The Year of the Snake is theirs

Wang Xiunan, a native of Beijing, is sitting on the floor of her Beijing home, picking up a piece of a jigsaw puzzle. She says that she always did the right thing and was a hard-working student, beginning with primary school and on through university. She had some exciting moments at the Beijing Olympics, in 2008, as a volunteer, then became a reporter for a news agency after graduation. The job gives her more chances to get in touch with society, she explains, and says she was moved one time when she saw a cancer patient's optimism. She also experienced the difficulties of a migrant worker's journey home for Spring Festival, and, as a newbie, is still trying to adapt to her job and society at the same time. Sometimes she's a bit confused about the future, but hopes that her life will be a full one and come together piece-by-piece, just like her hobby, the jigsaw puzzle. Wang will be 24 this Year of the Snake, and says her hope is that she can take on some assignment all by herself and spend each day without regret. Cui Meng / China Daily
