Lots of things happened this week. The priority of my life now, except for studying, is planning for the school dance with the student council. Well, the progress of the dance is speeding up, a lot of things have been settled, which was a good thing.
And the second thing is the fundraising. We held a fundraising event in school about Yaan Earthquake, and we had a presentation for all the students and teachers in US High. After three days, which is today, we have raised 2, 300yuan in total. And in the evening, I sent the money to a foundation called One Foundation. By the way, the reason I chose One Foundation over Red Cross was because, recently the Red Cross Foundation doesn’t really have a good reputation in this society, however, compare those foundations, One foundation has a better reputation. I really hope those money can go to Yaan and I hope the money can help those refugees out.
During the assembly this afternoon, I got an award, which was a very big surprise to me. I want to say thank you to those teachers who has been supporting me and acknowledging my efforts, Thank you guys very much. And also, I want to say Thank you to Mr. Eaton, for challenging me all the time. I will keep doing my best in the future.
Really, it has been a long week. I have to get some rest since I am leaving for Taiwan tomorrow morning. Good night.
