Times quickly, in a blink of an eye, this semester will be over. This semester I also gained new friends and new knowledge.I made some plans for the coming winter vacation.

I with my best friend agreed to travel to a city in China every year.So this summer vacation, we went to xi ‘an, Shanxi Province, China.Usually we go traveling in summer.Although the weather is very hot, we prefer to travel in summer to the cold winter.So this winter vacation, I plan to stay and work in Korea.

When I go to school, I do part-time jobs on weekends or when there are no classes.I work in a hanbok store.My job content is to help the guests wear hanbok and braid their hair.It’s an interesting job.Because firstly,the manager is kind and humorous.Other partners in the store were also very kind and we got along very well.Secondly,the hourly pay is very reasonable.More important, when I work there, sometimes I need to speak Chinese, sometimes I need to speak Korean and English.This has improved my spoken English.So I like this job very much.

In fact, I also hope that through their own efforts, no longer ask for pocket money from my parents.And as much as possible to pay their own dormitory costs.And I also hope that the money earned from holiday work can be saved for travel next year.

So, I will start work the day after the vacation.I will work until January 12. I will go to Qingdao, China to find my boyfriend.Because he most of the time in China,so we can only meet on holidays.And then we will go back to our hometown on January 14.When I get home, I will help my parents clean the house and prepare for the New Year.

In China, houses are usually cleaned before the Spring Festival, clothes are bought for the New Year and all kinds of delicious food are made.This year’s Spring Festival falls between January 25 and January 31.During this time, we will visit grandparents and other relatives’ homes.

From February 1 I will stay at home with my parents.Because I don’t usually have much time at home.I will come back on February 23 come back school.

That’s all my plans for winter vacation.

The title of my favorite lecture is that life is more important than happiness.The writer is Emily Esfahani Smith from the United States.

This is a link to one of my favorite talks.

The reason why I like this speech is that it is a meaningful and powerful speech, which is close to our life.Do we really understand the happiness we seek and the meaning of happiness?”We are pursuing the wrong goals,” she said in her speech. “We have been pursuing a happy life, but do we really understand the definition of happiness?We spend a lot of time and resources trying to be happier, but depression and loneliness have been on the rise for decades, as have suicide rates around the world.In the United States, in particular, the suicide rate is at its highest level in 30 years.Social scientists have been trying to understand the exact cause of such problems, but they have since discovered that the social cause of such things is not a lack of happiness.It’s the lack of meaning in life.So what is our definition of happiness?Money?Family?Love?A friend?Or whatever.Is having these things really happiness?Through the Internet, we can know that many famous people suffer from depression, and some even die of it.They are rich and have family and friends, but why do they still get this disease?Perhaps as the author mentioned in his speech, don’t know the meaning of life.When we do something in the pursuit of happiness and joy, reality often shows the opposite result.What we should focus on is the process of everything and what it means in the process, what we get.The pursuit of happiness is endless, we need to find the definition of happiness.Every person has a different definition of happiness, but once life has meaning, believe that every day is happy.

I thought it was an infectious speech, a powerful one.Many stars choose to leave the world because of depression, and according to the survey, on average, two or three out of ten people have depression.Such symptoms and repressed emotions are filling the world, both rich and poor, and everyone seems to be in the same mental state.I think this author is right, we are always pursuing happiness, trying to get it, but do we really find it?In fact, the definition of happiness is simple and not simple.If we look carefully, we will find that many people around us are blessed with happiness. They understand what life is for every day and what is the meaning of doing everything.On the contrary, there are many people who repeat the same life every day without anything new.It’s not that something new hasn’t happened, it’s that they haven’t found the meaning to do it.So it’s really important to find a definition for your life.If we find the definition, we will be happy in everything we do.Our life is not simply a cycle. Even if we do the same work and learn the same things over and over again every day, we will find new meaning, new happiness and new insights in it.Every day the sun rises and sets, but every day the sun sees a new day, a new us.The sun is warm, it USES its own light to bring us light and hope.Our life can also be like the sun blooming belongs to our own light.

Hope more people can see her speech.Although brief, but the word deep.May every day of our life be meaningful and experience true happiness.Like the sunflower, find your own position, to follow.

If I had enough time and money, I would help the children in the mountains.Because I think they are really hard.I think they are difficult in life and study.

October 1 marks the 70th anniversary of the founding of China.China is developing really fast and the people’s economic level is also on the rise.But there are still poor areas.Most of the children there live a hard life. Their parents have to work in other cities to make a living, leaving only the elderly and children at home.I have seen in the documentary that children there need to go out at dawn and walk a long way to school in order to go to school.Some of the most difficult places even require mountains to reach the school.Because the school is far away from home, students usually have lunch at school at noon.Schools in such remote areas are not equipped to provide lunch.So the kids have to bring their own lunch.But the school does not have appliances such as microwave ovens to heat food, so children can only eat cold food in summer and winter.And in this remote mountainous area, the level of education is very low.But the kids really work hard. Every year, a lot of kids from the mountains study hard and get into good universities.But these are all minority students.So, if there is enough money and time, I want to help them.

First , I want to build a highway for the children to go to school, so that the children don’t have to cross the mountains to go to school, so that they can go to school safely.Secondly, I would like to set up a love lunch for them, with a special nutritionist for meals every day, and a special person for transportation to the school, so that children can eat a nutritious and warm lunch every day.Third, I want to recruit some caring, knowledgeable teachers to teach.Let the children’s education level improve.

If I have enough time and money, I hope it can be realized. I think it is a very meaningful thing.
