Nice Club time

Finally, Thursday is coming and we have a basketball game with teacher during the club time which makes me very excited. When the bell rang, I went to change my clothes fleetly and up to sixth floor as soon as possible. Eventually, the game began and there were five teachers and five basketball team starters started to bit each other. At first court, teachers team kept getting the score, and it was so unbelievable because I didn't know most of teachers in P.A.S have good skill at playing basketball. Afterwards, the basketball team started to get the point, and our score started to get higher and higher, even over teachers team score. The most interesting thing in today's game was most of male teachers went to play the game, and I felt pleasure when I see some of them are playing. The game was very successful and I think everyone enjoy today's game very much. I heard Mr. Rick would be here today, however I didn't see him. Maybe he will be there on next game. I think the school need more this kind of activities in order to build a better relationship between teachers and students.

The wonderful game

Today, we were having a game with 光復. Everyone was excited about this game, because this is the first game in this semester and we got new basketball members in our team which means we have chance to bit them. Few minutes later, P.A.S score was in front of 光復's. The basketball team just kept shooting and the score kept increasing  which was great. After first court, we won a lot of points which was unbelievable. In the past, they usually got much higher score than us, in contrast, this time we got lots of score which is pretty higher than their. During the second court, our cooperation became decreasing, on the other hand, 光復 started to make their points. Eventually, we lost the game by lower two points only. In my opinion, even though we didn't win this game, we learn many things and had a good experience. Everyone knew what they should doing next after this game, and we can solve our disadvantages in order to play well next time. No matter which school coming next time, I bet we will win the game proudly.

The result of sleeping earlier

During those days, I started to sleep earlier in order to get more strength, and result of it was very effective. As my experience, I slept early at night, on tomorrow, my brain can think everything clearly and I can concentrate on each things. As the report states, people must to sleep during 11:00 PM to 3:00 PM which is the most important period for sleeping. Therefore, I decided to sleep at 10:00 in order to fall asleep before 11:00. However, I slept at 12:00 last night and I get tired easily on tomorrow which means the comparability is obviously states people who go to sleep earlier will have better strength than people who go to sleep late. Furthermore, I think the influence are not only on school work but also on sport activities. If people who have less strength, they will tend to tired easily and feel more weary after a day. Therefore, there are many disadvantages about sleeping late. For instance, you work extremely hard in order to remember vocabularies as many as possible, nevertheless you forgot most of them tomorrow because you slept pretty late last night and you can't even focus on your school works. Afterwards you have a nap during the class, but you still feel extraordinary tired at that day, which means you didn't learn anything in class or you only learned some of them. As we see, there are lots of harm of sleeping late, thus, why not sleep early and have regular life.

Expect for Wednesday and Thursday's game.

Now, I keep working hard and practicing for the game on Wednesday and Thursday. Sounds very tired that we have two games in the same week, but it makes whole the team excited as well. The certain things for sure that our basketball team know what they are doing and get less confused when we playing full court. Let me explain the game on Thursday, basically we have to play with teachers during club time, but I don't know which teachers are coming for that. Anyway, that will be the most interesting game ever. However, the game on Wednesday is not as nice as Thursday one, because the school we are going to play with is just right next to us. From previous experience, I had only won that school once. Fortunately, the top guys in their team are already graduated, so I think the challenge will not be as tough as before. Therefore, we should seize this chance in order to get back our honor and try to win for Pacific American school~

Do people need to sleep

Now, sleep is a big problem for me, because I went to sleep late and woke up early which means my sleep is unsufficient.Recently, I can't concentrate in the class or in the worst case, I fall asleep. During this week, I was preparing for PSAT, and I slept late in order to study and remember vocabulary as many as I can. Conversely, I got the worse result. For instance, my memory getting badly, and it hard for me to remember new vocabulary, I even forgot some previous vocabulary. I am unable to focus on classes or homework assignments, after school, I feel I want to sleep but I have to go basketball practice. As this accumulation, I am easy to get tired and distracted. Even though I still confused if I should spend more time to study or not, the certain thing to know is, I should get more sleep. In this way, I think I can get better job on my work, therefore, I determined to sleep earlier in order to get concentrate and strength.

Bad days

Today isn't my day, I woke up in the morning and walked out from my dorm. Afterwards, someone was going to rebuke me about some dormitory rules and I sent to the office for some reasons. Recently, the guy kept rebuking me, because she thought I did something wrong. However, not only me but also others who did the wrong thing with me, and why only blame on me. Furthermore, if you are saying reasonably, I would accept that. Conversely, the messages which you got was wrong, and you even didn't give me chance to explain. In my opinion, if people want to blame others, they shouldn't be substantiated. Just because they heard someone's unreliable messages, and they went to rebuke the victims directly. Everything needs evidence such as if scientists want to state their hypothesis or result, they have to show the evidence or experience. In this way, they can convince people, in contrast if people saying non persuasively, no one is going to believe, not to mention, if you are going to tell the truth and someone even doesn't want to hear it, then that guy can keep being complacent on what you believe.

Make some different journal

Today's journal, I would like to make some difference. I want to use the word I learn today and try to make a good journal.   Heretic is an unorthodox behavior which need shun necessarily, in contrast, people should be pious to the religion which they believe. In previous time, people started to have maverick in order to ostracize others who were devout to their own religions. Iconoclast made each territories separate by wars, because they lacked probity and a scrupulous mind. In order to reduce infraction and profanity, people should be reverent and decorous to their religions and be respectful to others as well.               The purpose for doing this, because I have been studying or doing homework recently, therefore, I think my experience is not interesting enough to share. I determined to write some different style of my journal to improve my English or give some interesting challenge to myself.

Three week break

I expected I can have a good sleep during the three days break, conversely it was not. First day of my moon festival break, I went to my grandma's house, because I didn't see her for a long time, thus we decided to visit her. There was a long journey from my house to my grandma's home which took more than four hours to drive a car to there. Even though, I can sleep in the car, I felt uncomfortable if I stayed in the car more than an hours. Eventually, we arrived grandma's home, first thing to do is BBQ. BBQ is one of my favorite traditional in Taiwan, in addition, I always eat a lot and have lot of fun when I cooking the meats. We left my grandma's home very soon, because I still have many assignments to do, so we went back home as fast as possible. By the way, when we back home, it took more than four hours again. Therefore, I tired of staying in car for this long time, perhaps, we should take high speed rail next time which is more faster and convenient. Basically, the only happy thing in this weekend was BBQ. As for other times, I was doing my homework. Believe it or not, I think this year's moon festival is the most boring one for me.

The result of this week

Finally, the school day is end and three days break is coming. I think this is the most tired week in my new semester so far, because I slept less than six or five hours and kept pushing me to train and work out. I always tell myself, if you want to improve yourself, you have to work as hard as possible. For instance, when people go to build their muscle, muscle must be sore after working out which means the process is effective. In this way, when people feel tired or lack strength, they shouldn't stop because when this feeling happen means you had already improve yourself. The certain thing we know is we can take a short break and keep putting effort in order to accomplish goals. I think the biggest improvement this week is I have my strength back and I can play basketball as well as before, therefor I should keep working out or practicing in order to not lose my strength again.

Newsletter club

Club time is my favorite period in P.A.S, because you can choose the club you like most and we usually can learn many things which school didn't teach us at here. This year, I pick "community service" as my club, but I realized one hour per week is too little for my community service credit, so I determined to go to "Newsletter". However, at first day of club, I kicked out  by ms Pamela. She said my writings not strong enough so I am unable to join this club. In my opinion, "newsletter" is a good opportunity for student to improve their writing skills and learn responsibility for this project. The school newspaper is publish for students to read it not to society which means is unnecessary to be as specific as society newspaper. Students can use this chance to show everyone their skills in order to learn more experiences and improve themselves. Therefore, "newsletter" should open to the public, not only for the students who have good writing ability but also for the students who need to concentrate on their writing skills. I think the school newspaper will be more interesting if everyone has opportunity to join. Students will focus on who is the editor for this period of time which can get more students to read it. The destination of publishing newspaper is to get readers as many as possible. Conversely, if the newspaper is not interesting enough, then what is the point of editing newspaper and there's no one to read it.

The improvement of working out

After training at UMC, I feel I am more approach to my goal. Even though yesterday was my first day of working out, I can identify the difference between people who work out and people who do not work out. Actually, my muscle has overuse recently, because on each Monday and Wednesday, I have basketball practice after PE class which means I ran more than twenty laps or do many physical exercise at that day. Basically, I go to UMC on Tuesday or Thursday and have two muscle training classes on Monday and Wednesday. According to this schedule, my muscle probably will die someday. Conversely, I think this is good for me, because I have enough exercise everyday which is good for my health. The certain thing I learn that people have to keep examine how much have they improved in order to get self-confidence to move on next destinations. In my opinion, people should make goals and try to accomplish as hard as possible. In this way, people will improve themselves and be successful.

Work out

Today, I went to UMC to work out and play basketball. As a matter of fact, I think UMC is the best place for people to build their muscle. UMC is a fitness center in the science park in Hsinchu. It was built for the company UMC in  the science park, but it is open to the public. It costs 80 NT per entry and you can stay as long as you want. There are basketballs and pool tables, ping pong tables and other equipment available for lending. The weight room is filled with amazing body building machines that train various parts of the body. After working out, there are showers available for use and lockers for storing your things. It is a very good way to spend 80 NT.

Don't give up

Basketball is my favorite sport, and I am also in school's basketball since last semester. During last summer, I have been practicing on my basketball skills and working out in order to be the top player in the team. Even though I improved a lot during the summer time, I started to get lazy in the end of summer. Afterwards, the school team is begin to practice, however, I am so easy to get tired. In the worst case, I can't even play as well as before. After this experience, I learn if people want to be successful, they have to keep practicing. It's doesn't matter the challenge is simple or tough, we have to keep doing. People shouldn't get lazy when they think they have already achieved their goals. Otherwise, your ability will decrease or even get worse than before. Therefore, I tell myself "don't give up", and practice my basketball as hard as I can in order to improve my skill. One day, when I look past, I will see how much have I improved.

A complicate mood

In my opinion, we should help our friends from being trouble. Because, they always got your back and help you as possible as they can. However, this time is different, I didn't help my friend and even get him into a trouble. Everything was started from last week, one of my good friend drawn some ugly things on another student's stuff. I saw it, but I didn't tell him to stop. Today, teacher asked me, did I draw those stuffs or not. Of course, I would say no because I didn't do anything.  Afterwards, the case was getting worse. The victim's mother was calling school and complaining what have we done to her son's stuff. When I noticed the situation was wrong, I  told teacher exactly who did it. I felt so guilty and depress. Even though I should tell the true, I didn't protect or avoid my friend get into trouble at first time. Now, I hope this case won't affect the relationship between him and me, and we can still be good friends as well as past time.
