I am Chinese
I used to fancy the dream-like society in Hollywood movies, democracy, freedom, free love, and American dream which if you have courage and talent, you can be somebody As time went by, I entered the college and fell in love with language and western culture, I began to inmitate the way they talk, the accent, the way of life, however, I gradually found that I am still a Chinese, one who loves his country so deep, even sometimes this country does not posses the material prosperity and cultural impact like others, but still, I love China so much This country is rising in almost every aspects, culture, economy, political impact,etc. There is no reason for us not to be proud of our motherland, though it still lags behind those western counterparts, however, as time goes and we interact with them more and more, humblely learn from their their tech and science. It is our generation which was born after 90`s can help this country become a dream-like one. 崇洋媚外(bragging western society and humilating domestic society) is a phenomenon quite popular in campus, yet learning from them doesn't mean we have to abandon our roots, because we will never fall in love with smelly Cheese and junk food, because we will never be white, because we are Chinese I love my country, I will try my utmost to learn western economics and their ideal, and build our country toghther with million of Chinese youth
Story with An English teacher
" You always smile but your sorrow shows, yes it shows", the lyric of the song-without you, that is my impression on her by our first conversation, Her name is A, an English teacher who was teaching at my university. I met her in a classroom, she was testing her students, I wanted to practice oral English so eagerly that I sum up courage to step up to her" can you do me a favor, miss? could you tell me how to improve my English?" , that's how the story get started, I got her number. I saked her to hang out, took her to a Animation City where we paly all kinds of childish games, and had pretty good time, later, it was late so that I went back to me dormroom, at the time I said good bye, her eyes told me she has story in her heart, perhaps something I did not know. Later she told me her childhood, a poor white girl who has a drunk father and insane mom, but she loves mother so deep though her mom passed away years, she always remember her birthday and the day she dies. She called me another day to tatoo, " trendy she is", I thought, she tatooed her mother's name onto her arm, she drank bear, smile at me when she tatooed. I guess at that moment the pin in her skin she must recall something. I felt hurts, I feel hurts, still. I think I somehow fell in love with her, she is now living in Chongqing China, has a handsome Chinese boyfriend, frequently photoing her daily life and her catty on wechat. I sincerely wish her the best, and she will always be as fresh a momory in my heart though years passed. You always smile and your sorrow's gone, I wish .
