#7 Steve Jobs’ Talk

dots will somehow connect in your future
你沒辦法預見這些點滴如何聯繫,唯有透過回顧,可以看出彼此關聯

believing that the dots will connect down the road will give you the confidence to follow your heart
必須相信,無論如何,這些點滴會在未來互相連結,有些東西你必須相信,像你的直覺

You've got to find what you love
你必須找到你所愛的東西。
 If you live each day as if it was your last, someday you'll most certainly be right.把每天都當成人生中最後一天來過,你就會很自在。 

Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish.

常保飢渴求知,常存虛懷若愚。

It is a very great speech ,not only the speaker Steve Job  Three story are very courage to me , and especially the second story , he fail many times and never give up . I am many things not smoothly recently , liten to his speech , I feel the thing isn’t serious to Steve Job , so I must be keep going and believe myself. And this talk inspire me what I do now , not only study in school subject and must be learn about other knowledge .

Lyrics:

Do you ever feel like a plastic bag
Drifting thought the wind
Wanting to start again
Do you ever feel, feel so paper thin
Like a house of cards
One blow from caving in
Do you ever feel already buried deep
Six feet under scream
But no one seems to hear a thing
Do you know that there's still a chance for you
'Cause there's a spark in you
You just gotta ignite the light
And let it shine
Just own the night
Like the Fourth of July
'Cause baby you're a firework
Come on show 'em what your worth
Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!"
As you shoot across the sky-y-y
Baby you're a firework
Come on let your colors burst
Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!"
You're gonna leave 'em fallin' down down down
You don't have to feel like a waste of space
You're original, cannot be replaced
If you…

#4 BBC Learning English

It's attractive from the title  "What your lunch says about you "  and I think the lunch in nutrition at first .but actually in the 6 minute English is talk about lunch break in the UK .  A survey from 2012 showed a third of Britions eat exactly the same thing for lunch every day , and almost sandwiches ! Part of the reason only 25 minutes the average lunch break in the UK.   It's shock me that Britions eating habit in sandwich  and too short lunch break .
