In this October Break I didn’t went out, but stay at home with my sister. I do homework usually in the morning, and afternoon I usually deal with computer, but not online games, things such as doing Chinese project, and chatting while reading news. Then at evening I will go down and play basketball (will change to others depend on the weather) with my sister, and sometimes friends if they were down stairs. I think these are relating to classes because teachers giving homework could keep our brain working and won’t just have fun and forget everything after coming back to school. We should have things to do everyday and reading some things everyday, Chinese says that, if you don’t read things for three days, when you talk with knowledge. And things like reading news could let us know more about things that could be relating to us. And doing some sports could let us be healthier and not just sleeping at home, staring at computer/TV at home. And I won’t miss you too much lar=), I will miss my homework much more XD. (Joking= =)

In my October break, I came to my father’s company and stay with him. My brother, my mom and I stay at home no where to go, so my bother and I have to do our homework. This October break seems boring to me, but however nothing bad happens, which is lucky. Even that we stayed home, at night is when we all family member’s happiest time. Because of my dad must work at his company which is far away from Bangkok, so we family have to separate, only during Saturday and Sunday we can stay together! My brother is 12th grader, which he is going back to Taiwan’s college, but we still play together. Even he plays violence but we are having a time like “TIME TRAVEL”(The Sound Of The Thunder), seems like going back when we are still young. Stay my dad’s company is quite boring, but we are having a simple and happy holiday. Also in the holiday I study history, literature, geometry, so this pretty relates alot on class, isn't it???

This October Break, I go to ChokChai Farm with some friends and parents, this didn't relate to literature and it was kind of borning because I went it before. Rest of the Break I stay at home doing nothing but homeworks(I think this is what everyone will do at this Break), such as chinese, accounting, read books given by Mr.A, watching movies relate to Greek and Rome and write summary, etc.
I think this relate to classes because in the Break of playing, teachers gave us homeworks so that we could made our brain to work and get ready for the school.

In this October Break, I slept about 9, after that, I doing my homework and play the computer at the same time. I check my email, and browser the new feeds, before I start preview Lit terms and vocab. I planed the 20 lit term each day, so in one week, I could, somewhat, be ready, hopefully. After previewing, I start to do History homework, then Chinese project. Yes, While I am doing homework, I play the computer, not computer game. Finally, I read the books, such as the bird or mockingbird before bed. (I found it is a good story for...ZZZ) jk. I think it related to the class because even it is a break, but it didn't different then school days. I spend all day doing homework, except I had more free time.

This October Break I stayed home some days eat, sleep, online, and just simply went out hang-out like usual =). When I stayed home, it's usually the time I'm completing my homeworks (I hate those days). I finished reading "The Birds" story and the questions (and it took me one whole day to understand those questions, haha).
There was one time, I was sitting alone watching my dog (chihuahua) playing with my dolls. It was biting all over, trying to tear the heads apart somehow -*-, I got kind of furious, so I snatched it away from him and kind of kicked him a little. He was MAD at me, like seriously ANGRY, so he started being evil, and tried his hardest to fight back against me. It was funny in a way though. This made me thought of the birds in the Du Maurier's short story, dogs, like birds, they rely upon their natural instinct, and they immediately fight back to protect themselves. Sometimes nature do go against us. They are known to do so without being trained, it just comes naturally to the animals, just like what we do sometimes :) right?

During the October Break, I went to school to practice basketball with a few teammates and Mr.Raha and I found out the game of basketball can be related to our class too. Basketball can be related to the ESLERS and that is what we try to accomplish in class. In basketball, people need to be collaborative workers; they need to work together to score and defense. They need to be effective communicators in order to help each other too and understand what is going on. It is related to life-long learner too. People have to learn from what they do wrong, learn new things and review the old and most important, they need to gain experience. Lastly, they need to be complex thinkers. They need to have strategies to score and defense, and know what moves to use so they can get past their defender.

During the October break, I eat sleep eat sleep and do homework. Day passed by very boringly; my thoughts only focus on the remaining hwssss (especially yours). Even though I worried about the homeworks, but it came out that I have never touch it at all. I spent my day playing games, listening to the complaints from my parents, clean + clear out my room, etc… I went to Sai’s house twice to practice our play for Thai class, but still I can’t memorize my lines. From the nine-day break, I went out to the book fair twice. It’s very amazing how much more crowed it has been since I was nine, which was the first time mom took me. The fair consist of both old (very) and new books. It reminded me that no matter how old things are, it still could serve us the purpose of why it had been published. Each one of us has a purpose of why are we still living. Time pass and we fulfill our goal, trying hard to reach the zenith of life. However, the base must be strong and tough. To have that done, that’s why we attend school from pre-k to University. Nevertheless, what all of us require throughout our life and no matter which state we are undergoing, is determination.

During this October break I could just simply say that there nothing interesting about it. I just simply stay home for the whole 1 week, but at least it is better than going to school. I stay home play games, do some choirs and house work and most of all homework. Immediately as I was opening blogspot to check out what is our homework the first thing that I can think of is sayonara October break. Plus all of the house work and choirs I think that there would be no time left for relaxation. For example first in the morning I have to help my mother carry stuff, then check the stock, count the fabric and the rest of the day depend on my mother’s mood. But as time go by everything went by very fine and I have a great time doing all of this. So I think that this relate to our class because homework or class work is also like a preparation for our future business, but just in different state of student or worker. It made us more active and makes us have some kind of feeling if we are working and when that time come we will not complain that much.

Every day in my life or we could say our life we all learning something from others you may not realize immediacy but there experience teach you a precious lesson that they learn within pain tears or great deal.
I think thing that I learn are relate to our class even thought our class is a literature class because in the class we are not just learning from books we are learning how to communicate and understanding.
This break I learn more about drugs.
Amphetamine known as number 4 he say quit drug is quick and simple but it all upon yourself desire you can or can’t
He say that everything is not too late but after you start use needle to inject the amphetamine nothing could help you why because from sucking the power to inject need about 10 long years they say once a person start to inject will consider a dead man after all.
But question is most of they all know that is dangerous why try it
Life has only one chance why bet on a game you have no chance to win.
Things that are more relate will be all those home works even more than I can imagine it killing me T^T
P.S. Tony your comment is very brave bravo TONY

In this October Break, the first three days I didn't do any homework most of the time was playing computer and sleep because last week there are like five Exam. So this three days it was like my relax time for my next step. After three days I start to do my homework for example reading The bird and kill a monckingbird. This did relate to classes so when I go back to school and discuss this story I will not be just sitting there and laugh about the joke you make.
But the October Break is almost end hope we can have time travel like the story The Sound Of The Thunder to the beginning of the break, so we don't have to meet our handsome LIT teacher.(XD)

For this October break, I stayed home and played computer games and PSP and of course the most important thing HOMEWORK!!!! I did Thai homework and English homework too. On Monday, I went to school for basketball practice. It was a fun practice with the basketball team the Bromsgrove (BIS) basketball coach which was in FIBA before. It was a fun but tiring day for me. We did a lot of running and suicides for us to practice our stamina. After all the running drills, we started playing in teams. And one thing that was related to class was collaborative workers. In basketball, we need to work together as a team which is teamwork. If we don’t work as a team, it is hard for us to win. Or sometimes we can never win without teamwork. And it is related to our class because we need to work as a class in order for us to succeed and go through the next lesson which takes hard work. We need to communicate and help each other to discuss about the story. If we don’t finish our story discussion, we will not be moving to our mastery test. And now, the last thing to do is going back to school and continue learning.

There are three bad events during this October break. First, I am stuck in Bangkok whole week. Second, I get a lot of HOMEWORK during this break, such as, Biology, Algebra, and also Literature. Lastly, I meet Mr. A at the restaurant of my mother friend on October 22, Wed (sorry…). The homework is the worst of those events. For Literature, I am not surprised such homework. But I hope next time the homework can be less than this time. And also, these are the homework that I used most of time to do. Because I am not good at English, which also the reason why I retake Literature9, so I need to reread one short story, which is “The Birds”, one novel, which is “To Kill a Mockingbird”, and create an ending of “The Sound of Thunder” by using my poor English writing skill. For biology, oh… please… that is the worst thing ever, which is to make a children book that is about a topic from our biology textbook, is there anyone want to see the book about that. Therefore, this October break is my worst break ever.

During this october break, I slept a lot. Sleeping gave me more power and energy to concentrate and participate on other thing. Which we did the same thing in our English class. Beside sleeping, I stayed home all the time and staring at computer. But computer is a good way to learn new knowledge, and make us could be a good communicator with the world. Homework is the only one thing that influence my holiday. But with those huge amount of homeworks, it gave my holiday some interlude and make my holiday more colorful. The most unbelievable and incredible thing is, “when you do more thing you will have more confidence”. This related to our English class because we all want to be confident and tell your opinions to the others in a best and easy way. Homework also give us lots of benefit. Like Mr.Paul said Test is the goal and homework is like steps to help you reach your goal. Which tell us you should not only be limited in a single space, we should go look around and learn from everything, when you do something wrong you changed it, when you don’t understand something, you ask it. That is the thing people should be able to understand. And learn that from our surrounding circumstance.

This October break has been a remarkable vacation for me, especially from 20th to 25th. We were in a tour of 23 people from the Skylark Travel Service Co., Ltd traveling in the Northeastern part of Japan from Iwate-Hanamaki Airport to Aomori Airport. The weather there has been really pleasant during the first 4 days except the last day (yesterday raining). The trip was basically focusing on the natural landscapes of Japan, such as mountains, lakes, forests, rainfalls, onsen, and the falling leaves. As we were sauntering down the scenic spots we noticed that there aren’t much trash bins throughout places, our tour guide told us that Japanese estimated that a trash bin cost approximately 2 million yen per month, including the salary for the dustman. Because of this, Japanese always took their trash with them home without littering. In order to relate this to our surrounding, our country, our school, and our class, we should learn from the Japanese by start decreasing the amount of trash bins throughout the school and encouraging students and teachers to bring their trashes home if there isn’t any trash bins (recycling bins) around. This might be a marvelous way to make our school a better place.

In this October break, I went to nowhere. I done the same things everyday eat, sleep, computer, and homeworks. Day pass by boringly and lazily, I woke up about 10 everyday and ate breakfast as lunch. First, I opened computer and watched Chinese series, also I checked Literature 9B Blogspot everyday about 11. I started to do my homeworks about 12, and I read the bird and to kill a mockingbird before bed time about one hour. And rest of the time I played computer, ate mama(noodle cup), played with my dog, and sleep. I think doing homeworks and read novels were related to our class, because instead of playing for the whole break, but we had to complete our homeworks. It seem like we had tutoring our self, helped us get more ready to the school.

There's only 8 days I can really rest in my October break. Saturday I need to join the Model UN which contest on ISB. It's a model version of the United Nation, to find resolution to solve world issues. Honestly, its not very fun, it's a very serious activity. Rest of the time I stay home doing my homework and go to the internet. I finally finished the movie of "Pirates of the Carribbean 3". I slept more then 2 times a day, well, that's not a news, I need to replenish my sleep because I always went to bed after ten o'clock, and get up in 5:15 in schooldays. There's nothing really different from normal days except there's more freetime I have. Although we're in holidays we are still learning from the enviornment, I think this is the main thing related to the class.
