Dear Mario:
We're having a wonderful time in Queenstown.The weather is much different than Taiwan,i can see why they say "There are four season in one day".

Even the temperature wasn't nice.We still went to visit many places.Queenstown is good for sightseeing and natural scenery.i was speachness....Most of the time on the cruiser.i enjoyed food,coffee and life.

On 23.March,it was very sunny with a blue sky.We flew from Queenstown to some mountain peaks by helicopter.I had many experiences for the first time.It's an unforgetable experience.

On the last day,we went to the musuem.I bought some souvenirs for you .
See you soon.

This store very secret.No bus stop and no bill board.I though visitor impossible found it .

I don't like buy clothes because too many style and colourful.I real cannot choice some.

This afternoon.My homeparants brought me to clothes store.The reason is they knew my clothes not enough warm and I have ever mentioned about cold when i come back from Queenstown.

Certainly, there are many style and colourful in the store.I look around again and again.My hand still empty.

I told myself winter is coming soon,if i haven't got some warm clothes.I am going to here again next mouth.So I .....choice some .. sleeveless underwear*2 $39/one
socks *3 $17.5/one
hat*1 $25
Sweater*1 $109

The Sunglasses

I bought a pair of sunglasses in Queenstown.

When I was a student.I was always thinking about "Sunglasses of Ray-Ban".But I kept thinking because they are too expensive and the sun light is not strong in TW.

Now,I have a good reason and opportunaty to buy some.In N.Z I always cannot open my eyes at lunch time.

I'm going to wear my sunglasses and gloves skiing in winter,so cool !!

I will love skiing~ Linda said

ISIC

Yesterday afternoon,I went to the city centre,because i would like to apply for an International Student Identity Card.

When i was in Taiwan.My agent never mentioned it.but other Taiwanese students have it.Only i haven't got one.I don't quite understood.Why i had the same agent and enrollment day but the result isn't the same.

I forgot the agent and i applied for one by myself.I spent $20 dollars.This was a bad day.

Book some activities

I went to the city centre when i finished the afternoon class.because we must book some a activities on Easter weeked.We booked two activities.One is the helicopter and another is sightseeing by ship.According to staff at the visitor centre.The cruiser's age is more than a century.It's very famous in Queenstown.

I have read an article "The Chopper wedding".The content of article describes a farmer who was poor when he was young.He tolked to himself and he wished he had a "chopper wedding".Surely,this dream couldn't come true.

Now,The farmer is older and earns a lot of money.So he will organise a chopper wedding for his son.This is a true story from BBC News.

With-Mamy

With~Mamy~Wishes your dreams come true.
Mamy is 19 years old and comes from Japan.She stayed N.Z only two weeks.But in my heart ,I saw an impossible mission from her ?
Her English level is "Beginner".She earned money by herself and she had many jobs in one day.She worked very hard for a long time because our school is the most expensive in Christchurch.

Her bag was always heavy.According to the contract between school and homestay,the homestay must provides a house key and wash dirty laundry.But she hasn't got any key and she washes her dirty laundry by herself.So,sometimes she cannot get into her house and she sit in the park .She is always said, just 2 weeks.

She is very likeable

To~Alison. She look like you 60 years old.

17.Mar Dairy

This afternoon, Our class had outdoor activites.We went to the coast first.After that,we went to the cafe.We saw a lot of windsurfers on the sea and many sea-gulls on the coast.Everybod took a lot photo,especially of the windsurfers.They are look like have got very skilled.

Next,we went to the cafe.The cafe naming "East Coast Cafe".This is quite different from other cafes,because they have got a lot of old things,farm tools small cars,bike ...etc..

Everybody ordered something to drink.We discussed the culture of Saudi Arabia.We had to know why husbands never see their brides and the brides also never see their husbands.How can they love each other for ever ? If something unexpected happens. How do they divorce ?

Write Thursday's diary

This morning.i got up earlier 30mins than before.i've got a meeting with morning teacher ,Linda.
Yesterday night,I have spent much time to thought what's point i should discussing with her then got the most helpful in valuable 30mins.Regarding my english degree.

I've got the conclution as beblow:
Firstly,during the period in N.Z I would like to pass the IELTS exam with at least a score of 5.This is my majoy subject and must let her know.

Secondly,So far , I can read almost all the vocabulary but i always use them incorrectly.

Thirdly,Much more basic grammar i never know or forgot .
Finally,How can i got good progrocess in listening and speaking ability.

for 1, Linda tolked to me ,about IELTS and she said it is not easy,I must put much effort into English .but this subject is important to me.

for 2.Reading.Do not rapid check directionary when i've got vocabulary.Keep thinking and daring guess until finished this section.Via thinking we can memorise easier than immediately checking the directionary.

for 3.When i was finished a paragraph.Next,I can read once again and focus on prepositions in another section.After that understanding sentence structure from other section.

for 4,um...example, i can focus on someone like a TV news reporter.beause same people ,same accenting and same subject (climate or something) more easier to pratice listening ability.
Though TV news content is too diffcult to me but i will keep on going.

Finally,Wherever,by bus ,at home ,with everyone , listening as much as possible.Deep remember "Be like a sponge and soak up as much as you can"No matter what read,write,listen and speak.

I've got a meeting with morning teacher

In Seafield school,Every fortnight, We can arrange a one to one meeting with morning teacher.What's point should i talk to her ?

Firstly,i am feel vocabulary too easy.Almost all word i can read,but cannot correct to use.

Tour in city centre

Near Death

I ran through a forest and lost my way two months ago.I'd checked the path on the satellite map so that I knew where to go.I ran alone and wore light clothes.But this road appeared to divide into lots of paths."It might be the inner circle or the outer circle" i thought!!Of course the answer was wrong.The real situation and the estimated paths were different.

However, i was just wearing a T-shirt and didn't have any money,cell phone or a coat and i couldn't remember address details or phone number.Anyway,I had nothing with me.I was shivering and exhausted .It was rainning and i was along running and walking,walking and running."i am going to die in a forest",I thought.

Suddenly and fortunately, i found a house about 500 meters away.Unfortunately there wasn't a path between me and the house.i have to go through high weeds.If there were any snakes,spiders or poisonous insects or the house was empty,I thought "My body and clothes will appear on Telly news".

i came back home, Tks to the couple who rescued me .They took me to Burwood Hospital because I knew my way home from here.God bless them.tks a lot.I was very grateful,my disastrous day was over.
