a wrong move as it nearly caused the extinction of goblin kind.

Her hair was twisted and puffed into a swirl on her head and with a strand of hair loose. She was dressed skimpyly with lots of bare skin.Marak was dressed barbaric too, looked like a peasant in an old tale. Firstly, out of the room, her wrists were chained to a stone table, she was slashed from the bends of her wrist down to the centre of each palm by Marak, blood collected in a bowl. Marak did the same to himself. After adding some powder, the blood blended to become thick red vapour with a silvery mist, in the end silvery pink cream. Marak rubbed it on Kate's wounds. the lines on her palm would tell the lives they live and Marak has a skip between the line.Next table, she was to kneel on a cushion, Marak cut both their fingernals using a golden sword and fed it to the fire.He also gave Kate's loose hair to the fire, again their blood, forming silver ash.Marak rubbed the sword with the ash and slide it down her hair, back and shoulder. A golden snake appeared coiling itself around kate and became flat on her skin. It was the King Wife Charm, it would harm/bite anyone who endangers the King's Wife's life, including the wife herself.

Marak has Seylin to take charge as he will not be summoned. Marak had wanted to prepare spells but it was too late. Kate got advice from Argatha and decided to save the goblins. Kate left the kindom through the water mirror, she imagined the stars in Liverpool and she ended in the lake as what she saw was a reflection. She met a kind woman on the train who got her a coachman-Bingham to drive her straight to Liverpool, but he was interested in her jewels, tried to kill Kate and was bitten by the snake. She abandoned the carriage and saw Thaydar's spirit.She followed him to a dirty house , saw the decaying body of Hulk and was captured by the soccerer who thought she was a soceress.He summoned all the goblins to kill Kate but all refused.He commanded the best of them all-Marak, who was not in the least afraid of her. She tried to persuade Marak and he was hesitating.when Marak raised the sword in his right hand, he pushed Kate with the other.The socerer commanded him again, this time, Kate is on the floor vulnerable. He awoke when Kate said she was carrying the Heir, also helping to deal with the bad guy. However, it was the snake who did it again.She freed caged animals but killed dangerous ones she found.She even got a human baby(matilda,named after a King's wife), two wolves, a monkey and a rat. Kate released the goblin's spirits from the jar which would escape into their body. But Marak's jar was only half full. She burnt the house to release the spirits.Marak was ill for months.

十月十号，我终于如愿以偿，再见到了他一面。由于是克兰之中学的开放日，我陪着小六的妹妹，妈妈和阿姨到哪儿参观。我看到他的时候，他正穿着篮球队的衬衫，懒散地靠着栏杆。我第一眼见到他，他也望着我，我们的眼神交流。。。我又惊讶又害羞地转过身（180度），停住了脚步。我心想：我不是很想和他说话的吗？可是现在人那么多。。。我一句话也说不出。妈妈和阿姨问我发生了什么事。我打发了他们，叫他们继续往前走，留下我和妹妹（她知道我和他之间的事）。顽皮的她硬逼我转回身，然后跑掉了。

我抬头望着他，他也看着我，他那惊讶的眼神好象一直都在盯着我。他还是老样子，长得不是很高，瘦瘦的，戴着眼镜，那么英俊、那么斯文。我又想起他和一位女生在一起的那一幕。我一边望着他，一边退后了两步，然后掉头就走了。过后，我的心情跌入谷底，做什么事都提不起劲。
~爱真的需要勇气去相信会在一起~

美丽的误会

今天，课外活动后，疲惫不堪的我乘搭地铁回家。由于已经是五点半，是放工时间，车厢里拥挤的很。起初，我还不敢挤进去，因为实在太多人了，大多数还是男性，但是最后说了一声“对不起”，赶在车门关上前上了车。在车厢里非常辛苦，“动弹不得”，必须保持平衡，才不会撞到其他人（可我已经很累了！）。抵达了下一个站（choachukang),场面一片混乱，人们急着进去和出来,弄得我心情烦躁。有一位搭客从外面进来，碰撞到我的右肩。在他结巴地连忙向我道歉时，我打量了他一番。他身材矮小，看起来不年轻，傻乎乎的，穿着轻便的汗背心和短裤，较阔的脸颊，古铜色的肌肤，下巴还长着又乱又粗的胡子。他就在我的旁边也算是前面，因为我们实在靠得太近了！他一定是个变态，样子古怪就算，还三番两次地偷瞄我！我感到不舒服就尽量退后了一步，离他远一点儿。没想到，他看见我的举动就低声细语地问：你要下车了啊？我呆住了，我张开了嘴，却什么都说不出，只好傻傻地点了点头。就当地铁抵达了Yew Tee 车站，车门渐渐张开时，他用他那沙沙的嗓子大声说：“有人要下车，请让开！”我很惊讶，不只是我，其他搭客也吓得闪到一旁。当然，我也因为心中的误会而感到不好意思。虽然他说的话没有我所描述得那么标准，但这一些都不重要了。刚才苦着脸的我，笑了。我“顺利”地踏出地铁，转了回头想向他道谢，可是地铁已经神速地从我眼前消失。。。

最近在93.3电台听到了一个故事，觉得挺有意思∶
有一个工人，在工厂上班时，不见了手表。他找着找着都找不着。连大伙儿也一起找，翻箱倒柜的，还是找不到。他们只好失落地去吃午饭。过后，一个小男孩进了工厂，很快就找到了手表。大伙儿问他是怎么找到的，他说：“我躺在地上，听到滴答滴答的响声就找到了”。
我们往往在忙碌和吵闹中，忽略了一些事。要是静下来，可能会有意外的收获！

很久很久以前，我们的国家于另外一个国家开战。不幸的，我们在最后一刻败下阵来，让敌人占领了我们的城堡。为了夺回我们的城堡，国王下旨要我们这些平民百姓受训成为骑士。
这就是我在假期里所参加的领导训练营的主题。
抵达了露营地点，我的第一个印象是这里不怎么样。大概是主办商为了节省开支，厕所让我“大跌眼镜”，它没有木或铁门，只有折叠式的拉门，马桶怎么冲，还是黄色的，从花撒(shower sprinkler)的水是几滴几滴地慢慢流出来，吊衣服的地方也没有。还有，打包的食物油腻，米粒也受到众人的批评。但是，经过了他们安排的活动和游戏后，我发现这一切都不重要，最重要的是，这次的露营让我获益不浅。我不后悔参加了这个露营活动，因为它让道理和学习之处(learning points)深深地刻在我们的脑海里。让我印象深刻的有几项活动。第一，在一场考体力和耐力的友谊赛里的其中一项活动，每一组（十五个人）必须派出十个组员一起连续跳十次的跳绳。我这组（pegassus)是比赛的最后一组，还未完成跳绳这一关。我们尝试了很多次，想了许多改进的办法，得了其他组员们的鼓励，但还是不成功。我们已经筋疲力尽了。终于，教练Gopal问我们是否要放弃，我和组员不约而同地喊“不！”教练Gopal限我们在十分钟完成。“一骂惊醒梦中人”，我们休息后，第一次就成功了。第二，我们必须完成五百片的拼图。在开始拼图之前，我们需要找出被藏着的拼图。我们这一组又再次落后，但惊喜是我们第一个完成拼图，当时大概是晚上十一点。我们也需要等其他组完成，不管我们多么想见周公，我们还是去帮助他们。北极熊的拼图特别难完成，因为差不多整个拼图都是白色的。那一天，我们破了记录，早上四点多才睡觉。第二天早上我算不清楚自己打了几次哈欠。最后少不了最精彩，“打仗”的时候。（to be continued)

2007-08-25T03:26:00.000-07:00

　　　　　　　　　　我是谁？
嗨，我是乖乖女（很多人都那么称呼我）－慧玲。我的长相不怎么样，我甚至觉得自己的样貌奇怪，不像华人也不像洋人，有点像马来人又有点像日本人。我有披肩，乌黑的长发，瓜子脸，浓眉大眼，稍微翘的鼻子，挺大的嘴巴，古铜色的肌肤和过得去的身材（才1.6米）。还有，我有很多白头发！有人说是因为我营养太多了。但我比较赞成的理由是我想太多了／压力太大。我平时一有空就会想东想西，有一次，下雨天，我不知道胡思乱想什么，不小心滑倒了，还好没有人看到。
我是典型的嘴硬心软的人。平时看起来泼辣又凶的我其实是个容易满足的人。我性格稍微孤僻，比较习惯独来独往，除了一些好朋友以外。我很诚实的，我承认自己是个吝啬鬼。简单的来说，我很节省，每天上学，除了搭地铁，我坚持走，礼物也只送给很要好的朋友。这样，我也觉得，会让收到礼物的人觉得受到重视吧。可能是因为我有妹妹，而家人都比较会花钱的原故吧。我也是个重感情／情绪化的人，容易掉泪（不是爱哭鬼！），看某种电影就会像水龙头－川流不息。相同的，我看到别人哭，就会不知所措。爸爸说我是傻大姐，总是七手八脚（clumsy)，不是打破这个就是打破那个东西，也很健忘，经常忘记把东西放在哪里。所以，房间不是很整齐，要是仔细找找，肯定会找出“不见”的东西。我是个急性子，没有耐性。但奇怪的是，我喜欢做D.I.Y像十字绣之类的东西。除此之外，我也热中于唱歌和跳舞。受到了爸爸的影响，我还蛮好动的，特别是球类运动如排球、羽球、乒乓球、网球等等。我喜欢雨天。它不只让人感到格外的凉爽，也能鼓起我心里最深处的感情（包括小学时的回忆），想起诗情画意，所以在雨天，我会变得比较冷漠，脾气也比较暴躁

珍惜

2007-08-03T21:25:00.000-07:00

珍惜

我爱的亲人一个个地离去，每一位都好像带走了我心里的一部分。
外公在我还没来到这世界就逝世了，没看见过他的我很遗憾，想着渐渐衰老照顾着我的外婆，想必外公人也因该不错。就因为这样，我总是向外婆问东问西，“外公长什么样子？外公人很好吧？。。。”

爷爷虽然很凶，但平时最疼我和妹妹了。每当爸爸不让我们出去买东西，爷爷就会带我们出去，说是去散步，其实是带我们去买喜欢的零食。爷爷最喜欢吃咸的东西，差不多什么食物都一定要有酱油或盐，也没有人敢阻止他。不幸的，在很多年的累积，他患上了肾脏病，在我还很小的时候向我告别，妈说他永远也不会回来了。到现在，我还收着他送的糖果，不舍得吧它吃完。

奶奶在爷爷走后，感到沮丧，对我说话怪怪的，什么要听爸爸妈妈的话之类的。奶奶和我们一起住在同一屋檐下，每天我从学校回来，就会有热腾腾的晚餐等着我们。我最喜欢吃奶奶的花生猪肉粥了！由于爸爸妈妈工作忙碌，奶奶会听我说委屈和心事。奶奶从很久以前就得了风湿病，在下雨天就会着我替她柔柔脚，我很担忧，但每次关心她的时候，她会嫌我囉唆。一年后，我终于明白了奶奶的话，她早就知道自己很快就会去陪爷爷了。原来奶奶不只得了风湿病，也有糖尿病。为什么不告诉我呢？！在奶奶火化的时候，我一直憋着泪水，平时冷漠的爸爸竟然大哭起来。每当想起她那慈祥的脸，我的泪就会不由自主簌簌地从眼眶流下。

今天，老师告诉我们一个故事。。。得了老人痴呆症的爸爸指着打印机问那是什么，小明老实地回答。但老人家听了一下子就忘了，不停地问同样的问题。小明不耐烦的说：“说了那么多次还不懂，真笨，不要来烦我！”　小明忘了，在他小的时候，总是好奇地问东问西，爸爸总会不厌其烦地解释，从没对他发脾气。但如今，爸爸老了，儿子嫌他慢，嫌他烦，一定觉得很心痛。现代人就是如此，翅膀硬了，学会飞了，抛弃或嫌弃养育他们父母。

经过了这一切，好像改变了我。每当我看见老人过马路，我就会自动地走在马路的最外边，心里好象想着：车辆要是撞过来，就现撞到我，我自己也不明白这感觉。我对爸爸妈妈的态度也好像好转了，变得会撒娇，粘妈妈很紧的乖孩子。其实，我已经学到了珍惜。

人吗，酸甜苦辣，悲欢离合，都是人生的一部分，要经历过这些才能成长呀！

水

2007-07-21T19:43:00.000-07:00

我最享受的是在夜黑人静时，在星光闪烁的夜晚，到海边，吹吹海风，呼吸海的味道。少不了听它那泼涛汹涌的声音，那么残忍，另一方面又好象为某个谁哭泣。水是我们不可获缺的，少了它，不到三、四天就会 x_x，可是它所带来的危害也不小。

最近，新闻爆满了它“伤天害理”的消息，豪雨不断，洪水泛滥，造成重庆，英国等地方受淹水。每当有水灾，就会有死伤，几人失踪，房屋受损或倒塌，电源和交通受影响。打乱了人们的生活，让经济损失惨重，把人们冲走的是水。上一次的海啸带走了上万个人，还让我难以忘怀。　　　　　　　　　　　　

我国现在全民动员是为了防止什么？连小孩都会回答－－伊蚊滋生，而伊蚊是这么滋生的？－－水。伊蚊会让我们人类患上骨痛热症－发烧不退和身体酸痛，还能致人与死地，很恐怖吧？它能做的事还多的是呢。

但我仔细聆听，海使劲地冲向我，好象在对我诉说，这一切都不是它愿意的。仔细想想，其实所有事除了自然元素，应该从我们人类算起。天破晓了，太阳公公徐徐从地平线升起，被海风吹着的头发停了，海也平静下来了，仿佛是为了多了一个了解它的人而感到欣慰…

爱上家旗的时候

2007-06-16T19:34:00.000-07:00

在小二的时候，我交了一位很要好的朋友，他长得傻傻的，但和我非常谈得来，我们粘得像麦芽糖。他不仅是我的同学，和我也在同一个托儿所，我们的家距离一条马路，连他的爸爸也认识我。我们总是在一起，一起上学，到托儿所，回家。我们平时喜欢拿考试分数来做比较，同时鼓励彼此。
为什么人一定要长大呢？要是我知道这一切将发生，我宁可不长大。。。
我们都长大了，思想成熟了，有了新的念头，他也“变”帅了。我竟然喜欢上了他。而他却渐渐和我疏远，交了新的男性朋友。这我明白，毕竟我是个女生。我们得暧昧关系让同学们议论纷纷。他停止和我说话，故意避开我。

有一次，补习课后，我准备从学校走到托儿所。突然乌云蔽日，打雷闪电，下起倾盆大雨。在学门内的我，连忙放下书包，反找雨伞，赫然发现雨伞落在家里！这时，他默默无声地掷给我他唯一的伞，然后自己冒着雨跑到托儿所。这举动让我感到很惊讶，在回去的路途中，心里浮起一种非笔墨能形容的感觉，让我印象深刻。

上中学后，我走独木桥，他走阳光道，根本没有联络（我们上不同的中学）。我第一次遇见他，看见他和女友在一起。我宁可他没把雨伞借给我。我不只心碎了，也失去了我最好的朋友。我不想，我不想，不想长大……

听说，他变成了个心猿意马的花花公子，成绩也不怎么好。虽然我不奢望从他哪儿得到什么好处，我无论如何都很想和他见面，把事情弄清楚。

我以为没有人能再把我的心锁打开，但是我错了。。。

他就像空气，是我不可缺少的，他总是无声无锡地出现，就能逗我笑，让我呼吸。幸运的是，他先向我告白。我傻傻的以为是真的，说要先和他交个朋友，后来却发现我什么都不是。它渐渐飘走，让我透不过气。我对它来说应该只是一张纸。他有了另一张纸，便再我身上画上句号，把我撕烂，把我丢掉。我不明白这是不是爱，但我停止呼吸，休息一下下。我至少还有朋友指引方向。

经历过那么多失望，我不再期望，也不希望有人能帮我解放,愿时间会让我慢慢遗忘。。。想问上天，为什么我认识的男生都是这样。。。

当我读了东方少年3里的《冰糖化了》，我很有感触。女主角和唐冰（男主角）跟我和他原本的关系相似，是那么纯洁令人羡慕。两个故事的结局都让人感伤，我是因为喜欢他而一拍两散，但是她是因为唐冰病逝才于他分隔两地。我非常欣赏作者的写作手法，把唐冰比喻成冰糖，她喜欢在吃药时吃冰糖就像她喜欢唐冰这个朋友。如此以来，故事有感染力。作者保留这冰糖为了的是要记住唐冰，但觉得没这个必要，因为他已经深深地刻在我和她的心里。。。

其中一个篇章的读后感

2007-06-16T18:47:00.000-07:00

其中一个篇章的读后感

一家之主：这故事是来自《我的爸爸妈妈》，从它的题目《一家之主》，我能猜到作者的故事是关于他的爸爸。我认为故事里的爸爸更像黑社会老大，无论是言行或举止上。但是调皮的作者很了解，也“大方”地接受爸爸的野蛮。作者利用了三个写作技巧：幽默，夸张和比喻。幽默，当他形容爸爸“收拾”他的情景－“One,把我踢倒在地；Two,抄家伙；Three,斯下君子的面具，动手”；“打起我来那真是比李连杰还潇洒”。夸张－形容爸爸的叫声为”雷鸣般的吼声”。比喻－“耳朵已经如兔儿般被一把抓起”。作者把故事写得很自然，亲切，好笑又可爱因为他在故事里参杂了英语和“哇噻”之类的口头禅，这是吸引我的地方，我自己也喜欢用这种写法。尽管如此，他也用了不少好句如“胳膊拧不过大腿”和“识时务者为俊杰”等等。除此之外，我觉得作者应该是没有母亲，才会那么了解爸爸，因为通常爸爸和孩子的关系没有那么密切，但有时也得看爸爸的性格如何。我蛮羡慕他的。我的爸爸很少和我说话，脾气大，经常用滕鞭打人。害怕他可能就是我们之间的鸿沟。但爸爸曾经说过，父母之间一定需要一个做“坏人”，我同意这一点。我更气的是爸爸非常计较和妈妈的钱，爸爸负责妹妹，妈妈负责我。爸爸带我们出国玩，妈妈还需要还他钱。你说过不过分？！还有，他买万字票也抄股票，怎么劝也不听。他总是叫我们做这做那，自己却只顾自己的，叫我们怎么心服？

最喜欢东方少年的部分？？

最喜欢东方少年的部分？？

东方少年实在太妙了，我喜欢的部分有太太太多了，尤其是后面的部分。第一个，是《一本正经》。它的图画很引人入胜，很像，很滑稽，也很可爱。有时用图画代替文字，能让我们动动脑子，很有趣。它的故事的“名子”吸引人，容易理解，内容又好笑，相信蛮多人会喜欢。第二，《传感线路》。它利用问问题来分析你的性格。虽然它不是百分百可信，但对我来说还算准确，买一份安慰，认识认识自己也不错。因为平常很少有人告诉你你的性格对他们是这么样的，什么值得学习，什么令人讨厌等等，反省反省。第三，《作文100分》。它的故事又短又简单，但却是你意想不到的。第四，《老编热线》。它／他能听你讲心事，建议你办法解决问题。我读过了后，发现学生关心的是早恋和考试。它的实录很贴近，对自己苦恼的问题也可能有帮助。第五，《成语释读》。它用故事解释得详细又有趣，能让像我对成语一窍不通的人理解。还有，它解释的成语很经常能用。最后，《东方少年乐园》。当当侦探，答答趣味题，碰碰运气就能得到小礼物。虽然有些问题有点欠扁，但有些能让你动动脑子，绞尽脑汁，不妨一试。我真的很罗素，但它的图画实在太好看了！！！

人生如戏，我不在乎天长地久，只在乎曾经拥有。。。

你是否肯和我作朋友？？？

虽然它比失去更痛苦，

只要尝过幸福，

就该心满意足。

小读者和东方少年的分别

小读者和动方少年的分别

小读者的篇章和东方少年比较，小读者的故事很真实，较为贴近我们生活。小读者的故事大多是真人真事，　不然就是描述风景或天气，很生动，很感人，很有启发性，能让我将情景“画”　在脑海里。我从中学到了　很多深奥的词语和这么描述风景或天气，并且在作文中能更深入的表达自己。故事有感染力和启发性，让人不得不赞不绝口。写关于父母跟孩子的故事特别感人,有的还教我孝顺父母之道，学到了很多额外的东西。但是我觉得字体太小了，字又多，看得我眼花缭乱，有时还会头晕，还好有“小读者自荐的画选，让我在累的时候欣赏他人的画作。东方少年虽然有几个篇章是描写季节，但大多数是虚幻的不可能在现实生活中出现的。故事里有我意想不到的东西，这一点值得赞赏，因为他能让我动动想象力，创意写作。我特别喜欢关于爸爸妈妈的抒情文。不仅如此，我还学到了幽默和夸张的写作技巧，少不了学到一些生词。但我认为有些故事太荒唐／假了，有些我根本不明白有些故事的意义何在。东方少年，我特别喜欢“奇人托尔托罗”。这故事说明两位好朋友潘迈克和劳里，制造了一个拥有热情和知识的机器人，托尔托罗。潘迈克把这完美的人类当成自己的孩子。劳里的女儿却利用他对她的爱，要求要托尔托罗当她的玩伴。他们倆计划将托尔托罗的记忆删除，频频失败，但最后还是成功了，托尔托罗把“爸爸”给忘了。当托尔托罗问潘迈克：“我认识你吗？”，潘迈克感到很失落和愤怒。。。我非常期待续集。东方少年的字体刚刚好，图画也很有趣和可爱。总的来说，我比较偏爱东方少年。小读者的语文和内容实在太好了，但是字体需要大一点，故事也应该避免挤在一起，就天衣无缝了。东方少年的内容不错，字体和图画都适宜，也有些有趣，题外的部分（就像周刊一样），让我爱不释手。＾.＾
