The Wonderful Winter Vacation

I had a wonderful and relaxed winter vacation. I did both outdoor and indoor activities and I thought it was good for my soul and mind. In addition, this winter vacation was quite different from my previous vacations because I used to go traveling and play outdoors almost all the vacation before. However, this winter vacation I went to several places , read three books , saw lots of movies and visited the relatives. I learned a lot and I was thinking a lot.


Speaking to my outdoor activities:

January 20th , I went to Taichung Metropolitan Park to fly a kite. That was a beautiful sunny day and I had a great memory.

February 8th , I went to see the festive lantern. There were full of people and all kinds of lanterns of cows. It was cute and every hour there was the "main lantern show": a cute cow played the baseball and there would be a baseball went around! Though the movement of the ball was slow, it was amazing.


February 11th , my good friends( high school friends) and I went to have lunch to a famous restaurant near TungHai University. We were talking about what happended to us last semester while we were having the delicious meal. We didn't see each other for several months so we were excited. After having the great meal, we went to TungHai for a walk. It was wide and beautiful in TungHai.

February 18th, I went to Kaohsiung with my friend. Kaohsiung was a modern city and there were a lot of department stores. We went to Cijin. We had to take a ship to get to Cijin. It was my first time went to there. In addition, we went to Dream mall and we took the ferris wheel . We saw the beautiful night scene of Kaohsiung when we were on the ferris wheel. What's more, we went to Sun Yat-sen University , love river and so on. It was really a beautiful city and made me impressed.

I also had some reunions with my elementary school classmates and my junior high school classmates. In addition, I read three novels and all of them impressed me a lot and made me think a lot.

I thought it was a great winter vacation and I thought I used my time well. I had nothing to regret.

Final

The final exams eventually come. I still remembered the last time I wrote the journal of midterm exam. After the midterm exam I made some wishes like I would study harder for the final exams. However, there were endless activities in my schedule and lots of unexpected things happen to me. I am nervous for my coming exams.

My tutoring student also had exams next week so I made a practice test for him. It is a special feeling because when I was in high school , I also took the same tests from my English teacher. Choosing a proper question and making a test paper was not easy as I thought before. I had to pick some problems that my student had and made the questions for him.

I have to study hard this weekend! I want to stay at home all day these two days.

Let's Party

It was really fun and full of good memories this christmas. On December , 24, the christmas eve, we went to 89k to drink beer and enjoy the great music. There were sevel bands performing that night and one group of them were our classmates! We went to see their performances and celebrate the christmas! The atmosphere was great and we all enjoyed it so much!

On December 25, We went to Le ble d'or to have our party! The theme of our party was wearing a ceremonial dress, and we had to prepare christmas gifts for exchanging. We prepared a lot for this night. Therefore, lots of passerbys looked at us because we were wearing gorgeous dresses.

We ordered beers and a big turkey. The turkey was delicious and fresh. It's meat was juicy! We had a great feast that night.

The most exciting moment was exchanging the christmas gifts. We didn't know what we would get and we had to pick a piece of paper with the number of your gift on it.

We all had good memories and this christmas was really wonderful.

There Christmas comes

Tomorrow is Christmas eve! It means that Christmas is coming. We are going to have a party of ceremonial dress on the night of December 25. On Christmas eve, we are going to a lounge bar to watch the performance of bands. There will be lots of christmas gifts in that lounge bar.

I am busy this month. There are lots of fun activities and my schedule is always full.It is good and it makes me feel that I am in the college life now. However, my mother keeps telling me that don't just play all the time, and she says I should study more.

Journal

November 30

It's the last day of November. We went to the Lavender Forest. It was sunny that day. Though I have lived in Taichung since I was born, I haven't been there before. It was a little shameful. When we got to our destination, I smell the scent of lavender. It made me feel comfortable.

The scenery there was great and there was full of fresh air. If you want to relax yourself and close to the nature, I think there is a good place to go.


December first

I had no schedule this day so at first I wanted to study a lot. There was a test on Wednesday. However, I always wasted time when I had a lot of free time. I always thought that I could do what I should do later so I kept putting off all I had to do. Therefore, I did nothing that night. I didn't open my book for any one page. Actually, I could not remember clearly what I had done that night. It was awful.


December second

I went shopping with Stacy but I just did window shopping. In contrast, Stacy got a lot. Maybe that night was not my lucky day so I could got what I wanted. However, shopping was a kind of exercise. After walking a lot in a place you like(such as in the departmentstore), you could feel really good.

Having a feast is always my favorite

I enjoy eating and having a feast so much and I always have a good appetite. I like to go to the fine restaurant on evey kind of festivals, birthday of friends, anniversary and even just a good mood. Sometimes it costs me a lot to taste so many delicious food but I think it is worthy spending money on eating.

This Wednesday I went to have a chafing dish with Susu, Stacy and Carmen. In the store, it had time limit. We ate a lot in 1.5 hours. I thought having a chafing dish in winter was very comfortable and great. The soup of it could warm our body. I loved it so much!!

I start to expect the Chrismas feast now. I remembered that last year we had our Christmas feast in Chilis. It was really delicious and great.

Chocolate

I am really a chocolate lover! Few days ago I went to see a dentist, and the dentist told me that I had few decayed teeth. I wondered why I had so many decayed teeth because I brushed my tooth on time everyday. In addition, I loved drinking water. I always drank water after I ate snacks or anything. I asked the dentist and after he thought a while, he said" do you like eat chocolate and do you eat it often?"


Oh! That dentist said the right thing because I love chocolate so much! I do live without chocolate and I love all kinds of chocolate. Especially black chocolate.Even when I choose birthday cake, I always choose the chocolate cake. No wonder I have few decayed teeth. The dentist said that because chocolate would melt in your mouth and you can not easily clean it.

When I am a bad mood, I always eat chocolate. It makes me feel happy!However, I should care for my teeth and my weight!
