31 Golden melody award in NCCU

  Golden melody award is a Music Award held by a student club, Golden Melody. This is my second year participating in the club and I've met a lot of awesome people and music lovers in the club. What we do is planning a Music competition for all the university students in Taiwan to participate. We invite famous judges and music performers to the event. This is the 31st years of Golden Melody Award and every year we are making changes to the planning of the event. Our ultimate goal is to create a stage for all the student bands and singers to shine a light on their talent. This year, we invite a lot of big and famous judges and the competition gone very well. Although the process of planning the competition from the start of the semester to the end of semester, it is worthy to see that our hard work paid off. I really enjoy the atmosphere of different student bands and singers on the stage, their music and their dreams are so beautiful. I am very proud to be a part of the staff of Golden Melody Award in NCCU. We helped a lot of young music lovers to fulfill their dreams and supports Taiwan's independence music.

Intern curator in the Ethno museum

This semester, I'm in a elective course called The Design and Formation of Museum Exhibition in the ethnology department. Students in the course all have a chance to plan an exhibition and the topic are not limited. From the start of the semester, my classmates were divided into groups and planned exhibitions different topics,such as Scout's patches, Logo designs, Traditional Chinese birthday theme, Instant noodles, Old glasses! My classmates are all very creative and planned amazing exhibition every week. And this week,it is our turn to plan the exhibition. We decided to plan a theme that matches ChengDa's 60th birthday. Our topic is The Ethnic Groups in Wenshan District in the Early Settlement Period. We collected information from an essay, and turned the maps in the essay into a 3D model. Also, we printed out some information for our audience to read. We spent all weekend on building our model and organizing information. What's more, our professor is very strict on the tidiness and the atmosphere. Therefore, we spent a lot of time checking important but easily ignore things such as the lights. I hope that everybody can learn something from our exhibition on the ethnic groups in Wenshan district. And I think being an intern curator in the museum is a very unique and once-in-a-lifetime experience!

Mother's day

Going home for the second time since February, I'm very excited to go home and relax. Although I have a lot of school work in May, including Spanish literature presentation, Museum exhibition planning and English readings. Before all the work rush to me at the same time next week, I think going home to see all my family are my source of strength. I took High speed rail on Saturday, and arrived at Tainan in two hours. My mom was busy so I told her i'll take bus home. I got off the bus and walk home, and I really enjoyed the easy and leisure walk through my neighborhood. After entering the house, I saw my twin sister and my brother on the sofa and my mom and dad in the kitchen. I know I will be full of energy next week with a wonderful weekend with my family. We had a small but warm-hearted celebration for mother's day.

summery of Akeelah and the Bee

  I really enjoy the inspiring movie a lot. Seeing Akeelah and her couch working so much to reach the goal, and the support of her friends and family. I like the part where they went to the regional and Akeelah's mom came and did not allow Akeelah to join the competition. However, Akeelah and her mom made up at last, and became a big support of Akeelah. On the competition stage, Akeelah's friend was trying to wait for Akeelah to come back to the stage, so he was trying to asked as much as question as he could and try to earn more time for Akeelah. I really liked that scene because that where you can see the true friendship of Akeelah and her friend. Apart from the spelling contest, the movie also depicted about the relationship between friends and family, including Akeelah's couch. I think that Akeelah is like a daughter to her couch, and she reminds him of his daughter. Although it was a painful memory for the couch, it also strengthen their beliefs and relationships. I really enjoy the movie and it is definitely inspiring!
