THE TAMING OF THE SHREW(go to a performance)

On Dec. 19th, 2008, I went to our School Drama Club’s performance. I watched one of the Shakespeare’s famous dramas, “The Taming of the Shrew”.

I knew that our drama club had practice for this performance for a long time, and I felt really excited about this show. I bought a VIP ticket, and was looking forward to this drama.

The lead role of this year’s drama is Fan and Cherry, and all the actors did a great job. Cherry gave me a great impression, and I believed she gave everyone a great impression too. She is so beautiful, especially at the end of the show. At the end of the show, she put on a really nice dress, and she looked very elegant. I heard many people talking about here after the show. She almost became my hero.

The drama was very interesting. Fan acted as Cherry’s husband in this play. They built up many small conflicts in the show. Finally, Cherry fell in love with Fan.

Richard was the only actor from Grade 10, and he did an excellent job. He said he had learnt many experience from the Drama Club Performance. He thought although it was very tired, he felt happy too.

It was my first time to see the GCA performance, and it brought me an unforgettable memory. Now, I am looking forward to the next year’s performance from our school drama club. If I have a chance, I might sign up and try to join the drama club next year, too. I think that will be great fun.

GO TO A RELIGIOUS SERVICE

I went to St. Paul’s Church on May 2nd. St. Paul’s church is a Catholic church. It was my first time to go to a religion service, and I felt quite nervous at first. It was raining outside, and I went in the church a little bit late. The pray ceremony had already begun when I came into the church. Many nuns were standing on the stage and singing one of the songs from the “Catholic Lyrics”.

After the song, one of the nuns came to the middle of the stage and started to give us a speech. It was my first time to learn knowledge about Catholic from the church, and I did learn something. I was told that all the people would be innocent when they were died. The god would forgive for all the bad things they had done before. This is the main idea I learnt from this trip to St. Paul’s Church.

I find this trip quite boring. Actually, I am not agreed with the opinion from the nuns. I think everyone would do bad things, and after they have done them, they can’t goes over the mistakes. Also, I don’t believe that there is god in the world. No one can save us, but ourselves. If we want to feel happy, we need to do good things for the society.

However, go the St. Paul’s Church was a good experience for me. Although I am not agreed with the opinion, I still learnt some culture from a different country.

TALENT SHOW (Act in a Performance)

I felt very happy because I was the emcee of the GCA Talent Show! I thought It was an interesting experience for me. I learnt many experiences from this activity.

My planning teacher – Ms. Bartell asked me if I would like to be the emcee of the Talent Show one week before it happens. Although I said I was willing to do it, I felt a little bit nervous about it because I had to speak in front of the whole school!

During the following day, Patrick (who is the other emcee of the talent show) and I practiced a lot in the GCA small garden. We did some detailed practice too.

On the day of the Talent Show, I was nervous. To my surprise, my art teacher –Ms. Hadley said I seemed calm when I was standing on the stage. The day after the talent show, many teachers came to me and told me that I did a good job. I felt very happy about this.

After this Talent Show, I thought that I became braver than before. I could do many things confident in front of all my classmates. My parents felt happy about this because they were worried that I could not fit in my new school very well.

It was my first time to be an emcee, and I thought I did a quite good job. To be the emcee of the school talent show became an unforgettable memory to me. I would like to join more activities in the future.
