A book that I've read and really enjoyed is named "Live the life". This book was published in 1929 and later a movie was made with the same title. I got to know it a couple of years ago, honestly, a friend of mine recommended it to me. The book is like a tragedy and family drama which can be considered as one of the most dramatic and realistic stories ever. That book deals with the life, happiness, sadness and hardships of the Roy family in a rural area. Because of their terrible conditions, they moved to a different place in search of a better life, but they had to face a great deal of problems and losses during their travel to a new destination. The book describes the rural life and its people, their suffering, their joy, the beautiful countryside, green fields, flowers and many more things that become alive in the story thanks to the great writing style of the writer. He wrote them in a couple of pages, you know, those people who were living a century ago, and then he started telling the story of a typical family who was struggling more than the others, even in an area where people already had problems to live. This book marked me because it made me look at different life and the people with another eye. Above all, this has made me very warm inside as I have a clear view of the history and its past life.

School days were the best part of my life. But there were some rules that I dislike, and getting punished for not taking homework was one of them. Without consideration for the possible reason, the teachers and the schools made the rule to us. This rule was made to dissuade the bad students from trying to escape their duties, but the innocent students were also involved in. The majority of them was against the rule but had no way to express their feelings. You know, most of them just forgot the paper on the table, or had good reasons for not taking it. The teachers did not really punish us all the way. In fact, we had to do the homework during class, and we had to complete them by the time the class was over. I have to say that it was nearly impossible to focus on the course and the homework at the same time. As a result, the students who were punished had to sacrifice the class lessons. I feel like it was a total waste of time, and it could not impact the students positively, because we all believe that 80% of the understanding is done in class. For all these reasons, I did not like that rule in school, and tried my best with some friends to make the schools remove it from the rules.

I was very fond of toys in my childhood. In fact, playing with toys was my favorite activity. I had a good collection of toys. There were different toys like cars, bikes, dolls, some guns and a robot as well. However, my favorite on was a remote-controlled car. It was a small version of a Ferrari, which is one of the most famous racing brands today. My father gave it to me after I asked it for so long, it was on my tenth birthday. I loved it the moment I saw it, and couldn't take my eyes off it, and if I had been allowed to, I would have taken it to school with me every day. It looked quite amazing and trendy. It was red in color which was my favorite one. It had some wonderful features. For example, it had a beautiful body. The wheels were stunning as well. It had a rechargeable battery and a radio remote control also, so I could drive it all around the house. But the fascinating thing about the car was its speed. It was amazingly fast. I remember that I had a friend who had a similar car, so we would always have little races of our own, and I always won, he was so annoyed every time. It was by far my favorite toy, and the best gift I got. It was so special that I still have it today. It doesn't work anymore, but it is still beautiful, and I put it in my bedroom.

About that topic, I would like to talk about the river that crosses Venice, the famous Italian city for lovers. It is no secret today that in order to please your girlfriend or wife and do something romantic for her, you should take her to that particular city. I can't say why this city became the capital town of love, but today it is undeniable. And it has one famous attraction, which is a little boat ride on that special river. Not only Italian people, but more generally people from all around the world come for that ride. It is a very relaxing and romantic experience, because the river is so clean and calm. The boat only hosts 4 people, which are the sailor, a singer, and the two lovers. While the boat goes very slow, there is a person who sings love songs, and the couple can enjoy a good time while crossing that river. Back in the days, it was even more important because the locals used that water to live. They had a system that purifies the water so that they can drink it, or cook with it, and so on. They also used it to water the plants and the trees which would give them nice fruits and vegetables. It used to be a very rainy region, so the level of the river never went down. I really hope that one day I can take my girl there, since it is pretty expensive to visit.

I've met many smart people in my life. Today, I'm going to talk about one in particular. His name is David. Originally, he is from a small part of Thailand, but his family moved to China 5 years ago. So, now, he lives in Shanghai with his parents. David works as a car designer in BMW, a renowned automobile company. He is appointed in the head office in Shanghai. He completed his Bachelor of Technology in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Shanghai. I feel that he is one of the smartest men I have ever seen. Despite being a fresh graduate, he was offered a place in a world-class organization. Many senior people struggle for years to join such companies. He made it in the first year of his career. That is definitely a remarkable achievement. This was made possible because he knows so much about various subjects, I love discussing with him because he always has an answer to my questions, and even if he doesn't, he knows what to do to get the answer. Another reason why I think he is brilliant is that he is an active learner. Normally, when anyone starts working, they don't like improving their knowledge or skills. But, this is not the case with him. He is always willing to expand his knowledge and general culture. He often reads periodicals and attends seminars to keep himself updated with the latest information. All these things make him different from others. I can't help but admire him. He is a role model for me.

I can't recall the name of this person but he was around 40 years old. On the date of job interview, I reached the office and I was completely wet because a hard rain hit me on the way. I could not wait somewhere scaring that I would be late for the interview. After I got there, he asked me to wait in the conference room and did not show up in next 30 minutes. After that I handed him the papers very politely and he was very much annoyed because he could not find the original certificates. I told him that I was required to bring the copies. I also assured him that I can provide the necessary documents anytime he likes. He got even angrier when he noticed that my clothes were wet. He did not even offer me a dry towel or something like that. From the very first moment I met him, I disliked him. He was mean, rude and unfriendly. When he told me that I was not properly dressed for the interview indicating my wet shirt, I first wanted to leave the office immediately. However, I didn't do it in that way. I finally got the job, but it was a hard time to go through.

Well, I'm a big fan of barbecues and I would like to talk about the first time I tried some typical barbecue food. This happened when I was 10 years old. My family and I went out to celebrate my birthday. After putting so much thought into some new food of our meal, we decided to go to a BBQ restaurant not very far from our house. It was a typical South-American restaurant and the waiters were wearing large straw hats, like they would in their country. We ordered three dishes with different tastes. One of them which really interested me was made of grilled beef, flavored with some spices that I never tasted before, but they made the meat taste so good that it felt like a dream. Not only was it delicious, but also looked appealing, with lots of colors and side food to accompany the meat. There also was a salad, but not the typical one. It was very rich and even had all kinds of meat in it, I liked it very much. Then we tried the grilled fish which came with a green sauce that seemed weird at first but was perfect. What I really enjoyed was that we could watch as it was cooked in front of us. I loved how juicy it was and the scent it had. Just mentioning about it that makes me want to go back again. I mean, this BBQ was out of this world. That was the first time I had tried some foreign food, and I really enjoyed that experience.

Mention about the topic, I think a public coffee shop which is on the mountain comes to my mind. You know, to be exact, it is located in the suburb not the city center, apparently, quite a few people get to know such a special place. People who like coffee and the natural environment can travel there more often, as it is definitely a great place for them to rest their mind in general. Last weekend, we spent 2 hours on the road to reach there, a friend of mine drove his car. Actually, It is a big coffee shop, with 2 large gardens at the back, you know, that is the place where we can drink coffee and play some cards or other games, more importantly, the bean they used is quite impressive, all the beans are originally from other parts of this world, like the South America, or Europe, you can give it a try if you would like to have a good understanding of the reality of coffee, it never let you down. What is more, I am pretty busy with my academic study and part time job, I need a place where I could embrace the nature, the fresh air, the slow place of life, it is not a city life there, so, the coffee shop on the mountain represents a peaceful life that I wish to have in the future. That is it.
