Transcript: Here is 212 bus stop in LA It is a interesting experience while taking the bus. It would be our first day in LA and my friends and I want to buy the day pass in the bus. The driver found that we did not have the card(something like clipper) after inserting all the fees in the machine. He faced a difficulty that he could not refund us and he did not have extra card on hand. Later, he gave his own card and even the monthly passes to us when we arrived the destination. I was really surprised because it would be never ever happened in Hong Kong and some people(drivers) are so generous that giving their own card to someone they do not know, or even driver may not allow people without paying the bus fees to get on the bus. His behavior reminds me that I should be more generous to others and even helpful. Sure, we had mail back the card to him and wrote some words to appreciate his kindness. Hopefully, he can get our words! Here is at Pier 39 I remember clearly that I went here alone in my first week in SF. It is not common to see people play such a large performance in Hong Kong without others helps to operate all instruments at the same time. I enjoyed his performance around 30 minutes and I really inspired by his passion and braveness to make his dream comes true. He said that he like music and want to share with people here who spend their time to stand here and listen his play. At that time, I was thinking that did I really have the brave to catch my dream and is my dream really big enough to scare myself that I can really give up all my life to work with it? At that stage, I would say I was still searching my dream that I really want to do and it is value that I give up all my hard work to catch it. So, I told myself that I should try more to experiment what I really want but my do the things that told from others (parents). My journey would be continued... Here is the waterfall in Yosemite Valley. I was so excited to go to Yosemite since people said that here is very beautiful and even apple use the views here as its wallpaper template. I was really attracted by the view here, it is really beautiful and I can see the amazing nature. It records the changes from the past to now and it would keep change. And just like us, we would change our attitude towards things and people differently. At that time, my mind sparks up a perspective that I should come here after 30 years with my family or children to see any changes about the rocks or the amount of water falling down. Maybe stand at the same area with the same pose to take a picture. The changes in the nature seems record my growth too and I can share my feelings to my family. Here is Lego land @ California I remember that while I am on the riding of an Uber driver that where we had been in San Diego and I said we had been to the Lego land. He laughed and said it is for kid. I agree with him that it is for kid, but I told him that it is important for us to keep a kid heart or mind to be more happy in life. He knocked his heard and I think he agree with me. And the reason why I put on this picture is while my friend see this snow white, she was keep laughing and said why she is so ugly. I agreed that this princess is not the one we normally saw but I think the message want to share is we should not focus on others appearances and ignore their inner beauties. It is more important for us to understand a person and just determine a person from his/her outlook. Even this snow white does not look like as the one we familiar with, it is true that we all know she has a kind and warm heart. It is a lesson what I learned from this lego puzzle. It would be my travel diary to record my feeling to a specific object or event. Record my perspectives, after few years, when I look back, It would be an amazing moment to see the growth of self. My born city The place where I familiar with, I learn many knowledge and approaches to face my happiness and sadness. When I look back my 20 years life, it seems that I just stay inside this box and stay as usual as not understanding other cultures and I would say it just like I have only one thinking side or mind set but not a multiple to develop myself. So, I make a big decision that leaving my family, friends and all things that I used to and join the exchange program. And, It is time to put my step forward to see other communities and develop my self, the inner part of me! Growth My FootStep Hong Kong San Diego Yosemite National Park Los Angeles San Francisco
