The Colosseum

Considered to be the most famous building Roman architecture, the Colosseum was initially built by the Emperor Vespasian in AD72 and took only 8 years to finish the construction in AD80 in the time of his son, Emperor Titus. Building this gigantic construction within a few years shows the great power that Roman Empire had in that time. Imagine that two thousand years ago, there was no specialist in engineering and no technology of construction such as machinery, still they could build this unbelievable amphitheater which could seat more than 50,000 spectators. It was such a greatest feat in that time.
Besides, the Colosseum was decorated from the lowest floor to the highest one which all of them were decorated in Doric, Ionic, and Corinthian style at the first floor to the third floor respectively and the forth floor have a huge awning which shades spectators from the sun. There are about 80 gates for entry and exit that all of spectators could go out in less than 15 minutes. Interior of the Colosseum was built in the form of an ellipse that made a vast central arena. The floor was made of wood covered with sand. There were many underground chambers below that floor which can be easily seen with the naked eyes nowadays. All of these things indicate the wealthiness of the Roman Empire.
But in behind-the-scene facts, there was a purposeful reason of building this magnificent theater. It was for watching people killing each other as an entertainment for the spectators. That was the cruelest sports ever existed in this world watching, cheering the gladiators – slaves that were forced and trained to fight to their death for entertaining upper class people. For the first 100 days after finishing building the Colosseum, there was a bloody ceremony letting those slave gladiators fighting to their deaths all day all night long. Moreover, there was a fight between a gladiator and wild African beasts such as lions, tigers, giraffes, hippopotamus, and others. A slave fighter was given only a dagger or a small sword to fight and survive, of course there were many of them got killed by those beasts. Some times the Emperor wanted to see the Sea Battle in the arena so the Colosseum were flood with tons of water inside and the gladiators had to fight each other by using small ships. That was not only a play but a real battle. A large number of slave gladiators were killed in that arena. The Romans seemed to love what they were participated with.
All of these bloody sports showed the negative side of the people who called themselves civilized. Although the Colosseum was built to be a glorious architecture of the Roman Empire, its purpose showed the low level of moral standard of the Roman people who watched other human being died as an entertainment. However, this is the view looking from a modern. If it was seen from the ancient Romans view, it would absolutely be in the different way as they could do everything with slaves. At that time, one might have not much choice but to participate with the crowds to the games as not knowing any better.

Crazy ‘bout the bun Coffee-flavoured treats set a tasty trend
Three years ago, the green tea fad began sweeping the nation. You could find the ubiquitous beverage in everything from milk to chewing gum to toothpaste to cosmetics.
Nothing, however, lasts forever. At the moment, as the green tea fad gradually fades away, the craze for coffee-flavoured buns is taking Bangkok by storm.
Rotiboy, a Malaysia-based bakery chain, is arguably the most successful brand serving the seemingly simple but very scrumptious buns to Bangkok’s die-hard bread fans and trend followers.
With around 70 people constantly waiting in a long queue at Siam Square, all during their first month open, Rotiboy became the talk of the town. The phenomenon isn’t limited to just Rotiboy’s Siam Square branch, either. The Silom Road location is drawing crowds as well.
Believe it or not, some people don’t even know what the buns look like when they get in line. It’s the tempting aroma and the long queue that piques their curiosity and keeps them waiting for up to half an hour to make a purchase.
Also jumping on the bandwagon is another Malaysian chain: Baker’s Boy. The four Baker’s Boy branches at local malls, look a lot like Rotiboy’s from the outside: a long queue that obscures the display windows of nearby shops.
Because bun fever seems to be highly contagious and is not easy cured, brands like Mr. Bun, Papa Roti, and Thai-owned offerings Mr. Rotti and Coffee Dome, have popped up to offer city people more of the aromatic coffee-cream coated butter-filled buns that they demand.
Breaking some new ground, Coffee Dome has come up with a novel, more convenient service. Customers can order and pay in advance and come back 10 minutes later to pick up their treats.

Healthy Clothes
The essential component of healthy clothes is shirt. It protects human body from dangers in the environment: weather, insects, noxious chemicals, weapons, and contact with abrasive substances or other hazards. It also informs wearer’s position by its texture. For example, nobility wear suits which made from fur or silk, while poor only wear typical texture like grass cloth or flax. In healthy clothes, shirt will made from high-absorption fabric. This fabric is so special because it is divided into two parts for saving two chemicals in it.
Furthermore, sun block is integrated into healthy clothes. It decreases an exposure to ultraviolet radiation of human body which reduces sunburn and other skin damage, and also leading to a lower risk of skin cancer. Most sun block work by containing either an organic chemical compound that absorbs ultraviolet light or an opaque material that reflects light, or a combination of both. Sun block needs to be reapplied within two hours in order to remain effective. Not reapplying could even cause more cell damage than not using sun block at all. However, healthy clothes can solve this problem. Since it will reapply automatically when productive rate of melanin pigment is increase, owning to the exposure of ultraviolet radiation. Having sun block in healthy clothes will save people from skin cancer and have less dark complexion.
Finally, the feature of moisturizer is provided in healthy clothes. It is complex mixtures of chemical agents specially designed to make the external layers of the skin softer and more pliable, by increasing its hydration. Besides restoring normal levels of hydration to the skin, moisturizer can have several additional intended and unintended effects on their users, including building a barrier against the loss of water through the external layers, repairing scaly, damaged or dry skin resulting from external environmental aggressions or internal changes such as in acne or naturally dry skin, and repairing the aging effects on the skin. Moisturizer in healthy clothes will maintain the level of moisture of the skin which will protect dry skin in the long term.
In summary, it is obviously that the more technology steps forward, the more problems will be solved. Healthy clothes is a good material to prove it. If healthy clothes can be come true, human being will live longer and have more convenient life. Since they have not carried too many things like body lotions or sun block. Man will not die from skin cancer any more, and he will get healthy skin be the gift. All of these could be happen because shirt, sun block and moisturizer are all offer in one piece.

Love actually and Sad movie The same in the difference
Everywhere you look, love is causing chaos. From the bachelor Prime Minister of the United Kingdom who, on his first day at 10 Downing Street, falls in love with the girl who brings him his tea, to a hopeless sandwich delivery guy who doesn't think he has a chance with the girls in the U.K., so he heads for Wisconsin. From aging rock stars, to a stony headmistress, to a monolingual Portuguese housemaid--love arrives in many forms, shapes and sizes. Here, ten separate--but intertwining--stories of love all lead up to a big climax on Christmas Eve, proving that love is the driving force in all of these people's lives.
The characters are falling in love, falling out of love, some are with right people, some are with the wrong people, some are looking to have an affair, some are in the period of mourning; a capsule summary of reality. Love begins and love ends. They flirt a lot. They are all flirting with love. At all ages and social levels, love is the theme. Most of the movie is filmed in London, during Christmas and the characters all ended up at Heathrow airport a very uplifting note.
“Love actually is All Around”
The summary of love has two ways that is disappointment or happy ending. Sometime love will still be with you although someone whom you love can’t live with you anymore.
Imagine a film in which likeable characters encounter life-altering problems, struggle to overcome them, and then seem to actually make some headway, only to have all their hopes eventually dashed in a swift and brutal fashion.
The lives of four very different couples as they deal with love, loss and lift in romantic, loosely interconnected stories. A man unwilling to give up his dangerous job, a mother afflicted with cancer, a girl too shy to show her face to the boy she has a crush on, and a guy trying to win back his girlfriend who dumped him all seem like recipes for disaster in varying degrees.
The majority of the film plays out as a cute, consistently funny romantic comedy, nonetheless in the end of the story it becomes melodrama. It makes many viewers cry or shock by story’s end.
“Separation is Another Face of Love"
Love actually & Sad movie
Love actually and Sad movie are romantic comedy. Both movies are very similar however; it has the main difference between movie’s emotions. Love actually is a fulfilled love movie and Sad movie is a disappointed movie. The similarity of two movies is there are many couples in both movies, that is eight couples in Love actually and four couples in Sad movie. They were in different age and social levels. For example is husband and wife, mother and son, father and son, the bride and groom, boy and girl etc.
The different details are the following. Love actually was produced in English but Sad movie was produced in Korean. Besides, the meanings of songs are opposite, Love actually has romantic love song “love is all around” but Sad movie has mournful song “Goodbye song”.
Love actually can make you cry with smile more and more, likewise Sad movie also make you cry but in sad emotion more and more.

Smile

The most people think we smile because we are happy. In fact, there are many causes of smile. For example, we smile for response to the speaker, polite smile when we receive s present, saying hello. Sometimes, we smile to police when you were arrested by reason of your embarrassment.
According to the studies of physiology, the smile can say where you are from. British smile by pulling our lips back and upwards and exposing our lower teeth, but Americans are more likely simply to part their lips and stretch the corners of their mouths. For Thais, I think we are smile like Americans, but more sincere than them.
However, Smiling not only changes a facial expression or says where you are from, but can also make the brain produce endorphins which reduce physical and emotional pain, and give a greater sense of well-being, so when we are tense, just smile, It will be better.

Comic books are they destroying our youth’s mind, you decide.

Firstly, the subject of over spending. Comic books can go on for about 50 issues and each issue cost about 40 baht, so to have a collection cost about 2000 baht, there are lots of new titles coming out everyday and all of them seems to go on forever. The people who has to pay for all of these comic books are the parents and they have to suffer for the price because the children who are hook spend about 5000 baht per month on comic books.
Furthermore, comic books can have huge effects on children’s behavior. Comic books have explicit sexual scenes and the story is always about destruction and death. The level of gore and violence in these comic books is very high and there are no controls or regulations for children, so a kid about 8 years old can freely pick up a completely sadistic comic book where people get their head chopped off and blood spills at the turn of every page. Comic books also have sex scenes that exposes breasts and vaginas. So these scenes have cause early sexual for young children.
Even though, with all of these violence and pornographic can wreak havoc, comic books does also have a good side to it too. It could help small children practice reading and it can increase reading speeds for slow readers. It can also be enjoyable too. Some story such as the one for children can have good morals.
Although comic books have good qualities they can present problems in our cultures such as early exposure to sex or the high level of violence seen in these comic books. Comic books can be good and bad depending how you use it. As a result parents should be with the children when they choose comics, so as to see which one is suitable for their child.

Is ambition really that great?
responsible or having an ambition. Ambition is one of many ways to succeed. Ambition in the dictionary is define as ‘A strong desire to do or achieve something’. Ambition could bring you wealth and social status, money and popularity. But, ambition isn’t always so good, if used the wrong way. It can also be good if you use just the right amount. Ambition has created a lot of successful people in the world.
Ambition is something that we all have. As I have said before it is a desire to achieve something. Having ambition is a great thing, but sometime we need to learn to control it. Having it can help us realize our future job or what line of study we are going to take. Ambition is great to have because it lets us know who we are and where we are in our life. It can prepare us for the future that is suitable for us. Some people have actually succeeded from having their ambition such as Paradorn who played tennis with his ambition to be one of the greatest players and made it or the young female tae-kwan-do who won the bronze medal at Athens 2004, she was very ambitious and trained everyday.
Another way that ambition can help you is giving you fame and fortune. When you have ambition you tend to have the drive to study hard and use every resource you could find to help you succeed. After you have succeeded in the field that you set your mind to money and popularity just flows in from everywhere. People will want to talk to you and you will feel like a million bucks. Bill Gates who set his mind to sell software and became one of the richest men in the world.
But, ambition can also bring you down to your knees. Ambition can result in both good and bad is up to the user. For example the southern part incident in Thailand was caused from the wrong type of ambition. The terrorist who caused terror in the south had a strong ambition to separate the south from Thailand thus effect the present.
We can not blame ambition for all the mistakes that we make, it is up to us to decide what is enough and when to stop. In the end ambition is just something that can only help you realize your goal, but it is not always a good thing. But, when it finally comes down to it, it is you who choose your own actions.
and how about you guys. You want to success or not?

What was behind the assassination of Julius Caesar?
Although Julius Caesar was a great leader but he was too ambitious. He wanted to have the power that made him to be an emperor. So there was a group of people who fear that Caesar would be a threat to Rome because at that time Rome was a republic state and represented democracy. The Liberator ( a group of people that assassinated Caesar ) fear that Caesar would end up republic of Rome so they had to kill him.
One day before the assassination, there were a lot of omen which told that something bad would happen to Caesar such as his wife had a bad dream, his molded figure had been destroy, even one man gave him an assassination plan paper but he didn’t read it. If he read it, would he survive?
On 15 March 44 BC. , while Caesar was given a speech at a meeting place, he was injured by more over 20 people. Then at last, Brutus (his adopted son) ended Caesar life by using a knife cut his throat. Caesar tried to defend himself but he couldn’t do it so he died at that day. There was an interesting point that was before he died he was surprised that his son Brutus also in a group that betrayed him. He said “you too? , my son.”.
There were a lot of explanations about Julius Caesar last word. They believe that not only Caesar surprised that his son betrayed him but also warned Brutus that he would become like himself. If he wanted to be the most powerful man in Rome , he had to have a fate like him. He might warn that Brutus would have been killed by someone who jealous of the leader and wanted to be leader and had power like he was at that time that he killed his father. Some said that Caesar knew that he would be killed in that day but he still decided to end his life by went on the same appointment.
At the time that Caesar had a power in Rome, it was a republic era in Rome. But Caesar claimed that he was a dictator it made a threat to the freedom and democracy in Rome. So surely Some groups of people would dislike him and afraid that it would be the end of the republic era of Rome. So they assassinated Julius Caesar for protecting the democracy in their state although Caesar had a lot of favor things that he had done for Rome.
If he had read the letter that was an assassination plan, he might have survived. if there was a law or something that prevented Caesar from the death and just stepped down from his throne. Roman civilization might still exist in almost over the world in the present because Rome might still have the power all over the continent.
Julius Caesar also has an influent in the modern world. You can see that some kings or leaders of some countries use the word “Caesar” as a root of their name such as leader of Russia and Germany.
Julius Caesar was considered one of the foremost military geniuses of his time. He was assassinated because the Jealous of his power and the fear that he would end the democracy era in Roman civilization. That’s the reason why he was assassinated. As he wanted to be a kind of emperor, the Liberator killed him for protecting Rome.

Christmas Day
The story happened around two thousand years ago. The angel came from the heaven to tell a man whose his job was to take care the sheep horde. The man was told about the birth of new king, Jesus Christ, who will be born from a virgin woman in Bethlehem and the man was also led to see the Jesus by the position of the star. Finally, he found a baby born from a virgin woman laying in the manger, everyone was felicitous of the birth of a new king and he was later called Jesus.
Assumption University has a celebration in the Christmas festival too. In the Christmas day at ABAC, it started at noon and in the area near the right fence there were a large amount of shops for the party in this day. There was one shop which dare the people to take a chance from their lucks. This game attracted me so I went in and played. The game was called “take a change”. I had to pick one of the five cards. I was very exciting when I opened the card and turned it, I felt shock. It said you won the prize. I got a “Big Brown Bear” and then I went to see a fantastic concert held by the university.
After that, about five o'clock in the evening, I went to the Christmas party at the church to worship the God with my youth group, in the church I had to sing a Christmas song to recall the meaning of Christmas. When I arrived the church which was at my old school, I also had a party like the one held in ABAC. Then I ate a lot of food, all of them were very delicious. There were the activity which was made to give gifts to each others and I got many gifts too. About 7 p.m. I sang a song in order to bless everybody who came to the church. I was very happy because I saw everyone enjoy with my melody. And what was special in that day was that I could sing a song with many cute girls in the church!
By the way, this morning at the church, I heard a song that I think it encouraged me and I just want to share with you. The song is “Jesus Lover of My Soul”
(it’s just the same name but different one).
“Jesus lover of my soul
Love that will not let me go
To your arms, I long to fall
To rest my weary soul …”
P.S Merry Christmas everybody Hope you good thing in your life and I wish you Happy in Christmas day..

My Dad
I believe that my father is my hero. He is a great man, not because he is always saying that he is great, but because he really is great. He works well, has new and groundbreaking perspectives that are up to date, and is always teaching me and my brother to do the right thing. When we ride back home in the car, he likes to talk about everything. Whether it would be about problems and solutions for work, politics, or even the drama shows and television shows on the air and the actors and actresses that are famous now. He is a person that encourages me when I do something wrong and forgives me every time, though he does get angry at me sometimes when I don’t listen to what he has to say.
Sometimes he is a chef, no matter how hard and demanding his job can be, and feeds me every time. My father is my father and best friend as well. HE likes to do all sorts of activities with me, watch over me, and gives me council when I really need his help. Above all else, he is a family man. He loves his children, his wife, and everyone in his family.
Even though my father is someone who doesn’t like to show compassion, he is still capable of making us feel that he loves us with his actions. Even if there are some times when there are problems at work, he will never let his family feel the pressure along with him. He has never been a family that leads into panic and disorder. Everything he does is for the happiness of the family.
I think that my father is the best father in the world. I am proud that my father is as he is. No one can replace my father. I believe and obey my father in every way and I know I will be a good son to him.
I love you Dad

work in cake shop
I'll tell you about my story that I used other methods to apply in real life. I used to work in the cake shop when I was 15 years old. I had many things to do compared to only studying in the classroom such as making cake from fruits, making a cup of cappuchino. Although there was a coffee machine, I had to practice many times and other assistances taught me until I could make it successfully. I broke many cups during that time too. At least, I feel happy that I succeed it. It was pity that I had to quit because I didn't have enough time. Even though I don't work at the cake shop anymore, I got many things that I can't find anywhere else for examples, the patience from washing dishes, delivering for a long long way.
[[[At least, I found a very cute girl at that cake shop,she is very cute ha ha.]]] Those are just one of my learning styles. Everyone can use their styles as I did, they just really intend to do it.
