Finally, after brainstorm, after difficulties, and after challenge... it is a perfect moment for me... because I can enjoy my time and do whatever I like to do after school... there's no limitation of homework recently... people do not have to worry about which test you are going to study for tomorrow... or concern about how late you are going to sleep... Anyway... At this moment... I feel relax... but I know this moment won't maintain too long until the new year break is end... I can consider this final test is one of war during my high school life... I want to control the whole situation in this war... however... I think I didn't make that on the war I just finished... therefore, I think I will need to put more effort, more concentration... less distraction... less laziness... I know I already claimed this kind of stuff many times... As this point, I can tell I still have motivation and energy to complete my goals... however, I just need to put some insistence. Ignorance for someone... I guess... if you always concern too much thing or care your situation a lot, then you will lose the opportunity to achieve the things you want to seize... One year has already passed... next year... I am going to look at myself in the same mirror... and I will ask myself... how much have I improved.

The great moment after final
finally, after brainstorm, after difficulties, and after challenge... it is a perfect moment for me... because I can enjoy my time and do whatever I like to do after school... there's no limitation of homework recently... people do not have to worry about which test you are going to study for tomorrow... or concern about how late you are going to sleep... Anyway... At this moment... I feel relax... but I know this moment won't maintain too long until the new year break is end... I can consider this final test is one of war during my high school life... I want to control the whole situation in this war... however... I think I didn't make that on the war I just finished... therefore, I think I will need to put more effort, more concentration... less distraction... less laziness... I know I already claimed this kind of stuff many times... As this point, I can tell I still have motivation and energy to complete my goals... however, I just need to put some insistence.

So... Finally, final exams mostly done... I meant most of important ones are finished safely... Yesterday I slept at 3, but it was not as late as the day before yesterday. I was dying at the first period of class... so I decided to took a nap in order to save my vigor for my succeeding test... When I woke up, it was ten minutes before the quiz started... however, I felt even more exhausted... So... I determined to set up a perfect schedule in order to prevent this happening again... Procrastination is like a drug, sometimes, you can't abstain... Maybe this is not a good example, let me think... well... the less procrastination you have now, the more successful you might be. Um... what else? seems Mr. Dahl probably have no time to read our journal... I think I just end at this point... just kidding... No matter he is going to read it or not... I will take my responsibility to finish this... this work is not doing for anyone, it is doing for myself... Not only this one, but also others... Seriously, my first goal... separate my work into everyday instead of procrastinating until the last minute... Happily, the new year break is approaching, which means I have time to alleviate my pressure and refresh myself :)

Believe it or not
I hope Mr. Dahl is not going to figure out how many journals did I miss... If he finds it out eventually, I have no qualification to fight against anything, as the result of he already explained everything about the rules of journey... So I should know this result is going to happen... nothing need to complain. After the conversation with Mr. Dahl, I have learned couple things... well... he might not check our journal everyday... I meant really look at it in detail... I also realize... people with different mind or thought can make various decisions... sometimes, it might make you become more powerful, on the other hand, it also can tend you become weaker. "Things are changing"... and I think that use "present progressive" is perfectly fit for this one. Not only you are changing, everyone else is changing as well... Have you ever had future dream? Be more specific, sometimes, you feel you have seen this sight before, but your memory is not really clear about it. At this point, I know this journal is meaningless, because I am not focusing on a certain topic or something. But I think this is the way that how you write a journal... this is not an assignment that you are going to hand it in or the quiz that you need to fully use your brain to solve the problems... feel comfortable by yourself... don't affect by anyone... that's the way it is. Nice cliche by the way.

In your life, you will have to face different barriers. And I will consider those barriers as two different categories. Outside barriers, which is cause from other people decisions or the things that you have no choices on it. Inside barriers, which is cause by yourself, therefore to make this decisions or not to make this decisions is all up to you, but you have to take responsibility on it. Paradoxically, both of barriers can fight against each other. For instance, if now you make a decision, then this decision is going to cause outside barrier which means someone's decisions might go against your decision afterwards. I use the word "barrier", because I think in our life, there are different difficulties cause from other people or yourself... and everything is all basic on making decisions. Sometimes, it's hard for me to make an appropriate decision, maybe I thinking too much or making too much redundancies on my considering... I agree the words that Ms. Alice has said before, you can't make everyone feel happy. The most interesting thing in our life is we can keep overcoming hardships to improve ourselves. Be more specific, we can learn different lessons after various difficulties... well it doesn't have to be hard mission, even the easy task can enlighten yourself. If my calculation is correct, I still have two years before I go to college. Anything is possible to happen during this period, no matter they are bad or good. I don't want my life only have good things happen... if people's who always live with good things, then they probably will lose their alertness, and lack the motivation of living...

Ya Final week is coming:)
As everyone knows, our final exams are approaching... so I wonder how much did other people prepare and how much did I prepare? Am I on the way to reach my goals? or I am stopping at the same spot... which means I am not improving at all? Few things I want to point out in today's journal... first... seems I need to be more careful on Mr.Dahl's vocabulary quiz.... otherwise it will cost lots of point of my grade, which is hurt.... using one vocabulary to make a perfect sentence is not as easy as I thought.... I hope I have enough participate point that can increase my grade to my standard... well... i know people if who want to talk about standard of their grade... they have to be qualified first... which means they have to put effort on their work before they complain about their grade... second.... I should study regularly in order to avoid procrastination... I don't want to put most of work at once to finish.... tiredness, stress, pressure, laziness, unhappiness... negative effects are coming up because of procrastination... well... sometimes... find a shortcut is good... but sometimes you really have to follow the steps such as Adopted Hold Reader... the thing you need to do in order to maintain a good grade is you have to read every details of the story first... otherwise... next time if you want to re-read... it almost impossible... because you have no idea what the story is talking about ... in this case you lose your interests and motivations on it. um... it seems I have a lots of article need to read for my English class... and it's also for passing my final exam...

ESL students.
Apparently, I didn't type blog yesterday... and the thing is I don't even know how many blogs did I miss... I hope they didn't get over three times... otherwise I won't have enough PR point to exalt my final grade for English... Seriously... it's a big jump from B+ to A+.... in order to make the jump... I have to get the points for my final exam... which means... it will be my last chance to increase my grade... well... some people said college don't usually care about your grade in ESL... I will say... I disagree with the people who said that.... ESL is the process of improving your English... students in this system hand in their homework on time, they follow the steps instead of finding short cut... they are improving because they don't feel satisfied or arrogant by themselves... there's always a motivation for them to go higher... So, in this case... I will tell people who despise ESL students because they are in Mainstream that they are wrong..... Maybe their English abilities are better than ESL students now... but... after few months or one year... I guarantee you will feel regretful that you spend most of your time on mocking ESL students, instead of being concentrated on what you should do... We don't really care about what other people's thought... because English is not our first language... and we spent less time on practicing English than other people... so we understand that we should work harder than anyone... not just stop moving on and caring about what do other people think... one day... I believe, if we keep the same speed on practicing our English... our result will be more incredible and we will feel more honorable than other people.
