After enjoying the discount that ICBC provides, we are very happy and drove back to home. I took most part of these necessities to my wife’s home. I hope these necessities can make my daughter feel good and hope she enjoys them, because this evening I have a party with my university classmates. I drove to my own home on noon. As you know, during the period during noon and evening, I can have my English class as like usually. And when I finish my class, I will do some housework, for example, feel gas in my bicycle and clean my bathroom.
