A Sleepless Trip
||
Lying in the bed，I stay awake with my eyes wide open. By the dim moonlight，my watch tells me that it is deep into the night. But my stubborn and energetic heart stiil doesn't show any inclination to rest. It seems to tell me that this is destined to be a sleepless night. Despite a dark night，it is never a lonely ，terrible night because I am accompanied by my naughty stomach who sings passionately and thus breaks the dead tranquility of this dark night. And to this beautiful music my thought dances and my imagination takes off.
The magic carpet of imagination takes me to various destinations---my dissertation defense，my commencement，and even my future teaching career.
This is my third sleppless night this semester. And in my mind，a sleepless night is not always a bad thing. Sometimes we may cherish it as a chance to think over problems haunting us and plan for our future.

- I toss and turn in bed, my eyes failing to get closed for even just a second. The tick-tucks going on in a contineous manner from my watch tells me that it is already soooooooooo late into the deep night. But my heart, stubborn and perchance much too energetic, refused to rest at all. It seems to me that I am definitely gonna have a sleepless night. Inspite of the night dark, I don't find it lonesome or terrible in any way cos my stomach, feeling the rebellion of my heart, would like to accompany it in starting a insurrection or sth, with passionate solos, breaking the dead tranquility of this dark night. And to the beautiful music my thoughts begin to take wings, flying, flying so far away...
You are nervous about your dissertation defense, I did,also, but someone else had lent me the courage
So neat that you wanna be a teacher, I wanna be your student so bad, can I?

- Your rewriting is beautiful and amazing. It’s no denying that your command of English is much better than mine. It will be too big an honor for me to take you as my student.After all， if a teacher has got little to teach her students，she can't be employable. On the contrary， you can be my teacher，will you？
