Nice to meet you ,too.
English is not easy to learning. But in my opinion, any language is only a tool. People use this tool to communicate with each other. No matter how the tool you master, the consequence is the same, that is, to know what others are thinking about, to understand why they do something in that way.
I think it is helpful to know people in the world.


If I travel abroad, I need not pay money for interpreter.
I wish I could write a book in the future.


By the way , do you learn these languages?

I am only proficient with English and chinese . Actually , i have lots of chances to learn German, French , Korean or Japanese ,but I dont wanna learn , because its not easy to master one language fully, it needs at least 4 years to master it . I think I'd better work hard on English and make it as proficient as my chinese , haha
take care ! by eby e , my MSN : [email protected]

I am very busy recently.
How r u , guys?
When I heard of the news that a Chinese lady was beated by the American policeman .Because she is aTianjin girl.And me too.Her chinese home is in Hongqiao District , in Tianjin. I also lived there for more than 6 years.
I am so surprised by the horrible accident which was hapened in the USA.
Chinese people are so weak in the foreign country.
How do you feel?

Yeah! I heard that news ,but I think there is a bit misunderstanding and accident that happen at the same time . Did you read the whloe story ? its said that the officer, he mistakenly believed Chinese business woman was involved in an illegal drug deal. In a written statement, he said he grabbed a Chinese woman and two others ran when he asked them to come into the inspection station, and sprayed her with pepper spray when she swung her arms at him.

I think if the Chinese business woman know how to speak English , she can explain and this thing maybe not occur. Furthermore, we have to admit that a few police or officer are bad and rude towards suspectors and they should pay for their wrongdoing . Personally speaking , I dont think there is prejudice or racial discrimination within it. Anyway, both American and Chinese dont wanna hope this thing happens.

Hace a nice day and dont see the things on surface.

I just feel that she's so weak. What Chinese government do is biterly criticizing this behavior on newspaper.
How are you?Are you going to England?
My best friend has returned from there to Beijing for one month. She told me that London is a great city to study. Which city are you in there?
Take care about yourself.

In school time I also wanted to learn Japanese. But I gave up later because the English had costed me lots of time and I still canot speak English well. I want to learn more foreign languages, but I cannot learn them well in limited time.
You had better learn Englsih well, and then go to learn other languages.
