Assignment #1 Blog post

          My summer was pretty awesome, but on the other side, it was very boring too. When summer started, I kept wondering how boring it’s going to be, but guess what, I did a lot of things and also studied. For the whole summer, every day is the same routine; I woke up at 10 A.M, got out of my bed and start a new day. I had tutors who come to my house to teach me every day. I think it was a very good idea to study in the summer because summer is quite long period; it’s very easy for us to forget simple things that we studied. I learned a lot of new knowledge as well as reviewed old things, but that’s not the only thing I did. I went to play basketball nearly every weekend. It helped me to be fit a lot. On the 20th of July, I and whole big family went to Da Nang. There were relatives from America, too. They visited us every 2 years, that’s why my family held a trip to Da Nang. This place very beautiful but also very hot. We stayed at a 5 stars resort, it was expensive, but it worth the money. The view was gorgeous, I took hundreds of photos. I also ate a lot of food, and got myself some more “kilograms”. This was the only vacation I took with my family, but I enjoyed it a lot. Time passes really quick, it’s already August, which means I have to say good-bye to my relatives in my America, as well as getting ready for school. I prepare all the things I need a week before school, it was very excited. So that’s my summer. I really enjoyed it. It was great.

          There are a lot of things that I’m most looking forward to this year in Social Studies class. First, I am looking forward at be organized and neat. I think it will be very important in the future to do things in an organized way. I am also interested in learning how to speak in public, as you said; to speak in public is even scarier than death. We must get used to it, and be confident. Another thing I want to know is about how human interact with the environment and how it change over time. For me, this is a very important course. This is the last year of middle school, and high school is a whole different level. I want to be well prepared for high school and success in this subject. Overall, I hope this year will be a enjoyable and awesome year, and to learn a lot more with you, Mr. Blake.
