Physical Activity




Physical activity is very important for everybody, good activity can keep us health. As a teenager, everyday I do lots of physical activity, such as biking to school, play ball games with my classmates and have a walk after supper. But the activity which spent most of my time is biking.
My home is far away from school and my parents both get up very late, so I must go to school by my own. The distance from school to my home is about ten kilometers, I should spent one hour to go to school and back to home at all. On the other hand, I have enough things to write on my planning portfolio physical activity log. Everyday I come to school at about fifteen to seven, and arrived school at a quarter past seven. During this distance, I learnt a lot. The traffic in Nanjing is so bad, especially in morning and afternoon. The main reason is the population is too big. Everybody go to work at the same time. I need to bike very carefully, or I would crash somebody or something. I have this kind of experience before, and it wastes me lots of time. I am not only ride bicycle on my way to school, but also join biking club and have an activity every week.
I often play table tennis ball with bill in the underground bike park. He plays better than me, but we still play together because it is our hobby. We usually invite other classmates come to play with us. It should be much fun than only two people. Of course, we also play basketball and football. Although we can not plat it well, we still interested in it and often play with others. Badminton is one of the hobbies that I most like. I joined badminton club at the beginning of the term and join the activity at first three weeks. Because of the hard work, I had not continued my badminton club’s activity. Before I quit the club, I play with them for three times in Nanjing Normal University—the place where we have physical education last term.
Human’s life need physical activity to keep. Our body is doing physical activity every second , we need to lat the energy out of our body because we eat food everyday and got much more energy than our body need. If we do not let them out, we can not keep our body health and we would get fatter and fatter, nobody like fat. I think I do enough physical activity everyday for myself, but this holiday, I did not do it as much as before. So I felt tired everyday and do not want to eat much food. It could make my body bad, so I need to practice a lot when the new term beginning. Ride bicycle, I will continue to do this kind of physical activity and keep myself more healthy. I hope the other people could also do it.

Club activity

















When i came to Grand Canadian Academy, lots of new things that i had not join before. Club is one of them. I have lots of hobbies, so i joined many clubs at first, such as badminton club, table tennis club, game bar and biking club. But the most interesting club i think is biking club. I have joined about 4 times club activity. We went to Xuanwu Lake, JiangNing suburb, Fanshan and so on.
Every times we felt very tired, because of the long distance, but we all felt excited because of the good atmosphere.The longest distance that we have bike is 80 kilometers, from Nanjing to Fangshan. We spent about 7 hours to arrive and back.
At half past nine, we muster at the gate of the school, there are 8 person join this longest activity. We prepared lots of thins that we maybe need during the activity. Water, food and map. A quarter to ten, we began our travel. We all felt relaxed at the fist one hour. But when we started to travel on the national highway, we felt much tired than before. A big reason is our mind is hopeless. When we ahead, we just see the long long road and had no end. We did not know when we would arrived. So we become negative, some people can not follow the first one. We often need to stop the travel and wait for them. But the people who we were wait for is still, although we wait for them, but they can not get enough rest and start bike again. It is a very bad complexion, we need to wait again and again. It waste us lots of time. Bill, who likes eating very much, although he is not fat. He ask David (the leader of biking club):" When we can arrived the restaurant? Have lunch is the most important thing in our life. Now, is twelve o'clock. We must find a restaurant. But here we are have nothing, just road and car." Although he is energetic now, his motivity is the restaurant. If we can not find it at moment, he would die (just kidding). Luckily, chat make us forgot the time and tired. We got the place at about one o'clock.
We found a native restaurant there, in fact, this restaurant was built in people's house. The food that they made is ok, but the environment is not so good, after all, is in the suburb, not in the city. After lunch is two o'clock, we went to the National Forest Garden and took photos there. Our visit is end there. The next big problem is return. We had to bike again that such long road. Luckily, we before the wind, so we felt much easier than before. We just spend about two hours to back to the school gate.
This long travel is end, but during the travel, we have learnt a lot. Everything that we can done, the only thing that we need is perseverance and brave.

Also have some photoes for Game Bar.

Be a volunteer





When we know that we need to be a volunteer for 10 hours, we all felt excited, because most of us have not done any volunteer work before. We thought about lots of place that we can work in. At the end, i chose to work in Michael's father's company--Nanjing Commonalty Library. The reason that i choose is that i can read lots of books when i do my work. Also, i can be more familiar with this place that i can find book easily when i come next time.
The first day that i come to work. I found that be a worker in the library is not easy, we need to do lots of things, such as clean up the book which put in the wrong place. Sometimes, the reader can not find the book that they they want to buy, at this time, they can ask the volunteer to help them. So the beginning is very difficult for us to do. We need to remember nearly every book's place in the library. On the first day, our boss told us what we need to do. During our work, we can not talk with our classmates, because most of us are in the same floor. If the employee asked us to help them, we must listen to them. There are five classmates work in this library, we have different work time there. On first day, we all working from half past one to half past six. At the beginning, we felt relaxed and excited, but a few hour later, we started feel boring about this work. We can not do any other useless things, can not talking. We all hope that the time can pass quickly, but it looks more slow than before. At the middle of the work, we were gotten a pair of gloves and a work card. The glove were used to protect our hands, because new books edge usually broke our hands. The card was used to prove that we are the volunteer of this library.
On second day, i got a very big mistake, i did not think about the heavy traffic, so i have been late for about thirty minutes. Luckily, the employee forgive me. Because it is morning and that day is not holiday, so the reader is few. We have more free time than yesterday. I started to red some book during clean up the book. The lunch time came, we should got the agreement of employee,then we can go to have lunch. Because of the library's special address--centre of the city. There is a KFC restaurant in the library. We just spend about 10 minutes to finish our lunch and back to work.In the afternoon, we help to move the table in the library and lots of new books from the book concern. This day become much easier than before. I back to home at 2 o'clock.
I have finished my 10 hours's volunteer work and earned 90 RMB.From this , i learnt that earn money is not easy, our parents provide such good environment for us to study, we should treasure it, and help them as much as we can.
