3) Empathy and Fear/Hate:   The thing has been happened those days, which made me hate my roommate a little bit. My roommate got up so early on Monday morning, which made a lot of noise for me and could not sleep well. After the noise, I fell asleep again, but she went away and did not wait for me. Finally, I got a little bit late for my class. After that, I really could not understand why she did not wait for me. For the previous days, I always waited for her and woke her up whether I had my friends waiting for me or not. After the problem appeared, my roommate said sorry to me and told me that she had just got into the trouble. Personally, I felt that I could not forgive her, though I knew that there were really a lot of things happened to her those days and her mood was not good. When I clamed down and made the positive empathy to her, I really could understand her difficulty. However, I really hated that she made me late for my class, which was my first late from the beginning of the school. To be honest, I could not accept that she did those things to me from the bottom of my heart. Maybe the most important reason is that she had been my best friend in my life, but sometimes we do not know if I can get the same treatment when I treat others as an important friend in my life. So I got a question that we had make the empathy to the people who we hated and we could understand them whether we would forgive them or not.
