RULE 1: Life is not fair - get used to it!
RULE 2: The world doesn't care about your self-esteem. The world expects you to accomplish BEFORE you feel good about yourself.
RULE 3: You will NOT make $40,000.00/year fresh out of high school. And you won't be a vice-president with a car phone until you EARN both.
RULE 4: If you think your teacher is tough, wait until you get a boss. He won't have tenure.
RULE 5: Flipping burgers is NOT beneath your dignity. Your grandparents had a different word for burger flipping - they called it OPPORTUNITY!
RULE 6: If you mess up, it is only your fault; learn from your mistakes.
RULE 7: Before you were born, your parents weren't as boring as they are now. They got that way from paying your bills, cleaning your clothes, and listening to you talk about how COOL you are. So before you save the rain forest from the parasites of your parents' generation, try delousing the closet in your room instead.
RULE 8: Your school may have done away with winners and losers, but life has not. In some schools they have abolished failing grades and will give you as many times as you need to get it right. This doesn't have the slightest resemblance to ANYTHING in real life.
RULE 9: Life is not divided into semesters. You don't get summers off and very few employers are interested in helping you find yourself. Do that on your own time.
RULE 10: TV is NOT reality. In real life people need to leave the coffee shop and go to work.
RULE 11: BE NICE TO NERDS!! Chances are you will end up working for one!

Ok, now comes my trip to
(Members: my aunt Mei and her 2 friends, my cousin Kangta)
THE SHIP TRIP
We set off on 1st May, went down to Nansha Port and took the椰香公主号to海口. I had heard that it was a cruise, but when I got there, I was shock to find out a better definition – ship, or exactly, cargo ship! It was rather dirty and disgusting up there. Though the room we booked was the 2nd tourist class, it has nothing more than 4 beds and 5 people would already have reached the capacity limit. No toilet, no lavabos, no windows… There’s no entertainment on the ship. The only thing available is 3 little television sets enveloped by crowds.
If that was not enough to ruin my optimistic trip, then it was the lady’s room gave me the last stroke. Pee is everywhere. The moment I stepped inside, my feet was soaked by that disgusting liquid!!! You can never imagine how hard it was for a squeamish person like me to resign to such situation. And I was gonna stay on it till the next day!
During the 2 days, I hadn’t eaten anything from the ship. The food on ship is not only expensive, but lousy also. When I went into the canteen, I could find nothing suitable to swallow. Worse still, that kind of meal cost even ¥10 per capita! The ice scream worth¥1 on land was 5 times more in value there, not to mention other edible substance. Luckily, the fellows had brought a lot fast food on board. Then we were able to solve the problem without going out.
The fact is, it cost me ¥300 for shipping while ¥450 for flying back. It was never about the money, which if it was, I might partly feel better. My aunt and her friends believed that watching the sunrise on sea would definitely color the trip in more senses than one. The people I traveled with are all very rich and respectable humans, and they’d left their footprints on all the 7 continents. Thus their decision on transportation pales my dissatisfaction thoroughly. I wished I would be awarded by memorizing the unforgettable sunrise. However, it was not the case…
The next morning (2nd May) I got up by 5:30, following my experienced fellows onto the deck. The wind was terribly strong in the morning, and I could see no clue but tons of clouds. I waited and waited, in great patience. By 7:30 that morning, when people began to gather up for chat, I still observed nothing in the sky. The world had been brighten, and finally I noticed its weakest source behind the cloud. The sunrise was block by thick clouds, and rising was done before I get anything… upset, I went downstairs back to my cabin and went on sleep…

At about 12:30PM, we finally debarked in
IN SANYA
