how to enjoy life more
Sometimes we just so focus on our own stuff that we don’t stop to smell the roses.
Life is not merely about oneself. Life is also about spending quality time with one’s family, friends and others. When we do that, we find pleasure and contentment in our daily lives. Life is all about love. By spending time with ones you truly care about, you are showing your love for them. Because time is finite and valuable, people don’t spare ones they don’t care about even one second.
A life-changing experience
I used to study in music class. On the eve of the entrance exam, I asked myself whether I want to spend the rest of my life or in a near future with music. The answer is no. I want a transformation in my life. So in March, I started to study really hard. I hate failure. Finally, the result is beyond my expectation. NTPU is not the best but certainly not bad. My life has then been completely changed. Had I haven’t made up that decision, I’ll have regretted now. Because over the years, I knew I’m not that into music. And I want to do something new!
The role of music in your life
Music plays a key role in my everyday life. Whenever I’m down, I listen to music to chill myself out or revive myself. Music has the power to influence people in a dramatic way. Perhaps the saying that there’s a connection between mankind and music is true. At the very start, man expressed their inner feelings by singing songs. When I’m in a good mood, I sing songs or hum. Music is like a friend, accompanying me throughout my life. Never absent, it’s a great gift God has given to man.

family
My father has two sisters and one brother.
and he is the firstborn son.
the firstborn sister immigrated to USA with her family
and the youngest brother immigrated to Australia.
and they all came back last weekend.
my cousin Fred went to MIT for bachelor's degree, master's degree and ph.D
he doesn't talk much. when you ask him something, he ponders, not letting words get out of his mouth casually. He actually takes your questions seriously. His eyes smile sometimes. He is 14 years older than me, and we met every other year.
you know, it's a pity that I got little chance to know him more and better.
because we are somewhat distant. and I wonder, why things are the way they are?
the other cousin suffered from autism. to everyone's surprise, he memorizes things very well. he remembers your name, address, and phone number once you've told him.
have you ever heard of autism savant? This means a lower than average general intelligence (IQ) but very high narrow intelligence in one or more fields.(excerpts from wikipedia) I think my cousin fits into that definition. I don't now why he is the way he is, and I have no idea how to communicate with him. coz he seems like living in he own world, and I have no access to that. in the meanwhile, I can't help but think, which is better, he is born in USA or Taiwan. where are metally disabled people being treated more equally?
the other cousin is now studying in the university of Queensland. he moves to Australia by the age of 10.
if only we can know each other better.
