no,Brian.i never ate wild animals.but i guess they must taste more delicious.they are raised by nature.and nature is the greatest chef.i guess you must be good at cooking.so you are a good husband.my dad couldn't cook at all.when mum is not at home,he will buy some instant noodles,and cook this for me
it's very easy and convenient.or he will take me to restaurants.i will ask my dad to watch your vedio and learn some kitchen skill.as for me,i only need learning english.i have no gift on cooking.i ever tried and failed every time.
why not?we all like your vedios.they are more vivid and direct for us to learn something.i like this theme about thanksgiving turkey.i think the wild turkey must be smarter than the domestic one.it has feelings like human being.and strangely he is easily provoked.i analyse the reason.maybe he was envy of me because i was also beautiful ,just like what the peacock usually does.he treated me as a rival.hahahaha
sorry,Brian.i was mistaken.i mean what i saw is indeed a turkey.it looks the same with the picture.it's the part under its beak that can change its color,not the comb.can you tell me how to say it?
i feel i wouldn't like to eat turkey.it's too beautiful.i don't eat beautiful things.maybe i will raise one in the future as my pet.you know turkey is very rare in China,that means it's quite expensive.by now i only see it once.
Your English lesson on You Tube was great. I smiled often and I learned a lot! I was surprised about all your remote controls and the varity of glasses.
sir, i introduce a piece of music to you,the butterfly lovers or Liang Zhu.it's a little sad because there is a Chiese legand about the tragic romance behind it.
The legend of Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai is a beautiful, doleful, and moving love story .It begins with a beautiful, intelligent young woman named Zhu Yingtai , who is the only daughter of the wealthy noble Zhu family. After much effort, she convinced her father to let her disguise herself as a young man traveling to Hangzhou to study. During her journey, she encountered Liang Shanbo, a scholar . They felt like old friends at the first meeting. Therefore, they took vows of brotherhood .
For the three years in school, they shared the same room where there was only one bed and two quilts. Yingtai slowly fell in love with Shanbo. Shanbo was a bookworm and did not see any traces of female characteristics in Yingtai.
Time flew by quickly. Three years passed, and one day Yingtai received a letter from her father asking her to return home as quickly as possible. Yingtai had no alternative but to pack her belongings immediately and bid farewell. In Yingtai’s heart, she had decided that even if heaven and earth passed away, her love for Liang Shanbo would never change, and she wanted to be with him for all eternity. Hence, before her departure, Yingtai revealed her true identity to her headmaster's wife and requested the headmaster’s wife to hand her jade pendant as a betrothal gift to Shanbo.
Liang Shanbo, being Yingtai’s sworn brother, accompanied Yingtai for 18 miles to send her off. During the journey, Yingtai hinted to Shanbo that she was a girl. For example, she compared themselves to a pair of mandarin ducks, but Shanbo did not catch onto her hidden meaning and did not even have the slightest suspicion that she was a girl. Finally Yingtai thought of an idea: she told Shanbo that she would be a matchmaker and match make Shanbo with her sister. Before the two parted, Yingtai reminded Shanbo to pay a visit to her house so that he can propose a marriage to her "sister" (who was really herself). Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai reluctantly took leave of each other at the pavilion where they had first met.
When Shanbo arrived at Yingtai’s home, he discovered her true gender. They were devoted to and passionate about each other, and the lovers vowed that if they cannot live together, they will die together. The joy of the reunion of the two came to an end when Yingtai told Shanbo that her parents had forced her to marry Ma Wencai (馬文才, Mǎ Wéncái), a rich and spoiled gentleman.
Liang Shanbo was heartbroken. His health slowly deteriorated until he became seriously ill and later died in his office .
On the day Yingtai was to be married to Ma Wencai, whirlwinds prevented the wedding procession from escorting Yingtai beyond Shanbo’s tomb. Yingtai left the procession to pay her respects for Shanbo. Yingtai descended in bitter despair and begged the grave to open up. Suddenly there was a clap of thunder, and the tomb opened as Yingtai had wished. Without hesitation, Yingtai leapt into the grave to join her beloved Shanbo. Yingtai and Shanbo's spirits had turned into a pair of beautiful butterflies and emerged from the tomb, flying together among the flowers forever, never to be apart again.
i'm sorry that we failed to chat on msn.sometimes i saw your image is green but your state was away.besides i was a little busy these days so i spent little time online.
i will tell you a joke as compensation.i don't know if you heard it before.but even though you heard it,you should pretend that this is the first time you hear it.ok,sir?
Bring Me The Winner Once, a fellow went into a restaurant and ordered a two-pound lobster. "Waiter," he said when his meal was placed before him, "this lobster has only one claw." "I'm sorry, sir," the waiter replied. "but sometimes the lobsters fight in the tank." "In that case," the diner said, "bring me the winner."
this morning i took a walk on the squre where there was a Chrysanthemum exhibition.the sunshine was so bright that i couldn't open my eyes . i stopped at a old man who was absorded in drawing.i approached to see what he was drawing when he looked up and asked with smile,"isn't it romantic?"it's a picture about a girl sitting on the grass with a boy lying on his lap.i smiled back and nodded my head.then another old man came up couriously,gazed at the picture and said,"you made it inverse,it should be the girl is lying in the bosom of the boy."the other laughed ,"it's excess of yin and shortage of yang."
yin stands for femal and yang male.in our university there are more girls than boys.
Those simple words confuse me. For I thought I knew what they meant. Until I lost and won some, My love today is for rent. I love you. Those simple words I know so well. I wish for you to know. That just liking someone is so different. So I will say it real slow. I L O V E Y O U Those are the words of a million feelings. My hopes and dreams and joys. Little girls writing love letters. Chasing after boys. I…L…O…V…E…Y…O…U Those are the words that I say to you. I whisper them to your heart. You turn and look back at me. I loved you from the start.
sir,how are you?i miss you so much.these days we are busy learning Tai chi quan.you know it's kinda like yoga.evey morning we have to get up at 6:00 to practise Tai chi quan.as we do this we can enjoy the fresh air,warm morning sunshine and birds' singing.it's so cool.and at last there will be a contest among all the schools in our university.it will be very exciting.

and speaking?? i think it's worst xD
i don't know i only can be fluent if i can make preparations for a few days... when i try to speak my mind kept thinking about other else... i can't focus or concentrate on other people whenever they were talking to me... i don't think i have A.D.D syndrome anyway bwahahha... about writing...i guess i need to pay attention on that too :D
well hope u can share me some tips to improve my english :D
tata
last night i lay in bed,thinking for a long time.i thought out a lot of names,but i cut them all in the end.i think i'd better call you "sir".it sounds cool and respectful,not that serious.i like call men at your age sir.my mom is a crazy woman.she prefers me calling her name to mom.she said calling her name made her feel she's still young.so at home i call her name.but in front of others i still call her mom.in china,name is always made up of two or three words,sometimes even four.like my Chinese name 雒艳 is made up of two words.my father's name 雒保山 is made up of three words.雒 is our family name.we usually put it in front,which is the opposite to yours.family name is usually one word,like 张，王，李，赵。there are also some hyphenated name,like 欧阳，司马。four-word name sounds pretty cool.there are many characters in custume movies whose name is four-word name.
nice to meet you,mapleleaf man.you are so friendly and helpful.i like your vedios and blogs.they are really awesome.i like your lifestyle.you seem to be an optimist .you enjoy life,help others and work happily.you have a young heart.i like you and adore you.hope we can be good friends.
