日記：
It's been the 9th year I work and leave in Beijing. I always think it might be wise to go back to hometown, to be a good girl, and a mother, to leave a life with less pressure and air pollution. But the balance was broken by the shock I just had recently.
Now that I may be living on my own from now on , why wouldn't I try to make Beijing my home? I can invite my parents here, to live with me and my new baby, though it's actually not what I wanted before. They should have their way of lives. I never meant to break their balances.
Well, I may still need some more time to think about it carefully. Life's just a puzzle to me but I'm never afraid of facing the music.
