Team work was really important         Kelly

      In the beginning of last semester, I heard there would be a research project competition, and the topic was about Din Tai Fung. After talking to my schoolmates and teachers, I decided to join them. From my knowledge, Din Tai Fung was a worldwide company. I was curious about its foods and successful stories. I was so happy to have this learning opportunity and I might taste some yummy foods as well.

      When the researching process started, our teacher reminded us some rules. As a member of the competition, everyone needed to work hard and do our best. If everyone did their jobs well, the result of the project would bring us satisfaction and honor. Our time and efforts would be worth. The speech really encouraged us.

      Then we went to the restaurants and kitchens of Din Tai Fung several times. We interviewed the chefs and staffs. Also, we learned the proper greeting manners and how to make steamed dumplings. The most interesting of all, we served the students from Ci-Sain Elementary School in the Din Tai Fung Restaurant.

      After all the learning activities, we had to create a website. I first finished the journals about how I felt and what I had learned in the activities, and then translated the journals in English. I had many unforgettable memories and interesting experiences in this project. I also knew that helping and serving others truly brought us happiness. I tried to keep smiling all the times while serving the students. Last, I learned that team work was really important. We helped or supported each other, and were responsible for our jobs. If we obtained rewards, everything would be more wonderful!
