Optimistic Quote

"Never give up when you still have chance" or "The chance is never give away, you must to find it". These are two slogan is famous in my culture and those relate to an optimistic person who always try to do something in any possible ways.

I used to a pessimist since I was young, I didn't why I always give up anything that made me hard. I remembered one time when I had an final exam in elementary school, the final question was so hard but it did have a solution if I try to thinking more deeply, but you know what? My brain feel exhausted and I decided to give up the question and never mind what will happen. However, I did a terrible thing that I never thought that was so serious. The test relate to another evaluation and I missed a big scholarship for that.

Since then, I try to become a optimistic person and never give up with anything that still has chance. Thus, sometimes that characteristic helped me a lot in solving many hard situations and ... how about you? remember that be optimistic even you think it has no chance!

Birds of a feather flock together

In our life, we can have a lot of friend, but only few of them is become our best friend. I had a lot of friends in my country and also in America, one of them is my best friend and he's now leaving in my country with his family. I called him is my best friend because he's the one whose I can count exactly what's differences between I and him; therefore, we are flexible to control our attitude to keep friendship better.

The most notable different between us is hobbies. He's a crazy gamer, and he can stay in the computer a whole day. In his thinking, computer game is not only for relaxation but also for earning money. He told me that he can ear over $4000 per month just for playing game online. However, I don't think so, he can earn a lot of money but the most losing is his healthy. When we go to school in the morning, I always see him in tired body and very easy to fall asleep. My opinion, game is good for relaxation and making friend, so I never waste too much time in it.

If hobbies is the most different between us, sport is one thing that we can find the similarity. Both of us love swimming and badminton. We can hang out a day for these activities, and that is a good way for us to keep connection or discuss something important in each person working.

Although we have both some similarities and differences, but the friendship still very good basing on knowing each other. Friend is a gift, and gift is valuable when we know how to use it well.

Hotel California - Eagles

That was the most famous song in the world I have heard. Since I was young, the song come with me in the first CD I bought. Immediately, I was attracted by its magical melody. At that time, my thinking about the U.S was very limited, and also the English skill was not good enough for me to understand the song, but the song became a bridge for me to try to explore more information about the U.S. Moreover, I tried to learn how to play guitar as well as the man performed, but there was no luck for me to do the such magical thing like that. Until now, my guitar skill is still horrible.

Fear Factor !!!

In my strong opinion, fear is something in your mind that make you become illness. Ghost is one of the best example that so many people in the world feel scare when they are alone. I used to scare about ghost when I was child, and that was the most strange experience which made me stronger when I grow up. I remembered that was a day when I studied late after midnight for final exam. The bread disappeared in front of me just a couple secs after I fell the pencil ..... OMG What really happened -> Ghost? I assumed that, so scare and I run away my room and couldn't sleep after that.

Late after, I recognized that the bread was stolen by my cat, but the fear about the ghost seem not easy to clear out of my head still I grow up.

Got Stuck in Rush Hour? Traffic !


"Don't go out after 4:00 pm" - That was first come out of my mind when I plan to go out after that terrible time. Although U.S is one of the best country in the world which had the most complex and flexible freeway construction, It does not mean the traffic problem be solved as good as it must be. Since I've still lived in my country, what I thought about the freeway system in the U.S is wonderful, but I was wrong. You can easy to get in stuck on the road in rush hour even just a small accident or something wrong far ahead. 2 or 3 hours on freeway to go home after work is normal with the American.

LA and Orange County are two obvious example for this problem, my first experience took me about 4 hours to go from LA to little Saigon, and then my body was completely exhausted. Where is solution for this terrible problem? The best way I can suggest you right now is avoid to go out at that time if you are not really need to do that or choose the local as the alternative solution. Overall, American road system is good and you can easy to travel from one state to another easy like a pie. Oppsss ! I forgot to mention other alternative solutions, Bicycle and bus are also very good here if you plan to do exercise or save gas ^^
