my life in latest 6 months
I haven’t been written an English passage for months. Every time I came across some trouble on life or work, I would like to write them down in English. Because I don’t want to tell my confusion to my friends, they all have their own trouble, I want to solve my problems by myself. So I post my passage here, and my Chinese friends won’t read it.
I have been worked in this company for near 8 months, I think I love my job and the CSR area. I get to know a lot of knowledgeable people and have learned a lot of things outside school. That’s a challenging job and it makes me improve myself. Several days ago, I made a mistake. I sent an invitation letter to a wrong address, and my boss talked to me seriously. He said I’m reckless and careless. I feel so upset and began to doubt myself. But now I have adjusted myself and try to improve my ability not to doubt myself or blame other people, right? I think that’s a good start. After talked to one of my colleague, now I feel better and energetic again.
After July, I had some problems with a boy, cause he already has girlfriend, and we won’t date again. That makes me sad, but I began to try “couchsurfing”. I became a host and got to know a lot of foreign friends which really broaden my view to a lot of issues. I met 5 different boys who have different values and characters, they are all interesting and make me think a lot. I began to set my new goal. That is: I need to improve my English and study abroad one day. Though I’m 26 years old, but I talk to myself “never say never” and I hope everything is not too late.
In Sep, I moved to a new house near Chaoyang Park, though it costs me some energy and time to find a new apartment, it’s comfortable now. And I should do more things by myself not asking my parents or my friends to help me. I should become stronger and stronger. I want to be independent and I need to be independent.
This month, we had seven days national days’ holiday. And I went to Arxan National forest park with my parents. I drove for almost 400 km, that’s cool, because I don’t have opportunity to drive a car in Beijing. We climbed the mountains and saw different but beautiful landscapes. That’s really amazing. Not too many tourists went there, so I recommended it. The most suitable season to go there is summer.
Now, I haven’t memorized GRE words for nearly one month. I need to make a clear plan for everyday and just do it. Haha:) keep going.

Some thoughts about the lecture"Why 30 is not the new 20?"
My name is Amy. I’m 26 years old. I come from China. Last year I graduated from a university as a postgraduate. My major is sociology.
Yesterday I saw a TED lecture called” why 30 is not the new 20?”At the end of the lecture, the lecturer gave us some advice.1)claim your adulthood; 2)get some identity capital; 3)use your weak ties; 4)pick your family. I have some thoughts.
To be honest, maybe it’s the worst period in my lifetime now. I just graduated for only one year. I’m not sure my occupation is the most appropriate for me.(btw, I’m a counsellor for corporate social responsibility)I haven’t got a clear plan for next five years or ten years because CSR is a new field in China and people may not pay attention to it, which means I cannot make too much money on it. It seems that my biggest problem is that I think more and work less. I wanted to be independent. But I haven’t got too much money and my parents sometimes will still give me some money but they will also want me to do many things as they like.
However, I would like to listen to my friends’ advice. Also, my friends’ circle is a little bit narrow. We have too many things in common, and each also has the same problem, but maybe I’m the most anxious. The others don’t like to discuss some planning problems with me. They tell me that “we’ll going and wing it.” I hope I can leave China to see a big world one day because sometimes I really bored with my daily life.
Last but not the least, when I talk about “pick up my family”, I feel so upset. I broke up with my boyfriend this February. I cannot even go out from the pain. He betrayed me and made another girl pregnant. That really hurt me because it happened when I was his girlfriend. But now I found that I can hardly accept a new one. I still don’t want to be alone until 30. It’s a little struggle.
I’m anxious cause I have only 4 years left to 30 years old. Any little change could have a big influence to my life. When you were 26, do you have such problems like me?

How to define “hang out”and “date”?
I think different people have different answers.In my opinion, I think when two people have dinner together or watch concerts together, it means a date.
Last week, a Canadian boy asked me out to visit an art district to watch some exhibits. I am really excited because I like the boy and I enjoy spending time with him. Is it a hang-out or a date? I hope it's a date.
However he doesn’t always contact me. I know that he is busy with his homework. So I really hope to know what I mean to him except asking him because I ‘m afraid I get an answer that make me disappointed.

Hello ,everyone
I’m glad to be here to know many friends who come from different countries. I want to improve my English. Although I have been learning English for almost twenty years, my English is not good as well.
