Original

This year I study in Shanghai, I have a lot of classmates, but my most of my friends are in my hometown. Although, I have many friends here, but I always remember the old friends. We were very young. We grew up together.

I think the scenery is very beautiful and the weather is very good. It is very comfortable for people to live. The food is my favorite. Shanghai is a little sweety and Qingdao is more salty. The seafood is more fresh. I think the different sea have different seafood. There are many different weather will influence the sea.
