My Daily routine

I get up at 7:00 and I brush my teeth. After that, I have a shower and get dressed. Then, I have breakfast
and I prepare my lunch. Next, I drive to work.
When I get to work at 8:30, I usually check my emails and work on the computer. At 1:00, I have lunch with
my co-workers. After that, we work until 5:30 and then I go home. I get home at around 6.
After work, I usually go running or I read. Then I make my lunch. I usually have a salad and some fruit, but
on Fridays, I often eat pizza. Next, I watch some TV and I go to bed.

My last holiday
My last holiday was a five-day trip to Prague in the Czech Republic. I know Prague well because I lived
there when I was at university, more than ten years ago.
Instead of staying in a hotel, I stayed with one of my old friends. It was so much fun, and a little bit like my
old life. I wanted to do all the same things I did in my university days, so I visited the university. It has
changed a lot and looks more modern. I also went to the supermarket near my old house. I loved seeing all
the different foods. I was really happy to find my favourite cheese and chocolate biscuits but they were a
bit more expensive than I remember!
We did some touristy things too. We walked up beautiful Petrin Hill and around the castle. The views of the
city are amazing up there. We walked across the historic Charles Bridge. My friend's flat is very near the TV
Tower so we saw the famous baby statues climbing up it. Those things haven't changed, of course.

Sobre ti misma

I am a person who is positive about every aspect of life. There are many things I like to do, to see, and to
experience. I like to read, I like to write; I like to think, I like to dream; I like to talk, I like to listen. I like to
see the sunrise in the morning, I like to see the moonlight at night; I like to feel the music flowing on my
face, I like to smell the wind coming from the ocean. I like to look at the clouds in the sky with a blank
mind, I like to do thought experiment when I cannot sleep in the middle of the night. I like flowers in
spring, rain in summer, leaves in autumn, and snow in winter. I like to sleep early, I like to get up late; I like
to be alone, I like to be surrounded by people. I like country’s peace, I like metropolis’ noise; I like the
beautiful west lake in Hangzhou, I like the flat cornfield in Champaign. I like delicious food and comfortable
shoes; I like good books and romantic movies. I like the land and the nature, I like people. And, I like to
laugh.
I always wanted to be a great writer, like Victor Hugo who wrote "Les Miserable", or like Roman Roland
who wrote "John Christopher". They have influenced millions of people through their books. I also wanted
to be a great psychologist, like William James or Sigmund Freud, who could read people’s mind. Of course,
I am nowhere close to these people, yet. I am just someone who does some teaching, some research, and
some writing. But my dream is still alive.
