14th About the End of this Semester

It is almost the end of the semester. I am very happy and also kind of sad about this.
I am very happy because I learned a lot of thing during this semester's study, either in the ESL's writing class or in my other academic courses. I am very happy that I could get a approximately 3 weeks break after this whole semester's study. I am very happy that I could go back to China again in just one week, and I could see my families and many of my dear friends who did not choose study aboard like me.
However, every has two sides, I still have something not very happy at the end of this semester. Firstly, I think I didn't do my best in all my courses. I think I couldn't get a very good grade in my Plant Biology's class because I didn't really tried my best. I thought this class is so hard, and I kind of gave up at the very beginning. This is sooooo bad. Besides, I am also sad about that I may not going to see everyone in my writing class so often in the future. We have a very big campus here, and I know when we don't have a same schedule we can know see each other usually. I will miss all of my classmates.

13th About Procrastinate

Procrastinate, which means to put off intentionally and habitually -- from Merriam-Wabster online dictionary. The first time I heard this word was last year when I was taking the ESL level-3's courses. When the instructor presented and explanined this word to us, I immediately felt that this word is just describing me. I always like to do my homework at the very last minutes. This is really a problem bothering me. I sometimes couldn't finish my homework just because the procrastinating and although I finished my homework most times, they were not in a very high quality. I really need to change this bad habit especially in this important time, the final weeks.
Here is what I am gonna do for my nettlesome bad habit. First, I am going to make plan for the next every evening. I am gonna strictly following the plan I made. Secondly, I need to stop playing computer games immediately and stop watching TV shows every night. Lastly, I need to fellow all the above plans. I know this will really works.

12th The Final week is coming

How fast the time goes!!! It is already the last regular week of this whole semester! Just back from the Thanksgiving break, we need to get back to study immediately, cause the Final Week is coming!
Next week we have our last new stuff leaning week, than it is the time to test how good we have learned so far. I need to review all my courses in the next week in order to get a good grade in the finals. I have got three finals in the final week and a writing placement test. I have a lot stuff need to review in the next week!
Although the final week is kind of a bad thing, what make it not that bad is right after final week is the winter break which means I can finally go back to China to meet my family and my friends! This is so exciting! Fight for the Finals!

11th About the Thanksgiving

Finally the Thanksgiving is ended. We got back to school and return to study again. I had a really grate thanksgiving. I went to Washington and met several old friends. We went to many famous places like "The White House", "The Pentagon Building", Georgetown, and many other places in the day time. When the evening comes we went back to our hotel and play some card games. We had a really good time there. I already missed my friends even that I just came back from Washington. I miss the days we visited many museums, I miss the days that we play games together, I miss the days that we tried many different type of restaurants and "enjoy" many special foods. I really miss the days in DC, and I hope we can meet each other soon again, although I know that is really impossible.

Thanksgiving is coming!! This is a really good news for me. lol
I planed to go to Washington DC during this thanksgiving holiday. I have plenty of friends will go there meet together just one week later! I will meet my good friends soon. I am really excited about that. Some of them I haven't met since last year. I missed them so much. We already made a nice plan about what we are gonna do at DC. We even decided to go to a French restaurant to have a thanksgiving dinner there. We planed to have a traditional turkey dinner plus some amazing French dishes. I am really expect to have a grate dinner with them. Hoping the Thanksgiving comes sooner!!

Last week, we had our first essay dued already, and we begun our second one. I think the second one is pretty had. It is about that if a person could become a hero through sport. When I first saw the topic I thought it was easy. Because I like sports and I know a lot of sports stars. However, when I started wrote about it. I felt that I did not even really know what a hero is. I could hardly get any heroes in my mind when I just started. I felt MLK is one, but I thought a real hero in my mind must be someone who is perfect, and don't make any mistakes. But actually I knew that MLK had some kind of scandals when he became famous. I noticed that really, no one could be perfect. Everyone could make mistakes. A hero in a real world is a real person. He/she is not superman/superwoman or something else. People make mistakes. Than I suddenly noticed that a hero is just some who is really grate and did something that no one else could ever done, of course in a positive side.
This is basically what I felt when I got my second essay's topic.

About a famous chinese rapper

He is a great Chinese rapper. He is an ABC. He won a lots of rap battles in The U.S, even many black rappers could not beat him.

He is respected by even some professional American rappers. He is a legend. I think the most famous thing he did is he write the song, "Open Letter to Obama," to support Obama in the election, he wrote it he sang it and he put it on internet. The song become very famous, and one day he got an E-mail from Obama’s staff.They said tanks to MC Jin and than few months later, one week before the Obama’s New York speech, they connected him again. They asked him if he wanted to rap for Obama and introduce Obama before his speech.Of course he said yes, and than thousands and millions people saw him on TV and on internet. He became much more famous than before.

I heard him from my friend’s chat very long time ago. But I just listen to his song from a few weeks ago.I loved him just when I first heard his song. It was great. Than I watched a lot of his battle and concern videos.They are amazing. Especially the battle videos, when he beat the other rappers, I am so proud of him. I think he is the first Chinese who can do this, and may be even the first Asian who did this.He won lots of rap battles and even many Americans becoming his fans. They might do not know a lot of thins about China, but they know MC Jin.

He is the greatest Chinese rapper at least in my opinion!
