Amy's notebook entry: Feb 08, 2011 -- It's the time to start. Hey, how are you doing? Since coming back from New Jersey, I've been working at a logistic company for one year. Hardly can use any English. What a shame! So I'm thinking why not make full use of the internet to help me maintain my English. So I begin to do stuff online, like read English news, chat with friends who can speak better English, write English emails to potential foreign clients, listen to English radios, watch English movies and TV shows, practise thinking in English way... But still, I feel this is not enough for me. I don't want to speak any Chinglish; I want to learn from the natives. I don't want to know a country by memorizing; I want to feel the cultural differences. I don't want to hire someone just for learning; I want a friend who can tell me interesting stuff, maybe share life experience sometimes... And that's the reason why I sign in here. Please help me reach my goals. Thanks a lot. Of course I'm a good and patient Chinese partner if you are interested in learning Mandarine. Have a great day! Amy
