Post 6 --Keep connecting my dear friends
At this time, I don't want to say too much, our class is like a family, we experienced so much fun together. I will take business english class after this course finishes. What I want to do is to pass all exams and I have to improve my english. I want to have more time to study here so that I can communicate with my friends. I don't know what the future will be, just go step by step and catch chances to make myself strong. I hope we will meet at any place in the world, that will be amazing. I hope everyone has a happy life ever day and has a bright future.
Thank you for all my friends, please remember me, I will miss you all the time.

From China To Canada
China and Canada are located in the different sides of the earth, there is almost fourteen hours difference between the two countries. I have been in Canada for nearly two month, I find there are some interesting things between the two cultures. It is funny to compare the cultures between east and west of the earth,some are different and some are similar.
First, I find there are so many different things between Canada and my country. The character of Canada is more warming and open than China. Canadian say hello to every and good friends kiss each other on street; it is unbelievable in China for good friends kiss each other in public, if some people do that, others will think they are lovers. Chinese are warming to others too, however, we will not show that strongly. Canadians always show their feelings directly, in opposite, Chinese show that indirectly and will find some reasons to explain it.The diet is totally different. There are many kinds of fries, steaks, salads and pizzas, most of cookings use electric stoves. In my home, we cook by fire and we need to control the degree of the fire, we always combine vegetables and meats in a container. Using different kinds of flavouring substance, we can cook different flavours. The housing between Canada and China is also a huge difference. In Canada there are so many houses with yards in the urban area, only in downtown I can see some skyscrapers. However, It is easy to see high buildings in any cities in China, because of the huge numbers of population, most of us live in apartments. The house with a yard we call it villa, a family who is very rich live in that house.
Second, we also have some similarities.The ways to show surprise are same. When a Canadian meets something surprise he will say: Oh, “my god.” In China we also express like that, only change the word ‘god’ to ‘sky’. From another said, we all respect the heaven.We have the same urban problem: traffic jam. Every day we need to waste a plenty of time on the road in rush hour. Roads become parking plaza, there is full of people in a subway.
Different cultures made up the colourful world, we learn the differences and enjoy the happiness they bring to us. Now I have adapted the life in Canada, differences are not a obstacle but a interesting world for me.

Amazing Trip To Jasper
Four day's weekend was a long weekend for me, I always stayed at home if there was a long weekend in China, because there were so many tourists in all attractions. It is different here, My friends and I decided to leave out of downtown and close to natural forest, so we rented a car and drived to Jasper National Park.
There are too many things that I interested.
First, when we entered the express way I saw some bridges, I was confused and thought about why there were so many stone and mud bridges on the road. Then I remembered a passenger next to me when I came to Canada. He told me that the local people love animals and they also protect animals rights , so if they have to build a road through animals home, the local government will build natural bridge for animals to cross the road.
Second, the scene shocked me, huge snow mountains , green lakes and vast forest, we all felt that we became a part of the nature. We went to skywalk and saw the valley, standing on the glass I can see the bottom of the valley. At first I feel a little afraid but a moment later I felt awesome.
Third, Columbia ice field gave me a feeling of original nature all the world around me was white. I could feel the power of nature.
I had a pleasant long weekend I hope I can have more long weekend so I can travel all Calgary.

Post # 3 - Success
What's success, different person has different answers. Elizabeth Gilbert told us success was home that whatever in the word you love more than you love yourself. That's correct. What's success, my answer is love, I have asked to much love from others and I should show my love to others. Love can enhance the belief among us. I will keep on doing things that I love when I am in trouble. I believe I can get a perfect result through persistence. The process may be painful but the outcome must be beautiful.

I heard this song when I was a student. I was in a time in my life where I was feeling really bad and starting to feel that giant burden on my shoulder, the song give me different feelings. I felt my hurt was relieved.The rhythm of the song made me clam and I thought the world was not bad, I would overcome the difficulties.The lyric gave me courage, it taught me that I should stand up and go forward. the song give me a imagination, a beautiful scenery appeared in my mind, then I was enjoying that. Now, I do my best for everything, and do not afraid of failure. Just believe it will be better tomorrow.
