The Way I Have Grown Up

  I haven't blogged for 2 weeks.  Because I don't know what I should blog.  That means I have no right topic to blog.  I don't want to just write something like that I have been someplace and have one nice day.  When I was a child, I was asked to write down daily stuff. But I actually didn't do as my parents and teachers'ask.  I can't remember why I didn't do that.  Maybe I spent all the time playing. 

  I am a happiness child when I was a child.  Almost Chinese child were asked to learn something like instrumental or painting or dance, etc.  I mean almost means 90%. Based on my classmate I have meet at primary school, junior high school and senior high school, even at EAP.  My mother want me learn something like other child, but my father stopped her.  At child time, of course, I like my father's decision. Till now, I still think my father make one good decision.  He didn't force me do anything that gives me a very good environment to grow up based on my own interesting.  One evidence is my parent's works is not related to science, but I have chosen biochemistry as my major.  Although it's just one decision about if I should learn something or not, but it actually means my parents give all choice of life on my own.  That makes me always think before I do everything. Because nobody tells me how to do it, and what punishment should I suffer if i make a wrong decision.  When I was a child, my grandma has broken a vase.  My grandma was hurry to get tools to clean it in case of I get hurt.  While my grandma was preparing the tools I was waling toward to these piece of glass.  My father just said you will get hurt if you step on it.  I kept walking but my father didn't stop me. Lucky, I just pick one glass and cut my hand.  That is my father.  He gives me all decisions about my actions.  I'm pretty sure it's very good.  But I still miss some chance because I cant control myself well, like I have played the last whole month before the college entrance exam.  Because the earthquake happen then school is dangerous, so we studied at home.  But I was spent all time on playing.  That exam is the most important thing before we were 20, but I messed it up.  Then my father asks me what you want to do.  I thought I make one decision that is choose one program. After I passed two year study in china, now I can study in U of C academic as soon as I pass the EAP program.  What I want to say is without my parents supervise, I may failed one time and maybe suffer the pain for a long time. But I eventually learn something.  

  Instead of told by parents without my own experience, I learn the things by my own life.  I fully understand it.  There is a very big gap between I want to do and I am asked to do, I know that.  The same things happen on the blog.  I do this because I think I really need this based on the theory we learnt on the class rather than Dr. Douglas asked me.  So I try to use right grammar, vocabularies and tense instead of just write something in order to finish the job.  I like this feeling.  I do this thing because I know I need it.  I'm not sure this way of education will work well on other child, but it really work well on me.
