A memorable trip

Have you ever travelled around the world without your parents take care you? I have got one of this experience and it worths to be remember for my whole life.

I went to Taiwan for half a month in June, 2014. I've planned for a long time to go to Taiwan with one of my best friend after I graduated from my Secondary School. And lastly our dream came true.

In this journey, we went to Kenting, Kaoshuang, Taitong, Hualien, Taichung, Ilan and Taipei these seven places. Different parts in Taiwan got different local condition and custom.

Taipei

During this trip, I have learnt many things.

First of all, I must book and contact all the hostels by myself since I am the one to contact people outside. There were quite messy at the beginning but lastly I recovered.

Also, I have to maintain a good communication with my friend. As I am an emotional person, I have to calm down if I have different opinion with my friend and find the way to solve it. This trip help me to build up a better characteristic.

Taiwan is a very beautiful place. Especially people there are very nice. Someone said 'The most beautiful view in Taiwan is people there. I strongly agree with this statement. We got help from many people and recover many difficulties.

Apart from Hong Kong, Taiwan is the second place I love the most in the world. I am going to plan the next trip in Taiwan. Which town you recommend me to go? Just leave your comments down this blog!!!

An experience of practicing in a band

Today I am going to talk about a special experience for me.

I have learnt classical guitar for four years since I was in Secondary 3. When I decided to learn guitar, I did not know how to classify electric guitar, acoustic guitar and classical guitar. I went to the nearest music shop and joined a summer class. However it was not the guitar I wanted to learn. I need to play music in classical but what I actually want to learn was how to play pop songs!

acoustic guitar

Luckily, the skills of classical guitar can also used on other type of guitar. So I started to learn acoustic guitar on my own.

In Secondary 4, I started to be a fanatic of band sound. I hope to join a band one day till now.

And I got a chance from my friend in last month.

Last Sunday, I went to her teacher's studio and learned some skills on band, including some technique  skills and the play the song together. Teacher was funny and he has very deep knowledge on all instruments.

Ｗe have played this song together smoothly.

During this experience, I found that the power of music is very large. We all find peaceful when we put all our attention to play well. Especially this song is about the value of freedom, it is a kind of learning for me.

Apart from the leaning in classical guitar, I found a totally different way when I face to music. Unlike a teacher sitting there and teach you how to play every note, these kinds of practice make me feel so well.

I hope the next training come faster.
