Hello I am Ben and I hate Taiwan. Finally, another brake has come and I can't wait for it. I still don't get what the point is for next week's classes. Those Monday classes are useless and a waste of time. On Tuesday, I don't even want to think about going to school, but yet I have to go. I am forced by my grade to do the talent show because we don't have much of a talent in this school. It is simply ridiculous, how the HELL do you force people to do perform at the talent show?! I am so mad I want to rip my crazy head OFF! This school really needs to get their mind right. But anyways, I wish I can move away next year and go back to Cerritos, where I belong. I am getting tired since I am still a little sick. GOOD NIGHT.

Today was a great day for me. I am fully recovered from the fever I had yesterday. Thanks to many of the supporters I had at school, they probably were the most to give thanks to. Today was great except for our math class. Ms.May is a total retard in my opinion. I believe that she does not make reasonable choices. For example, two weeks ago Benson and her had a fight and Ms.May was being unreasonable. Benson was not talking in class, he was just humming. "Benson, stop talking in class, do you want to go to Pamela's office?" Ms. May asked. " I wasn't talking I was humming a song," said Benson. "Then go to her office," said Ms. May. I believe that she is just bias towards the lower educated students. GOOD NIGHT.

Today was a bad day for me. I had a fever in the morning after Mr. Dahl's class and I felt horrible. I am still having the fever, but I am dropping my temperature, which is a good news. When I finally went to the doctors around 3:30, I was tested to be okay, but the doctor said that if I hit a fever tomorrow and it goes away and I hit another fever, using that patter, I might have the new disease. It scared me and it is still scaring me right now. I hope I recover tomorrow and go to school so that it shows that I do not have the new disease. I need to go rest now, as the doctor told me to sleep more. GOOD NIGHT.

Hi I am Ben and I hate Taiwan. Today was a busy day for me. First in the morning I had Mr.Dahl's class, which was hell today because I had to do his final tests. I was really happy to get it over with today. I see that many of my classmates, especially the girls, where very high today because we got two new students. Catrina Chen who was here last year and some other girl that I don't know and won't ever care to know. I don't even know why people get excited to see new students, I just plainly don't care. Unless it is someone I know from the states I wouldn't care. Anyways, we are almost done with the filming of our English project! I already saw some parts of the editing by Tony, and it was a AMAZING! I can't wait for the finishing product and who it to our class on Wednesday. I am getting tired now GOOD NIGHT.

Hi and I hate Taiwan. Today was a casual day. Although it was a bit messed up. I signed up for the talent show and I am going to perform my beat boxing skills. Hopefully I won't get too nervous and show everyone my talent. I have been training on beat boxing for about two years now. I love it, but my parents always says that it is just spitting at the microphone. I sometimes prove to them that it takes skills by asking them to do it themselves. They still believe that I should play the violin at the talent show instead of beat boxing. I hate how everything is violin to them, as if nothing else is good. They also want me to be good at swimming so my college application would look good and full of sport credits. I hate that also because I have no interest in swimming nor in basketball, which was their second thought of sport if I quited basketball. Another thing I wanted to add today was that every time I play a game, I notice that my mom always complain all the way through, no kidding. And when I go do my homework her mood changes to a very good one. Why can't I have some fun? Why does it harm my parents to let them let me play for just thirty minutes everyday of the weekend. I don't understand. Another thing I personally hate is that my mom won't let me go to America and live with my aunt, Doris. She is a nice person! She loves me and loves to take care of me. I love her too and she is my favorite aunt. GOOD NIGHT.

Hi, I am Ben and I hate Taiwan. Today was not a very enjoyable day. It is great to see the sun come out, but today was just not good. We had the Basketball class final game today. Our team lost more than 25 points getting 18-42. How embarrassing is that? Andy, Albert, and I worked so hard to make this final game great and to win it. Instead, the other boys in our team are too lazy and feminine to play the final game. Instead of taking the game seriously, they took it as a joke. They giggled and randomly shot the ball and didn't really care about where it went. When I did not score a point, they blamed me for my bad accuracy. How ironic is that? I am sick and tired of this unfairness. But yet I can't say that because the world is unfair and there are many people out there that is more sad than me. I am getting very tired now. GOOD NIGHT.

Hi and I hate Taiwan. Today was a very bad day. I am sick and tired of my math teacher, Ms. May. She doesn't even correct the homework herself. That explains her constant giving homework. She piles up all the homework on one day and I just found out that she doesn't even take time to correct our homework. She just gives the homework to her T.A and gives her T.A to correct everything. Even our final exams, she is just going to pile the final to her T.A and just let the T.A correct it. I have asked and made a survey for asking people in her class if they like her. The liked status remains a 0% till now. Nothing she teaches makes sense. I am sick and tired of random hired teachers that don't know anything about what they are teaching. One time, she was teaching, and then, she forgets what she was teaching and we had to remind her. And than another time, while teaching in the middle of a lesson, she apologizes for teaching us the wrong thing. How stupid and ridiculous is that! I am not an immature person, I understand that I can't blame it all on the teacher. But seeing that my survey is correct that 100% of her students hates her, we can blame her on many things. I hate the fact that she gives everything to her T.A to correct for her. Anyways, besides that madness, the day was all good. I caught up on all my Expository Writing final drafts and many other home works due. Hearing that Tiger is leaving the school and Catrina is coming back makes me sick. I want to kill myself. PAS seems to grow worse and worse everyday. I hate it, I just hate it. Taiwan makes me sick, SICK! SICK you hear me! I want to move away, but I can't because my parents won't let me. I am F*&@(& sick of this! I am tired. GOOD NIGHT.......

I miss America and I hate Taiwan. From now on, I will put this sentence until I don't have to stay, here, in hell anymore. On Friday, I went to school and nothing much happened. I couldn't wait to get home because I wanted to play some AC: Brotherhood. On Saturday, I restarted my memory for AC:B and finished the game in less than 5 hours. I got a best record among all my PS friends and I was very happy that day. Today I woke up and played some free roam and was having fun killing random Borgia guards. If anyone is curious on why I hate Taiwan, here it is.
1. Annoying recorded messages blaring on megaphones over and over again.
2. The screechy nasal sound of Taiwanese shouting into a cell phone when you’re hung over.
3. Taiwanese language in general
4. Probably the world’s worst music
5. People feeling the need to stare at a computer or TV in every possible situation
6. Having to dumb down your conversations to banal pleasantries with everyone you communicate with
7. The smell of Bien Dang on the train and listening to some guy slurping a piece of 7-11 cooked pork down next to you.
8. Being asked the same questions by everyone you meet.
9. Generally awkward socializing.
10. The pollution
11. Horribly bad fashion misses
12. Not a whole lot of art here
13.  bad techno music.
14. Guys taking pictures of themselves and teasing their hairsprayed hair
15. People in general taking pictures of themselves
16. The general cluelessness about art, culture etc. in general. (Where else on earth can Air Supply still sell out a concert and Dylan can’t find a venue?)

I did not post this, but all of these, 100 percent match my thinkings. There are no more than these. The rest of the missing numbers do not match my thinkings of Taiwan. GOOD NIGHT.

The week went by so fast in my eyes. Today's morning was so cold, I fell asleep in less than five seconds after waking up. Sadly when I fell asleep, my mom woke me up right after that. I did not get mad because I don't have the mad thing when I wake up. When I went to school, my smile just went to a frown. It is not because of the school, it is because I hate the Taiwanese community. Today, Cerritos High School ( the high school I was suppose to go to if I stayed in America), just finished their dance off finals. I watched it on Facebook and it seemed pretty fun, I hate how our school can't be like that, but I can't blame the school either. The popularity and the population is just too little. Today was a hard day for me since I have to do the MUN final project that is due tomorrow. Brandon, surprisingly, did not come to school today. It is his first day that he did not go to school. I wonder if he is able to go to school tomorrow and present our MUN presentation with me and Tony. He also had the responsibility for making the poster, but I guess he is sick so he is unable to do that. I will have to tell Mr.Wahlgren tomorrow. I am getting tired now. GOOD NIGHT. :(

Today was a fast day. In Mr. Dahl's class we did a great outline time. Although many of us were getting off topic, I just simply had to remind them to get back to topic. Mr. Dahl laughed at us because we couldn't figure out the rules if rock, paper, and scissors. I am acting a grandfather as the narrator and Tim's father. Today's history class, we just finished talking about Gandhi and just got to the Opium war. The Boxer group is a group of Chinese rebels against all Christians and most of the British people. They killed many innocent people who was doing nothing back to them. I finally gained back my B plus in expository writing class. I also got 100 percent on the test for Expos. Writing class. I hate how all the home works are all given at the end of the semester. I have to work for so long today for MUN, history, English, and Algebra 2. I am getting pretty tired and I have tutor now. GOOD NIGHT.

Today was a casual day. I find that time goes by so fast these days. Tomorrow will be Wednesday and next would be Thursday and then Friday. I hate how time is going by so fast. I made a deal with my mom today. The deal is that I get four As and the rest B in order for me to go back to the states. I agreed so I'll have to work hard, and I can't joke about it this time. I will have to remember to bring books and listen in class now. Especially in Algebra 2 and English, i'll have to work especially hard, since these two classes were the only class that I got C and below. Right now my brain is fully functioning onto getting good grades. I usually procrastinate, but today, I finished my homework early. I never felt so relieved ever before! Well, I have a tutor class now. GOOD NIGHT.

Today was pretty fun. I woke up to realize that it was eight in the morning, which is quite late in my daily routine. I went and turned on my computer and went onto Skype. I had a tutor lesson with a teacher from the states. The only way to have a class was with Skype. In the tutor lesson, I learned what LOG means in Algebra 2. I also learned a few formulas such as LOGabx= xLOGa times b. using this formula, I did many questions on the Algebra 2 workbook. I then went to my PS3 and played Assassin's Creed Brotherhood and enjoyed the hour of fun. I went to an amazing buffet for lunch with my grandpa and we ate a lot. I came back home and played on the PS3 again and did some other homework. I came back to Hsinchu from Taipei and currently working on my journal. I will later be crafting my own Assassin's Creed hidden blade. GOOD NIGHT.

Today is the third day since the school started from the Christmas break. The Christmas break went by really fast and Vietnam made my Christmas break a great one. But when I came back to Taiwan, my face was frowning again. Well, I thought to myself, I couldn't be too dramatic with this. I have to face reality, I told Jeremy that he needs to face reality too. Anyways, school just started again and the PAS mode just popped into my head right when school started. Nowadays I am trying to be more positive with my thinking of living in Taiwan. But it is just too horrible, especially when you have a girlfriend in California. I really wish my relationship lasts with her, since long- distance relationships are really hard to grasp on. I guess life is going to be casual for my next semester. GOOD NIGHT.
