Good morning everyone. I am writing my diary while riding the train. This week, I am going to write about what I am studying at university. When I was a high school student, I had not decided what I would like to do in the future. At least I was interested in foreign countries and travel. And that time, my university had just built a new campus at Minato Mirai. In addition, it is close to my favorite professional baseball team's stadium. Currently, I am a second-year university student. I'm studying languages such as English and Chinese. Moreover, tourism and culture. I don't regret choosing this university.

Xu Xiake, a famous geographer in the Ming Dynasty of China, spent over 30 years traveling almost half of China. He visited many remote areas by trekking. He recorded his observations and research results in detail, providing valuable information for future generations. He corrected the mistakes of river sources in the document through practical investigations. Besides, he detailed the influence of landforms, climate and other factors on plants. He also vividly described the famous historic buildings and local customs. His records were collected by future generations and made into the book The Travels of Xu Xiake which had a wide effect both in China and abroad.

In my opinion, I believe, that every single person on Earth is responsible for reducing the impact on the weather. If you're saying I don't have an impact on the environment, let me tell you something, you're a factor because even when We use the bathroom we're using tons of clean water. When We buy clothes we are doing the same thing...we have to reduce our own impact to support the planet

A baby's birth is usually the most exciting thing for a family in my country. You can imagine an anxious future father walking back and forth in the aisle of a hospital with many expectations. Will it be a boy or a girl? Who will it resemble? In their mind, it's a sacred time in their lives. So, many baby welcoming ceremonies were created in my country. Different places have different customs. In my hometown, when a baby comes back from the hospital, his or her grandparents usually make a fire near their apartment and require the baby's father, holding the baby, to go through the fire. They believe that a fire can keep all the bad luck far away from the baby. No matter, if a fire really works or not, the love from all the family members can be the most important treasure for a new baby. At that moment, a baby's birth usually means the responsibility for a couple. More patience and more diligence are needed for them, a bright future is also waiting for them. Everything is amazing at that moment.

Yesterday, I thought about my perfect day in English class. I think my perfect day is when I can take action in the morning. Today, I could do that! Because I had a part-time job in the morning and I woke up at 7 am. After I woke up, I hung up the laundry and got ready to go to work. I had enough time, so I ate breakfast. Even though it was a weekday, I was busy with my part-time job and it was tough. So, I washed tableware. After finishing my part-time job, I went shopping and went home. Now, I have to do my assignments but I don’t feel like doing them.😱 I plan to slowly complete my assignments while eating the donuts I bought. Once I finish my assignment, I feel like I'm getting closer to a perfect day. So, I will do my best for my perfect day.👍

Hello. Today, I will talk about a place that I want to visit before die. Because I had time to think about this topic in class the other day. I want to visit Finland. I have three reasons. First, I want to see the aurora borealis. I would like to see those beautiful landscapes. I had watched on the news that Finland has a high chance of seeing the aurora. Particularly, the recommended seasons are autumn and spring. In addition, aurora can also be seen in Canada and Alaska, but the observation time was very late at night. However, we can see it as early as 9 am in Finland. Second, if you are in Finland, you can meet Santa Claus. Finland is famous for having Santa Claus, and if we go to Lapland, we can meet him all year round. I haven't seen him since I was born, so I would like to see him someday. Third, I want to eat Finnish cinnamon rolls. Previously, when I saw Finnish cinnamon rolls on TV, I thought they looked delicious. For these reasons, I want to visit Finland before I die.

The Qinghai-Tibet Plateau is located in the southwest of China, with an area of around 2.3 million square kilometers and an average elevation of more than 4000 meters. It is known as the Roof of the World. The plateau has abundant natural resources, beautiful scenery and a variety of rare wild animals. The Qinghai-Tibet Plateau is covered by vast areas of glaciers because of its extremely low temperatures. It is the birthplace of many famous rivers in Asia and the main source of water supply in China and Southeast Asia. It is vital to the global ecosystem. The glaciers of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau are melting at an accelerating rate due to the effect of climate change. China has been making great efforts to protect the plateau's ecosystem. The grass coverage rate has been increasing and many endangered species have been better protected.

If I have the opportunity, I walk on the treadmill while I watch a TV series on a tablet. it's actually the only time I can watch a complete episode without being interrupted. And I also like to doodle if I have a piece of paper.
