VI. Reading Materials
I was always thinking that I'm not the lovely girl in God's eyes, because misfortune seems like my best friend who always follows me.
It goes back to the period when I was a junior student, I always did a good job in the preparation exam, but failed in the final exam, the same thing happened during my high school education. After I entered into the university, I also got a lot of trouble. At one time I even thought that God was used to making jokes with me. Sometimes, when it's dark in the night, I laid on my bed, just felt so cold, cold deep into my bones.

After these much failure, I changed my attitude to God, I think he is a nice person who gave me so many chances to be a stronger in spirit and make me get ready for the bigger challenge and I am sure that one day he will help me directly, because there is an old saying in the western countries that \
