There isn’t really much to say in my boring life. I was quite energetic yesterday, but today I became the same old lazy me. Life is not easy. What do I have to do to stay in a good mood every day?
Day after day, I kind of forget what’s the purpose of keeping this diary. What’s the meaning, if there is any? Am I just writing for writing’s sake?
Perhaps I was hoping I could do more things because of this? I know I should go out more often and do different things, but I just can’t. I can’t explain why I am so lazy that I didn’t even go out to get dinner. Instead I just had some instant noodles, which is unhealthy as everyone knows. I did have time and money, but I just didn’t know what to eat. Before I would go to the night market, wondering around, and finally pick something. Nowadays I just eat whatever I can get and it would be nice if I don’t have to go out.
There’s something wrong with me. I won’t deny. Why can’t I live just like normal people? I’m sleepy. Still found sleeping the most enjoyable activity in my life, ha ha. Sleeping will make all the things that bother you go away. Tomorrow is another day. Good night.
先前講過同級比較 Tom is as tall as John.,比較級 Peter is taller than Tom.,今天要看的是最高級,用在三個人以上,三件事以上 Peter is the tallest in class.。沒有很難,要記住的是最高級前面需要 the ,形容詞或副詞本身要加 est 或 most ,通常會有個界定的範圍。剛剛吃太飽,有點笨笨的啊,講話都講不太好,請見諒。

補日記通常是前一天太累了,一整個不行就昏迷去了。昨天其實也沒做什麼,就跑到七堵(是有點遠),去參加同學學校的禪繞畫的課。有點像畫曼陀羅一樣的概念的意思?潔西第一次看到是一個朋友畫的,非常的美,第二次看到是在 House of Cards 紙牌屋裡面有幾個喇嘛去白宮作畫,真的是太厲害了,看他們那樣好像很不經意的卻創作出美麗的圖案,好強。不過我想那是需要訓練的。
