Now, I’m not buy that and I help my friend but she want to make money, but she not just take photo for her idol. She also takes photos for other idols and sell them. Maybe two day ago, she go to Macau, you know the staff is very strict and told her that “you cannot take pictures here”.

Every December, there will be a lot of awards ceremonies. Now, not just one team, maybe ten team, 20 team. You can take more photos . So, this time is the best time to make money. Two years ago, the idol, the star is less than now. The station owner also less than now. Now, too many people do that living. They don’t make money from this.

Writing exercise

The New Year is drawing near so everyone is summing up the year and planning for the next. I also want to make New Year’s resolutions.
New Year’s resolutions are like setting a precise goal for the New Year and working hard to achieve it. Maybe many people’s New Year’s resolution is to lose weight and quit smoking successfully. But I am different from others. My New Year’s resolution is to be a happy person,and try to start taking pictures with the camera again. I really like photography but I hate crowds and busy places, and my strange social handicap makes me reluctant to go out.
I don’t have any big New Year’s resolutions I just want to be better than I am right now.
