This saturday The coming saturday is a big day for me. I have to get a higher score in my ILTS test, in order to transfer into another school. I am going to have the IELTS test this saturday, but I dont think I am totally ready yet. especially at reading part. I hate to do reading and I am really bad at doing reading. I can sure about my Oral test and listening part. About writing? It can't be too bad, I think. Any way, there are still two days before it starts; I will do my best to pass it.

My poor book I didn't know what happened to me on thursday. Thursday's schedule is the most full one. On this moirning I have to get up at half past five for school, so I always don't have enough time to prepare my breakfast and lunch. Thisi time, after drunk a cup of milk, I had to run to the bus stop. And the class was started from half past eight to one pm without any break. I was starving after my pronounciation class, but still had to present in the next class. After school, I didn't feel hungry any more then I just went to the trainstation and went home directly. But I had a strong feeling which something in my bag was missing. I checked all my porkets and my bag then i found that my Grammar book had lost. I feel shame about this and I think I need to take a long time to forgive myself, my careless. This is never happened beofre, maybe I just a bad student.

I have a cold The waether of Holland is really cold for me. I am from the south of China, so the waether in my city is very nice. Short winter and hot summer. I like summer very much, because I don't need to wear s much clothes. And can enjoy the sunshine. The day before yesterday, I missed my first train then I had to wait for another one for hafl an hour. It was cold to death. And now I have a cold from waiting the train. How nice, isn't it?

The two different time in China China has two different time, western time and Moon time. This confuse a lot of foreigners. They said: how come this earth has two times at the same time, its too confused. If you ask me, I dont know how to expplain too. My parents only wrote down the moon time when I was born. Sometimes even I confuse too, becaue I dont know when is exactly my birthday. Because of the influence of the western cultures, more and more Chinses young people forget the moon time slowly. For instance, today exactly is the Lantern festival, but I didnt notice that till one of my classmaters asked me,whether remember eating dumplings. Fortunately, I did make dumplings and some other very nice food together with my friend's family, so what a coincidence. This is really make me think. I think I need to pay a little more attention to my own country too. Sharing more god things with my foreign friends and learn their cultural at the same time.

confuse about myself I am a positive person, or maybe I should say because I am too positive to accept upset things in my life. Since I came to Holland, I am not that happy as when I was in China. I have no idea why. Sometimes I feel life is boring and I feel sad for no reason. I am doubting myself now, am I mad? Or I think too much; or maybe I miss too mcuh happy time in my life. I always feel tired for no reason, or maybe has a reason, it is because I am sitting too much without doing any exercise for too long. Maybe yes, maybe no, I doont know too. But I will do some something to change this is kind of position. Trying my best to make myself happy again. Or find another way to enjoy the life here.

First notebook entry: Introducing myself When I was still in China my maijor was English. And now I am in Holland to do further study. My English is not good enough so I want to improve it, especially my vocabulary. I like English and I like to make friends with foreigners from all over the words. I am studying Dutch too. I hope it won't too difficult.
