Darlriada book review

Honey, I feel quite depressed for wasting so much money on driving lessons. Rang the second instructor this afternoon, he said the price of lessons is £16/lesson now, those £60 for 5 lessons is only an offer for the first time people attends the lesson, and he can offer me £15/lesson if I pay in advance for 5 lessons, i.e. £75 for five lessons, not much cheaper than the 1st instructor's (£17 /lesson). I have already had 31 lessons since I started learning driving. I told it to Tony, the Irish boy in my office.

Can u imagine the loneliness when u live in a foreign country, all yr neighbour are natives, they always go by u as if u'r transparent, and u can't understand their chatting, the movies, news (ofcourse not all), and when u feel lonely, u can only alleviate it by reading reference books or do excercises in yr room? u might say all those are exactly what i was looking for. I just want to escape from the boring ordinary life like what u described and regarded as happiness. That's not what I want. I may fail at last. I may have to return China with a lot of lost expectation. but I should try, to pursue my heaven. I can't answer yr questions like when marry, when own house and when have a kid. But I'm sure we will get all o...
