My birthday
It was my fist birthday in Singapore.The meaningful and colourful unique party left me a deep memory for I have such a couple of close friends. It was February 1，on Sunday.On the early morning I got up to pray for my 19th year.My roommates suggested going swimming and they said "Happy Birthday to Me!";so we took a bus to NUS,equipted with swimming shorts and glasses.However,the swimming pool was unavailable.So we turned to Queentown to have fun swimming in the clear water.After our exercise we went to a grassground to have a party for me.We called some other schoolmates,asking them to buy KFC fastfood and a birthday cake.It was about at 2:30 that we began our party.We inserted 19 candles into the nice cake,symbolizing I was 19 years old from then.We lit the candles.I made a vow to the God that I hoped ereryone could be happy in the later days.I blew off the lights to bless that my dream can come true.They sang the song for me.I wore a smile.Then I cut the cake ang gave out the pieces…After our meal we played games… It was a memorable birthday party for I saw the real friendship here,always sharing your joys and sorrows and getting together for any reason frequently.I like the feeling of getting together as a result that it can leave you with some treasured memories.Maybe I am an emotional person,however,I really like making sincere friends to share with me,not only sorrows but also the happiness.It is possible that the together time is for the time being,but the memories will last forever.Recalling may be a treasure of youself.
An Indescribable feeling
Recently I didn’t know what had happened , I had a very bad feeling, I didn’t know how to describe it ,and I didn’t know how to solve the problem, I just felt that I couldn’t focus on what I did, how was I ,what had happened to me, how could I find the state which I had when I was in senior high school, I am confused!
I asked some of my friends , they told me that when someone changed to another place, he need some time to adopt himself to the new environment ,and later he would feel better and do better, yes I hope and think so.
But we are getting older and older, we will face different situations in the future, what should we do, wait and let time adopt you? The answer is wrong , if so, you will be washed out by the society, and you will lose yourself in sorrow when you think you are good enough to do the things you need to do.
So , friends, find yourself, don’t lose yourself in what you were, just say “I am who I am” and have confidence in doing any thing, and you’ll achieve your goals.
Now I face a new challenge , I should and must try my best to conquer all the difficulties and I will be the best sooner or later.
Though now I am in the process of recovering , I think I will adjust to the best state of mine, and face all the challenges and say “I can” .

YOU AND ME
I still remember the great opening ceremony of the 2008 Olympic Games. When the huge footprints of fireworks glowed in the sky of our capital, when the sweet song YOU AND ME flowed into our souls, when the cheers of people from all over the world boiled the whole nation, I was deeply moved. I truly believe that harmony and love will be the everlasting themes of human beings!
On May, 12th, 2008, the world saw a terrible disaster in China. And a great people has been moved to fight a great calamity. Hundreds of millions of people have lent their helping hands, showing their unselfish love to their suffering fellows. You and me, the survivers and those who suffered, have their hearts connected, giving each other a strong will. The earthquake can shake the frame of houses and buildings, but it cannot touch the frame of China’s foundation, it can ruin cities and villages, but it cannot ruin Chinese people’s determination!
As members of the young generation, we are not able to change the world at present. But if everyone takes action, we can make a difference. Well, my dear fellow students, what do you think of others who are around you and will share your happiness and sorrow? If you treat them sincerely and love those who care for you, your beautiful soul will be shining like the sun and light up people’s hearts. Then you’ll understand the word “harmony” and enjoy what it brings to you.
Today although the shadow of wars is still shrouding the world, although our world hasn’t become the Garden of Eden, yet, my friends, please have faith in our future, as an old song goes: we are the world, we are the children and we will make a brighter day just you and me!

The Pursuit of Happiness
Recently I have seen a film called the pursuit of life. It tell a story how a middle-aged father struggles to support his family and pursues his happiness .The father is a diligent and wise seller, but somehow he has never been successful. As a father and a husband, he can not even make enough money to meet the essentials in the daily life. So his wife decides to divorce this useless man, leaving their 5 years old son. At this moment, he was driven away from the rented house on account of having not paid for the rent for 2 months; he even can not provide hot food for his poor boy. What he all has are only 21 dollars and the pure love of his son. At this critical time, he finds a work in the famous stock investigation company as a trainee, who will not be paid during the probation. So he has to take the long queue to get the relief in the church, and sleep in the railway station, on the road even in the public bathroom with his son. Even if the life seems so tough and unfair to this poor man, he never gives in to fate. He spares no effort to get sponsor for the company, never caring about being rejected. Meanwhile he never forgets to teach his son to be an honest and optimistic man. After years of unbelievable struggles, he becomes a successful investor eventually, and lives a happy life with his son.
Personally, I think it is really an aspiring film, I feel life is rather hopeful after I saw this film. In spite of poverty, discrimination, divorce, the father never gives up the pursuit of happiness, instead he tries his best to give a relatively better life to his son. He is both a responsible father and a strong man. Compared difficulties confronted with us with the straits the hero was faced with in the film, those can not be called difficulties at all. In fact, what we called trouble will not be trouble if we calm down and make efforts to deal with it. What prevents us in our way to happiness is not difficulty, actually is yourself.
In this much advanced society compared with the time when our parents were children, hi-Tec has provided us with convenience and various entertainments, however, our feeling of happiness is not increasing ,even falling down to some extent. Why? Does the difficulty become thornier? No, the problem lies on us. Growing up in the honey pot, we have seldom encountered severe setbacks in the protection of our parents. So when we meet some little trouble, we just do not know how to deal with it by ourselves. We feel defeated by life, and we can not even calm down to adjust ourselves to the situation, and then we feel pessimistic about the life. However, if you try to face the problem, do not get away from the problem, and turn to someone for help if necessary, or just share your feelings with your friends, or give vent to the frustration .Anyway never give up the pursuit of happiness.
If you feel lonely ,please remember your parents are always behind you; if you are tired of the boring life, please think of the people who are suffering in the war; if you are defeated and feel frustrated, please believe there exist another opportunity ,try your best next time. Do not be stuck in the past, do not just expect the bright future but never do something to make them come true, treasure what you have, seize every opportunity to improve yourself. Always be positive to life, just persisting in pursuing the happiness. Good luck to everyone!

Go to France before it is too late
I am sure France is my dreamland!
I will go to France at all cost!
Paris is my first goal, but what I want to introduce to you is another beautiful place that lies south of France:Provence!
If you travel to break away the bored life, then go to Provence, where you can forget everything, you can be drunk in the smell of old cities full of mysteries and arts. Old and desolate castles, solo valleys, large plaire,twist mountains and active capital, which all set off a kind of charming spirit.
A lot of relics can dated back to centre centuries, as a consequence, there are many cathedrals with different architectural styles. Beautiful girls are everywhere; delicious food and wine are everywhere, peaceful and lazy old men are everywhere too .
Provemce is also the hometown of lavender. in July, the blossom season lavender, you set yourself in the sea of lavender ,you can feel nothing but happiness and paradise .every year of this time ,Provence is just covered a lilac blanket.You can understand that nothing you imagine important in material world can compared with the blossom lavender in silence of the countryside .you can remember the scene in TV show<>,happy and romantic!
It is hard to find a place like Provence where modern inserts old .
It is beautiful Provence.
To be with Provence!Waiting for you in Provence!
I will go to France at all cost!

New Year's thought
I have to say that I am not keen about the Chinese New Year before. Unlike others, I never experience the excitement when the New Year is approaching. On the New Year’s Eve, I will watch the ceremony on TV with my family only when I am forced to. Otherwise, I would definitely prefer to dive into my favorite books in a warm quiet room. It’s not that I don’t love my family, just that I can not accept the exaggerative happiness on everyone’s face. I don’t want my life to be so joyful at one time, yet so miserable at another.
This time the New Year comes again. The excitement, like every year else, can not reach me. 2008 is so dramatic for me. From the stressful preparation for the college entrance exam, to my desperately choosing the most risky pass, all the way to the foreseeable failure in July, things flashed before me, making me busy to react. Not so long after was my overnight fame in HIT, with all the activities I organized, and all the speeches I’ve made. But from the first day, I meant to leave. That university was so small a pond for a big fish like me. I have spent two months preparing for the SM3 qualification exam. But I never really take time to think how I would cope with it once I have passed the exam.
I’m not prepared. The New Year was like a shock to me. What on earth have I done? Why I am here? To look back at the whole year, I was faced with so many cross roads. I don’t know whether I chose the best one. But once I was here, things will be different.
I do miss my friends back in Harbin, Beijing, Hong Kong, and even the States. But I never regret, I am fully responsible for my choice. I fought for my fate and succeed. I should be proud of myself anyhow.
One necessary part for the New Year is New Year resolution. Mine is to keep working hard. Too often, I saw dozens of students talking happily in the canteen through the whole evening. I wish I could enjoy myself like them, but I really couldn’t afford it. Study for me is much more important than a moment’s joy. I know that to achieve my final goal, I have to say “no” to so many enjoyable things. So next time, when I pull my tired eyes from the book and see people having good time around, I would smile, for I am once again the winner in the battle against myself.
“Happy new year!” I said to others, but what I want is peace

LOVELY CHILDREN
Happy ones are just like sunshine, lighting every place where they go. The first time I went to parry hall, I was deeply impressed by those happy creatures! They laughed, jumped, sang and danced. How come I had never realized that before we came to Singapore? I hadn’t had such a high weekend for a long time! It’s partly because we fellow schoolmates in eton hall always stay low, especially those reserved girls. What a pity that we live so far away from each other!
On the first day of Chinese new year, our parry hall friends came to visit us and it was Song Menglu’s 19th birthday. All the 21 of us were together again after such a long separation! We robbed the uncle of his yellow drink and shared it. We played the game “sincere words and big adventure”. Some boys and girls suffered. Zhang Xiaoxiao, one of the girls, had to exchange her glasses with a guy she didn’t know.
After supper, we played killing game regardless of any taboo for the spring festival and really enjoyed ourselves. How I wish we could be together again!!!
