What a lazy day!!! I woke up at 11AM.
My roommate was keeping sleep. I admire her now!

I tidied up my phone pictures after lunch until Olivia and Alic asked me to buy a gift for Jenny. I bought a desk light in Robinson's Mall before buying the gift. Then we went to SM Mall and bought bracelet which carved Jenny's name.

I also bought gifts for my friends Vans and Sophy.
Olivia played store-owner's pet ......(I were SCARE)

Now! I have a desk light for studying at night. I 'm too happy to forget sleep! I have a blog to log about sports(Marathon's World), I typed data and pictures on it. Last month, I run 118km and rode 30km. This week, I run 23km. This result is not bad, the bad thing is time at 4AM right now......

I felt good for running this morning.
[ 10km | 1:05:00 | 6:30/km ]
But I can feel my physical strength is declining. Maybe I will get tired when I run 20km, because  I haven't run over 10km this month! It look like that I can train for 30 days before Cebu marathon, the fact is only 2 weeks! I will check total mileage this month.


I'm lucky to regulate class schedule. Henry told me I must go to the office to play a game with some one who also chose the same class and tutor. The officer and me waited a long time for them, so I won without playing.


At night, ILP's students went to Green's Pizzeria for Jenny.
The XXL size pizza is really surprised!





I'm getting fat /_\

Super Typhoon HAGUPIT is coming. I have been here 3 weeks and it's the second! It's different from last one, I think that's extremes with the Philippines typhoon!

In my original plan was running 21km at Central District IT Park on Sunday, if it is not raining very hard, I will execute! I usually spend 2 to 3 hours of running 21km, so the plan is executed on weekend. I hope HAGUPIT don't hurt the Philippines and go away in peace.

Super typhoon often come to visit Taiwan in summer, but we have high mountain to stop it.

There is a bad news from my family.

My older brother's wife sent a message to me that's about my uncle's wife. My aunt hasn't slept a long time, so she takes sleeping pills every night. Then she likes to drink. She always gives a reason for herself, as this case, she drunk for degrading sleeping pills!

Now, the doctor datermined she is insane who has lost her mind.
If my aunt sings "Am I Wrong?", I will answer yes immediately.


I discovered a fun thing with family title.
Dad's family title and Mom's family title are different in Taiwan. For example, Dad's brother we call "ShuShu", but mom's brother we call "JiuJiu".
I guess the culture of countries that all people lives together in the same building in Taiwan. If all old man call uncle, we usually confuse who do you mean. But occident doesn't.


** family relationship in USA **
grandmother    grandfather
mother    father
aunt    uncle
sister    brother  /cousins
daughter    son  / niece    nephew

aunt's husband = uncle-in-law
uncle's wife = aunt-in-law
sister's husband = brother-in-law
brother's wife = sister-in-law
daughter's husband = son-in-law
son's wife = daughter-in-law

Guy Uses Olive Garden's $100 All-You-Can


The holidays are a time to give back and care for your fellow man.
This guy embraced the holiday spirit and used his Never Ending Pasta Pass from Olive Garden to spread some holiday cheer.
He handed out pasta to homeless people in his community who were hungry and in need of a hot meal.
It was a pretty selfless act and a perfect use of the Pasta Pass. Seriously, no one can eat that much pasta.
by Dorothy: What's different with although.
Though, it should be noted many believe this is all a viral marketing ploy by Olive Garden.
But, if it ended up feeding some needy souls, who really cares? Check out the heartwarming video above.

Heroic German Shepherd Takes Bullet To Save 3 Children From Gunfire


Noah the German Shepherd, who died November 28, was a hero in the eyes of the children who adored him.
The now-deceased dog is being praised for saving the lives of three youngsters and their mother after an angry driver opened fire on their Chevy Suburban in an Atlanta strip mall.
Conflicting reports say the family was either an innocent victim of a fight between two infuriated motorists or followed into a parking lot by a driver with road rage.
Either way, the attacker brought out a gun and began firing, bullets shattering the back windows of the nearby car.
Noah reportedly leapt up from the passenger's  seat of the SUV, taking a bullet that could have hit one of the children.
He jumped out of the window and chased the gunman’s car briefly before limping to the alley behind the shops.
There, he died of his injuries.
Sgt. Gregory Lyon of the Atlanta Police Department told NBC,The members of the unnamed family owe their lives to a very dedicated dog.
Rest in peace, Noah.

I like this age of technology.

I downloaded some APP from GooglePlayStore that is about "SpeakingEnglish" and "English Grammar".

I can take my phone to study anywhere cheer for new technology!

I type content of every class to Google cloud after finishing. It reads easily and helps me to review.

Another important point that could be read from my phone, I don't take many books and study at any time.

By the way, I'm a good girl today! In fact, I have pronunciation class with Ryan at 8:30PM that's just only 4 days, I can't go anywhere at night~

* Ryan is ILP president.

It's awesome today!

I run 6 km in the gym at 6:30 AM, although I drunk last night. I got two amazing things.

First one, my weight is 69kg! I guess maybe I drank too much everyday, so lost water from my body! Another is that my level test score is 55! This result is over my expectation, so I'm glad.

I went back to gym when I finished class. At this time, I trained muscle for one hour and went to massage shop ~ I can get a good sleep!

I give up drinking today finally.
