Final journal

Time travels as an arrow.
The first year of my college life would have passed, and this is the last journal in John’s writing class. In fact, I thought I was lucky that could be taught by teacher John because I thought he was really an outstanding teacher of my college teacher because I can feel he was responsible and have good-ability of English.
Sometimes I thought really sluggish to attend the class, though. I understand the more I come to the class, the better I will learn from him. I agree that.
His teaching makes me realize some writing skills and how to build up one paragraph that I never learnt from senior high school. Even though my writing is not good enough, I think I had progressed and better than before.
However, we know this is the last semester that John taught at Chaoyang because he will go back to England to finish his study. It’s a pity that one of good teachers at department of English will leave the school and I will lost a teacher who is master.
His teaching is professional and deep but clearly. Although sometimes I couldn’t sure I was fully figuring out what actually the paragraph’s mean, I learnt the narrative articles and five paragraph etc.
Eventually, I want to thanks John for his teaching, always correct our homework patiently and gave us lots of feedback and useful website.
I was wonder if one day I could learn English excellently as John did.
I hope so.

P.s If I have any problems in my writing or anything about English, can I e-mail to you?
Haha :D

An unbelievable day (修)

Last Thursday morning, I parked my motorcycle at the first parking lot at school as usual. I ordinary had a very wonderful and peaceful day until I finished my last class and labor education. I walked to the parking lot on a good mood, preparing to have a lunch with my friends.
Unfortunately, something annoying and unbelievable just had happened. Did I mistake? Or did my eyes have any problems? I couldn’t believe my eyes. There are some images in my sight: one red paper on the head of my motorcycle and the most unbelievable thing was the wheels were chained by a big lock! They said freshmen were not allowed to park at the first parking lot. For this reason, I paid 100 dollars!
However, it never rains but it pours. When I was going to leave from school, I slipped and fell over from the stairway.
What a lucky day!

Labor Education (修)

I was really amazed when the first time I heard that freshmen should get credits by doing the labor education. It’s not difficult for me to clean my environment but it’s difficult to do the job for giving up my ordinary plan.
Sometimes I don’t have any class in the morning but I have just only one stupid reason to get up early is to do the labor education. Additionally, in my lunch time, I couldn’t have my lunch immediately because of the stupid reason as well.

To be honest, sometimes I also though it is meaningful of the labor education because we make rubbish every day but have little time to clean our environment in the working day. In addition, we can know how hard it is for cleaner to keep our environment clearly.

On the contrary, I still don’t want to do it in regular because I don’t like to change my schedule and get up early for cleaning our school. Sometimes it could be so hard to clean out in such hot day.

Labor Education could be valuable experience for us to know keeping environment clearly sometimes is really difficult, but it could be really annoying as well.

jornal 2 (修)

Many people like to take pictures and they also modify those photos if they don’t look very well. In that condition, everybody wants to make them look beautifully so they sometimes use some software to make their pictures more pretty and good-looking.

I sometimes also do that to modify my photos but I just want them look more prettify. In addition, because the technology becomes more and more advanced now, we can make our photos more pretty. So, we can often see many people’s pictures sometimes look a little different from themselves.
Not only do we modify our own pictures but some sellers also do the same thing in order to make their goods look well.
However, maybe we shouldn’t take so serious on the picture of the merchandises in magazine because the picture that posed sometimes doesn’t exactly look the same as the real one.

Everyone all love seeing beautiful things but we can just “see”. Never take it too serious before you see the real.

paparazzi

Paparazzi are around our life nowadays, especially around the celebrities. When we open the newspaper everyday, we can see how many reports about the privacy of those famous persons. Many people are so crazy about the celebrities’ everything cause they are really interested in these famous persons. Such like Ellen, West Hills, California said: “Celebrities have and always will be the target of the media. It is what the public wants to see. If we choose to be in the public eye, we must accept this as part of the gig.”

There are many arguments of this issue that “Is this world should have these paparazzi?” Some think they shouldn’t go over the top because everyone has the freedom even though those celebrities. Nevertheless, some have another point of view. We could think about why we shouldn’t have paparazzi, or why not.

In fact, paparazzi can help us to keep sight of some famous who usually do bad things, or we will never knew the truth. Their existence can make some alertness for celebrities. Something about those famous we only can see the surface, but paparazzi can discover more amazing detail we don’t know. That’s can help us to figure out the fact.

However, if they focus on too much gossip or the family of those famous, that will be go over the top. Sometimes it could be dangerous. “I definitely think they go over the top. You're talking about a woman and her children! In the past it has been very dangerous to stalk celebrities -- Look at Princess Diana!” by Marla Gill, Yorba Linda, California

In conclusion, I think there are still many more important issues that we should focus on and discuss such us our education and the greenhouse effect. We don’t have to care about the privacy of celebrities. It’s not our business.

My first winter vacation in college

The vacation was long but also short.
I got a new experience this winter vacation. I found a work in a shop that sales clothes for children called “Love Word”.
At the beginning, it was a really big challenge for me. How to sale these small clothes?
I was no idea but still wanted to try. And my application was adopt.

Nevertheless, the working time was really long. It was for 10.5 hours!! It’s too bad cause I had no leisure time to hang out with my friends.
I always thought really tired after working, talking, and standing all day long.

However, sometimes we had some foreign consumers. Well, I thought it was very nervous to introduce our clothes to them because I afraid that my pronunciation was wrong cause them misunderstanding or I couldn’t find proper words to introduce them.
At that moment, I realized how important English is again.

During vacation, I thought a lot of my studies as well. My academic performance didn’t do good last semester. I failed one subject and others weren’t perfect enough either.

Maybe it’s a little ridiculous that I want to be a flight attendant after I graduated from college, studying abroad for my further study.
But I felt disappeared myself in that moment I saw all my scores.
I know I’m very far from my dream now.

Therefore, I made some wishes before the new semester has began.
I wished that I can always warning myself not to be slack off in Language.

And I take TOEIC class, I hope I can make great progress!

backpacking and tour travel trip

Traveling is really important for us in the working day. People today always give themselves lots of pressure and burden in the life, and travel is a good way to make people far away from bad mood.

However, some of them like to travel by themselves because of the freedom called backpacking. Maybe the expenses budget is more expensive than the tour travel trip but the schedule you can plan by yourself, it has a lot of choices that you can decide.
You can also learn how to be independent of others.

Otherwise, if you hate to be alone, tour travel is also a good choice for you. There have a lot of advantages of it as follows:
One, you can make lots of friends in your trip, and your trip can be more colorful.
Second is that there will have one tour guide to introduce the spectacular landscape or the historical remains there.
The biggest advantage is that you can save lots of money than backpacking because you can get more favor.

But whatever you choose, I think the most important thing is that your mind can relax and have fun in your trip.
