My Hometown

Today, Tina, Wendy, Lynn and me, got up so early because we wanted to took a trip in Kaohsiung and introduce you the city.

At first, we took the MRT to R22A Ciaotou Sugar Refinery. It was pretty large and green. But, today was a cloudy and humid day. So we did not walk around in Ciaotou Sugar Refinery, and we did not hear any chirp or insects’ sound. We were so disappointed. It rained all day long.

Next destination, was R16 Zuoying. After we walked out of the MRT cab met, I saw an enormous triceratop. It as big as a car! Wow, it was my first time to saw such as a huge creature. At R16 Zuoying, there was a painting exhibition. In addition, we took a lot of pictures. I loved them with a lot of creativity in their inventions. Maybe next time, as you come, you can take pictures here, too. I think you will like it very much.

It was twelve o’clock now. We had to go to the New Era to have a lunch because we were extremely hungry. Actually, only Tina did not stopped saying that she was hungry. There are a McDonald's in the New Era so we went there to have lunch. During the lunch, we had lots of fun because I took some humorous pictures with Wendy, Lynn and Tina. They made many ugly faces and I deeply felt losing face. After the lunch, we went to the sixth floor and there are two big robots named Gundam. Gundam was a character of the animation made by the Japanese. It was so cool and amazing to visit them. Tina is the most amazed and excited person of all. Wendy stopped Tina from rushing to that many times. It was a funny condition. For this reason, we did not leave the New Era until the afternoon. When we left the New Era, it stopped raining. However, the weather was still cloudy. We were worried about the weather all the time. Afterwards, we took the MRT to the Central Park. I regard as Central Park being a Distinctive MRT station because there was a beautiful escalator. The escalator had a running water slope. It was terribly beautiful!! I saw many visitors take pictures with it when they passed through the Central Park. You can see that behind me. I hope you also love the escalator.

Reading in Mother’s Day

Today is Mother’s Day. Sunny, Polly, Sandra and MP went to school. They studied because the mid-term is coming soon. They studied so hard. But today is Mother’s Day; they should hold the party for their Mom. Why did they go to school to study? They would have a fascinating cake show. When I heard cake, my eyes were shining. You said “A big cake.” I can’t wait. Let’s go home now. No! No! No! Sunny said. We should study now. That’s right. Wonderful time was worth waiting.

At night, everyone went to a seafood store and had all kinds of seafood in Cijin. Such as fresh fish, fry shrimp and fish soup. The dinner was really delicious. Everyone felt full. My tripe is boom.
Afterwards, we walked to the beach. Cool wind was blowing. How comfortable it was! We took many beautiful photos. Then, Sunny and I took out a big cake. Polly lighted the candle. Everyone was around her Mama. Happy Mother’s Day everyone said their Mamas were touched and cried.

Furnish of House
When I opened the door, Sandra’s family welcomed me passionately. I was so happy. Wow! I saw a sway massage machine. The machine belonged to Sandra’s Mama who wanted to lose weights. When I stood on the machine, it shook my body. It was so funny and made me dizzy. Afterward, I felt hungry. I opened the refrigerator. There were many kinds of food and drinks, especially Coca-Cola. Ha! So good.

At eight o’clock, we sat on sofa and watched TV. I wore a head’s massage machine on my head. How cute I was! The
machine could play relaxing songs. It made me relaxed, and my feet were massaged. It was so itchy. Ha~ha~ha
At eleven o’clock, Sandra’s sister, Sandra and I went to bed. The bed was comfortable. Sandra and I slept together. I fell asleep soon. The next day morning, I was shy and sorry because I kicked Sandra while sleeping.

Family Life
Hi, I’m Momo. Today, I visited Sunny’s home, when I open the door﹐ I met Sunny’s father and her dog, Dodo, Dodo was looking at her father, driveling because her father was eating the snack ”dried codfish”. I thought0 Dodo was a very greedy dog. And then I smelt the flavor from the kitchen.

I saw the Sunny’s Mom is cooking the dinner that looked very delicious. I couldn’t wait to eat. Later, Sunny’s Mom finished cooking. Everyone ran to the kitchen getting ready to eat the delicious dinner. During the dinner, Sunny’s family were talking about what happened today and watching TV. Then, each of the family members did their own routine acted. Sunny’s brother is going to bath. But he likes a woman because he spent so much time taking a bath. I was very impatient. Finally, he was done, but he continued to have fun. He went to the room to play the computer. His life looked so leisurely.

Knock! Knock! I came in. Sunny was drawing and reading the book in the room. The book she read looked so hard. Mom was washing the clothes. Papa was reading the newspaper. My younger brother was playing the computer and DoDo was playing the ball that red ball.
But at 8:00, everyone gathered in front of the television to watch the soap opera — “Parents Heart in the world” happily. At 10:00.It was time to go to bed. Because “the early bird catches worms”


What I Do At Home
Polly and I go home together after school every day. And she always has to use computer to do the homework of mechanical drafting at first after dinner. It’s for sure it is a tiring work, and strains eyes.

And then we often surf the Internet to You Tube that has a lot of movies and music. We casually search for any key words, and connect to YAHOO and it’s convenient to get useful information. For example, we search for many jokes and novels that they always make us belly laugh; reading the online news let us know the current events, and e-mail enables us to share and funny things with our friend. And we also watch the funny dramas on TV, which makes us laugh; sometimes we listen to music that relieve our pressure when we are tired with studying. On the weekend, Polly’s family and she help each other water the plants, and do the chores such as brooming and sweeping the floor, washing the dishes and boilers, taking out the trash, and folding the clothes in the morning. She can sometimes consult her cousin about homework and learn a lot. What a solid life!

Let’s do the volunteer work together

Lynn and Wendy are volunteers working in office. They go to the military officers after lunch daily to sweep and mop the floor, wipe the window and cupboard, water the plants, wash the lid of trash can and clean the teapot. They sometimes deliver messages to other classes. When they have to do more important assignments, they can ask for leave.

Sometimes, Lynn and Wendy share secret with each other, or complain about something they hate. During the time, they can chat about anything they do not want others to know. Certainly, they feel exhausted when they want to sleep during the lunch break, and then they will complain and do not want to be volunteers any more. However, though complaining they still enjoy being volunteers. In addition, they have a good relationship with the military officers. What’s better, they often chat and tell jokes together. The funniest joke is that strangely Mr. Zhen always fails to tell the difference between Lynn and Wendy. In fact, Lynn and Wendy are not sisters or twins. They do not even bear any resemblance.

Ms. Lee is responsibility for monitoring their service hours. Look at the picture! She is very beautiful, is not she? She is also gentle and treats them generously. She was excited when Lynn and Wendy introduced me to her.

There were three boys in the picture. They were too shy. Wendy did not stop taking pictures until all the boys look at the camera. Perhaps, Wendy was not satisfied with the photos. See! The boys did not look at the camera at all. Opps! I forget to introduce them. They are also volunteers. They are responsibility for taking out the garbage. Why they started talking to Lynn and Wendy? Because: Wendy sometimes helps them to clean the garbage when the garbage becomes too much. But I think the main reason is that Wendy often does strange and funny things. For instance, she falls down from time to time, and she sometimes holds a drink which is not opened and asks them,” Do you want to drink?” Once, the boy responded, “I would like to throw up.” It made me laugh. In fact, the drink was not expired yet. Wendy is strange, is not she?

Shh…… look at the picture! I almost reached the food this. Unfortunately, I was caught by Wendy. I was so hungry then. But I was not allowed to eat. Next time! I will make it. Ha ha!

We visited the principal because Lynn, Tina and Wendy wanted to introduce Ruth and me to him. On May 26th, the principal was available. Wendy ask the principal what they have to improve in the project. The principal replied, “ You are very good” and encouraged them. Nevertheless, they still believed could do better.

Finally, let me tell you a piece of good news. I have a new friend, Mr. Brownie, who came from Taipei.

Momo with his family and friends

I came to class for nearly a month, In the class made a lot of new friends, like Turtle, Olan, boat, Poky and Bo-Han. Look at right picture! You can see a boy called Bo-Han from the right side of the first, he is a very strange person, for example, he is very like to eat corn, and you always do not know what did he think?

Poky is the order of our class leader, he is very friendly and result in you not listen to him, although he was careful in his duties, in order to honor the class, we must obey his orders, so that our results can be Recognition.

I went to Boat house after class, his mother is also very warm woman and we would play online games. Who is highest-ranking person on the server? Excuse me! I had to go! I , therefore, know very fun online game Ragnarok Online let me make more online friends have more opportunities to know a lot of people and know some of their interesting life stories.
They always make me very happy because they always have many interesting things to do, such as playing basketball and tiring 1500-meter run test, all the time all together, just as gay as.
They also took me back to their home, to know their families. In addition, everyone in Mechanical Drafting Class B is pretty good to me. In the turtle home, I know a very famous Japanese cartoon, for instance, Fullmetal Alchemist is a really very nice cartoon for us!! I, even though, feel the warmth in a strange land.


They also told me how to communicate with family, such as, respect for elders and filial their parents. If there are problems or interpersonal problems in their life, you can share with own parents, and thus you would understand what decision you should do to make situation current in your life. Parents can give us a lot of opinions. Importantly, we should not make our parents worried that we will become a bad person for society.

In every families, brothers and sisters have been very important for every one. If there are difficulties in homework, you can seek assistance or to aid them. Also that can also promote each other's feelings.What’s more, I really love home cook, I regard as it’s the best food all over the world in my mind. However, if the bed isn’t mine, I can’t sleep in a good feeling and this is what I have learned how to communicate with his family, I am very happy to be friends with these friendly people.

Life of the school

Every Monday, we have to gather in the morning. Although the weather is hot, we still stand on the playground. At the end of the morning assembly, all of the students have to do morning exercise.




The first class on Monday morning was the art class. We drew the comics out of our own idea. In fact, my classmates don’t like the art class because it’s boring, and so do I because I can’t draw very well.

At noon, we all have to take a lunch break.
It makes us restore our energy for the afternoon. During that time the school is very quiet.

The first class in the afternoon was PE class. We had to do warm-up; otherwise we might get hurt during running or playing the basketball.
All of the classmates like it because we can do exercise in the PE class.
