My Blooming Life

A few years ago, I graduated from university and worked in a government office. I felt boring and tedious, although it was such a stable and well-paid work. Right then all I wanted was just to do something related to my major, you know, international trade. I’m really really a stubborn guy.

Then as I wished, I left it for a very small trading company. Actually during that time, I’ve transferred like three companies making me have a quite tough time. I asked myself like one-million times “Is this what I wanted? Are you happy now?”

At last I arrived at current company which is stable and large. Now I could do the daily work well even without any attention.

Recently I’m considering to build a trading company by myself, although I’ve no idea how to make money. Anyway if I could really be the boss of myself, then that’s when I could answer that question “Yes, of course this is all I wanted, and I’m very happy right now!”

It's the traditional Dragon Boat Festival in May 5th every year according to Chinese calendar, and it would be the next day in this year.

It’s said that the festival has begun from like more than two thousands of years before when a famous poet, named Yuan Qu, who rather jump into a river to die than see his motherland to be invaded.

To memorize this patriotic poet, every year people put some food, mainly rice dumpling (a typical Chinese food), to river in the day of he suicided when is May 5th  according to Chinese calendar. And also people would have a match of dragon boat as another memory form.

It’s my pleasure to introduce a delicious food, rice dumpling, to all of you. It’s made of rice and some other ingredient, like Chinese dates, beans, or meat and something like that. It tastes a little sweet and sticky, like a kind of dessert. I promise it's great and special.

It's one of my favorite songs.

I love you so much, can't count all the ways
I'd die for you girl, and all they can say is
"He's not your kind"
They never get tired of puttin' me down
And I never know when I come around
What I'm gonna find
Don't let them make up your mind
Don't you know
Girl, you'll be a woman soon
Please come take my hand
Girl, you'll be a woman soon
Soon you'll need a man

I've been misunderstood for all of my life
But what they're sayin', girl, just cuts like a knife
"The boy's no good"
Well, I finally found what I've been looking for
But if they get the chance, they'll end it for sure
Sure they would
Baby, I've done all I could
Now it's up to you
Girl, you'll be a woman soon
Please come take my hand
Girl, you'll be a woman soon
Soon you'll need a man

Girl, you'll be a woman soon
Please come take my hand
Girl, you'll be a woman soon
Soon, but soon you'll need a man

Girl, you'll be a woman soon
Please come take my hand
