闲聊
昨天,妹妹提醒,该给爸妈缴纳合作医疗保险,以及其他辅助健康保险了。
今年不敢懈怠,我赶紧第一时间就缴上了我负责的那部分。去年被妹妹数落了一通,开始承诺好好的,后来因事一耽搁,缴纳保险的事被忘到九霄云外,最后好在妹妹想起,不然差点误了事!唉,怪就怪自己的拖延症(procrastination)和记忆力不给力(a poor memory)惹的祸。
老家的水稻收割脱粒上场后,台风“康妮”不期而至,从中作梗,肆意破坏农民伯伯们辛劳大半年的即将到手的劳动成果。前段时间心一直提着,生怕雨水倒灌,促使稻粒发霉出芽,卖不出价钱不说,口感会大打折扣。庆幸,“康妮”的坏心思没有得逞,这些天云高气爽,阳光明媚。在姐姐的帮忙下,今天老家水稻谷粒终于可以全部进仓了。
听说今年新鲜稻谷只有一块2毛一斤,除去农药化肥水费,和收割脱粒费,净利润所剩无几吧!农民真不容易啊!
学校里期中考试快到了,也是师生收获的季节。由于今年放假趋于合理化,加之学校活动繁多,课程安排越来越紧。眼见着不到一个星期就考试,到现在新课还未结束,能咋样,焦虑担心没有意义,改变不了现状,只好听天由命!
今日积累

2. There is no point in mentioning dull events in the past. Let's let it go and move on.

4.There is no point in applying for that job as you are not properly qualified.
申请那份工作没有意义,因为你不能胜任它。
5. There is no sense in beating around the bush. You can talk frankly to me.

6. There is no point in hiding the truth for the sake of friendship. The truth will come out sooner or later.

7. There is no point in taking unnecessary risks. Remember safety always comes first whatever you do.

8. Whatever the results may be, there is no point comparing you with others all the time. Everyone is unique.
无论结果如何,没有必要一直和他人比较。每个人都是独一无二的!
谨以最后一句送给面临考试压力的你我他!
