About the special experience
This morning we have a discussion at the UC with many different countries' sturdemt. I feel so excited because I don't think that I have another's opportunity like this. It's truly amazing!Although I don't know every single word, but I have tried my best to do the note taking. The topic of our discussion is about the racism in whole world. I figured out that many countries got the problem of language. And we should try to say something,we can't afraid to be the voice. We should to find a way being a voice, act for people. Participating in our own nation is also important.

Joseph Joubert
"The aim of argument, discussion,debate should not be victory, but progress." means no matter the results of the argument is winning or not, the most important thing is that what you learned during the argument. For instance, when we join the race game with our classmates, we always practice together, and we are truly have fun. Thus, the victory is not the most important thing, we should focus on what we learn. During the game, we are not only improve our social skills but also built the cooperative relationship.

About the TOEFL test
I just heard my classmate talk about the TOEFL test on this morning. He said that the listening test need more notes-taking skills. Although we just learned the skills of Cornell notes-taking last week. I don't think that I can get good grades because after the notes-taking is summarized. I'm nervous now. I guess I should spend more time for studying.

About helping someone
Last Sunday, I went to Manhattan with my friends. We bought many stuffs on that day. After we finished the shopping, we went to the Penn station to take train to back home. At the moment, I saw an old woman carrying a heavy stuff when I was climbing the stairs. Then, I helped her to carry the stuff without thinking too much. She smiled appreciately at me. I felt so good to help her.

Organized or disorganized?
I'm very organized with my bedroom, especially my desk, but my time and my work are a little disorganized. I always have everything in certain place thus I can find everything easier. That's sounds good, but I always waste many time to be relax. I'm disorganized with my time and my work, every time I decide to do some work on my free time, I messed up . For instance, I planned to read a novel last week, but I read only three pages, and I watched the soap opera to instead it. How terrible it is! I think I have to plan a time schedule and try my best to follow it.

voc.ch14 (2.3)
I think the most significant invention in the last hundred years is smart phone. With the development and popularity of the smart phone, it brings as more convenient new life. Many people can't live without it. The most fundamental person in my life is my sister. She always accompany with me. No matter I was happy or sad, we always share our emotion with each other. We are not only sisters, but also the best friends.
voc.ch13 (2.3)
To imagine that i meet my favorite television stars, I think I won't do anything. Maybe just take some pictures. Because I am too shy to ask he/she give me a hug. When I ride on the subway, I always put my bag next to me, but I'll look around if someone want to have a seat. I think it depends on how many people on the subway. If there have many people on the subway, and it must be rude to put bag next to your seat.
