My trip in Japan this year is a special memory to me because I was the trip planner. I enjoyed the whole process although it required me a lot of efforts.
There are various challenges and new experience from the beginning to the end. Before the trip, my goal was to make an easy and simple route. It is not easy to give up some places and make choices with information from the books. I consulted some experienced friends and their suggestions were really helpful. Then, going on the trip was the most exciting part. There were many interesting things to see which might not be in the books. I could see them by my eyes and to me it was amazing. After the trip, I made a scrapbook of journals and pictures, shared my experience with friends.
This memory stands not only as an interesting experience but also taught me that I could be as independent as I thought I could be.

Karen treated me at the restaurant several months ago. I recommanded to Kelly and we enjoyed a happy time there this Wednesday. Their meals are fresh and with a cheaper price. Even Willy , who doesn't like Japanese meals, he said he likes their meals and will bring his friends come again.
I think it is is a very good Japanese restaurant for friends to meet together. Recommend to you. (By the way, this picture obviously shows that I really became dark.....)

In order to take driving class in the early morning, I began to ride a motorcycle this week. My brother was my teacher and took me to take the licence test.
I used to think about it is very dangerous to ride motorcycle in Taipei so I never think about to get a motorcycle license before. However, I now wish I got the license earlier because I found it is really much more convenient to go by motorcycle. However, it is also more dangerous since the traffic in Taipei is always heavy. Remembering that God is everywhere gave me a lot of courage to ride. God is everywhere. I am not alone. What a mercy! God is everywhere.

Parents are ever ready to help their children. I, as a daughter, was really happy to treat them.費玉清is my father's favorite singer. Yesterday we went to his yearly concert together. When he knew the price of the tickets, he murmured several times. However, I could feel that he was really happy in the concert.
費玉清 is not only good at live singing. It is really more attracting than listening to the CDs. Besides, he is also a charming humorous host. His jokes were pretty funny.

Ten years ago, when I saw people riding bicycles along the Rhine River, I dreamed that I could go such bicycle riding one day in Taipei, and it came true today. My elementary school classmate, Teresa invited me to go bicycle riding with her and her friends from Dadaocheng Dock to Dan Shui Pa li.
During riding, I felt relaxing and saw many countryside views. This trip reminded me of my biking experiences in other city before. (With senior high school classmates in Hualien, With brothers and sisters in Tai dong, San Franciscoand San Jose.)
I appreciated the Taipei government designed such biking roads for citizens. It was a very good experience to ride a bicycle in Taipei today.

Could you image how could the iron used for cooking? If you have no idea, then you might be interested in the cuisine show today in our oral class.
Sylvia's group made "Bacon Sandwich" by ironing. Their cooking process was interesting and amazing. First, they ironed one slice of toast until it became crispy.Second, they ironed bacons and turn it over frequently at the same time to avoid it become burnt. After cooking the toast and bacons, following was the most difficult part. They turned the iron upwards to fry eggs on the plate. There was a tip that "You had better to sturn the egg to make it easily shaped." said Sylvia. Finally, they put all the things together and added cheese. I was the lucky girl have the chance to take a taste. It was really delicious!

Today SITCA held a badminton match in the sports centre of National Taipei University of Education's . After the activity , I went to dinner with my colleagues near the school. I ordered its most famous dish “Flat noodles in Squid thick soup.” Normally, I don't like Chinese think soup because they are always too thick. But I really like their soup with unique spicy sauce. Beside, the flat noodles are al dente, which is just great! Now when I just think about it, I am mouth-watering. After eating, I went to buy a Japanese drink “Asahi cocktail partner”. The alcohol content is 4 percent so I only drink it on celebrating time. Today, eating and drinking are my happiness.

To me, listening to Japanese songs is a kind of happiness. Few weeks ago, Richard asked me "If you have to lose the ability of seeing or hearing, which one will you choose to keep?” I hadn’t thought the question but I agreed with his choice that to keep the ability of hearing.
I always listen to Japanese songs because their lyrics are consoling and encouraging. Following are some examples:

Did you remember the song "Wannabe" by Spice Girls?
Today, I met several senior high school classmates of "Honest" class. It's easy to talk with them although we didn't gather together for a long time. I was a little excited and felt warm after this meeting. When listened to everyone talking about their worrying, A thought flashed through my mind which is about the "Girls Power" we owned ten years ago. Today what we need is "Woman Power." the power to take care of ourselves, our parents, work....etc.
When IU-Chin told us now the first year's school ID number is "63510XX.", we all were surprised that ten years has passed. God bless me to have many positive and friendly friends since I was born. They made me realize that being supported and supporting others is a kind of happiness. My friends, wherever you are, I always pray for you and wish you all are fine. Keep contact! 
flashed through my mind= 閃過腦海=flash in front of my eyes=閃過眼前
