Tomorrow is almost Spring Break and most people need to stay until lunch and they can leave but people that are in the musical, stage art, adn orchestra need to stay to 3:10. But before school end, we have two midterms from the only two classes we have. The first midterm is Math and the second is English. I am not worried that much for math but I am a bit worried about my English midterm. However, after school today, I practiced piano and violin then, I played Draw my Thing from omgpop.com. The game is pretty fun and I played against my brother as well as other people.

          My grandma is kind of sick and is in the hospital so my mother went down to Tainan to take care of her, leaving me, my brother, and my father at home. Since, no one can pick me up now after school, I left like 15 minutes earlier before school end so that a driver from my mom's office can come and pick me up. Then, I spend time at home playing the piano and violin. I also read a little since 30-50 minutes of sitting in the car is no longer needed. I also took a little nap and I slept a bit too late...Today, Mr.Carlos handed us back our Spanish Midterm and I got much lower than what I expected to get. But then, I checked Veracross and found out that Mr.Carlos used the curve to grade so my grade increased by quite a lot. But still, I know that I am not very good at Spanish.

          I updated my blog and it looks completely weird. Everything looks different not that I like it or dislike it. I wish I can undo and make it back to normal because I am a routine kind of person that when things are different, they won't get used to it. Well, nevermind that...Today, we had History test and I find it okay even though I don't really like History. I don't really like History because I find the subject boring and it doesn't catch my attention at all. I find other subjects more interesting. No offense meant...

          We have so much midterms these days. When I type much and I think to myself, what a wonderful world...just kidding, and I think to myself, when do we use much and many. I can never remember the difference. On, as I mentioned in the beginning about the and I think to myself, what a wonder world.. That is a song from Louis Armstrong, I think. Today during lunch, Eve said "and I think to myself" and I cut her by saying "what a wonderful world". It is quite funny and interesting. Today, we had a science lab and it's awesome even though it stinks. It is very colorful and I recommend you to try this lab out.

          During the weekend, I went to a piano competition unlike the ones I've ever been to. This competition is a competition that isn't separated between middle school and elementary. Not only that, this competition is not separated from the music school people and the not music school people. By that, I mean students who study music in school as their major subject. I don't know how to explain it clearly. But that is not the point. The point is that hose people really are good. I might be good at music in school and in my class but I sucked totally. The people in the competition are so good and I feel sad. But now that it is all over, I should study and focus more on my homework and tests. Midterm week is coming up and I should study especially when my Spanish Grade is about to change into another letter. 

          There's something weird looking about my journal today but I don't know what. It's just very weird, unlike the usual. Well, nevermind that. Today, I had a not so good day. I feel so tired and bored and annoyed. I know why I feel tired and I am the only one to blame. Yesterday, my father came back to Taiwan from France from a business trip and he brought quite a lot of stuff. He brought some bags for my mother, some clothing for whoever, a rubik's cube with Mona Lisa on it for whoever, a little book of post cards, and quite a lot of amount of chocolate. I claimed the rubik's cube since I have a very small 3x3 but this one is bigger. I am hoping that I can improve my skills on it but I find it harder to figure out since it's so fancy. I also want to claim the little book of post cards since I collect post cards but I decided to leave it for my oldest brother who isn't home. He also collects post cards. I have quite a big collection of post cards. I have at least 100 post cards and I like them all and would be sad to give any away. Fine, to tell the truth, I will be happy to give some post cards away that I find awfully ugly. But, since I wrote a tally mark system with marker, I can't erase it so I will still keep all of my 100 post cards.

          Today is a happy day for me and I do not know why. But because I'm happy, I am going to type a lot of what I found out and what happened today. First things first. This is my number 101 post in my journal. I'm happy. Today, on the way to school, I realized taht I have to feed my brother's turtle for 4 weeks in a row. We rotate each week but since this week, I made a deal with him, I need to feed it. Next week is my turn and next next week, he's going to Grad-Trip so I have to feed it again. Then, after that, it's still my turn. I hate feeding the turtle even though it's a very simple job. Today, Vivian didn't come to school so we didn't take the class photo which is a good thing because I don't really want to take a photo. Then, we had public speaking class and it is so interesting. We need to do alibi and we have to suspect each other and I find it so interesting. I wish we can do that again. Then, we have science as usual. After lunch, we had art and I made a praying-mantis and I like it very much. It's pretty cool and it's one of the artworks that I make that I like (hinting that I don't like most of my artworks from art). Then, we have Spanish. I like Spanish class quite a lot. One reason why I like Spanish is because we get to sing. I like singing. It's fun! Today, he handed back the test we took last week and I am so happy of my score even though it still will bring my grade down. I improved by quite a lot and I beat Dylan for the second time in Spanish! Then, after school, I headed home as usual and played piano and violin as usual. Then, for break, I went upstairs to find a friend/teacher(grownup) where we chatted and I learned how my dog died. I don't like dogs and today, I learned that we didn't kill that dog. The dog died because the previous owner feed him a kind of dog food that was not good for the dog. Not only that dog died, a lot more dog throughout the world died because of the food that company produces. Then, on my way home, I learned that one of the kittens we gave to a friend, is going to die because of some kind of bug in it's blood. I feel sad since I once owned the kitten which is now a cat and I like cats. Also, my dad came back from France today. :) It's such a happy day.

          I hate hiccups. They are so very annoying and it never seem to stop for me especially when I want it to. When I try to talk, try to laugh, and even yawn while I have hiccups, the hiccups come out as a very loud burp. I hate hiccups. I also hate it when people order me around to do this and do that. Normally, my mom will tell us kids to do something and the first thing my brother does is "Sister" and of course, he says it in chinese. What he means is he wants me to do whatever my mom told "us" to do. Today, it happened today. My mother said that salt is running out and the first thing my brother does is "Sister". Then, he started saying that he has an essay to do and that he didn't finish it yesterday at 12:30 and then, i said...."Ehh...what were you doing before? Playing computer games, chatting...." *Sigh...Then, we rocked paper siccored and I lost so I went. Tough luck.

          Joseph's life became so boring since he got banned from computer games and he started reading a lot. He finished quite a lot of books which is quite scary. He finished How to Kill a MockingBird in about a week I think and if I am the person reading it, I probably won't even finish it in a month. Talking about books, I nearly finished Lord of the Rings I. It is so boring but yet, I want to finish it. Science is getting so hard. I don't understand this coming chapter. Spanish is also very hard. A lot of subjects are very hard. But some is really easy compared to others. While some classes are totally boring while others are very interesting. However, some classes are not boring but the subject is which sucks...I have a huge variety of classes ranging from hard to easy, boring to interesting.

          My brother is very unlucky these days. Last Friday, he went and competed against other people in the music competition and won fifth place. Two years ago, he won second place. It is still pretty good. I didn't go this year but according to my mother, everyone's level is much better than two years ago. This Saturday, my brother, me, and my mother went to a funeral of my cousin in Juang-Hua. Me and my brother and other cousins stood up with nothing to lean on for at least one hour. I feel so restless. I want to bend my knees, run around, or at least walk around and talk! But, I can't. I have to stand there, hands together, knees straight for one hour. I cried at the funeral as well as many other people but I didn't cry as badly as other people. I don't know whether that's a good sign or a bad sign. My house is so lonely these days. Long ago, there are 5 people living in it. Nowadays, there are 4 people living in it since my oldest brother is in college. Now, there's 3 people living in it because my dad went to France on a business trip. But soon, it will go back to 4. Then, after Summer, it will go back to 3. I will be so lonely. I don't feel like doing any homework. I wish I was smarter. Today, I started working on my Science homework and I didn't understand a couple questions and I keep bugging and asking my brother and all he answers is nothing.... So, I decided to make a deal with him. I will feed his turtle for this week since it's his turn to feed his turtle and I will also feed it next week since next week is my turn. Then, he told me to search a key word from the problem and after searching it up, I realize what the answer was. Now, I am going to have to feed his turtle for nothing much. He is such a cold blooded animal!!!...!!!

          Today is the Poetry Contest. I didn't even except that I will get into the finals but I did. In our class, Eve won. My brother also won and the way my brother read the tittle "Sonnet" is so funny. Today, the results for MIT also came out and my brother didn't get in. Also, my father is going to France today. Also, today is such a shinny day in the morning but at night, it is so very foggy. Also, my brother is not coming to school tomorrow because of the viola competition. Also, me, Howard, Dylan and Sean made a choir during Ms.Ruperez's class. We sang her name from low pitch to high pitch. Howard was first then came Dylan. However, Dylan's pitch is lower than Howard's which makes it very funny. Then, Sean sang and I sang last as the highest pitch. It is so fun.

March 14, 2012

          So much things are coming up at once now. Tomorrow is the Poetry Contest and my father is going to France on a business trip. On Friday, my brother is going to have the Music Competition for viola. On Saturday, me and my mother and my brother is going to JuangWua to visit relatives. It is going to be a busy and annoying following days. For a long time, I right eye hurts when I move my eye balls. I don't know why but I hope it get well soon. Also, we took a Spanish test today and it's so hard. I consider Spanish as a very hard subject and a very hard subject to get an A. So far, my grade is standing on an A- which is good and then, when the test is finished grading, my grade probably will go down even if I get a 80. 80 is improvement for me but it's not good enough to keep my grade the same.

          Yesterday night to today morning, I had a very weird dream. I dreamed of all the students in our school as well as teachers in my grandparent's house in Tainan. Isn't that weird? Well, somehow, there is a super gigantic lake that popped out of nowhere in my grandparent's yard! Then, Ms.Sherry announced each grade to be paired up into groups of three and since people often complain we have to less sport related activity, each group is going to try to build their own raft to head from one side of the lake to the other side. However, the lake is huge! But, I am glad this dream took place in my grandparent's house since I know where everything is. I got paired up with Joseph and Howard and I do not know why so don't ask me why. Then, later on in my dream, I remembered going around the yard, gathering wood pieces and tying them up all together. During that time, I have completely no idea what Howard and Joseph is doing. Then, while exploring the yard for materials, I saw some big pieces of styraphone and an idea popped out in my mind. I took all the styraphone there is and I put it under the wooden boards, causing the boat to float. It turned out that our boat was steady and firm and awesome! Thinking back to my dream now, I wonder...how people can be so smart in their dream and combine things that are totally weird all together. Also, why did I have Joseph and Howard and Ms.Sherry in my dream and not any one else!!! I have other questions as well. One day in the future when I can imagine anything I want, I am going to invent a dream catcher. It will catches what I think while I am asleep and catch what ideas I have. For example, a lot of times, while laying in bed, I thought about my homework and suddenly, I remembered that I forgot to put my Spanish Cards in my bag so I ended up having to walk all the way down to first floor with my shorts, put int in my back, and run all the way up. With that new invention, I wouldn't have to get up and I won't forget anythings while sleeping and I will know what dreams I dreamed of.

          Today is such a boring and cold day. I have nothing interesting to type about. I slept at 11 last night because I watched a movie and I'm feeling a bit tired right now, but I voluntarily stayed up till 11 so, I can't blame it on anyone but myself. Yesterday, I planned to read for the night but then, I ended up watching a movie. I planned to finish The Fellowship of the Ring but my planned failed. I still have about 100 pages to go. To be exact, I have 87more pages to go. I find this book quite boring. There are some interesting parts in this book but most of it so far is quite boring. When both me and my brother are younger, he liked to watch Lord of the Rings movie on TV. I didn't like it much since I was younger and it's full of weird looking people and monsters. However, I want to rewatch the series to see whether anything changed about my opinion about that series. Even though I find the first book boring, I am still going to continue reading the second and finish the third because if I stop reading the series and later on in the future, I want to read it again, I will start from the second book and I won't understand a bit.

March 11, 2012

          Even though today is a day unlike other weekends, it is a boring difference. Early today morning, my father drove me and my brother to violin class and then, my parents and my oldest brother drove down to Changhua. Then, at Changhua, my oldest brother headed back to ChaiYi. After violin class, me and my brother have to ride the bus back and walk back home. Then, my parents came back from Changhua at about noon. Also, I feel very unbusy today since all my homework are done...This week will be very busy. Next week, my whole family except my oldest brother is heading down to Changhua. Also, the results of the colleges my brother applied are coming out and next Friday, my brother is going to have the viola world competition.

March 8, 2012

          Today is a day of many events. A lot happened today, some for the better and for the fun while others for the worse. In my life, I know of three people that have cancer. One is a grown up who took care of me when I was a baby while my parents are at work. I miss her very much. The second is my relative who is very young and I will miss her during family visits. The third one is a friend who is the same age as I am who I see quite often. That is a hint of what part of my day was. Today, 5 in the morning, I woke up to the sound of the telephone ringing and my first thought was really bad. I then, tried to go back to sleep but I can't so I went and used the restroom. Then, I went back to bed but then, I still can't fall asleep because my stomach hurts and so, I went to the bathroom and stayed their for some while. I had a stomach ache. Then, I went to bed. Finally, I woke up at 7 and the normal school day started. All was like the usual until club times. During club, I joined Orchestra (the musical), several people are missing. My brother is missing because he is going to Taipei to rehearsal with the pianist for the up coming competition. Ben and Jeremy is also missing from the first violin while Victor is missing from the viola and Christiana is missing as well. That means that there are only two first violin and that's not very well especially when the two first violins are Howard and Alice. Ms.Ivy then told me to go and substitute in first violin. I did...Then, a lot of funny things happened. After orchestra, I went past to Mr.McCool's room and saw who entered the competition and in our class, Eve, Dylan, and I entered. Then, I scrolled my eyes down and saw my brother also entered the competition. How interesting...

          These days, I am teaching Joseph Huang how to play Bridge, a card game. I am teaching him how to play Bridge because he claims that his weekends are so boring without a computer since he is banned from computer games. So, I decided to teach him how to play Bridge. Bridge is an uncommon poker card game that young people play nowadays. I learned Bridge from my brothers who probably learned it from some of our relatives. I like playing poker cards. In fact, I am a huge fan of them. :) . Bridge is a very complicated poker card game and it involves a lot of thinking and memorizing of the cards. Unlike, Big Two, Bridge is more of a strategy game while Big Two depends quite a lot about luck and what cards you get. I wish the world can be full of more Bridge players but not necessary gamblers.

          Today, I am very sad because we had a PE final and I lost again. I nearly always win every single PE final. I won probably like one or two and got one tied and the rest are all losts. I wonder why.... I want to win but it just don't happen....I try my best, my teammates try their best...I wonder what the problem is...After the game, Mr.Li walked over to me and asked how I feel..I told him that I feel bad..Then, he gave me a long talk about leadership. It's pretty interesting and I agreed mostly with him. Either than that, today was a very awesome day for me. I received two tests back today and I liked both my scores. But soon, I forgot completely about my test scores and stayed grumpy and sad for the rest of the day...The world is full of a lot of different kinds of people. I am a kind of person who set a goal and don't have the determination to fulfill the goal. My brother is a completely different person. If he set a goal, he will try to achieve it and most times, he does. Next Friday, he is going to the world (Taiwan) viola competition. Two years ago, he won first place...I wish I can set goals and achieve it. I can set goals alright but I can't achieve that's why I wish I can achieve that. I do wish a lot of things and I should stop wishing and wanting.

March 5, 2012

          This week, there are a huge amount of homework. Well, at least in my opinion. Thinking about that, there is a huge amount of homework that I have to do during the week because during yesterday, and the day before yesterday, I barely worked on any homework. So, now, I have a huge pile of homework waiting for me. Also, for English homework, we need to come up with a haiku that we need to submit for the poetry contest and I can't be able to choose which poem I want to use. When I think of one poem, another idea keeps popping out. So far, I have 5 poems that I wrote to choose from and I like them all but before the end of today, I will need to think of one to turn in as homework and the one to submit for the contest.

          On one of Willi's Journal Post, he mentioned an anime Major and I always watch it on the weekends when it is on TV. It starts playing on Saturday and Sunday at noon and at night. The night version is an earlier version of the noon version. Like Willis, I really like the anime. This weekend, I did barely any homework that I should be doing this week. Also, a week ago, I bought the book, The Temporal Void for my brother and he finished it ! That book is thicker than The Fellowship of The Ring and he finished it in a week. I started The Fellowship of The Ring at least months ago and I am not even through it yet. I find that book really boring and slow moving but there are some parts that I enjoy more than others. Even though I enjoy some parts, I don't really enjoy most of the book so far. I've read more than half but not quite more than half just yet. I hope I can finish it soon and get on to some other more interesting books.

March 1, 2012

          Today during clubs (orchestra), I learned that we are going to perform in the Science Park place where we performed the Christmas performance. I am happy as well as sad when I heard the news. I am sad because we won't be going to the Chauda University's auditorium like last year. I had a lot of fun with Joseph exploring the whole place and there are still some unexplored places. However, in the Science Park auditorium, we won't be able to explore much because above, there's a restaurant which is other people's land and we shouldn't be poking our heads into such places. I am also happy that we are going to the Science Park auditorium because in my opinion, the space over there is bigger. By that, I mean we can wonder around all on the first floor but not in the auditorium and not outside on the streets so we won't get yelled at. If we can't run around, we can always find other things to play such as poker cards! I am a big fan of playing poker cards. I like playing poker cards from a young age since when I am young, my brothers are always at least 5 years older than me so whatever they do, I do the same or I tried. So, I learned how to play cards at a young age. Out of all the poker card games I play, I like Bridge the best even though it's very complicated and it's seldom played by young people nowadays.
