Hi Pin, Great to see you again! waiting for you introducing the new house.
Yeah,I am in Chongqing now.Actually,I am living nearby Chang'an ford in Yubei district,which isn't the center of city. Chongqing is a beautiful city.I like the light of the city looking from South mountain.Your son will like it too,if he come here. About my life,I think I am in trouble now.I quieted my junior position job and study English by myself.So,There are still some problems of my english language and I cann't get my junior position again.Also,people here don't speak english in daily life.It means english is useless for me now.LOL I think everybody needs their own unique life.We are in charge of our own life.However,The problem of mine is that I didn't creat my life way right yet.I supported by my family and friends for my studying,and I don't have a girl friend yet,even though I am old enough to have one.LOL How to involve english into my career?it's a big question for me now. Sorry to demonstrate troubles. Hope you guys have a good week.
