the New Teacher

Today when I came into the class, I found a new teacher, named Peter. He is a very nice gentleman. He told us that Joseph is in USA now and will come back on September 6, 2011. We all think it is OK and Peter is also a good teacher.
Next Friday, Peter will take us to the Centre Island. I am very happy to hear this news. When I had lunch with my daughter this noon, I told her about the future trip. My daughter is very happy too. Since we came to Toronto on April this year, my daughter had to make new friends. However, she can not understand English. So, it is difficult to make new friends for her and she felt a little lonely. She is very happy to hear of trips.

Receiving Money at school

Hi, mom, it's me. No, I am fine. Really, I am great. It's...well...yeah, OK, it's about money. You are right. I mean who know books would be so expensive. So, kind of running on empty. I would be home for a while, so any help would be really appreciated. Well, it's actually really easy. If you had a computer we can do right now together. OK, first log into online banking. Now look for Interac Email Money Transfer and click. Great. So you know my email. You just type that in and then the amount. I love you, mom. Now think of the security questions, something on those answers too and press "send". It's Interac banking? so it's totally secure.
Oh, hi Dad. Things are great, really good. Daddy, I was wondering, did mommy show you how to do Interac Email Money Transfer?

About Belief

As we all know, in China when children begin to go to school, all the teachers and all the textbooks tell them there are no gods. Political textbooks tell Chinese children that human beings came from monkeys and Darwin's theory of evolution was definitely right. From elementary schools to universities, every child in China was taught that there are no gods or ghosts. That is to say, most Chinese people have no religion and they do not believe in any gods and the Communist Party wants the people to believe only in the Communist Society .

When I first left China and for Chicago, my husband wanted to take me to a church, which he often went to. At that time, I did not want to go to any church because I did not believe in any gods. I definitely thought there were no gods and that human beings came from monkeys. One day my husband and I took our daughter somewhere and we were very late going home. Since we had no car at that time, we rested outside a church. My husband said that it was too late to go home to cook, and there was a church, which he often went to.

Our Family's Physical Check

Yesterday, our family went to see our family doctor because we had made an appointment with him several days ago. Our family doctor gave us a checkup. Our appointment time was 10:45 am, and the doctor told us that my husband and I could not eat that morning because of the blood test. My daughter was very happy on that morning because she could eat breakfast. When we came to the family doctor's location, I felt very hungry and even a little faint. After we had waited a few minutes, the family doctor began to check us one by one. Fortunately, our family's usual check was OK. Then the doctor told us to go to Midland Road to check my husband's and my blood. I heard that in Canada the nurses' skills are not good, so I felt a little afraid to see them. However, the nurse's experience made me feel very safe. When all our checks were finished, we were very happy to go home.

Fun Guide

This summer I registered for swimming programs and a summer camp for my family through the Welcome Policy. The nearest Recreation Swimming Centre is Agincourt RC. There, I helped my daughter to register for a preschool swimming program. My daughter was very happy and had a great time there. Although my daughter still cannot swim after several swimming classes, I think she will learn to swim in the near future. And I think having a fun time is more important than learning swimming for my daughter. I also helped my husband to register for an adult swimming program. At first, my husband did not want to take part in the swimming class because the class time is on Saturday mornings. He wanted to sleep in late on Saturday mornings rather than to get up early to learn swimming. However, after he attended the first class, he is now happy to get up early to learn swimming. At the same time, I registered for an adult swimming program for myself.
The summer holiday is a long time for children, so I helped my daughter to register for a two-week summer camp near my apartment. Now the summer camp is finished, and I think my daughter enjoyed this camp very much.

My Beautiful Pictures

Last Thursday, I went to downtown to attend Caribbean BBQ. The above are our beautiful pictures.
That day the weather is very hot for Canadian. But for me, the temperature is OK because in my hometown the temperature is higher than that day in summer. In the BBQ, I saw very different culture from China. There were many beautiful Caribbean ladies. We took pictures with these ladies. They are good at dancing and singing. And they enjoyed lives very much.

A Future Field Trip

This afternoon the English teacher let us to write an article about a future field trip. For me, I did not hesitate to say that I wanted to go to Niagara falls in Toronto. Although I have been near Toronto for three months, I have never gone to the falls. So I want to go to see it very much. I can imagine how wonderful it is. I want to go with my family or my friends together to enjoy this fun time.
