The Shawshank Redemption

an inmate = a prisoner 监狱人

Original

This Saturday I will go to Yantai to look at my brother’s apartment, I will design his apartment. I have bought fly tickets. But today he told me a bad news, he said the apartment have installed a door, because his apartment is faster, he haven’t got the key. So I asked him if he can get a key. Later he showed me a picture and told me maybe my design hard to come true. I don’t like his attitude. As a designer, sometimes we need to change the space, knock down a wall or make a new wall, but my brother he can’t understand, and I noticed he is so afraid of changing something or someone doesn’t let him do that. Before I told him I will change the location of radiator, he said: “why you change it, I think they had some reason to put it in there”. I told him sometimes you need to change something to make your life more convenient. I think this work will be a hard work in the future.

This Saturday I will go to Yantai to look at my brother’s apartment, that I will design for him. I have already bought flight tickets. But today he told me a bad piece of news, he said a new door was installed in the apartment and he didn’t have the key to it because his apartment was new. So I asked him if he could get one.

Later he showed me a picture and told me maybe my design was hard to come true. I don’t like his attitude. As a designer, sometimes we need to change the space, knock down a wall or make a new one, but my brother he can’t understand, and I noticed he is so afraid of changing something or that someone doesn’t let him do that.

Before, I told him I would change the location of the radiators and he said: “why do you change it, I think they had a reason to put them in there”.

I told him sometimes you need to change something to make your life more comfortable. I think this work will be a hard one. in the future.
