About Me

Heather,the name of a kind of small, bell-shaped pinkish-purple flowers that mostly grow in the plains of SCOTLAND, is equal to "little wild flower" in my dictionary, not only because it is a nickname given by students, but also because of the characters owned by "HEATHER". They are tiny,unnoticeable, but energetic and strong.Heather always have a joyful heart to spread happiness to friends and listen carefully to what their hearts say. Sharing sth. good is a must-do thing among friends. Food? Books? Music? Poems? Experience? Lightly i alone went away, Just as i lightly came here that day. Softly I loathly waved good-bye, To the rosy clouds in the west sky ... Quietly,quietly i will depart, Quietly as i came around after my heart. I will wave farewell with my sleeve, Taking none of the pink clouds when i leave. a
