路思義教堂英文介紹
這篇是介紹台中東海大學教堂的文章，先放一下，可以先跳過^^
摘自交通部觀光局 Travel in Taiwan, 2011/7.8月
Long a focal point of the bucolic Tunghai University campus, the Luce Chapel, completed in 1963, stands in the middle of a sprawling park o the university grounds, it’s tapered walls covered by glazed diamond-shaped tiles that gleam during the daylight hours. Designed by the renowned architect I. M. Pei, whose notable buildings include the Louvre Pyramid in Paris and Hong Kong’s Bank of China Tower, the church sits on an irregular hexagonal base, and the structure itself rises into a triangular, tent-like form. The interior walls feature thick, diamond shaped coffers that diminish in size toward the ceiling.
Floor-to-ceiling windows at the entrance and behind the altar ensure a steady flow of natural light. The chapel is regularly filled with the faithful for the Sunday morning service – with seating of 500 – and their hymns ring our across the park. The sturdy design is both beautiful and practical, with concrete ribs that thicken as they descend along the church’s curved surfaces, providing reinforcement against earthquake damage. The church was named in honor of Reverend Henry W Luce, an American missionary who went to China in the late 19th century to spread the gospel and wound up staying for over four decades – the father of famed publisher Henry R. Luce.

來去看...賽德克巴萊
今天下午請了家長日補修，十二點多交代完班務，以逃難般的速度殺到電影院看賽德克巴萊，很早就想來看了，一直找不到時間，而且已經在新聞哇哇挖和民視的台灣演義看過兩次完整的介紹霧社事件，所以很期待在大螢幕前好好的看這齣'史詩'般的巨作!
沒有讓我失望，但是意猶未盡，因為只看了上集太陽旗，中間聽到莫那魯道談話有被催淚一次，但我知道後段的故事更催淚，我前兩次光看電視節目說明就掉淚了，感覺很迫不及待想看下集彩虹橋.... 看完心中的感覺很複雜，又是讚歎又是難過，不過還好有先了解這個故事的始末，很快就入戲了....
看完電影，可以強烈的感受到被'文化滅族'的痛苦，也體會到不同的文化，真的要彼此尊重；不過，在以前那樣戰亂的時空背景下，'獵場'，就是人類為了存活最真實的寫照吧!
下圖:剛出電影院，還沒出戲勒~ 百感交集、感覺頭很重! 再飆回家接小孩去跳舞~

A-Ha--Crying In The Rain
這首歌好懷舊哦，高中時去買A-Ha的卡帶，現在好像還在某個抽屜裡，聽到這首歌感覺真開心......
作詞：Howard Greenfield/Carole King 作曲：Howard Greenfield/Carole King
I'll never let you see
The way my broken heart is hurting me
I've got my pride and I know how to hide
All my sorrow and pain
I'll do my crying in the rain
If I wait for stormy skies
You won't know the rain from the tears in my eyes
You'll never know that I still love you so
Though the heartaches remain
I'll do my crying in the rain
Raindrops falling from heaven
Could never take away my misery
But since we're not together
I'll wait for stormy weather
To hide these tears I hope you'll never see
Someday when my crying's done
I'm gonna wear a smile and walk in the sun
I may be a fool
But till then, darling you'll
Never see me complain
I'll do my crying in the rain
Raindrops falling from heaven
Could never take away my misery
But since we're not together
I'll wait for stormy weather to hide these tears
I hope you'll never see
Someday when my crying's done
I'm gonna wear a smile and walk in the sun
I may be a fool
But till then, darling you'll
Never see me complain
I'll do my crying in the rain
