Journal

In 2009, I had been busy with club affairs and seldom had time to focus on my academic works. In addition, due to the great amount of work from both the club and the department, I had to stay up late constantly, which broke down my perfect living tempo. In the past few weeks, I noticed that I have headache most of the time, and I can't focus in class and on my assignment. What's more, slept over and then skip the class become normal routines in my life. And I even collapsed a couple of times because I feel as if I were being chasing after essays and papers forever. I think my life is getting out of control. I need the good old days back.

Therefore, in order to get rid of all these bad habits, I have to readjust my living style. First, I have to stop staying up late and form the habit of getting up earlier in the morning. The regularized sleeping time can help me regain my strength and focus on my tasks when awake. Second, I need to exercise more regularly other than simply rely on the taken PE class. Exercise is a good emotion outlet that it helps me release the unhappiness when misunderstandings occur. And exercise helps me maintain my body shape. Third, I need to learn time management in order to arrange and settle everything down before the deadline. I should write down all the things I need to do and make a to-do lists. And then arrange them on my schedule, and make sure that I finish each task.

Start from last January, I have bought a lot of novels and interesting books but have no time to read. To tell the truth, I didn't spend much time on academic study. Therefore, in 2010, I want to spare more time on reading and study.

Besides reading and study, I would like to travel. When I was a freshman, I had the opportunity to visit Beijing Foreign Language Study University. What I saw and experienced at Beijing had influenced my attitude toward study and my life. Last summer vacation I went to Penghu for three days. It was a marvelous experience that I can still recall the warmth and the hospitality from the local people. This summer I will visit Brisbane in Australia for three months. I hope I can learn more during the time.

Welcome to 2010!!!!
