An inspiring story Few days ago I hung out with a friend, we went across the whole city by a scooter, and had late supper. She could tell that I was not satisfied with my life from my sour-puss, and then she asked me what happened to me. I confide in her with every piece of my thoughts, along with my stupid dreams. She told me an inspiring story of her friend. This alleged friend was a girl grew up in a hamble family, but she has been so very much ambitious and confident with her life. It was like she is able to get everything she wants. She majored pathology in university, and was the chairwoman in student union. I was told that she was sophisticated with relationship with people, and whosoever the people was, she was always ready to talk and build the trust very quick. Two years ago she told my friend that she wanted to go abroad. My friend thought it's hilarious coz's she didn't have that big money, but guess what, this girl got a master case in America about human bone marrow stuff which I totally can't understand. You know the competition was thrust, and she just got it! and now she has a new goal which is getting marry with an American guy in two year. It must be the best thing in life to pursuit goals, otherwise being alive is waste of time. I haven't figured out what's meaning of life, I only found my days have been meaningless. I feel guilty to pursue my goals. :( for me, life is done. No passion, no hope.

Is any English native user will help me to polish my 'career objective'? Hi everyone, I will apply for a job soon, and the 'career objective' is a part of my CV. If you have working experience, could you please help me to polish my career objective and make it more professioanl? Thank you! I will paste it below: I did my internship in a popular tourism town in Australia, and I found that hotels and resorts created the biggest revenue for the government. The situation is as the same as my hometown. Since I have experience in ‘Event Management’, I prefer to start my career in the same field. Hopefully I will have the chance to be promoted the event sales manager in the foreseeable years. I will put my enthusiasm to my job, and be familiar with that how the whole hotel works, especially how to control the budget. To be a generally manager is my long-term goal, in the 25 years.

Qustion: the differences between Chinese and western cultures

My ex-boyfriend was an Australian, and I really got piss off with his opened-mind to 'sex'. Generally, Chinese believes that lovers should loyal to the 'love' between them, but he seems doesn't think it matters. He told me he had crushed on somebody when we were apart temporaraly, and when I asked him if he would bed with her, he said 'if it happens, then it happens'. I was angry and raised the possibility to break up, but he claimed that I was a 'Europen-centurial prig' (two hundred ago?). He thought I was too conservative, but I thought he didn't cherish me and our love.

 

If it is a cultural matter, can I ask you western people questions?

  To boy-don't you really think if you bed with someone else won't hurt your girlfrien?

  To girl-don't you mind if your boyfriend flirt with others (but it's maybe just a friendly conversation), and even want to bed with her?

Thank you for your answer!
