VIP Class Notes (Rebekah) S + P

Last week, we had the dragon boat festival, we went to the Suzhou for a vacation. Me and my classmates, when we finished I wanted to give them money, when we got back, I asked how much to pay them. They said I didn’t need to pay because we have a good relationship, I don’t think that is a good reason. They decided to have a dinner and I can pay.

I don’t want anyone to pay money for me.

When we are 18 we leave home and school, we have a job and we have to pay everything for ourself. If anyone paid money or something for you, you need to,

I don’t wanna be a rich woman, I don’t care who pay for me.

My values: I want to be successful and financially independent.

I want to be financially independent, but I don’t care to be rich.

We only have one life, so we need to listen to our heart.

We like to eat the food, the famous food in Suzhou is the noodles, we ordered three bowls of the noodles. I think its very expensive, it was very expensive, 500 RMB, but the restaurant was very famous. I think it was so so.  The restaurant has beautiful decoration. My classmates choose it.

I like to sleep at a good hotel, I think the new hotel is the good choose. But if the old hotel, is good equipment, I like it.

Revised

Last week, we had the for dragon boat festival, we went to the Suzhou for a vacation. Me and My two classmates paid for everything during our trip. When we got back/home, when we finished I wanted to give them money, when we got back. I asked how much I owed to pay them. They said I didn’t need to pay because we are good friends have a good relationship, but I don’t think that is a good reason. I didn’t feel comfortable owing them money. They refused to let me pay, but suggested that I just buy them dinner  this weekend, so its equal. They decided to have a dinner and I can pay.  

I don’t want anyone to pay money for me. I don’t want to owe anyone money. 

When we are 18 we leave home and school, we have a job and we have to pay everything for ourself.
