Halloween
Today was Halloween, for celebrated this holiday; we had an activity in our company. Every child had to make up like a monster. Then we had to sing a chant loudly and had a parade around the cram school. First stop, we arrived a convenient store; every child had to sang out loud the chant, and the shopkeeper gave them some candies and a cup of drink. Second stop, we got to clinic, sang the chant, and got the candies from the nurse. Last stop, we went to a restaurant, and did the same thing. Then we went back to the school. Children were felt happy about parade because this was their first time to do that. They felt quite interesting and exciting. During the whole activity, I took a lot of pictures about teachers and students. These pictures are quite funny but scary. I think this is an unforgettable experience for everyone.

After felt surprise, I felt happy for her because she already found her Mr. Right in her life. Therefore, when I got to Taipei and saw my cousin. She looked so beautiful and happy. When my other sisters and I went into her room, we talked a lot about our recently life because we have not met each others for a couple years. That’s why we talked a lot for long time. After lunch, we had to go home because we have to back to Kaohsuing. Therefore, we needed to leave early. But I still felt happy to saw my cousin, and I hope she can live happily with her husband.

Funny
Today, when I got to the train station, my father told me a funny thing. He said “my mother and my sisters are missing for couple hours, and my sisters didn’t go to school. Therefore, my sister’s teacher called my father to ask what happened to my sister, why she didn’t go to school. Then, my father began nervous and asked my kin to help to found them. Finally, my father found out my mother took my sisters to see the doctor, but they didn’t make a phone call to the teacher, so they made a funny thing.”
After I heard the story, I laugh loudly. I never heard such a funny thing just because they went to see the doctor and didn’t make a phone call. That made all of a kin very nervous to find them. When my sister heard that, she just felt embarrassed about that, and she felt they just like criminals to chase by our kin. That is really funny.

relationship
I have a part-time job in a cram school now. I have a class with two 12 years old girl. The relationship between them and me more like friends than a teacher and students. I feel happy about the relationship between us because I don’t want to let my students feel I am a person who is hard to talk to. Therefore, I like to join their talking sometimes. They will ask me how to deal the relationship with their classmates. If they get something problems, they will ask me how to solve it. Now, I really enjoy this kind of relationship between us. I hope I can have same kind of relationship with other kids.

custom
I have a part-time job in a breakfast store. Last Sunday, when I went to work, one of my colleagues told me about some Chinese customs. For example, sometimes we can’t say four in Taiwanese in some occasions. That is an unlucky number. Therefore, one hundred and forty dollars in Taiwanese is not suitable in breakfast. Because the sound of one hundred and forty dollars is not good. So my colleague hopes me can change the way what I say. I know there are a lot of customs in Chinese. That I might be attention what kind of customs not allows saying in some occasions. Otherwise, sometimes saying wrong words may let others feel uncomfortable.
Funny interpretation
Last Wednesday, my colleague showed me an interesting article on a newspaper. I laugh loudly after I read it. It talked about some wrong interpretations in some conferences. These wrong interpretations make audience laughing, but these are serious mistakes for an interpreter. Because wrong interpretation will give wrong message for audiences. Sometimes that might caused audiences feel uncomfortable, and make speaker feel embarrassing. After I read the article I know if I want to be a good interpreter, I should build good ability in interpretation and know the cultures in different countries. And do some homework before I interpret a conference. That will make such a funny jokes in the conferences.

Ideas
Last Monday, I met one of the foreign teachers who teach English in my workplace. He asked me what kind of game I usually let my students play. I said hammer game or sticky ball. He said the children feel bored about the old games, so he asked” Do you have any good idea for new games?” I said no, because my children all enjoy the game that I gave to. Therefore, I didn’t have to change my idea too often.
Being a teacher always need to have new ideas for lessons to make sure children won’t feel boring and lost the interesting in learning English. Thus, teacher needs to create a lot of ideas to keep their attention. Actually, it is a hard work, because sometimes you will out of ideas. Therefore, I think reading some books is a good way for me to brainstorming some new ideas.

Winter coming
I feel much cold these days. It means winter is coming. Every time when winter comes, I hope it can leave as soon as possible. Actually, I don’t like winter very much, because I hate the cold day. Even though, it is not really cold in winter in Taiwan. I still wear a lot of clothes to keep myself warm. But sometimes it is useless, because my hands and feet are still freezing. That is why I don’t like winter very much. I hope it cans warm like spring in four seasons, but I know it is impossible. Therefore, I just do my best to keep my self warm in winter, and don’t catch a cold.

Pictures
Today, I classified all the pictures about summer camp. In this summer, I worked in a summer camp, and I took a lot of pictures about their daily life in the camp. Thus, my boss wanted me to classified pictures and gives them to their parents to keep it. When I arranged these pictures make me thought about summer camp’s life. It was so great. When they had a performance in the end of summer camp, they still did a good job. All I can that every child is so adorable and so sweet. I really missed them. In addition, I hope I can have the same kind of class in next summer. I think I will enjoy the life in summer camp.

Train delay
I took train form Kaohsiung station back to Tainan on last Sunday night. When I got to the train station, I heard the broadcast said, because of the typhoon, the cable between Lu-Zhu and Da-Hu broken. Therefore, the time of train move off was not sure. Suddenly, I though “my goodness, when I back to Tainan will too late.” Then I felt very angry and I though why train delay so frequently. I hope this kind of situation can be change. Because no one likes to wait for so long, and hope can get the destination quickly, therefore every one hope train can on time. Don’t delay again.

The difference between my students and other students
Every time I should go to work by train. Today when I went to work, I got on the train. I saw a lot of students in the railway carriage. They are cram school students. I thought they have outside activities, so they had to take train. There was a thing makes me very surprise that is they all spoke English, and they didn’t feel embarrassing and didn’t afraid of said in wrong way. I thought they are so brave that they speak out loud.
How about my students? My students are afraid of speak loud because they afraid of speak wrong. That is a big different between my students and other students. I hope they learn English and they can use it in daily life. Even though they will make some mistakes, but they can learn a lot from these mistakes. Therefore, they can learn English well.

Linguistics class
Today was the first time we use the linguistics textbook. This is the new class for me, for I learn only how to use the skills in the past. Therefore, it is the first time I learn theoretical English. It is a quite difficult lesson for me. Because I know the meaning of every word, but when it combines into a sentence, I think I can’t understand it. Then, I get lost. I begin to ask my friends which part does teacher talks about in the textbook.
After the class, I think I should spend more time on this class. Otherwise, I will fail in the end of semester. I don’t want to take the same course in the future. So I will try to do the best in the course.
