Mature with this experience, she could get a 55,000 dollar a year. And eventually her family were very proud of her. She was a strong women.

International Women's Day

This afternoon, Alic, Eva, Ferrida,Qing nian, Barbark and I got to 9th floor and joined in a light refreshment of International Wenmen's Day. There were many goluptious foods. At first, We all gravitated towards the food. There were a beautiful and sweety cake, some India food and fruit. Women came from different place talked with each other in a cordial and friendly atmosphere.  For a little while, Joseph also joined us. We took pictures and cheered. Then we went into a meeting room to listen two Speekers about wemen right. I liked the first speaker's voice very much. Her voice was very magnetic and I easily to be attracted. A good singer, I thought at that time. Acturally, It was true, She sang very well. I liked to enjoy, althought it was a India song. She immagrated from India with her parents when she was one. And for her first 20 years, she said she didn't know why her mother was always at home, but her father could go outside and work. Even her mother always reminded her never speak too much at school. But her teacher in Canada always wrote,"Less speak, Less activity!" in her report card. After another 20 years, she realized how hard her mother was and got to know why wemen in her hometown were always lower than men. It was hard for her to chage, but she could write music and sing out. The second speaker was also came from India. And she had a tarff experience. Her mother died of cancer when she was young. She had to take care of the whole family,her younger brother and sister, even her father. So she had to work for the family. When she got marriage, the situation still did not change. So she tried her best to devote her for the fighting for women's right.

Friends and Friendly

Do you have friends? Of course, everyone has his or her friends. But do you have friends in Canada? Canada is an immigration country. So it's hard for people to make friends here. In China, as the saying goes, a man depends upon his parents at home and upon his friends abroad. It's really true. When our whole family arrived at Canada last winter, our friend picked us up to our rental house. The place we lived had been found by my friend. Before we came here, we had chatted through the Internet and delivered the picture and illustration of the location and surroundings. It helped us make up our minds. And after we came here, we needed to register at some government service centre. It was also our friend who helped us as driver and translater. After we had been here for 2 months, we needed the Health Card. We needed to take pictures. It was hard for us to find the place. So our friend again came to help us. With his help we got through these things easily. So friends are a part of our life. But how can we make friends? Maybe it's easy to make friends with the people from your own country, you know, they have the same history, the same culture and can understand us easily. I think one word is also very important. That's "friendly."
When we first arrived in Toronto, at the airport, we needed to call our friend. But we had no coins to pay for the telephone. We looked for anyone could give us change. Finally, a cleaner gave us 1 dallor. And he even told us for to keep it. He was so friendly and kind to us.
When we took bus for the first time, we didn't know whether I should pay for my daughter. So I got on the bus and asked the driver. He asked me how old my child was. I said to two and a half years. And he said no. And he said "Cute girl" to my daughter with a smile. When we got down, he wished me good luck. He was very friendly. Later, I knew that when the child was 2 years old, parents had to pay 60 cents for a ticket.
When we went to apply our Health Card, the service person gave a box full of lollipops to my daughter and said, "Brush your teeth!" She was very friendly to us.
When I wanted to decorate my room, one of my LINC school classmate, Barbark at once offered me his help. He right studied some design classes. He was friendly.
All these persons treated us in a friendly way, and I felt happy and comfortable. Actually, we need to be treated friendly and we also should treat others in a friendly way.
Just my feeling about life in Toronto.
