Simple ways to make someone happy.
让别人快乐的方式
The Forgotten Birthday
被遗忘的生日
We have all forgotten about a birthday of a close friend, but that doesn’t mean you can’t make them happy. Surprise them with a thoughtful gift days or even weeks after the fact. Write a little note saying something like,“I kinda forgot about your birthday and feel like a big goof, but hey, this present more than makes up for it, am I right?”
我们大家都忘记了一个好朋友的生日,但这并意味着你不能让他们高兴起来。几天或几星期之后送上一份贴心礼物,给他们一个惊喜。附一张纸条,可以这样说,“我忘了你的生日,感觉像个呆瓜,但是,嘿,这件礼物足以弥补,对吗?”
Write a Thank You Note

If someone helped you move furniture, land a job or prepare for a big project, write a note expressing your gratitude. Make sure they know that if they ever could use your help, you’d be more than happy to return the favor.
如果某人帮你搬家具,找了一份工作或帮你准备了一个大项目,写封信表示感谢。一定让他们知道,如果他们需要你的帮助,你会非常乐意效劳。
