Molly, you're finally back. I haven't seen you for three years since you went to Canada<br />to learn skiing.<br />Yeah, I miss home so much.<br />How was your life there?<br />The natural environment in Canada is truly great. I would take a day off each week and<br />go hiking with my friend who is a Japanese skier.<br />Fantastic. You've been training to be a professional skier for 13 years, right?<br />I'm afraid you've got it wrong. I started ice skating when I was only four years old,<br />and then I moved to skiing three years later.<br />But why do you love snow so much? It doesn't even snow here in Singapore.<br />Ha ha. Well, I always saw it on TV. Most importantly, my mother often took me to many<br />countries that are famous for snow. I've been attracted by the winter scenery ever since.<br />I was born in January. I guess my birthday also has an influence on my choice of career.<br />Molly, you're finally back.
