Details of Song of Revolutions

I choose "Song of Chinese Civil Revolution" as my song of revolution. It's talking about the time of 1920s in China. At that time, Northern China and part of Southern China were ruled by Beiyang armies, which were sort of controlled and helped by the western country. Also, most part of Southern China was ruled by Republic of China, which was found by Sun Yat-sen. Because this song was written by the person in Republic of China, so the song's about mostly talked about eliminating Beiyang armies and reviving China.
As you can hear, this song exactly sounds same as French ballad, "Two Tigers". Well, during that time, circumstances of China was quite unstable and nervous that the war was easily occurred in any time, at any moment, thus I think that the lyricist might wrote the lyrics down hurriedly.

Quickwrite -- Duty & Friendship

You have a date with your old friend you've known for 12 years next Monday. However, you just knew that there is going to be a band performance next Monday, too, and you must be in the band performance because you are one of the members in the band. Your friend who didn't see him for lots of years is going to be here next Monday, and you and he had already set the date, but as a band member, you can't be absent in the performance. What will you do if you are right in this kind of dilemma??
This is very hard to decide, because both are very important, you won't want to betray your old friend after all. There is going to be lots of chance to perform on stage in the band in the future, and the chance to meet your old friend is quite rare. If you are a trust friend, and you have a trust band member, I guess band members would like you to go see your old friend, and you'll be happy at that time, too.

Quickwrite -- Under Pressure

In the war, soldiers in the battlefield are right in the high stakes, and they can be killed and die in sudden. However, even a worm will turn, what the soldier or general in the high stakes do sometimes can change the situation in the war, and the destiny of the army could change. But there are still some variables when you are in the high stakes and do something that could make things worse than the original situation.
One of the main reason that students in school cheat is that they didn't prepare for the test. That's exactly the stupid action only occurs when students are in the high stake. Thus, you can see that sometimes when you are in the high stakes, what you do can be unusual, makes things worse, or masses up everything.
Sometimes, the crime such as killing people is also due to the high-stakes situation. For example, the person named Allen originally just want to steal the old lady's purse, but old lady strongly resists him so that Allen become anxious and take out his knife to chop the old lady and bring out the trouble. What he does could make his entire life and future miserable, so just don't do anything silly when you are in the high stakes, or you will might regret what you do. THINK before you do!!

Quickwrite -- Vengeance

When people get hurt or be taken advantage of, they might take actions to hit ones who hurt them or injury them back, since this could make them feel better that they expressed their feeling of anger or suffering. However, the action of revenge sometimes doesn't make you feel better, instead it leads you to tragedy and make you feel more miserable and depressed.
There's a very perfect example on today Daily News. It said that a man who raped the girl had been punched and chopped for 6 times by the girl's boyfriend. Girl's boyfriend was really upset with the girl's superior, the one who had raped the girl, so he ran to the superior's house to hit the superior. However, his fury of the superior wasn't completely eliminated. After that, he went to the hospital where the superior was located to chop the superior with the knife for 6 times and ran away. Well, 2 days after, he and her girlfriend had commit suicided by sniffing carbon smokes in airtight motel room because of guilts. After their bodies were founded by polices, both's parents were extremely sad and crying. The police denoted sadly that they still had possibility of having probations if they didn't decide to suicide.
According to this upon and actual social news, we can know that sometimes hatreds in your heart can't be too over, or it doesn't make you feel better, instead it leads you to the tragedy that you can't restore. Buddha and Christ both had said that we should forgive people who has guilts, although they made you feel suffer or miserable before. Forgiving is the best way to redeem what you lost.

Quickwrite -- The Grass is Always Greener On the Other Side

Envious is a kind of situation that forms when you believe that having what someone else has will make you happier, or when someone has the thing you want to have for a long time. This kind of situation often makes people jealous and ignore something better we have. This kind of situation also makes people neglect the advantages of itself.
However, these kinds of negative effects, like neglecting the advantages of yourself, often also make you have less self-confidence. While I was in 7th grade, because of my less confidence on PE, I was often distinguished from other people who were good at sports. I usually envied their skill of sports, and dreamed about I could be such like them. However, this just made me feel less confidence on PE. In 8th grade, I started to catch up my sports skill and strength my body to make myself stronger. Now I have more confidence than before, especially on PE.
