Canadian Steve Jobs:
Kim Peterson [Reported by Tiffany & Echo,2013/03/15] Kim is a really nice kind person, sort of like Mr. Woods. We called Kim ASIAN JOBS due to the similar appearance of both Steve Jobs and him. First, let us talk about sports. He used to have an opportunity to be a professional ice hockey player. Unfortunately, at present he only can do some sports like ice-skating due to his broken knee. He was a diving instructor who has go scuba diving at over one hundred places. Maybe he still keeps his habit going scuba diving during his spare time. Reading is another hobby. It is deserved to be mentioned is that he is an anarchist although he like to read books about history and
ism which means no poor people or president should appear and everybody share together. Kim is also crazy about language and words. He can speak at least three different language including German, Japanese, and Chinese.

can try to study in his way sometimes to see if it works or not. Mr. Kim is a very gentle man who with white hair. His voice is very soft, he told us his teaching philosophy is “No homework, no exams.” he thinks if these two things make students hate study, it is not necessary to do them. He will give us some activities to teach me learn something, if you finish it and he think you already absorb the knowledge that he want you to know, he will give you an "A". Mr. Kim is also a good teacher who has rich experience, he can speak five different languages, for example, Japanese and French. He has stayed at 15 different countries. To our surprise, he graduated from 4 universities, they are Vancouver Island University, Simon Fraser University, University of Victoria and a university from Switzerland. Then, he told us he it is not the first time to go China. When we ask him some questions, he told much He has gone many cities in China such as Beijing,

Limelight Paradise Thailand
[Reported by Cherry 2014/3/19] Today, Thailand becomes a more and more popular place, especially, in the winter; people like to go to Thailand for fun. What is your first impression of Thailand? Many people many think “Lady-boy”(人妖). There are a lot of beautiful lady-boys. Every year, there is a large number of people go to Thailand, just want to see them. On this winter vacation I went to Thailand. Before I went to Thailand, I was afraid of regarding as lady-boy, because I am tall and people always think lady-boy has almost the same height as mine. In fact, the average height of lady-boys is around 160cm-165com. The ancient name of Thailand is Siam(暹罗). Bangkok(曼谷) is the capital city of Siam. The main religion(宗教) is Buddhism(佛教), so there are a lot of temples in there, which was built by the royal families(皇室) thousands of years ago. The most famous palace is The Grand Palace(大皇宫) which covers 218,400 m2. The Grand Palace contains The Hakri Maha Prasad(节基宫), Dusit Maha Prasad(律实宫), Amarin Winitchai Hall(阿玛林宫), and Wat Phra Kaeo(玉佛 寺). Al the palaces are made by gold and gems(宝石), such as sapphire(蓝宝石), ruby(红宝石), and emerald(祖母绿). It looks pretty luxurious(奢华的). When you enter the temple, you have to wear the shirt with sleeve(袖子) and the plants which is longer than your knee.Pattaya(芭提雅) named as The Oriental Hawaii(东方夏 威夷). Pattaya locates on the southeast of the Bangkok, cover 200km2. It is one of the most popular places in Thailand. This place
beautiful beaches, and pure seawater. You can go boating to go to the little island. There are a lot of programs that you can join, such as the banana boat, diving, and surfing.I highly recommend (强烈推荐)the handmade ice cream(手工冰淇淋). You can find there are lots of people sales the products in a motorbike. They made the ice cream at home. The ice cream has lots of flavor, such as durian(榴莲), chocolate, and strawberry. I bought the strawberry one, the taste is pretty pure. The mouth feel is smooth. Tom yum is a kind of soup which made by shrimp and Citrus Limonia Osbeck (柠檬叶). In that soup you can bring up all your taste senses, although it smells pungent(刺鼻的). To be honest, I do not like that very much, because the smell and taste are pretty strange. Wonderful trip, wonderful Thailand!
