Mahjong

Today, I am going to share a good activity for you to kill the time. That's Mahjong! It is a game for four players. Actually, it is also a gambling game. But, for me, I usually play with my friends just for fun and without paying money. In the game, each player is dealt either thirteen or sixteen tiles in a hand (depending on the variation being played). It is diffcult to learn through just the words. However, I want to tell you Mahjong is good for health! A recent study by doctors in Hong Kong concluded that extensive playing of the game can induce epileptic seizures. Studies by doctors have also shown in Hong Kong that the game is beneficial for individuals suffering from dementia or cognitive memory difficulties, leading to the development of mahjong therapy.


I didn't play with my friends for long time, so I must play with them during this summer! ha xddd

Different kinds of McDonald

I believe that McDonald is not strange to all of you. But the thing I want to talk is there are many different styles' McDonald in this world. In my Speaking and Listening class today, we discussed what differences between different countries. Although I don't like the "American style McDonald", I pretty like the "Hong Kong style McDonald". We have the totally different menus with the American one. The most favorite food that I like is "Shake Shake Fried". They will give you a small packet of seasoning(there are several kinds of flavors you can choose), you put it into a paper bag with french fries, then shake the paper bag until you think they are mixed. It is really delicious!! But they are not sale every day, just a period per year. And I know that they are on sale now!!! I really want to have one!

By the way, not only McDonald have different kinds of style, but also PizzaHut, KFC, BurgerKing, etc. As different countries have different styles!


Here is the official website of Hong Kong McDonald:
You could get more details about that. Enjoy it :)

When I was young...

One day, I saw an article in the internet and the title is "History Of Barbie". That article reminded me Barbie was my favorite. I used to play Barbie almost every day when I was young. I really really love it at that time! Everytime I saw one that I had not ever seen, I always asked my mom "Could you buy me one more, please?", even though I had already got three or four Barbies at home.(Ha) Also the clothes for Barbie, I bought a lots too! But after I was in secondary school, I didn't play it anymore. They became part of my history. And now, I don't ever know where are they gone. Maybe they were given to someone by my mom!

How about you? Have you ever owned a Barbie when you were young?

Easter


Easter is an important annual religious feast for Christians. According to Christian scripture, Jesus was resurrected from the dead three days after his crucifixion. Many Christian denominations celebrate this resurrection on Easter Day or Easter Sunday (also Resurrection Day or Resurrection Sunday). For me, the most symbol of Easter is Easter Egg.(xdd) The oldest tradition is to use dyed or painted chicken eggs, but a modern custom is to substitute chocolate eggs, or plastic eggs filled with confectionery such as jellybeans. As I remembered, I used to painted the chicken egg when I was in primary school. That was quite interesting. Both chocolate eggs and plastic eggs are also my favorite!
By the way, Happy Easter!

"Sport Day"

Last two days, I really got many of funs. It seemed back to the time I was in high school. These two days reminded me the Sport Day during the five years life in secondary school. Normally, every high school in HK also has four teams which is identify by four color. We would be assigned in the first year. During the Sport Day or Swimming Gala, we would separate the whole school into those four teams. Everyone would try their best to get the point to their team. In my school, the cheer squad would be the main event while Sport Day. Although there is only one winner, everyone enjoy the day! As it is the day to let us show our endeavors. "Athletes' spirit always come first in any competition", competition is important, but, I think, friendship is more important than it!

Happy new

The day before yesterday, I got a happy new! That was really a happy new. There is an adage which is "You get what you pay for". Everyone is equality, no one is except. I know how much I pay, so I agreed with the result :) Although I am not the one who is the best, those who listen the new feel happy too. That's what I want and what I expect. I wish I could also try my best in the future!
