When i was a primary school student , my uncle's family and i travelled to China .It was my first journey in my life.

when i arrived there at night ,we went to a hotel, the receptionist told me that their hotel did not have hot water then. i thought it was so terrible that i cleaned my body in winter with cold water . It is not possible , so we suggested to the guide . we must have changed the hotel at midnight .i could not sleep well in this night .

In the nest day , we went to a mountain , we played downhill only have 1 hour and 30 mins . It was not enough time to play downhill skiing . i thoudht the trip was very bad. i would never go to this travel agency again.

Yes, I totally agree with this. Happy is happy, this is no way to pretend that you are happy.

You may say that sometimes you could let your action influence your mood so that eventually you would become a really happy person. Well, I'll tell you, this is sometimes you are too engeged in this pretending to realise that you've lost yourself in your true feelings. Like soaping in the hot bath, you gradually feel the water has turn cooler but, but actually, you are jsut getting used to it and lost... and further your mind starts to generate another picture for you to suit what you feel and what you decipfor.

Happy is happy, pls don't tell to pretend. If you feel unhappy or, let's say sad, pls remember to brave this adversity and take the action to share with your stress with your friends or jsut let out your pressure. Especially when you start to face the fact of your negative situations, realise how worse this is, you really start to turn this mihap into a better chance for leading a more mature and savvy life.

There's many holidays in Thailand, which is where is live. But i'll tell you the important one. It's called Song Kran Day. It's celebrated during summer time. The festival is know as Thai New year too. It's on 13th,14th and 15th of April. People splash water at each other. There's many tourists in this festival too. Thai pople love Song Kran and tourists do too. This is all about my important festival. I would like to know some of the other countries' festival too!

There are various important and interesting festivals in my country which is Thailand. However, I think the most important festival for thai people here is Thai New Years. Thai original New years is not on the first January. It is on 13, 14, and 15 of April. On this day, people play water with each other all the country, even on the road. They also went to the temple and meet their relatives. I consider this festival as one of my favorite festival. It is a very fun festival!
