My Best Role Model
Hui Liu
Hui Liu, who came from China, has been in the United States
for one year. When she lived in China, she got her bachelor’s
degree in Marketing in 2001 in Beijing; she was the director of
the Digital Media Marketing Department in an advertising
agency. Hui likes reading novels and comic books. She learned
reading from her family, especially her father. Now, she
attends ABED 024 class at LWIT, volunteers for Jubilee
REACH, a non-profit organization, and lives with her husband
and two cats in Kirkland.
As people often say: “Parents need to be good role models for
their children”, and my father indeed did it. Therefore, he is
my best role model.
In my heart, my father is not the type of Superman, because
he is not tall, strong, or outstanding. Usually, he just stands or
sits in a group of people with a smile, listening to others. If
someone asks the opinion of my father, he will come out with
one or two thoughtful suggestions. Just like that, my father
said, he is only a drop of water, common and tiny. Actually, he
is not a drop of water but the ocean which the whole family
relies on.
