I was glad to come back to school on Wednesday to get ready for my third econ 382 test. I met a friend from SEEK program and he spoke fluent Fujinese. Although mine was nowhere compared to his, he was willing to converse and teach me words that I have either forgotten or didn’t know. We talked about what we wanted from our future and our holidays.

This week I was working really hard on a rough draft for my Chinese presentation. We will have to give a presentation of a summary and our opinion of a movie in Chinese. My partner and I chose Rush Hour because it’s a classic comedy about the adaption of a Chinese officer with American culture. After the revision from my teacher, I still had to work on it till Saturday afternoon.

12/4/10: After work I went to a friend’s house that is an aspiring chef and watched Entourage with her. Initially I was supposed to come set up the Wi-Fi but for some reason it was really hard. I couldn’t set it up so I started watching Entourage. I was hooked at first and watched two seasons of the show. After a while it started to get boring because it seemed to be the same repeating plot. My friend’s spaghetti that she made for me was amazing. She added basil from her little basil plant and mushroom to her sauce which made it the right taste and texture. I went home on the last bus from her house and I was outside freezing for nearly 15 minutes waiting for the bus. What a cold weekend this week! It’s finally cold huh?

Children now a day can sure amaze me. My brother was working on a project with his classmate over the weekend and this twelve year old was already taller than I am. When I was twelve I remember being very short and maybe owning my first black and white screened cell phone. My brother’s classmate owns a phone and an iPad. What a change in time. Last night my brother also asked me how to make a chart on Excel. I was astonished by how middle school students are adapting to the change in technological advances by keeping up with the times. There are many college students that just started learning Excel in college.

Is my mom learning how to control her temper? She has been very kind the last few days. This will be a start.
