Tired but happy

      It is still the holiday today,while many people are taking off from their work and having fun, I am working:) One lady said to me:hey, young man, where is ur life beside working? I laught, yep, this is my life, working, working and again still working. Vivian says, life is tought, but we try to be happy. I am happy with working, the more I work, the more I get paid. So, I can buy my sweet heart a nice trip for our honey moon, so I can get my family a better life tomorrow, so I won't be worried about the retirement when I get old.
     As other young boys(may be I am not young enough to say that), I also like to hung out with friends, parties, enjoy concerts,watching soccerWorld Cup...........but besides those happiness, there is a call. I have to take my responsibility. The responsibility as a son to take care of my parents when they are getting old, the responsibility of being a reliable husband who supports the family and give children good education, the responsibility as a citizen to contribute the society when I am young.
     Working in the States is more stressful than what I did in China. But I can feel that I am more and more confident about the future,because I found that in this nation, if you are willing to work, there is always various  opportunities based on your skills and knowledge. But just don't act like Obama. It is always more important to walk the walk rather than talk the talk.
     Vivian told me a story that 3 month after I performed at a TCC concert, when she was giving a presentation about the international student affairs and activities in a conference hold in Dallas, a staff, I think their dean maybe, still remember me when he saw my photo on the PPT. He told every one who attended the conference: you all should listen to this guy, he is going to be famouse one day.lol. What a story to me.
     Yep, I am ordinary, but I will be extraordinary one day. I believe that!
