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 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!

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.

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.

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!

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!
