15, a Beijing student. "Her songs give me courage." 
    Eventually, the star was tired because she had worked so hard. She stopped singing for a while and had
a one-year holiday to travel. "I won't give up singing. I just want a rest and to try something new. I hope to
make better music when I come back," Sun said then.
