Dear Future Husband,
I'm not yet sure whether you exist, though I'd like to believe that you do. While it may not make much logical sense, you've been on my mind lately. I haven't thought much about what you'll look like, how tall you'll be, or what type of car you'll drive — I'm not too concerned with the minor details. However, I have been thinking about a few things I want you to know.
I want you to know that I am happy — right now — as a single, 26-year-old "millennial" who lives in a small apartment with a roommate and eats Chipotle for dinner more times than I care to admit. I love my job, I love my crazy friends and family, and I love spending quality time alone. I want you to know that my life has purpose apart from and before you. When we do meet one day, I want you to understand that I do not expect you to complete me, or to be my God. That's way too much pressure for anyone to bear. I am already complete.
I want you to know that I am not a trophy. Apparently, a lot of guys think this is a compliment. However, I want you to know that I have no desire to be seen as a trophy — a symbol of your own perceived success. I was not raised just to sit and look pretty on anybody's shelf. I want to have intellectual conversations. I want to help you chase your dreams. I want to be your partner, not your prize.
Yours truly,
Perfectly Imperfect Me.
秋季一个春光明媚的下午,陆游打算去游玩散心。它戴上斗笠,备好包裹,骑上毛驴出发了。
陆游翻过一座座山,越过一道道水。他被眼前一路的风景吸引了。这里树林遮天蔽日郁郁葱葱,到处鸟语花香、姹紫嫣红,蝴蝶在花朵上翩翩起舞。
陆游只顾欣赏风景,找不到前行的路了,他正疑惑无路可行时,忽见柳色浓绿,花色明丽的地方掩映着一座小村庄。
急忙赶着毛驴驶向村庄,村庄不大只有几户人家,家家养着鸡鸭满院、牛羊成群。他很高兴,走过去敲了敲门,他见到这家主人是一位老者,陆游坐下来。老者对陆游说:“今晚就不要走了,在这住下吧!”说完,端出了准备丰盛的饭菜,他们俩聊起了家常。陆游问:“您今年高寿啊?”那位老者乐呵呵地说:“我今年八十八。”老人话匣子打开了:小伙子,我们这儿可真是快宝地呀,年景美地肥,年年大丰收啊!感受着主人丰收的喜悦,陆游喝得大醉,躺在床上睡着了。
第二天,醒来忽发灵感,呤诵道:“莫笑农家腊酒浑,丰年留客足鸡豚。山重水复疑无路,柳暗花明又一村。”

A review of the Pursuit of Happiness
“The Pursuit of Happyness” was released on the 15th of December 2006. It is a dramatic story based on a biography of Chris Gardner’s nearly one-year struggle with homelessness. Directed by Gabrielle Muccino, the film stars Will Smith as Chris Gardner, and co-stars Jaden Smith playing Chris’ son, Christopher Jr. For Will Smith’s performance in the film, he was nominated for an Academy Award and a Golden Globe for Best Actor. The ‘different’ spelling of the title, ‘Happyness’ is seen by Chris Gardner on the building outside the play centre is son attends, which Chris reminds the owners of the building multiple times that it is spelt with an ‘I’.
The film shows us the struggles Chris Gardner has with homelessness. He is bankrupt because he invested his life savings in portable bone-density scanners, which he thought hospitals would be interested in buying, but in the end hardly any doctors wanted one, as they considered it an ‘expensive luxury’. During the struggles, his wife Linda leaves to go to New York and Chris and his son are left in San Francisco with no income and living in a motel. Chris sees interest in become a stockbroker, but to become one he has to go through an internship. Meanwhile, Chris and his son are evicted because they can’t pay rent, and they are forced to go to a homeless shelter, and even one night had to sleep in the bathroom of the underground rail system. During his internship, he never once mentions his financial struggles and at one point he is asked to give one of his bosses 5 dollars for a cab, a sum that he can’t afford. After an intense six months, Chris is taken into the bosses’ office, and is offered a job as a stockbroker, the final scene shows him being in unbelief of the position he was offered and showing his happiness and gratefulness for the opportunity, Chris realises that his financial struggles are over as he now has a job with a regular income.
Christ was unfortunate, for he got a wife who was not understandable at all (though she has her own difficulties and was in bad luck with his business. But he was very fortunate also, for he got a son who was very thoughtful and, I think, tough life experiences always make a great person. It is said that this movie is inspired by a true story, and I want to say, this movie does inspire me a lot. What impressed me most are: Christ’s wife left him because of life pressure; Christ’s love to his son and Christ’s strong belief towards life. Through these, I know that it is not easy to be a good husband and a good Papa, since in reality, only love cannot only make everything. And I also learn that one has to strongly believe in himself, no matter how difficult the situation is, but of course, hard-working is indispensable.

陆游罢官后,心里一直闷闷不乐,闷得快生病了,他的朋友告诉他,到山西村去散散心吧,那里的景色可美了!
陆游来到了山西村,走着走着,感到累了,就走进一户人家家去歇歇脚。主人看到了来者竟是大名鼎鼎的陆游,非常惊喜,就用去年腊月酿的酒还有鸡肉、猪肉招待他。主人一边不断地给陆游挟菜倒酒一边还不时地说:“农家没有东西招待,千万别笑话我们的酒很浑。”陆游忙不叠地说:“哪里哪里,你们的酒太好喝了。”陆游吃饱喝足后,就起身向主人拱手告别。可主人再三挽留不肯让陆游走。陆游只好说还有事。主人一直目送陆游到没人影为止。
陆游走过一座座山,淌过一道道水。路越来越窄,陆游以为没路了,就爬到一高处观察探路,没想到,意外发现了一棵棵柳树、一簇簇鲜花。他再仔细一看,原来又是一座村子。陆游禁不住一阵狂喜,突然感悟到:只要心中不服输,黑暗将会过去,光明就会到来。他一扫忧郁飞快回到家,一口气就写下了《游山西村》这首诗,其中最后两句“山重水复疑无路,柳暗花明又一村”还成了千古名句呢。
