Slack Off Day
I just finished two quiz today, and I decided to have a short break from memorizing new words. As you might know, Tomb-sweeping Day is coming and we’ll have 3-day-off. But I’m not going anywhere else, I decided to stay in the campus and do some learning for the coming tests.
By the way, I’m considering to take a summer school abroad, though haven’t decided yet where to go, do you have any recommendations?
Also, I just finished watching the movie——Never give up, I think I’ve seen this heroine in another movie about Bali. Both of them are good movies, I love them!

薄焼き餅
「そうなにまずい焼き餅は本当に食べられるか。」と友達が質問しました。「すこしまずいけど、食べるとき、心から温かさが感じられる。」
中学校の時、ある雨の朝、教室に朝ごはんを食べいこうとした時には、急に寒さが増したような気がして、身震いがしました。科学の宿題が書かないことをふいに意識しました。ですから、朝ごはんを食べないで宿題をしました。
15分後に「パタパタ…」という急に走る声が聞きました。「Aさん！（私の名前）」、Bさんは焼き餅を手にしたまま、上着をすこし濡らして、「朝食は食べないそうだから…」と言って、彼は焼き餅を私に渡すと、すぐに立ち去って行きました。ある瞬間、寒気は治まりました。その焼き餅を食べながら、「今日はいい日だなあ」と思っていました。
今は私たちが違う高校に入って、連絡もだんだん減っていきました。けれども、その珍しい体験は記憶の草原にすてきな友達の花が咲いています。

Our Family Travel Blog #13
We left London, but the view below was covered in clouds. I had wanted to show my daughters the white chalk cliffs of England, the White Cliffs of Dover, but unfortunately that didn’t happen.
We were supposed to be flying over France on our way to Prague, yet with everything hidden beneath the clouds, I had no idea where exactly we were.
I had been quietly hoping that coffee would be served on the plane, but all we got was mineral water and a snack, which was a bit disappointing. I didn’t touch the snack.
As we were about to arrive in Prague, my daughter pointed out the window. When I looked down, I saw patches of snow scattered here and there.

My Graduation Trip in Hong Kong
I still like my graduation trip even though three years has passed, so I'm going to write it down. Before going to heaven in the future, this journal can remind me of this pure and happy time.
In March 2023, I felt a bit nervous before heading to Hong Kong, because it was my first time to visit a place outside mainland China and I thought maybe I would encounter a lot of problems during this trip. However, all the people I've met in that city were quite friendly and warm-hearted. When I got lost on streets after getting off the train, as I didn't buy a local SIM card in advance, the pedestrians would show me correct directions. When I was too shy to make friends in the hostel at the beginning, my roommates invited me to join their lay-back chats. When Sunny (a Thai roommate) knew that I didn't have Octopus (HK transportaion card), he gave me one with lots of balance inside and let me use it. When we sauntered along the slopes in Central, I was heartened by Star's (another Thai roommate) words, "You can say NO to everything you're not OK with."
Besides the people I've met, I also love this city itself. I discovered a lot of different cultures here and I found that no matter what you wear, what you look like and who you are, people won't stare at others with curious and unfriendly glimpses. And in this wonderland, I could get rid of fear, insecurity and censorship temporarily (compared to HK, there are so many annoying restrictions in mainland China). Though Hong Kong has changed a lot since the protests took place in 2019, I still love it because of the openness and inclusiveness. Hong Kong once offered a safe place to tremendous opinions, so people could talk, read books and search for information freely. It makes me realize that freedom is our unalienable rights and no one can deprive us of basic human rights.
In the last morning, I wanted to say goodbye to my friends before leaving the cozy hostel, but all of them were having sweet dream. Therefore, I left silently. However, on the ferry to Macau, my emotions exploded like a volcano and I couldn't help crying. I love my friends I've met in that city, I still want to hang out with them together one day. I also love the freedowm in Hong Kong, which allows me to be myself with any fear and anxiety.

Tomb Sweeping
Many people wonder why it always seems to rain around the time of tomb sweeping day.
There is a folk saying: those who have left us are not truly gone.
They are hidden in the clouds, when it rains they follow the raindrops back down returning to the places they once knew so well.
We look at the rain outside the window and think it is just the weather.
But in truth, it carries the tears of those who miss us.
The rain falls to the ground, seeps into the soil, and takes our longing with it.
It delivers our feelings to them far away, so the rain is never just cold weather.
It is a bond that cannot be broken between two worlds.
It is our loved ones hidden among the clouds quietly coming back to see us again.
As Christians, we don't bow down to our ancestors.
Yesterday I went to the cemetery and wiped the tombstone.
Pray to God in front of the grave.

Tomb-sweeping Day
Qingming Festival, also called Tomb-sweeping Day is a traditional Chinese festival that honors one's ancestors.
It falls in early April when Spring begins.
Families visit their graves of their ancestors to clean the tombstones and offer food to show respect.
People also enjoy outdoor activities like flying kites and taking walks.
Eating Qingming snacks such as green rice balls is a tradition.
The festival reminds people to respect their family history.
Tomb-sweeping Day is a time to remember ancestors, so don't say "celebrate this day."
One year, when I was sweeping a tomb, I passed by another unnamed one.
I heard the voice of Namo Amitabha clearly.
I looked at the tombstone and found that an audio player was automatically playing there.
It's not scary during the day, but it's scary at midnight.

Keine Arbeit heute. Der Rücken tut mir weh, also bin ich zu Dr. Bones gefahren. (Er heißt nicht wirklich "Dr. Bones" aber ich nenne ihn so, weil er Orthopäde ist.) Ich habe den Knorpel in meiner Wirbelsäule zusammengedrückt. Zweifellos, weil letzten Monat ich meinen schweren Koffer durch Shinjuku-Bahnhof getragen hatte. Kein Gewichtheben hat er mir geheißen, und kein Jogging für eine Weile. Spazieren ist O.K. Jede Zeit, wenn ich bei Dr. Bones bin, trägt er ein verschiedenes Toupet. Es ist komisch.

Schlafrhytmus
Die letzten paar Tage arbeite ich an meinem Schlafrhytmus. Normalerweise meint man damit, früher ins Bett zu gehen, aber bei mir ist es andersrum. Ich möchte später einschlafen, um dann auch später aufzuwachen. Früher war ich morgens voller Energie und bereit, die schwersten Aufgaben aus meiner To-Do-Liste abzuhaken. Morgens bin ich zwar immer noch voller Energie, aber jetzt will ich nach dem Aufwachen nur noch herausgehen und irgendeinen Sport treiben oder kleinen Spaziergang machen. Meine "produktive Stunden" zogen zum Abend. Dazu kommt, dass die meisten Veranstalltungen, die ich gerne und regelmäßig besuche (z.B. der deutsche Gesprächsklub), eher spät stattfinden. Es wäre daher deutlich bequemer, wenn ich später ins Bett gehen würde.

What I hate about my native language
I love my native laguage which is arabic, but I hate that we don't talk the real arabic "the fusha".We talk in our dialect which is far from the real language. I hate that this language is not really talked, we learn it, we read it, but we never use it like it is.
Every arabic country has it's own dialect and they're far from themselves, it's not like english for example, even people who learn arabic they don't really find people who talk it, we all know and master that language but no one talk it.

Nouveau mot
J'étais entrain de réviser un cours de toxicologie et je suis tombé sur un mot qui est la maladie de PICA.
Je connais cette maladie, mais pas le nom, et j'ai trouvé que c'est quand les personnes mangent des choses non comestible mais de façon répétée et persistante, comme: le sable, la craie.. etc, et le nom PICA est extrait des oiseaux pies qui ont le même trouble alimentaire.
J'ai entendu que cette maladie est connu surtout chez les femmes enceinte au début de grossesse normalement sa s'appelle la période des envies ( j'ai fait la traduction littérale je sais pas si c'est le bon mot), et normalement c'est due aux carences notamment la carence en fer.
