You know what I mean!

Have you ever been through a stituation that while you are talking about something, but your friends are answer with a totally different thing. It is possible to happen and you might even didn’t notice until both of you told each other what you are talking about. The story below is actually having the situation I just said, let us see how interesting it is and how is it still make sence to each other.

Andy and Jason are high school boarding students. Andy was sitting in the common room and watching TV. Then Jason came in and said "How is your day, bro?"
Andy answered "Pretty good, I just have my Chemistry test done."
Jason "Really? Then you can enjoy your weekend I guess."
Andy "Yea, but I still have something need to do."
Jason "Like?"
Andy "College...I don't really want to talk about this right now."
Jason remember that yesterday was the day that the result for college early decision will came out. Then from Andy's tone, he thinks maybe Andy didn't accept by his dream college.
Jason said “It will be fine, it doesn’t mean you don’t have chance.”

Andy ”I know, but I just don’t know why it will happen. I’m sure I check everything before I send my application and everything is perfect, but….”

“Well, you can’t change anything right now, the only thing I suggest to you is look forward. When God closes a door he always opens a window.”

“I think you are right, I should just take a new photo right now!”

Jason confus asked ”Wait, take a photo?”

Andy answer ”Yes, I think the photo I send through the application is awful. I almost think the college won’t accept me just because the photo, but I’m glad I still accept by BU.”

Jason think in his mind”OMG! I can’t believe I misunderstood the idea whole time, but he still can response my idea even though we are talking different thing."

“I’m glad you get accept, maybe we should order pizza to celebrate.” said by Jason

“I think that will be a good idea, because I’m so hungry right now!”

If I am Charlie Brown

The most interesting character I like in the video is Charlie Brown. The Eason why I like him is because he use a lot of "If I" and "I should" in his writing. I think this is a repetition, because he repeat this same word over and over again. However, I didn't feel any tired about his writing. Even more I think it is very interesting because this will make the audience remember what he said. He also use solution or what he think will happen after he use "If I" and "I should". It make the writing become more smooth  and having connection between each sentence. These are the reason why I think Charlie Brown is the most interesting person in this video.

How to write?

Those two paragraph are talking about how to write good writing. Each of them are wrote by same author but telling different idea. One is talking about the 13 rules that one writer should follow when the write. Another one is talking about some idea you can think about while you write. For the 13 ways of writing, it told people that there is nothing right or wrong on writing. You can did whatever or however you want because you are the author. People won't care about whether your writing are strange or disagree with their thought. As long you are the author, no one will say anything about your writing. 
Another writing is talk about what is a good writing and a good writing is like something else. To write a good writing is not a difficult thing, it didn't require fantastic grammar or miracle vocabulary. A good writing can be very simple, brief to the point. It didn't need to be a long essay or multiple evidences to support your idea. Writing a good writing can be similar to doing something else. For example, it said good writing is like math or good teaching...etc. This mean write a good writing is not difficult, but it is base on whether you think it is a good writing or not.
Both are them for me are very useful because I am one type of person that didn't think a lot before or while I am writing. These two article did give me a lot of idea about writing, such as a good writing didn't nessecery have to include tons off evidences. To write a good writing only need the author think they are writing a master piece every time when they write. This is why right now I will think more about the writing before I actually write it. It will help my writing become more organized and more smooth.

Grade for my food

After compare my essay to the TOEFL rubric, I think I might get a 3 on my writing. The reason why I will say that is because I am confident with my introduction this time. I have a interesting hook at the beginning and a pretty well thesis at the end of the intro. Then I provide 4 evidences to tell the reader the information about the food and the meaning to me. Pretty strong and descriptive language in the body paragraph. At the end, I conclude all the information that I wrote in the body paragraph and use a closer to end this essay.

MY GOAL

Tomorrow will be the end of the first semester, which mean my junior year have been go over half year already. This tell me that the day of decision will be coming soon. I still remember at the beginning of the school year I set up few personal goal to challenge myself. I think now is the time to check what kind of goal did I achieve.
The first goal is getting a good score on SAT/TOEFL. From the PSAT score that I took in October I found out that I still need to work more hard on it. The result I got was not really well and at first I thought I could get a better score than this, but the truth told me that I’m thinking too much. The cruelty of the real life tell me that thinking good is not enough, you will only get how much you paid. This PSAT score just like a hammer and help me to wake up, I need to stop playing that much video game and do something that is useful for my life. This is why I start to do some changes to my lifestyle. I start to memorize SAT vocabulary everyday, because I know that I’m doing pretty bad on the writing part. The main reason is because I didn't know many vocabulary, so by memorize SAT vocabulary can definitely help my writing become more vivid and interesting.
Beside the SAT goal, I also set a goal is that I want to make more friends than last year. I did a really good job on this goal because right now I have many friends whom come from all over the world. I could learn their culture from all of them, such as their dress, music, food...etc. This help me to learn more about other countries, so that I can talk with them comfortably without saying  something not appropriate in their culture and will make them angry.
One goal I didn't mention in the beginning of the school year was become more mature. In most of the people mind, they still think me as a kid and all I want is playing. This year give me a lot of challenges that I never have before, and those challenges can only bear by myself. This form an invisible pressure cause me can’t sleep well every night when I came back from winter break. Then I think now would be the time for me to become more mature. I should not keep playing that much because this year might be my most important year that I ever have. Just like my parents said “After this year when you get into a good college, you can do whatever you want!” Maybe my parents was right, I have the responsibility to not let my parents disappointed. Now is the time to prove them I could get into a college, I can get into a college that better than my brothers did. I will show them I am the best in my family!
