red wine

My father’s friend gave us a bottle of red wine. We decided to drink it during dinner. I’ve heard that red wine has many benefits. Drinking a glass of red wine each evening is good for health. It contains some materials can reduce heart disease risk, benefit the skin and blood vessels. I think it’s quite weird. Isn’t drinking alcohol bad for the body? But, why drinking red wine is good for the body? I believe that the research did by the scientists and doctors was true, but I think if I drink the red wine regularly without doing any exercise, I won’t be healthy at all. Eating or drinking something good and doing exercise at the same time is the best way to maintain healthy.

Christmas Eve

Today was the Christmas Eve; I did not have any plan. I didn’t have a big meal or go out with my friends. I was writing the Christmas cards to my friends. Last week I didn’t have so much free time to do it. Anyway, we decided to exchange the cards tomorrow at the Starbucks. Today I also received some Christmas cards from my senior high school classmates. I appreciated that they still remembered to send cards to me. I think Christmas is not so popular in Taiwan, especially for the previous generation. It is west country’s holiday at all.

reading is good

Making it as a custom to do some reading is good, my teacher said. He also said, no matter what kinds of books you read such as novels, magazines, newspapers or even comic books, all are good to increase knowledge. For me, I will buy the title of book which I interest or buy the books written by the author I like. But now, I seldom to read books except the news from the Internet. There are still some books I didn’t read which I bought before. I should find some times to finish them or I would waste my money.

shampoo

I have changed a lot of brands of shampoo but I haven’t found the one which suits me the most. When there was a new product was on sale, I would but it for a try. Maybe it smelled good, had an attracting looks, or had a very special use. I would have a little dandruff in the winter which it was very cold and dry. So I would choose anti-dandruff shampoo in the freezing winter. However, now it wasn’t very cold, so I didn’t have this problem yet. Some people said changing the shampoo frequently was better for hair. I didn’t know whether it was true or not. Anyway, I would keep looking what shampoo suits me the most.

hot springs

I like to take a bath or soak in a hot spring. There’s nothing more wonderful than soaking in hot springs, especially during the winter. I think the hot spring is a great gift which given by the earth. For this thought, I appreciated that I was born in Taiwan. Although there are lots of earthquakes in Taiwan, there’s no hot spring if there’s no earthquake. Hot springs are good. I not only can relax myself but also my skin will become prettier and smoother. Other countries also have hot springs like Japan and Iceland. If I have a chance, I want to go there and enjoy soaking in hot springs.

strange dream

Today I waked up late. After turning my body over, I continued to sleep. And then, I had a strange dream. A giant gorilla wanted to catch my father, mother, and me. It happened around my house. I was very sacred that I might be caught and eaten by it. I ran quickly as possible as I could. My father and mother didn’t run the same direction like mine. However, the gorilla ran straight toward me. I struggled about 30 minutes but I finally was caught by the gorilla. While I was thinking I was going to be swallowed by it, it said it just wanted to scare us and it was a joke. I was so frightened that I couldn’t say any word. Then I woke up.

drinking milk

Drinking milk is good for our health. When I was a little girl, I drank milk everyday because I wanted to be taller. The result showed that it didn’t work. I didn’t become taller at all. Some of my friends laughed at me that the whole nutrition I got from the milk which only let my breast become bigger. Besides, if I drink milk without having breakfast in the morning, I usually get an upset stomach. After eating something, then I won’t have such an uncomfortable feeling. Although drinking milk won’t let me become taller, now I still love to drink it. I also like to add cereals into milk because it’s so delicious. I will keep drinking milk in the future.

picky about underwear

Last week Alice and I went to buy underwear. When I told her how I match my underwear with my clothes, I thought I was very picky about that. For example, if I wear black T-shirt, I will choose to wear black underwear. If I wear white T-shirt, the color of underwear I will choose is flesh-colored instead of white. Wearing white one; other people still can see what the color of underwear I wear. On the other hand, wearing flesh-colored one is in different situation. Sometimes, it’s painful for me to see a girl wearing white T-shirt but wearing black, blue or red underwear. I think it’s impolite. Anyway, I learned another skill to match the clothes and underwear. There’s a new type of bra, party bra. And then it’s okay to let others to see what bra I wear. They all have pretty designs and are a little bit like bikini. It’s much useful in the summer.

glasses

How many people in Taiwan wear glasses? I think the answer is lots of people. Many friends of mine also wear glasses. I wore glasses since I studied in junior high school. I thought that wearing glasses was interesting at the beginning. However, now, I hate to wear them. My eyesight was getting poorer year by year, so I needed to change my glasses after a period of time. Maybe that’s because I play the computer too long every day. Now sometimes when I see the blackboard; the words teacher wrote always are blurring. Therefore, I bought a new pair of glasses last Thursday. I wish I had never need to wear glasses. Or I needed to spend lots of money in my whole life for changing them. Another reason was that some people said that I looked prettier when I didn’t wear glasses.

Japanese food

I won a prize in class last semester. The prize is that Simon and Stanley will treat me Japanese food. I thought they might forget it but I thought it didn’t matter. However, last week they told me that we were going to have dinner. I was so happy, and they also invited my friend, Chezzie. Actually it was that Chezzie told me the answer, so I would have the chance to win the prize. We went to a Japanese restaurant yesterday. This was my first time that went to Japanese restaurant with friends. The prices there are expensive, so I usually go there with my family. We had a wonderful meal, and I liked tempura and sushi most. I hope we can go out together again.

magic medicine

There was a medicine invented recently. It can let human beings’ terrible memory disappear in their brain. This medicine is used especially for those who suffer from disasters or have horrible experiences. Now it was tested only in animals, so the doctors were not sure whether it would invite side effect in human body or not. I thought it was amazing. If it can be used in the future, that really was good news for those victims. For example, if I survived from an air crash, I might be scared to take the plane again. After using that medicine, then I wouldn’t afraid to take the plane anymore. It was a good thing.

Shin Kong Mitsukoshi

Chezzie, Alice, Squirrel and I went to Shin Kong Mitsukoshi last Friday because that day was the first day of their anniversary sale. Of course, there were a lot of people. There was also a little traffic jam outside. We went directly to the counters which we liked. Squirrel and I wanted to buy down overcoats for protecting us from the cold. Or we needed to wear lots of clothes to keep us warmer. I thought that floor was the most crowded one. Chezzie said, “If there are lots of people in that floor, it means the products are cheap. If there are less people in that floor, it means we can buy nothing because they are very expensive.” I thought Chezzie was right. However, we didn’t buy anything at the end, except me, bought a pair of jeans. We all felt exhausted just in few hours. We said we needed to find another day to go to there again. Besides, thinking what we really need to buy before going there.
