What's New

Right now in geography we are learning about the genocide in Rwanda, in Africa. It is really scary and awful just to see what those people went through. The situation is similar to what happened in the Halocaust, which took place in Germany. Peoples of one group are being killed just for being that way, they didn't do anything wrong. What is worse is that only a few thoughful, generous people went in to help. Countries didn't do anything, for fear of death themselves. One monday we are having a socratic seminar, which means that the students lead the discussions, and we have to take notes and read to prepare. We will lead a discussion about the genocide in Rwanda.
In my life, there are a few new things happening. Next week on monday, there is a horse that I am going to try out to see if I want to buy him. It is real exciting for me, because I have never owned my own horse, but always wanted to. In a couple weeks is spring break, and I am taking a friend to go with me to Utah. There, we are going to attempt to try and learn to snowboard. It is going to be funny to watch us even try to stand up! I will be sure to post pictures of that.

Wow! A horse of your own! You must be very excited. It is not common to own a horse in Taiwan because there's no place to ride it and it cost too much. So, if you bought it where will you keep it? In a farm or something? Snowboard sounds fun. Last summer vacation I stayed at my aunt's home which is in Alberta,Canada for almost 25 days to visit my two cousins. They told me that when winter comes they can play snowboard just right infront of their house but it's too bad that I can't go there during the winter due to the winter break is too short.
Hope you have fun!
