(2016¡¤À¼ÖÝÊÐÕï¶Ï¿¼ÊÔ)This morning, I was jogging in the park when I caught sight a wallet on a bench. Clear, someone had left it there by an accident. I picked it up and checked the contents. Inside them, I found some money or a card with a phone number. Believing that the owner would be worrying, I immediately try the number. A man answered it in an anxious voice. Heard that I had his wallet, he sighed with relief and told me he would return right away. Ten minute later, the man arrived. After confirming he was the owner, I handed the wallet back with him. With his thumb up, he expressed his gratitude to me repeatedly. Seeing the smile on his face, I felt happy that I was able to help.

One of my happiest childhood memories were having dinner with my parents and two sisters. As a result, found that we seldom had a chance to get together, then we decided we would set aside three evenings the week for a sitdown dinner. First we tried setting three fixed days for our experiment ¡ª Mondays, Wednesdays or Fridays. After a couple of week of trying this plan, almost everyone was unhappy. For a while, the kids began to resist the idea. They said they would rather to spend the time with their friends or take part in some activities. Gradual, though, they began to see these evenings together for a very different way. We laughed a lot and we discussed about each other's problems. Since a few months, we all felt that we had been able to build much strong relationships with the family than we had before.

I lived in Stockholm for 18 months when I was in my twenty. I was able to get several fun jobs, taught guitar and piano, and English at language school. They wanted everyone with an ¡°American¡± accent. I also take the bar exam with students. I became friends in many Swedes and students who are from around the world. I was great privileged to attend the Nobel Prize Ball at the King's palace. It was very formal. The men had to wear top hats, white gloves but carry canes! My list of adventures is too much long to document here. It is by far the big adventure and learning experience of my life.

(2016¡¤ºÓÄÏÊ¡ÁùÊÐÁª¿¼)Last weekend, I helped my grandparents prepare for our trip to Beidaihe. On Saturday morning, together with my grandparents, I searched for the Internet for the train schedule, the weather in Beidaihe, and some hotel informations. In the afternoon, I went to the train station and manage to buy two tickets for my grandparents but there was a long queue. After dinner, I packed into the suitcase which my grandparents would need, such as clothes, glasses, a umbrella, and a map. The next morning, I went to the station see them off. Waved goodbye to them on the platform, I felt happy for them and wished them a safety journey.
