Confidant Today I learned a new word - confidant, which is another word for friend, very closed friend. There is an old Chinese saying which reads "一个好汉三个帮", and it means each great man have 3 friends to help him. By this sentence, it shows how important and necessary Chinese reckon friends are. To me, it is more important, as I am no great man, and I hate doing things by myself. I would always love to have a companion by my side. However, the more you grow, the more you realize that sometimes it's crucial that you can achieve things on your own. Also, a friend you trust with all your heart might turn his back on you. Anyway, I still love to be with my friends and share my thoughts with them. I am very proud to say that I have a few confidants that I trust and love deeply.

Bad temper I was angry with my husband today, for something stupid he said. But mostly I think I was angry with myself, that I am currently not working and don't exercise enough, so I got fatty liver disease, and since I don't work, I am worried about paying for the gym membership, also due to the money issue, I have hesitation for sending my daughter to the painting class. My husband suggested that I should save the money for my daughter's painting class in order to buy the gym membership, and that's where I got mad at him. Well, I think he should pay for my gym membership and also pay for my daughter's painting class without me even mentioning it. But even after I mentioned it, he didn't say anything. I know we are not rich, but when he paid for his own mobile phone which costed almost the same price as my gym membership, he didn't hesitate a second I believe. Okay, I know that I am 100% right about this and I know that I should work to support my daughter and myself too. I am preparing to have a second child and that's why I am taking the time off, but I will try to find a translation work or interpretation work to do. I think that should solve my problem from the root...

What a beautiful day wasted Today was such a fine day, but I stayed inside the apartment for a whole day, and I didn't recite any new word, so I am regretting about this right now. T_T

Parents are catching up My dad, who is in his 60s, has recently amazed by internet. It's all because we got him a modern phone which can access to the internet lately. Since then, he started to have millions of questions of how to use it. Such as just now, he had trouble watching a bird video from a website, he said he has been struggling for a couple of days and that bird was pretty rare to see. Not too difficult, I successfully found and downloaded the video for him. He was thrilled and shared that video with 3 of his best friends immediately. They exchanged their joy of watching that through Weixin (a chatting tool that is very popular now in China), and I heard my dad laughing. I felt happy that I was able to help him, and made him laugh. We will all getting old and out of date, I hope my child will help me catching up as well just like what I am doing for my dad.
