VIP Class Notes (Lily) [S/W]

do you think the weather can influence one’s personality/ mood?

I think my mood is different when it’s raining outside. When I hear the sound of the rain, I feel very uncomfortable. I don’t like the rainy day, especially when I have to go out to work, because I have to go out with my new clothes and back with dirty ones. Raining is annoying, it make me feel sad so I think the weather sometimes can influence someone’s mood, but not the personality.

Personality is a long time thing, so you can not change it in one rainy day or snowy day.

Who do you admire? Why do you admire this person? How has he/she influenced you?

My best friend is an independent women, and I admire her so much because I want to be an independent woman too. We were classmates at school. She is full of energy everyday and assistant of teachers. She has a lot of work to do everyday. One day I asked her that “are you tired?” she said no, because I know all this work can help me to improve my abilities, it’s good for my goal. When I hear that I started to think about myself. I’ve never thought about how my future will be like. I always thought that I am young, I don’t have to make a plan of future because it’s so far away. However, when I see her achieve some of her goals, I realize that I should have make some plans. She also said she wants to buy a house in ChengDu. I was shocked at first because I never thought that woman can buy a house. She told me that you should have dreams, whatever you are, girls or boys. So she’s really exemplary person in my life.

I think my mood is different when it’s raining outside. When I hear the sound of the rain, I feel very uncomfortable/ moody. I don’t like the rainy days, especially when I have to go out to work, because I have to go out with my new clothes and come back with dirty ones.

It takes a long time to build up one’s personality, so you can not change it on one rainy day or a snowy day.

My best friend is an independent women, and I admire her so much because I want to be an independent woman too. We were classmates at school. She is full of energy everyday and works as an assistant for teachers (EA). She has a lot of work to do everyday. One day I asked her that “are you tired?” she said no, because I know all this work can help me to improve my skills, it’s good for my goal/target. When I hear that I started to think about myself. I’ve never thought about how my future would be like. I always thought that I am young, I don’t have to make a plan for the future because it’s so far away. However, when I saw that she has achieved some of her goals, I realize that I should have make some plans. She also said she wants to buy a house in ChengDu. I was shocked at first because I never thought that woman can buy a house. She told me that you should have dreams regardless of who are you. So she’s really an exemplary person in my life.

Living situation is important for me. I’d like to live in a beautiful green place rather than a bustling city when I am retired.

I like nature views since it makes me feel comfortable. There’re many magnificent mountains and special sceneries. They remind me that human is insignificant. I also wouldn’t complain a lot because nothing deserves to be angry with. However, even though I prefer natural places, I hope it’s not too far away from cities, I would need medical care in case.

Living atmosphere is important for me. I’d like to live in a beautiful green place rather than a bustling/busy/crowded/ developed city when I retire.

I like nature views since they make me feel comfortable. There’re many magnificent mountains and breathtaking views. They remind me that humans are insignificant. I also wouldn’t complain a lot because there’s nothing to be angry with. However, even though I prefer natural places, I hope it’s not too far away from the city, just in case in I need medical care.
