For me ,it's not our first time qurrel, and we usually start to talk as usual the next day. I thought this time would be as usual,but I was wrong. I didn't call him, I called the female friend on Friday afternoon and couldn't control my tears.Maybe sometimes we just need a path to release the bad mood, but it shouldn't be friend especially who is kind to you for so many years. I memorised many things before, when I worked in Beijing,he worked in my hometown and sometimes went for business trip in Beijing ,always invited me to dinner. When I moved to Shenzhen in 2015,his company started a branch in Hongkong,then we spent sometime together last year. He always told me some rules of how to get well with colleagues and leaders in the family company. And that's not his responsibilities. I think I have made a mistake which my roommate told me many years ago ,it's that I sometimes put my living rules and needs of life on other people,that's not fair cause everyone has their living proposals. The most important thing is that I shouldn't evaluate other's life and oppcupation even if he is my good friend and spoiled me sometimes.

For me, it's not our first time It wasn't our first quarrel, and we usually start to talk as usual again the next day. I thought this time would be the same as usual, but I was wrong. I didn't call him, I called the female friend on Friday afternoon and couldn't control my tears. Maybe sometimes we just need a path to release the a bad mood, but it shouldn't be friend, especially one who was kind to you for so many years.
I memorised remembered many things from before, when I worked in Beijing, he worked in my hometown and sometimes went came to Beijing on a for business trip and always invited me to dinner. When I moved to Shenzhen in 2015, his company started a branch in Hongkong and we spent sometime together last year. He always gave me advice for getting on well with  colleagues and leaders in the family company (family companies/small companies?). And it wasn't even his responsibility to do that.
I think I have made a mistake which I have been told about before. which my roommate told me many years ago ,it's Many years ago, my roommate told me I sometimes project my own rules for life onto other people, and that it's not fair because everyone is allowed their own ideas of how to live life. The most important thing I've learned is that I shouldn't evaluate other's lives and occupations even if they are good friends like him. I guess he spoiled me.
  

Davina, you did a great job, a lot of my corrections are suggestions of how it could flow better, but it was a good read and I could understand your feeling behind the writing. Keep it up :)

Diary on 2017.2.19

It has been a long weekend for me because so many things always have been happening around me.
I made pizza by myself today, it itasted ok but it looked horrible, because it's my first time to making pizza and I guess I didn't use the right cheese. After checking a website, I found out that mozzarella or cheddar is the right would have been a better choice. Maybe I need to look for them in a bigger supermarket.
 When I was on the bus to the supermarket yesterday evening, I started to think of many things that happened before earlier. Actually, I had a quarrel with a ten-years friend of mine friend I've had for ten years on Thursday, then he deleted my our wechat conversation. I thought he was did it on impulsively, because another female friend told me that he talked spoke to her on Thursday evening around 10:00pm when we had just finished quarrelling and didn't talk to each other anymore. But when I contacted him the next day, he said he didn't know whether we are friends or not and he was not on impulse to delate me. (Here I am not sure of your exact meaning, it may be best to say "he didn't mean to delete me impulsively" or "he had planned to delete me before", or something like this).
   At this moment, maybe someone is interested in the content of the quarrel. We were talking about the jobs nowadays; he insisted that good jobs are available easily for anyone who has abilities and skills. I don't think so didn't agree and I said what he thought is because that he has stayed in the national company for so many years,  (Here again I'm not sure but I think "I said he thought that because he has stayed in the same job with a national company for many years")
I can't remember clearly what I said ,but I must say something that hurt his pride, although I didn't mean to.
