                                                        Never stop
       Growth is a perpetual topic in our times. But one indisputable fact is that people
are always willing to create their own world to express themselves. For me, writing is my way to express my pressure.
       Oh, sorry, I forgot to introduce myself. I am Yichen.Li, a high school student who studies in Cheshire Academy nowadays. But my friends always said I am different, because sometimes I am shy, I do not want to talk with other people. But, sometimes I am very loquacious, I can communicate with others for a long time. So it depends on my mood. I studied english from when I was in primary school, because my parents, they want me to become successful and have the high position in the world, and also in that time, American Dream, which was the hottest words for my parents, even though today I can not understand what means success, what is success. But I am still pursuing my parents’s dream. So my primary school is an international school, it has the english class and english teachers, every week we need to practice and communicate with the foreign language teachers. And in that time, I was a good student in my class. And I had a good habit, reading books, but almost in Chinese. I like reading books in any types, whatever it is tragic or comic, or utopian. I like to follow with the characters in their books, try to guess their thinking, and learn how to write a good story. So in my Grade 5 and Grade 6, my Chinese writing always got the highest score. Every time I talked with my friends, they frequently thought math was easy and writing was the hardest. They thought writing is boring and wasting time, but for me, I thought it is easy, every character under my writing would be vivid and attractive for every readers. So I I think the reason why they don’t write the good stories probably because they did not communicate with their characters when they wrote their stories. They didn’t put themselves into the story.
        I have already said I like any types of story. But the most attractive type of book for me is the science fiction book, because other books, like history books, you can check the history to write your own thinking. But, for science fiction books, the writers are creating their own world, it must be real. So I always like to read the science fiction books, then I would know what did the writers want to tell us. Also Utopian, this type of books I also like reading. After disasters, calamities, what will we have? What will we do? Unfamiliar, so unknown things would also attract me the most.
For me, my favorite book in english would be station eleven or Harry Potter. These two, one is science fiction, another one is Utopian. For me, an international student, I prefer to read English or Chinese books. They both are the language I am using. And I dislike the poem, not many words, but it contains many meaning, I can not figure out what did the writer truly want to say.
        Time never stop, I never stop growing, my dream is not only having high position in the society, but also I want to know what is the meaning of success. There is a book, it said “Success means you hold the highest power, you are the richest person in the world, it means success. “For some people, it is success, but for me, it is not. I am looking for the real answer about success. May be I will find the answer in a book in the future. And I also need to improve myself everyday.
