    Once I browsed books at the Estate Bookstore. I got a glimpse of a book entitled, “Secret.” Out of Curiosity, I opened the book and read a line, “Many celebrities know this secret, and they succeed.” After reading for a while, I realized that if I keep working toward my goal and hold an image of the bright future, I can achieve it. Many celebrities think positively and have the bright image in their heart.

    Another main subject of this book is that action speaks louder than words. Therefore, I adjust my schedule. For example, I wake up early than I did and study math effectively every morning. Much to my amazement, I do well in math tests more often than before.

    I am delighted finding the secret of improvement. After the adjustment, such as waking up early, I am more efficient than before. Thank to this book, I cultivate good habits and see things with a different kind of view.

The surroundings are alive with trees, flowers and birds. Every morning I wake up, I inhale fresh air and see delights, including flowers dancing in the wind, birds chirping on the tree and butterflies chasing in the garden. These are my spirit lifters. Therefore, I have fallen in love with nature from my childhood. Furthermore, there are lots of reasons why I love Nei-hu.

There are many kinds of shops, which sell foods, clothing, etc. The food shops come in a variety of choices which include a large range of prices. For example, my family goes to eat beef-noodle for 70 dollars per bowl. Every weekend, however, I go to eat seafood, which cost me 200 dollars each serving, to satisfy my appetite. On the other hand, much to my delight, I can buy clothing near my house, instead of going far distance to downtown.

There are three schools around my house. Therefore, I chose the nearest one, and thus I could sleep until seven o’clock before I was fifteen years old. In my childhood, I often went hiking with my parents. We went to the Jude Lake in the morning.

It is very convenient that the bus terminal is near my house. Moreover, the tunnel has been built and the MRT station has been building. In the near future, it will be more convenient than now. I am looking forward to that.

Dear Diary,

   We will get the entrance exam result next week. In seven days, I have to face the real results. In other words, whether I did well or badly, I have no regret because I did my very best. Now, instead of pulling a long face, I will prepare for the next exam with determination.

   Few classmates are not preparing for the next exam because they assume that they would get a higher score on the first exam. I have to keep my own pace and don’t sway my determination. However, much to my delight, most of the classmates continue to prepare for the next exam like me. Therefore, we always encourage one another with inspiring stories. During the break, we shoot the breeze to relieve pressure. Last Friday, my teacher told me,” Don’t lower your goal owing to the obstacles.” I am deeply convinced to his words and I will continue to work hard.

On April 22 last year, our whole school went on a graduation trip. On the windy afternoon, my classmates and I went to the beach on the southwest part of Taiwan. It was a very unique experience, for I have never been to the beach with the whole school before. I had many friends to keep me company. The beach was full of young people and the laughter was continuous.
 My classmate, Bug, drew some characters on the sand. We left lots of footsteps beside the characters. At the same time, I took my camera out and took many pictures with all my classmates. The picture I put on this blog is my favorite. To my delight, I kept all the memory by taking the pictures. That is the most memorable tour I have ever had.

    In the English class last week, the bald teacher was teaching as usual. The examination day was around the corner. Every student studied hard except Joseph. It was normal that Joseph never stayed awake in such a boring class.

   After a long while, Joseph dreamed that he was teaching Grammar on the platform after twenty years but all of the students fell asleep. He was sorrowful because he taught hard while the students did not appreciate his hard work. Even though he spoke louder and louder, the students were still sleeping like logs.

    Suddenly, he knew that he had dreamed a terrible dream. Accordingly, he realized how a teacher felt when his student fell asleep in class. Meanwhile, he decided to work hard with determination. He didn’t want to depress his teacher. Much to the teacher’s delight, Joseph knew the importance of hard work. Best and happiness of all, Joseph becomes much more hardworking than he was.

    It was on Joseph’s birthday and he got a puppy as birthday present. He was radiant with happiness. His classmates and family threw him a birthday party. The atmosphere is harmonious. The most lovable present is the puppy named Joy. On Sunday morning, Joseph took his puppy to the park. The puppy was on the leash, Joseph remembered. But he found something wrong, Joy was gone and its noise was not heard anymore. As a result, he was in low spirits.

    In the meanwhile, his classmate, Amy, came to him and asked him why he seemed so gloomy. Joseph told what had happened in detail. Accordingly, Amy gave him advice, seeking for puppy on the way home because the puppy was smart and it can remember how to go home. Finally, he found the dog at the door. He was in high spirits and restored his radiant smile.

       When Petty went down the stairs, he saw the sofa was a mess. She was surprised because last night she told her mother that she had been longing to have a pet. The kittens were cute but she felt something odd. Accordingly, she inquired of her mother this strange condition. Her mother pretended to know nothing about it and asked Petty to take the kittens to the park. Petty wanted to keep these kittens, but her mom was opposed to this idea.

     Petty sank into melancholy while the kittens were in ecstasy because they didn’t know they would be abandoned. However, while Petty was playing with the kitten with a ball. The kittens knew Petty was gloomy, and they tried to cheer her up. To Petty’s amazement, her classmates and family showed up with the cake and cried out”Happy birthday to you. Your gloomy look is pitiful and cute.” In the meanwhile, she knew all of it was planned by her friends. Finally, she fulfilled the dream of having kittens as pet. It was the most special and unforgettable birthday she ever had.

   Happiness is an element of critical importance for everyone. This morning, I saw a book entitled “Secret” which puts a premium on happiness. A successful person must hold the wheel of his or her mood. When a disgusting thing happens, it might be a blessing in disguise. For a student like me, the grades of tests cannot depress me. Owing to turning a bad mood to motivation, I am more modest and keep working hard. Instead of complaining the thing, continual hard working is a must.

     The sun coincides with rain. That is, when a bad thing happens, you can still keep your mind happy with gratitude, the atmosphere around you would be harmonious. Deciding your mind is the priority to success. If you stay in a bad mood, the axis of earth will not change returning for you.

    Unlike others’ father, my father is always absorbed in writing calligraphy instead of watching TV.  Every time I went into the living room, his works are hung beside the TV. I enjoy seeing the calligraphy. Once, my father taught me how to distinguish between great calligraphy and bad one. Since then, the calligraphy is not just an old-fashioned thing to me, but an art.
   In addition to diligence, the sense of humor and positive attitude also characterize my father. ” Comparisons are odious.” He once said to me. Every time I feel bad due to comparison, his words flash on my mind. “Just do your utmost, and not too serious on the grade. If you keep a positive attitude and hard work, the success will come in the long run.”
    His optimism and positive attitude have a great influence on me. As a consequence, I always do my utmost optimistically.
