1.Some people prefer to plan activities for their free time very carefully. Others choose not to make any plans at all for their free time. Compare the benefits of planning free-time activities with the benefits of not making plans. Which do you prefer -- planning or not planning for your leisure time? Use specific reasons and examples to explain your choice. Some people prefer doing things step by step with best efficiency. For such people, they tend to plan everything carefully in advance—include their leisure time. On the other hand, some people prefer to enjoy every little surprise of life, and for them, they probably do not make any plans at all. While each style has its benefits, for me, I am more likely to plan in advance. In my opinion, the two styles are just two opposite extremes. There are only few people that follow only one style. For example, as mentioned in last paragraph, if I plan activities for my free time very carefully, I am more probable to do things very effectively, and more likely to develop other skills or interests much better. However, if something happens surprisingly, the carefully planned schedule may become a mess. It is common for planning-people to make plans with too little elasticity to bear any surprise. Even everything goes smooth and nothing surprise, I just force myself to do thins regularly. No errors, no surprises, I just jump from one track to another track. How boring it is! On the other hand, similar things can also happen to people who do not make any plan at all. Regarding to the example above, this time I do not plan for my free time at all. In theory I am definitely elastic for any surprise, but I probably waste all my free time and do nothing at all. We tend to be procrastinators, at least I am. Therefore if I do not have plan, I may sleep very late, brush teeth, wash face, and eat brunch…etc., do things in such slowly and lazily pace. Finally I find I do nothing meaningful at all. If I am on a trip to somewhere in distance, I may get lost or even can not find place to sleep. There are indeed full of surprise, but obviously not any close to good memory. “To plan or not to plan, it is a problem.” In sum, I think everyone should combine these two styles with different weight according to one’s own needs and characters. Take me again for instance, I am likely to procrastination, thus to make plan is better than “just to let things come to me.” If you are a person who used to do things precisely, maybe you can try once to see what surprise may come to you. -- 心要柔軟 像一條奔流的小溪 將他的旋律唱給夜晚聽 去瞭解過多的溫柔所引起的痛苦 你會因為愛的體認而受傷 並且心甘情願的淌血 --
