20120830 日记-我的生日

日记2012-09-01
最近,老天好像是发脾气般的面对着大地, 把大地晒得热烘烘, 天气真的好热啊!希望老天爷不要在发脾气,把脾气收敛起来,下场大雨吧。 放学后,汗流浃背的我在篮球场等着爸爸,幸亏有些同学带篮球来打打,解解闷一下。过了不久, 爸爸的汽车也到了,我和哥哥匆忙地把书包往爸爸的汽车箱里丢去,只有二年级的妹妹慢慢吞吞的背起那个比她身体还重的书包,一步一步的走过来,我心里想到一件很奇怪的事,同学们的年级和体格越大,书包重量就越轻。看看那些低年级、高年级和中学生的书包就可以证明这点了,有点反自然的现象,真好笑。

回到家后,就开始做功课。从早上,在学校长时间的坐着做功课, 回到家也坐着功课,有点闷,我就在家里走来走去,松一松我的筋骨。 过了不久,表哥建辉也来拜访我, 我们也开始向电脑游戏开战, 打得不是你死, 就是我活, 好过瘾啊!

晚上,爸爸买了个Plain Pandan Layers减糖蛋糕为我庆祝10岁生日,庆祝的过程虽然简单, 家人只是为我唱唱生日歌、许许愿和吹吹蜡烛, 但是那种美味冰凉的蛋糕和那温馨的感觉是笔墨难以形容的,是可贵的。

上床前,可能身心有点累了,我和哥哥为了冲泡美绿的小事而大吵一顿, 爸爸也为这件事而骂了我一顿,哎呀!现在的我才知道,身体累了就好像发了脾气的太阳公公,全世界也变得热烘烘,还是开启了空调,把自己冷却下来,睡觉去,明天会更好。

20120825 日记 开斋假期


开斋节假期里, 整个星期的日子里都用来打乒乓。有时,我输球时会发狂, 说也奇怪,发狂的我杀球的真功夫就出现了, 接着我就赢了一场球。但是, 如果爸爸出了他的真功夫,我就不能接爸爸的快球。我还是向爸爸请教和学习打乒乓的技巧, 打乒乓的日记过的好开心。


日子一天一天过, 开学的脚步也一天一天的逼近,心里也开始紧张起来,因为有些功课还没有做完;我还是收拾起放假的心情,做功课和写日记吧!


中午时分, 观看爸爸从网上下载的电影 ‘神奇海盗团’ 和 ‘复仇者联盟 The Avengers’。放假真好,心情轻松,不需要赶着上学上课。


晚上时分, 我忘了观赏TV2 Kungfu Panda 电视节目,心里有点懊恼和后悔,责备自己那么善忘, 把那么好看的节目给忘了。

心情日记20120631:欧洲杯足球赛


早上九时起床,家里除了我和哥哥外,没个人影,爸爸妈妈都带小弟和小妹到菜市场去买菜。昨晚太晚上床睡觉了,我和哥哥又倒头睡,睡至早上十点多,爸爸的汽车声把我们两兄弟叫醒,刷牙洗澡吃早餐后,才赶忙把功课做完, 我们兄弟姐妹也帮爸爸妈妈把买回来的东西收起来。



晚上时分, 我们全家人都瞪着电视机,观赏欧洲杯足球赛,虽然那是一场重播足球赛,可是那是一场紧张、好看和有水准的球赛。
