The Summer Vacation

Summer vacation is a time of the year most students look forward to. It is the best part of the school year for me. Even through I am on summer vacation, I am still busy for doing things. I think that is good for me to have something to do, something like visiting relatives and friends, to have an meeting with family, doing house works, seeing the movies, learning English and so on. All these things make me feel my vacation is fulfilled and meaningful. The summer vacation comes to a close. I had a good summer vacation and I must to say goodbye to my wonderful vacation. For many students, September means the sad end to summer vacation. A new semester is coming soon. There are more challenges than ever in school or my working place. I do not know how difficult the duties are, but I will do my best to deal with everything I will meet.

The Reasons to Saving Money

As economic recession hits, it is more import now than ever to save our money. Saving money is something that everyone should do but how many people actually do it? Here are some reasons why should you save as much as possible? First, saving for emergency funds. It is import to cover some unexpected expenses as they happen. For instance, no one knows when he or she will get sick, when his or her car will break down or a sudden job loss. Second, saving money allows us to take a few well-deserved and needed vacations every year. I really think taking vacation is an essential part of our life. Vacations are good for your mind and your health. It makes you look at thing from a different point of view. Third, saving for retirement. Have you ever imagined how it would feel after you retired only to realize that you do not have enough income to live on? Most people do not think about this until they get close to retirement. If you do not want to be one of those, so you have to start saving early. Saving money can bring you huge benefits, and that allows us to live a comfortable life. Begin to save money, and spend less.

Moon Festival

The Moon Festival is also called the Mid-Autumn Festival because it falls on the middle of autumn. As the full bright moon on that night tends to inspire people's anticipation for a family reunion. The festival is a day of family reunions. Whenever the festival comes, the family members who were far away to return home and enjoy the happy times together with whole family. The main activities on the Mid-Autumn Festival are appreciating the full moon and eating moon cakes. Among the various activities on the Festival, BBQ is a very popular family activity in Taiwan. Of course, our family always has a BBQ together at that day. The adults usually indulge in eating many varieties of moon cakes with hot tea or pomelo. I think that is a wonderful chance to have a family reunion and to celebrate our happy life. It is one of my favorite festivals

A Trip to Hong Kong

I went to Hong Kong with my friend for 4 days in March. I must say our tour was fantastic and well organized. Our hotel is located in Tsim Sha Tsui, which is near the heart of a shopping district and is extremely convenient. Only 5 minutes walk from the MTR. During the trip, we visited the Avenue of Stars as well as watched the Symphony of Lights at night. It was a spectacular show. We spent a lot of time at H&M, ZARA and UNIQLO, which are good places for shopping. We bought most of clothes and accessories from here. One day, we woke up in the morning to go visit the Wong Tai Sin Temple. It is one of the most famous temples in Hong Kong. After praying for good luck and health from the temple, we headed to Tseung Sha Wan Plaza to take a look at the fashion warehouse outlets. I bought a brand-name handbag here for Mother’s Day present this year. All in all, I would like to thank my friend for her complete itinerary, so we could enjoy our time in Hong Kong.
