Last week our class voted what to do for our class outing:visit the Singapore Zoo or go to the Night Safari (夜間動物園) .Our girls wanted to go to the zoo. And since we were in the minority,we lose to the boys,who all wanted to go to the safari. We got the admission rate for students,which was greatly since I still had enough money to buy a brochure about the park as well as anything at the souvenir shops. The safari was scary but a really fun. As we took the ride through the park's dark jungle,we could see the eye of many creatures looked out at us. Most of the animals there sleep when there is sunlight and waked up at night.

A ★★★☆☆
“Everyone finds a partner,” I say to the kids. We are about to start 8th grade weight training. I say the words to make the kids feel welcome when they come in. When the 8th graders walk in the door,I see the nervousness in their eyes. When I see them,I remember rnyseif years ago when I was doing the same thing.
I remember coming to Granger High School for 8th grade lifting. I felt nervous coming in thinking I would get lost. I also felt nervous to meet the coach. I did not feel welcome because everyone was bigger tiian me. I did not want to mess up (搞糟) and get laughed at by other people.
The second time I went there was a lot better than the first time. I was not afraid to walk into the room and see all the big people. I thought to myself, “If other kids can do it,then I can do it." I went to my partner and felt a little bit more confident. I was still nervous but I felt better. As hard as I tried not to mess up,it happened. Then a voice said, “Good job,you are getting better." I started to feel better hearing people saying “good job”, instead of “get out”.
When I come back to reality,I realize that the kid in front of me is just like me then. When he has finished his warm-up,I tell him “Good job,man,you are getting better." Once I start encouraging him,he starts to feel better. I also feel good about myself for being able to help him feel more confident. I can hear the students praising one another.
