In these days, I have always thought if I got a second time to make a decision, should I stay away from alternative military service. The answer is clearly no. I am willing to do it even though I waste one year lifetime. Indeed, my friends, who are graduated from Baruch College with me at the same semester, have obtained great offers from companies. Even some of them have already gotten amazing jobs. As for me, I am stuck with alternative military service. But, the thing is that I am born a resident of Republic of China (Taiwan). I shouldn't keep my responsibility away from while speaking up that I am a Taiwanese. So, I came back. And, fortunately, I have selected a good school,  the people of which are very nice and adorable. Besides, I get much of free time in the evening. In fact, as long as there isn't a student in school, I am free. It could be a great chance for me to catch up something that I may need in the future. I took excel book out of drawer and retrieve the skills that I learned before. Sometimes, it is good to stay in a point rather than moving ahead blindly.

I have served my responsibility in Shuang Feng Elementary school for one month. To be honest, I am not sure what I am actually doing now, taking a one-year vacation or being an army, even though many of my friends said that I was not an army. One month ago, I told myself to be well-prepared for children, especially for those who have trouble studying English. In the course of first month, I found out an issue that some students hate studying it, and just hate it. Since I haven't had any experiences before, I, for sure, have nothing to do with it. Back to my childhood, I don't like to study English either. As my teachers talked about vocabulary, I slept. While talking about grammar, I slept deeply. What about listening and speaking, I was out of class. Yeah, I didn't like it cuz no freaking motivation. Until I was told to apply Business English Major in Da Cheng High school, I was obligated to pass the course. I remember that was freaking horrible time for me. I don't even know what is there or they. When my teacher gave me an English name, I couldn't spell it at the end of class. Fortunately, I met up a great person, who helped me in the class, test, and homework. As long as I asked him, he solved it for me. My English was improving tremendously. What I am trying to say in here is that learning English in Taiwan is mandatory. No incentives, however, is a big problem. I can't enjoy learning the connotation of English in school and after-school program. The only thing I HAVE TO enjoy is freaking examination. So, it is very hard to let those children as mentioned above love studying English because they don't like it truly. They don't why they have to learn it at school. I think the biggest problem is education itself.

I feel a little sad since Taiwan lost the game against Korea, but at least I saw the improvement of Taiwanese players within these years. Taiwanese players are able to make solid contact on 150+ fastball. Also, they can     get strikes to be fouls while two strikes, which let them have more opportunity to get a hit and then to have more scores. I am really proud of being a Taiwanese and seeing those players improving their skills year by year. I believe that they can head to USA with an advance toward to final round, trying to let other countries know us. We are the Best. Taiwan!!!!

Omg, I just found out that would be very easy to see my last post in the website as long as surfers key "Shuang Feng Elementary school" in the Google search engine. I shouldn't say something bad about the accountant, lol. To be honest, she is a great person and treats us very good. I sincerely thank her for taking care of me. But, sometimes, I don't really understand if a person insists on making up a "super formula" to make things easier, even that actually makes harder. I can realize that she likes to learn stuff and put them in the work. However, the "super formula" used in excel needs a pretty good front end, such as an accurate data entry. By doing so, the "super formula" will be executed in an amazing speed. I believe that is too hard for us to re-create a new worksheet now because of too much work. As I estimated, there would be 22 worksheets in one documentation. At the first worksheet of "the documentation", there are names, address, date of birth, and total number received from......(whatever, I don't know). Until now, it seems freaking normal, but here the weird is. She kept typing names and numbers in other 21 worksheets. Fortunately, she knows that she can use copy and paste to complete them within 1 minutes. But, shit happens as always. Approximately 15 worksheets have new names required to add in, which sounds very easy at first time, We just need to insert a row and to type in. But, when we have several worksheets, it is so-called "fuck-up". Because of this experience, I re-do the first worksheet and make a formula on second worksheet. And then, I set up the auto-update. Hence, now, we only insert at first worksheet if we need, and then other worksheets will automatically update. Next time, I will make pivot table and sort out the data.

Btw, I will start my after-school program on March 11. I don't know how many students will come and how much they can get into. It is very stressful "liability" that I have to pay in mandatory. If children shout at me, playing in the classroom, even bullying  others, I can't walk away because I am serving for alternative military service. Love, service, duty, order<=yeah, four stupid words push me being a great guy, showing a smile face all the time. In hope of a wonderful experience is my best wish now.

How to teach starters about A, B, C, D, E, F, G...etc...<=just like a sign, no intrinsic value to talk about.
