Volunteer work at GCA

(I am in the middle near John.It is not very clear.)


Last term, Ms.Mitshrich told us there had the volunteer work. Half of my class, went to the school every Saturday morning , and we worked until the noon, sometimes maybe later.Our work is not difficult . We had this chance to be an artist.Our work is to paint. The things we paint on are the walls. The walls are the direction of the GCA.

It was the winter , and the weather was very cold , we should get up early in the morning , and work outside the building. Even though it was sunny ,but we wore a lot of clothes, everyone was cold. However, we still had a happy time during the volunteer work. We paint like an artist. I think it is very funny to paint .We used big brushes , and mixed with the pigment.We paint the wall with the white first because the original wall is a hollow rectangular block which is made of the wood.Our goal was to make these hollow rectangular block to become the colorful wall. We painted the white first , then we used the dark green and the dark brown to made some bricks on them.

Our hands were very cold , we could not put our hands into the pockets because we needed to use our poor hands to paint them . Our hands became red in the cold wind but we must continue to work. It is the first time i felt the difficulty of the work , especially it was the winter and we worked outside , how tough we were. We could not give up , we are the workers now. To make the GCA more beautiful is our duty , is why we did this . I kept working . The others were working so hard , too. Nobody gave up . We often chated with each other and worked at the same time , it could make us more relaxed .

Painting the wall was not the thing for one person to do , we should work with a group , 1 person mixed the color , the other 2 or 3 person used brushed to paint them carefully , and we needed 1 person to clean the dirty water. Before i came to here , i thought painting is an easy thing to do , just using the brush to paint , and can paint whatever we want . When i painted them , i felt i was wrong ,painting is not an easy thing to do . We should care about the color and care about how we can make the proper color and how can we paint them on the right way .We needed to be very careful to paint everywhere , because if somewhere is not painted well or carefully , it should affect the whole effect. We were very careful to paint it , and we worked very well into a group . We helped each other also.

From this experience , i learned a lot . To do a job is not an easy thing , especially we want to make the things perfect. We should pay more attention into the details , and we cannot be careless . We should be careful everytime. The environment of the work is that we cannot change , so we just overcome it . We cannot complain so much because we worked not for ourselves , we worked for others . Since we accept the work , we must do well .To be responsible to ourselves. Wherever we work, whatever we work , we must be responsible, we must try our best to do .

Cooking lesson

On Saturday Morning , i went to school to have an cooking lesson which is establish by Ms.Batell. Each group has 6 to 7 people and each group has a teacher.The teacher of our group is an ex-change student , she is a French. We learnt how to cook cookie.Each group should make the food to the whole class which they learn .Katherine and I were in the same group and we are in the same cooking group .We learnt together.

First , we needed some meterials , such as butter, flour, white sugar , brown sugar , egg ,and chocolate.Then , we started to mix them . We followed the teacher . We heated the butter , after that , we mixed the white sugar , brown sugar , 1 egg , and some flour.We took turns to mix them.After mixing them , we divided a piece of chocolate into a lot of pieces, and mix them into the other meterials.We make a lot of lumps of the mixed meterials.Then we put them into the oven for 15 to 20 minutes . Finally , the seductive cookies are in front of us . We ate them immediately because they are so delicious.


I really enjoyed the cooking time. I like cooking , but i have no time to cook at home , so today's experience made me feel really happy and excited. I want to learn how to cook some famous Chinese food, then i can cook them in the forign countries . I should learn more from my mom and my grandma. Cooking is really interesting for me .

Art Festival ------Snow White


At the Art Festival , our class had a show named Snow White , we performed the film version of Snow White. The play was written by Abby. It is really a funny play and we put a lot of effort into it . We practice a lot after finishing writing play . I played a role of big and tall man. We changed 7 short men into 7 big and tall men. It was really interesting.


It is my first time to have a performance in GCA. I was a little nervous when i played. Soda played a role of Snow White , she is the main character , and it is very funny for her to play a role of Snow White , she doesn't look like Snow White at all , and it is interesting to let her be Snow White. Abby played a role of evil Queen . She plays very well . I heard the laugh from the auditorium . My role is easy to play , we don't need to speak , we just need to perform , we have 7 tall and big men , we cried when Snow White "died",although the crying was very artificial , we got the effect of comedy.


This is a successful performance , even though we had some small problem during the perform , such as Kevin jumped on the stage at the wrong time , and a lot of audience were laughing , even us , actors, we were laughing, he is so funny. I think it is still a successful , and we got the applause. I like performing , i want to have more chance to perform in GCA.

The students were walking one by one , and showed their beautiful and colorful clothes.Some girls were very sexy . One of a boy was dressed up as a woman , and it was really funny .When the teachers came out and walked , all the audiences were excited and shouted . The teachers' clothes are different from each other . I saw our model Ms.Leung , she wore the clothes which were designed by me , and wore a pair of red shoes and a red handbag , she looked so pretty . I was really excited like i was really a designer and saw my design under the light , under all the people's eyes. The clothes of Ms.Chu are also beautiful , and Ms. Bartell, Ms.Hadly were beautiful that evening . Mr.Harris is the most handsome guy i thought that evening.

We also saw another kinds of exhibitions and a lot exhibits.

Italian Food



During the spring holiday , i went to the Italian restaurant with my best friend Penny . The name of the restaurant is Babela's kitchen .It is on the 3rd floor of Jin Lun shopping mall, and the mall is opposite to the Golden Eagle international shopping mall .We often go there to have lunch or dinner . On 6th February , i went here with Penny again ,and we enjoyed eating very much .






Babela has a very good envrionment .It is quiet and comfortable ,and some english songs , some jazz songs make me feel cool .There has a lot of famous Italian food such as pasta and pizza. We ordered noodles and pizza . We both thought the noodles and pizza here are quite delicious.I ordered this noodles and it has special taste.There is cream on the noodles and it has the bacon , mushroom .The taste of this noodles is not the same as the chinese noodles. Chinese noodles almost have a same taste ,like salty noodles .However this noodles tasted both sweet and salty ,so i thought it is quite a special food .


The price is very cheap i think .This noodles just cost me 13 yuan , and there alway has a lot discount .During the spring holiday , each pizza just cost us 19 yuan and the size of pizza is not small. We ate a lot and we were very full.

Even though a lot of things of this restaurant is very good , the service of the restaurant is not good. Every time ,i want to call the waiters and waitresses,they don't come until i called them for 2or 3 times . I don't why , i even shouted. Just when i want to check , and they come very quickly . That's really funny .

Anyway , this is still a good restaurant , not expensive , and can make us feel full , i advice my friends to go after i having meals there .
