ADVICE

We can find various ways to get advice from outside sources such as from parents, friends, internet, and so on. It is important to seek suggestions when you want to make a big decision because different people have distinct opinion on the coming thing, and generally our closed parents and friends try their best to give us the most beneficial advice to help us.


The best advice gave to me should be continuing my education in the United State from my parents. When I graduated from the university in my home contry, I wanted to extend my education in China. However, my father recommended that I should experience some new life challenges and accumulate the wide knowledges from the United State. As following my parents' suggestion, I started my new life in California and already got used to this way of life. Without doubt, I'd like the life here and hope I can start to general study early.

In addition, when consider what advice I gave to others, I have no idea about that because I prefer to consider the advice as discussion. The first interesting thing came in my mind is that I introduce one of my male friends to one of my female friends, and now they became an happy couple. Is it the successful advice?
