Reflection: I take charge of posters. It's a good opportunity learning how to make convincing prints.
                 I am also a character of this video. I impersonate a passerby and give the beggar money.
                 I also play the role of the elder who picks up recycle trash. It was quite fun during the process of making a PSA commercial.

A New Start

On the day of New Year's Eve 2011, my family to had decided to go to Sun Moon Lake in Nantou County.

When we got there, the place was too crowded. Therefore, we decided to take the shuttle bus, yet there was a long line at the station. We waited for about an hour to get in a bus. It was tiresome, but we quite enjoyed chatting with each other. Then we finally reached our destination, and we bought something to eat afterward. We walked along the lake under the beautiful moonlight. Again we had an enjoyable conversation. Soon it was about to the end of the day. We watched the amazing firework display and countdown together. I felt so impressed and excited. To keep the feeling we stayed up overnight and waited for the sunrise. At break of day, however, the weather was unstable. It was a cloudy and gloomy winter day so that we were not capable of seeing the first light of day. Some of my family got disappointed, while I thought there was another totally different atmosphere. The fresh air refreshed me and I could sense that I was full of energy. As I saw the gorgeous scenery, it brushed my tiredness away. Thence, I picked up my camera and captured the amazing view. Although it was cold, I felt warm and peaceful as I saw the attractive scenery.

In the following years I was able to find the tranquility in this picture every time I was upset or depressed. More than that, it represents an unforgettable experience to get along with family in my life. It was a brand-new year, a new beginning and I was sure that there must be many new challenges for me.

The thief destroyed the wall of kindergarten with tools. The victim of this misfortune expressed their astonishment about being a object because they are not a big company but just a nursery.
