Title: A cellphone in my life

Nowadays, cellphones have become necessary devices in people’s daily life. For me, I think cellphone is really nice to my life. The only cellphone in my life is the phone I own now. It is a smartphone. Although it’s not the best phone on the market, I think it’s enough to me. In my opinion, this phone is nice and has many advantages. It is nice of its connection, entertainment and convenience.

  First, I think it’s nice because it is easy to connect others. I can connect my friends and family members. I can chat with them easily and don’t need to feel nervous and just talk to each other happily. And also, I can connect to the world by many social networks with the Internet. I can make new friends by Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and Pinterest. For example, I make some friends on Instagram. Some of them are Korean; some are American and some are Thai! They like the same idol as me. We always chat and share the latest news. We also talk about the things happened in our own country. I think it’s also a kind of connecting to the world. So without the phone, I can’t connect with others and even lose the connection with the world.

  Second, I think it’s nice because it is good at entertainment. I always use it to listen to music. I download all the music which I like. And it displays the lyrics on the screen so that I can sing with the melody. And also, I download some game applications on my phone. In my spare time, I usually play them to kill time. I think there are millions of games in the play store (application market). So without the phone, I can’t have so much entertainment and even lose some joy in my life.

  And last, I think it’s nice because it is helpful for my learning access. I always use learning applications to learn foreign languages. I can use my phone as tools on learning. For example, I download an application called ”Doulingo”. I learn French and Korean on it. When I wait for buses or trains, I open it, learn some phrases and memorize some words. I think these applications are really useful and helpful for me. I learn so much by them. So without the phone, I can’t learn languages so convenient.

  Until now, this phone is the only phone in my life. I think it’s really good and convenient. I think it’s really nice to me. Without this phone, my life may become boring and lose some joy. To sum up, I think it’s really awesome to own this cellphone.(456)

--------------------------------------

Some people thinks that once we have money, we have everything; some people said that money can’t buy everything like happiness and love or what. In my opinion, I think that only people who earn a lot of money are successful. Because if we have plenty of money, we’ll be able to buy whatever you like. There are three aspects I think the most important and main advantages of the statement.

First, with money, I can buy any clothes I want to buy and don’t need to care about the prices. And I can buy a big and comfortable house. I can design my house in my own idea. I really wonder to do that. I want to design my rooms, my walls and even the whole building. I think it is very important. And the other side, I can buy a safe and cool car. I can also have a humorous car driver. I will buy the things I think instead of luxuries.

And the second,to do something good to this world. If you are a good guy and you have so much money now, I'm pretty sure that you will use it to do good things. Such as giving some of the money to charity organizations, helping your local hospitals and schools...And even more, you can give some changes or bills to the poor beggar on the street. It’s time to give many good lucks to the poor when you are rich now.

And the last,to entertainment. If I have a lot of money I can buy all my idol’s albums and don’t care about the prices. I wants to buy all of them. And also, I can buy all 3C products I want to buy. I can buy all video games and play them until I become an old guy. And the most important, if I have plenty of money, I can buy all toys I want. I will love them so much. I will in the cute and lovely toy world whole days and whole life.

All I want to say is that I think money is everything.

Your essay starts here:

When we are choosing a university abroad, some students like to attend a small university; others like a big university. And for me, I prefer to attend a small university because of its wealth, convenience and friendly.

First advantage of small universities is wealth. A small university has fewer professors but also fewer students. For example, we have just a professor of this class but in our class, there are only about ten students. So we have more attention from the teacher and the teacher can always find out our own questions about learning. And in the science class or chemical class, a small class which has few students have much more opportunities of using science devices than the big one. The students in a small class will learn more by learning everything by themselves so they will get better grades than the ones in a big class. And otherwise, they will be much happier and have lots of fun.

Second advantage of small universities is convenience. The classrooms locate very close and the distance between two classrooms is very short, so it prefer to lazy persons. Students won’t be so tired just because the classrooms are so far and they have to walk so much a long time. A small university usually has small buildings and a small campus. We can just walk slowly from one classroom to another.

And the last advantage of small universities is friendly. There are just several professors so we have a big possible that we have good relationships with them. We can know everyone in the class and even more being good friends. In a small university, we can talk to the professors just like chat with friends. And in other words, the professors can know more about the students, including their grades, ideas and thoughts. It will make each other feel fine if the professors and the students have good relationship with each other.

So these are three reasons that I think I prefer to a small university.

Online writing v.s. Word processing

In this article, I am going to compare online writing and word processing. We have started trying online writing in our writing class this semester. Nowadays, we write some articles online or by Word. Now I want to announce some opinions of online writing and try to compare it with Word processing. I am going to list some of their advantages and disadvantages in order to let you guys know more about the difference between two of them.

 In my opinion, there are three aspects of the difference between them. The first aspect is convenience. Online writing   more convenient than Word processing because I can write articles whenever and wherever I am. I can write articles on my cellphone instead of sitting in front of my computer and tying in Word. Second is interacting. I can let more people around the world read my articles and ask them to give me more useful and helpful suggestions or some messages. And word can't do such like this. The disadvantages of Word processing are that it's not convenient for me to use.
 And third is easy to use. It’s also the disadvantage of online writing .It's difficult to use for those who did not very familiar to Blogger. It's harder to get into the condition for those who are not very good at using computers. And the advantages of Word processing are that it's easy to use and write articles for those computer beginners. Every Windows computer has Word so it won't be too difficult to everyone.


So, I like online writing more than Word processing because of its convenience. I think online writing is much better than Word processing for me.

[Book] The Missing Piece Meets the BIG O -Summary, review and recommend

 

• Book name: The Missing Piece Meets the BIG O

• Author :Shel SilverStein

This book is called" THE MISSING PIECE Meets the BIG O,written by Shel SilverStein. This is a story about a missing piece was finding someone can fit it but in the end , a big O told it to roll itself. It found many parts but no one can fit it in.Although it found a part can fit it in,in the end they can't  compact together. Until the missing piece met the BIG O. BIG O didn't want and need anything from the missing piece.
BIG O told the missing piece that it can roll by itself.After the meeting,The missing piece thought BIG O's words were useless and nonsense for it. After a long time, it tried to start rolling. And it flip down. It lift...and flip down...It tried again and again. And in the end it became so perfect that it had no more edges. It became a perfect round!
And then the missing piece was no more sad and alone.

My favorite part of the book is after the BIG O told the missing piece something and it did that. If the missing piece didn't start trying, it still be here and be alone.Sometimes we always rely on other people and think if we can do nothing without others' help.But this book told us to try to do something by ourselves for ourselves.However we can get experiences from the failure,learn to be strong after meeting some setback and learn to be brave rather than sitting there. And some day we will find that we already become perfect and have no more edges. I think I will have different thoughts in different ages when I read the book. I recommend this book because it's not only a book for kids but for adults!

And I find a video on Youtube that is about this book/story.  

 

[Movie] Charlie And The Chocolate Factory-Summary and Review

Yesterday afternoon I saw a movie DVD, called “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory”. The main character are Johnny Depp (as Willy Wonka), Freddie Highmore (as Charlie Bucket), Deep Roy (as Oompa-Loompas), Anna Sophia Robb (as Violet Beauregarde), Julia Winter (as Veruca Salt), Jordan Fry (as Mike Teavee) and Philip Wiegratz (as Augustus Gloop).There was a young boy called Charlie Bucket, whose family was poor and only relied on his father’s salary. One day, Charlie’s grandpa told him the story of Willy Wonka and then he really wanted to visit the mystery factory. One day, Willy Wonka let 5 children visit his chocolate factory by five golden tickets. Only Charlie got the golden ticket by his lucky. Wonka said that only one child will get the final big surprise gift from him. And then, the other four children failed. Wonka told Charlie that the gift for him was to let him have the chocolate factory, but he must to lie without his family. Charlie refused him. But then, Charlie persuaded Wonka to visit Mr. Wonka (Willy’s dad). Willy Wonka found that his dad still loved him. In the end, Willy Wonka and Charlie worked together and lived with the Bucket family.

I love this movie and I have already seen it for over five times because of its good story and nice characters. The whole movie has sweet surrounding, very sweet, including the clothes, the scenes and the stage design are very magnificent and colorful. And the unforgettable scene to me is that Wonka owned a huge chocolate factory because he loved candies than his father. But when he asked Charlie to leave out his family and work with him, Charlie said “I wouldn’t give up my family for anything. Not for all the chocolate in the world.” Wonka thought Charlie was weird. I think Charlie’s sincere touched Wonka’s heart. And my favorite character is neither Charlie nor Wonka but Oompa-Loompas. I love their humorous and funny songs. Their dances and songs are awesome. I love this movie so I will see it again and again. 

This is the movie trailer of"Charlie and the chocolate factory".
