We stayed in our rooms for the whole afternoon. We played cards, slept, read, practiced some English songs for the contest and did out homework. It was a little boring.
In the evening, we had the final singing contest. It was really great. At last, Vanessa got the second prize. Congratulations to her! All of us were proud of her. Edle gave her a bunch of flowers! Then we returned to our rooms.
It was really a good day today!

Today was a day for music, because we had the preliminary contest in the morning and we would have the final contest in the evening.
After the preliminary contest, we thought that only one program could go on next at first. It mad Vanessa sad. This result gave us a big surprise. At last, we knew that she got the first place of girl’s vocal music. Why she couldn’t pass at first was because she didn’t use the match music. Just like a joke! However, we all thought that she sang well all the time no matter whether she could pass or not.
In the evening, Vanessa, Ellison and I took part in the music contest. Vanessa sang almost perfectly and she go the second prize and last. I don’t think Ellison and I sang well. Ellison forgot the words of the song and my voice was a little dumb. Maybe Ellison felt a little nervous and I didn’t feel very natural on the stage. We haven’t got any prize. It was a little pitiful. Besides, my mother and uncle came to see me last night, so they could hear the song I sang by chance. I thought I should take part in activities more and be on the stage more.
After the music concert, my mother, my uncle and I talked a lot in my room. I felt happy to see them and talk with them.

Today is the first day of the summer camp. The weather is not very good. It rained some time.
I got up very early this morning and walked in Zhejiang University. How large and beautiful Zijingang campus is! After breakfast, we went to take part in the opening of the summer camp. A lot of teachers and schoolmates were there. My best friend Daisy gave a speech. It was successful. After it, our foreign teacher came and we had classes. We introduced ourselves. Our teacher spoke quickly, so I couldn’t understand her at all.
In the afternoon, Professor Hu came to teach us English. I thought the class is very boring and also the text is too easy for me. And I found I didn’t have enough new words. I think soon I’ll adapt this.
This evening, we had class meeting and then I went back to my dorm room. I had a bath and then went to bed.
The first day passed quickly. I hope I can learn more knowledge here.
That’s all.

Today is the second day of the summer camp. The weather wasn’t very good. It rained some time.
This morning I got up at five o’clock. And then we went to the playground. We did some jogging, Professor Hu changed his way of teaching, and I think he will become better. I could understand most of what he said. I think I’ll soon adapt it. And I hope we can be more active.
In the afternoon, our foreign teacher Stephnie talked about music to us. It was the group. From England called the Beatles. I don’t like the Beatles. I don’t like their songs at all. Then we played games. That’s too easy. I think those two games must be played by young children, not us.
Also, the singing race is coming. I think Daisy is a very good singer. She can sing well. So I think if she takes part in this race, she can get good result so I recommend her.
That’s all.

Today is Wednesday. It’s the third day of the summer camp. The weather isn’t very good. It reined all the time, and the wind blowed strongly. So I don’t feel happy. And the umbrella is too small for two persons my sister and me water always fell down into my shoes, so my feet got wet. It’s uncomfortable. I think it was really a bad day.
Today, we saw two films, but we only saw half of them. Lion King is very interesting. Tomorrow we will finish watching that. I hope this will get a good ending. Also our Chinese teacher changed a lot. I started to listen to his lessons.
