A little bird was flying south for the winter. The weather was so cold, the bird froze and fell to the ground in a large field. While it was lying there, a cow came by and dropped some dung on it. As the frozen bird lay there in the pile of cow dung, it began to realize how warm it was. The dung was actually thawing him out! He lay there all warm and happy, and soon began to sing for joy. A passing cat heard the bird singing and came to investigate. Following the sound, the cat discovered the bird under the pile of cow dung, and promptly dug him out and ate him!
The story tells us:
1) not everyone who drops shit on you is your enemy.
2) not everyone who gets you out of shit is your friend.

Scared & Sci-Fi movies
Movies are someone's part of life. I think movies are just can be a tool for human entertainment. I like to watch the scared movies becasue they can stimulate people's vision and hearing. For the Sci-Fi movies, they are not only can stimulate people's vision and hearing, but also can sublime our imagination. It also always give people a lot of thinking.

And some movie also give us a idea that the bad effection of highly mechanized.

One day in Chicago
Oct 2, we went to Chicago, the third largest city in the US. Chicago is famous for Lake Michigan which is one of the Great Lakes in the US. I was most impressed with the shore of Lake Michigan and the Sears tower.
Firstly, we took off in the front of the Field Museum and walked along the shore of Lake Michagan. The lake was as big as the sea; you could not see the other side of the lake. Sail boats around the beach and the wind gave us a sense of being at the seaside.
Another impressive place was the Sears Tower, the highest building in the US right now. It is 443meters high and has 110 floors. In the skydeck of the building we could see the whole skyline of Chicago. It was really an inspiring and thrilling experience.

Funny With New
Just when I first came here, I was surprised why the sky are so beautiful with bright blue background and white cloud. After that, I was surprised why the bus is always free. Then I was surprised that all the people running and riding are just for practise not vehicle.
I didn't find someplace for entertainment there, maybe skating in the coral ridge mall, shoping in the super wal-mart can be a kind of entertainment. I really do not know what can I do for fun.
But, yesterday, I can not sleep in the night. So I went to run around my apartment. With the fresh and a little bit cool air, running is the greatest enjoyment during the night. Surrounding are absolute quiet and the feeling can make you fully relax . You can have a try if you do not afraid of the dark.

I
Ladies and gentle men. Welcome to my blog and thanks for listening.
I' like to introduce myself to you guys first. I am a 18 years old boy who comes from China. A beautiful country in the east of Pacific ocean and opposite of the earth of USA. Now I am living in the apartment called Hawkeye court where lives a lot of international students, most of them are graduate students.
I am studying English in IIEP because I am so lazy to study English in China. I always thinking about if I memorized more 2000o new English words I will be a undergraduate student now.
I like playing all kinds of sports? No, games. Actually, computer games which presented by Blizzard. There are images of them below. I do not think games are waste of time. Your brain will practice all the time during playing games.
