chinese courts are so far from being independent that to use its verdict on such a politically charged case to prove the validity of either side's claim is pretty much pointless. and i say this not because i'm an "angry youth" but because of the institutional links between the party, state and courts.

ah, i really hated this movie. it was so earnest in wanting to be relevant to current events that it became a caricature. the story did not have any purpose other than helping to make the value judgment already obvious in the first frame: tyranny bad. i adore the lovely np, but she seems to have los...

if i rememebered correctly, there's a raging western union scam going on now, so much so that ebay is no longer allowing it. even if there weren't, this is clearly not normal. just block his email and avoid further contact.

well i think fashion went through a total love affair with jeans... less so now. this past summer it was all about dresses (on the bad side, it's also been all about leggings. ew.)--it's hilarious to see the usually hoochie brands turn out demure little dresses.

true religion was hot for a while... now i think the hottest are j brand, habitual, paige, level 99, etc.--none of which i've tried. the shape has completely changed. now it's either skinny or wide-legged (but not flared). the skinny look could be really, really ugly but i like some variations of it...

国内很多人都觉得东欧国家象波兰应该很怀念社会主义时期，可是我们的波兰人都非常痛恨俄罗斯，说：看看它对我们都做了什么！他会讲俄语，可以读俄国作品，都是小时候一定要学的。这是洗脑成功？不成功？有个克罗地亚女孩，有一次一起去听讲座，她突然跟我说，你有没有觉得讲话的那个人长得象列宁？学校里总有画像的。邻居总是讨厌邻居，瑞典芬兰挪威这样的都半开玩笑半认真。稍微离得远一点的，都非常不解：你们不是差不多的么。我一直不明白这是为什么。 "东欧国家象波兰应该很怀念社会主义时期" that's coz chinese never learned about how the soviet union trea...
