My old IDs on ITALKI :) (Yeah, I am bored.) Hello everyone! How are you? Hope all well. :) I didn't write any entry since my last entry on May 22. I was disappointed sometimes because of the new version of italki, it seemed that my friends couldn't even see my updates, no one corrects them, and no comment. But yeah, I should not blame the new version of italki, the cause of my non-correction and non-comment entries is I wrote boring things. Yeah, sorry, I am a bored person, haha. Today I am so bored, and remember that I've signed up on italki for 3 times. I was so curious about my home pages of my old IDs, so I just searched VICTORIA, rolled down the page for many times, and then found out a truth, there are hundreds of Victoria on italki (Lol, yeah, I am bored.) Finally I found my last 2 IDs. I've signed up in 2008 and 2010, but since I didn't want to talk to people at that time, so I just paid no attention on italki, and gradually I didn't remember the previous 2 registered emails, so I just left them alone. These are my old pages and old faces, lol. http://www.italki.com/user/283453#activity http://www.italki.com/user/625700#activity I am so glad that I've made so many good friends here, they've helped me a lot, and they are important. ^_^ I've changed a lot, and sometimes is busy absorbing their good advises, hehe. I deeply realize that my English is getting rusted again. Have a nice day! :)

Culture shock about Shantou (Swatow) custom. Does anyone here know Shantou (Swatow)? Which is a city in the east Guangdong. I just found out a huge culture shock after hearing my colleagues' talk, well, at least it's huge for me. By the way, my home town is Foshan, also is a city in the middle of Guangdong. One of my colleagues' (male) father was died on April 30, 2012, but he got married on May 3, 2012. I was shocked to know that, and asked why, a girl from Shantou answered because they have a custom that if there is someone died in the family, the other families can get married within 8 days after the date of death, or else they can only do that after 3 years. So my colleague (male) just followed the custom, and got married 3 days later after his father's death. Even the girl from Shantou, when her mother died 3 years ago, her uncles and aunts asked her if she had any boyfriend at that time, they told her she can get married within 8 days if she wanted. But I want to say 'uncles and aunts, she was only 17 when her mother died, you wanted her to get married at 17? She was still a child at that time.' But yeah, it's non of my business. Oh my God!! I was so shocked, how could they still be happy during the wedding? As for my culture, I think that was really not respectful to the people who died. But that's their culture, maybe is decades of history or more, we have to show our respects to them. There was a similar wedding happened around me, it was my high school classmate's (female) wedding. Her grandfather died 2 or 3 days before her wedding day, but since they had already prepared all the things for the wedding, so they just held the wedding and didn't postpone. She planned to hold the ceremony at home, but decided to hold in one hotel instead. I saw her photos which were took on her wedding day, she smiled very happily. I was kind of angry, how could she be so happy in that situation? I can't understand until now, but it's non of my business, as long as she thought that was worth it. Speaking of this, for your information, in my hometown, if someone died, his/her families can't get into other family's house or attend any wedding until a month later, and can't hold any wedding ceremony until 100 days later. Those are all I know. It's not about sadness, sometimes I am just curious about these things. If there's any different custom in the big China or around the big world, welcome and give me culture shock! Hehe... Have a nice day! :)

Pleas help! What does it mean? I think it's in Russian. Thanks! The picture is part of the information which is printed on a facial mask foil bag. I wonder what does it mean, can somebody help, please? Thanks in advance. And I've checked on Internet that there is a unit of weight 'kr', does it with the same use of 'kg' in Russian? So does 'r' = 'g'? Please kindly check the last line in the picture, I guess 45r and 6r are the weight of the ingredients of the facial mask, am I right? Please help, thanks.

I want to go bungee jumping. I learned about bungee jumping mostly is from Korean TV programs. Despite of the funny things, everyone who jumped from that high platform was so brave and so encouraging, even those people who stood at the edge of the platform and failed to jump were also so inspiring, at least they faced their fears, they just couldn’t win their bottom lines. I really want to try. Sometimes I dreamt about standing at a high place, and afraid of looking down, I think I have fears of heights, but the feeling is not so strong. Even when I go to the bungee jump place, and fail to jump, at least I can feel the great fear of heights, and maybe I can be stronger after that, I think that can help me to grow up. It’s better if I cry, hehe… I think that can help me to release my fears in all aspects of my life. I posted a post on my Qzone about bungee jumping. One of my High School classmates told me he used to be a very naughty boy when he was younger, and was afraid of nothing, but now he can’t even watch people jumping. He said he’s now too old to suffer the bungee jumping, he’s too afraid of hearing people crying while jumping down, and imagine he’s the one who’s jumping from that high platform, he will feel like that’s the final seconds for him to say goodbye to the world. I told him maybe after he experience the dying moments of life, he will be not afraid of it anymore. That’s the long-term peaceful life made him afraid. I think my point make sense. Lol… Sometimes it’s kind of struggle to post my thought in public, because many people can see it, even those people who I am not familiar with. Once I posted the bungee jump topic on my Qzone, one of my Middle School classmates said he wants to go with me, sigh!! I only want to go with my best friends, and I don’t want to go out with any male friend at the moment. You can say I am a mean person, and I will not deny it, because I don’t know how to deal with someone who I am not familiar with, and I am kind of cool to the people if I think they are not interesting. In order not to hurt his feeling, I have to say no to him, sorry! I need to do that before I am too old, sometimes your health is not as young as your mind, hehe, and your mind will be weaken as time goes by. I think I have to kidnap some friends to go with me before I shelve this feeling. :P Have nice days everybody! :)

How to say "花心" in English? Play girl? Please help! I know for boys they will be called "play boy", how about girls? "花心" is like a person who's unfaithful to a relationship. But in my mind, it's not only in relationships. For example, if I saw a good looking guy, I will say "wow... he's so handsome, I love him! " And the other day I see a cute boy, I am totally into him and I say "Oh my God, he's so cute, I wish I was his girlfriend. " And the other day of the other day I see a tall strong man with a sweet smile, then I say "Oh, he melt my heart! " It's a situation that a girl is changing so fast, of course my examples are exactly girls' dreams, lol... So shall we call her a "play girl"? If not, how can we call her? I appreciate for your kind help, thank you in advance! Have a nice day! :)

También hay un espejo y una computadora. El dormitorio más grande es de mi madre y padre, el otro es de mi hermano. Mi casa está cerca de estación de autobús. Es muy conveniente. Y hay un parque junto al edificio. So much for today! ¡Que tenga un buen día! :)

Write something to kill my mental laziness :P (Apr. 1, 2013) Hi everyone! How have you been? Long time no see. I didn't write any entry since Jan. 13, and didn't do many corrections, it's been more than 2 months, I know I am mentally lazy. :P In that time, I seldom went out except to visit my grandmother and to my friend's wedding, and to buy something needed. I didn't want to go out alone, because it's so stupid to hang around alone, so I just went to the shop and bought what I want, and headed home. I spent most of my time on watching English TV series and movies, and I am kind of glad that I can understand most of them. But I found my vocabulary is so limited, once I met a new word, I just stuck right there, and yeah it's a good chance for me to learn new words, good for me though I can't remember all of them. These days I've thought too many things, and I realized I've been so mean to my friends. Here are some examples. I never call or send any greeting to my friends first, they might do the same thing to me, that's why we are estranged from each other, and my friends are become less and less. Sometimes when I talk to a friend, I just speak my mind straightway and don't give time for her/he to speak theirs, that makes the atmosphere weird. I only can realize I should put myself in their positions to think before I talk afterwards. I know I've hurt them and I am so sorry. And a few days ago, one of my best friend told me I am very important to her, if I broke off the relations with her, then she will die. I told her I will never break with her and asked her why she said so, she said if I broke with her, then there's no one to talk to, she've told me everything about her, I am so important to her, and she asked me not to abandon her. The first thing after I heard that was not touched, but kind of surprised. I never know I am this important to any friend of mine, and I regreted didn't tell her everything even she's one of my best friends. After some seconds, I told her she's also important to me but don't be touched by what I've done for her, she'd made me embarrassed, and I've never told someone this, because sometimes good feelings are told by someone's heart, but not by their mouth. I told her that with a little complain, but she simled at me. I know she got me. But still, I am too mean to her. Sorry! OMG, I've written this entry for over 2 hours. I wrote and deleted, deleted then wrote, just felt so rusty. I believe I need to write more, this is a lesson. :P Thanks for reading! Have a nice day! :)

A primary classmates gathering. (Jan. 23rd, 2013) Just know that there will be a primary classmates gathering during the Spring Festival holiday about an hour ago. God bless us! It's a good news to reunion all the classmates, but also bad news for me. I already know what will the topics be. The sons, the daughters, the husbands, the wives, the jobs, and the rings. lol... I don't have any of them, but I can show them my earings. haha...Did I mention any boyfriend or girlfriend? No. Yes, there's no need to talk about any boyfriend or girlfriend, because they are all married, but me. There were some unmarried classmates 2 years ago, but not anymore, they all leave me behind, hehehe... Many things had happened in 2 years, but I am just as usual. I can figure out what they will ask me, it probably is why I still do not get married. I probably will answer God did not send me the guidance. God bless me! My strategy will be smile all the time that day. Chinese people always use a simple smile to solve problem, good things, bad things, all in a smile. I should answer their questions with my symbolic sweet smile, if it doesn't work well, I will wink while smiling. lol... I already can imagine I will be a very good listener that day. My classmates are now chatting on QQ, they talked about their sons and daughters. One of my classmates said her son now is 7 months old, she's finally finished her mission. As I know, she already has 2 daughters, and her last mission was a son!? I am so angry to know that, to give birth to a baby is a mission!? And the biggest mission is to have a son!? I always know how ridiculous the old ideas had made Chinese people to be, but just can't hold my anger. Of course I won't tell any of my classmates what I feel, I just write to practice my English writing, it's always my best excuse. lol... Have a nice day! :)
