Ruth & her new chemistry teacher--勝吉弟兄

很喜樂，能帶著露絲一同參加台東高中的讀經小組聚會。

今天我們一同追求了羅馬書五章十七節下，『…那些受洋溢之恩，並洋溢之義恩賜的，就更要藉著耶穌基督一人，在生命中作王了。』（…much more those who receive the abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness will reign in life through the One, Jesus Christ.）弟兄姊妹除了藉著禱讀好好的消化吸收這小段聖經節外，也彼此鼓勵在我們的家庭生活、學校生活中，可更多的藉著享受恩典（基督自己），被生命充滿，並藉著在生命中作王，管理萬有和一切處境。

The above was written by Ruth's chemistry teacher in Taitung--Mr. Luo. Here, Ruth's new classmates like to call him 勝吉弟兄 because he is a very pious Christian and always like to share with his students the wisdom he finds from the Bible. But for Class 109, 勝吉弟兄 is not just a chemistry teacher--he is also the husband of their homeroom teacher, Ms. Wu(姿瑩姊妹). Now, they are going to spend their honeymoon in Japan. Let's give them the best wishes and hope they would have a lot of fun!!

Ruth Yee & her dear diary in Taitung Part 1

Apr. 15th, 2010
Dear diary:
Today, with excitement and expectation, I got out from the crowded, small box. It was so comfortable to reach the fresh air and beautiful scenery in Taitung. Forty people coming into view, I was so frightened. Ah… uh…. I meant…pleased.


The student who took me out of the box was 潘霈. Then Mr. Sam, the professional English teacher of Class 109 in Taitung Senior High School, hugged me and said,
"She’s Ruth義, our new learning partner." "Thank you for your introducing, gentle man," I thought in my heart. "and you guys must treat them well!" "Yeah! Oooooh!" All the students shouted loudly as if they were people in the ancient age and haven’t seen such a beautiful teddy bear. "So, Teacher Sam, where are the gifts from TFG?" "Hey! Hey! Aren’t you guys excited because of me?" I almost cried in my heart.


After the welcome celebration, 俊儒(帥哥) and 祐榕(Keroro) took me to see around the campus and visit some of their teachers. I recognized that Taitung Senior High is not only a group beautiful buildings, but a good learning solution with great animation. All the teachers got so “high” after seeing my graceful appearance.
Finally, it was time for class again. 俊儒 and 祐榕took me to Class 105, another class which Teacher Sam teaches. From the reaction they saw me, I Knew they loved me, too.


After school, it was time for some interesting activities! 瑞智 took me to dinner with his friend from another class. I was actually not so hungry, so I only drank a cup of black tea. Seeing them talk about me and my hometown, I was kind of happy!


After dinner, we went to the McDonald’s. "It is not so special," I thought. As I was thinking that why they guys took me here, they gave me a textbook--English. Oh I almost forgot that I would have to take an English vocabulary quiz tomorrow. So I studied the book and had some coke. "These words are as easy as a piece of cake!" I thought. After all, I am from the best girl’s high school in Taiwan!

Time flies, I finished my first day in Taitung in happiness. And I would have to go to school tomorrow, so good night my diary!

p.s. Good luck for the quiz tomorrow!

後記：其實在Ruth義來到台東高中的當天，一位來自對岸中國東北的一位英文老師（研究生）正好來到台東高中參觀本班（其實是阿臻老師）的教學情況。正好也來看看台灣學生在這些課外活動上所展現的活力與熱情。
我們會善待Ruth義的！至於保護費嘛這個….

Finally, Ruth Yee cam to Class 109

(April 14th)
We have heard that the first ambassador from TFG arrived at our school. She is Wheaty; she looked adorable but she would stay with Class 105.
Anyway, we still welcomed her and took a picture with her.

However, what we really looked forward to is the one who will learn with us in the following weeks...

(April 15th)
Eventually, the guest--Ruth Yee--showed up in our class. We were very proud to say that she was as pretty as Wheaty! Besides, she also brought some pineapple cakes as her special gifts. We all had one, and we did love the snack!
After the memorable first meeting, we took a picture together to remember the moment. Some of our classmates took her around to visit different teachers.
Later, we will have more plans to do with her. Just wait and see!
