Easter egg hunt
Wow putting on the Easter eggs on the tree branches...isn't it a dangerous action. I mean what if the wind blow throw the branches and the forked egg fall?
About the basketball tournament
Do you know why we sent girls to the boys' team? That's because first of all Buzz can't really hurt his fingers, remember he is the accompanist of our competition, he really did a good job!! Next, I know some of the boy didn't really wanted to win, and we can't get to 4th without all the girls on our team, especially Nini and Red, Nini even read through a whole book about strategy of basketball. And when you see Red on the basketball field...someone said that she is fighting with her life, she was hurt many times, but she knew she had to go up no matter what, because she's one of our best basketball players. One time when she was competing with 108, a boy who had the ball came and just bumped her, she rolled a distance across the field and bump into the basketball stand. Though we didn't win the first price, but we did a good job and we were all proud of 120.
Singing competition
I think many people already wrote about this. So I'll just describe the part that's special. After we sang we were talking about how we felt, and when I was on the stage I can feel the stage shaking and my legs shaking too, I was afraid that I might even fall (luckily I didn't) , they said the stage is shaking because they were all shaking, too. And Buzz said he was nervous but he know he can't let his hands tremble when he's playing piano, so he made his legs shake harder, and he said when he stepped on the pedals he can't take his leg off, so he just keep stepping on it. And another thing after the competition, someone posted a little mean words on "靠北中正", that's where you post mean things about a person (classmates or students) in the school or something else. Someone said the competition is a boring activity, and he or she thinks it's not fair for us to win all the price and he or she thinks that we won only because the judges were on our sides. But we all knew we did a great job! We were proud that we work together and eventually made our efforts pay!
Campus cafe
You'll like this place, it's fulled of baseball. You can see clothes hanging on the wall and big screens and TVs on the wall all playing video about baseball, and there's also good music there, I think they used stereo in their restaurant. I went there with Samuel that day because we went and ate dinner together and then we separated and went to cram schools individually. This is his first time in Campus Cafe, and he was surprised like me when the first time I was here.(I'm with Melvyn that time)

Dear Doris,
ReplyDeleteyour letters are getting better all the time!
Is the Campus Cafe near the school? is it all upstairs, of does it have two floors. I see that the decorations are all US sports teams.
After a few letters, i finally figured out how the basketball tournament worked. Basically, the girls played the first half, then the boy/girls team played the second half. All thing considered, its amazing that you were able to finish in 4th place. i know that a lot of the credit goes to Red and Nini.
i like your description of the concert, with everybody so nervous that the stands were shaking. i may borrow that passage for the newsletter. Two people have sent me the You Tube clip of the concert, and I thought that it was amazing. You should all be very proud!
Keep writing! I enjoy your letters.
