A letter

Today, I received a letter from my mom. At first, I felt a little nervous to open the envelope because I didn’t know why she chose to write the letter instead of just calling me directly. The moment I opened it, I laughed. She sent me a newspaper clipping and a slip of paper. Besides reminding me to take care of myself, she said that the article on newspaper is somewhat like her experience and I can learn from it. The main point of the clipping is an experience of a student who went to foreign country alone. She said that she had learnt how to handle the mood when she was alone. At that moment, you will be in your own place and no one can influence you. You can use more time to think lots of things, such as who am I or what things you want to accomplish in the future. It is a good way to make you know yourself profoundly. I consider that I still need to control myself well because sometimes in my free time, I chose sleeping and playing my computer instead of doing some significant thing for myself. But I don’t want to spend most time on study. Maybe I can spare a period of time to travel by myself! Who knows that what will happen in the future?

an intereseting game

Last Friday, I went to meet with Thai girls with my roommate again. This time, we were intrigued with a new thing, that is, poker card game. We taught each other the poker games in our countries, and the game we play the most is “心臟病”. There were also punishments for the loser. For me and my roommate, we had to eat a little bit durian snacks. Oh, I need to say that it is a horrible experience that you won’t want to try again, for the smell of durian kept around my nose even I had eat it for a great while. On the contrary, if Thai girls lose, they had to eat up wasabi favor cookies! It was a joyful process to learnt foreign language and different poker game from their country. By the way, they had a small pot to cook! And the spicy taste of noodles is excellent. They told us that we can buy the Thai instant noodle in a small market near the Taichung Station, and I can hardly wait to rush there to buy a lot!     

test and disease

As time passed quickly, we finally faced the coming of exam week. But something keeps disturbing me is that I got a bad cold in this important moment! In the path, I would choose to go to bed early and have a great night. In this way, I often recover soon and do not need to see a doctor. But!!! This time I went to see a doctor early just because of the cheap registration fee- It only cost NT50 dollars .Then, I regretted I made this poor decision. At first, I only had a little sore throat and the symptom is not apparent. But after taking in the medicine, I coughed seriously and sometimes couldn’t say a word. It really annoyed me because I can’t finish my work consistently. For example, when I want to transcribe the video from Fiona, the process always had been interrupted because I can’t keep myself from coughing. It is really a big big trouble , for I have to meet Teresa tomorrow. The good news is that Fiona’s oral exam is delayed to next week. Although I always tease God when I read the Western Literature, I still hope that he can spare some luck to me and bless me to recover as soon as possible.

something terrible

So sad :( My mobile phone had sent to be repaired. Without it, I can’t do many thing s as my wishes. At morning, I depend on the clerk to wake up. Because I have no watch, so I use it to check time in daily life, and now I don’t know when I should go to class in some times. And I also use it to take notes of what I should do in the next few days and other important information. At leisure time, I can check my facebook and English news to train my reading capability, but now I can’t. Besides, if my parents or friends have something important to tell me, I can’t receive the messages. The worst of all, it wouldn’t come back until next week!!!

an interesting night

Since my recent life is too dull and annoying, so I decide to talk about the interesting experience two weeks before. Thanks to my roommate, so I could visit 樸軒(well, I have no idea how to spell it) to see horror movie with Thai. At first, I had a little bit scare because the light were turned off, which made me recall the ghost-stories that were told by senior in welcome camp. But after several minutes, this feeling was replaced by a kind of appreciation, for there was no subtitle on that Thai horror movie, but they even translated for us in patience! And I also found that the best way to train speaking skill is to chat with foreign people because you will try whatever word you can use to convey your meaning. At that night, I fortunately had the chance to taste Thai instant noodles. Well, it just liked the taste I had experienced in Bali Island and actually I still like Taiwanese food the most. In the end, the ghost is not as scary as I had imagined before, but I still had a good night thereJ. By the way, some people practiced for choir competition at basement these days. It sends shivers down my spine!        

My recent condition

 I think the first year of college is an important step to decide what kind of person I would be. I think I have a little got lost in these days as I spent much time on choir and cheerleading competition. Although I didn’t regret joining in these two events, but sometimes, I would confuse and not knowing what I am doing. It seems that I always busy myself with trifles but not to do the significant things that really need to be finished. So maybe it is the time that I should change my lifestyle to adapt to busy challenge new life. I think this process is what exactly makes us mature and independent. Where there is a crisis, there is an opportunity. And the first thing I want to change is never lounging in bed again!
