三. 日记
Although I have my hands full with work recently, I'm pretty happy. I believe, no pain, no gain. When I was young, my Dad often told me, don't be afraid of hard work, and young people should never spare themselves in their work. Therefore, no matter how busy or tired I am now, I'll try my best to do the things that I can do.
