Hi, this time I’m gonna use English to write about the recent halloween event. It’s for practice in daily writing, and sometimes another language can offer a different kind of feeling for things.
It has been called late halloween actually because the party is supposed held at the end of October. However, I’m not sure whether the senior group has some difficulties with it, and they delay the schedule of it. It is still good, even better than previous years. I have to admit that it is very surprised that their work, very impressive. As a super senior at this school, it is really glad to see everyone is energetic, and most importantly, the spirit of Moonshot has been greatly passed.
It recalled my mind of the halloween party in 2020 and 2021. The time with the “original moonshot” was always fantastic in my memories, with love and embracement. Friends, faculties and families were left with generations and generations. I thought it was the punishment from faith, the lesson from the live, and today I finally realize it just the natural circulation of the world.
People indeed, are leaving all the time, but there are always new incentives in my life. I shouldn’t waste my time feeling pity about the past. Instead, it reminds me to focus on the future potential. Since life is changing, it is a great opportunity to learn from past experiences, and to know that things I felt were impossible before are really happening, which indicates the high possibilities for diy the life.
I’ve done great makeup, custom, and styling. I have new friend groups. The school has its new and fresh blood to be built. Congratulate myself of come out of the memory trap.
I gradually feel very powerful with myself and with future. The school life is interesting. World history and AP seminar are the two best classes in this school year, and it helps me to know the beauty of academics. Also, I’ve got lots of affection from boys, unsurprisingly. Although it might not be very fit for current popular thoughts, but I have to say it enhances my confidence and motivation of going to school enormously! I’m shining and pretty everyday, not only about my appearance, but also internally.
Winter is coming, but my life is super hot!
To record something practically, I’m recently learning about empires throughout history, and doing my own research about the hijab, which is the veil used by Muslim women. It offers me many new insights to think about patriarchy, the relationship between the West and the East, and the difficulties in maintain stability of administration. When I preparing the presentation for ruling Mongol empire, I suddenly realize ruling is such a hard topic. Even though I tried to avoid all kind of risks, and considered multiple aspects including the population, environmental backgrounds and so on. There are still factors out of my knowledge base affecting my decisions. For example, I never thought Mongols don’t have written language at first. As a Chinese, that is totally out of my imagination since we have a rich culture began thousands years ago. Also, I didn’t expect that empires are actually not that perfect as them seens to be. They are having low capacity and autonomy, and many problems with the so-called “details” with the whole glory story. Roman, Mongol are the two gave me most shock about the charm of other cultures. As for British empire, I’m not that interested in the modernization and industrialization. However, it still reminds my the invisible superiority of westerners that I treated it as a natural thing before. Moreover, the successful of British guides me to rethink the China empire. The insulation of China and the negative aspect of Confuciansm are the topic I didn’t realized before. Because in my previous education experience, nobody denied the Confuciansm.
As for the veil, obviously, it is my personal emotional knot, which is the harm of patriarchy. I’ve a bit of tired today, so in short, the discoveries of this task is basically about again, the superiority of THE WEST. It let me think about my academic career. Since I’m gonna go to US for college, the understanding of their culture might be decisive for me, and for the future.
To conclude, life is good, and I’m building my own paths to get closer with dreams.
