Goodbye in advance.

We did the dubbing thing on the oral English class the other day.We were offered some scenes of Microcosmos.The whole class was divided into couple of groups.Our team worked out okay and all the rehearsal had really paid off.Since it was dubbing,we guys had to make up all the lines which were supposed to matched the motions of those little creatures.Therefore,it was rather a chance for everyone to show what they got.

After going through all the groups,there was plus size question mark arising on my head.Was it a collection for all the four-letter words?"Damn","shit","b**ch","a**hole","bastard"--good thing that there was no f*ck but I was shocked that my classmates could be so "urban".Maybe they thought those were the real English or stylish expressions,however I didn't feel comfortable.I didn't see our American English instructor's face,but I knew I was flushed by those words and I had to laugh off my embarrassment.

I believe you would associate what I said above with the TV series.and say "Darn tootin' those TV series."Do not feel confussed that "why Chinese people are able to watch practically all of the American TV" because Chinese are still so desperately studying English + there're a immense number of Chinese living abroad + Chinese are self-giving + Netizen in China is a gigantic group = many websites which focus on importing foreign TV series sprung out in a row.They provide with both Chinese and English subtitle which is a good way to learn English efficiently. Below is the screenshots.("How I Met Your Mother".YYeTs version)


Well,I don't want to over-generalize anything but why is the American media fond of seting up some erratic mother or father figure.Apart from Marge on THE SIMPSONS,I haven't seen any mother that  accords with my definition of mother.Take FRIENDS as an example,Monica and Ross's parents,Rachel's mother,Chandler's parents,plus Charlie's mother on TWO AND A HALF MEN--they're all kinky at different levels.

Speaking of mother,it'll be Mother's Day this Sunday but I won't be home but in Guangzhou instead.Getting a friend to join you on your latest plan can be difficult sometimes,so I'll go to Guangzhou alone and come back on Sunday.And before that,I'll stay in one of my friends dorm room for three nights which is agreeable and economical for me.

I'm quite looking forward to it because friends and former classmates who now study in uni in Guangzhou have kept asking me to visit them and their universities since the freshman year.Yet I was procastnating it all along for such and such things.I know the swine flu is top-line for now but I don't wanna postpone the trip any more.And I can't see myself getting in that kind of trouble,hopefully.

Below is some farewell pictures.^^Jin sent me a incredibly adorable gift on not-a-festival day.It's a pair of leopard-ears barrette which is totally taken a fancy by me.

uninteresting day,uninteresting post

There's old balladry song named "Childhood" in China,singing "ain't realise the the homework is barely done until bedtime;ain't realise the books are hardly hit until sitting an exam".I am touched by this song all along.I don't think I did a good job on the exams in the past few days,but it's alright.

Last night,I got a message from my high school classmate.He told me that everytime he greeted me before exams he got good marks,so he decided to do that again.LOL,that's the most special compliment I've ever heard.Since I never dream of scholarship or something like that,I'd be glad if I'm capable to share my good luck with others.

I always watched a TV program named "ART ATTACK" when I was in primary school.And now,from time to time,I still get some chances to catch it up on TV.But I found that the host Neil looks much older.Good thing that his ideas are still fresh and artwork still fabulous.Everytime I watch it,I keep the little girl's state of mind--curious,admire,itching to try which never put in practice.I hope that this program will continue to play until the time I tell my kid "See that man painting?I loved his artwork when I was your age".

The other day,I finally finished "F.R.I.E.N.D.S" which is a extraordinarily popular ten-season American tvshow.It sounds like a long journey,doesn't it.Episodes in the latter seasons are not that hilarious but there're still catchy and upbeat.Some fellows ask me what what is "F.R.I.E.N.D.S" trying to accomplish as poping for 10 years.All I could tell is this tvshow is NOT ABOUT FRIENDS.

I barely used my English name since I got one.English names are just adopted names to Chinese,at least for me.I don't feel like be called by that,it often gives foreign friends a headache though.Sarina calls me "hey" instead while LUI calls "teacher".Somehow I prefer them rather than some weird English names.Sounds like a freak huh.

Speaking of freak,that Indian guy who keeps flirting and teasing me is so gonna be the top of the "freaky-creepy chart" if there's one.Okay,I have to confess that I wanna be in a relationship but it doesn't mean I would be that desperate.Actually I don't mean that I don't appreciate sluty expressions whatsoever,but for me,nurtured stuff is a must,then passionate one.Well,thanks to him,I find my tremendous psychic abilities, and strong instincts for distinguishing truth from fiction.lol

Almost forgot it's Teachers' Day today.Best wishes to all my honourable teachers.
