After years of study (and lots of blood, sweat and tears), I am now an advanced speaker of Mandarin. No longer a full time student of Mandarin, I don't have the time of enthusiasm to study like I used to. Despite this, I try to read in Chinese in my spare time, and occasionally come back here to share thoughts on what's I've read. I'm sure I'll want to improve my basic Cantonese in future, but that's not a priority just now. 學了好幾年中文之後（當然也包括花了不少心血），我的中文終於達到了高級水準。由於我再也不是一名全職的外語學生，如今我便不像以往擁有那麼多時間和精力可花在學習普通話上了。雖說如此，空暇之時我喜歡閱讀中文書，並且偶爾我會再度前來此處與大家一起分享我對最近讀過的書的感想。未來，我想自己總會想要提高我較低的廣東話水平，不過此時此刻那對我而言就不為要事。
