Yesterday the Kohler Experience Center was officially opened where our company’s the most important showroom is. Before yesterday the showroom was still under construction constructing, we had already confirmed the opening time and our big boss was going to attend this opening event. It would have been best that we finished it on time. Our manager called a lot of our department’s designers to meet the deadline support this item immediately, including many of other cities of our colleagues from other cities. She wanted them to live to stay/to be near the showroom, so she suggested that they stay in the Park Hotel. But  The unfortunate thing is/Unfortunately, two people had to share one room. They stayed three nights together. One of my female coworkers refused to live with another colleague because they couldn’t cooperate with each other in the last day, they were not compatible. The first because that  colleague talked too much about personal things and liked to judge people. I knew they were nothing in common. The second one likes Yoga and fashion. The first 0ne is pretty negative, just cares about daily life, and likes complain. For example, the positive colleague threw away her ripped clothes, and then the negative one said she was wasting things. I also didn’t like the negative one. Once she asked me to accompany her to see a showroom, on the way, she judged me a lot, and asked me “What was I doing on my free time? Why didn’t I find a boyfriend and get married.” I told her “I had a lot of things to do.” She said “I don’t think so” and then she said “I think you just do manicure and clean your teeth.” That made me almost angry and I thought to myself that we didn’t live together, how could she know what I do. We were colleagues but we didn’t seem live in the same times didn’t have the same mindset. There was no chemistry between us. So I decided, I would never come close open up (myself / my heart) to her again. I can understand the positive one, the negative one must said a lot of this kind of things to her as to me, and I thought she chose the right way….. — After this experience, I could better understand my positive colleague’s point of view because the negative coworker must have said a lot of similar things to her as she did to me, and I feel like I made the right decision. 

She wanted them to live near the showroom = She wanted them to stay (at a hotel) near the showroom…..

—–live is for a long period of time —- if for less than 3 months, its To Stay At a Hotel, if longer than 3 months, to Live Somewhere 

For using complex sentences, you generally use the VERB TENSE first and then the INFINITIVE FORM of the verb.

Example. Summer will be working at her job tomorrow .  —> Subject + future + to be + working + preposition + Object + Time…. + to be + working = The Infinitive Forms of Verbs 

Infinitive = the Basic form, like, to do, to be,

The unfortunate element is –  a bad thing, using a negative tone, unlucky , Unfortunately,…

colleague = coworkers 🙂 

One person – yi ge ren

The First one, The other one/ The Second One…, The Third one, The Fourth one ….

ripped = to have a hole

accompany = to join with her

no chemistry = can be used for Friends, but more often used for Romantic relationships (context!)

come close = to open up to
