Good way for writing

If people want to learn a language well, they need to do well in listening, speaking, reading and writing. Which one is more important? I think all of them are important and each of them has its own function.

Listening and speaking are mainly for using, that is, in daily life communication is usual to learn a language. Reading can be used in book, newspaper and magazine. When you scan or skim, you need to use reading skills. And then, writing is usually used in academic paper or essay. For university students, writing is an essential part to master.

How to write well? No matter for native speaker or those people who are learning this language, they all need to think about! In my opinion, vocabulary, structure and editing are significant.

First of all, vocabulary is really basic for a student to write. If people want to write a vivid essay, they need to command more vocabulary. So they can use them flexibly. With some good vocabulary, the essay can become better. Moreover, the structure of an essay should be clear and coherent. If so, readers can get the meaning easily and fast. Therefor, when people write an essay they should try their best to make the structure easy to understand. What is more important, editing is an indispensable step for writing a good essay. Nobody can write a perfect essay at a time, so we need to edit for several times. During this process, we can find some mistakes and make it better.Anyway, if people want to write a good essay, they need practice more.

New semester~!

How time flies! Last long holiday has gone and a new semester is coming~
During last vocation, I did lots of interesting things. On the boxing day, I went shopping with my friends all day. It was really crazy! Although I heard lots of things on this day were very cheap before, I still cannot believe that there are so many people and so cheap stuff. Moreover, my friends who study in The University of Saskatchewan came to Calgary to have a visit. We had a great banquet on Christmas Eve. What a good moment! We talked a lot about our new lives in different universities and memorize some interesting things when we were in China. What is more important, I went skating in UC this holiday. I was so excited that it was the first for me to skate on the ice. Actually I did not know how to skate but after some practice I could it. I love this game and I believe I can do it very well in the further.
After a wonderful holiday, the new semester which is really important for me is coming. Because this semester is the last semester in EAP program so I must do very well to pass it.
I heard when you are in EAP III you must do your best, or you can not pass it before. Now I understand it exactly. There are lots of assignments and homework no mention to the exams. To be honest, I am a little bit worried about it. However, when I think I can go back to my hometown after this semester and the great life in the university, I am full of motivation.
I will try my beat!!!

My Parents

I have been here for more than three months, which means I have not seen my parents for a long time.
There is no denying that my parents are the two persons who I love most, I can not express how much I love them. They give me everything, everything and everything. I believe that is beyond description!
This is my first time to go abroad, also the first time to leave home for such a long way. Though I had ever studied in Ji Nan for two years, the distance between Ji Nan and my hometown is no more than five hundreds kilometers. Though the two years can be considered as a long time for adapting, my parents can not accept the fact that I will go to study in the other side of Pacific, especially my dear mother! I know that they miss me so much, so do I.
Even though I am far away from home , I can contact my parents frequently. I call my parents almost every day so that they do not worry about me too much. I tell them what I did these days, how I felt in a strange city, and what about my study. In addition, I also care my parents’ health, work and life.
Today we had a video in the internet. We were so happy that we could see each other again. We talked for a long time and saw each other’s faces, smile and emotion. What a happy time! We almost forgot we were in two countries.
Father and mother, I promise I will be better and better, at the same time I hope you take care of yourselves.

Crazy Moment

Last night I joined Den’s party for Christmas, all stuff there including chief, waiter, waitress, prep, dish washer. The atmosphere was really hot and everybody was so excited.
In the past Den’s party was held in Den, but this year it was held in another bar which was in downtown. Actually, I did not know where it was because I merely went to bar when I came here. However, I had chance this time~~~
At six o’clock, I met my friends in downtown and we eight people walked to the bar. On the way, we were talking all the time so we did not feel it was really far, although there were 10 avenues from C-train station. Our main purpose for this trip was to win the prizes, so we all expected.
When we got there, lots of people had been there. I saw some co-workers who dressed very beautifully. We said hello to each other and liked closed friends. In this occasion, everybody was all friendly and passional. We ate, drank and took photos with each other, the atmosphere was really good. The crazy moment was coming, we would see who could get the prizes. What a pity, I did not get it, but my friends got some, I am also glad for them.
What a crazy party! I can enjoy for a long time ~

New Life

I have been in Calgary for three months, maybe today should be celebrated~~~
Study
These three months can be considered as a three months for English studying. I study in EAP program in order to improve my English skills, including listening, speaking, reading and writing. Definitely I believe I have learned something there days. After all I contact English every day when I came here. No matter more or less, I speak and listen to English every day. This situation here is better than that when I was in China. Because I did not practice English much more in China, especially speaking and listening which are the most important parts in learning English. As to the good circumstance here, I should try my best to advance my English because I know that the more practices I do, the faster I improve.
Life
I think life in Calgary is more bored than that in China. Maybe because I just come here for a while or I have not adapted to this kind of life. Anyway, I still have some fun here. There are lots of activities, parties, and clubs in UC, you can enjoy whatever you want. I still remember those activities I have joined, like kick off, Halloween party and so on. What’s more important, I know some new friends here who are all interested and friendly. We have spent many good times together.
In a word, I will continue my story in Calgary~

Pizza Party

These days it is really cold in Calgary, the temperature has been 20 degrees bellow zero.Actually, I have not experienced this situation before. Although I heard it in China, I have not felt it so far. Now I got it—the real feeling. When you walk on the road, you face is tight when the wind blows and you need to wear hat, scarf and gloves. Maybe you eyes can only be emerged~~~
Although it was really cold outside, it could not reduce our passion. Because we had pizza party in EAP program today. After lots of assignments, we could have time to entertain and relax.
Noon is coming. Noon is coming.~~~we were hoping that all the time~~~
At 12 o’colck almost EAP students were standing in the corridor and waiting for the pizzas. It was supposed that the pizzas came from Den where I worked at. I was familiar with that how many kinds of pizzas there are and what materials use for pizzas. Because I did it by myself before so that I known whether it is delicious or not. I chose three kinds of pizzas which were delicious in my opinion. During the dinner, I took some photos with my friends and we talked a lot about our lives.
What a happy pizza party! I hope we can have more chances like this~~~

Den

So far, I have not written a article about my job, therefore I want to introduce my first job to everybody.
I am a person who hopes life can be substantial and does not like too much leisure. So I want to find a part-time job during studying. At the beginning of this semester, I knew that Den needed to hire some employees. So I went to Den and have a interview, at last I got this job.
At first, I was a dish washer because everybody needed to begin at the bottom~~~ I’m just kidding. Washing dishes is not difficult, and I just put them into machine after scouring them. Every Wednesday and Thursday I can be busy because there are some parties on the two days. At other times, that’s ok~~
After a couple of days, I did not wash dishes any more and prepared food. Every day there are lots of food needed to prepare, including onion, pepper, tomato and so on. Especially if there are functions, I need to cook many pizzas, fruit tray and cookies. Besides, every Tuesday I need to bake too many chicken wings in order to prepare wing night on Wednesday.
Sometimes I feel tired, but I enjoy it because I can realize real Canadian food and know some new people. I think this experience is important for me and I can learn a lot from my job!
