[Warm Heart Initiative] Bring Warmth to the Snowstorm Victims in China
[Warm Heart Initiative]
Bring Warmth to the Snowstorm Victims in China
[暖心贴] 为中国雪灾捐款倡议书
中文内容在下面
Dear fellow Chinese,
This is a letter from several Chinese students studying in the U.S.
As you have already heard, East and South China have been suffering from severe weather conditions since mid January. 80 million people are affected, about 150,000 houses collapsed, power lines are damaged, and many provinces and cities do not have electricity supply… As overseas Chinese, we might not be able to offer direct aids, but there are many alternative things we can do, as long as we care for our home country and her people.
We have started an initiative called “Warm Heart” and have built a group called "Snow Storm in China" on Facebook as a preliminary site to update news and information about the snowstorms and seek ways of donations. Now, you are invited to join us and do the following things:
1. Let the world know about this!
Please forward the message to your friends, your community or group email lists, post this message on your own blog, post it on the BBS forums you go to. Try to let everybody around you know, no matter they are Chinese or not.
2. Join the "Snow Storm in China" group on Facebook

3. Donate
Yes, this is the most effective way to offer our help, given that we are living overseas. Unfortunately, we have not found any trustworthy charities in the States which receive donation for the Snowstorm victims in China. However, we do think the World Vision (Hong Kong) is a trustworthy and efficient NGO that we can count on so far. As one of the most influential charities in the world, World Vision has already made a quick response to this disaster by committing HK$400,000, and plans to carry out rehabilitation works in the worst-hit provinces such as Guizhou, Hubei, Shaanxi and Jiangxi.
For details, you can consult their webpage at http://www.worldvision.org
Donate to World Vision in Hong Kong online - go to this page (https://www.worldvision.or
To make it clear, we don’t have any personal connections with the World Vision Hong Kong. We will keep searching for other charities and keep you posted on this.
Again, as students living far far away from home, our input might not be substantial enough, but there are no excuses for us to stay out of troubles on our homeland. We shall never give up in front of any difficulties, because love is what makes us strong.
May you have any inquiries, please email us at snowstormchina@gmail.com or leave your message on the Facebook group.

这也算精神生活?
Blogbus总有新模板,我又想搬过去。
想写一下最近的精神生活,看了些什么书和电影的,竟然无甚可说。学业上的正经功课越来越陷入细节,文学、电影批评有太多技术性的东西,看的时候有趣,但是像做菜或织毛衣的那种趣味,投入却心不在焉,事后也不觉有什么要紧。比不上想国情民生,自己会越想越重大,于是连人生都有意义了。可这些天对受苦受难受歧视受迫害受污染的种种都提不起精神义愤填膺,唯独只恨世人注意力转移太快。今天死了的人,明天连血痕便都不见了。
这两周在看《红楼梦》,不过是摘些章节,蜻蜓点水。我在文学方面近几年是差的远了,需要恶补的太多。尤是英语文学,叫的出名的几乎全没看过,碍于比较文学的面子也不好不看。我觉得自己在虚构世界与现实世界之间一直有个挣扎,只取前者似太无足轻重,只取后者又觉少见识了人性的种种可能对现实也未必有利。到底如何杀出一条血路,大概要过几年才见分晓。
一门课专读本雅明阿多诺。西方马克思主义引引还能勾起我的激情,念念名字就很开心。那课老师退休了,说不用看journal了,自己想读什么才读什么。很羡慕。兼给Food in Film做TA。每周看一部与食物有关的片子,和小本科生们一起慢慢的细细分析电影的时候,无忧无虑。
终于去了好莱坞,小失望,小激动。街上蜘蛛侠黑武士横行,回头看到尤达大师遥遥摆摆地走来,像是提醒我们终究也曾做了大梦一场。几天以后Heath死了,伤心难过自不必说。然而哭过也就过了,再不是当年为张国荣一连忧伤几日的年纪。
此外耳边没有好音乐,嘴边没有好句子,没有痴迷没有什么萦绕心头,终究还是没劲儿。再者我不文艺好久了,有点身份危机。
