加拿大日到了，叔叔让虎哥带我们去了万锦市中心。那一天周围人来人往十分热闹。我们在那里看了一场演唱会，又看了一场烟花。这是我第一次见到这么大型的烟花表演。无论是烟花的样式，还是烟花的大小，都使我一次次瞠目结舌了。我们还为此拍了视频，将这个美好的夜晚记录了下来。
Canada Day comes, uncle asks brother Hank to bring us to the centre of Markham. That day, it was very busy around. We saw a band performance and a firework show there. It was the first time I saw such a large firework show. No matter the types, or the sizes, shocked me. We filmed a video for this, to record this pleasant night.
不久前我去到美国大使馆办理留学签证。与上一次在中国广州办理旅游签证不同的是，这里的美国大使馆有些空寂，人并很多，于是排了一会儿队后，我就成功走到了窗口前。然后我按照叔叔说的，人家问什么便如实回答，没有花言巧语，顺利地走完了整个流程。还记得那一天天气晴朗，我迎着和风走出使馆，仿佛什么都没有发生一样。这使我想起当年在广州走出大使馆的时刻，疲惫得像是刚经过了一场苦战。
A while ago, I went to American Embassy to apply F-1 visa. Different from the last time I did a visa, there were not many people in the embassy here, and it took a short time for me to walk towards the window. I did as uncles asked, said what the officials asked literally, and successfully finished the the whole process. The weather was pleasant that day, I walked out of the embassy into a gust of wind, as if nothing had happened. But back in China that time, it was like a hard battle.
叔叔最近和我们提到人思想的可笑处。比如某人与别人发生争执，明明是他的错，他却想到要大人有大量，不要与他人计较。这也使我想起有时自己的一些可笑想法，比如有时明明是因为懦弱而不敢与他人发生冲突，自己却会想这是能容忍宽容的表现。为此我觉得很害怕，感到如果不像叔叔说地那样，真正地养成反思的习惯，不知道会有多少事情自己就把自己骗过去了。
Recently, uncle mentioned the funny part of human thoughts. For example, one person had hassle with another. It is his fault, but he thinks that he should be good and forgive another. This also reminds me of some funny thoughts I once have had. For example, sometimes it is due to cowardness I avoid a fight, but I would think it is because of my tolerance. I feel that it is afraid, feeling that if I do not learn how to reflect, as uncle said, on how many things I would deceive myself.
周三时我们去到附近一个森林公园野营。这次有了去年的经验，我们带上了烧烤炉和木碳，于是烧烤就便利了很多。和去年一样，这个森林公园也有个沙滩，沙滩上人来人往十分热闹。我们下了水，在黄昏时拍了照片，又在沙滩上吹了很长时间的晚风。令人深刻的是，虽然森林公园人很多，但是道路和沙滩上却没有多少垃圾。除此之外，天也很干净，在晚上显现出许多星星。我感觉我一生中任何一个夜晚都没有这个晚上的星星多。小山说这是因为光污染很少的缘故。
On Wednesday we went to a nearby forest park to camp. Having the experiences of last year, we this time brought grill and charcoal, making BBQ much easier. As last year, this park also had a beach, which was busy and crowded. We also went down into the water; took many photos at the dusk and enjoyed the breeze for a long time on the beach. The surprising thing was that, though there were many people, garbage could rarely be seen. Besides, the sky was also very clean, showed many stars at night. I felt that I had never seen so many stars at one time in my whole life. Mountain said it was because of the lack of light pollution here.
