Oh~~~

I don't know why but I can tell, I start to love to go to a bar. Last Wednesday, I went once and at the beginning I didn't want to get drunk and I told all my friends I would not get drunk. But finally, after I drank a mixed alcoholic drink, I started to get drunk and I started cannot control myself to drink, so at last, I got drunk and I went home very late.....= =

On Friday, I also went to a bar again......At finish, I just went to Den with my friends, but when we got to there, we found that they closed at 11 because the staff wanted to go to bar. Because I worked there, so all my friend and I got a free drive to bar. The lucky thing was this time, this group my friends did not like to drink too much, so I just had a few and I did not get drunk, but we dance for 2~3 hours= =
I think this was even worse.

Personally, I don't really mind to get drunk because I think this is a very good way to make friends, lots of my friends in my working place, I make friends with them in a bar. Also after taking a couple of shots, I even feel better. Although I know that drinking a lot is not a good habit but it just makes me feel relax a lot.

Late night at 1

2008-03-30T23:46:00.000-07:00

Wow....it is very late now but I still don't have the mood to sleep because I am planning how to pass the course (although I seem no hope >.<). Also, because I have so many homework, so I need to plan how to finish them, when to do them and what I can to write. It is a very difficult question. At the same time, I find that I really don't have enough time, I think I work too much!! But I think David is right, he said, "I really have enough, but I don't earn enough." How true he is!!!

Now let me think how many homework I need to hand in....5....Five homework in coming two weeks!! I want to die!!! How can I finish them in two weeks???!!!

Also, I also find a bad news, the final exam starts on April 11.

Poor me....homework, tests and exams.......I poor life...!!!!....

Slowly, it is now 2 o'clock

Time goes so fast!!!

I think I need to type the oral communication project now

Otherwise, I won't have time to do it.....

Hopeful I can finish it in 1 hour....

And now I really don't have anything to talk about so that I think it is the end of this blog and I think I really have enough words... I think next time I will talk about my dream because these days I have some strange dreams. They are related and can be connected..... I can still remember what was happening in the dream. Every time when I sleep, I dream about the same background and just different things happened....

About last week

2008-03-25T00:20:00.001-07:00

Yesterday because of the research project, I forgot to type my blog. But it is not a big problem because I can type it now. I just arrive home. I have to work today and my home is too far awaay from the university. Poor me > . <:

Okay, back to topic. My topic is about last week, so I need to type something about last week. To say the truth, my life in Calgary is really boring. I spend most of my days working in Den and this job makes me so tired. Although I don't want to work, I like money. Who doesn't?

So, last week, I worked a lot. Also I did go to play sport. It is really the time for me to keep fit because I am going to go back to Hong Kong. I don't want all my friends say that I am a fat guy. It is because when I was still studying in Hong Kong, one of my classmates is very fat, so we always laugh at him. Hahaha. I know I am kind of mean but for us, it is friendship. Although it sounds weired, it still works!

I really have a long time not seeing them, about 2 years. I think I am kind of missing them because I miss the time we have fun together. Friends are becoming more and more difficult to make because when we get older, we think differently. The friends that I make when I was ten are all my best friends, but the friends I make after fifteen cannot really be my best friends.

I don't really know why this happen, but I am still glad I have lots of best friends.

Hahaha! I really not following what I have decided to say, but anyway this is still part of my feeling!!

Some feelings

2008-03-14T13:12:00.000-07:00

The blog from now on will not have a specific topic anymore. Therefore, I can write something about myself. This change makes me think that it is really my blog now because the words there are all about me. I won’t think that it is homework anymore; it is just a place for me to express feelings or share some special things with my friends. I would rather like to write more about myself instead of writing specific topic.
During this few weeks, I always write my blog on Sunday because I don’t know how to write. We already have lots of homework about those topics in class and they still appear in my own area. It is kind of boring to do all these writing works.
During this new term, I really feel that I am in stress because I need to worry about my score a lot. I afraid I will fail this course and although I already think I will fail, I still keep worrying.
This feeling is not very good and usually, I cannot sleep very well at night. It is terrible.
Although I really don't know I want to say but many people said that I don't have enough words, so I am now doing what Murray has said- filling lines. This is a very good ways to increase words in the blog because our blog doesn't have any specific topic so I can fill as many lines as I want even though they have no meaning. I think now this blog is more than 250 words so I stop now and go to type my new blog. ^^

Breakthrough

2008-03-09T23:22:00.000-07:00

Breakthrough is a very difficult topic, luckily, in reading class, there is also a similar work. Then I don't need to think too much and I still have enough information.

The most contributed person I want to introduce is Robert Goddard, was the American scientist. I don’t know whether he is very famous or not, but he is known as the father of modern rocket propulsion, the inventor of the liquid-fueled rockets in 1909 and a control mechanism for rocket apparatus. He is contributed because his invention helps humans to have a chance to go to space. In the past, the problem of engine and fuel were the main problems but he invented liquid- fueled rocket, this brings the exploration to the space a big step forward. After people can go to space, they can build space station, which help some experiments and people to detect the space. People can detect the weather more accurate because we have satellites in the space. People can have information from other countries because the satellites receive and send different messages in and out. People have lots of advantages because Robert Goddard has invented liquid-fueled rockets to bring people and equipments to the space.

I really think that he is a great person because his invention really help in different areas. Many people can get advantages from his invention.

World

2008-03-09T21:14:00.000-07:00

This week I don't know what the title is for my blog, so I want to write about something that I have already wrote in my Xanga. Hope that I can translate it into English because I wrote that in Chinese.

I have discovered that the world will not change because of a person, no matter this person is happy or unhappy, and this world will still have sunny days, cloudy days and rainy days….
The world will not stop because of a person, also the world will not move faster because of a person…..
People still need to have their life……
No matter in the bright or dark…..
People can only make themselves happy in their life….

This is what I have written last two weeks. I don’t know why I have this kind of idea, but maybe I understand more now or I still know nothing……

After I wrote this in a few days, I heard my boss said people in the world are waiting for their forever life after this life……. But someone says life is a cycle……..someone says life is a test……..someone says life is only a journey, when you die, you will finish the journey…….

I don't know who is right and who is wrong....

Maybe the only thing I know is life is difficult……

Business

2008-03-02T20:43:00.001-08:00

Well, maybe all the people want to get richer but how we can become richer. This is the problem. If you an engineer or a doctor, although they are all well-paid jobs, we still cannot earn billions of dollars. And many businessmen show that, starting a business is the fastest way to become richest. You can be a billionaire if you are a successful businessman. For successful, different people will have different answers but at least successful means that the business will not go bankrupt. I have thought to become a businessman when I was in high school. I even had a leadership course when I was in Hong Kong. But a big problem happens to me: I have not studied in Canada for three years, so I needed to take English in University and because of English; I needed to choose some scientific subjects in order to get a higher mark to get into the university. After I have gotten into the university, I change my mind because I thought engineering maybe easier to study than business. So although business may bring me lots of money if I am successful, I still think if I take business as a second degree, it will be a better choice. Being an engineer, I can have a better paid job and I can use the money to keep on studying different useful subject. When I have a more stable money support, I can do many things I want and at that time, I will start thinking about starting a business or work for some other jobs.

Reading week

2008-02-24T21:11:00.001-08:00

Finally today is the last day of my holiday; I feel that time pass so fast. I had a week of holiday to rest, but I feel like I only have a day off, but anyways, I should not complain anything, because I had a break at least. Even though I had a week of break, but I still have lots of homework that needs to be done before I go back to school, sometime I do not mind doing some homework during the holiday, but I find it is very annoying to do homework that I don’t know how to do but I still need to do it. But over the holiday I still did some homework that I know how to do, although it took me few days to do research and think about the homework, but at last I still got it done before the holiday. During the break, I wanted to plan myself to go and have some fun and relax myself a little bit, but because the weather is not really steady, so I decided to relax in my home. But I think it has been a good break for me, because I feel very relax, maybe I was too stress about the midterm so that’s why I suddenly feel relax. But now the holiday is almost over, I think I need to get myself back to some serious hard work again. Now the midterm is over, we only got half semester to go till the summer break, just half more semester, need to study hard, and hope everyone had a great time during their holiday.

Dream

2008-02-13T12:39:00.000-08:00

I think I have dream every night. Sometimes, I dream about the future but sometimes, I have nightmare. After Tuesday’s presentation, I know more about dream. Dream can predict future or how often people have dream. There is also some ways for you to recall your dream.
Go back to my main topic, I will talk about my dream which about the mid-term exam last night. Let’s talk about the background first, in EAP3; it is much more difficult than before. Although someone will say ‘Of course, because it is a higher level,’ I think the standard has a huge different. This is also not the main point for my dream, the main point is: I am so nervous about my writing exam. This maybe the fact that I have that dream.
In my dream, I remember I just had the paper and ready to write about it. But the most important thing is I cannot read the question. I don’t know what kind of language is used to write that exam paper. Then I looked around, those people who sat with my and the teacher are totally different. I DON’T KNOW WHO THEY ARE! Then I put up my hand and ask the teacher question about the topic. But when the teacher started to speak, I could not understand the language. At that time, I felt like I dead, no hope. And then the image suddenly changed, it was the day I received my result! I got a ‘0’ on that exam but I can read the sentences now. At this time, I woke up. It is really a horrible dream.

Explorers

2008-02-10T21:47:00.000-08:00

Yep, this is me. Right now, I am so tired that I cannot think about anything, especially 'explorers'. I am still working on my research project and suddenly remember today is Sunday, the last day to type this week's blog. In the Human History, there are so many explorers, they found new lands, discovered new equipments, found the shape of the Earth. Of course they did a wonderful job, but for me I think everyone is an explorer. Why? It is because we always discover who we are. We look for our characteristics. Sometimes we also want to know what we want. In this exploration, we never give up because no one would like to know nothing about themselves. This is what I think as a 'small' explorer.

Of course, nowadays, they are still many 'big' explorers, they are trying to reach the summit of Himalayas or want to reach deeper in the sea and discover what kind of sea animals can live there or even want to know more about human brain. But with limited equipments, they still cannot reach their goal, but human never give up. They keep trying, years by years, there will always a group of people want to be explorers. Why do they want to be an explorer? I don't know because for me, I never think about reaching the summit of Himalayas or so on. Is it their job or hobbit? I cannot answer this question. Anyway, I still think that ethey really do a great job in Human History.

Writing experience

2008-02-01T00:21:00.000-08:00

About my writing experience....
It is very difficult for me to say. I remember that I write the first paragraph when I was grade 1. Maybe many people will not believe but it is true. Every grade 1 student in Hong Kong that time needed to start writing paragraph. And we keep practise this skill for three years. I write my first essay when I was grade 5. Although it was very simple, all are simple sentences and easy vocabulary, it is still my first essay.
Then when I am in higher level, I keep writing essay. When I was grade 10, I needed to write 400 words essay. At that time, I never wrote an outline and free-writing, I just write directly.
Then when I start studying in EAP, I learned how to plan to write an essay. It was so difficult for me at that time because I never try outline before! Slowly, I follow the structure that was given by the instructor. I finally knew how to create an easy essay.
So my experience in writing is to write directly and make it as a free-writing, then organise a little bit. Then that is an essay. Also in the essay, never use some skills that you are not comfortable because they will make your eassy get worse. Using connective words to connect two paragraphs. It is very important because reader can easily follow what you are talking about.
This is my writing experience and I know it is kind of boring = .=.....

2008-01-22T00:34:00.000-08:00

Unbelievable that time goes so fast and I am now studying in EAP3. There is a lot of different between EAP2 and EAP3. Instructors, classmates and the class are all different. There are some new guys joining us most of the class are 'old' guys.

The first different is I change from lecture 1 to lecture 2. For me, it is quite sad because some of my friends are not in the same class with me. There maybe some problems for me to do the projects because my working period is very late at night. I think I may need to change this habit because no one in this class will have the same habit as me I think.

The second different is about the schedule. It is not convenient for me anymore because courses are from 11-4. There is an hour break between. It seems class are much longer than before. Also, as I mentioned before, I like to work late at night. That means I like to take a rest in the afternoon. this schedule shorten my resting time a lot. So I think my habit should be change, otherwise, it is no good for my health.

The main different is EAP3 is much more serious than EAP2. Although it is only my feeling, I still think it is true because assignments and projects are more than before and they are much more difficult. Also, instructors are no longer remind us the due day anymore. What can I say?? 'Welcome to university!'

2007-12-06T12:37:00.001-08:00

Today is the last day of the courses.
Starting from tomorrow, there will be a three days exam.
Time goes really fast, so quickly, I come to the end of the courses.
Although I am still wondering whether I can go to a upper level or not, I still hope I can do my best.
Sometimes I will just want the time goes faster because I can finish university earier, but sometimes I will want the times goes slower because there are always something I will miss.
Anyway, the only thing I know now is I have still not studied yet but I will do it tonight. Of cause I will still have enough sleep because I think this is the most important thing before exam. This is my exam experience.
And one good news is this is the last blog I need to type but I think I will keep typing it, not for homework, only base on my feelings.

2007-12-03T01:43:00.000-08:00

I had a party last night.
Everyone there had lots of fun.
But I left early and didnt' drink too much.
I know you guys will ask me why.
this is a good question.
My answer is I have lots of homework to do!!!
tomorrow I need to hand in the speaking jouranl and reading assignment3
although it's near the end of term and everyone one is very busy, we still want to have a rest.
my friend always tell me to stop dreaming anymore because I day-dream a lot.
but I thnk this is good because I love to sleep very much.
I know most of the people know this secert.
haahaa
ok
I am really tired and don't want to say anymore
type next time

2007-11-27T20:05:00.000-08:00

I finally finish the reading project 2
It is very difficult because I reallt don't know what MLA is.
And for this two weeks, I think those are bad week for both of my partner and me because I keep being sick and my partner hurt his leg.
Maybe all the people have too much pressure because it's near the end of this term and lots of works and studies.
Hopefully, this kind of situation will not happen anymore because I really don't want to be sick anymore.
I have really good rest for these two days because I sleep a lot. I have not had a good sleep since September. Now I am getting a lot better and tomorrow I think I can attend class again.
Hope there will not be a lot of work for me to catch up; otherwise, I think I will die.
Really don't have much to say when I only stay at home and the feeling about staying at home because of sick is very boring...
I don't want to try this anymore!!!

2007-11-26T14:56:00.000-08:00

today is a very cold day and unluckly I sick again = =
I don't know why I always sick and this time I have a fever.....
Maybe is because of too many homework and too many works
mm
Although outside is cold and snowing, it is still a very good news because it's time to go snowboarding....
I have waited for it for a long time
It seems very exciting....
This term is nearly ended, that's why I am typing my blog
I think by the end of the term I need to have 12 blogs
that's a lot of work...
today I just type to here because I am very tired
I need to take a rest

2007-11-22T01:21:00.000-08:00

today is just a crazy day
I off at 12:30!!!!
How terrible it is.
I am now very sleepy but tomorrow I have two quizzes , not tomorrow is today
some problems in my brine
so I need to study now
poor me
why do I need to study at mid-night??!!!
you cannot imagine how try I am now.
But I still need to study and think about my project.
I think we really don't have enough time to do the research!!!
But I have no right to change it.
So I still need t do it even I cannot sleep.
poor me >.<

2007-11-19T21:48:00.000-08:00

Time goes very fast.
After about three months, the course will be finished.
Of course this sounds exciting but more and more homework is coming.
Every week, assignment, project or journel keeps coming.
Just want this kind of day can pass quickly.
It is not a good thing to have too many homework at the weekend. I think most of the people will agree with me. Anyway I still need to work hard to pass this course and then get into level 3. This is my goal now. I hope everything will just happen normally.

Today is not a good day

2007-11-02T00:02:00.000-07:00

Today, I went to school normally. Although I still want to rest more because of the sickness, I still cannot. It is very difficult to wake up especially when you are sick. Your head and the body will be very painful.
Luckly, one more day to go then we will have two days holiday. This sounds excited. I am so ready for it. Sleeping for a whole day without any phone call or food. I just want to have a deep sleeping. This is the only wish in my mind now and hopefully it can come true.
Alright, not talking about my wish but talking about my day today. I still worked in Den and it was a very busy night, I forgot how many burgers or wraps I had made and I also forgot how many fries I had fried. The only thing that I could remember was the bills. They never stopped. People kept coming and they ordered so many food to eat. At that time, I just wanted to tell them the kitchen was close, you guys can go home now. But I know it wouldn't work. After nine o'clock, ouside were even busier than before. People were holding a beer and chating with their friends and the music was very loud.
In conclusion, today is not a good day = .=:

Feelings

2007-11-01T00:05:00.000-07:00

oh~~~my Halloween....
Why do I need to work on this night???
I don't know....and at the same time it is wing night
I really don't want to work because I am really sick
I think I just having a cold because the weather keeps changing everyday.
Not only the weather, school work and homework are also part of it. When they group together, they make me sick!!
I don't know why I keep have so many questions and the questions seems no answer.
Maybe I really need to ask for help.
I hate sick because it makes me very uncomfortable.
I hate sick because it makes me sleepy.
I hate sick because it makes me cannot concentrate.
I hate sick because it makes me cannot work normally.
I hate sick because it makes me willing to stay home.
Alright, beside talking about bad feelins; let's talk about good feelings.
Winter is coming, so it means I can go snowboarding!! I am very excited. although snowboarding is great, I don't have a car to drive me to other mountains. I can only snowboard at COP.... That's no good for me I think.
Mid-term has just passed. Luckly, I pass all my subject. Thanks God!!

I don't know what I should say

2007-10-27T21:16:00.000-07:00

Suddenly, just want someone can help me because I have too much homework to do!!!!
Why we should have that much homework at the same time?? I don't I know and I think no one know. I have not typed my Blog a long time because there is mid term and homework. If the Blog does not need to be marked, I think I would not type it anymore because my another blog, I have also not typed it for long time.

Classes have already started for about two months and what I think is too much homework but don't have time for me to understand those I have learned. Is it the way that how Canadian learn things but in high school, I can have time to understand and do my homework. Maybe this is what people say 'This is university!!'

After talking my feelings, let's talk about how my life in these two weeks. I can't believe I have finished my mid-term because time goes too fast!! Also for my work, I have received my first salary, how great it is!! I am just think how should I use my money, spending or saving?? Maybe I can just spend the half and save the other half. Haha!! How clever I am. (Maybe there is too much homework and homework makes me crazy!! Poor me = .=: )

Starting busy and more busy

2007-10-16T23:40:00.000-07:00

I just got a job in the university and I am the cook there.
Although I am the cook, I still not think it is an interesting things to do. I just feel that other cooks don't like me and don't really want to talk to me and I feel lonely.
I work every Tuesday to Friday. I still don't know why I need to work that much.
Anyway Mid-Term is coming and I am still not feeling ready with it.
Still concerning about what will be in the test.
Poor me >.<

Very late at night

2007-10-08T23:35:00.000-07:00

It is now 12:36 a.m. and it is very late now but I have just finshed the word journal.

It is more difficult than what I expect.
Although I am still working hard, I still want to share what I did on Thanks giving day. I went to Calaway Park. Please don't get excited yet. It is not as fun as I think. I thought it would be more fun before but the truth is totally different.
Those rides are not very exciting. Compare with what I have tried before, those rides are just for childern. Although the rides are not exciting, I still found something beautiful. The views beside the park are very beautiful. It is difficult to find from the city I come from.
So next time, I think I will go hiking instead of going to the amusement park.

Just talk to here first.
I need to do my homework.

The First Post

2007-10-05T11:55:00.000-07:00

This is the first day to use this Blog.......... Such a nice thing (maybe)

I will keep working with it (I hope...)

Also this is the day before the long weekend

I am really looking forward.

Alright, as this is the first blog, I am going to type a little bit more. Although I

don't know what I want to say, I still want to type something here. Maybe I can talk

about my university life here, this is a good idea.

My university life:
School has just started and I am not really getting comfortable with it because my life is too busy. Everyday I need to go to school and then I need to do the homework, after that I need to study and last I need to sleep!
But I am really exciting because I am studying in university. This situation I have already imagined in my mind many times and now it comes true. you will not know how excited I am feeling.
But really, my life is too busy, at the end of this month, I am going to have the mid-term exam. I don't feel like it is a mid-term because class has just started!

ok, I just finish here and I will keep tying and will talk more about myself next time.
