I will use google docs because it is very convenient, and private too. You don't need to worry about whether someone you don't wish to see this file to see it, beacause they need to have your permission to view the file. Also, like Sam, when people change the file, you can know immediately, instead of recieving e-mails that you don't know whether it is the most up-to dated. It makes life much more convenient!

I think I am a global student, because I have gone to many places in the world, and have seen many different cultures and religions, which each place differs from each other. I have experienced different living styles in different part of the world, which gives me knowledge that is not learnable from books, but only from experience.

April 10th, 2009 Long or short?

I prefer 90 minute classes, because you are able to learn much more about something in class, instead of dividing it into sections for each day, which you might forget.

I could make a difference in reaching the UN goal of poverty and hunger, by raising money, or giving leftover food to people who need them. By raising money, we could have a flea market in our school, or in a park, or a market. We could send the money we earned to Africa, or maybe to some charity in Taiwan. We could give them the money so that they could buy food, or we could just give them leftovers, or even fresh food we haven't touched. Like in our school, during lunchtime, there are many leftovers that are recycled to probably to animals, or maybe even throwned away. If people took the food themselves, they could predict how much they would eat, and finish it, so then there wouldn't be that much leftover in the garbage, but untouched food still in plates. We could then give poor people the plates of food, instead of leftovers that are all mashed together with our spit. That is a good way to help people who are facing harsh conditions.

April 6th, 2009 My UN goal

The goal I would like to work on is to eradicate extreme hunger and poverty, because many people are dying every day because they don't have money to buy food to eat, and it is getting worse these months because of the economic crisis. I think that this is the most important one to work on, because even though some others for other categories are dying too, but the deaths of those aren't as high as the deaths for this category. It is cruel to watch people die in front of you, especially when you know that you have the power to save them, so even though if we aren't able to help everybody in the whole world who is suffering from poverty, at least we can save a few lives by either donating money, giving them jobs, or teaching them a skill so that they can use the skill to get a job.
" Be the change you want the world to be." Ghandi
That is the change I want the world to be, so that is what I will try to change.

April 2cnd,2009

It was a relaxing holiday, because I mostly did things that I enjoyed to do. But, it was also a bit boring, because I didn't really go anywhere, I stayed at home most of the time. I completed four items from the list. Even though my holiday was kinda boring, I still had fun, and can't wait for summer break, which is a way lot longer!!XD
