Sexually Transmitted Diseases

This afternoon, I still attended the elective course (Introduction to Sexuality). Today’s topic was about “Sexual Desire” and “Sexually Transmitted Diseases.”

Regarding sexual desire, there wasn’t much new information, and topics like “sexual harassment” didn’t pique my interest either;

After all, these are also subjects of legal studies.

The focus was on “Sexually Transmitted Diseases.”

Listening to the teacher’s explanation during class, I didn’t think STDs were a big deal, except for AIDS,

The Story of the Spear and the Shield

There is a story in “Han Feizi” that is widely known:

A man from Chu was selling shields and spears. He boasted about his shield, saying, “My shield is so strong that nothing can pierce it.” Then he praised his spear, saying, “My spear is so sharp that it can pierce anything.” Someone then asked, “What if you use your spear to pierce your shield?” The man was left speechless.

Life Cannot Be Without a Fulcrum

The first year of university was a bleak and pale period of my life, leaving behind nothing of value or significance.

Angry thoughts often lead to radical actions, and a frivolous attitude gradually eroded my past strengths. In the days of vulgarity and desire, in a world of passion and illusion, I completely lost the faint traces of ideals and ambitions that remained in my heart. A life without a fulcrum is pitiful. Where is the fulcrum?

My Six Mid-Autumn Festivals

In the blink of an eye, this is already the sixth time I’m spending the Mid-Autumn Festival alone away from home.

Since my first year of high school, all my Mid-Autumn Festivals have been spent at school.

If I were to try to recall how these Mid-Autumn Festivals passed, I really don’t have much of a concept anymore.

In my first year of high school, the Mid-Autumn Festival in 2003 fell on September 11th, which I remember quite clearly.

Reflections and Final Summary of the Basketball Course

This semester, I chose basketball as my physical education course. After a semester of learning, I have gained a deeper understanding of this sport.

First, the objectives of our course can be summarized into the following four points.

  1. Shifting from a purely competitive sports focus to a comprehensive educational direction that includes fitness, rehabilitation, entertainment, competition, and life. The evaluation of physical education is also transitioning from a purely biological perspective to one that includes biological, psychological, and social aspects. The teacher-student relationship is evolving from a submissive type to a cooperative one.

Astonishing the Autumn Rain

A couple of days ago, during a mock trial session on “Debate and Eloquence,” I caught sight of Yu Qiuyu again.

Back in high school, I forced myself to read “Mountain Dwelling Notes,” “Bitter Journey Through Culture,” and “Boundless Traveler”…

Why did I force myself?

Mainly because my essay writing skills were so poor back then (and honestly, they still are). I had to memorize sentences from these essays to piece together my own writings.

Reflections on Running for Class Cadre in University

Tonight, I walked into the classroom as usual, feeling quite relaxed, but by the time I left, it was hard to maintain that initial calm.

Recalling My First Class Cadre Election
I can’t remember any class cadre positions I held in elementary school. My first time as class monitor was in middle school, at the age of 12, in the second year. On the first day of school, I found out I was still in Class 100. Back then, our school had five classes for the second year: 99, 100, 101, 102, and 103. Due to the high school entrance exam, the top-performing students from each class were reassigned to Class 101 (while the lower-performing students from Class 101 were moved to other classes). The main criterion for this reassignment was the final exam results from the second semester of the first year. I had ranked fifth in my class that semester, but I wasn’t selected for Class 101, which left me puzzled. However, being too young to fully understand, I didn’t dwell on it and simply went to register for Class 100. After registration, the teacher immediately appointed me as class monitor without any discussion. To this day, I still find that decision abrupt! As it turned out, my tenure as monitor lasted only one day… The next morning, a relative who knew about my situation took me to see the school’s disciplinary officer. After clarifying the situation, I was finally transferred to Class 101. Once there, I realized that academic performance wasn’t the main criterion for being placed in the “key class.” Some classmates who had ranked 20th or even 30th in their previous class had made it into the key class due to their parents’ influence… This left me with the first deep shadow of my academic life. Of course, this brief stint as class monitor also came to an early end…

The reason why China lags behind the West

Dizzy in the afternoon, I stood in front of the bookshelf and spent more than half an hour flipping through Russell’s “China Question”, excerpted two pages,

I have to be convinced by Russell’s vision in 1922. Most of the Chinese problems he predicted happened later.

The spirit of the Dharma

After roughly reading “The Spirit of Laws”, it is of course impossible to read the original work. This is a “miniature color print”, which is actually a “obscene color print”. (not with pictures)

Questioning 'Survival of the Fittest'

Since Darwin’s theory of evolution dominated the field of biology 150 years ago, almost the entire world has embraced the concept of “natural selection, survival of the fittest.”

All theories are meant to be questioned, without a doubt. To accept a theory as truth without critical thought is a desecration of truth itself.

Most truths, even when questioned, remain unchallenged because they are sufficiently rigorous and scientific, allowing future generations to repeatedly question and still acknowledge their validity.
