I was like a bit partied out there last night and mr K gave me the word very crisply Embarassed

and scrubbed out my posts

wow I didnt know you guys were so ... I dunno ... shy or something Embarassed

yeh, you are right Roger its a community college
Waddya reckon - all go or what?

Sometimes you write stuff which I dont undersrand so I guess that is French is something.
Are you French or did you learn that at school.

If you are French then this poopsicola guy need some 10-4 but not me because I am a proper English speaker.

I have been checking out the weather maps and it seems these places woould be the deal for me

Hainain isalnd (any uni.s there ? may be too small)
Gaungdong - and Guangxai and Sichaun - i think the rest is too cold

I need some night life too so thinking about a big city with plenty of action stations Very Happy

I wrote to English First and they reckon its OK for me but I read on this site how is a slave farm and that not my scene at all Shocked

OH NO Fellas

I think a univeristy for me with plentyof spare time for social would be crisp Idea

You guys are awesome - so much 10-4 here

Waddya reckon?

Where should I head?

BUT NOW
I gotta hit the water and get crisp

hey Hunan Foreign dude

thanks for your friendly message. You are the man.

And if you can't read a sorry and you have to make mileage out of that - well. lucky for me I am not gonna go to Hunan anyway

I love your standards - telling me how to go about living my life and then you post this stuff which no one but the super-heroes can understand

wot gives?

How does that help anyone??

really, there is plenty of useful 10-4 here without using code

Seems to be Guangdong is the place and
Shenzhen or Gaungzou seems like the cities to be.
Crisp.

You have a good day too and keep spreading the word of tolerance and acceptance

Lol! I don't want to turn this into a dialect debate, but I have to say that I understand where the I-don't-get-this-guy's-lingo attitude is coming from.

Please remember that no matter how everyday your idioms are in your local community (10-4, wot, crisp, the deal, action station, etc.), the rest of the world may be unfamiliar with them, and when in China you'll have to be adaptive for Chinese students, as well as for other foreigners, most of whom don't hail from down under. Try thinking in an international business frame of mind.

To Mlle. Cola, don't worry too much. If you can speak English better than the average Chinese English teacher, you have something valuable to offer. The only way you would be harming anyone's education is if you're being hired instead of someone who's better qualified. At many schools, it comes down to a choice between having a foreign teacher and not having a foreign teacher, rather than choosing between multiple foreign candidates. (And I don't want to turn this into a repeat of the "teacher shortage?" thread either, as that's already been done recently enough. I'm just stating my opinion here.) Bonne chance!

Hello Mysterious Mark

Oh, yeh, i get your drift very crisply!

I have been reading some books from the library and I reckon I just gotta keep it simple with no street slang right?

I will speak to my counsellor too and may be they can help me with some of the juice

At my college we had to do presentations to our class and I learnt to speak more slowly and more academic way - but I'm just banging this stuff out on a net bar or the library at college (where it free.)
so I hurry -

I am waiting on some e-mails I sent to Hainain and Guandong
At college, even if we finish study then we have the work place counsellors to help us with stuff like the C v

I really appreciate your advice marko - thanx - that is mega
CRISP Wink

You know I did not know about not English speakers teaching English so for that pop-cola dude or dudette, they will be OK, right?
May be they need some more education though

How many dudes are in China like this ?

Why dont they teach the other language but not English?
Like if that was my language, French, that is wot I would teach, right

why do the other language when that is not their first language
Strange to me
