TOPIC 3: SUMMER VACATION.

Hello, my friends! My name is ____ from Soc Trang. Last summer, I went to Hanoi City-capital of Vietnam with my parents. It's so interesting! Before the trip, I brought a small suitcase to put my clothes and my camera inside. So I have a lot of things to tell you about it. The weather was hot. And I stayed at Hoa Binh Hotel. I did lots of things. First, we went to Hoan Kiem Lake. The lake is the heart of Ha Noi capital.  The view is so beautiful and I love it! After that, we went to Trang Tien and ate ice-cream. It's delicious! Second, we visited the Ho Chi Minh mausoleum, where visitors can express their admiration and gratitude towards the great father of Vietnamese who has led the country to independence and reunification. Ho Chi Minh mausoleum is very large and there are many trees around it. Finally, we went to West Lake and enjoy the traditional dishes here. I like Banh Tom very much. On the last day, I rode a bike around Hoan Kiem Lake with my parents and walked around the Old Quarter at night! It was fun!

topic1: family

In the modern life, there are more and more people spending less time with their family. This essay will examine the major causes and possible influences of this phenomenon. 

To begin with, there are several explanations that are worth mentioning about this issue. The first reason is that due to the fast pace of modern life, people are now living a busier one and devoting an increasing amount of time to work. It is increasingly common that people tend to lose the balance between family and clerical work since they usually spend more time at work and do not come home until late at night. For example, due to the heavy workload many workers have to work more than 10 hours a day, and sometimes they are required to work during weekend or overnight to meet the deadline. The rapid development of social media is the second reason for this trend. That parents and children stay together but hold their own mobile phones or laptops to communicate with online friends on Facebook instead of talking with each other is easily seen these days. 

This rising issue is having considerable impacts on both individuals themselves and family. First, it is believed that family is where people can share their feelings and problems, which help them to release their stress. However, an individual may experience emotional distress if they do not receive proper support from his/ her immediate family. Second, the bonds between parents and children may be weakened. For instance, when parents do not spend much time with their children, their children will lack of appropriate parental care and attention and are likely to follow a path towards criminal behaviors.

In conclusion, there are two main factors leading to the fact that people hardly make time for their family and not only individuals but also the family may suffer from this trend in both physical and emotional ways.

topic 2: daily activities

Everyday, I get up at half past five in the morning. Then, I brush my teeth and hair, wash my face before doing fifteen-minute morning exercises. After that, I will enjoy my breakfast prepared by my mother before riding my bike to school at 6:20. It normally takes me about 20 minutes to come to school. I have about 15 minutes to quickly review my lessons before my class starts at 7 a.m. I usually have my lunch with friends in the canteen at 12 o'clock. Next, I take a short nap to get ready for the afternoon schooling. I come home at 5:30. I often help my mom with the housework before taking a bath. My family usually have dinner at 7p:m. I am in charge of washing dishes, which always takes me about 10 minutes to finish. Our family will have a small talk before I and my sisters come back to our rooms and finish the homework. Before going to bed at 10:30 every evening, I will read books in order to sleep better.

topic 3: summer vacation

The summer vacation had turned out once more. I was very happy as I forget about the daily puzzle and routine of school. I was unsure about my plan of summer vacation and was behaving like drifter.

Ultimately I thought to extract much from this summer vacation. I charted out my options to take up some types of exercise like running, walking, joining cricket academy, joining football academy etc. But I found that my inner soul is not satisfied. I thought to be honest to myself and planned to make the best of my vacation time during this vacation.

Finally I came out with a better plan to taste journey and a tour spot and to save myself from 44 degree Celsius temperature of summer. I decided to enjoy my native city (Basti in UP India) in this vacation. The daily plan was quite different to that of tour spot. We discussed with our family member to take short tour of Pradarshani, fair and near by historical places of Basti and to remain at home during chilled hot summer day. I also decided to plunge myself into swimming spot if available there to enjoy swimming. At first day evening time we saw a Priyadarshini organised at the heart-centre of Basti. Subsequently we went to Chando Tal a historical place (in ancient time it was known as Chandra Nagar). Migratory birds are still used to come to this lake every year . At another day I went to swimming pool of a park. It costs around $ 3.5 but I thought it is very less than the expenditure of any tour's one day cost. I enjoyed the cool water. It was very great feeling to have the enjoyment like this in summer time.

This summer vacation was not spent entirely in seeking fun but used as a part learning to enhance my weakness of Algebra. During day period of this summer vacation I finished all chapters of Mathematics (By Hall and Knight). It is unbelievable that I had become so strong in algebra after that summer vacation. I recommend to all of my friend to target one weak subject in a vacation to strengthen the subject. I think weakness of any subject can be overcome.
