   My friends and I recently returned from our annual week at the beach. While we were there,a couple of us needed to pick up a few items at the grocery store.

  As we were checking out,the cashier complimented me on my necklace. I thanked her,and she asked where I bought it. I had got it at the department store just down the street,and told her that it was on sale for 40% off. My friend suggested that she should walk over and purchase one during her break. But the cashier said she couldn't afford it right now.

  As we left the grocery store,I told my friend I planned to buy one for her. She agreed,and offered to pay for half. So we went back to the depart?ment store and picked out a matching necklace for the cashier. As we paid for it,the sales lady noticed that I was wearing the same one. "You must really like this necklace," she commented.

  We told her who we were buying it for,and after it was gift-wrapped,we addressed it to the cashier at the grocery store,since I remembered it from her name tag.

To our surprise,the sales lady knew her!

  "She is a very sweet lady," she remarked, "but she is going through a rough patch right now and has to drive a long way to work. With gas prices so high,it sure isn't easy.” With excitement,we took the gift back to the grocery store and stood in line at the same cash register. When our time came we just handed her the gift. She knew immediately what we had done and was so thankful.

  I grew up poor,with a single mother and two sisters. We had no help from our dad,and I never dreamed as a little girl that I would be able to help others.

  At the age of seven I started taking violin lessons. I practised half an hour every day,went to lessons once a week,and occasionally played in a group concert. Like most kids,I always thought practising was boring. If my par?ents hadn't been there to make me practise,I probably would have put down my violin and never have picked it up again.

  I met Moira when I was 11 at an Irish music party. Moira hosted the par?ty that night,playing the violin,singing and dancing. She made sure that everyone in the room got involved and had a great time. I immediately fell in love with the music she played and the energy that she brought to it. Just a few days after that party,I took my first lesson with Moira,and I continued taking lessons with Moira throughout middle school.

  When I started playing the violin with Moira,playing music became something that I loved. She introduced me to so many types of music,from Irish to Old Time,to Cajun. Moira also taught me to play the guitar. Soon we started performing together and were shocked to discover that people actually wanted to hear us!When I began to play the violin,practising was something that I did at home in my living room,but with Moira's influence it quickly be?came something that I did everywhere. I played on street corners， at festivals,at the beach,at parties,at weddings,and late at night in my friends' kitchens.

  Moira took the music out of the classroom and brought it to life. Her pas-sion (激情) was not only for playing music,but also for sharing it. My time with Moira allowed me to grow both musically and personally. I have met so many special people and had so many invaluable experiences. Moira has proven to be the most important influence on my musical development,and also my invaluable friend.
