What kind of person are you?
”An Englishman is a person who does things
because they have been done before.
An American is a person who does things
because they haven’t been done before”.
(Mark Twain, US humorist, novelist, short story author, & wit (1835 - 1910)

Mark Twain must be proud of Americans.
The spirit of Anerica is to create something new,
to be different and to be unique.
I am not an American.
But, I like to be optimistic like Americans.
Sometimes, I do things because I have to.
It’s my job, for example.
Or, because my mom said so (even thought that seldom happens).
Most of the time, I do what I want to, and I enjoy doing them.
I go hiking. I take pictures.
I go to the movies, and the theaters.
I have tea time or travel with friends.
I read comics, and novels. I watch TV sitcoms.
Whenever I can, I listen to the radio.
I have been learning Erhu for a while.
(I can’t tell you how long, because it is a secret!)
And I am taking an acting workshop now.
Life, to me, is busy and joyful.
Maybe I want to experience things that I have never done
so that I won’t regret when I die.
