Happiness is not having everything, but having what you want right by your side.
I'm just one stroke away from the peak of my life, a huge sum of money I don't know the amount of.
One ought to know a bit about music. My specialties in playing instruments and singing are: Bragging (blowing cowhide), holding others back (pulling hind legs), messing around (playing the lute randomly), and being contrary (singing off-key).
Ruined by the internet. Before, I just silently lived my own bitter life. Now it's great, I have to watch helplessly as others live good lives.

Mom says: Rest should be as important as work, or even more so — just like a phone must be charged.

When will the moon be clear and bright? With a cup of wine in my hand, I ask the blue sky. I do not know what season it would be in the heavens on this night. I wish to ride the wind to return home, yet fear that the crystal palaces and jade mansions are too high up and too cold for me. Dancing with my moonlit shadow, it seems like being in the human world. Turning to the crimson pavilion, looking down through the silk-adorned door, shining on the sleepless. There should be no resentment, why does the moon always seem full when people are apart? People have sorrow and joy, parting and reunion; the moon waxes and wanes, is dim or bright. This has been so since ancient times, never perfect. I only wish we could all live long and share the beauty of the same moon, even if miles apart.

If people today speak of the most beautiful lobster, none surpasses the Green Dragon. This creature is born in the sea of coral; its patterns are brilliant and colorful, hence it is also named the Brocade Lobster. It moves like a gentleman yet acts as swiftly as a fleeing rabbit. Westerners enjoy baking it with cheese; its meat is elastic and crisp, truly a top delicacy of the ocean kingdom. The Chinese also regard it as a rare treasure, often serving it as sashimi to honor distinguished guests. Even the shell retains lingering freshness, so one cannot bear to discard it but instead makes porridge with it, which tastes exquisite. Those fond of seafood crave it every day; considering its unparalleled value, even fish and crabs pale in comparison.
Among the many beautiful shells of the sea, the world uniquely loves oysters. They are found everywhere in our country's waters, yet their taste varies from place to place. If it is a fine flavor and top grade, eating it raw is best. Under the flickering candlelight, its flesh has a pearly luster; biting into it releases a surge of rich aroma, a creamy taste, and a sweetness that permeates the spleen, captivating the soul with a lingering aftertaste that does not dissipate. If it is fresh from the sea, open it with the shell on, and the taste of seawater remains. Squeeze a few drops of lemon juice; no other seasonings are needed to enjoy it heartily. If grilled over charcoal or steamed in plain water, the flavor changes. However, seasonings must still be used sparingly; one must never waste such a gift from heaven. Remember this well.

The main reason you are single
is that you don't believe anything the other person says

is approximately equal to forever
Only after eating and drinking my fill do I remember the serious business of losing weight.
When I was young,
the world revolved around me.
Now that I've grown up,
the world spins me around.
I really miss who I was back then.

had fewer regrets than me,
knew less than me,
but believed in more than me.
Ice cubes will melt,
Tears will evaporate,
This must be summer.

As long as you dare to lie flat.

animals will find a shady place to sleep,
while humans will obediently go to work on time.
