drip like dragonfly water
Rain, drip like dragonfly water in general in beating the ground, like complaining, but also like in mumbling. Carefully, gently, more like a cry in the heart, let me have a trace of melancholy. The rain continued to fall, and the military training was still going on. Because of the rain, the instructor taught us military songs in the classroom today. At first, I was not interested, but the majestic lyrics and inspiring songs made me feel that the life of a soldier was actually very fulfilling and happy. "Soldiers die for the country, the soul of the territory" is the purpose of the army and the people to make selfless contributions to the people, "unity is strength" let me cherish the time together with this class. One military song after another let me feel that the soldiers are sacred, let me admire them from the heart. At noon, in order to let us relax, the teacher gave us a movie to watch. Although not finished, but let us harvest a lot, feel a lot. In order to participate in the mission, a military couple postponed their marriage. While on a mission, a woman died. There are many, many more stories like this, soldiers sacrifice too much to defend the country and serve the people. When standing military posture, the teacher asked us to stand still, very hard. But the instructor said to us: "The more you want to be in the most tired time, the more you want to persist." As night falls, the second day of military training is also coming to an end. The good and bad results of military training are directly included in our comprehensive archives, so I strive to do better. Military training is very hard, but persistence is victory, some people say: "only enjoy the blessing, there is no hardship." If you do it, do it well. Stars twinkle, dotted the sky, changing into a beautiful starry sky. The brook murmuring and tinkling. Life is so beautiful, the same thing can not be repeated, so cherish every person, every thing, every minute and every second!"Army" is a glorious symbol of the motherland, but also a glorious task; "Training" is a kind of full of vigor and vitality, such as the spirit of flattery. Combined, these two words make for a long, choppy exercise that inspires the heart. The teacher asked us to write a military training diary, I think it should be a composition, because the important thing is not the record of a day, but our experience and inner thoughts. I come from Zhejiang, more than 2,500 kilometers of long-distance travel, for the childhood when I was a boy rooted in the deep heart of the aviation dream, came here is to fight for the dream of childhood. Now that I am half a man, military training has taught me a kind of persistence, unity and responsibility. Near is the responsibility for oneself now, far is the future responsibility for work and family; Teach us no longer wayward, no longer parents pain in the back of the palm of the child, no longer the flowers in the greenhouse, remind us that we have grown up, is a college student. Today is the first day of formal military training, including the military posture, stop the transfer of law, military appearance and collation... There are not many things to learn after a day, but against the overhead sun, I still feel particularly depressed and irritable, and the motionless posture of the army is the torture of a restless big boy! For this, I would like to thank the serious and careful instructors, for wiping the sweat into our eyes is every kind of care, thank you instructors, and we also sweat your hard work! In short, the first day of military training taught us is perseverance, with our unremitting persistence to calm the body's restlessness, let us in the hot sun calm natural cool! Everyone to do their own actions and responsibilities is a collective, in order to achieve the effect of high firewood flame. Flat language can not vividly depict a vivid picture of military training, but it is the true portrayal of my heart.

February 5th (Washington, D.C.) – Who is in the President’s Cabinet? Amazingly, it is a question that has never been answered because the “Cabinet” is not an organization that was created by the Constitution or any law. The only relevant clause of the Constitution (Article 2 § Section 2 § Clause 1) says that the President may require the opinion of the “principal Officer in each of the executive Departments, upon any Subject relating to the Duties of their respective Offices....” President George Washington interpreted this to mean he could create a working committee that regularly advised him, and it has been a tradition maintained by every subsequent President since then.
