The season of thesis, is the same season of graduation.
From some point, the end is the beginning. Life just likes a circle, iteratively and upward or backward.
Maybe during two years of postgraduation study, I haven't done my best. Though in the eyes of many of my friends, I am a utterly aesthete, trying to do everything as better as possible. However, the reality doesnot allow me to do so. Sometimes, compromise is another way of success. I don't quite agree so. But it seems I don't have much choices. Maybe next time, I will do better. will it have a second time? I hope so.

Despondency is another kind of happiness
Despondency is another kind of happiness. Do you believe it? I do so.
Despondency, depression of spirits from loss of hope, confidence, courage, to some extent, is a negative feeling. How can it be happiness. The reason lies in that when you feel dejection, the most possibility is that you have expected and hoped before. Only through such course, once something does not happen or someone does not do as you look forward to, such feeling will come. The stronger it is the more you expect. When someone still has such hope or has such faith, it is happiness.
Along with lots of depression, such faith might be decreased, even vaporized. Then there will be no despondency just the same as happiness. While listening to a song, the lyrics is so similar with the poem from Xi Murong, sensitivity, beauty, meanwhile with sadness. Maybe ........

artists and critics (1)
In the eyes of ordinary people, artists and art critics seem to be in the contradictive realm. However, these two have a extraordinary intimate relationship. The value of critic comes from the presenting of arts and artists are confined, located and written in art history through critcs. In another words, they are mutually supplement each other.
Later in 1980s, China began its modern liberation of thoughts, the same as the mordern art movement. The essential nature of such art movements resulted some artists created their works on the conforming purpose and shared the same perception of art, which led to the mutual style and inclination. In such movement, critics were also the participators. However their influence was not the organizers or propellers of such art movements, but more concerned with the recording history and setting up standards. Through such explanation, critics play a role as an bridge to guide the artists to cross a art trend to the other one and they are the most effective ones.
However, it does not mean that critcs can decide or change the art trends. Critics can not force the movement of arts as well as not create one. Art movements is more like an inclination in certain time, which is part of the trends of culture.
Some people might opponent that if they are so intimated, why critics is always making negative judgment to artists. Then in other side of such events, you may find that such criticism is just another form of support and conclusion. It also proclaims and prompts artist. In the beginning of 1990s, the "new generation" was just a small trend, through critics which fastly became popular. " female artists' s wold" is just another example. At the first level, those artists was not intent to start an art movement and not prone to constitute an organization or galleries, or even no claim . It is critics who noticed such new direction of movemen. Though such movement was just in the germinal status, having no basic theory or orientation, via the effort of critics, such name presenting such movement was settled down, which delegated a new style and view.
