cartoon and animation




In my childhood, the best thing I liked to do was staying at home and watching lots of cartoons. Half of my childhood kept being companied by the cartoon and animation. There are lots of classical works remaining in my memory which most came from our country, the USA, and Japan. Those from our country mainly showed the traditional brilliant culture and history, the precious and noble moral character in order to educate the children, for example 《The magic pen and Ma Liang》,《The snowboy》; those from the USA often displayed the humor to please the public or satirize some kinds of peple and lives, for instance《Tom and Jerry》,《Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck》; those from Japan generally expressed the great love, the spirits of fight and competition to encourage the public include the children to make progress continuously, such as 《Saint Seiya》,《SlamDunk》and so on. A thousand thanks for all the hardworking staff of the cartoon and animation which had bestowed me a rich and colourful childhood. Now though I don’t watch cartoon anymore, when the great memory come out, I feel I am still very young and the life is nicer.

KOF




There was a popular game called " The King of Fighters " during my childhood. A lot of naughty boys swarmed into the rooms of electronic games after school and the majority of them chose to play the series of KOF. Some of the boys just wanted to kill time or look for the excitement and entertainment while the other of them were high skilled and good at controlling all of the roles in the game and each of them had the ambition to be the best player. What these boys were pursuing was to conquer all his opponents. The game was originally designed from a popular comic with the same name and it showed both the artistic charm of fighting and the bloody violence. In the society, all of us are walking on the battleground. Yes, we are fighters equipped with various arms composed of our intelligence, courage, health and others. Like those ambitious boys, what we are wondering all the time is that how to conquer others and overcome the difficulties. In our world, someone who is endowed with great success can be called the king of fighters. I also want to become the king of fighters not only in games but also in the society.

automobile...




When it refers to automobiles, I think almost every man will get excited. For women, autos may be just a kind of vehicles which can take people to somewhere instead of bicycles or walk. However, automobile are not only symbolize the vehicle, but also stand for men.
Automobile is the symbol of power, action, and passion. All these personalities are owned by men.
I like cars, especially sports car. When I was very little, the toys of mine were almost cars. I liked to put them in a line and push them one by one…hah…hah….it was my pleasure in my childhood. And now, automobiles became one of my hobbies. I like watching F1 and WRC games because I like listening to the sound of the engine and seeing the speed of the sports cars.
My favorite brand of car is Ferrari. There is a black horse on his brand and I think it means power. I like the classical color of Ferrari-Red. When I see it, I can feel the flowing of my red blood in my body and I can feel the passion of the car. I have a dream. That is I will own my own Ferrari in the future….hah…..

exercising


Yesterday I went to university’s gym to do some exercises. This was the first time I went to that gym. In my country, there were not enough gyms in the universities. It would also cost u lots of money. But here, it is different, thought we paid some fee at the very beginning of this semester, it is really very cheap.
What shocked me was that there were many instruments, like runner, tubbing, sit-up and so on. I was a little excited. I was doing exercises for about 1 hour. What’s more, I met a staff from my workplace. He was strong enough to fight with me…hah..hah…he was so kind that he taught me how to use these instruments and do exercises correctly. We talked a lot about our workplace and our boss…:-p
I have not done the exercises for a long time and I miss the gym which is near my home, in China. But now, I did not feel alone. I can go to the gym with my classmates who are also my best friends. Also we can make more friends when we are in the gym. How wonderful it will be!
As known to all, everybody will get an ache in the muscle after doing exercise, so will I. now I can hardly move my body…..

missing.....

Now I am sitting in the library, looking at some friends of mine, and thinking about much homework. To be honest, from the very beginning I came to Canada, I have never stopped missing my parents and friends…..can u imagine, all most every night the dreams of mine were about my parents and my friends.
As known to all, the Christmas Day is coming and that means every family in Canada will join together to have a great dinner and talk to each other. They must be very close and love each other. The different between Canada and China is that Canada has Christmas day and China has Spring Festival; however the two festivals have the same meaning. They both stand for the reunion of the whole family. Nearer is that day getting to me, more do I miss my family members. Because I cannot go back home to meet them. In China, we wear new clothes, fire fireworks, eat palatable dinner and receive lucky money at that day. To be honest, I am sure I will be a little sad and feel lonely on this year’s spring festival.
Though I can use MSN and QQ(another communication tool which is very popular in China) to talk with my parents and my best friends, I can’t help missing them.
What’s more, I miss all the Chinese food. The first thing I go back to China is to eat all the traditional food with my relatives and my friends. When these come to my mind, I can brace myself up and study extremely hard. My dear classmates, if u want to come to China, I can take u to many restaurants to enjoy the world’s most delicious food!

my favourite...

IF you ask what my hobby is. I will answer very quickly. The answer is soccer, soccer, soccer. When I was very young, to be honest, I did not like it. When I watched the soccer game I would get the headache….hah hah….i didn’t understand why the soccer was so popular. Can u imagine? Time told me the reason. Gradually, I love soccer more and more and actually I did not know why. From I was very little; I played soccer with my friends, and knew lots of new friends because of soccer. And I also watched soccer games on TV. I knew lots of famous soccer players at that time. But when I saw David Beckham at the first time, I was attracted by him. I still remember the goal which made him famous. It was so splendid and he was so smart when he got that goal. What’s more, he was so handsome. From that time on, I knew he was my idol in my life. Because of him, you can guess out which football club is my favorite team. That is true. MANCHESTER UNITED MANCHESTER UNITED which is called RED MONSTER by her fans. Because their shirts are red. She got many champions in her history and trained many famous players, like Bobby Charlton, David Beckham, Gary Neville, Ryan Giggs, Paul Scholes and so on….I knew Amin was also a fan of Man.Utd. we felt happy when we talked the great soccer club. I love Man. Utd-red monster because I have the red blood!

recently

the life is watery. nothing happened and nothing began. BUT now, i remember the word which Forrest Gump said:"life is like a box of choclate, you will never know what you wanna get."
I know my hair is a little long. Almost everyone who met me would said it to me. I want to have my hair cut. But I am afraid that no barbers can cut it well in Canada. Last time I had my hair cut was in China at the end of autumn. That barber said I should not have it cut because he considered it might be becoming when I had a long hair. I think so but I do not like long hair! Sometime I want to cut all my hair….i am afraid it can scare others…..
We set a small party a few days ago just because last Wednesday was Shila’s birthday. All of us were greedy and we went to a Chinese restaurant and then we went to the pub in UC-Black Lounge. That is true. That is where I work at. We ate about 40 more wings that night haha….but only cost me 10 dollars! Happy birthday to Shila…
What’s more, I love the wings with salt and spicy….^^

Robbed in Calgary

Yesterday was a memorable day in my life and in my friend’s life. My friend Dreamson was robbed by two strong men in downtown. What a terrible thing it was!
He lived together with me and he went out to his friend’s home to joint a party yesterday’s afternoon. He said he would come back at about 11pm. But he did not come back yesterday. I thought that maybe he drunk a lot and had been sleeping in his friend’s home. I thought that was the reason why I tried to call him but nobody picked the phone up. I did not put this thing in my mind because I felt relieved about him and I trusted Calgary’s public security. So I went to bed at about 12o’clock. What shocked me was that he did not come back when I should go to university!! It was 10:00am!! I tried to call him but the phone was still not picked up. I felt nervous and a little scared. So I cannot pay my whole attention to my class today. At noon, he called me back eventually and he said he was robbed yesterday’s mid-night in downtown. Those two robbers pointed a knife on his pit of the stomach and let him take out all the cash. OMG!! OMG!! Fortunately he was not hurt by those two robbers. They just robed above $100 from him. But I can image how scared he felt. He stayed in the police station last night. He never came across this case, so did I. I am comforting him now and he become calm gradually. I am sure he will not walk on. Form now on, I think Calgary is not very safe, especially in the downtown…..I hope I won’t hear this case in the future……

something....

U know, I have got a job in the university. Every weekday I went to work after finishing my class. Although it is very busy everyday, I like it. Just because I like colorful life. I can not only earn some money from it, but also I can got lots of experience.
At the very beginning, I was arranged to wash many dishes. Sometimes there were lots of dishes and sometimes there were even no dishes to wash. When there was a party, I would be very busy and have a terrible night.
But a couple of days ago, my boss told me not to wash dishes. He let me prepare cook for the kitchen!! How wonderful it was! Maybe I thought it was due to my hardworking. How happy I felt! I finally kept far away from dirty dishes and mess sauce! A new work was waiting for me! Thank my boss! Thank my parents! Thank my fans! Thank goodness!
However, u cannot imagine that the second day of my new work. There was little work to do. And one imposing staff said to me: “ Can you do me a favour?” I said yes and followed with him to a huge hall on the 3rd floor. There were many tables and chairs in it and he asked me to help him take all of them to the 1st floor. Crazy task!! Some partners and I finished it difficultly. And I hope I won’t do that in the future.

HELL

Can you imagine? The first month of mine in Calgary is a little terrible.
I found a room for rent for myself and I moved into it from a home hotel. I considered I eventually had a stable place to live and I was very happy at the beginning of September. Because the rent of the room was not very high, the room had a commodious space for me, and the most important thing, I thought, was that the distance from the house to school was not very long. I should just take 6 minutes bus and then transfer to the C-Train to arrive at the university. I thought the room was fitable for me. Everything seemed to go well.
BUT BUT BUT, after a few days living there, I found that what I thought in the past was not true. The landlord did not turn on the central heating for me. The temperature of the room was at only 14 centigrade!!! It was like that I lived outside the house!! The most terrible thing I saw was that the landlord and his wife often fought with each other. Their loudness made me not pay my whole attention to my study. One day I even saw the woman wanted to take a kitchen knife to chop at his husband. HOW TERRIBLE IT WAS!!!! You cannot imagine World War happened everyday!!

New Way

Time pasts very fast. I was in China one month ago but now I am in the beautiful city, Calgary. Very excited, right?Calgary is a vital city full of a lot of friendly people. It has very developed transportation, fresh air, clean water and something else I cannot see in my hometown. Everything here is new to me. You can imagine that one person who is in a completely different atmosphere, different language and entirely unfamiliar people is a terrible hard time at the very beginning. However, you have to face all the difficulties, right? So, be strong and be a true man. These experiences can make my life colourful. I was very excited and a little scared.
I can remembered the first few days at the very beginning when I came to Calgary. I opened my bank account, registered in the university, found somewhere to live, and choosed a cellphone plan. I was extremely busy. I did all the things by my own. I did not feel tired. On the contrary, I was very contented because I made many small achievements. Now, I have already fit for the life in Calgary and I love studying and living here.
