回来了

驾车旅行通常是很累的一件事,我们这次的旅行也不例外。人们通常说“我需要休假放松一下”,但是常常发现休假之后反而更累,是不是很滑稽?既然这样,为什么还要休假呢?不如一直工作就好了?原来,虽然休假之后身体会感到累,但是心情却是很轻松,很舒畅。我们的身体好像一只可充电电池,用一段时间之后就需要充电,然后才能继续发电;而和家人一起旅行是最好的充电方式,所以每年至少一次的旅行是非常重要的,不但对自己,而且对于家人,特别是夫妻之间的感情增进也很重要。我很感谢 神,自从我们到美国之后,每年燕和我都能够出去旅行一次。我喜欢开车,但是不喜欢看地图;燕正好相反,擅长看地图,不喜欢开车。因此,她就成了我的指南针,而我就心甘乐意地成了她的私人司机。而且一路上就一家人在车上,漫漫旅途如何打发?当然是聊天了,从小学聊到中学,再到大学,再到工作,一直到现在,有时候没话找话。想想平时,我们俩每天早八晚五地工作,下班之后又要照顾孩子;等孩子们都睡了,我们也差不多要睡觉了。躺在床上,倦意袭来,没说两句话就已经睡着了,根本没有时间谈心。驾车旅行就完全不一样了,不用想工作的事,又有很多时间要打发,有的是聊天的机会,而且不说都不行,不然多无聊啊。 总的来说,这次旅行还是很有意思的,见到了几个原来的朋友,去了几个有意思的地方,并且让岳父岳母体验了一下在美国驾车旅行是什么滋味。不过还是回到家的感觉最好。


First trophy

Tristan played his last soccer game tonight. He is actually a very good goal keeper, and he gets very proud when he catches a ball or blocks a ball. Although his team lost the game with 1:3, no kids seemed to be upset, because every kid got a shiny, golden trophy. Kids are excited and parents are happy, and it’s been fun. It’s Tristan’s first trophy, so it is very special to him. He thinks he earned it, which is right, for he has been playing very hard. He invited his friend William to watch the last game, unfortunately William […]


Busy week

It will be a busy week. Monday: Tristan will play soccer at 7:45pm. So far, his team has not scored one single point yet. Parents are concerned more than kids, and also parents are more excited than kids are. It is very fun to watch kids playing soccer: One boy was playing as a fall back in one game and got bored because all his team mates were in the other half of the court, so he started spinning himself for almost 5 minutes until he lost his balance and fell on the field. In one game, the goal keeper […]


Prepare for test

I am preparing for a certification exam, but I don’t know when I am gonna take the exam because it really depends on how well my preparation goes. Hopefully I will be ready in six months, you know, the exam is quite expensive and I don’t want to waste my “Benjamins“. So, I am afraid I can update any of my blogs as before, or even won’t have time to update them at all. We will see. Sorry if I let you down for not being able to update my blogs in the next a few months.
