winter time

        It's back to school time, I think that most of the students don't want to go back to school so soon, and have to face all of annoying college stuff, including me, haha. But before I talk about my days in this week, I want to share something I do in my winter vacation and the Chinese New Year.
        First thing I want to share is a cartoon called Adventure Time. It's really funny and cute cartoon will make you burst out laughing. However, I think that it's kind of cartoon for adults, just like the Disney movie" toys 3", because even the drawing is so attractive, there's  lots of metaphor in it and sometimes the quotes are pretty violent. 

       The second thing is that I go jogging in the afternoon everyday. Each day I run for about 2000 meters to strengthen my body, and make sure that I will not gain extra weight in the vacation, because you know, we eat a lot in the vacation and seldom do exercises. 
       The third thing, also the the last thing I would like to tell is that we played majong when my parents and I visited my grandparents' home during the Chinese New Year. When playing majong, my grandfather won a game that called 大三元碰碰胡+自摸. People who don't play majong may not understand what this title, but just know that it stands for a lot of money. My grandpa won about a thousand dollars in this game, that's pretty excited, crazy and extremely happy for him, but to others who played majong with him, it's the most awful experience they've ever have.

the horrible final exam


I’ve been thinking that there’s always plenty of time for me to prepare my final exam. I didn’t recognize that the final exam comes so quickly until this week. To be honest, I didn’t review all my school work, including subjects like Arabic history, Arabic writing and speaking, until this Wednesday.

After being lazy for several weeks, it’s been a both awful and horrible time to remember all these stuff and knowledge. I’ve been suffering studying the history of Arabic yesterday about five or six hours. When studying it, I found out that the ancient Arabs like to kill each other. I am curious about why did these Arabs feel so bored to do so? Killing each other or even murdering their relatives is not a interesting thing to me, and that didn’t make any sense. I’ve been confused that are these people insane or not.

Besides, while studying the writing and speaking part, it’s more simple and easy for me. So I’m not really nervous about testing these two things and do not prepare them as detailed as the history part. But to sum up, no students want to fail in exams, right? And I’m not an exception, so I wish my final exam can be done successfully.
