A Special Christmas

     Christmas is around the corner, so Yvonne came up with an interesting game called"the angel and the master". In the game, everyone will pick a master and be his or her angel. During this period of time, we have to try our utmost to treat our masters know who we are. Not until Christmas will we reveal our true identities to them.

     I think this game is a really good game, when it comes to getting know someone better.Since we are not allowed to decide who our masters are, we are given a chance to treat others well. By stepping forward to others is a first step toward cultivating a new friendship.
    

     Last but not least, I hope everyone have a nice Christmas and a happy new year.

The End of the World Today?

     According to the Mayan calendar, today should be the doomsday. However, I remembered there was an announcement declared in 2011 suggesting that it is just the cycle of the Mayan calendar. Like that of the Chinese calendar, which will make a cycle every sixty years. I believe in this kind of explanation. Despite my own point of view, it is still intriguing to think about what will you do if today is the end of the world. Will you spend more time with your beloved parents and friends? Will you do everything according to your will and forget about the consequences?Recently, a lot of people are talking about this subject. I'm quite curious about your answer, Wendy.
    
     In addition, there are students joking around saying they will definitely throw away all there homework and textbooks. However, I can't help wondering what if that day is not the end of the world. It may as well be the end of the world for them. I guess to them, maybe the end of the world is the a way of escaping from the monotonous life.

A Shocking News to Me

     Although the news had happened about two months ago, I cannot but give some thoughts to what lies behind this shocking and terrible news. The news was about a girl named Amanda Todd, who committed suicide due to the serious bullying incidents happened at school. Amanda Todd had always been the target of the bullying incidents at school. Some say that's because of her learning problems which cause her overall horrible academic performances. However, after watching a youtube video about Amanda Todd showing papers about how she was bullied, I think it's because she made some bad friends at school. Those friends took her to take some revealing photos and later on expose them on the Internet. In this situation, no matter where she transferred to, students from that school will still get access to her pictures.

     This incident bring to light the terrible consequences of bullying. I believe that bullying does require the school authorities to take part in dealing with the problems. In some cases, I think it is not the bully itself that cause the big problem but the ignorance of all the others. However, how to make other poeple stand out for the weak and still protect their safety at the same time is the important issue for the authorities to tackle.

My favorite TV show


     My favorite TV show is Glee, for it contains a lot of popular songs and intriguing plots. Unlike most TV shows that are being too much exaggerated, Glee shows deal with issues that may happen to all of us. Such as being racially discriminated or having trouble with body appearance, which are both problems most teenagers are faced with. It somehow educates us to hold a positive attitude toward the obstacles we are facing. In addition, it is also kind of like the musical TV shows. However, the show will mix up several popular songs to recreate them. Instead of playing those overplayed songs, the show gives its viewers a new insight into music.

     I have been watching Glee from season one to season three. Recently, they are producing season four. In addition to the plot, the actors and actresses are all pretty good-looking. I guess this point adds my interests to watch the show. Besides that, Glee is also the TV show Mona played in our class.
