A life of ease has made us soft

It has been a long time for me to not write in English since I finished my course assignments and all kinds of papers before I went home. I can feel the unfamiliarity of my language sense that I can't even find the accurate expressions of my intended meaning. These days I have been addicting in the various TV dramas Aand often got surprised by the amazing screenwriters. Last night I finished the most astonishing one My Dangerous Wife, which was similar to Gone Girl at the first sight but later much more fabulous than that. I didn't go to bed before I finished watching. So the result was that I eventually sleep at 2 today and got up at  nearly 12, which was totally bad for my health and I know it better than anyone else but I just can't stop my desire of watching.

I really think that more spare time should be used for learning my major and new-started language Korean. So after eating lunch I choose to learn New Concept English 4 for two hours and write down this English dairy. Many new phrases like "put sand in the wheels of" , many other war related vocabulary like "harry", "assail", "commissariat" made me feel like I was in the high school classroom again and I was still so young to learn so many interesting things without worrying about daily trifles and financial problem. In the process of English learning, I also watched many videos about various fish, herring, cod, carp, grass carp, koi, butterfish, salmon, tuna, etc. Even daily phenomenon has rich knowledge behind and I should pay more attention to these hidden knowledge.

I read the title sentence in the passage of Royal Espionage. Alfred the Great acted as his own spy, disguising as a harpist or a minstrel and observed enemy for a long time before he returned to his army and began his attack. A life of ease had made Danes soft. Same as us, modern people become vulnerable and weak in will and can barely last for a few days after they make their decisions to do something.  I hate being weak and slack in my daily life, as if I can't contorl my own life and just follow my lazy instincts. Life is a great battle but we can divide it into countless skirmishes. As long as I win these every skirmish, I will eventually win the whole battle.
