Redpath Suger Museum


Hi everyone,

I have had a great time with my classmates on a field trip. We went to Redpath Sugar Museum in the rain. We were welcomed and hosted by Richard Feltoe. He explained the history of Sugar factory and show us Sugar Cane, molasses sugar which is cooked very much to get brown color and we saw many kind of Sugar, white, brown, and creamy color. Also he points on the map the steps of how to prepare Sugar in the factory.
Now I have some information about the person how made the sugar factory. His name is John Redpath. In 1853 He decided to establish an entirely new enterprise, as a new branch of manufacture in Canada and also with the view of creating a business for his sons. That fall John made purchases of land from the seminary of Sain Sulp in Montreal and construct for the new "Sugar House" began almost immediately.
John Redpath Canada Sugar Refinery opened for business on August 12, 1854.

University settlement

Hi everyone,

We are five of us went to University Settlement for job and Career Fair.
In fact, we didn't gain any snip from there. It's OK, because none of us didn't have any Canadian experience. My classmates asked about jobs, and I also asked a lady who was responsible at resume desk about fixing my resume. She was a nice lady. She helped me and fixed my resume and gave me some advice. After we finished, we followed my teacher's direction, then we went out for a walk around downtown. We passed through many places such as an old building which belongs to Jewish religion called a Synagogue. It was built in 1930. And we passed through many shops, such as Cheese Magic, bakery, grocery, and meat shop, and we saw a nice car with a beautiful colors and plants growing inside. It was a wonderful trip and we took beautiful photographs of at different places, before we left we went to a Chinese restaurant. I ordered vegetarian food with chop stick but I am still confused about how to used them. Thank you teacher for a nice trip, you are a loyal friend for us and too modest.

Diabetes Mellitus

Hi everyone,

Diabetes Mellitus, most commonly called ''diabetes,'' is a medical condition triggered by an endocrine system imbalance, caused by the lack of production of blood sugar.
Now, I am telling you about my sister's experience with high blood sugar. One day when my sister was sitting in her apartment she heard a loud bomb go off in front her apartment. She scared from that sound and caused her to have diabetes even though she was pregnant. Her son was born with the same problem. In anorther case, my relative got diabetes when she was electrocuted. Some people got diabetes through following bad habits, such as eating too much Sweet food. Did you know this case is very seriouse? The good way to prevent this problem is through exercise and no eating more foods with unnatural sugars.

My Job

When I finished high school, I decided to enroll in the Early Childhood Education program. I studied there about three years for that field. After that I got my certification and I became a teacher for a Kindergarten. So I throw a big dinner for my family and gave donations to some poor famies who needed help. It was worth the sacrifice. A few months later, I started my new Job in an elementary school, but that not my specilazation which I studied for. I taught at a compulsory program for children of ages 6 and 7 in the morning. After school I had to prepare my lunch and quickly leaved to another school to teach elder people who weren't enrolled in school before, it called literacy compulsory school. I spent most of my time at work. my live was much busier than Iexpected. Finally, I moved to another city and got my real professional job in a Kindergarten.
