A few days ago, my manager always scold me. I have a think of to move to another department. Now it’s ok, maybe my manager had some unhappy things, these days he’s very easily to be angry. It’s not all the reason, if I change another department like sales department, I must to meet more pressure and I’m not very sure can I up to the scratch.

I very hate to eat alone outside. I like go shopping alone, because I will feel more freedom and don’t take care others. I think I will follow my own feeling. I think something I choose is suitable for me, I know what kind of style suit for me. For the double 11 festival, I just choose some commodity things, because it use so fast. I buy less clothes on TB. Most of the things, if you try it, you look different than picture, you need to take back, it waste time and you need to pay the shipping.
