I opened my car window and called out "Ma'am! Ma'am!" The only lady in the parking lot looked around until she saw me. "I just wanted to tell how nice you look today," I said. "The colors you have on are beautiful on you." Her face registered surprise for a second, and then she smiled. "Thank you!" she called back. Her final steps to her car seemed lighter, and I smiled to myself.

I grew up with very few cheerleaders in my own life. When I was in the middle of fighting a battle for my life, I had been confirmed depression, along with anxiety. It has taken many years and more effort and determination than I thought I was capable of recovering from this illness. With no cheerleaders in my court, I fought this battle alone. I am proud of the progress I have made thus far. There are times when I thought, if only I had had someone to hold me and say, "Susan, I believe in you. You can do this, and I'll be there every step of the way." I wonder how much sooner I would have recovered. I'll never know.

So I have made it a point in recent years to praise people, especially women and girls. Instead of just thinking that someone looks nice or did a great job, I say it out loud. It doesn't take long, and it's easy. So, I wonder, why don't more people do this? As women, we have learned from our role models to be quiet. We downplay（淡化） our own achievements even when we do receive a rare compliment（恭维）. Now, when I compliment someone and she denies, I say to her, "Just say thank you."

Most women are relieved that they don't have to deny the compliment; they can accept the praise without guilt.

Cheerleading doesn't require any skills. It only takes a few seconds, although you do have to remind yourself to do it. Eventually, it becomes a habit.

Day Trip to Tarangire National Park

Tarangire is one of those parks whose beauty is not fully recognized by people. It is often only visited for day trips because it is close to Ngorongoro and the Serengeti. It is full of elephants, zebras and lions. It also has some super scenery to go with it. You can also see sights such as the Tarangire River.

Tarangire has the second highest concentration of wildlife in Tanzania after the Serengeti and the highest concentration of elephants in the world. It has over 700 lions living there as well as a wide selection of other animals.

Itinerary (行程)

You will be picked up from your accommodation（住处）. After an approximate 3 hours' drive, you will arrive at Tarangire National Park. The name of this national park originates from the Tarangire River that crosses the park. The park is considered as one of the best places to view elephants up close. From the open roof of the safari (野外观兽旅行) vehicle you will be able to absorb the landscape and see the animals wandering around. In the late afternoon you will have a hot meal, and then you will leave the park and drive back to Moshi.

Dear George,

It' s great to hear from you.  Thanks for the birthday card! You want to know if I have been thinking a lot about the future now that I' m 17.  The answer is yes!

Things change so quickly, don' t they? I mean, in just a year, I  (be) an adult.  And this time next year, I  (take) my final school exams.  Hopefully I  (pass) them! Then, in a couple of years, I  (study) at university.  It seems like no time at all! I  (choose) law, I think.  After graduation, I  (look) for a job related to law.  In the long term, I hope that 20 years from today, I  (work) as a judge.  Let' s see how things go.  

What are you hoping to do in the future? Tell me about your plans. 

Kind regards,

Diana
