My Senior High School

My senior high school, the Affiliated Senior High School of National Taiwan Normal University, located across the American Institution in Taiwan and near the Da-an Forest Park, is a place filled with joy and laughter and wonder. Before entering the school, you can see a large and impressive front gate, on which our school name is inscribed. The buildings in school are very well-organized in distinctive patterns. Turning left, you can see a magnificent building, our gymnasium, where people cheerfully play basketball and badminton. Just near the gym stands a row of teachers’ offices, a historic building just like the Red House in Jianguo High School. On the right-hand side of the school are two lines of royal palms. It is terrific to immerge yourself sitting there to enjoy the breeze softly sweeping over your face and to listen to birds twittering. And then, if you walk straight forward while entering the front gate, you can see two fiery phoenixes made of tile making threatening gestures, which are the symbol of our school, representing freedom, wild imagination and creative thinking. At the back of our school is the sports field, which is one of the largest you can find in Taipei. Students are used to playing baseball, football or doing any exercises in this sports field; most of our celebrations also take place in this huge playground. Finally, the very scene you may frequently notice is that after school, you can always see passionate students playing guitar loudly, and dancing in a fever, trying to get rid of bad emotions and pressure. A school really worthy of a visit, every time I walk out, I know what it feels like to live in a paradise.
