Recently, I have a new friend and her nickname called Xiaohei, she give me a strongly expression. Her nickname is named by herself. when she learned taekwondo in middle school, she saw other senior classmates took black belt and she really admire it. So, at that time, when other friends call her name, she said, please call me “Xiaohei “. She thought she should be the black belt one day. Finally she did it.

Even now, she also like to go to practice taekwondo and other sports. If she want to something she want, she will do her best to finish it. It’s good trait that I need to learn.

Edit:

I have a new friend nicknamed Xiaohei. She made a powerful impression on me. She picked her own nickname. While she was taking taekwondo in middle school, she looked up to the seniors who were getting their black belts, and wanted to be like them. This was the reason she asked her friends to call her “Xiaohei “. She thought she would like to be a black belt one day, too. She worked hard and sacrificed her time and her joints, but finally, three days ago, she got her black belt.

Even now, she also likes to practice taekwondo and other sports. If she wants to do something, she will do her best to finish it. That is a good trait that I need to learn.
