13 Second Day of College Entrace Exam

I know a few students in my high school were one of the best students, but somehow they failed the exam. most of those students were girls. I didn't do well in the exam either but good enough to be picked up by my second choice. Today I have nothing to complain. God has decided it for me this way. It couldn't be better for me. I met my future husband as I was still in the college. If I didn't fail my exam the first year,I'm sure my life now will be different. Always do your best, but don't regret about the past.

12 Complicated Paying Process

you see, most chinese are not used to the idea of queuing up but they are more tolerant than people in LA. People in the USA may look friendly and polite because maybe they are afraid of being beat the crap of them. remember put on a friendly mask when you are in LA!

4 Nice Meetup with Hailey and Roddy

We can sense this discrimination between different cities and regions not only in China, but also when we are away from China in a foreign country. To be honest I don't like the place where I was born and grow up. In a village that dominated by some family chains, a family with so many relatives there being bullied, their children being insulted, their property being stolen are common.
Who will care about small things like this? Since murders are not rare stories anymore?
The reason of discrimination lies mainly in the people itself not where they are from.
Those differences between people in different cities and regions are far beyond their geographic borders, they have their different culture. People who are better educated and better informed will behave better normally. In China the lost generation is still alive. The generation right after that are somewhat poisoned too. To solve problems by violence and money are still the most popular way to do it. Not all the people what to solve their problem by violence and money; they do it because they don't know the law or they don't trust the police. I'm glad to see some people are getting richer, but I'm worried about the problems in China. Not everything is as rosy and beautiful as the bund. Behind the neon light, how about the poor, the jobless, people who live in the countryside, the farmers! How about the people’s spiritual life? What they were educated to believe in Chairman Mao didn't bring them good live, the economic reform make them believe in Money, that's even more dangerous!

1 To Focus or Not?

There are already so many other websites which offer enough information that people are looking for. However you are different and that's why I like to spend more time here with you than with other websites. A lot people come here not just for information, they come here to relax,just like to visit a Friend. It is another way of communication.
