Write & Correct
English

How many days can I insist on writing practice?

Last night, I had dinner with my friend, which I haven't seen her for a year even though we work in the same city, she was my roommate in university, one thing we weren't happy because we waited for an hour to get a seat in a restaurant. But at least the food was tasty. We shared many things happened in our life, I feel that there is no "easy" word in adults life. Nowadays young people really have lots of pressure about work and life, My friend shared me a story: one of her colleague suffered a lot when he just moved to Beijing. He doesn't have a college degree and he only got 3000RMB of his first job. In oder to save money, he lived in a very far area away from the work because it 's cheaper, he every night ride bicycle to get home, it's almost morning when he get to his place. He doesn't have internet and only eats a bowl of noodle cost 7 RMB everyday. I have no idea how long he spent his life in this way, luckily, he got promoted now. This makes me thinking, sometimes when you don't have anything and there is nothing to lose, people usually will choose of the road that no return. Instead, most of people just spend time like boiling a frog in warm water, get used to it over time.

(This is really interesting! That poor man. :( There are some switches between present and past tense. Native speakers do this all the time. Things that started in the past but still happen in the present are present tense. It's called present progressive. Things that started and ended in the past use simple past tense. I have written the changes that keep it in past tense. I hope I didn't make it too wordy.)
