This is a drunken housefly which stopped on a single-lined exercise book. It was not afraid of my hand coming into its direction. Instead, it moved left, right and a step backward to response on my action towards it. No matter how I waved my hand, it just move its body a bit to show that it was scared but did not fly away.
This is unusual compared to normal housefly. It may have thousands of individual photo reception units on his head that make up its compound eyes and allow it to view all the directions. But it chose not to move away. May be it knew that I won’t hit it, or the chemical smell of the exercise book made it drunk.

Drunk can bring anything to death, the housefly might have been smashed into terrible shape but luckily I did not. A drunken person driving a vehicle on the road not only endanger his/her own life but also the other road users.
From quite a few of Chinese movies, there is a type of Kungfu (martial art) called ZuiQuan or Drunken Master. I like a sentence which I learned from the movie,”Xing2Zui4Yi4Bu2Zui4″ which means “the shape of the kungfu is drunken, but not the mind.” That’s true, if the mind is drunken, how to fight with the opponents using the kungfu?
Therefore, keep our mind away from drunk and make it sharp and clear all the time is important to make sure that everything is in the right order.
