I wouldn’t go after fashion. First ,because it costs so much money. You have to keep buying the clothes of the latest fashion and style. That’s a whole lot of money to be spent. Also, It’s energy-consuming. Since you have to be kept checking the newspaper and tune in to the radio or TV for the latest fashion which changes frequently. So it is hard to follow. Then I don’t follow.

My favorite holiday is one of the traditional festivals in China : Spring Festival. First, because it is really an occasion of family gathering. Only at Spring Festival do I have a chance to be back to home in Nanjing. Then I can meet my mom, dad, sister and so on. Second, I can have some delicious food made by my mom who is a good cook. My favorite dish is “ants climbing tree” made by my mom. Finally, at Spring Festival, I can take a few days off. Because I am a real workaholic . I work about 7 days a week. I really wanna take a vacation somehow. So those are some of the reasons that I make Spring Festival my favorite holiday.

If I have $10 million, I will spend it on several things. First, I’d like to spend $2 million buying a huge house or even villa to house my mom, dad, and some sisters. Because, I am livin’ in Beijing while they are in Nanjing. I miss them and they miss me. So I want to live with them. Second, I will invest $3 million in stocks, bonds etc to make me have more money. Just as the saying goes “Never put all your eggs in one basket”. So I will try to diversify my investment vehicles. Finally, I will spend the rest on vacationing. I am crazy about traveling all around the world. I will go to Nepal in the first place. That’s my favorite country in the whole world. It is a fantastic place to visit.
