The Challenge of Change
Hello YOYOs:
This is Jessamine. I’m very glad to be the host on April 25 (Wednesday). The topic I’d like to talk about this time is “change”.
Do you like change? Change can be hard on you, but it can also be exciting. When we change, it can help us to make new friends. It can also help us become better people. Change is a difficult thing for many of us – whether it’s a personal change or career change.
Frankly, change is often something that’s hard to get excited about. At the same time, we all also know that change makes things happen! It’s a thrust upon us; it happens to us, and we make it happen. Given its inevitability, it’s probably best to accept the change and rise to the challenge, and even embrace it.
Understanding how we change is the first step to success. Did you ever think about quitting smoking, changing your eating habits, or having the kids to clean their rooms?

Below are some questions worth discussing. Let’s meet on the coming Wednesday night.
Session 1:
1. If a fortuneteller told you that you could become richer happier after changing your name, will you follow his instruction?
2. If you could have the chance to change your gender, which gender would you like to choose? Why?
Intermission
Session 2:
1. If you could have a big change in your life, what would it be?
2. What is something you never want to change? Do you think you are being conservative when getting old?

It means "Bring Your Own Body" (not "Bring Your Own Booze" 
). Of course, bringing a friend or two is most welcome. Let's discuss this topic at our new meeting place. 
在這裡要先謝謝大家的大力捧場! 第一次換場地,雖然有點混亂,但也感謝大家的體諒!
