The thing I wanted to see most when I came to the United States was to see snow. My goal was accomplished on Thursday, December 18th, during my winter break.
It was 12 o’clock and I was still sleeping, lying down on my warm bed. I didn’t want to get up so early at that time. Looking outside, I saw snow. I jumped out of my bed instantly and tried to make sure that I wasn’t dreaming. When I knew that it was really snowing, I went to my bathroom and washed my face. My two cousins and I went outside and we began to have a snowball fight. We also tried to make a snowman, and snow angels. It was really fun. However, it was so cold that I couldn’t even imagine it being any colder. After touching the snow, my hands were frozen and I started to get a runny nose. Thirty minutes later, we started feeling tired and we stopped playing.
I’ve been waiting to see snow for a while. And now that I had actually experienced snow, I can’t wait for it to snow again!
When I was a child, my mom used to tell me about her childhood, her dream, her passion and how she was living, how hard it was that my mom needed to try to get a job although she was so young at that time.
My mom’s childhood was not easy. My grandparents were very impoverished and had a hard time to keep a family. They had been working so hard to have enough money to take care of all 10 people in the family. My mom knew that the only one thing to help her and her family to get out of this poverty was be a good student and then she could get a good salary. Then, she was not only a top student in her class but also a hard worker. Although my grandfather really loved her and he didn’t want her to work or do anything except her study, my mom still wanted to help him. Therefore, she was hired to work as a dishwasher or clothing-washer. After school, she also biked a long distance to sell my grandmother’s cakes.
My grandparents didn’t have enough money to buy food for the family. Therefore, instead of having three meals a day, they had only one and a snack, such as a cheap vegetable.
No matter how tough the life was, my mom was still the best student in her school and the only one in the family who could graduate. Furthermore, she even could go forward to the University.
In contrast, I was born when our family had already become easier and I do not have to work hard or do anything to earn money except studying and being a obedient girl. I have three meals a day, further, I can have any cookies or candy that I want. But beside that, I need to study very hard as my mom did. That’s why I’m here, in America. I'm studying for my mom’s encouragement, for myself and for my future. As well as, I need to take responsibilities for my life.
In conclusion, my childhood was much better than my mom’s childhood. On the other hand, I don’t see it as my pride, I see it as the lesson of life that my mom wants me to know, and from that I can do everything better than her.
This afternoon, about 3pm, my friends and I were going on the escalator to the 1st floor of the Mall. Suddenly, we all heard 1 big bang which was 1st shot, actually we thought that something fell down...and then it was 2nd shot, everybody had sat down and covered their heads. After that, someone was sreaming and everybody started running... I couldn't understand what happened and my friend who was a boy started to run first (yah, he was so nice!!! =___=) ..... he ran down the escalator although it was going up, my friend and I ran down the escalator after the boy and we stopped nearby the store and watched what was going on....and I saw two security guard yelled and pointed at somebody, I followed his finger on the rail and I saw someone was running.......Instantly, everybody scattered and screamed so we ran out after them......Outside, there was a panic station, while some people were calling, the others were running and crying in panic, everything seemed so crazy.....there is somebody was stucked on the balcony so they jumped to the ground.....later, we decided to leave the mall and go to watch the movie in downtown......=____=
Woa, the 1st time in America and have that kind of experience, although it's dangerous but I can proud that I has become a witness and I saw an incident in America that I had thought it just could be seen in the movie lol................It's such an unforgettable experience that I will never ever forget!!! :D
This is a film was remade in 2005 which was based on the old film. I think everybody has watched this movie so I will summary just a little about it!! ^__^
Hm...this film was about a destitute director who had has a lot of ambition and he dreamed that he will become a rich and famous director in the world! That day was coming..when he had a screenplay by cheating the famous poet. And since he saw a girl who is an unknow actress in a circus and he invited her to come with him to the island where she would become a main character of his movie. Because of that and also she has been admired that poet so she agreed his invitation. Ever since, everything has just begun. They has been trapped by a lot of stranged things like : the anthropophagous tribe, the dinosaurs, the huge insects...and finally is KING KONG which is the huge Gorilla and it's kind of carnivorous. But after that, that girl has been fallen in love with KingKong and when Kingkong had arrested and brought to New York city. Right there, he had been shot by a lot of jet flighters........and in the end...he died....
I was sobbing a lots when I saw this movie!! Until seeing the second time, I still could cry and after that I couldn't stop thinking about the movie. I hate that girl and the poet, especially is that poet, because of him, that girl couldn't go with Kingkong.....T___T In this movie, I just like Kingkong, although he is a animal, not a human, but I still see that he's so handsome and gentle, he protected her against the dinosaurs..Furthermore, when I looked at his eyes, I could see somewhere in his heart, there was a humanity. If I were that girl, I would love him instead of loving the poet and I will follow him and go back to the island and live there with him forever and ever!!!!!

From this video, we can know that women's hands have 40% more species of bacteria than men's hand and the possible reason is because of the sweat on men's hands can be more exsiccated than women's hands. Furthermore, the researchers found out that there is one hand has over 100 bacteria than we thought and there are 13% of bacteria in common to all people's hands, it means a lot of variety of bacteria in our world and even our hands are the same body but they still have diffent types of bacteria on one hand and the other.
I was very suprised when I saw this video. Because right now, maybe on my hands, there are a lot of bacteria, it makes me feel scare of my hands so I think, the best way is, sometimes, wash our hands 3 times, in the morning, afternoon and evening.....=___=
Obama, who is the 44th president of the United States had a speech in Chicago on Nov 4th 2008. In his speech, he showed that no matter that you are in any sections and classes like young or old, rich or poor, black or white, disable or not disable, we are and always be the United States of America. In his speech he said that he will bring a change to America. By the way, he had been talking about Mc.Cain such as Mc.Cain fought harder and longer in this campaign and he has sacrified for America and he had called Mc.Cain was a brave and selfless leader that he love to work with Mc.Cain. After that, Obama had promised that he will make the goverment of people, by the people and for the people. Also, he had promised that he will give hope to people, listen to people - help them and he will do everything that we appeal to him.
I was so impressed by Obama, he inspired me and made me feel very good in the future of the USA. Also, he made me change my mind about the election day, how the election day is important..... I think and I hope that he can do what he said, and how he will change not only The United States but also our world!!!
