EAP 145 - YANG, Fan - Week 6 3/3

This is a good week because I am ready to watch movie on this weekend.  "Monster University" and "World War Z" are very good movie.  I will go to watch them this weekend.  By the way, the time is already get into week 7.  I think there are lots of works still need to be done to improve my average score such as essay draft B and last presentation.  The good thing is teacher gives our some readings to do  which can make our score 5% higher.  This is a very good news for me, and I will do it seriously in order to make my score higher.  The bad thing is this week IA has pretty long video, and I really don't want to watch it.

Memory is the thing which can truly hurt someone heart.  Today is the day when I break with my previous girlfriend 5 years ago.  I don't know why I still can clearly recollect her appearance and what she had told me.  I have been to Canada for 1 and half years.  Before I came here, I can saw her once a week, so everything no big changes.  Until, I have 1 and half years have not seen her.  Last Saturday, I damaged my leg.  It was very painful.  I set on the ground and could not stand.  The first person I think about is her.  I don't know why, probably she is my first love.  The impression affects my deep heart.  I still need to stay Canada more than 4 years.  I guess when I finish my degree and come back China, you may already got marry with other person, and nobody know I still love you like the initial.

I think I am a emotional person because I am usually affected by outside events.  Many things can make me happy or sad such as today I ask teacher question.  Sometime teacher's attitude makes me feel she doesn't want to answer my question; for example, today teacher showed us a article then she asked us for opinion; however, after I tell my opinion she didn't say anything then ask other students' opinions directly.  There was no any comment for my opinion.  Actually, I don't care if my opinions are right or wrong but teacher's attitude like nothing was happen.  That makes me feel nothing happen, and I guess this also is the reason why students don't like talk more in the class.  I don't know Canadian culture and Mexican culture, but I know if other people say something and the audiences don't give any respond, this is very impolite in Chinese.  Anyway, I will keep silence in next 3 weeks as quiet as other students.  Only talk at presentation discussion time.

I am really unhappy today because my average lower 6%, and I think this should not happen.  I really confused about how teacher count our score and how engrade measure the average score.  Amber put the score like 0/10.  I don't know which section did she put.  OK, if I just assume it is in writing section which has the highest proportion in average score 10 multiply 30% just around 3 points.  Three points lower my average score 6%?  I think that is impossible.  Even I get 35/50 in my writing I can't improve my average score 6%.  I think that is extreme unfair.  Moreover, the NAA, IA, Bedfore works students put so much on them, and students even can't improve 6% in average score, I don't know how can this 10 points make my average lower 6%, and even it needs to multiply 30%.  Anyway, I am very unhappy today because I don't think it is fair even I know the rules are not only target me.

Time passes so fast, now it is already week five.  I don't feel very good about my class because of my average score.  Average score combines many different tests' grades which have been done in my daily study.  Some of my grades are very low, but some of them are very high.  I think some tests are very hard to get high score, and most of students get 50 percent.  I don't think I am smarter than other students, so I always try my best; however, the results are not as good as my expectations.  In fact, my goal is getting 65 percent for my average score, but now I think this goal still faraway.  The lucky thing is I am not going to give up because I think I can do it.  Even if now it is already week five, I still think I can get around 65 percent in my average score.  After Amber put my Bedford, IA, NAA, scores, I think my score will become around 68 percent, and it will make my final test become easier.

I don't know why recently I start worry about my university application. The U of A always respond students result so slow, so I don't have any confidence about my application.  They ask me for some documents, but after I send documents to them, the result I usually need to wait for around 2 months.  However, after 2 months they usually give me some more items to do then I need to spend two more months again.  That is a big problem for me because of the time limitation.  On my schedule, the time when I pass this course is around end of July.  I need to prepare my luggage or something may also cost few days; therefore, when I arrive Edmonton, the time probably already August.  After I arrive Edmonton, I think I have lots of things to do such as getting familiar with that environment.  Anyway, the rasks are hard for me, and the time is the most important issue. 

EAP 145 - YANG, Fan - Week 4 3/3

I feel so tired during this week.  Presentation, essay, IA, NAA, blog and blog discussion are too much to finish.  Especially for essay, I usually want to do my best, so I always review it again and again.  I really hope someday I can get 35/50 in my home-take essay because it can tell me I have promotion from last term until now.  Today is a busy day, I have IA to do and two paragraphs of my essay.  I don't understand why this term the died line for our essay is on Monday morning.  Time is very hurry and too short to finish it.  If Amber could give us longer time, students would give her better works.  Anyway, I have never had a day like today's busy.  Monday I finished my NAA. Tuesday I worked on my Bedford works, Wednesday I did my blog and prepared Presentation.  I don't think I have rest time in last 3 days.  I guess I don't have faults because the works are too much; however, large amount of homework force me to progress.  I willing to do that.
