Hayley Westenra - Amazing Grace (Live)

This was the aria one

Amazing Grace

Since the dawn of history, there had a large amount of songs, most of them passed into oblivion, some of them were bequeathed and been handed down for generations. In those songs passed down for years, just a few of them were song by many different singers in different ways,

Amazing Grace is the most famous one.


Amazing Grace was produce by John Newton, in 18 century. This song was sing about a person who was very bad and disbelieving God but he had the salvation form God, and he finally know the goal of his life.


Amazing Grace has been singing by many singers in many different styles, like aria, rosk’n roll, and R&B. Every styles have it’s unique parts, and every singers have their special parts.


What roles do music play in my life?

In my point of view, music can make me relax. Especially after a very busy day, some ballads will make me feel relaxed and more comfortable. I think music can recharge me, make me vitally to face another busy day.

Music also can make me release those bad moods which are deep in my heart. When I was in a bad mood, like missing home very much, I would listening some music singing about going home or missing home, although someone said that might make me feel worse, I thought that would make me release my bad moods, and after listening music I would feel better.

Sometimes when I am in the singer’s moods, I would finally realize what he or she is singing about. Before that, what I know was very apparent, but when I was in the singing’s moods I would be touched deeply in side my heart. I think this would make people more unworldly, and that is music another use.

Making me relax and recharge me, making me release, and make me unworldly are what roles music play in my life.

The Ju Ware Narcissus Basin(汝窯天青無紋橢圓水仙盆)


In all the displays of National Palace Museum, I like Ju Ware Narcissus Basin(汝窯天青無紋橢圓水仙盆) the most. It dose not as famous as Jadeite Cabbage or Meat-shaped Stone but I think it is the most beautiful masterpiece in National Palace Museum.

There is a legend that an emperor said to his liegeman about the most wonderful color of the glaze “the color of glaze should be as the sky after the rain stops and the clouds have broken through ” (雨過天青雲破處,者般顏色作將來). I think the Ju Ware Narcissus Basin’s color is conform to what the emperor had described because the Ju Ware Narcissus Basin’s color is so like the color of sky after rains, and there is no any cracks on it, so level and smooth, so glassy it is!

In ancient China, there is four principles to described a perfect china “ as blue as the sky, as bright as the mirror, and as thin as the paper.” I think the Ju Ware Narcissus Basin matches all the principles, so I think it is the best china in the world, that is way I like it so much

A visit to National Palace Museum

Yesterday, November 24, I went to National Palace Museum(故宮博物院)with my classmates. Because we have to do our Chinese homework so we went to the museum at 9:00 A.M.

When we arrived the museum, there were already had a lot of foreign tourists, most of them come form Japan, they usually speak softly to each others, some tourists are from Korea, they talk in a little loud volume, some are from China, they usually speak in a very loud voice, I thought it was very bad because that would made the museum into a market. Expect Japanese, Korean, and Chinese, we also saw some French and English, we discovered that we, Taiwanese, were less than those foreigners, we were wondering that National Palace Museum is a museum in our country, or in foreign country. I thought we should spend more time to visit this museum because those things in the museum, are our above price treasure, we should be more concentrate on them.

After a half day visiting, we saw many beautiful artworks, each of them were time-tested, I think the fad would quickly passed away, but the authentic treasure would still beautiful even thousand years later. Most of exhibits would collections from the royal family, some of them even were appreciated by emperors, it was hard to believe that exhibits in front of you were in front of many emperors centenaries ago, and it was a sigh that things change with the passing of years but those artworks never change. Those refulgent dynasties and great people were no longer exist, but their masterpieces were pass down for thousands of years. I like to visit museum because those artwork stand the time-tested, that attract me more than those fad

The midterm week

The past one week, from November 12 to November 20 was the midterm week of my school. The first day, November 12, I had a Calculus exam, actually I did not work hard on it, I knew the result would not be good, and I should work harder on it. The next was the Economics exam on the Wednesday afternoon, I thought it would be better than my Calculus exam but I should work harder on it, too. The third one was my English Listening exam, and this I thought I would had a good result on it but I did not finished it so I should notice on my speed of answering questions, and do not wasting time. The forth was my Chinese exam, I thought it was the best one, because I wrote many, I wished I could get a good result on it. The next one was my Accounting exam on the next Tuesday, November 20, it was the most important one, and I thought it was also the hardest one, and the one I spent the most time on, I thought the result was not very good but I would not give up, I would practice more and wish the next time would have a good result. The final one was my Outline of Civil Code exam, teacher mentioned almost every question in the test but I still miss it, so I should be more concentrate on the class. After all exams were past, I thought I was tired to dead, some of my classmate were went to shopping but I just want to sleep in my nice and warm bed. I thought these exams let me know that I should work harder and practice more on every course. I wish the next time I was apoise to them, and I also wish I would have good results one every one of them.
