Have you ever studied abroad? Maybe it is an amazing experience, especially when you come to Australia as an foreign high school student. You can have a lot of fun there, especially on holidays.

There are many festivals in Australia. The most important one is Christmas. Each year, the summer holidays at every high school last about two months from the beginning of December to February, which covers the Christmas time. Since it is a long holiday, most foreign students in Australia love to fly back to their home countries to spend the time with their families and friends, but a few students still stay in Australia during the holiday to get part-time jobs. It is quite easy to find a part-time job at Christmas.

Students often take part in another major social activity. They go to the beach to have fun in the sunshine. The summer in Australia is from December to February, so going to the beach in December is very popular among Australians.

Easter in March is another important holiday in the year. It actually combines "Good Friday" and "Easter Monday". Almost every shop closes on Good Friday. And people usually go to see Easter Show.

The Chinese new year is not a public holiday in Australia, so every Chinese student still has to go to school to study and do his or her normal duties.

Forty years ago, I was in Grade One. One day,I was asked to go to the principal’s office(校長辦公室). I was really nervous. When I pushed the heavy door open. I found my parents were sitting in the office,too. My father walked to me,with some of my drawings in his hand. “Why do you only use a black crayon(蠟筆)when you draw?” he asked.

I said nothing. “Show me to your desk,” said my father.

So we returned to my classroom. My father pulled out my crayon box. There was only one black crayon in it. “Where are the rest of your crayons?”

I quietly explained that I’d given all the other crayons to my friends. I shared my things with others as my parents had taught me.

Then I looked at my father, then at the principal—both their faces were red. Years later, I learned that my father’s face was red because of anger and the principal was red because he was embarrassed(尷尬的). When the principal saw all my pictures, he thought that I had a deep emotional(情緒的)problem. So he had called my parents in to discuss “my problem”.

In fact, I was too shy to ask for my “shared” crayons back. I didn’t stand up for myself!

That night, my father told me about the difference between sharing and giving. He also gave me a new box of crayons. He said, “These crayons are for you. I don’t want you to share or give these crayons to anyone else. ”
