First time to skate

Last Saturday I went to skate with my classmates at U of C. That was my first time to skate in Canada. There were a lot of people. I was a little scared, but I felt a little lucky because there was a boy who did not know how to skate either. I went to skate with him. Both of us used something to prevent us falling down. Though we skated very slow and could not experience others' fun, we also had fun in our way. We talked a lot and saw others falling down,:-). There were someone who really skated very well and it was also fun to look at them. There was a hocky game that night, so there were more people than usual. There were also some cheeres during that night. Actually I went there as soon as I finished my work, and it took me more than half an hour to get there. I felt very tired after a six-hours work every, and I had thought to call my classmate that I would not come because I wanted to have a rest. However, I don't know why I didn't call, and I'm so glad now that I didn't call my classmate that time. Because I really had fun that night.113. I think there some pity. I hadn't skate without the stuff which protected to not fall, and that made feel a little boring, but I really scared to fall down. Sometime I think maybe falling down can make skating more funny. Maybe I won't scare to skate any more after I falling down some times o(∩_∩)o...

The first blog of the new semester

Today we're supposed to write new blog with the topic of the best way to learn a foreign language (in my own opinion, this topic is a little boring,because we always discuss this topic ~~~ just for fun). I think it should a combination of studying in class and out of class. Study in class can make us learn more academic language, and do much help in our other programs' study. Also it is a more effective way to communicate with others. However, only study in class is not enough.We need fresh air! Then study out of class may make language more interesting. We can learn lots of stuff that the text books don't have outside. I think communication is a very effective to improve language learning skills.Anyway, textbooks are boring more or less, on the contrary, making friends and communicate with others can make us feel more comfortable and more interested in learning foreign language. Like this winter holidays, though I didn't go to school, I didn't feel that my English didn't improve. I had more chance to chat with my workmates while I'm working, and that did help to my English. I feel happy and English doesn't seem that boring as before. Anyway, Language is just a tool to get information and show our expressions,which is based on some system study in class, if you want to make your conversation more effective.

The Christmas Party

Yesterday my workplace,Safeway,had a Christmas Party at a bar near there. The party began at 5pm. I went there after my work at 6pm. This is my first time to go to a bar. It made me a little exciting at first, but then I found it was a little boring. There were few people I know,and many people I saw before but not very familiar. I planned to go with two other Chinese ladies.But another lady who is very friendly to me at work came as soon as I got on my clothes.Then I decided to keep company with her. After her coming, she treated me a beer. Then we talked, laughed, and took pictures. This time I felt very interesting. I took many pictures with my colleague and talked much. I knew more about them then before. Maybe because the alcohol,I can communicate with them more fluently. We drank,ate and talked till 11pm.Anyway, it was better than I thought......

Take a rest

Finally, we finished.Yesterday is my final day in this semester.What's more, it's my final workday on campus as well! How excited I am!! To tell the truth, I really like the job on campus and I can work there next semester if I just send them an e-mail.However,I heard that our homework next is crazy.So I have to give up this job. I was excited yesterday because not only it was the final day, but my supervisor give me a greeting card! This is my first greeting card in Canada.
She said she really liked working with me because of my optimistic approach to work. By the way, she won't work there too,because she had found a better job. I'll miss her.There were some days that only she and I worked there in night. We worked very well and she was very kind even I did something wrong. Anyway,we hardly work together again,and I hope that I will have that kindly colleague in the future when I find another job. Now I just take a big~~~ rest. hehe I like holiday~~

The last one !!!!!!!

This is my last blog in the semester. How excited I am! Today we had a small party to celebrate our last class in this semester. We brought our food from home or bought some desert in markets. All of them are very delicious~~. I brought some noodles which is made by my mom this morning, but at the end of the part, I had to bring some back home-- I had brought so much that there are still lots of noodles left, I was a little depressed~. Oh, we also took pictures! I like taking pictures with my friends, classmates and our teachers, though I rarely see myself in the pictures because I don't like myself in pictures, except those taken when I was very very little.
Somehow I feel a little upset. In China, after the winter or summer holidays, I could still go to the same class with the same classmates. But now, I'm not sure we'll have the same classmates and teachers after the winter holiday. I think I've just begun to be used to the new environment, but I have to get a new beginning soon. I hope that nothing will change but the text books after this winter holiday......

Nothing

I still have two blogs to write, but I don't know what to say. I just study and work these days and haven't do anything special. I think a special thing happened recently could be our presentation. This time we tried a way to present. In the last presentation in the mid-term, we divided into 10 groups, and we planned to have 5 groups presented each day. By the way, we used powerpoint last time and one group just needed to present one time. However, this time, though we also divided into 10 groups, we used posters, and we had 10 people presented together! One of a group stood beside their poster, the other can walk around the classroom to have presentation from others'. In that case, we had to present more than once, and most of us had presented for three or four times. After the presentation, we are all tired, but anyway, we had practised some times before our instructor came to listen our presentations. I like this kind of new presentation. First, I haven't seen this kind of presentation,it's a little exciting. Second, we prepared much for it,like designing and drawing our posters. Third, we can really have fun when we have others' presentations.

The last week

How time flies!! I can't believe we only have one~~ week left! It seems I've just come to this programme. This would be an exciting week, but also a little busy. Actually, last week was the most busy week. We had lots of work to do. However, I went through it finally, unbelievable~ We are going to finish our term, every time I think about this, I will ask myself: is that true?
As usually, I can't help thinking about how to spend my holiday. In fact, I had delayed this kind of thinking for about half a month. On one hand, I was so busy to think about it because of the class and my part time job. On the other hand, the winter holiday here is so...so...so...short!!! In China, we have a very very big holiday during the winter because of the traditional festival. Then I would go out with my friends. I like winter because I had a lot of fun and memory in winter. And recently I found that the smell here is a little like the smell in my hometown~~ hehe Winter is always cold but has a lot of fun.

My cellphone in Calgary

Last Friday I got my first cellphone in the new city. I went to the Chinook Centre with Sharon after our class. Actually, I just wanted to get some information about cellphone and have a walk with my friend. However, when I came to a salesman and told him that I wanted to buy a cellphone, he introduced me a student plan. Then he kept talking and talking, and I don't know why I said yes when he asked me whether I want this kind of cellphone. Maybe because this is my first time to buy something from a salesman, I don't know how to say no to him. After that I signed a three-year contract and got a cellphone. Anyway, I bought myself a cellphone. I usually have no idea about which one to choose, most decisions are made by my parents. But I came here, I found that I had to made many decisions by myself. Though it is a little strange for me, but I really enjoy it. I like planning my future by myself, I like making money and buy something I really like, and I also have to be responsible to me decisions. My friends often say I will never grow up like a adult. But I'm really growing up, anyway, better than them,hehe

Ho Ho Ho~~ ^-^

Another nice weekend is going to be finished. I have just finished my work today, and I'm very very sleep now. When I walked in my work place about 11pm today, it seemed like I would fell down on the floor at anytime. It's very lucky there was few customers because my brain couldn't control my action very well that time. I even couldn't remember how could I walk any more. You may wonder why could I write my blog if I'm so sleep. I was a little wake up when I signed out. And when I got home, I was still a little excited about my new bed~~~. I got my bed today!!! Ho ho ho~~~ Happy~~ I got my bed all by myself today and I spent the whole morning to do it. The place where I got my queen mattress is very far away from my home, so I had to rent a truck to take my mattress and me home. Today I got up at 8 o'clock, and it was very cold outside. Though I had put on my cold clothes, I still felt very cold. Anyway, I had been outside for about more then three hours. But I think it's worthy. Now I had a bigger bed, and there's room for my honey bear. hehe Maybe it is happier than me. Now I will sleep with my honey bear and have a nice dream~~~
Good night everyone!

What's wrong ?

Today I was upset all day!! First, I had an appointment with a man in the Immigration Service centre at 9 o'clock. I got up a little late, so I got there at 9:05. I went to the main recipe station, and the woman said the man I wanted to meet was not there. So I had to wait for minutes (the woman told me so). But I had waited for twenty minutes! Then I asked the woman that whether the man would be there today, because I would be late for school if I left there too late. Then she phoned the man. Guess what, the man was in his office all the time, and I had waited outside for twenty minutes! Fortunately, I got a bus to c-train station after finishing the appointment, and got to school a little early. However, bad things always comes after the good things. I went the third floor in the education building where has some computers. I printed out my attending lecture project. Then, I forgot the time. When I realized the time, it was 10:32, my class began at 10:30. I run downstairs, and got into my classroom before the attendance. Things seemed not very bad till now. I went to work after the class, and worked an usual. The worst thing happened after I finished my work. I left my school bag in my work place~~~ And what's worse, the same thing had happened at the same day half a month ago! The same day, the same workers, and the same situation. The only difference is that last time I realized I had made the big mistake as soon as I got on the c-train, and this time, I realized it before I went out the building. But it was still late. The door of my workplace was logged, and the supervisor was gone. I had to come there early tomorrow morning. Though I don't have too much homework tonight, but my phone card is in my school, I planed to phone my friends in China. This is a new card, so I can't remember all the pins of it. This is the only time I can phone them in this week, and I had promised. I really want to cry now ~~~ When I was in the c-train, I even didn't read the novel I had borrowed(I brought a bag which had my clothes with me, and the novel was in it) nor close my eyes for once, because I was afraid that I would miss my station~~ I asked myself "what's wrong with me today?" all the way home. After I thought and thought, I only could say to myself, OK, anyway, I had brought my keys in my pocket so that I don't have to wait for my parents till 11 o'clock. What's wrong with me today? 55555~~~ I don't want to suffer this kind of day any more~~~

A Meaningful Reading Day

I went to Western Canada High School this Monday. There were some information and presentatios about the universities in Canada, which were prepared for 12 Grade students. There were many universities than I thought, it was about 58 universities. Of course U of C was included and it was the first presentation I heard. By the way, there was only twenty minutes for each university. The most impressive university I thought was the University of Victory. It was so~~ beautiful!! There is a big circle in its campus, and all of the education buildings are in the circle while most of other buildings are out of the circle. What's more, the campus near the sea very much. So the picture of it is very colourful. There was another thing that left me a deep impression besides the introductory of universities was the presentations. All of the presentations were amazing! First, all the presenters were very confident and they had no note in their hands. Second, they spoke very fluently, and they could answer any questions in their areas. Third, their powerpoint were different but very nice. Some of the powerpoints had some basis notes, some of them had some pictures and videos, and some of them didn't need operated, they could change imagines by themselves. In a word, I saw many fantastic presentations this Monday. It was really meaningful day.

Oh My God !

It should be a very nice weekend because the four days off. I shouldn't feel very tired of my work. What's more, I don't have to go to school to work on Tuesday, because it will be closed. So I just have to work on Saturday,Sunday and Monday in the market. But! Actually, I forget the right time on Saturday!! The wrong time which I remembered was much later than the right time. In fact, it was my next week schedule. And when I realized it, it was too late. It was only about two hours left before I "shift off"~~ and the market called me as soon as I found the right time.- - They asked if I was alright and why I didn't go to work. I was very embarrassed when I told them that I remembered a wrong time table. So, the result was that I didn't go to work on Saturday. I was a little upset. I didn't know whether my boss will dislike me because of my carelessness. But later, I thought this little accident in another way, that maybe I could think this weekend is a real "off day", and I could have a full~~ rest. I still can't believe I forget my schedule, I don't want make the same mistake any more! ~_~
