My Electives study

For my electives study I selected the 「All about OZ」,becoz I want to know and understand more OZ history ,I think it's gud 4 me.

我的選修課程, 我選擇了「All about OZ」(中文突然翻不出來),因為我想要對澳洲有更深入的認識,所以我想這個課程對於我有幫助的.

My teacher's name is Franz. He was born in Melbourne. and he is really funny.He teaches us a lot of things. I don't know before,For example. Like for goodbye we can say「Ta Ta」, for Thanks we can say 「Cheers」or「Ta」and for this after noon we can say 「arvo」

我老師叫Franz(念起來有點像法國).他是道地的OZ guy, 他是墨爾本人.然而他蠻風趣的(不過常常被我虧就是了~~常常讓他臉紅脖子粗).他教了許多我原先不懂的文化.例如 再見OZ都說「Ta Ta」、謝謝OZ 都說「Cheers 」or「Ta」…最特別的是after noon可以說「arvo」. 

But some words difficult to understand, like 「Take a load off 」this mean is sit down,becoz somebody use  backpack when they will sit should take off the backpack, so the word means 「sit down」,or like 「fair dinkum」 is means 「are telling u the true」but some words are really funny ,like 「yapping」is means 「talking a lot 」Then we learnt some history from long time ago. I know Australia is the sixth largest country in the world,and it has a  lot of unusual animals. like the kangaroo n koala bear.

不過有些字真的超難的,像「take a load off 」它的意思就是坐下,因為有些人背背包要坐下時都會將包包拿下的那個動作take off,所以OZ都這樣稱sit down.「fair dinkum」更難…它的意思竟然是說實話吧~~然而有些字說真的很有趣,像yapping 它的意思就是「說太多…多話的意思」,像我在課堂上常常跟同學聊天就會被說yapping ... 哈哈!!除了有趣的文字之外,我也知道原來澳洲是那麼大的島,是世界第六大…而且這兒我看了好多動物哦!!像袋鼠、無尾熊、還有其他的…

In the class I learnt that Aborigines have been living on the continent for more than 40000 years  ago.so  I can know more about OZ in the class. I really expect that next time I can lean more.

在課堂上我了解了阿布竟然已經住在這個大島有四萬年了(他們真的很嚇人).我好期待能認識更多OZ的種種…畢竟我好愛這個國家啊!!

Ngongo's Birthday

Today is my really important friend's birthday. His name is Ngongo.

今天是我一個很重要的朋友生日.他的名叫Ngongo.(超難發音的哦!!)

I met him 5 months ago. He's a really nice person. so I want to make a birthday cake for him. I never made a birthday cake for anyone before. because I don't know  how 2 make it.

Ngongo是一個很好很好的朋友,跟他相識在5個月前.所以在他生日時我想要做一個生日蛋糕送給他。不過我從沒做過啊~~因為老娘我又不知道怎麼做,不過做西點我真的蠻有興趣的啦!!

Then I asked my house owner.He taught me how to make the birthday cake.At first, I should go to supermarket to buy 1) Eggs、2)Caster sugar 、3)whipped cream,and 4) some passion fruit. When I went back my house . I was really happy to make the cake.

所以啊~~我就問我的房東,他教我如何做這個蛋糕。首先當然要去超市買1)蛋、2)糖、3)料理用奶油(生奶油)及4)一些罐頭水果。所以當我買回來時…我開心的要飛了起來。

Actually, I think it's not too hard to make, but u need 2 wait a long time.

其實它沒很難,就是費工,要等的時間好長哦!!

When I brought the cake to my friend's work place. He was really happy n pleased. He told me. he never had anyone make a birthday cake 4 him before. sometimes I like cooking food for my friends . I think next time I can make different food for the others.

當我帶著它到他打工的地方,他好快樂又開心。然而他告訴我過去沒有人幫他做這樣一個生日蛋糕,所以他很開心。我很喜歡煮東西給我朋友吃,也許下次我還可以做點不同的給其他朋友試試咧~~
