• A reply on Conversation: what really do you want? can you ensure it right?

  Aug 19 2012: Thanks, Edwin. I really appreciate what you said, what I really wanted yesterday, is not what I wanted for today. What I really want today may not be what I really want for tomorrow. However, today we have to choose the best in our hearts, though it would be the worst tomorrow.
  You are very energetic and valiant, and I believed that you are a very good leading card to me and guys around.
  I like statistics, and I can learn more in the professional environment, maybe that is why I want to get a statistic's degree of the field in the future. I don’t know what will say to me, but I will never say sorry as long as I have tried. Additionally, what someone else say is not important; we cannot be liked by everyone. Just do it.
  Cheers

  Aug 19 2012: Thanks, Fritzie. Reading many of your suggestions I decided to take the exam no matter what happens.
  Honestly, PhD is just a label but not the real power. I really want to engage myself to the research of statistic, even though ecology has it interesting character. Everyone could choose only one main way to approach.

  Aug 18 2012: Thanks, Barry. I agree with what you said, knowledge is never useless. I learned agricultral resource and enviroment in my university and then I chose ecology as my master student's major. I am very satisfied that I have learnt so many. However, it is not about what I will learn but which I will choose. Nevertheless, I will persue my passion and I will not give the ecology up.

  Aug 18 2012: 张，不知道你来自哪里，看你名字应该是同胞啊。谢谢你的建议和提醒，生态学的领域需要很多统计学的知识，也正因如此我才对统计学感兴趣的，后来了解到统计学更多的相关知识才想专攻统计学。是的，考试和博士并不能说明什么，关键是看个人追求，我们都是将近30岁的人了，要对自己的未来做一个清晰的规划。当然除了统计和生态之外我还有许多事情可以做，我喜欢书法，尽管现在写的不好，但是我相信通过努力一定可以写出拿的出手的作品。我决定了考统计学的博士，再次谢谢你，希望以后多交流。

  A comment on Conversation: Should couples be banned from adopting children overseas?

  Aug 26 2011: A human is a human. If an orphan could not survival in his country, why not take him to a better enviroment?
  But if one can afford the kid, there is no reason to abandon him.
  So we need to analyze the problem in two eyes.
  All we are doing is to help the kids.
