Capability invites laboriousness

Filed under: Uncategorized — eileen85430 @ 3:59 am

The event happened three years ago when I was a ninth-grader. Just like now, it was a difficult time for me preparing for the entrance exam. As that time, my teacher gave me an assignment: record every score that the students got in the quiz and key them into the computer. A few weeks later, I started to get tired of it and felt that I was running out of time. So I asked my teacher if she could choose someone else instead. Unexpectedly, she went out of rage and blamed me in front of the entire class. I felt ashamed, hurt, and unhappy.

The next day, my teacher said to me, “I gave this assignment to you because I trust you. I know that you have the ability to handle it. But you are too nervous. Things are not that hard as you think. ” Not until then did I realize that all my teacher did was for my own good. “Capability invites laboriousness.” I’ve beard this saying many times. However, I’ve never thought that this has anything to do with me. But now I know when I am capable of something, just do as much as I can. After all, with the experience learning from working, I can build my confidence and ability.

Going to the beach

Filed under: Uncategorized — eileen85430 @ 8:53 am

I want to go to the beach. Summer is coming. The best thing is going to the beach, enjoy the cool water, and make a sand castle. I have never been to a beach. The only way to see the beaches is watching “travel and living”. The program always introduces beautiful beaches all over the world. Those people who lying or walking on the beach seemed so relax and enjoyable. Though, I may not go to those beaches now, I can still go to the beaches in Taiwan. Going to the beach is the thing I want to do in this summer.

     Nei-hu locates in the suburb of Taipei city. In order to release the density of population in the center of the city, Nei-hu has become the new prosperity residential area. I have been living in Nei-hu since I was born. There are lots of thing I can tell about Nei-hu.

     First of all, parks and banks, such as Da-hu Park and Be-hu Park, provide us with a place to participate in outdoor activities on the weekend. Viewing the flourishing trees and colorful blossom, all stress is relieved. Mountain climbing, in addition, is another good option of outdoor activity. Surrounded by sort of trees, you can step on the soil, inhale the fresh air. You will find out what a wonderful world it is.

     Secondly, there is De-An department store. No matter go shopping in the boutique or finding something to fill your stomach, you will be satisfied in this area. Last but not least, with the accomplishment of the MRT, it’s very convenient for the residents or visitors to transport to any where.

     Even if I couldn’t live in Nei-hu all my life, I’ll always consider Nei-hu my favor place. After all, Nei-hu is where I grow up, witch contained lots of memories and no other place can replace its place in my heart.

 

Moon festival

Moon festival
A circular moon hanging up on the sky
The smell of BBQ spread in the air
Hearing the ancient story descended by our ancestor
Six moon cakes have already lain in my stomach
Turning the pomelo’s rough rind into a funny cap
Moon festival

My Diary

Dear Diary,                                                                                Thursday, February 21, 2007

     I got a coupon of SUBWAY from my classmate. I felt full of joy. I love the sandwich in SUBWAY so much. However, the price is too expensive for me. So I seldom ate it before. The coupon was just like wonderful news. With the coupon, I can buy one sandwich and get one free from February 20 to 24. At the moment I got the coupon, I decided to use it and enjoy the delicious food.

     In the day February 20, I was excited from morning. And I went to SUBWAY after school. The sandwich was so good to eat. I shared it with my mother. Even though this seemed trivial, in the senior year when there is just books and tests. So I really appreciate the small joy. This is the enjoyment of my daily life.

The picture was taken during the graduation trip in the ocean park. We were trying to act like the artwork behind us. The artwork looks like flowing water or fish swimming in the water. We don’t know what’s the message that the designer wants to convey. Everything we do were just for fun. This picture is the best memory of our happiness in the graduation trip.

Sleeping in the class

Filed under: Uncategorized — eileen85430 @ 10:37 am

     In the English class last week, Mr. Louis was teaching a new lesson, “We are the world.” Every student focused in class, except Samuel. He felt sound asleep because he stood up late for preparing the math test. He knew that it was awful to doze off in class; however, he couldn’t help it.

     Meanwhile, he had a dream. In the dream, he was teaching English grammar, just like Mr. Louis. And all of his students fell asleep, just like what he did in class. He was very angry about the scene he saw. He felt that he wasn’t being respected. Full of anger, he yelled out “Wake Up!” Somehow, the voice didn’t seem like his own. It was Mr. Louis’s voice! He woke up immediately. Nevertheless, he didn’t dare to look at Mr. Louis. He even heard his friend laughing at him. He felt ashamed and apologized to Mr. Louis. After this lesson, Samuel decided to go to bed early everyday so that he wouldn’t doze off in class anymore.

     “Happy Birthday!” Everyone said to Tim. June fifth was Tim’s birthday. His mother had known that he always wanted a puppy to keep him company. In order to give Tim a big surprise, Tim’s mother decided to send a puppy to Tim as his birthday gift. When Tim opened the present, he was full of joy. He saw a gorgeous puppy lay inside the box. He giggled and named the puppy Candy.

     One day when Tim walked Candy in the park, he leashed it on a bench and played with other children. After a while, he took a glance at Candy. Candy was gone! He totally had no idea where Candy would go. Tim was so helpless and burst into tears. He went home with awful feelings. He felt his heart broken. As soon as he got home, he saw Candy sitting in front of the door waiting for Tim’s coming. Tim was so happy that he Candy up and kissed it. “I’ll never leave you at the park alone anymore!” Tim said with happiness.

So, she decided to take the kitten and its family home. In order to avoid her mother’s resentment, she promised her that she would take good care of them. With her mother’s permission, she took them home. The mother cat looked happy. It seemed that it was planning something in its mind. Exactly!
