Pine Valley

-
This Wednesday, the school organized the trip to Pine Valley. On 10 am, we left on time. It was a sunny and windy day.

On the way to the destination, I saw so many cows and sheep. I also saw the river when we nearly arrive the location. So, when I got off the van, I had destination to go. I really like the water and stream. I felt calm down and comfortable when I stayed there. It was a good place to avoid hot. Cool wind came to my hug. Afterwards, we tried to find the other side of river. Then, we found a forest. We can smell the fragrance of the pine. That let us feel relaxed and easy.

I liked to photograph the water. This place was satisfied my acquirement. I also took so many photos. Excursion also is good way to exercise. And we can find some interesting things and feelings.


I loved this place. It was a wonderful trip experience.

Today, at 10 am my classmate and I went to the Farmer Market. It set up in the main street, it is closer to the SUU. When I got there, there were lots of people gather there. It is my first time to the farmer market. It not only sold fresh vegetable but also sell food and drink. I bought honey and smoothies. They are delicious! At the same time, I went to Pizza Hut, it is popular in my hometown when I was young. I often went to this restaurant in China. However, I didn't try this in the USA. We ordered double flavors of chicken wings. I didn't see these dishes in China. I love them. Taste good! I prefer bone-out because it is easy to eat. I also found a personal size pizza, I can choose the topping and sauce. That's good and interesting. I also didn't see this dish in China. Overall, it is a wonderful lunch and not expensive. The same restaurant has differences in different countries. I should accept people have different traits, there will not have two same leaves...

WHY THE PENCIL IS PERFECT I watch this video about pencil. The presenter thought pencil is perfect for her. She talked about the history about the pencil and her feeling. I like TED this series, small thing big idea. These presenters found some unimpressive things in life for most people. At the same time, they can find the soul of these items. They are all good at living I think. This video said that the way to make pencils never change until now. The pencils are graded on through four for different hardness. Number two being the ideal hardness for general use. In life, I usually use it for exams. Originally, when pencils were handmade, they were made round. It's hard to make. Afterwards, American invested the machine to make pencils and make a standard for them. So today's pencils are all hexagonal. In the end, the presenter said "there's nothing that can be done to make the pencil better than it is." This series video can help me quickly know the history o...

Last Tuesday at 9 am, I interviewed professor Robb McCollum in General Classroom. First, I asked some questions about his background. He is the professor at ALCC and also is the leader of ALCC. He got a Ph.D. in TESOL and Instructor psychology. He also has two children. In my opinion, he can be considered a successful person. I divided success into three parts. Academic and career, personal, service to others. He had achievement in his academic career, he was kind and patient in his personal success. In addition, as a teacher, the purpose is to help students to learn new knowledge. I was curious about his opinion about whether he is a successful person. He thought service to others is the most important one. He said: "You can do No.3(helping others) very well if you don't also have the other two." He thought these kinds of people also can be considered a successful person. In his opinion, the successful people should be patient and persistent. Actually, through the conve...
