Old town, Old music

Almost 24 years ago, I was born in a small city located in the middle China, and my birthday, which is meant to die, in fact, has not been a lucky number since I was born.

My Chinese name is Ji Guo -- Ji is my first name, and Guo is my last name. Usually, Americans pronounce Ji correct but they never pronounce Guo correct as well. Thus, I have had a English name, Fred, a perfect name which comes from a famous cartoon named The Flintstones.

BEST

The best of your life probably is a thing that you can never reach up.

Tired

My friends have been here for three days, and during three days, I spent extensive power and skills on driving and guiding. We went to Crater Lake yesterday but the snow there has been more than 10 ft thick, therefore we could not visit there! There was just 8.9 miles left!

Today, We visited falls beside I-84 interstate freeway. I had drove the whole day and got tired without any help. Well, they are my friend, and those stuff probably are something I have to be with.

Almost 10 pm, I am going to sleep. LOL.

Spring term

Winter term had been one of the greatest term in my life.

It was the first time that I enrolled master`s program as a student in the field of education, and I had been tired in the term, but I believe that I have obtained more than I paid off. Of course, something wrong occurred when I was in study, and still there were a stuff of problems need to be improved or solved.

I have to stress three things that became important parts in my graduate life: GRE; Data collecting and obtaining.I will work harder on all three parts in spring term. At least, I will try to remember more vocabulary in order to teach kids in my hometown.

I have been back; I have never run away.

Winter Term GPA: 3.79.

I am back

I have been disappeared for more than 20 days. In those 20 days, I enjoyed my life and found differences, shortages, even problems of mine, and I know, sometimes everything is difficult to be improved, or changed, but I still believe that I will be better than before.

Today, I received a letter from Western Oregon University. It is the scholarship awarded letter. Congratulations to myself. I did it.

I miss my students in Highland Elementary School

I was taken this pic 3 or 4 weeks ago in Highland Elementary School. In this pic, they showed their Chinese assignment which finished in Class and included name, age, work, and Highland Elementary School.

Student card and book

Today, I went to WOU to submit scholarship application form with recommendation letters. In order to obtain scholarship, I will try my best in graduate studies. I know, it will be diffcult, but I will try my best to study.

I registered student card in a center, but I cannt remember its name. LOL. Then I borrowed a book for Mrs Hughes classes: Language Development: a reader for teachers. I will read this book in the holiday, and take reading notes as much as I can.

I will re-write everything for scholarship application.
