Hi! This one will be my sixth blog post. I am going to use counterfactual in this assignment to connect with blog 5. What if things turn out different with my dad and my family situation. I think I will have totally different result from right now. It is the additional links for this assignment below:
when I was seven years old, my dad left home, he went oversea to the USA find a job, he send money to home every month and told about his job in the USA. When I remained him about working in the oversea, I said " dad what if you did not work in the USA, what will our life going to be." He said "our life will be difficult and poor." My dad said" we were living in the small row house, there are not any furniture and air condition, even the light. In the living room there only have three old stools set around there." when I was in the living room doing my homework, the room is not well light, I moved next to the window, the small a head of sun light through into the window, then I can see clear with the homework. I told to my dad "when can we have light in our house." He said right now "we do not have enough money for install the light in our house and we can not pay the eclectic free too." "There are some candle in the drawer, light on the candle when you are doing home work, do hurt you eyes, my dad said" I said" thank you dad, I will study hard." In the lunch time, my mom cooks every time meal. We have a fish, soup and vegetable today. My dad grab some fish into my bowl, " right now is your growing time, you need to eat more fish meat, he said." My mom also grab some fish into h my dad bowl, said " you both need to eat more fish, because you are doing a lot work every day." I saw mom only eat some vegetable and soup, I said to mom " eat some fish, fish is good for you and there is a lot fish ." I want every body can try it, because we are a family. I asked to my dad "when can we have beef, I heard beef is really good meat and I want to try." He said "next month I let your mom buy it and cook for you." "Thank you dad" I said. On the weekend, I usually go to field with my dad. He is a farmer, so he plant some vegetables, such as scallion, cauliflower, cabbage and celery. He need to water them every day to keep them growing. He take water from the small pool and back to water it. I saw him bow the waist and light up the big bottle under the sun, his face appear a lot sweat. I hope he can have a better job. I asked him "can you just carriage the water back, them I would water them ok?" "alright, but do not get wet your clothes." he said. I am glad I can do something for my dad. Later on, my mom came here, she said " come on, take a break! I bought some food your you. " My mom saw my red face, " it is really hot outside , you want to go home?" "No, I want to go home till dad finish work." My dad said "you can stay in the log cabin ." I told mom, "you ca go home to other thing, I will not under the sun." She go home them. We have economic problem with my family, we can not buy some thing we want, and we always think how to make money and save it. My dad, he work in the field that is really hard for him, because sometimes he need to do a lot heave stuff. Right now, We have a better life, because he made a big decision to go the USA, and brought my family to here. We are work hard in here, sometimes is really tired but better than working in the field with bare feet. We are fortunate have right now this life.
