Jouranl 9

The fall term will finish on Dec. 24. Actually, I will finish my all exam on Dec.17 and go back to China on Dec.23. It is a pity that I cannot spend my winter vocation here, especially the Christmas, even though the awful coldness. However, it can still be warm to enjoy the time with my family and Chinese friends. In this winter break, I have many things to do. Firstly, I need to American embassy to get my F1 visa. Then I am going to go home. I miss my family and want to spend more time with them. At the same time, I need to go shopping. I should prepare for the next year in America. Of course, America has sufficient goods but they do not suit me. I also plan to eat as more as possible. We make a conclusion that Chinese food is the most delicious in the world. I will eat what I like. Finally, getting a driver license is optional choice. It depends on my time. I will come back on Jan11. Therefore, it will be a short winter break.
Since there are two holds in my record, I cannot choose classes now. I must attend the orientation at the spring term and then I can choose classes. Yesterday I got my Minnesota English Battery test grade. I have passed the test, so I do not need to take ESL course any more. I can focus on my major and liberal classes. Given I want to transfer into another college, I will not choose professional course. Maybe psychology, physics and some writing classes are my best choice. I am also excited about ACCT 3001. No matter whether I can transfer successfully, it is my necessary class. I think five classes could be better so I need to think about it carefully. I have not decided which one should be chose. I consider part-time job, so I cannot take more classes than five. It is a challenge for me. Nevertheless, I believe I can because if I can graduate early I can release my family's pressure. I have confidence. I come. I conquer.
I am looking forward the next semester.

How to escape cooking

WAL-MART

We have the Wal-Mart in our hometown. However, I'm not quite like this place even though it may offer the lowest price of goods, the quality of those goods are not high as well. I have never been Wal-Mart anymore since I bought some meatballs with pig hair in them. That is disgusting!
The market I prefer to shop usually is called the Silver Plaza which has an underground super market. The Silver could be the popular market and it has amount of branch around the province. The price gap of goods between these two super market is not large, in order to obtain a higher quality, more the citizens choose the local market. Another reason of the Silver can stand a competition is that it offer gift cards. There is a naturally rule people following nowadays that they used to send gift cards as present instead of real present. The trend leads more and more people tend to consume in the Silver because they owns amount of gift cards.
The target here is similar with the Silver. I am wondering why there are no vegetables in normal Target, so that I have to shop in the Super Target. It may lose numbers of client for this institution.

Chicago ---1

Chicago, as the second largest city in America, carrys too many dreams. Just as what happens in Chicago, the famous movie. In my first Thanksgiving holiday, I went to the dream city to take in the charm of Chicago.
It was 6:00 am but we had already waken up and set off to the station. The long travel was really boring. The best way to kill the time maybe is sleeping and since we got up so early all of us were tired. The quiet coach marched to Chicago. Until about 3 pm we arrived in the destination. It didn't mean the trip was finished. We walked 40-50 minutes to go to the hotel with luggage. As soon as we put down the luggage, we visited the famous city. It proved that the nickname "Windy City" is true. We walked on Michigan Ave. Due to the Thanksgiving, nearly all shops closed. But the scenery was beautiful. And I saw the Water Tower. It was very familiar for me because I saw it at Wilson Library. The Chicago Water Tower locates at the Michigam Aveneue along the shopping district. The Water Tower serves as one of the Chicago Office of Tourism's Official Visitor's Centers. It is the second-oldest water tower in the United States. The tower, built in 1869, is 154 feet tall. The tower gained prominence after the great Chicago fire of 1871. It was the only building in the burned zone to survive, and is the only one of the surviving structures still standing. In the years since the fire, the tower has become a symbol of old Chicago and of the city's recovery from the fire. We looked for a place to eat dinner. Finally, we eat at Mcdonald. The Mcdonald was so big. We were the poor people who can't eat Thanksgiving dinner at Thanksgiving eve. On our way to hotel, there were many people making tents to prepare for the shopping on the nest day

timberwolves

On Nov. 4th, I watched the first live NBA match in Target Center. Even though I had watched many NBA games on TV in China, I still felt excited. Two month ago, we came to Target Center to see Obama, now we came again.
It was Minnesota Timberwolves v. Celtics. Lots of fans swept into the center because their previous "King of wolves" , Kevin Garnett ,would appear in the match. We didn't know much about Timberwolves without Garnett. We chose this match because the Celtics was very good. It owned many famous stars, like Garnett, Ray Allen, Paul Pierce. It win the champion many times. But Garnett did not performance well. Actually, I wander how many scores he got. 2 or 4? Sometimes, we felt he was there to show he was cool. He stood at the center of the match at the break. He did nothing, just stood there. It seemed that he was saying"Hi, take photos". Of course, people could not lost this chance and they took a lot. Since our seats were a little far, it was not very clearly.
The atmosphere was very good. Everyone was enthusiastic. On the break time, there was many activities. So it seemed the time past quickly. Usually, I felt a match was long when I saw it on TV. I'm so happy I can experience special things in America.

Duluth 2

After lunch, we departed for Gooseberry Falls State Park. Gooseberry Falls is the gateway to the North Shore. It is known for its spectacular waterfalls, river gorge, Lake Superior shoreline, Civilian Conservation Corps log and stone structures, and north woods wildlife. Hike through a forest of evergreens, aspen, and birch and visit the Joseph N. Alexander Visitor Center where you can find park information,interrpretive displays, a park video, Nature Store, and more. We visited the visitor center and then we went hiking. At first, it was fun. We enjoyed the scenery. The sun was happy too so it gave us enough sunshine. Soon we felt hot. We chose ways that few people went. As a result, we went the wrong way and lost in the forest. We were worried just because we only had half hour but the way was so long. At first, we walked fast then ran. Fortunately, we got the destination on time. We were so tired. We left the park, went to Duluth. Duluth is very beautiful, especially the lighthouses. It looked like a picture. The big lake was so big that I felt it seemed sea. So many birds were flying there and people fed them friendly. We hang around to find a place to eat. We were exhausted but nothing could stop us playing. The small party was fun. We played games and there were some punishments-the loser had to drink wine. My roommate was unlucky that she drank a lot. Actually these boys did this on purpose.


It's hard to get up the next day. We packed up, then went to have breakfast. The weather was bad, it was ruining. During the breakfast, the leader told us that we need not to go outside to see sled dogs. They would come here. In this case, we waited and waited. Finally, they came with a sled dog that it had already 14 years. It meant the dog was old. They taught us something about the sled dogs and the history about the Cloquet Forestry Center. We departed at 12pm. We drove to a restaurant for lunch. It was a buffet lunch which offered traditional thanksgiving food, like turkey, tomato, salad. We ate full and happily. With a long trip, we came back home.
This is a memorable trip. I appreciate the scenery and nice people. I will remember it forever.

DULUTH

Last weekend, we had a trip to Duluth. It's memorable. With this trip, I have a knowledge of Duluth.
We set off by bus at 5pm on Friday afternoon. We were all excited because this is our first trip in U.S. After about one hour ride, we had a rest and had our dinner in Forest Lake, MN. There was several restaurants in the area to choose from. Finally, I and my other four friends chose KFC. KFC is very popular in China and all of us like to eat KFC. But we had not eaten one since we came to U.S. We had a happy dinner with satisfaction. Then we started off again to the destination. We live at Cloquet Forestry Center, the principal forestry field station of the University of Minnesota. It serves as a regional and national center for instructional, research, and outreach programs for the natural resources community. We stayed in double occupancy dorm-style rooms with private bath in a beautiful northwoods setting. When we put our luggage into right place, we played the King game at boys'. We had a lot of fun because we must do something that was stupid and trick, like a boy went to a girl's room and said loudly"xxx, I love you."
Next day was a sunshine day. We got up and had breakfast buffet. The breakfast was really good. It offered cakes, sausage, eggs, fruit and mile and so on. We went to the Split Rock Lighthouse which was located at 40 miles north in Duluth. It was a wonderful lighthouse built around 1910. The Visitor Center has spectacular views of the big lake, exhibits featuring artifacts and information on the history of the light station, the history of the North Shore, and facts about Lake Superior shipping, and a Museum Store. I learnt that Split Rock Lighthouse is one of the most recognized and photographer icons in the state. In the early years of the 20th century, iron ore shipments on Lake Superior doubled and redoubled. Shipwrecks on Lake Superior's North Shore in 1905 November prompted this rugged landmark's construction. Completed by the U.S. Lighthouse Service in 1910, Split Rock Light Station was soon one of Minnesota's best known landmarks. Restored to its 1920s appearance, the lighthouse offers a glimpse of lighthouse life in this remote and spectacular setting. We took lots of photos there. Oh,they were so beautiful.

Breakfast in America

A full American breakfast consists of bacon, eggs, hash browns or home fries, toast or some other bread, fruit or juice, and coffee. It is often referred to as a "country breakfast" in many areas of the Midwestern United States. The terms "fry" and "full breakfast" are not generally used in North America, though hotels generally distinguish between a light "continental breakfast" and a hot, cooked breakfast.

In the Southern United States the meal is typically known as a "big breakfast" or "Sunday breakfast" and usually contains some combination of eggs, grits, toast or biscuits with white gravy, hash browns, potato pancakes or "breakfast potatoes", bacon, sausage, ham or steak, other meats such as scrapple or liver pudding, pancakes, cinnamon rolls or similar sweet pastries, all served with coffee and juice (usually orange or grapefruit).

（FROM WILIPEDIA）

Breakfast in China and America have several things in common. First of all, they are both various. People have many choices. For example, American can choose bacon, sausage, ham and steak. They can drink coffee, milk, juice and so on. Similarly, we have many kinds of food. When it comes to food which is made with flour, we have noodles, steamed bread, fired stick and bun. A second way in which these two kinds of breakfast are similar is that they both have a tendency to fast. With the accelerating pace of life, especially in big cities, more and more people don't have enough time to enjoy their breakfast. They must eat fast and full. In this case, western breakfast is very popular in China.
Even though American and Chinese breakfast have many common things, they are strikingly different in many ways. For example, Chinese breakfast often consists of rice and steamed bread. In China, we usually eat porridge. However, as far as I know, the American like to drink coffee, milk or some fruit juice in the breakfast. Another difference is American prefer to eat some simple food, like bread,eggs, ham or buy Binger King's hamburgers in the morning. In contrast, Chinese people like to eat their own breakfast at home and it is usually complex. People spend many time preparing breakfast. Then, American breakfast has more nutrition and calorie. For instance, the bacon, sausage, ham and steak have high protein and fat. Whereas, sometimes Chinese breakfast lack nutrition because people like to eat salted vegetable which has little nutrition. And we need to eat a lot, or we'll be hungry before lunch. Lastly, we don't have a habit of reading newspapers when they eat breakfast unlike American usually do it.

Breakfast in China

According to a survey, the Chinese breakfast has different ways:
1.Traditional: steamed bread,porridge,fried bread stick, bun, salted wegetable
2.Fast food: milk and eggs or bread
3.western-style: sandwich and a cup of coffee, or a hamburg and a milky tea

The habit of eating in China is people usually dat food which is warm.

Something about Jinan--the city I studyed in China

Some good place to visit in Jinan.As known as a sping city,Jinan has more than seventy-two springs scattering over the city.There will full of tourists at the travelling season .The winter here is too cold and the summer is too hot so the best time to visit is on spring and autumn. You must be surprised to see so much mouths of spring gathering a lake,and it is common sight in Jinan.
I have moved in Jinan for nearly seven years. I have got used and enjoyed the life here just as a local citizen. It is a middle-size inland city with a large population.It is really crowd when you step out your home to the street. But it is not that bad to live in such a bustling city.You will meet different people in every second by chance. It is kind of exciting when you just seating on the side of road and watching the people passing by in the different appearance and mood.
One of an advantage of living in this city is its convenient lifestyle.You are able to buy what you want without driving a long distance.And a lot awesome restaurants are located all over the city,every style in Chinese food, Tai food, western style and so on as much as you can imagine.With lower price level than other big cities,life seems happy when you can afford most of the staff you can see in a mall or market.And a numbers of independent store makes shopping more fun.The happiness index is higher among most of the cities around China.
Beijing has more historic spot and interest places than here, Shanghai is more prosperous and busting than here, Hangzhou is more beautiful hen here, Xi'an is richer in culture,however, every time I leave out this imperfect city,I can't stop missing her,and really really missing her so much.

How I Spent On Halloween Day

My Halloween Day began on Friday afternoon, October 30. Our American friend Michell took us to buy Halloween's customs because we would go to his uncle's party at night. Michell told us that the shop may be crowded because many people would buy customs this afternoon. When we were there, I found it was true. There was so many people looking around and waiting for their customs. Customs, masks,balloons and so on. We spent a lot of time looking for customs. I just bought a bunny rabbit head because I thought the customs were a little expensive and I didn't think it worth. While my friends buy customs. Then we drove to the party. Michell's uncle, Mark, lives at Wisconsin. In particular, he lives at forest. When we got there, we found it had special circumstance with Halloween--forest, punkin, lights. There were many people and all of them were Michell's family members. They welcomed us to come here and had prepared for beers, cakes and candys. We talked, played games, and danced. Of course, we had a lot of fun. Everyone enjoyed this party and satisfied. Mark showed us his house. It was beautiful and huge. He told us that he was a teacher at a high school and was the principle director for 5 years. He was a good man who were good at billiard. Michell's mother was beautiful and kind. She offered the food and helped us to take photos.

However, on the real Haloween, I just stayed at home,doing homework. And I went out to go shopping with my roommate. Generally I satisfied with this holiday.It's really impressed

Stay or leave?

Since I began to make plan to study at U of M, a thing always confuse me. Should I stay here to finish my undergraduate or return to China after this semester and try to study graduate in England.
Personally speaking, I really want to do further study at UK. There are many reasons. First of all, UK is my favourite country. It has a long history, beautiful scenery, unique architecture. As the biggest financial market, it has the most perfect financial system, which attracts me. After all, I major in finance in China, it is the best choice to research finance unceasingly. Then, I just need one and a half years to finish course. It reduces time, costs. For a middle class in China, it is a huge expend anyway. I really want to lease my parents' pressure. Last but not least, my cousin works in London. It is easier for me to live there and my family also set their mind at rest.
However, I can't guarantee I can apply a university as good as U of M. U of M is a university having a high reputation in USA. It is a tremendous opportunity for me. It ranks at top 50 in the world. Despite it has many disadvantages compared with studying in UK, the reason is most important.
I have applied becoming a undergraduate but I'm still hesitated. It is a rather difficult choice.

Rachel comes on the stage with great dramatic——A runaway bride at the beginning of the show. She was supposed to marry a dentist, but she run away after she discovered the fact she loved the wedding gifts more than her would-be husband. After that, she began her unfinished journey toward independence and adulthood. I like Rachel most, not only Jennifer Aniston is the most beautiful girl in this show, but also her characteristics. Sometimes she is a funny cheerleader, making many joys. Many boys like her, included Ross, Joey and Gather. During this show, she fell in love with Brat Pete and got married. Unfortunately, they divorced.

Monica is the essence of rules and neatness, a high school outcast who made good, a warm-hearted friend with a steady soul and a frustrated daughter whose parents always give priority to her brother Ross. Merely for one reason, people love Monica forever: she would never let people go hungry. She is unique because cleaning is absolute on the top of the list. No body can unclear at her home. She even has 17 kinds of towels. It is unbelievable. And she is a person who always want to win and follow the rules when she plays a game. So any game with Monica's participation would be no fun. Teenage Monica is not lucky with love. As a fat girl, she was always teased and left out in the cold. But after trimming down from high school fatty, she has many boyfriends, of course included with Chandler.

Phoebe's offbeat, eternally optimistic nature make her unique. Despite all adversity in her life, she still displays a pleasant upbeat personality. That's another reason why I like Phoebe: she can fight; she can stand up to anybody once she is confronted. From an out-of-key folk singer to a masseuse, she takes a runaway lifestyle and never fails to cheer me up with her witty remarks. She has a complicated background--her stepmother committed suicide; her stepfather went to jail; her twin sister, who she dislikes most, starred in blue movie under her name. She was Monica's es-roommate but moved to her grandmother's old apartment because Monica was a neat freak. "Semlly cat" sounds strange but nice. The most fantastic thing is she believes she can talk to the dead person, and she divined her death date to be October 15, 2032. She does many crazy things, like give birth to triplets for her half-brother, keep rat as pet

Since my friend introduced this show to me, I have seen three times. I cannot help loving it. It is my great love of all.

FRIENDS——boys

Nowadays, young people like to talk about the hot American show—— gossip girl. Yet today I want to say something about a TV show, which was played many years ago but it is still my favourite show, FRIENDS.
Friends began to play at 1995. It describes a series of stories of six good friends meet and experience 10 years. The life, friendship, troubles, laughters, conflicts, love, work perform vividly. The six friends live in New York. They have ch

and humourous personalities.

Chandler is my best love. He is smart, humour guy who live together with Joey. He likes to sit there and watches things happen to other people, and comments on them with his wisecracks. He tries hardly to fight his sensitive psyche and many insecurities. He is good roommate. Joey is an unsuccessful actor so he has not have much money. But Chandler helps him. When Chandler decides to move out in order to live with Monica, he invents a betting game be can lose while playing with Joey, so he could give his cash-strapped friend money without injuring Joey's pride. Monica, from best friend to love mate, successful save him from a loser in love to be a good husband and father.

Joey is another kind of person. He is a always happy-go-lucky guy. He is a man at 30s who fuses to grow up. With his broad-shouldered, wide-eyed, thickheaded and sweat nature, he is a man women loves to hate. He can eat food like a glutton, even a whole turkey. So Monica never bothers by how to deal with the leftovers. On the contrary, she worries whether there has enough food to eat. Sometimes he is a little stupid, and he doesn't understand what others are talking. He has lots of dates, but changes girlfriends frequently. But Chandler is his steadiest partner, his beloved apartment mate.

Monica's helpless brother——Ross, is an expert in his field of palaeontology, but flubs everything else. For example, he goes to a hockey game, takes a puck in the face; he goes to a funeral, falls into an open grave; he tries to find love and tumbles into three divorces. He has three marriages. The first one with Susan,but she is a gay, She goes away with another woman with pregnant. In the second one, he says wrong name in his glorious wedding. It leads to another divorce later. At third time, he seemed to marry the right person: Rachel who owned his heart since high school but at the wrong time and wrong place: Las Vegas and they totally drunk. It ended even before beginning.

what Does Asia Girls like to read

Books are important in that they tell us the meaning of life and throw a light on the way to knowledge.Books play a crucial role in our life and as the heavy pressure on the shoulder of adults teenager is a main group of reading.so far,to see what kind of the book is on trend we can figure out someting in what asia girls like to choose?When it comes to girls reading we immediately think of romantic novel.Is this image still remain in twenty centry?The answer is no.The situation has obviously changed.Girls now have their independent thought in choosing variety kinds of books.So do asia girls.
A japanese girls told me she liked comics most and "NANA"was her favorite.As a sharp expend in cultual industry especially the comic,it has became a widely trend among teenagers around asia,girls no exception.Fueling the imaginations and wake up the quality emotion seems the main reason why these comic became popular and growing continuously.
Even so ,is chinese' favor similar with japanese?Let's hear what they say."I have booked fiction magazine weekly",a chinese girl said,"cause it brings me a totally different world from what i'm living and it always beyond my imagination."Cite science fiction as an example,it usually describe the future or outer space support by scientific theotries.Unkwown always has the power to entice or attact people's concentration so it's not hard to see why girls are attached to these stories.Ironically,all this trendy option do not means girls have fogotten what they used to be.Nor is that means of only romantics.There still be a large propotion who still prefer to read literature.These traditional and classic books will not fall behind the trend cause it has been tested by time.They are the glass reflecting truth,the truth of love and life.Focusing on this issue we can see that books enrich the color of not only asia girls life and world of emotion but also satified the inner world of society.Let's end with an old saying book is the light in the world and the salt on the earth.

the weather I experienced in MN

I have lived in MN for one and a half months. I think I have experienced the weather in MN already.
Before I came here, I had known the winter in MN is really cold. So I just take four T-shirts but many sweaters. However, when I came here, I regretted. It was really hot in summer. And the summer is long. That's really surprised me.
Then, the weather changed suddenly and quickly. Yesterday I wore T-shirt but today I wore sweater! All at once, it had entered in fall. In china, autumn is a very good season. It is sunny and has a bright sky. The autumn wind is cool and nice. I feel comfortable when the wind breeze. People like to go out for a picnic or travel a lot, specially there has a long holiday. However, the autumn in MN is cloudy and rainy. I can't count the rainy days in a week. What's more, it is the first time for me to see the snow in October. It snows frequently. My friends who are in China are also very surprised and jealous. It has fell below zero centigrade. I can't image this in China.
I look forward to seeing the winter. I really hope to experience a different and special winter.

A special Night

It has already 12 clock, but I still don't want to sleep because I am so excited. Tonight is special, I went to a concert with my friends.
When I came back from library, I found Michael, our American friends, came here with four pizzas. I were happy as it means I needn't to cook dinner with my roommate. When we ate, he told us that there will have a concert in suburb, and his friends will perform there. So we decided to go to the concert. It was a long way to go there which took us about at least twenty minutes. We have seven people but only one car. So we crowded in the car.
As we got there, I can hear the song outside. It is a rock concert, and some bands play one by one. The first one was good. People jumped, shook their heads, raised their hands. But the next one is a little ....stupid. I don't like the band. They just yelled something like"hu hu ". And some people shoved each other, kept jumping. I became a deaf almost. I preferred to stay alone rather than listening this kind of music. Michael was so good , he led us to the backstage to see his friends. His friends played punk-music instead of rock. They seemed more neat than other bands. What's more, they performed very well. Actually, I love this band. They were not so intense, but their music had a strong sense of rhythm. I can't help dancing, raising my hands with others. It felt so good when people sang songs together. After playing, we bought their CD since my friends liked them so much.
This is the first time for me to see a concert on live. My heart beats with the rhythm, my body shakes. The only pity is my friend's camera has broken at the concert so we didn't take photos. However, I am still happy. On my daily life, I live in the campus, has a routine. I don't have enough chances to know the real American life deeply. Of course, I don't know if this is the real American life, but it is really different from my daily life. From this, I see a different U.S.A. I look forward to experiencing more things and enriching my life in America.

National Day& Moon Festival

October 1, is my country's national day! At that night, I went to home immediately after class with my roommate. When we got home, we search the Internet for live the military review. Unfortunately, the Internet was so slow. So we went to the neighbour's to watch. It was so exciting. There was many advanced weapons. The troops were in good order, the soldiers were spirited. Suddenly I felt so pound that I am a Chinese. Our country is becoming stronger ,what's more we like peace so much. I know many western median covers that China is the biggest danger in the world. In fact, we love peace because we are victims of wars. So we really don not want the same thing happen again. Why they said we bully Muslim Chinese in Xinjiang, why believe Dalailama, instead of most Chinese people. The world!!


Yesterday was Moon Festival. It is a traditional festival in China. People will go back home to get together with their families, eat feast ,especially the mooncake. The people, who live alone in the foreign land, miss home most. We went to ST.PAUL student center to eat mooncake and play boiling. Then, at our accommodation, we had a party. I had a lot fun with my companions. We sang songs, played mahjong ,talked happily.
When can I see the sun again? Oh my God!!
