Taiwanese people will change their future today! Today is our presidential election! I am very nervous and excited! We have 3 candidates. Respectively, Li-luan Chu (Eric) who is Kuomintang (Chinese nationalist party), Lng-wen Tsai who is Democratic Processes Party, James C.Y. Soong who is People First Party. Nowadays, people hate Kuomintang (KMT) because Ying-jeou Ma did many wrong things, we think he is useless. He disappointed Taiwanese people, maybe only some rich companies will choose KMT, but I know that if you are a normal person, you want to change our future, you won't choose them again! But I do not think DPP and PFP are good, they just both are okay than KMT. Even though I concern our government so much, I still can not vote, that is the most sad thing! I couldn't go to vote until I turn to 20 years old, it is laws! I hate it :( Anyway, today is important day! Even if Taiwan is small, but I still believe it is a country, I am proud of I am a Taiwanese :)!

Taiwanese people will change their future today!

Today is our presidential election! I am very nervous and excited!
We have 3 candidates. Respectively, Li-luan Chu (Eric) who is Kuomintang (Chinese nationalist party), Ing-wen Tsai who is Democratic Processes Party, and James C.Y. Soong who is People First Party. Nowadays, people hate Kuomintang (KMT) because Ying-jeou Ma did many wrong bad/horrible things, we think he is useless (haha!). He disappointed Taiwanese people, maybe only some rich companies will choose KMT, but I know that if you are a normal person, and you want to change our future, you won't choose them again! But I do not think DPP and PFP are good, they just both are okay are both just a little better than KMT. Even though I'm concerned about (I'm concerned about/with something (adj.) or something concerns me (verb)) our government so much, I still can not vote, that is the most sad saddest thing! I couldn't can't go to vote until I turn to 20 years old, it is the laws! I hate it :( Anyway, today is an important day! Even if Taiwan is small, but I still believe it is a country, I am proud of that I am a Taiwanese :)! (I'm proud that I'm Taiwanese or I'm proud of being Taiwanese)

most sad / saddest
Short adjectives usually +er/+est
sad -> sadder -> saddest
happy -> happier -> happiest
cold -> colder -> coldest
cheap -> cheaper -> cheaper

Long adjectives usually use more/most
beautiful -> more beautiful -> most beautiful
intelligent -> more intelligent -> most intelligent
interesting -> more interesting -> most interesting
expensive -> more expensive -> most expensive

Very good topic Eva! I see Ing-wen Tsai won and the DPP has a majority in the legislature as well.  Perhaps you can write another notebook entry about how you feel about the result and how you think/hope the DPP will change Taiwan's future.

I am glad to see what you write. I understand you say you are a Taiwanese. Even you say you are not a Chinese, because it’s your own idea. Do you know Cai Kangyong? I think he is a Taiwanese, but when he host a TV show in Mainland China, he said “we Chinese…”. I want to know if you hate Cai Kangyong when he says he is a Chinese. I think you and me are all ordinary people, we cannot change the fate of a country, soemtimes we even cannot control the fate of ourselves. I don’t know if you pay attention to Syria. I know from Internet that Syria has been a beautiful country, but now, half of the country was destroyed, most of the people lost their homes, the airplanes throw bombs on their head everyday. Do you remember the photo of the little boy who drowed in the sea, and died on the beach? If I ask, who is responsible for this disaster? How would you answer? Sometimes mankind is foolish, everyone think he possess the truth, and then they fight, they hate, no friendship, no sympathy. I just want We Chinese, or as you say, “Taiwanese”, will have wisdom, not to hate and fight each other.

Hi, IAN T. I'm a Taiwanese not a Chinese. Fruthermore, I didn't mention I hate Chinese people or China this country. I just think Communist Party ruined many beautiful things in this world. China is a good country but their government isn't. I like China cultures and people or their TV show :) Some Chinese people are friendly and smart! KMT in Taiwan, just like Communist Party, isn't a good government. If they do well and love people instead of press people, maybe this world will change. People have rights, government can't deprive people's rights. :) that's all :) No offense, thank you for discussing this issue with me :D!!

I am supprised why some people hate China so much. Fruthermore, he who hates China is Chinese too. He writes Chinese, he speaks Chinese, even in his body flow Chinese blood. China is a great country, she has so long history, she has so brillant culture, she has so grand mountains and rivers, it’s how proud to be born of a Chinese. It’s so mean some politicians, just for their selfish purpose, cheat so many yound people to hate China, to hate their own country, to heat their own motherland.
