（attract） by the unique way of interacting with people as well as the culture that gave birth to the phenomenon，many foreigners say competing with friends to grab red packets in （64）a WeChat group can be a lot of fun．
Mattias Klement，27，a Swede （65）who has been living in China for years，said more foreigners have started to take part in this （66）activity（ active） because of the popularity of WeChat wallet．
"I think it is （67）mainly （main） because more and more places now allow paying with WeChat．It's also fun to just involve （68）yourself（you） in the culture of it，"said Klement．Two years ago，when some friends （69）sent（send） him 5.20 or 8.88 Yuan red packets，he had no clue about the hidden meanings．Now，he is not only quite familiar with them but also has been used to sending some．
"It's nice to be able to say‘I love you'with 5.20 Yuan，I guess，"he said，laughing．"I also remember

20．It's 5：00 in the morning when the alarm rings in my ears．I roll out of bed and walk blindly through the dark into the bathroom．I turn on the light and put on my glasses．The house is still as I walk downstairs while my husband and three kids sleep peacefully．Usually I go for a long run，but today I choose my favorite exercise DVD insanity．Sweat pours down my face and into my eyes．My heart races as I face my body to finish each movement．As I near the end of the exercise，I feel extremely tired，but a smile is of my face．It's a smile because the DVD is over，but a smile of success from pushing my body to its extreme limit．
Some people enjoy shopping，smoking，food，work，or even chocolate．But I need exercise to get through each day．Some shake heads when they see me run through the town．Others get hurt when I refuse to try just one bite of their grandmother's chocolate cake．They raise their eyebrows，surprised by my"no thank you，"or by my choice to have a salad．Over the years，I have learned it's okay to just say"no．"I shouldn't feel sorry for refusing food that I don't want to eat．
So what drives me to roll out of bed at 5：00a．m．？What gives me the reason to just say to ice cream？Commitment．A commitment to change my life with a way that reduces daily anxiety，increases self-confidence and energy，extends life and above all improves my body shape．This is the point where a smile appears on my face as I look at myself in the mirror or try on my favorite pair of jeans that now fit just right．It's through commitment and sweat that I can make a difference within myself inside and out．
