I will never forget that at the age of 12 I was asked to deliver a speech entitled An Unforgettable Experience before the whole class! How terrible shy I was the moment I thought of that.

People always say that we lack of the eyes of realizing the beauty in life. I can't agree complete. Last Friday, I wake up very early and decided to take a walk. In the square there many senior citizens were dancing; I found several elders absorb in feeding birds. Without many cars, I realized that the city looked so clean but beautiful. Some coffee shop, which used to be old and shabby, were decorated pretty well and caught my attention. On both sides of the street were big trees covering the whole city, making a green city. At that moment, I found a city was so interesting. How I regret ignore its beauty before!
