Step forward - I want to be a firefighter | Yuzhu CHEN | TEDxPennon Qingdao Youth
A third-grader whose biggest dream is to become a firefighter gives a speech. She's training herself to be “bear-strong” enough to save people and bring smiles when they’re scared. My name is Chen Yuzhu. I'm a lovely girl. I'm going to be in Grade 2 this new term. I have many hobbies. I like drawing pictures. It's fun to use colors to show the world in my mind. I also love English. Learning English words and singing English songs make me happy. And roller - skating is really cool. I feel like I'm flying when I skate. Besides, I enjoy making friends. Friends can play together and share happy things. That's me, a girl full of energy and love for life. Thank you!
