#17 journal

My first plane for winter is coming back to China at December 22. The most essential reason that I want to come back to China is I don't find advanced Karaoke TV in Minneapolis. Then I will go to Wuhan where my roommate's girlfriend is studying. I was familiar with his girlfriend and her roommates when he chatted with them by ICHAT. And they invited me to travel to Wuhan. That's sounds good. I will stay at Wuhan about three days. Then I will come back my home in Changsha at Hunan province. I already was reserved to go to the Karaoke TV by seven friends. I think I will get busy on holiday. The second plane is to do exercise. The reason is I don't have enough fat or muscle to defense cold weather in Minnesota. Before I came to America, I went the gym everyday and I will eat some food which have protein after doing exercise. My friend told me it will let me strong. But it didn't work. I hope I can be stronger during this vacation. And also I will practice driving to prepare driving at Minnesota next semester. The momentum that I will do exercise and drive is negative temperature and frozen road.

I will take grammar, math, economics, chemistry and rock music next semester. I want to major in math and economics. So I will learn calculus next four semesters. It's test for my perseverance. My friend told me that if average scores in calculus one is 65, in calculus two will be 50, and in calculus three will be 35. I hope I can pass the courses. I'm really interested in music but I don't have enough knowledge about that. So I decide take rock music in next semester. And when someone talk about music, I have something to discuss. For now, I will say I like music and singing. That's all. It's not good enough for my interesting. Even though I'm interested in music, music can't be a major for me because it hard to make money. And I believe I can't be a famous singer. So taking some classes is enough for me.

#16 a photo

This picture is my roommate’s work. The tree grow on we must pass through the street every day. I think it is gorgeous that autumn in MN. In my hometown, people planed trees that are green on the every season. So we can’t feel the feast of vision in my hometown. I have to say autumn in MN is a romance season even though we have lots of works to do. By the way, I think my roommate is a good photographer.

plants vs zombie

Yeah, there are zombies on your lawn! This is a very cute and interesting video game. I played it after I came to America. In this game, you have sunflowers to produce sunshine, and then you can use sunshine to buy variety of plants to protect you. Maybe you think the plants are cute, but the most interesting thing is different kind of zombies. Ex. some people like football game before they died. When they become a zombie, they will wear football outfits. I strongly recommend this game. Have fun with it.

my favorite singer

Aska Yang is my favorite singer in Taiwan. He took part in a show of singer selection. Just like America Idol. I don’t like singing before high school, because I don't have a charming voice. But when I watching this show, I felt there are lots of people just like singing. Whatever others said, they still have enthusiasm of singing. Aska is a special one. When I listing his singing, I felt so touching and there is no reason to care what other people said. Some songs, we just sing to ourselves. I like singing after listing his singing.

#13 cat-Miro

It is well know that Super Mario is a very classic game. It was a precious memory for many people in Childhood. But I strongly recommend this game——Cat-Mario. This is an extremely abnormal game. I was tormented by this game last year. There are lots of traps that can let you die. I hope you can enjoy it.

#12 compare and comtrast

I find two articles about that Dalai Lama visited near Tibet. One of this is from New York time. Another one is from a Chinese website. Title of New York Time is Dalai Lama Visits Town Near Tibet, Angering China.

compare:
In two articles, they described several common things. First, they said the fact that Dalai Lama arrived Tawang at Nov. 8, which highlighted lingering border dispute between India and China. Second, two article are similar in viewpoint of Chinese government and Dalai Lama. Chinese government claimed that once again exposes the nature of the Dalai Lama as anti-China. And Dalai Lama said that it is nonpolitical visit. Thirdly, in same way, two articles said that some people in Tawang welcomed Dalai Lama and Chinese felt anger to this thing.

comtrast:
Even though two articles said that some people in Tawang welcomed Dalai Lama, the Chinese newspaper mentioned that some middle class in Indian is indifferent to Dalai Lama and they thought he just a Buddhist monk who has nowhere to go and was received by Indian. Chinese newspaper also claim that some Indian officer complain secretly that Dalai Lama didn’t obey his promise that it is nonpolitical visit. Another difference is New York Time described lots of details about residents in Tawang and how to welcome Dalai Lama, just like one resident said that nobody is more important to us than him. The Dalai Lama is our god but Chinese newspaper had nothing about residents in Tawang, but highlighted Indian newspapers beautify Dalai Lama’s visiting and Indian was encouraged by Indian and American. Two articles also differ in relationship between Indian of China. New York time claimed that the two Asian neighbors are vying for economic and political power in the region. However, the Chinese newspapers emphasized that Dalai Lama flatter Indian and depreciate China to alienate relationship between two countries.

Someone said that you are as stupid as a pig. But not every pig is stupid. It is a very smart and cute pig. It is a old video, but I saw it this week.
