Rough draft
Last year, I had a chance to witness an annually firework competition which was organized in my city and it was such a memorable experience. The festival called Da Nang International Fireworks Competition (DIFC) takes place at the end of April. Last year was the 6th edition of the musical firework competition hosted by Da Nang city.
Its theme was “love of Han River” with the participation of 5 nations: Russia, Italy, Japan, USA and Viet Nam. It was considered as the biggest and most important event in the region since it displayed in 2 nights: opening and giving prize for the best teams.
Though I just saw the second night which team USA, Japan and Italy represented their performances, I was really impressed by the colorful and professional of the competition.
Each team prepared for the event for months with high effort and the most modern equipment. In the opening ceremony, there were some exchange cultural activities among 5 nations that introduce their nations’ pride or symbols. After that, each team took turn to represent their performances based on the music theme. It was the music used in the competition that became a specific trail of each nation. Each presentation was a smooth combination between colorful firework and lively music. So excellent was the show that everyone seemed to be satisfied since there were a lot of acclaims and thunderous applauses. This was such a valuable time for them to temporarily forget all the worries and enjoyed the competition.
Every year, about 500,000 spectators including local residents, tourists from all over the world stand on the banks of the Han river and watch the special show. In these nights, Da Nang scenery is brightened up by splendid and magnificent firework performances. It can be said that Da Nang has become a potential destination thanks to this international competition.

    Summary of “Let Them Eat Dog” In the op-ed piece “Let Them Eat Dog” published in the Wall Street Journal on October 31st, 2009, author and journalist Jonathan Safran Foer, discusses the moral reasoning of eating certain kinds of animals. Foer states eating dog is a cultural choice, which inspires the readers to think why they select the animals they eat. Then, he argues how a dog, “man’s best friend” is not that different from a pig.

    “Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere” (King, April 16, 1963) this quote was said by Martin Luther King Jr. Injustice is a synonym of the word unfairness; meaning, that injustice is when people are not being fair. In the cases of To Kill a Mockingbird, The Scottsboro Boys and The Triangle Shirtwaist Fire Injustice was a part of the verdict. In To kill a Mockingbird Tom Robinson was accused of raping Mayella Ewell. In the Scottsboro boys case the nine boys that were found on the train were accused by the two women that they raped the two women. In the shirtwaist fire the women were suing the owners of the building because they locked the women in and there were no exits. The women pleaded and the jury still found the owners not guilty. In the trials the Scottsboro boys, Tom Robinson and The shirt waist fire women were falsely accused of what they did. Each defendant/prosecution was accused for something they didn’t do. (Lee, To Kill a Mockingbird) (Scottsboro Boys, Documentary)…

    This song is written to enlighten and inspire and that’s why it would make a great music video. Firework by Katy Perry is a classic song for many people of this new generation. It’s played at parties as well as school dances because of the energy and hope that is reflected from the song. You can be in an unhappy mood and then become content with yourself just from listening to this song. Firework has a positive mood and gives off an invigorating message and that is entirely why there should be no assumption of not allowing this to be used for a music video.…

    The enjoyable event that I experienced when I was at school is travelling to Dawei with my teachers and friends for prize giving ceremony. This ceremony was for outstanding students at Grade 11 matriculation exam and was held by the government of Thinnintharyi Region. It happened on July, 2011. As soon as my teachers received the information of regional prize giving, they replied and gathered the outstanding students including me. We discussed with our teachers for expense to go to the Dawei. We borrowed a bus for three days with the cost of 250,000 per day. We started to travel at two days before the ceremony for rehearsal ceremony. We traveled to reach to Dawei for 12 hours including the rest from Myeik which is the started point. Not only we went across many mountains but also the roads are very rough and muddy since it was a rainy season. Therefore we are very tired but I was very happy because I could see many different views from mountains. When we reached to Dawei at evening, we stayed at No.3 Basic Education High School, Dawei. At the next day we went to Dawei City Hall for rehearsal ceremony. And then we visited to many famous pagodas at Dawei including Shin Koe Shin pagodas. Before we left form Dawei we bought Dawei ethnic snacks such as fish crisps. At two days after we reached Dawei we went to again Dawei City Hall for prize giving ceremony. After we received the prizes, we went out the study tour to Dawei deep seaport. This is a very enjoyable place and the sea is bluish. Then we went to Maung Ma Kan beach. This is one of the famous beaches in Myanmar. In this beach, sand bank is white and wide. We stayed at the beach for a night. At night we held happily the camp fire festivity. We bought accessories made of snails as keepsake. At next day we returned to Myeik. I particularly remember this event because this is my first enjoyable trip with my teachers and friends.…
