Last year I traveled to GZ for 3 times, because I took an examination in GZ for a position as a communist party school. First time I went there for the written examination and the 2nd time I went there for the interview and I passed the interview and last time I went there for the body check but at last my parents didn’t want me to go there because it’s very far away and they want me to stay at the company with you, so I give up that opportunity. I’m a member of the communist party when I’m in university. My university locates in zheng zhou and to be honest I haven’t lived in another city by myself I’m always stay with my parents. At first it’s OK because my parents can take care of me and there is no need to worry about what to eat after work.

“I went to the University of Washington and majored in English Literature. I went to graduate school because I really enjoyed learning. Afterwards, I started my career at Boeing as a web content editor. I’ve been there for 3 years now. Although my emphasis is in writing, I like numbers. I think solving logic problems and riddles are quite fun. I also enjoy jogging, reading, and watching movies.”
