I always think that the educational programs are boring and not interesting. But I change my thinking after I've seen the program of 'English In The Air' —'Sail Away'. It is amusing ten teenagers they first meet with each other who will then spend five weeks on a boat without family.

Watching 'Sail Away', I have lots of fun. For instance, eating terrible shell fish – conch which I would never try, swimming with sharks in a close distance, jumping off from 10m high cliff which is killing me, going into a dark cave full of flying bats which is full of scary, playing with 200 dolphins which is so cool. They are so extraordinary that you may experience once and ever in your life.

Among the ten teenagers, Alex is the girl whom I like most because she has her character – tough and strong. She overcomes homesick and gets along well with the others. When she comes across exciting things like cliff jump or bat cave visit, she can conquer her fears and goes for it. I think this is not an easy job for her. Besides, I admire the ten teenagers' courage and persistence on living without shower, toilet flush, and TV throughout the five weeks. If I were one of them, I wasn't sure if I would go through it.

With the program of 'English In The Air', I find that learning English is no longer difficult, which is actually more fun and much easier than before. From the resource package, I know that there is an "Adventure Ship" in HK, which provides similar training for young people so as to develop their potentials and self-reliance as well as enhance their problem-solving skills. I hope I can join its courses so that I can become tougher to deal with problems and face challenges.

It's time for viewers to waterproof their living rooms."Sail Away" blasts out of the water and appears onto screens. The five-week adventure of 10 youth leads the audience into an extraordinary island expedition. Wonders of underwater cities left me an unforgettable scene. It was just like looking at a postcard, except that the fish found dancing among the corals added vitality to this picture. If there were possibilities, I'd like to take part in this expedition. Think how interesting geography would be if you could see live photographs of the islands you were learning about.

Besides gaining the basic skills of sailing and understanding marine knowledge, I also learnt how to express myself more clearly and decisively after seeing the kids chatting confidently in front of video cameras. Confidence, that's the ticket! Moreover, Charlotte, who was afraid of heights taught me that,"It is possible to overcome our fears. All it takes is self-determination" In the same way, the on-line resources help me to adapt my needs too.

I was alarmed at what Aubrey said at the end of the program,"People never appreciate friendships or the ocean until it is too late" In one of the episodes, I got a glance of the dead coral reefs and sadness rose in my heart. In the modern age, people have become separated from the nature, including me. I am glad that "Sail Away" again creates environmental awareness and appreciation of nature to the public: We should keep our faith to explore and conserve the valuable marine resources, because the ocean is one part of our life.

The series of "Sail Away" never ends. Starting from now, I will play my role more meaningfully in the community of nature, in order to see its past, feel its present, and be involved in its future.
