For most of you, Chinese National Day is still two days away, but for me, from today’s on, till October 7, are what i called holidays. I went home last National Day because of the date of moon festival was durning the holidays, and we all know that this year’s moon festival had just passed, so there’s no reason for me to spend about two days to go and back from home.

Talking about this year’s moon festival, nothing special actually, but our college has a good tradition that is the college will give you the something to drink, to eat for free of cause, to make you feel at home. No exception, a moon cake, beverage, an apple and a pear were given to every living person who spending their festivals in campus. Though these sweet stuff are not expensive, but at least the head of the college management think of us, at least they fullfill our basic needs to celebrate the festival, at least they know what moon festival means to a Chinese. As far as i know, no college even the college next door provide such kind of “offers” but ours, so if your college have such kind of “policies”, please let me know :razz: 

I took my friend’s computer back to dorm, besides, two games are being downloaded, one is called Resident Evil 4(My Bro. said it was really an exciting game), another is called Need for Speed Carbon(My favorite race game, and i love race very much, even though i don’t have a real car), so there’ll be definitely an interesting holiday.

I took part in PETS4 last Saturday, when we two (my friend and i) went to the bus station at about 7, saw those “PETS lovers” like me, were all waiting for the buses, a bus came about 10 minutes later and you can called it “on time”. Actually, we have enough time to reach our destination on time, but the truth was we almost got late because of the traffic jam, finally what we afraid most was not about the test itself, is about the possiblity to took part in the exam, funny right?

It’s a week after now, what i want to say is just another 3 months+ waiting for the result’s coming out. But one of my classmates told me that i have passed the oral part, i was surprised, how she knew that? Then she told me sth., then i knew sth..Don’t ask me what sth. is, because i can NOT tell you anything about this, top secret classfied I have also signed up for BEC Vantage early this week, less confident, but more rational. After all, it might help in my coming job hunting days.

We (my friends and i, all together 6) went to Mysterious Island, which is a part of Ocean Spring Resort, yesterday afternoon. For me, i played all the games that i should have played in my childhood but didn’t fulfill untill yesterday, games like carrousel and bumper cars. And now, i can tell you “I went to amusement part before!”:arrow:

On our way to school, i talked about my anxiety of the graduation to one of my friends, to my surprised, he has the same feeling as me. That is we both don’t know what we can do, what we’re capable for, that is, we don’t have the objectives. He went to a large state-owned enterprise in Shenzhen, of course, on some “relations” basis. Finally, he was told that need a undergraduate degree and he didn’t have it. Even a child in China knows a undergraduate degree is nothing but a standard requirement papers amount those mountain-like documents, besides, certificates or degrees, thses are not so important now. So, you can see the requirement for my friends is very low, also, the importance of “relations”.

I have passed the ICD test(I mentioned before, see 1 | 2 | 3), both the theory part and the document-making part. A little bit excited, of course, after all, it costs me 380 yuan to took part in the test.

But another test is follow on this weekend, it’s PETS4, i’m not sure whether i can take it this time, i didn’t make efforts to memerized the vocabularies, i didn’t do the simulate tests, most importantly, i didn’t speak English for a while, and now i have problems to communicate with others by using English. So, i worry about the spoken part too. Whatever i need to do, it’s been too late…
