As a hairdresser for the first time It is more expensive to have a haircut for my son in the USA than in China. It costs about $18 to have a haircut for teenagers. While in China it is only $3. You have to make an appointment in advance with your hairdresser in the USA but in China you don’t need to do so . When I was back to China last month , I talked with my sisters about haircut in the USA. My brother-in-law sent me a set of haircut tool .He told me it's easy to have a haircut with it. He always cuts his son's hair with this “smart” tool since his son was born. His son is 3 years now. To my surprise, he can cut his hair himself only with the help of a mirror. He showed me how to control the tool. It's so easy .There are three kinds of auto-comb with the tool that helps you to control the different length of hair. As you know, It’s not easy to persuade a 13-year-old boy to have his hair cut , No matter how long his hair has been. How can I persuade him to have his hair cut by me? Yesterday, I saw him playing games with computer. He is allowed to play games 30 minutes per day in summer holidays. I think I’m a little bit evil. I asked him if he wanted to play games for one hour, He said “of course”. Then I smiled and asked him to have his hair cut with the smart tool . He hesitated for a while. Finally he couldn’t refused . It’s too attractive to say no. Oh, It’s the first time I will be a hairdresser! I looked his head up and down and decided how to start. I started from the top of his head. I don’t want to change a lot of the shape of his hair. It’ll be enough to cut a little bit shorter. At first everything was seemed to be ok. I cut his hair carefully . Perfect, looking the hair dropping down, I was so proud of myself. The most important is not saving money but also having the ability to be a hairdresser! I was singing in my heart happily . I was too happy to forget I was cutting hair.My god, I made a mistake of estimating the length of hair. There was a rub of hair cut too short. It’s so ugly. I was shocked. What should I do? At last my son looked at himself in mirror sadly and said:” Mom, My heart is breaking!”

My dog I have a small poodle named Zilong.Her name comes from a famous ancient Chinese warrior-Zhaozilong. When we took her home 3 years ago , we thought it's a girl and my son named the puppy Zilong because Zhaozilong was his favorite hero .A few months later my husband found out it's a girl but the puppy had been familiar with the name ,we couldn't give her another name anymore. Zilong is not a quiet girl ,in fact she is a naught "boy".She likes running outside all the day . Every morning when I speak to her:'Let's go out",she will be excited to rush to the door and can not wait for a minute. When I sit in sofa, she lies in my arms as a baby does. If she does something wrong ,she knows I’m angry with her because she can tell from the tone of my voice. She runs under my bed as fast as she can. She brings many happy times to my family, but she also brings some troubles to us. She likes to bark at someone carrying large bags outside. She also keeps on barking when someone knocks at my door. My friends tell me that poodle is nervious and timidy. I think that's why she likes barking. But sometimes that makes us awkward because some people don't like dog barking at them. When she doesn't stop barking , all I can do is giving some snacks to her . I think I'm not a good trainer to Zilong but I love her very much .
