It is 19:04p.m..Due to the time differences, I find it difficult to communicate with those who are  in other distant countries.The feeling that we are living in permanent jet lag gets stronger on line.

Here's a piece of interesting story I found in the Internet in the day. And I translate it in English and share with you all.

Fish said: I never close my eyes just to see you every day.

The water said that every day I was always on the run,streaming across mountains ceaselessly just want to stay by your side.

Pan said: Damn it!Why you still have so many utter nonsense talks while being cooked whole.

Last but not least, I wonder how many times are you check your mail box?

thanks for your reply~Frankly speaking, my oral English, especially my pronounciation, is better than my writing. I was aware of so many chinese here as I loged in. So it is natural and expected. I just failed my TEM4 and was depressed.

For me, I was working hard from my childhood, and I was trying to make my handwriting beautiful, even though I was a lazy boy, and our teachers don't care about it. As a result, now I had a good (not great) handwriting unlike other students in my class. Can you believe that sometimes they can't even read their own handwriting!!

By the way, there's a big difference between having a beautiful handwriting and being a calligrapher. Calligraphy art needs more than having a beautiful handwriting.

That's a good try! Frankly speaking, it doesn't amaze me a lot that Chinese people created this kind of thing. You see, when I was in primary school, my teachers were always cavilling at ours handwriting,not only chinese but also English. AS we grow up, we are astonished by some American's English handwriting. Why could they write their mother tone like scribbles? My foreign teacher is also confused why chinese people put their heart and soul in beautiful handwriting?But nobody can explain the furor, even the Chinese.

Actually I'm not the one who made it .. the website is for a chinese man.
I'm not that good in making calligraphies, but I'm planning to study it.

I just want to say it is really really like an artwork. How long have you studied it? I believe if you succeed, you will earn a lot of money in China as a great artist like Picasso !!!!Haha`

I have heard that Arabic calligraphy is considered as a true art form,but I had never seen it before. So the first time when I read Arabic, I felt a little strange and interesting. Do the Arabs wear robes all year around?It seems that we cannot get the notification of others' replies or comments in this website. :)How could you receive my replies?

First of all, google translator is not good in pronouncing Arabic words. Maybe because of that you felt a little bit weird about the Arabic pronounciation. I think you're the one who said that those translators are limited :D
Also Arabic letters don't look messy if you just know them well, but they look messy sometimes because of the font. The font you used in your comment was not beautiful, even for Arabians, it will be ugly in their opinion.
By the way, the Arabic letters were not in the same look as now, they were a little bit different (just a little bit)  and they were improved almost 1400 years ago.

Anyway, have you ever seen some Arabic Calligraphy?
