Find happiness when I change to new Experiences













I fine happiness when I change to new experiences. Lots of new performances went on from late March, such as had dinner in friends' apartment as well as made new friends, BBQ, and group meeting with my old friends from elementary school, etc. They were the wonderful new experiences, and I gained tremendous benefits from them.

First of all, I was invited by my classmates to have a dinner, because they just moved to the new apartment, and they wanted to make more friends in the United States(they are all international students). We went to Chinese Supermarket bought some foods, then we cooked by ourselves. as soon all of our classmates came, we had all our delicious food already. During the dinner, we talked about our different country's tranditions and habbies. It was really interesting and funny. Afrer the dinner, we played a game called true or dare, which was recommoned by me, hehe. I taught them how to play(basically it is about the person who was been chose whether to answer people's tough question or you choose to act some crazy behavior). Everyone was extraordinary happy and excited. Dispite we were in same class for about one semester, we don't even know the name of them. From this experience, we knew each other so much, and became close friends.

Secondary, another great experience was BBQ. We were invited by our classmate named Nancy. Here I want to strongly introcude my friend Nancy. I don't know how old is she, but she told me that she has 6 grandchildren. Everybody asked her why does she still go to school, it is unusual. her answer inpressed me:"is it better stay at home, face the wall? or is it better go to school learn some new stuffs?" Chinese people always say:"it is never too old to learn". She demonsrates this point. At her house, we were intensive felt that Nancy has such a perfect family. We were keenly envy. From this experience, I promised to myself, If I have chance, I will make my life as perfect as Nancy, and make my mind as young as her when I get old.

The third important experience was that I had a group meeting with my elementary school friends. I havn't seen them until I graduated from elementary school. Luckily we still connect with each other often. When I saw them, everything looks different. Their face looks different, their mind looks different, especially their behaviors are so different. We talked about our foolish behaviors when we were little, and we talked about our plans and future. One of my friends showed us the pictures we took when we were little, it was really funny and cute. We didn't do lots things, but we all felt so exhilarated, I dont know why, just happy.

I fine happiness because I enhance myself everyday and I dont feel like I waste time. Changing is like an enzyme that make you to be more mature. All the changes, good or bad, are the good chances for human to reflect upon the past and meditate upon the present and envision about the future. I believe I can have a smooth shift given I am a person with aspirations, and I commitment will be chastened from the experiences. I am also able to navigate, to steer, to receive and to give on my journey ahead, and have an enjoyable time with the new people and new environment.
