While reading "The Red Tree" by Shuan Tan, which certainly makes me feel the same as the little girl had in the story, I just wonder what makes her unhappy. Basically, she had no dreams so she was easily in the blues.
In a way, I could understand the feeling she had since I definitely knew what it felt like. I have experiences in having depressed time. That just made me want to be alone and not to be bothered. Yet, if I had gotten a positive way of thinking and said "Yes" instead of saying "No", I would have been much better and everything would turn looking good.
I absolutely have my red tree, and that is my secret box. I have collected lots of stuff before I came to Malaysia, such as, letters, small presents, old pictures and so on. I love gathering those stuff and re-read over and over again when I am alone. That just makes me feel more comfortable and better. Furthermore, I can remember what I had been doing when I was really young by looking at my old pictures. 
Hannah, I really love your writing. Your writing is easy to understand and nice sentences I am not sure they are good or not but I guess they are. Also, I can imagine your unhappy face. kkk Hope I can write like that.
