Something I learned

         I have learnt many interesting things in the past seven school days. The most intersting thing I have learnt was in geometry class. It is my favorite class, and as a Chinese, I think I am good at math and I love it. Though I always get good grades, however, I do meet problems sometimes. Last time, I met a geometry question that I could not solve after thought about it for half an hour. However, Mrs. O'Neil always tells us to try a problem again and again. Thus, I drew the picture for another three times and read the question for another 5 times. I finally found the way to solve it. The answer was not as hard as I thought. 
          Geometry class is always interesting and I always learn something else, not just math problems. Keep trying is the key to success, not only in geometry, but we need to keep trying when we have problem on everything in our life.

10. went to the beach of Santa Monica, LA

The best thing I have done during Spring Break was no doubtfully shopping with my father. Although my father was not interested in shopping, but after he went shopping with a shopaholic like me, he started shopping, too. We went to the Beverly Center in Downtown LA. There were plenty of fun stuff there. We went to many shoe stores and bought many shoes, as my father and I were both interested in sneakers, and we were both sneaker heads. Also, I went to Sephora, which was the place that every girl would like to go when they are shopping.

Moreover, I will never forget my wonderful experience in Santa Monica. This is a place I have been to for several times. My parents and I always enjoy the sunshine in California, especially near the beach. My dad and I just sat on the beach, lied in the sands, and enjoyed the wonderful weather, because it never rains in California, and that is also a thing that both my dad and I really like about it.
I have built some sand castles, and my dad used his camera to record the beautiful moment. For my family, Santa Monica is not just a beach, but it's also the best memory. We go there every year, though the beach stays the same, but my father and I change, that's how we see ourselves growing up.
