“I always dreamed of having a college education and now I'm getting one！” she told me. After class we shared a chocolate milk shake. We became instant friends. Every day for the next three months, we would leave class together and talk non－stop. Over the course of the year, Rose became a campus star and she easily made friends wherever she went.

　　At the end of the term we invited Rose to speak at our football banquet (宴会). I'll never forget what she taught us. She cleared her throat and began, “ We do not stop playing because we are old; we grow old because we stop playing. If you are 19 years old and lie in bed for one full year and don't do one productive thing, you will turn 20 years old. If I am 87 years old and stay in bed for a year and never do anything, I will turn 88. Anybody can grow older. That doesn't take any talent or ability. The idea is to grow up by always finding the opportunity in change and have no regrets.”

　　At the year's end Rose finished the college degree. One week after graduation, Rose died peacefully in her sleep. Over 2,000 college students attended her funeral in honor of the wonderful woman who taught by example that it's never too late to be all you can possibly be.

　　1. Where did the author first get to know Rose?
