Robert Frost - The Road Not Taken

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I-
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

I've read this poem in literature class and I love it still. This poem is talking about choice. In the begining, "Two roads" means there are a lot of choices in our life but we only can choose one which we really want. The second paragraph means after you choose a goal and you look back to other choices, you find actually there are no difference at all. The third paragraph means we don't know the outcome before we make the decision, also after we choice one goal, we cannot sure whether we will feel regret or not and doubted if we should come back to the begining. The final paragraph says we will look back from the start and realize that if we choice another road at first time, the consequence will be totally different. I think the summary of this poem means there are many choices in our whole life, but after you make the decision there is no way to start over again.

Come on!!

This semester will come to the end in three weeks, I can't believe how come time can pass so fast. It's no doubt that we have to finish a lot of things and become busy in these three weeks, also we have to prepare for finial exam. I think this time I have to plan well about finial exam because last time I didn't prepare well. I can't wait for the winter vacation, so I wish I can pass all the exams and finish everything perfectly. So, I think now I have to study and finish some reports!! Come on!!

Lose Weight

About these two words I don't ever think it will happen in my life. Actually before I went to junior high school I was normal height with other girls. But when I went to junior high school I grow tall quickly because after school I played basketball with my friends everyday. So I think that's why I'm such tall now and no matter how much I eat, it is still hard to get fat. My sister also has same situation as me. She is also tall and doesn't get fat easily. I think we are lucky sisters, we don't have to care about "weight" and we can eat everything we want. Haha! By the way, Candance always says that she wants to lose weight and become thinner, but actually I don't think she is fat. I think everyone isn't perfect, but I think natural beauty is more important!

Again

The cold I've got three weeks ago is not recovered to health yet. This month I have been to clinic for three times, it is so painful to got a cold for such a long time. I still remembered that when I study in senior school, I have been cough for three months and the doctor said that might be an indication to asthma. I was so scared and I can't believed how come the condition was turn to so serious. Tow weeks later, I went to another clinic. Amazingly, I was recovered to health in a short time. I think every clinics has different ways to diagnose a patient's condition, so I think maybe this time I still have to went to another clinic........

Issue - Disney Channel

Haha! I'm a big fan of Disney Channel, I'm so fascinated in their short plays such as "Lizzie McGuire", "The Suite Life of Zack and Cody" and "Hannah Montana". These short plays are all funny and make me laugh!

"Lizzie McGuire" is really funny because sometimes it will use cartoons character to show the funny side so that it will be easy to unsterstand. Also I love the heroine, she is so pretty and she act well, too.





"The Suite Life of Zack and Cody" is my favorite short play. Zack and Cody are twin, they always do some stupid things and really funny. Every characters in this plays are also funny, sometimes I just can't stop laughing. I love them so much!




"Hannah Montana" is really famous in America, teenagers and children are all know about her. The heroine is Miley Cyrus, she also publish her album by acting this short plays. She really sings well and the play is really funny,too.

Wonder

This semester will come to the end in four or five weeks. Time is going so fast, everything just rapid happened. As for me, I think it is a good thing because I also want to graduate as soon as possible, actually I still thinking weather I have to transfer to another school or not. I know it is a big decision and also hard to do but I still want to try. I wish I can find somewhere I can dependent on and gain more happiness. It is painful to stay in a place which you really don't like, many things only yourself know about the feelings and only yourself can solve the problems. So I wish I can live more happier and gain more smile.

Gay rights

I think parents in Taiwan really cannot accept if their children are gays or lesbians. Taiwan is a conservative country, so it is hard for people to accept such things. But I think recent years, this problem is become more smoothly, many organization are willing to speak out their opinions and people also willing to listen. I think it is a good begining because hunan's thoughs is more open than before, so I think we have to learn to accept new thoughts. Gays and lesbians are also human, so I think we have to treat them equitable and accept them.

Bad Mood

These days I've been psychology tired, I don't know how to say and I don't want to explain again. Too many things I have to do, I hope I can finish it as soon as possible. I don't want someone bother me. So I hope "you" can have some self-knowledge and I don't want to talk about your things again, and stop asking me reasons about the thing which happened recently. You always regard things are not your bussiness, but actually it's all about your bussiness and you never did it by yourself. It was me always devote and you totally know nothing. I am fed up of your attitude, so please just get out off my sight!

My thoughts on 'The Times of Harvey Milk'.

user comments

Harvey Milk

After watching this film, I think he is a remarkable man in that time because he was the first gay man to be elected in California, and is one of the earliest gay rights activists. I think no one can do as same as he did. He is not to care what other people think about or what they criticize him, he just do the things which can help citizen and bring them advantages. I think he help a lot of people who are afraid of to speak out about their opinions and beliefs. In this film, I think citizen also give Milk a lot of courage and supportability. A successful supervisor must have to catch people's mind and gain their trust. I very admire Milk's enthusiasm, he fight for rights and does not care he is a homosexual, although he had murdered finally, it's no doubt that he is ever a remarkable man.

Family Reunion

Yesterday we had a family reunion because my grandfather's birthday is coming. We had a happy dinner party, I talked a lot with my cousins and shared many things which happened recently. After dinner we had a really big cake to celebrate, everyone sang the birthday song to grandfather. It was a happy night, I also went to KTV with my sister and cousins. We had a good time there, too! I can wait for New Year coming so that we all can have a reunion again!

I got a cold!

It's so painful! The weather is always change recently. Sometimes very hot, sometimes very cold. So that I have got a cold. Now I have very serious running nose, when I sleeping, I feel I can't breathe easily and I also can't sleep well. Oh! Now I wish I can feel better as soon as possible because got a cold is so painful and I can't focus on everything!

I want to buy a car !!!

I really want to buy a car now because I have been didn't drived cars since I got the license this summer vacation. It has been a long time, I afraid that I already forgot any skills, so I very want to buy a car to practice. Driving cars is really insteresting, after I learn it, I notice that actually driving cars is not difficult as I think, it is very easy to learn and the test is also very easy, too. If I have a car, I can drive it from my home to school. Ha ha! It will be very interesting and I think I will be excited on the way. So I wish I can get a car as soon as possible!

Still Busy

Recently I also have been really busy. Last weekend I had to prepared for phonetics because we delate the midterm exam for two weeks. And other subjects also have many reports and assignments. I always get busy this semester, I wish the winter vacation can come soon so that I can relax, otherwise, I think I will get tired of school life and maybe I will give up the final exams. Oh on! It is so terrible. I don't want it really happen! So give me holidays right now!!

Issue - promise

Promise is very important between ourselves and others. If you promise someone to do something, then you have to finish it. In my opinion, I think promise is related with trust. If you don't bring about what you have promised, than no one will trust you anymore. So it is a important thing we have to realize. I think most teenagers will not attach importance to promise, sometimes they just be perfunctory. They don't look ahead and back of the situation before promise something, so that they always cannot get trust. So I think we have to think carefully before we promise others, if the thing is over your ability to do, you can refuse it instead of lose your faith.

Response Question

In my opinion, I don't think medical testing is a good thing, not only for humans but also animals. Nowadays more and more testing for medical research, although it is a new way to find solutions about medical problems, we have to notice that animals always be victims in every research. I think animals also have their rights, so I don't think the research is justified and necessary.

I think animal testing on cosmetics is also unfair to animals. I still don't agree to do research using animals. But in fact, it is really have greater risk to humans if we don't use animals. I think if we want to solve this problem, we can find some substiude to do the research or something inanimate object instead of using animals.

Memory

Memory is the most beautiful thing in life no matter it is good or bad. I think memory is the journey about what you have meet before. Sometimes I can spent the afternoon lost in memory because it is really interesting and only you know about the feelings which couldn't be expressed by any words. When I look at photographs, it always brings back many pleasant memories for me, I love the feelings and enjoying in it. Some memories you can choose to keep in your mind, but there must have some bad memories you want to forget. There is no doubt that the memories you have are part of your life, so I think I will keep my all memories in mind no matter it is good or bad.

Friendship

The relationship between friends is very important. There is a proverb in Taiwan says " When you at home, you depend on your family; when you go outside, you have to depend on your friends." I think it is truth because friends is very improtant to most people, including me. I think I cannot live without friends, and sometimes I feel that friends is more important than family. Some of them can accompany you for a long time ever forever, but some of them are not. To have some friends indeed is a wonderful thing in life, you can know what they think about in some things which you can't make decisions. So on matter how life goes on, I wish the friendship between me and my friends can last forever.

Whale Wars

After watching the vedio, I think I agree with Paul Watson and his group. Hunting whales is too cruel and Japanese just hunting it for food, every years they doing this illegal thing and never stop, and the most controversial thing is they claim that they killed whales for research. I don't agree that, I think Japanese should be honest about what they really doing, even it's illegal. They can't cheat people all over the world saying they have reasons to killed whales for science, but the truth is not. I don't think the low should be published about hunting animals because animals have their freedom to live, humans just let them alone to live out their nature lives.

In this vedio, we watched on Paul Watson' side, I have a little argue about their actions. I think they don't have to give offence to Japanese, it is not the best way to solve the problems. Conversation is very important, I think they have reach an agreement peacefully instead of use weapons to attack each other. Violence cannot solve any problems, I think Japan's government should do some self-criticism about their policy, on the other hand, Paul Watson and his group also have to negotiate with Japanese rationality, so that the peoblem will be solve as soon as possible.

Issue - Weather

Winter weather hard to predict this year

In recent years, the weather has become much warmer than before include winter. Global warming problem is getting worse, it effect most creatures and brings a lot of problems such as iceberg disappear and extinction of polar bears, hole in the ozone layer, changing weather, etc....

I think the most problems are cause by human's behavior because people are not always pay attition to earth problems before they do something bad to nature environment, so the damge is become worse. Environment protection is a very important issue now, so I think we should do something to rcover the damges. We can recycle all the renewable recources, use less air conditioner...... such like these. I wish everyone can love our earth because earth is unique.

Animal Cruelty Law

After reading this article, I think the law about animal may enforced part of people. Government enabling some laws to protect animals, I think although some strict policy that government had published, the effect is still relate to human's own behavior. I think if the problems about animals wants to be solve, the most important thing is not how strict of punishments, is about how poeple think about the problems and care about aimals from heart. So I think we should solve the problems step by step, maybe strict laws is a good policy because fine for money is the most easy way to punish people. My suggestions is that government must have to enforce the policy, don't just for show, I wish the problems about animals can be solve as soon as possible!

Animals Taiwan

This group which is wants to improve the environment of animals and try to protect them. They try to effect people by some charity activities. This group also help some stray and abandon animals, especially dogs. I think this group is very great, they care about animals and try to help them. I wish more and more organization like this will exist in Taiwan because so many animals wait for our help and looking for a warm place to live. So I'm admire this group and I wish I can give some help to help animals, too.

Animal police

After watching these videos, I feel sorry for animals which is wounded with chains and curcify by human. It is very cruel and I don't know why people want to do this. I think animal police is a great organization that help animals from danger, I think Taiwan should have some organization like animal police, too. Animal rights is a very important problem now, I think people should protect animal instead of curcify them. In videos, the animal police help cat from trapped under car, I think it is very cool because you can save a living being by your own hands. I wish everyone can had a benevolent feeling towards all animals. After all, animals also have their rights to live.

A Nice Day

Yesterday I had a dinner party with my high school friends. We went to a famous cake buffet restaurant. In there you can eat everything you want when in tea time, so it is very super value. We all had a time there. We talked about school things and shared some experience about part-time jobs. One of my friend told us that she is going to study abroad, we all felt exciting about that. She is a very cool girl because she has a lip-ring. Wow! I feel hurt about that. But it's really cool! To sum up, we all had a good day!!

Midterm Exam

This midterm week was the tired week ever! We have a small study group and everytime when midterm or final exam, we study together and stay up all night. Last sunday we studay all day long for literture. It was very very tired but we couldn't stop because we have too many not finished yet. So we studay more than 24 hours but we sleep just 1, 2 hours. I hope we can get high grades and pass every exams!

Unit 2 - Questions

1. In my opinion, students chose to cheat because they didm't prepare for tests and they afraid they will fail in the end of semester. Most students chose to cheat always say they afraid to get low grades, so they have to do that. I think it is not a correct way to grt high grades. I remember when I was senior high, once we took the exam and a student took a note under his examination papers, he copy the answers and passed the note to another student. But finally they still get zero grades because teacher found their answers is same even the mistakes, too!

2. In Taiwan, if you cheating on exam you will get low grades on the subject or be fail. Some tough punishments such as get warning or school will send letters to your parents to let them know you cheat on the tests. I think most of these punishments can not deter to cheating, some students don't care about the punishments, they just want to pass the exam. So I think there is no way to deter students to cheat unless they can be honesty for their onw mind.

Assignment

In my opinion, I think copying someone else's idea and taking notes for test is cheating. People cheating in test may because they didn't prepare for it or they affraid they can't pass the exam, so that they cheating for high grades. Actually it is very unfair to other students, I think the punishment should be powerful, such as get zero grades for the class or having more homework and reports instead of. I think if you cheat, you can't have any reasons. So just think more about the punishment befor you cheating.

Issue

Wanna Go to College for Free?
I think school tuition is a problem for many family now. In Taiwan, college's tuition is more expensive than high school, so even though some students apply for a good college but they can't afford to pay the expenses. Nowaday most students grant a loan to go to college, but after gratuate they still have to pay the money back. I think students in Taiwan have to bear a lot of pressures, and parents also have to worry about the expenses. I think it is impossible for go to college for free in Taiwan, but I still hope the tuition can be decrease a little so that the pressure of money where be solve a lot.

Yesterday I saw a movie named Matilda which we learn about it in English children's literature class. This movie is very interesting and all students enjoy in the story. We talk about character's personality, plot and make summary for some chapters. It let us learn more about this story step by step. I think it is interesting to learn the book story first and then watch the movie, we can clearly know the movie's plot. So I can't wait to learn another novel next week!

The Weather

Today is so hot! Recently the weather is still like summer time. Actually I really don't like doing exercise in hot weather like today because I'm easy to perspire and it is uncomfortable when your body is sticky and soaking after doing exercise. So I wish the weather can be cool soon because it is unreasonable have such hot weather in November!

A Columbia University professor was fired for violating academic integrity policies. She was relieved from her tenured position after plagiarizing the work of two former students and a former colleague. She accused the findings against her of being"biased and flawed." She also claimed that her skin color made her a target in this case.

Question 4
After read the following examples of plagiarism, I think I agree with the punishment because they all dishonesty with they exam. As a student, all we have to do is study hard and show what we learn, we should prepare for exam instead cheat on exam. In these cases it's common to happen in our daily life, I think we should be honesty with every exam even if you can't sure whether your answer is right or not. I think honesty is more worth than cheating for high grades.

Issue - War and Military

US military deaths in Iraq war at 4,189
Recent years the war is become less than before. Everyone want a peace world forever, but there is some problems between some countries. The war between US and Iraq began in March 2003, no one want this war began, but it still happened. I think the war is the problem between two countries, but the cost is human's life in these two countries. Military should fight for their own country, they have to leave their family, their home and all their friends, they even don't know whether they can alive or not after war. In this report it says there already dead 4,189 people in the war. this is such a sad news. I think if the war didn't happened, 4,189people even more can alive and continue their lifes. No body want a war began in their country, so I hope there can be a peace world in the feture and no more war will happen, so that everyone will have a happy life, the relationship between countries will be peaceful, too!

Rain City

Keelung is always raining. Every time I go home, my mom always tell me that I must bring the umbrella back with me. Actually, I already used to the weather of Keelung. There will be three or four days raining in a week, if in winter days, it maybe raining everyday. Sometimes I also hate the weather always raining because it is very inconvenience to go outside. Some of my friends live in south are also cannot adapt the weather, they think it is too damp. Although the weather is always wet, I still love this city I live because I think hometown is the most warm place in everyone's mind!

Family

The weather become colder because winter is coming. I go home on Thursday this week so that I can have one more day to relax myself at home. Tonight I took a walk with my mom. We walked along the road and talked a lot. I shared my mom the things happened in school, she also told me about her work things. I think there are no things can be more precious than stay with your family. As for me, I can get along with my familt only on weekend, but they still have to work, so we just have a short time to get along. I think family is very important to me, I love them so much. My older sister will go abroad tomorrow, I wish she can have fun and take good care of herself. We are family, so I hope we can be a happiness family forever, no matter what will happen!

A Pet Mouse

My roommate raise a pet mouse, she's name is LuLu. She is very cute and vigorous, when someone is near to her, she will rush to the direction where the person is and make some noise in order to let the person notice her. But most of times she just sleep, she even can sleep for a long time, maybe whole afternoon. I observe her sometimes and also I find more interesting thing about her. When she sleeping, her posture is very funny and unbelieve.

Look at these pictures.

I think she is the only mouse can do this, she is really interesting!

Issue - Internet Dating

Internet Dating
Now more and more people use the internet to do something different instead of playing games. They use the internet to meet new friends and flow across each other. Most people think it is a easy way to get along with others without knowing their face, so that they can feel more comfortable than talk face to face. Internet dating is pretty interesting, you can meet people from different countries, and people can talk everything they want. After talk maybe someone has a nice feeling about another person, so they will have a date to take one step ahead to know each other. Although internet dating has a lot of advantages to get along with new friends, it still has some disadvantages in fact. For example, people will addicted to the internet whole day, abuse the internet resource and they also waste time to associate with people instead of to do some more important things. On the other hand, girls should be careful when they meet the dating guy because although they have associate with each other on internet, you still cannot sure whether this guy is hypocritical or not. So although internet dating is a good way to make friends, we still have to be cautious in details.

Assignment

Q1:
Actually women rights in Taiwan is already good enough than other countries, but in some parts also exist some problems. For the question, women make only 85% as much as men do for the same job, I think it is very unfair to women and argue for salary is also no use. So I believe many jobs to women is still exist gender stereotyping. Some countries has historical reasons about women rights, people in the country also think women is belong to the low status. For example, women in Arab still have to cover up their face when they go outside, so it is reasonable that women's salary is less than men's. I think the cultural reasons cause most of these problems. Maybe also have other reasons, such as social expectations and pressure, it limit that women's rights progress. So what can be done to fix this problem? I think the most important is to change the concept of women, we have to prove women also can do the jobs that men usually do, and the government have to set into action about women's right policy. So that women's right will progress fast and become better.

Q3:
Women in Taiwan have their status now, but in the early passed years, women's rights have not progressed fast enough. In the passed, women on the TV shows also play the role of poor people or do some very hard jobs, and of course their dressed also simple. But I think women rights is attach importance to most people now, no matter in music videos, news papers, commericals and TV shows, women can express themselves gradually, the conceptabout women also become better. On the other hand, I think men's rights is still as same as passed. Actually women and men in the TV shows is different from the tradition. Now we can see a lot of women rights has progress soon, such as women's election commericals, Nike also has a good commerical about women. Nike women This is Love So I think women and men are already become equal gradually in popular culture. But actually sometimes there still have some exceptions. I think gender stereotyping is still exist, some people stillthink that women is not good enough to do some jobs than men, also they don't care about women rights, I think this problem should be solve as soon as possible, so that women can have freedom to do jobs they like, and will not be limit by gender stereotyping.

HBL

http://www.maxparty.com.tw/4_CustomPage_hbl.asp?MemberID=88897229
HBL it means High school Basketball League. For senior high school's basketball teams, it's the most important thing in every years. Usually I will watch the games if I have free time because I also like to play basketball and the most important reason to attract me to watch is my senior high school's team also attend the competition. It is very exciting, we all wish they can play very well and win the games. I rememberd when I was sophomore, our whole grades students went to the site to watched live ganes, it was my first time to watched the "real" game in front of me, it was really exciting and amazing, I still can't forget the feeling! So I will not miss any games this time, I also wish they can win the first prize!

New Habit

http://tw.youtube.com/index.php
I usually watch TV, play computer games, listen to music in my free time. But recently I have new habit to do, it's watching internet videos. YouTube is a very good web because you can watch thousands upon thousands videos in this web, you can leave your commends after you watch and also can give some advises. I like youtTube because it's easy to use, and I can change languages which I can easy to read. I think it's very convenient. Actually I can spend whole day to watch youTube videos! So try to link the web to search videos that you like, I think you will love it!

A Good Day

Last Friday I went to Tamsui to saw my friends. Since this semester began, we had not meet each other yet, so we planed to have a tea time. I spent two and half hours to Tamsui, actually it was tired to spent so much times on the bus and MRT, but it was very worth because we had a very good time in the restaurant. We talked a lot and shared a lot of things. After tea time, we also went to night market. I think it's very happiness when do some things with your best friends. So I really had a good memory about that day.

Issue - Economice the use of money

Next Victim of the Economic Slump: Your Paycheck
Now the world's economic crisis is become more and more serious. The stock market is almost out of control, so more and more bank go bankrupt. This situation effect all the countries of the world, the price index become more expensive than before and seems never stop. All the things be in deep distress.

What can we do in this serious economic crisis? I think the best way is economice the use of money. Actually, we often buy things but we probably never use it at all, so if we can think more before we buy, maybe we can save some money instead of to buy some unnecessary things.

The other way to save your money is you should shop around every store. Maybe you will find another store sell the thing more cheaper than others. As for me, it is useful to help me save money and also will not at a dsiadvantage when I consume. I think if you have a complete plan to let your revenue and expenditure are balanced, the money will save naturally.

So try to follow these ways to save money, maybe one day you will become a rich man!

Part-Time Job

Now more and more friends of mine have a part-time job. After school they have to catch up with the time to work. Actually, I also think of whether I should find a part-time job or not.

I think money is most important thing to everyone. Further, now I live outside, I have to pay for rent and the electric bill. I don't want to spend too much on some unnecessary things, also I don't want to cost too much money from my parents. So I want to earn some money for myself.

But it is a very big decision because it's very hard to balance between schol and job. My mom also told me if I find a job to do, I will be very busy even don't have enough time to sleep or do homework. So I think I should be very cautious to think about this problem and make the right decision!

I need some change

So far, my school life is regularly, but it's a little boring. Actually, the homework is become more and more, also the exams. So everyday we just study, prepare for exams, sometimes I also have to practice basketball. We don't have time to relax and have some entertainments. I had saw Candance's blog, she said she want to change her life, actually I also want to. I think high school life is my favorite part of my life, everyone study and play together, but college is totally different. I don't like this regularly life, I need some changes. Boring is killing me!

Spanish

Today is Wednesday, we have spanish class. This semester is my first time to learn spanish. So far, I feel great and fun because in this class everyone can talk with teacher and classmates in spanish. We just talk, talk, talk. I agree with that, more practice is useful than writ a lot but you still cannot unsterstand and realize it. After school, sometimes we also talk a little spanish with each other to practice. I very enjoy in this class, I wish I can learn more about spanish every week and use it well!

Issue - Video Games

In this modern world, video games is very popular, not only children like to play but also adults. What is the attraction of video games? I think there are many answers.

In these times, people have more pressures than before, someone worry about the salary, someone still want to find a job, students also have stress about exames. Play video games maybe can help these people relax and bring som smile on their faces when they play and find a way to release pressures. So I think, to these people that's the attraction of video games.

Another reason to play video games is just for fun. Online games are very popular because players can have conversation and they also have to cooperate with each other to win the game. Some people say they can learn how to overcome the hindrances and learn about team work from video games. It is no doubt, but spend too much time to play video games probably is not a good thing. You may be addicted in it, and can't concentrate on your work or school. So I think although video games has a lot of attraction to play, we still have to balance it between work and study. That's more useful to let you relax than addicted in it.

Eagle Eye

Recently I've been watched a action movie, Eagle Eye. It is really exciting and you should focus on every details.

In the movie, a computer system control the internet and every contact with cellphoens and monitors. It's emergency, so the leading role have to do every thing that the computer commend him to do, or he will died.

This movie is really great and exciting, I even had shocked by some tense screens. I will recommend this movie to all my friends because it is very worth to watch!

Oh!...Again....

I had pains in the loins and back again, this time is more serious. Yesterday I just played a exciting basketball game, today I had a PE class. Actually I even couldn't raised my hands up, but I still have to played badminton. I already tried my best to catched the ball but it's really hard to move quickly, so I always missed the timing. But I still enjoyed in class, Candice also came here played with us, we all had a lot of fun and expect next week.

The game

Yesterday was Tuesday, we had a basketball game. We already predicted that we might lost this game, but it's ok because this is our first game, unavoidable we would made some mistakes. Most important thing is that we have to learn more experience from the games, and play harder next time.

Un..
Now I want to say something...

These days was really busy!!!
I need some pillows around me any time!

Issue - Sports

Sports News
Sport is an activity that is governed by some rules or customs and often engaged in competitively. I think everyone must have their own favorite sport.

For me, there are so many kind of sports I like such as basketball, soccer, billiard, badminton. In my free time, I usually watch sports on ESPN, I love it because it's very exciting! For basketball, I watch NBA sometimes, and usually I support LA Lakers because Kobe is so great!

Other sports I also very like, too. But specially for soccer, I think most girls will not like it because they think it's so tired for girls to play, but I still like the passion and excitation about soccer.

I wish I can learn more about these sports which I like because sports it's very important in my life, and I also wish one day I can play these sports very well!

News

Recently I find a great singer, his name is Jason Mraz. I love his music style because his music is very relaxed. First time when I saw him on MTV, I was attracted by his voice, so I link to youtube to watch his music video. His other songs are also pretty good.
Jason Mraz - I'm Yours
I think maybe I will buy his album.
Does anyone want to join me?

Home

Tomorrow is Friday, I can't wait for Friday because I almost go home every week. It's so happy to be home, I can see my lovely family, do anything I want, and even can get out of bed any time and don't worry about I will be late for school.

I like the feeling when I stay home, it can let me relax and forget all about the busy life of school. ( Even though I still have to face it when I back to school ) I just need some rest to let me don't think too much, and want everything to be perfect. So I don't know whether it's good or not.

Anyway, now I want to do most is enjoy the weekend!

A problem

The days passed so quickly, and I have more and more things to do. Recently a thing bother me most is that I don't know what to do about the basketball team because our player is not enought, we only have five or six people, so I don't know we should keep or not.

I think it is very tired to have competitions when we only have five or six people, but some people hope we can continue our team, so it is really bother me and everyone are also hesitating.

As for me, if we really have six people only, I will not continue to play because it's really tired, we cannot take a rest whole game, and if someone get injured, we have on more people can instead. It's a big problem about our team can keep or not. I wish a happing ending, so just let it be again!

The study of humanities

In opinion, I agree with the study of humanities because every classes has it's own value, we could not understand unless we study it. As history, there are so many important things have been found for many years, so I think we have to know such precious history because it let us know about ancient people's life, how they develop citys and the world war....., so many things we have to realize in order to prove the markable history is ture or not.
So I think study humanities is not only can let us know more about human beings, but also you can find more interest things in it. Although someone think a humanities education is waste of time, I still agree with we have to study.

Tired

School has been started for two weeks, this semester I have many things to do. Beside the homework and reports, I also have to care about the basketball team. It's very tired bacause after school we have to practice, sometimes maybe we have competitions.

So I don't have enought time to do what I want, I really want to study because I think knoeledge is very very important, on the other hand, I also want to pass the TOEIC test. So I'm afraid of I cannot cary such heavy pressure this semester.

Waht should I going to do?

I don't want to think too much, just let it be!

I need exercise!!

I am not used to do exercise regularly, so when I woke up this morning, I had pains in the loins and back. It was really painful! I even couldn't raised my hands up!

Why? Just because I played badminton for two hours yesterday. I think I'm really lack of doing exercise for a long time, so caused a little sports injuries. But I still like to do exercise that's also the reason why I'm so tall. So from now on, I wish I can do exercise everyday!!

Hot!

October is coming, but the wether is still hot. Actually, I don't like summer because I am very easy to perspire and it made me feel uncomfortable. Another reason is I don't want to bask in the sun and made my skin become dark.

When will the weather become cool? I look forword to the day coming, but it seems I have to wait for a long time!

Issue-Music Rock!

http://new.music.yahoo.com/

Music is very important to me, I think I cannot live without music. My favorite music style is very wide such as Punk, Rock, and Love songs, but I love boys chorus particularly.

BLUE is my favorite singer, I have every their albums. I start to listening to English music is also because of them. I like their love songs most because it's very touching and smoothing, their voice is amazing, too. But sadly they are separate now, I hope they can have new album soon! BLUE-Best in me

Next is Punk music. Greenday is so amazing, their music is originality and special. I bought their "American Idiot" album, it really let me broaden my view. I enjoy the Punk music when I listen to their songs, I also can't wait to listen to their new album. Greenday-Boulevard of Broken Dreams

Finally is Rock music, I love so many Rock bands. But now I want to recommend a band, it's called Daughtry. Daughtry's vocalist is very special because he is from "America Idol". Although he is not the first place winner, their music still popular. Daughtry-Over You

Respond to Second Life

Second Life is a videogame that I never heard before, but when I finish watched the Introduction to Second Life I filled with curious.

In this virtual reality videogame you can do anything, you can use the money to learn some skills or buy a land.....something like that. Second Life is a game that can supply every recreational activities as same as ture world, so you can do anything here to satisfy the things you can't do in the ture world.

As for me, I have interest in the“Edcation in Second Life”because it seems like you can learn more things in there and take university classes which you want to learn in your own way. So I think maybe I will try to learn how to play the game and manager my second life well, besides that the most important thing is to earn some money!

Open!
