Try to make sentences in English Part five (Dragon Boat Festival) Hey guys if you find anything I can improve in my English, please help me about it. thx!! Taiwan is a small island below Japan and besides China. Taiwan was ruled by a lot of countries, and one of them is China. Due to that, some of Taiwan traditional festivals derive from China. Dragon Boat Festival(端午節) is also from China. I don’t know does everyone have the same Dragon Boat Festival customs. But my grandmother will prepare a lots of Zongzi (粽子) for us. First, my grandmother cooks the bamboo leaves to keep them clean. Second, she shapes the leaves to put different stuffing in the, like sticky rice, a complete salted egg yolk, mushrooms, stewed pork, and small shrimps. The ingredients I mentioned above are just the basic ones, but you can change it if you want. And then, she wraps them with bamboo leaves, and steams them. So you can feel the.bamboo smell when you have Zongzi. By the way, my grandmother recommends have her Zongzi with sweet chili sauce. Even if Taiwan is a small island, we still have tons of ways about how to make nice Zongzi. We will often have two ways: Northern Zongzi(北部粽) and Eastern Zongzi(南部粽). We still have a lots of ways to celebrate Dragon Boat Festival, and I just mention one of them. If you have the chance to come to Taiwan in Dragon Boat Festival, and you are willing to try new stuffs, and I will highly recommend you to try some!

Try to make sentences in English Part four Hey guys if you find anything I can improve in my English, please help me about it. thx!! 1. slacker (n.) I found I couldn’t finish my job because my client can’t give me the right information and keep interrupting me by asking brainless questions. I just want to close my laptop, be a slacker, and slap the door. But I still don't do that. The reality is I need this job to pay my student loan first. 2. shop around (phr.) What a steal! penny pincher (n.) Recently, I have been totally obsessed with boxed toys from Re-ment, a Japanese company. Before I bought them, I will shop around to find the cheapest price but the highest quality. Sometimes I can’t help myself to say “What a steal!” when I receive the packages. My friends say that I am a penny pincher. But I think the real penny pincher will know when to stop spending money. 3. stand one's ground (phr.) to butter up someone do a bang-up job In this program, I stood myself,s ground, but the result proved I was the wrong one eventually. The new colleague tries to butter up everyone, but I think that he should make the reason why he thinks everyone is kind reasonable. Maybe he is trying to make friends than create enemies. No matter what he is really doing a bang-up job. He knows what to do and how to do his job properly.

Try to make sentences in English Part three Hey guys If you find anything can be better, please help me to fix it. Thanks a lot!!! 1. social butterfly 2. pity seeker 3. outcast I saw some girls act like social butterflies. They posted pictures that they went to parties and became pity seekers when their nails cracked. When they tried to talk to something I was interested in, like games and TV series, I could feel they were not really focused. (Hmm...And why you asked?) I would rather be an outcast than be a fake friend with them. >>Just try to make some sentences, please don’t take too serious about it!! 4. crush One of my best friend told me she had crush on someone. 5. third wheel I was so glad that one of my best friends was dating a nice person. The worst part was that she wanted to date with her partner and she still wanted to have dinner with me. So I became a third wheel between one of my best friend and her partners… 6. side chick One day, she called me, she found her partner cheated on her, and the side chick even called my best friend to give up this relationship. WHAT?! I just want to say: Hey my friend, no matter what you decide, I will always be on your side.
