Although the chemistry examination is near by, it is still hard for me to concentrate on the boring textbook that lies upon my desk. Yesterday afternoon, I together with some med-volleyball teammates went to the newly open volleyball field to play volleyball with a view to stirring our weary souls which were poisoned by the "chemicals".
As a rule, we warmed up first and started to play "free-attack". In a team, I played the role as a hitter. Being a hitter must take the responsibility of making a good attack, but it was still hard for me to find the critical hitting point of the volleyball. This is the condition which happens much when we play "free attack": I throw the volleyball to the setter, run, jump and desperately hit the ball. But the power of the ball doesn't correspond to my effort. It may fly slowly or fly outside the field. Sometimes I did feel disappointed when I saw others play good "free-attack".
Playing "free-attack" for a while, we decided to exchage our roles! I exchaged to be a setter. Being a setter, I must raise the ball in appropriate height and distance so that the hitter could easily hit the ball. It was a tough job because the slightest errors created by the setter could cause the greatest difference: The ball might go toward a strage direction so the hitter could barely hit the ball, or the ball might fly to the other side of the field. Furthermore, when standing on the setter's position, I could scarecely determine the ball I raised whether the height or distance was right or not.
After playing the role of a setter, I did realize the disappointment when setter did his level best to raise a nice ball but the hitter didn't give the corresponding attack. I must practice more to be the hitter whom the setter can trust in!

Self-Introduction(Vo.2)
Since teacher Jane didn't accept my late assignment, I post it as a new artical of my blog!XD
I am a fresh man in CGU. After last semester, I have become more adapted to the independent life style of an university student. Standing on the starting line of this semester, I have set two goals for myself to achieve lest I should waste much time on daily trifles and get nothing done.
One is playing volleyball well. Not until I entered university did I know the thrilling feeling in playing volleyball. I would join the med-volleyball to enhance my volleyball skill and strenthen my body. The other goal is spending more time on practicing harmonica with a view to making the movement more fascinating.
Undoubtedly, my extracurricular activities are based on my academic performance. I must find the balance point between extracurricular activity and school work. More inconveniece and troubles would come up if I accidentally flunk any of my subjects. How to control the balance is the top difficult task that I should learn!

Self-Introduction(Vo.1)
It has been so long that I forget when I wrote an essay in English last time. I'm a freshman in CGU. After last semester, I become more adapted to the life style of an university student. Considering I had wasted much time in the last semester, I decide to set some goals for myself to achieve in the new semester. I would join the med-volleyball to enhance my volleyball skill and strengthen my body. I will spend more time on practicing harmonica with a view to making the movement more fascinating, and all pass!
I think there are more, and more important things outside the class that I should learn in the university. There even could be something that I have no other chances to try again. So participating in the extracurricular activities becomes my top priority in my first two years in the CGU, and achieving good academic performance is less important. This is the university student that I want to be now!
