Friday, April 1st, 2011 Today is April fool, it is interesting to play a jok with others. However, since I have no class today and I have stay at home for whole day, I cannot cheat anybody. Actually, perhaps I can make a call but I think that it is not as fun as face-on-face. Then I quit my idea. This quarter I am taking Acct 101 so I have a lot of assignment to deal with. Indeed, everyday I need to spend one more hours to finish the financial statement. It is very boring to do so many calculation. However, if I am asked to choose calculation or writing, of course I prefer calculation because I have poor writting. I always write very slowly. See, I spend much more time to finish my joural.

Tuesday, April 5th, 2011 I wrote down the tittle of journal on Tuesday but forgot to finish at that night. Thus, it seems a little strange to memerize record some things three days ago. I had no many classes on Tuesday. I remembered that when I had ended my Geog 101, I came back home and then went to bed till three o'clock p.m.. Since I could not fall asleep at the last night, I spend lots of time watching movies. Actually, when I went to bed, it had been already 5 a.m.. I could hardly wake up at the morning to take the composition class. In the afternoon, I feld boring and then I played basketball. I called my friends with me. However, they seemed that they all were taking class so I just played alone.

Saturday, April 9th, 2011 I watched some news today and feld very worried. It is said that every year there are hundreds million graduated students who need to face employment in China. This situation leads to stronger and better competitive advantage on manpower resource. However, it also brings forth cheaper wages and more difficulty of obtaining employment for Chinese graduated students. Thus, I am also concernd about that what job I can have after I graduate. Indeed, I have no very stronge competitive advantages between others. It has become harder and harder to make a living in China. I hope that I can find a good job by my own insdead of by my parents.

Sunday, April 10th, 2011 This week is Chinese Qing Ming Day which people usually offer sacrifice to the ancestors. As an essential part of Chinese tradional culture, Fengshui which affects people a lot has been handed down from generation to generation in China for twenty centuries. Although nowadays the development of science causes a significant effect on the death of superstition, Fengshui affects many aspects of Chinese life, especially in Canton. Actually, if I am at home now, I need to go back my hometown and arrivel at my relatives' burial ground to burn somethings to them. It seems not very scientific but we believe that our ancestors will bless our lives. It is similar with that people believe in God.

Wedesday, April 13th, 2011 Today I reviewed some Tang poet in high school. I suddenly found thatIn Chinese five thousand histories, Tang Dynasty is the most hallowed age of all time in Chinese people's mind. It is because not only China was the most powerful country in the world at that age but also China scored brilliant achievements in the world of act. Especially, the development of poetry had reached to full prosperity. Nowadays, Tang poetries have become the most common source for children's elementary education. Indeed, for almost all Chinese people, they can easily reel off some Tang poetries such as Jingyesi or Chunxiao.

Thuesday, April 14th, 2011 When I was remind something about Tang poet, I will always associate the poetry with Tang Dynasty. Likewise, when referred to the Tang poetry, unquestionably I will think of Li Bai, the most influent poet at the golden age of poetry. Many people consider that the image of Li Bai can strike root in the heart of Chinese people because of his splendid success in the field of Tang poetry. However, except for his outstanding poetries, his inner spirits are the really reason why Li Bai has been engraved on Chinese people's mind for more than one thousand years. His spirits appear in the Golden age of Chinese history. Chinese people always are so pround of that dynasty.

Saturday, April 16th, 2011 Today I made a call to my parents and asked them about that if I should change my major. We told a lot. It reminded me that I used to experience the same situation when I was in high school. At that time, I was ready to choose my future major in Chinese University. My father told me that I would better choose some major about education or medicine. However, I considered that I should arrange my life while I started my college life. I ignored most suggestion from my father. Actually, my father hold that I could help him manage his school business if I chosen the major about education. Due to the more and more competitive job market, new graduated students need to possess some more professional and practical skills. In his opinion, that I chosen these major could receive benefit from the future. Nevertheless, I disappointed him and made an impulsive decision. Now, when I look back over the past, I learn that the elder's advices are so important to me.

Sunday, April 17th, 2011 I am a little disappointed about Jingdezhen's decline. When I learned history in high school, Jingdezhen was mentioned for many times in the Chinese history textbook because it is an essential part of Chinese handicraft industry. Thus, whenever Jingdezhen appears, Chinese people are able to think of the porcelain immediately. Also, because Chinese splendid porcelain achievement and Jingdezhen 's decisive influence for producing porcelain during 15th century, European named China by using Jingdezhen's used name. As a result, if Jingdezhen is no longer regarded as the city of porcelain, this city will lack its traditional and unique artistic charm. Actually, when I will visit Jingdezhen one day, I hope that the city can change their backward situation and will possess a bright future.

Monday, April 19th, 2011 Today I could hardly wake up to take the class this afternoon.

Monday, April 25th, 2011 I felt very tired today.

Tuesday, April 26th, 2011 No thing important happens today.

Wedesday, April 27th, 2011 Today I received my first grade of Accounting test. It was better than I used to think. I hope I can keep going.

Thuesday, May 5th, 2011 Today I review my MIS assignment and found a video which is about teamwork. In the video, the division of their tern work is clear-cut and each one being charged with specific responsibilities gives me a very strong impression. As a leadership, it gives us a clue how to lay out their work and also explain how to run an admirable corporation in a clear and effective way. When I do the MIS assignment, I find some works that were done before are very relative. Certainly, I can do each job on time now.Especially, everyone has their specific objective and experience to show his accurate function in his work. Therefore, I can draw a lesson from them when I also participate in some tern works such like that.

Friday, May 6th, 2011 It is said that man is a kind of very complicated advanced creature. In different case, he can have diverse behaviors. Especially, when people are head over heels in love, their character seems more elusive and unpredictable. In my experience, when I was in puppy love, I did a lot of unbelievable things at that time because I obeyed the mood of the moment blindly. However, since I came to be more mature, I have summarized some common attitudes to their lovers when people who fall in love suffer the conflict at different period. However, I still alone now because I ready feel troublesome.

Saturday, May 7th, 2011 I am deeply disappointed about Jingdezhen's decline. When I learned history in high school, Jingdezhen was mentioned for many times in the Chinese history textbook because it is an essential part of Chinese handicraft industry. Thus, whenever Jingdezhen appears, Chinese people are able to think of the porcelain immediately. Also, because Chinese splendid porcelain achievement and Jingdezhen 's decisive influence for producing porcelain during 15th century, European named China by using Jingdezhen's used name, Chuangnan. As a result, if Jingdezhen is no longer regarded as the city of porcelain, this city will lack its traditional and unique artistic charm. Actually, when I visit Jingdezhen one day, I hope that the city can change their backward situation and possess a bright future.

Sunday, May 8th, 2011 I can hardly stand sleep deprivation. Normally I get used to more than eight hours sleep a night. Otherwise, I cannot concentrate on my study. In my opinion, that people go to sleep seems like that the machine refills its energy. If the machine is used in low power, of course it is in low efficient working. When the machine become adept at with this condition, it is easy to reduce the machine's life. As a result, people notice that there should be some maintenances of machinery. Similar to the machine, people should also take care of themselves by promoting their sleep schedule. People learn that some diseases such as a cold result from low resistance. However, they ignore that tiredness lowers their resistance and sleep deprivation leads to tiredness.

Monday, May 9th, 2011 When people present the information, they usually want to begin with an attractive introduction. However, they sometimes give too much information in the first part but forget that they should more focus on their body information. In this case, it causes that the presenter sometimes has no enough time to talk the rest of his presentation. Another consequence is that audiences may find his idea is repeated in the presentation; as a result, it seems boring. Actually, after mention the topic in the first part, presenters should quickly talk about the body because their main idea is always in the body.

Tuesday, May 10th, 2011 I need to write a new memo for tomarrow assignment.Now I am confused about what topic should I choose. In my experience, last time I choose the most common topic which is about Japan's earthquake in my presentation. When I prepared my presentation, I have read a lot about the earthquake. Therefore, whenever some other presenters talked about this topic, I felt a little bored. Indeed, if I was the judge, I would never give a high grade.Therefore, when presenters are given a clear topic, they need to look for some original and novel information to their presentation.

Wedesday, May 11th, 2011 I heard that students likely often complain that they do not process enough time when they receive some assignments which require them to read a lot. Sometimes they only skim the pages and do not gain some main points from the textbook. Indeed, they cannot be comprehensible to communicate with their teacher. Actually, there are some effective ways to help promote one's reading and learning skills.For example, when students read a history book, according to different age, they can memorize some similar events or figures to gain a whole expression on the topic.

Thuesday, May 12th, 2011 Today I got a test. Yesterday I spent a lot of time to review some chapters. I found some helpful skills that may make my review work more effectively. When I read a specific chapter, I think that I should make sure their exactly purposes. Since I know what information they need, I could choose which reading types I use to review in my test effectively. Finally, making organized notes to summarize what I learn from the textbooks is also an important way to improve their review skills. Indeed, making notes not only helps remember the knowledge more clearly but also applies a more easy way to look over what I learn from the textbook.

Sunday, May 15th, 2011 When I was in Chinese university, I always have a disorder schedule. Actually, it was not only me but also most of my friends. In Guangdong Medicine College, they like to make an appointment in the evening to complete a task of Internet games. Even though they need to have class next day, they cannot control themselves to sleep. In fact, they totally reverse their sleeping time and of course it seriously influences their health. Consequently, they often have a inanimate condition on the first two days during a week. However, now I always wake up early and sleep on time.

Monday, May 16th, 2011 Today I watched a presentation from PPS. This presentation gives me a very strong impression. As a leadership, it gives us a clue how to lay out their work and also explain how to run an admirable corporation in a clear and effective way. Certainly, I can do each job on time now. However, in the future we may receive some complex programs. Therefore, that Riley's work offers a useful experience for me. Especially, everyone has their specific objective and experience to show his accurate function in his work. Therefore, I can draw a lesson from them when I also participate in some tern works such like that.

Tuesday, May 17th, 2011 These days I always heard that my professors liked to take other countries as their examples. It seems that an age ago there were seldom international students who came from China and Middle East countries. Wall Street was also the only biggest business center in the world at that time. However, the situation which more and more international students study in America has been very common. Actually, today business colleges need to help students enhance their global perspective and study the analysis of companies outside the United States.

Wedesday, May 18th, 2011 It is said that man is a kind of very complicated advanced creature. In different case, he can have diverse behaviors. Especially, when people are head over heels in love, their character seems more elusive and unpredictable. In my experience, when I was in puppy love, I did a lot of unbelievable things at that time because I obeyed the mood of the moment blindly. However, since I came to be more mature, I have summarized some common attitudes to their lovers when people who fall in love suffer the conflict at different period. On the other hand, now I want a girl friend but it always requires me to do a lot of jobs to pursuit her. I feel very bored.

Friday, May 20th, 2011 It is said that every person has his own intimate communicational group. How people define themselves belonging to which circle more depends on their age. In China, when the 1970’s peer group has a gathering, they will frequently talk about if they have a villa or BMW, which can display their social status. The generations of the 1980s will compare if they have an impressive job or an admirable income, and the generations in the 1990s will compare if they have a good score or have opportunities to get a high education. However, people seldom compare with people who are at different age groups because the discrepancy in their ages seems to the biggest excuse why they have various achievements.

Saturday, May 21th, 2011 Smoking is described as effectively releasing their pressure.I remember that my three roommates started to smoke and later got accustomed to smoking in the last year at high school. Before this, we used to promise that we would never smoke in the dormitory. However, at that time, all the students need to face the Chinese University Entrance Exam and had a lot of comparisons from their peers. Sometimes when they took the preliminary exam and got the unsuccessful score that was lower than their peers, they were acutely conscious of having failed their parents. However, I always don't smoke. I feel pround of myself.

Tuesday, May 24th, 2011 My first girlfriend was my high schoolmate. We saw each other frequently in the library or the dining hall. We studies together for assignments and texts. When she finally confirmed that I was very serious and certain to want her to be my girlfriend but not for giddy happenstance, I had spent one year to pursue her. I thought that this courtship was rather implicit and gradual. If a couple of lovers have not enough experience that they suffer together, it is hard to maintain a real and long-term love. It is very common that many romantic movies’ the leading and actress used to divorce but when they memories some happy things or some substances that make them deeply touch; they will make up. Though those movies are platitude, we can’t have a lot of experience from them.

Wednesday, May 25th, 2011 I pretty appreciate that Cambridge endow public art projects with more utilitarian functions. In my opinion, those kind of artworks can more attract people’s attention. Indeed, in the modern high-speed society, people seem to have no time to follow the interest with surrounding public arts. Perhaps they would rather pay for some large scale museums to see famous artists’ painting or sculptures. However, I feel that some compositions which are Surrealist are too abstract to understand. For instance, Pablo Picasso’s painting “Guernica” was contained of many individual pieces of substances. Many experts explain that this painting is to show people’s tension and terror during the war.
