The document describes the narrator's experience participating in a growing-up ceremony in 2010 when they were in 8th grade in a Chinese high school. The ceremony was held in Huacheng Square and was overseen by a governmental official to announce that the students were becoming adults. The narrator realized they would have to take on responsibilities like following laws and being a citizen.

1. Growing-up Ceremony
It was my first time that involved to this
type of occupation. In the year of 2010, I was
studying in Grade 8 in a Chinese high school. I
engaged in a collective activity, which is a
ceremony celebrating the youth grew up to 18
years old. The whole Grade 8 of our school
assembled in Huacheng Square which is a new
and big square in my hometown-Guangzhou.
And we were announced by the governmental
person to become adults. At that time, I
recognize that I should take the responsibilities
of many aspects, such as law, citizenship and an
adult.

2. Group Work for
Assignment
Our five people were discussing for a
business team. The girl who wearing black
was showing her viewpoint to us. And all of
us were carefully to listen to her. After
presenting her opinion, we gave our own
idea for her point. During this team work, I
understand the team working skill is
extremely vital. In addition, illustrating our
ideas pose an important part in the group
work, which not only provide that I am the
member in this team and but also improve
our critical thinking during discussion.

3. Presentation for Team
Work
Three of us were in the same
group in GNED500. We had a
presentation at that time. The title
was about the TTC’s price and services.
Finally, we got 7 out of 10. Ever
though, it was not a good mark. But
we tried our best to complete that
presentation. During we prepared for
the presentation, we did a lots of
research for TTC Company and made a
host of possible solutions to address
the problem that the boosting price is
not equivalent to the services that
TTC provided. When we were
presenting, I consider that my self-
confidence is promoting. After the
presentation, my decision-making
skill and problem-solving skill have
increased to a higher level.

4. Graduating from High
School
At the time of August, 2011, I
graduated from my high school in China.
After graduating from high school, I will
have a further education and meet more
like-minded friends from other areas.
However, I will never forget those three
years spending in high school. During the
three years in high school, I learn more
knowledge about studying, making
friends, dealing with issues, decreasing the
pressure from study and how to be a
positive and patient person. It will impact
my future life a lot.

5. Book about Operations
Management
I read this book in these recent days.
However, I have not seen the whole
book. However, I still learn more
during reading. This book is talking
about the theory and practice of
operations management with many
examples from India , including
products, services and sectors. My
major is business operations
management. There are a host of real-
life examples presenting in this book.
This book can help me know more
about the professional knowledge of
this area.
