Japan &Tokyo Disneyland



Recently, I find I like Japanese more than English. Maybe the reason is I have learned English for many years, so I think English has less charm than before. This semester, I choose Japanese as my second language. Perhaps because I have learned some Japanese before, I learn it faster than others. After touching Japan culture in person, I cannot help but falling in love with this country.
Last winter vacation, I went to Tokyo with my family. We went to the Disneyland,fuji...etc. Here I want to introduce you the resort.
Disneyland is devided to two main themes. One is "disneyland", and another is "disneysea". The former one is that we often hear about. It just like the amusement parks in Taiwan, but many things are better than Taiwan's, such as the scale and the entertainment facility...etc. In the disneyland, it can also seperate to many smaller themes, including fantasyland, adventureland, westernland, and so on. There are also some cartoon figures hold parade or stand still to take picture with visiters. Yet the resort is too large for you to play all the facilities in one day. You have two ways to stand in a line. The first one is like the way we almost do: one by one and wait in a line; and the second way is that you draw tickets from machines of each facilities, and maybe two hours later you can come back, and give the ticket to staffs directly, then you can play the facility immediatly. You don't need to waste time only standing in a line. Therefore,During the two hours you can play other facilities.
When you go the the souvenir stories, you will be astonished by those gorgeous candy, toys, cookies, and many many small objects. Because there are so many facilities in the Disneyland, if you have interest in it, you can click here: http://www.tokyodisneyresort.co.jp/tdl/english/7land/fantasy/atrc_map.html

Of course the theme of the Disneysea is about the the ocean. The facilities there is different from Disneyland. The facilities there have connection with sea and ocean. You can take the liner or play in water. Next time I go to Tokyo, I wanna choose the Disneysea.

Encounter with JAZZ


Today I went to the Jazz fastival with Clair Lin, and soon after we got out of the mortorcycle, we saw several dogs in the plaza.
they are one of them:




Actually they don't have blood relationship, but they resemble to each other.Don't they? They are adorable as well as obedient to the owner.




In the plaza, there are still other dogs. I guess it has become the dogs' heaven because many people like to walk dogs there. And of course,
dogs play with another dogs, and the owners chat with other owners. It seemed very harmony!



After that, we went to the market(there are various stands including foods and hand-made products) Along the road, I bought a mousepad of Jazz, I like it very much. Out of blue, After I went home and tore away the plastic bag, I found my mouse hardly use on it. It is so smoothy that the mouse pointer on the screen can not follow the speed of my optical mouse. I am a little dasapointed because the back side of the mousepad is more useful than the front side, but..... I cannot see the picture on the mousepad if I use the back one.

Ok, turn to the original subject. We also had our ears enjoyed in the small jazz concern. The jazz players displayed their excellent skill. I admired them very much. I cannot play music at all, but I can sing songs (even is not very well). Long ago I have had a small wish to learn violen. However, when I ask Mom about it, she just told that it was too late for me to learn from the beginning. Therefore still now I cannot play any music instrument, but at least I can appreciate musics. The world of music is too complicated for me. Although I am the kind of people who just seems to fool around the side of music world, I can savor the relaxing and joyful feeling that those great musicians give.

Power back & studies

Few weeks ago, I was elected as the executive of the "one act play". At first, I was shocked because I didn't think I will win the election. No doubt, after that, I ask myself to do the best to complete it. In fact, last semester I played one of the roles in the 2007 English drama, in the process of rehearsal, almost everyday I went to the dorm at about 9 or 10 o'clock , and it lasted whole 3 monthes!! Nevertheless, I didn't know the real reasons why I didn't feel tired (maybe sometimes I did> <), but most of time I enjoyed in it. Perhaps I liked to live this kind of full life or I liked the role I play(Mr. De pinna~~). In the drama, I am a scientist, and the dressing is very cool, if you want to see, you can click here http://www.wretch.cc/album/dflldrama. In the three monthes, I learned a lot of the performing skills and more currect pronounciation...etc. It did not waste of time, but worthy thing you cannot learn in books. Right, It is whorthy!
However, recently a thinking round my mind all the time. Why I always take so much time on these activities? I am a student, and the cheif aim is to improve my English. Every time I go home, my parents tell me do not make myself so busy everyday. I tell them I can deal with the activities and studies. A couple weeks ago, I just finished the integration camping, It still took me so long time to prepare the activities.I felt very very tired before, so do some other classmates. But now, it seems energy should be restored. I keep one maxin in my mind: With great power, comes great responsibility. Cheer up to myself!
It is the second years in the college, the studies is indeed heavier than before. Many teachers want us to read a plenty of books such as my history and novel guiding classes' . Frankly speaking, I have not followed the the page which teachers assigned yet. I think it is result of lacking time, but I know this is just an EXCUSE! Ok, I have made my mind to spend much more time studing and DISALLOWING any excuse. If someone see my MSN is online on this Saturday morning, just rush to my home and beat me directly.Ha ha~just kidding.
