Something you did wrong. How did people find out? How did it change you?
Becoming a perfect person is never occur because everyone always makes mistakes from the small one to the big one. However, what is important is not how many mistakes you did, but how to realize,and fix your errors. That is the lesson I learned from my mother five years ago. Even though that story happened many years ago, I can never forget that. On ten days before Tet holiday five years ago in my country, my mother's friend came to my house to present for my mother a chicken. When she arrived, my mother had gone out,so she help me to tie the chicken out side my house. When she went, because of my curiousness, I went out to look at the chicken again. Unfortunately, the cord to tie chicken was very small; the chicken run around my house in ten minutes and flied to somewhere that i couldn't find it. Scarring that my mother would be angry, i pretended as didn't know anything about the chicken. As my wish, my mother didn't know about her friend's present. I thought everything was all right. However, ten days later, my mother asked me about the chicken after she had met her friend at her company. I was really scared; therefore,I was trying to hide the fact. I denied about my mother's friend present. looking in my eyes. my mother could realize that i was lying. She looked at me disappointedly, and became angry. Despite recognizing that my lying was exposed, i still didn't accept my fault and continued to refuse. No way to choose, my mother beat my very hard on my shoulder. I didn't cry , but my mother did. She said that she was very disappointed, very sad, and she was not a good mother because she couldn't teach me to become a honest person. moreover, she felt shame because i didn't believe her, didn't want to talk to her about my fault. Looking in her eyes, I apologized her, told the whole story about my fault. my mother seemed a little better than before. She told me that if i was honest to accept my fault, dared to face with it, exposed it to many people, she even wouldn't be angry with me, but would proud of me because I realized my error and available to fix it. From that lesson, i try to be honest also try to face my mistakes and i realize that when i become to be honest in saying something which i did wrong, it wasn't very bad as i had imagined because people will be available to forgive your mistake if you can recognize it and want to fix it.
Hello every one,my name is Ty and I come from Vietnam- a country in the southeast Asian .With four thousand years culture, Vietnam becomes a proud of Vietnamese people when talking to foreign friends about the diversity culture in Vietnam.My country was divided into three different areas:north,middle and south also three different culture in each area. I live in the southwest of Vietnam, which is known as the main area for growing rice,providing fruit,vegetable also fish. Because of the fertile lands and rivers, southwest of my country is the original place of special also famous food.
What makes these food becomes famous is not because of the complex or expensive material,but because of the simple in choosing ingredients also the way of cooking. Usually,ingredients have been chosen are very simple such as a chicken in the farm or vegetable which naturally grows in the rivers. Instead of putting oil, cheese or many different spice on the chicken, Vietnamese farmers will covered the chicken by mud without spice or any other ingredients and put under the grill leaves or woods then toast it .Maybe you will think it sounds very dirty and disgusting but it doesn't. The smell of woods also leaves will go through the meat;moreover,the heat of the soil will spread out the chicken and makes its skin be crisped.
The way of cooking the chicken expresses the way of living also the characteristic of Vietnamese farmers. The more simple they do in cooking, the more simple they have in their characteristic. They live rustically and friendly. Not hiding the feeling, these farmers are willing to express all of what they think, want and help without thinking about the benefit not only for the members in their family, but also for strange people.
What i would teach my children is a matter that i always think about. I have a niece,and she is very cute. Her parents love her very much, so they will satisfy everything that she demands.For example, if my niece doesn't like the meal which her mother prepared, she won't eat it,and then her parents immediately will buy another one for her. I don't like the way which my nephew is taught.However, it doesn't mean that if your child doesn't like something, you have to force them to like it.In the same way, when I was a child,if I didn't like to eat something and as soon as my mother didn't pay attention, I would throw it in the garbage and tell her that I finished. Unfortunately, in one day, my mother saw that. She was very angry not only because I waste the food, but also because i lay her.At that moment, i thought my mother would beat me very hard, but she didn't. With the hopeless eyes, she looked at me and said that she was very shame and sad because of my action.She told me that every days had a lot of people didn't have enough food to eat,so they had to collect the excess food of other people, meanwhile, i could have a good meal but i throw it and then lay about that. Realizing about my fault, I was sorry my mother and felt very disappointed about what i did. My mother also often satisfies my demand, but not all. Even though she has a high position in her office and a high salary, but she never makes me feel that. She bought for me very simple clothes and a bicycle to go to school. Can you believe that in my closet just had ten shirts and five trousers? Anyways, but it is the truth. It doesn't mean that my mother doesn't love me; she always played with me and my younger sister even sometimes, she bit my face^^ or tore my shirt. Maybe you will think my mother is strange, but just because the way she expresses her love is very strong. i think in the future i would treat my kids as the same way as my mother did. I would satisfy every things that my kids deserve, but not all of them. I would teach them to realize the value of things which my kids have and regard those things. Moreover, maybe I would play with them as the same way as my mother did.^^
At this time, in Vietnam, all of my friends are very busy in studying to prepare for the University examination. If I didn't study in United States,I was also in hard study as my friends. The event which made me change my decision to go to study abroad is very random.
My parents had never thought about I would go to study abroad and I had thought too. I was born and grew up in the protection of the family; therefore, my life was very normal.I was a kind of a dependent person on my parents. When I met something which was difficult, I often asked the advice of my parents and never thought about the decision by myself. My life was drifting in the organization of my parents. My purposes of my life were study well, go to university,find a good job,and then marry to someone. However,in the last summer when I met my mother's friend , totally, I changed my goal also my life.
My mother's close friend was a teacher in the University. She went to study abroad and then came back to my country to use everything which she studied in the foreign country to teach for Vietnamese students. I was really attracted by her achievement and the plan for her life. She encouraged me to go to study abroad also convinced my parents. After that, my though was changed, I began to wonder about the main purpose of my life and realized that I might do something which I really like not to let my life drift normally like that, I had to do something which is useful not only for myself but also for my country. I want to prove for my parents that their child will become their honor,a successful woman, so I tried to persuade them to let me go.
Now, I think my decision is correct, I am not only become an independent person but also I can open my mind when seeing the civilization in the foreign country. I fell very glad and proud of my decision because I can help in the rebuilding of my country through using what I saw and learned in a modern country like United States.
