My apartment My apartment was purchased 12 years ago. The price was dropped down after a big earthquake happens near here that year. It should be purchase 4 months later if I know what happened later. But luckily the price was raised three years ago. This apartment has been lived by my family for 6 years. After that, it has been living with my parents. This apartment was split into several rooms, a kitchen, a living room, a diner room, 3 bedrooms, and two bathrooms. A large balcony was designed near the living room, It has been used as a small playground for my children for many years. A small balcony was designed near the big bedroom, It had been rebuilt as a study. A lot of books were bought and took here. Some books were read by children and some were read by me and my wife. Two computers were put here, One was used for amusement by my wife, another was used for my work. A small TV was put in the living room at that time, a cheap sofa was put 2 meters away. Behind the sofa , a second-hand dinner table was set here with 6 second-hand chairs. When this apartment was occupied by my family, a lot of things has prepared. The water supply has been readied, the gas and electric supply have been readied too. Of course, the internet connection has been readied, Because, without the internet, life was not easy when my daughter was only 1 year old, she was put at home almost all the time. Some things were bought in the next few months when we found it's hard to live without it. A lot of toys have been ordered on the internet. Then a washing machine has been installed, then a microwave oven, a fridge, an electric fan ... A lot of things were put in the apartment, space was occupied day by day. It was broken down 5 years later because my son was born. A baby bed, a baby chair, a baby carriage, there were a lot of things for the baby came in. After that, an old house that was selling near the apartment was found by my wife, and enough space was split into many rooms bigger than the apartment has. Other than that, we all were attracted by the garden. So we decide to buy this house two hours later, even all the money we have spent out. Half-year later, the house was ready for us to live, the apartment was thrown away.No! "It's worth a lot of money!" my parents said. So it was thrown to my parents.

Why I start a company To clear why I start a company, it is must talk from 5 years ago. That time I was worked at a public institution, but it's run as a company. Like all public institutions in China, the Boss changes every 2-3 years. 5 years ago, there is a new boss come to the institution I worked. He implemented many new policies with many department changes and many promotions. so my department functions and responsibilities changed, and the department leader promoted to another important department. Then my department has no leader because the position was waiting for a doctor who needs to stay at school until he finishes the all-school study. As the oldest one in the department, I have been sent to do the leader's work without the leader's pay. but the work belongs to me was not reduce, so that time I often work overtime. In the fourth quarter of that year, the business of my institution falls in some trouble. then I only can get a half salary with doubled worktime, I was in a big pressure at that time. On the other side, that time my wife was pregnant, I would have the second child with 20 thousand dollars penalize in the next year. I have tried to found some changes with these challenges, I try to do some private mission with friends at the weekend, try to invest some money to stock and bitcoin. but sadly I lost some money because of the bitcoin price fall. I thought and thought, try to found some action to fix the loss of money. In the first month in 2016, I found the bitcoin prices are different in many markets, I can do some arbitrage and gain money. then I have using my skill to develop some arbitrage program. It's worked well in that year, I get back my loss money, and gain a lot of money equal to my full salary. The next year bitcoin price rises up, I sold some bitcoin I have , and got the money equals to 10 times my salary per year. I found that work for the institution is boring and couldn't get enough money for my family. I decided to resign and work as a freelancer. But in China, a freelancer is not popular and will face many problems. Like application a visa, loan money from the bank, buy a house they always want an organization to prove you have a stable income. So I cost a little money to registered a company to deal with these problems. my company uses a sharing office, and only have 2 employees to deal with the finance business. The good thing to have a company is I can give the invoice, with that I can get some work from friends.

A message for my daughters English teacher My daughter wants to practice English with you. She is ten years old and learned English in school for two years. but in school, it is often focused on reading and writing. So I let her learned English courses with US teachers. The courses are for Chinese kids to improve their scores and it was called VIPKID. Although She had a poor vocabulary, she wants to talk more English. My daughter saw I was learning English on italki these days. She wants to try like me, and then she chose you for her first talk class. I know it's difficult to teach a child like her. If you need other information or have any problem with my daughter, please send a message to me. thanks.

vegetables and fruits Today I learned a lot of vegetables and fruits. The sweat fruits include apple, watermelon, peach. The sour fruits include lemon and lime. And some others are both with sweat and sour, like orange, grape, strawberry, raspberry, blueberry, and cherry. Durian is a special fruit I haven't eaten before, I can't eat when I meet the flavor. But my teacher told me it tastes very good. Vegetables are very hard for me. I know corn, cucumber, potato, cabbage, but we have a lot of types of lettuces, beans, mushrooms. The last problem is that I think tomatoes are fruit, have anybody agree with me?
