Physical Activity

At the first term in GCA, I did many physical activities to improve my personal health. I love roller skating and I'm really good at it, so I went roller skating as my physical activity. In order to learn more skills I learnt skating with a specialized coach.
During the activity, I didn't enjoy it at all!! Because I couldn't keep my body in b balance, and I fell down again and again. My body continue to pain and the coach seemed to be angry with me. I became sad and was afraid of skating, not only because falling but also because the coach. The coach soon realized my change, he came to me to teach me skills hand by hand. I even could feel the temperature of his hand, and I felt warm and not afraid at all! I told myself that I must do it well and don't let he disappointed. Through this process, I learnt how to insist.
I thought I have gained a lot from this activity. The coach told me his experience when he learned roller skating. At his time, he wasn't as lucky as me, his family was so poor that could not afford to buy a pair of roller skating shoes for him. So he need to collected bottles and did work for others to earn the money, it cost him 2 years! While he owned his first shoes, a new problem appeared, nobody could teach him. In order to achieve his goal, he learnt skating by himself. His words shook me and I thought I should cherish what I have now!
According to learn roller skating, I become more healthy and I learnt spirit from my coach. I think this will be helpful for my future and my life becomes more colourful and meaningful since I learnt roller skating. This experience also fits my personal goals. I wanted to be healthy and I deeply hope I can learn something and know some interesting things, and this process really did!
Life is valuable, good health will help to make our lives more fantastic and everyone could enjoy themselves with healthy body.

School Club Activity

At the very young age, I was crazy about dancing, but I didn't have chance to be close to it. However, when I came to GCA the older students told me that they have Dancing Club and they wondered if I wanted to join in it. Of course, I soon became a member of the club, and I really learnt a lot in this club.

I didn't receive any training in my childhood, so at first I couldn't do it well and I felt shame because of myself. When I was in a bad mood, the leader of the club came to me and gently asked" What's wrong with you?" "I can't do well." I said sadly. Then she thought for a moment and said" You know, not everybody is good at something when he was born. The same as you, you just need to practice more. Believe me, you can do well!" "Really?" I asked doubtfully. She noded her head with a great smile. With her support, I practiced hardly and never gave up. Finally, I took part in the ending show and succeed. According to that I learned to persist when you face the difficulties.

I think it is a right decision to join in the club, because I gained a lot from these activities. Such as during the process I trained myself in order to improve the resolution. On the other hand, now I can dance hip-pop well and can relax myself by dancing. Also, more people would pay attention to me and I really enjoy the feeling. To my friends now I'm a girl with a striking personality.

Through joining this club, I think the most important thing to work with others in GCA is to be modest and pay attention to others' suggestions. Our club's strength is when we meet difficulties all the members will unit together, and try to save the problems by ourselves. However, since we want to do all the things on our own we may waste our time and it seems that we are over confident.

In my club, I always be active to all the things and I sometimes help the leader carry the things if we have show. I think this club is very meaningful no mater to myself or to the whole GCA, because if students join in it, they can improve their skills and be more active. Then this attitude will help them study. All the things will become a fantastic circle.

The last thing, this club also matches my personal goals. I want to be watched by others and I really achieve it by joining thiclub. How wonderful the life in GCA!

Volunteer Experience

Last term, I helped Ms. Mitschrich to do some volunteer work. We used our after-school time to do paintings and handicrafts for the Dram Club in order to let them finish the work on time.
I think this experience was very meaningful, because I learnt a lot from the team work. Since most of the members are my classmates we became more friendly and care more about others after that. According to this we believed that imposable is nothing, if we united we can succeed 'cause we're the hope of the world!
I also gained something from the process. When we made the phony pig I try to cut a piece of hard and big paper, but it was difficult and I hurt my finger carelessly. Blood soon came out, I was so afraid that I just stood there and cried hopelessly. At that time, all my friends came to me, some of them help me calm down, some of them took me to the doctor of the school, and the others tried to dress a wound. My heart was deeply shook, tears ran down my face and even I could feel the friendship around us! After finished the plenty of work, the teacher thanked us and we all became confident because we realized that we can do everything!
However, we didn't think our work were perfect because we wasted some time and at the end we worked hard and quickly, everyone became tired. So we organized some advice. As collaborative workers, we should arrange the work fairly and plan the time correctly. To help each other is also important. As individual, the only thing we could do was finish our own work.
In the group I was asked to make the lovely pig and to paint the props, it seem to be an easy work. In fact, I an not good at painting,so I spent lots of time painting the props. After this process, I learnt to be confident and I will be more concentrate.
