The Cheer Squad

This Wednesday I went to see the cheer squad practicing of the freshmen in our department. It makes me feel like going back to my freshman year. When I was in the freshmen year, we freshmen also had a cheer squad competition which is held because of the school anniversary. At that time, we practiced every night and we also spent some money on the guiding teacher. Now the freshmen have the same situation with us. While I was watching them, I really missed the freshmen year when we were preparing for the cheer squad competition.

I remember that I was very excited when I heard the cheer squad competition was coming. I had watched the cheer squad competition before on TV. I really thought that the cheer squad was very energetic and fantastic. It was a kind of healthy exercise and it contained a lot astonishing skills. Actually, I really love this sport, but the process of practicing the cheer squad was really exhausted. It was difficult for us to do the skills at first. Everyone felt stressful and we failed many times. Some girls even fell down from the top when they were raised up by the boys, and the boys really needs a lot of strength to hold the girls tightly when they were on the top of the boys. Even though it was really difficult, we all felt released and extremely happy when we conquered all the dilemmas. At the end, we didn't win the prize, but everyone did their best and we didn't blame on others. We were satisfied with ourselves and we did a really good performance.

The freshmen this year are going to have the competition on this Friday. I hope they can do their best and create an unforgetable memory in their college lives. Good luck and best wishes to them.

The pressure and duty of a leader

As I am a class leader and also the leader of cleaning education class, sometimes I really feel pressured and that really makes me exhausted. To be honest, I am a man who always makes myself so confused, and I usually give a lot of thought on all the issues in my live. Now I am quite wondering whether it is good for me or not.
You probably don't understand what is the cleaning education class. Let me explain it. Actually, it is a class for freshmen to clean our campus and I am their leader who instruct them to divide into several groups and supervise the freshmen when they are cleaning. But recently, I have faced a lot of problems, and they really bother me a lot. I meet almost the same problems on both two sides, the class which I belong to and the freshmen's cleaning class.
Everyone is an indivitual and people are different in many ways. As a result, eveyone has varied emotions and the ways that people think are also quite different. This is the reason that makes people only care about themselves. People become selfish and they don't care much about other people's feelings. And I am the victim under this kind of circumstances. When I am busy at working on the students issues, for examples, I have to hand in the document which needs everyone's signature before Friday, and I got those stuffs on Wednesday. I only have three days to finish it, and the difficulty is that everyone has taken the different classes, so we only have few classes that require every sophomore to take part in. It is hard for me to finish the job and there is even someone who always like to skip the class, so I cannot find him or her in the classes on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday. In order to finish the job on time, I have to make a phone call to ask him or her to come to the class. The same kind of situation happens in the freshmen. The only thing they care about is when they can leave, and if some of them finish their own areas, they just talk to each other and never help other people. Unless I ask them to do so, and they will do it reluctantly. But they don't give the thought that everyone cannot leave until all the works are done. If they can give others a hand, then everyone can leave earlier.
Now I am really thinking about myself. Of course that not everyone is so selfish, there are still other people who are willing to help and to stand in other's shoes. I really hate those people who only care about themselves. I am wondering that if the same situation happens again, I will leave those selfish people behind. In order to finish the job, maybe I should make myself a little bit selfish to those people who don't care about others. I shouldn't always be a nice guy, after all, I am not the great Jesus Christ.

Time is Money

As a sophomore, I find out that how to use the time efficiently becomes a really important issue in my life. I really feel that I am often running out of time. When I was still a freshman, there was always free time for me to enjoy myself and go out to play with my friends, but now it is luxurious for me to have valuable time to plan my own outdoor activities. My schedule is full of daily stuffs that I feel myself like a working machine. I can't let my brain take a rest because there are a lot of stuffs that I must remember clearly; otherwise, I will miss some important things. Even though there is more elective courses in the second year of university, the difficulty and quantity of the courses are increased. I have to spend much of my time studying the textbooks and making the reports. Besides, I have to work part-time job after class four times a week. Still, I have to prepare for the activities of the camp which is held by our department and finish the job of a class leader. I am really busy every day, sometimes I just want to get rid of every thing in my life and have a vacation in some other places. But I know this cannot be true, and I cannot just escape from my own duty. I must finish them and put everything in order. As a result, I have to use my time efficiently. I strongly realize what the saying"Time is Money" means. even though sometime I will still waste my time. Anyway, I am still learning how to use my time efficiently and make a plan for my daily stuffs. I can do quite better now, but not well enough.What's more, I am still trying to defeat my laziness and I know it very hard for human beings to conquer themselves, but I will do my best.^^

After reading the article"Without Emotions"....

After reading this article, I feel a sense of tension and fearness. I can even imagine the hard time during the world war. It seems that when the war breaks out, everyone has to be well-prepared to fight against the enemies, even the children who are still in their teenages.The auther tries to kill without emotions in order to combat in the war. I think a child's purity and innocence has been totally eliminated.There is no pity and compassion during the war time. Everyone fights for their own life.The relationship and friendship among people are no longer the value that people will care about.I can hardly judge whether this action "kill without emotions" is right or wrong because maybe I will do the same thing when I am involved in the war.I think I will do everything, even to kill the enemies , though they are also human,to protect my family and of course, myself.^^

My Pholosiphy of My Life

As the proverb goes "Practice makes perfect." This saying is rooted deeply in my mind. When I was a child, it was always a saying that my mother used to remind me whenever I felt tired of doing things hardly. As time goes by, I realize the importance of the saying and it instills into my mind and becomes one of my my life principles.
I was very interested in the music, especially the fantastic instruments. I always stared at the teacher who was playing the piano when I was in the kindergarten. As a result, I began to learn the piano when I was ten years old. At first, the teacher said that I had a great talent and a gorgeous sense in music, but I was insulted the next class. The reason was that I thought I was a music genius; therefore, I did not spent my time playing the piano after class. It turned out to be a mess the next class. After that, I made it a rule to practice the piano everyday after school. Since then, I always received high praise from my teacher and I did a really good performance on my piano concert. This case set a best example of the importance of the proverb "Practice makes perfect."
Even now, I always makes a lot efforts on everything that I am going to do. I will prepare for all the materials a few days ago before the due time and practice as much as I can. Although sometimes my hardwork does not lead to a successful achievement, I never give up. I always believe that the chance of success is for one who is already well-prepared.
