A summary.

Well this week passed away fast.
I have been sick for the whole week. My throat hurts so that I can not sing during chorus and the musical practice. Time passes really fast whenever I actually sing instead of sitting in the chorus room and doing nothing besides looking around.  I tried new hair style today, not too bad! 
I want to talk about my academic life. I was so mad today because of my English test, I did it badly without a doubt. I do not understand why the heck I should know the reason for the death of the author's wife!! Does it make sense at all???  NO! It does not!!!! OK, deep in my heart I admit all of the questions from the English test make good sense, I am mad because I did not work hard, did not review the key points with a passion, and did not have time for a quite nice review since I spent all my time on playing computer. Dear me, I really should get rid of my bad habits. I can not do this, this isn't right. I need to study hard, and I have to do whatever I tell myself to do. 
Today after school I talked to Star about future colleges, jobs, and potential students. I realized how far I was from my bright future.  Star told me that there was a boy who goes to Harvard for free and had not depend on his parents since he was a freshman in Stanford. This ashamed me for I have never thought of taking care of myself economically and mentally even now I am about turning 18. Meanwhile I am complaining how careless my dad treats me, how HARD it is for me to read a book in a certain time, how hurtful it is for me to lose a boy who had a potential to become my boyfriend, and how unbelievable it is for me to recite all SAT words. This is crazy. What was I doing??? I was doing nothing except for wasting my time and my parents' money. Come on I can keep doing like this anymore. America is not just about enjoy comfortable high school life,  something else is out there. So stop complaining, and do your work!!
For the boy, oh boy I give up. What is wrong with you??? Mother-in-law? That is so freaking stupid. Well I hope you get your best girl friend ever from your countless love experiences. If she is not the one, well sadly you have to keep working on finding  yourself another true mother-in-law! Good luck.
Ah I forgot to mention that TANGLED is a great movie!! Indeed it is a fairy tale. However, I do believe that Eugene and the princess(sorry I forgot her name) live a happy life forever. So I don't understand the witch at all, even if she was the most beautiful woman ever, is she happy after all? Doesn't she afraid of losing her flower all the time? Isn't she tired of trying to do everything to stop the girl from leaving the tower? How can a life fulfilled with horror and nerve be a good one? She does not have a heart.
There is a Christmas concert which will be performed by our band and chorus on Sunday in Bishop McCort auditorium. I really hope my throat would heal before the performance. Let us see what is going to happen. 
HAVE A NICE WEEKEND.

Everything starts from now on.

 Because of my friend, Anniina, I start to write my blog. I am such a lazy girl who can not keep doing a specific thing for a long period of time, but I will try not to give up writing the blog. 
  One year ago I made up my mind to give up everything I had in China and decided to come to America for my entire high school and college year in the U.S.. every one of my friends and my family thought it was such a big decision while I thought that was not a big deal. But unfortunately life in a foreign country is never easy, especially America is a country which is so far away from my homeland. I realized the circumstances at once when I got off the plane. The strangeness and the difference which appeared to me had overwhelmed me like flood had crushed Johnstown.
  However, the memories of the first day of school, the first time of skiing, the first time of swimming, the first time of seeing such heavy snow, and all my first times in America can not be remembered clearly by me anymore. I think it is just right for me to write something about my long long journey in America. And maybe years later it will still bring me the same feelings I had had years ago, who knows? I would like to try.

Anniina is a girl from Finland. We met each other from a trip to NYC. Well actually a night before the trip is more correct. I love her. I love her musics, her arts( btw she draws beautifully), and her personality. Both of us love Celine Dion and Audrey Hepburn. She recommended a song called Butterfly by Rajaton band and I adore the music. I literarily listened to the song all the time since then. I went to the NYC trip last year as well, but I prefer and appreciate the 2010 one. For I met this wonderful friend that I hope and believe our friendship will last as long as we could imagine. 3650 days till!!! lol.

This was taken in a well known restaurant in NYC. I forgot its name though.

This indeed is my favorite picture. Shining faces!

    Weekend is always lovely and precious. I will be very busy tomorrow so I better go to bed now. Good night.
