Motto
I am not perfect, but I am easy to be got along with. I enjoy something classic, such as classical music, opera, movies, and literature. I also like humors and dramas that can make me laugh, because it is a good way to relax. “Life is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you’re going to get.” Though I am still struggling to live, I believe tomorrow is another day.
