THANKS

Hi every one!!!

How do you feel for the final week? I believe you guys are very exciting now because of many reasons. For exxample, some of you are waiting for finishing course to visit their countries; others eager to travel some places after a long period of study time.

For me, after I finish this course, I have a passort to be able to take university courses. However, I realized that to have good ability at English requires non-native speaking English study it for whole lives. Finishing EAPIII at the University of Calgary is just only a certificate for us going into university courses; it does not mean we are perfect at English. Therefore, we should contiue studying English for long time.

To me, this is a special blog because not only is the blog twelve of blog assignment, but it is also a blog that I would like to SAY THANK YOU to everyone.

During 6 months study at EAP program, this is a good time for me to say THANK YOU to all our INSTRUCTORS, particular for ANA, Dr, SENGUPTA, and D...r.... Scott. By the way, say THANKs to all classmates who have sharedtheir cultures, experiences, and helped improve English together.

Finally, I hope we will keep in touch and BEST WISHES IN THE YEARS to COME for every one.

ASIAN CUP

Hi guys,

WONDERFUL ! This is the only word which we could cheer to the Vietnamese Soccer Team.

Historically, the Vietnamese Soccer Team has not pass to any finalround of Asian Cup.

However, it was different because the Vietnamese Team was co-held Asian Cup with Thailand,

Malaysia, Indonesia. Therefore, the Vietnamese team did not play qualification round. The

Vietnamese team is the only one of four holders pass to quaterfinal; as a result, won UAE 2-0,

tied Qata 1-1, and lost Japan 4-1. This is mysterious of The Vietnamse Soccer. My country

seemed to be walked up during Asian Cup. People converged on the city centers to share their

emotions of the Vietnamese Soccer.

When I am writing this blog, my team is playing to Iraq at quaterfinal. We hope we are able

to further of this Cup, and continue our nice dreams, which we have dreamed for a thousand years.

Friday, JULY 13- My first Stampede

Hi my classmate !!!

As long as I am living in Canada, this is my first Stampede night at Calgary. I believed that some of you have experienced at the Calgary Stampede. How did you feel for the first time at Stampede? .... Anyway, you could tell me about your Stampede persperctive in comment section. ... For me, I acctually did not plan to going Stampede tonight; however, I got a call from my friend. He said, " dress up, I will drive you downtown and have fun there." "Yeah, why not, this is Friday night," I replied. On time, He went to pick me and we went to downtown, the he said we go to Stampede. At first I confused, and I did not want to go Stampede because I heard that the Stampede is just for kids and gamblers. However, when I was there, my old point of view was lost, because not only kids were there, but adults and seniors were also there. Second, when I entried the fair, wow, a thousand of people are there. People were enthusiastic to play games, eating, drinking...... and line up for game tickets.
I spend a couple hours there, and I really enjoyed even though I did not play any game. Perhaps, 27-28 years old, I am old enough to not play nay game. But I was happy there as I was happy to look people playing. Before, I wen home, I had change to see firework at the fair, It was nice. My friend and I forgot to bright Camera; therefore, we could not take any picture.

What time is it now? oh, 1.46 am next day, I've gota go to bed. See you guys !!!

FAST FOOD RESTAURANTs go MUSHROOM !!!



Hi !




Will you use fast food or cook meals if you are hungry? The answer is flexible. the U.S. and the North America are the kingdom of fastfood wherther Asian countries are not. Therefore, fast food restaurants have mushroomed popular in these countries. Why is there different?




First, fast food is one of the American customs. The Americans do not want to waste a lot of time cooking their meals. Fast food has often been prepared a head of time so that it can be served quickly. In contrast to the Americans, The Asisans spend long time preparing and serving each meal in a day. I might add there more and more women enjoy working outside as a result they are so tired to make a meal.


Plus the fact that when the Americans plan to go somewhere for their picnics, they don't have to worry about food prepared. They rather rprefer to buy fast food in restaurants.




Not to mention the fact that most Americans afford to consume fast food for the cause that it is not expensive.




In short, fast food restaurants continue developing. People don't have much time in contemporary society, so quick meals are reasonable choices.

NUCLEAR ISSUE !!!

Hi Guys,

Nowadays, Energy is problematical of many nations because their industrial developments. In these countries, the demands for energy are very huge and rapid while their powerful systems are not adequate to supply. There are many ways to produce power supply such as hydroelectric plant, wind energy, tide energy, solar energy, thremo-electricity. However, nuclear power is the most potential energy that many nations have been persevering to successfully achieve their energy plans. These demands are reasonable; however, they are a lot of hidden hazards because the line between produce engery, which is used in industry, and produce nuclear weapon is very thin. When every nation races to built nuclear systems, this world is a big dymamic store, and it is able to explode. Therefore, we should innovate new energy plan.

HOW NICE BANFF IS !



Hi you guys,




Have you ever been in Banff? It is a small town; however, it is a wonderful town. On the way that I went to Banff, I visted Lake Lousie one month ago. It is a mountain lake, so it is so imazing. I really enjoyed the scence. This is the mighty mountains. So I took many pictures here.

Banff is a town far away from the Lake around half hour driving. I think it is classical town and its beathtaking scenery impacts me. I arrived at Gondola telpher. I rode and it took 8 minutes from on the ground to the top of the mountains.
After explore the mountains, I went down to enjoy the water-falls. It is another beauty of the scenery.
I do not want to be a tour guide man; however, I would like to tell you my feelings about how wonderful Banff is ! I hope you guys will visit there or return there sometime.
