The street market that I visited was about like 1 mile away from my home. I didn't know it then but in fact it's a really ancient market place. It was always crowded thanks to its wonderful position near the train station and bus stop. There were many restaurants nearby. I actually arrived early on that day in order to cover the whole market. I was walking all the afternoon, although some were riding bicycles because the market was like really huge. The main items that I saw were like food related, different fruits, vegetables and so on. And the flower stores were beautifully decorated to attract the attention of customers to buy their goods or products. I have been there for many times, so I already knew who the best sellers were and who gave the best prices for good quality. I also learned to haggle, which doesn't happen so much anymore nowadays. I must say, I've already enjoyed doing it because I could even make friends with them and they would always recognize me and give me good bargains. For the most part, I went close shopping, I haven't done such for a long time. I bought several t-shirts for all colors and also some pairs of shoes. It was like a very happy moment for me because there is nothing better than being in a place where you can get almost whatever you want at rather low prices. My hands were full when I went back home and it was like very impressive.

Just last month, my plans were ruined by the bad weather. I am used to go visiting my grandparents at least one weekend a month, but I couldn't make it last time unfortunately. I'd arranged my schedule and mаdе ѕurе I didn't hаvе аnу work to do or people to meet. I worked quite hard during the week to free out the weekend, so I could relax and spend two days at home. but on Friday afternoon, I mean the weather started to change and by evening an awful storm broke out. Exactly at the moment, I was supposed to leave. The rain and wind were strong and the roads have been cleared because of that. I called my home and spoke with my grandma who told me that it was like the same there, and I shouldn't travel in such bad conditions because it could be like dangerous. I was a bit sad, but the weather was so bad that nobody rеаllу wanted tо gо outside аt all. In fact, even the journey from the teaching building back to my dormitory was difficult. I hаd tо say that traveling аll the wау to my grandparents home would nоt be а smart choice. I waited for a couple of hours to see if things can change but it didn't. so eventually I gave up my idea and started to think about what I could do instead. I decided to call a couple of friends and arranged a meeting and we just got together on Saturday to go to the movie or to a restaurant. On Sunday I decided to have a lazy day I might say it was like quite fun.

The Asian city library which has been with us for more than forty years comes to my mind. It was designed and built by a famous French project group I mean forty years ago. It was rather tall and beautiful. you know at that time, my parents were pretty young. It was located in the city centre, the central area of CBD. See this is probably why loads of people like to spend time out there. You know until now, people can find materials and information in it, ranging from bibliography to report, from history readings to public magazines. Millions of paper are available here. More importantly, you couldn't find any modern technology in it, like the wifi for example. You know, actually, it's not allowed to use any sort of modern technology and equipment in the library, as it is a place where requires us stay focused on reading only. Kinda like more of a way of experiencing a simple life. Imaging that visitors or readers can get rid of the habit of using wifi or mobile phone and what they have to do is like enjoying the wonderful moment of reading. This is why loads of people today like to travel there and even spend time I mean like almost everyday. So that's a kind of my point.

A couple of years ago when I had the chance to start my own business on campus, I will say that was a quite happy experience that I have ever had. You know, it was not allowed to sell any products on campus according to the rules of universities, but I liked to make the change of such trend. At that time, the online shopping, like the Tao-bao or eBay for example, was not quite popular, I found that freshmen planned to buy the used books from senior students, as young students liked to save money in every way they could. I noticed that and got started my own business in the dormitory. I collected hundreds of used materials and reference books then let almost everyone knew I was selling these books. You know, I made efforts on advertising. Like visiting different kinds of dormitories, 100 at a time I might say. Just told them what I was doing then. At the beginning, it was quite tough, cuz not a lot of people trusted me. Things changed since the finals or the term examination came, that was just 4 weeks in advance, students who liked to pass the exam certainly need my help. I can say that I have earned 2000 in a month, it was like a big fortune to me. Then, everything went smoothly and that was my happy experience. That is it.

The public place that I think needs improvement is the local park in my city. Indeed, I live in a part of the country where it is pretty much hot the whole year. Certainly people want to go for outdoor activities. It is very pleasant to go for a run in a park for example, breathe the fresh air, have a nice view while spending calories. Unfortunately, this park was damaged by the rain in the past years. This is sad because it was so beautiful, and with a lot of different spaces serving many purposes. For example, the basketball courts are ruined, with many holes on the floor, and the football pitch is also in a bad condition. We could also enjoy a good time in the open garden, with a wide-open land that could be good for picnics, walks, outdoor games and so on. But because of a poor maintenance, it doesn't feel good to walk in the park anymore. People need to do sports, but they also need somewhere they can meet friends and spend some time together without necessarily having to spend some money. Thus, I believe that the local government should really renovate the park. It would benefit us all greatly.

Mention about the topic, 1980s is the period that I am really interested in. You know, at that time, bicycle was an essential part of our daily life in my country. People who traveled to different places were most likely to ride their own bicycles. More importantly, there wasn't any sorts of air pollution at all doing that special period, as the industrial development was rather slow then. As you probably know, most of the ordinary citizens had slow life, they didn't necessarily have to worry too much about the good job opportunities or living conditions, they were far less likely to suffer from all sorts of pressure psychologically and physically as well. Cuz my dad showed me something one or two on his personal photos, a smile of joy could be easily found on his face. This is really important. I personally found this part quite interesting mainly because of the simple life those people have had. You know, people were usually warm, generous and kind-hearted, not like in today`s society where people become more selfish in general. That is it.

The holiday that I would like to talk about is the time when I went to Switzerland in winter time. A very close friend whose family moved there because his father started working in that country. When they were still living in my town, we were together all the time. We met in our language course and became very close, so much that even our parents became friends. After he moved, we were talking about visiting each other, and on winter time last year he invited me to spend a couple of weeks with his family. We were in their regular house, near the mountain. We stayed there because we wanted to go skiing. It was my first experience, so I was pretty nervous. When I first got on the planks, I started sliding and I couldn't stop, I was so scared. But my friend's father took his time to teach me, and I got the hang of it pretty quickly. After two days, I was skiing like I did it all my life. I was told that I was like a very fast learner. Honestly, I really enjoyed this moment and found out that I love that sport, and I will definitely go back for more. This holiday seems quite impressive in my life. That is it.

Actually, the International tourist guide can be my favorite job in my mind, and certainly, I would work hard on that field as well. You know, the ability of communication and the second language seems quite important. I need to master a second language, like English, Japanese, or French for example. as I need to show my tourists something one or two on the journey. So, an international language is required. Additionally, all what I have to do is about having a better understand of historical knowledge, ranging from Chinese history to European stories, from Asian period to American dreams. I wouldn't feel feverous if I could recite all of these knowledge. Above all, this job will necessarily help me widen my horizons. The general knowledge of this world wouldn't be limited any more. You know, what I am trying to say is that I can benefit a lot from doing this work. Apparently, I will hunt a job like this someday on the Internet, I have interest in doing that. That is it.

Mention about the subject, the experience of practising calligraphy comes to my mind. You know, I usually spend 2 to 3 hours each week on it. Most of the time, I do this in my study room where gives me a rather quiet place and moment to stay focused. To be honest, my father used to show me something one or two on this point, since I was a little child, I got started to learn it. My father`s calligraphy was the best I had ever seen, he is good at Chinese calligraphy, as he is a big fan of painting and calligraphy. However, mine is far from perfect. More importantly, the Chinese calligraphy requires constant practices before you can master the art, what I am trying to say is that I need to stay focused on one thing at a time and keep doing the same kind of stuff every week. Seriously, this activity seems quite beneficial for keeping myself concentrated as well. Above all, I could totally rest my mind without thinking too much by doing so, it also gives me more chances to have a better understanding of myself in general. That is it.
