Baking cake~

Today I baked a cake. It was very interesting (enjoyable?). When I was a kid, I enjoyed baking but at that time then I can't couldn't make cakes very successfully. Right now, I have finally find found out why I can't wasn't succeeding. I am so happy now. In the future, I want to make a lot of desserts.

Chinese Spring Festival

As we know We just came through Chinese Spring Festival. In my opinion, just as Thanksgiving is important for America, Chinese Spring Festival is also an important days celebration for China.
Every year around 1 January on the lunar calendar, China welcomes the biggest traditional festival. All the people have days off to go back to their hometown to get together with their families. And even in the same country, some customs differ from other districts. However, in my home there aren't so many traditions. In the last hours of a the year we usually gather playing cards with other families, watching Spring Festival Gala Evening on TV, sharing experiences with each other and of course we have delicious meals in which dumplings is are essential.
I had 7 days off this time. And I met many friends who I don't have many chances to meet. There are some friends whom I hadn't seen even for about 7 years. I experienced lots of precious time with my family and friends.
I wish all people a Happy New Year!

Well done Lily, and a Happy New Year to you! We enjoyed Chinese New Year here in Bristol too - we watched a traditional fan dance, a Kung Fu demonstration and a traditional Lion Dance at the Bristol museum.

TV has a lot of benefits

After school, what I like doing is watching TV because it provides a lot of benefits. Firstly, it has a lot of interesting programs for me to relax after working hard, such as: music programs, cartoons, films. I like watching cartoons the best because they are very humorous and funny so I forget about feeling tired.
Secondly, it teaches me a lot about science, nature and society. Furthermore, it is a good source for me to learn many languages around the world like: English, Chinese, Japanese. Importantly we can learn without having to pay much money.
Last but not least, it provides a varied source of information. By watching TV news, we can get lots of news from all over the world. We also receive current information in the fastest way, such as: the weather forecast, news of disasters and sports matches. In summary, because of its benefits , TV will become my companion.
