Joyeux Noël !

It is Christmas night now, so Merry Christmas to all of you.

I remenbered that at last week's class we were discussing " what does Christmas mean to you " . I've read that some of the western press who were amused that " Asian people are celebrating Christmas " are unhappy now. They say that " Asian people don't know the meaning of the Christmas. They think Christmas is just a reason for crazy shopping. "

For western people, Christmas is really a holiday and is a day for family gathering, kind of like Chinese New Year. However, let's just take a specific look in Taiwan, Chistmas does not mean so much. As for me, it doesn't mean so much either, but it is a still good day to send cards to friends. Since I often forget their birthday, it is a good way to show my care for them ( laugh) . So on Christmas days I won't go to church, not sure will have a dinner with family, maybe send some cards to friends, definitely will buy something. That is how I often celebrate Christmas and, I guess, what Christmas means to me.

And, someone keep saying that Dec.25th is not only Jesus Christ's birthday but also our Constitution's birthday !

History Report

O-oh! I almost forget to revise my blog!

Now I’m writing my history report which is due newt Wednesday. This work ask us to introduce one place’s history and there monuments where we were assigned before. Our group were assigned to do the 三峽 part, and I have to introduce the 李梅樹紀念館 .

The museum is not far from the school, you can take the Bus 910 at the back door and get of at the 安溪國小 stop. This museum is small but warm, since the museum is run by the artist 李梅樹’s family . The way they guide the paintings are different from the guide who has no relationship with the paintings. Actually, there are the models of the paintings!

The museum is worth visiting and I hope I can visit the museum once one day.

If you want to know anout this museum, you can go check out the website following. http://www.limeishu.org/index.htm

Feeling Bad.

I know that I have left here about three weeks. I am feeling bad to see that it is so vacant here. Not just saying something pretty, but that is exactly how I feel. I feel like I broke a promise, a promise to myself. I have told myself to write at least once a week and to keep the blog fresh. I did want to. But I fall to do it.

It is time to change.
