Pls help me ~~~~Thanks

Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. My name is Jiangcheng, and I am from Cigarette-producing and packaging workshop, Shanghai Cigarette Factory. Currently, I work as an assistant operator of G.D.121, which is a type of Cigarette maker and I've been working in Tobacco Industry for 5 years.

A lot of things changed in this period of time.

For Apple, it took five years to roll out from the original Iphone to its newest product Iphone5.

For my parents, the furrows on their foreheads grew ever deeper.

For me, I've been transformed by life from a wayward young lad into a matured man who is about to get married next year.

But taking a serious looking back, it was not a smooth road, but a bumpy road. To better illustrate, I'd like to share one of the snapshots with you.

I was lucky. Back in 2009, holding a diploma of third-rate college, with an average academic performance, plus a normal-looking face,basically that's me. Then I got the job and In the first couple of weeks ,things seemed to be going well ,but soon after I was fed up with this laborious work and I started to complain. I was kind of thinking the world owes me a living. Of course, I was wrong.

The wake-up call rang in the following weeks, when news media covered the sapping economy caused by the ecnomic crisis and one of my cousins lost his job. All of a sudden, I did realize that I should have been thankful for not having to live off my parents and became despondent all day long as my cousin did.

I've been accustommed to taking things for granted, without the awareness that it might be hard-earned for others.

Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. My name is Jiangcheng, and I am in my late 20s. I stand 180 centimeters tall but I am not going to tell you about my weight, for you may have noticed that my waistline has shown a tendency of unstoppable expanding. I am Cigarette-producing and packaging workshop, AkA the second workshop Shanghai Cigarette Factory. Currently, I work as an assistant operator of G.D.121, which is a type of Cigarette maker and I've been working in Tobacco Industry for 5 years.

A lot of things changed in the course of these 5 years.

For Apple, it took five years to roll out from the original Iphone to its newest product Iphone5.

For my parents, the furrows on their foreheads grew ever deeper.

For me, I've been transformed by life from a wayward young lad into a matured man who is about to start a new life next year.

But taking a serious looking back, it was not uncommon to find that it was a bumpy road . To better illustrate, I'd like to share just one of those snapshots with you.

I was lucky. Back in 2009, holding a diploma of a third-rate college, with an average academic performance, plus a normal-looking apperance,basically that's me. Then I got the job and In the first couple of weeks ,things seemed to be going well ,but soon after I was fed up with this laborious work and I started to complain. I was kind of thinking the world owes me a living. Of course, that was wrong.

The wake-up call rang in the following weeks, when news media covered the sapping economy caused by the ecnomic crisis and one of my cousins lost his job. What if it happened to me? All of a sudden, I did realize that I should have been thankful for not having to live off my parents and became despondent all day long as my cousin did.

For I've been accustommed to taking things for granted, without awaring that they might be hard-earned for others.

That's the lesson I learnt and that's when I began to treasure the possessions I've got, instead of the ones I was hanking for.

Living with more gratitude and less grievance that allow me to ignore the things what others shout the loudest at and focus on the things I do care.

That's all.

Thank you.
