low efficiency

I really want to find someone who can have exchange conversation with me in english and chinese for half a hour each day. But I just cannot get any response after sent soooo many hello messages. It is 2.18 am now. Maybe I should sleep first and pay money for asking help from online teachers.

你好.

你好. 我最近开始研究中国. 我喜欢学习了解中国. 感谢您的帮助.

I think the difference between 学习 and 了解 is a little like study and learn. study a subject and learn something(like a kind of sport), so it's just a language habit. they are synonym.

and the degree of 了解 is less than study(学习). we can just know little about a object, and we say we know about it(了解）, however, 学习 usually say we know lot about it, and we need to try to understand it!

I wish i could have some conversation with you. thx.

前言 (Introduction)

大家好，我叫科林(Colin)。 我在美国是一个数学专业的研究生。我已经五个月学习汉语五个月了。我知道写九百个左右个中文字（怎么写），但是我说的汉语的口语能力不是很棒。我想增强我的汉语，也叫交一些个朋友。

再见，
科林

I try my best to devise the little article without delete any part or meaning. you know we usually just don't know how to put all the words in a right sequence, and use the right words. so...

by the way, i am such a good study resource with patience and knowledge(haha), and ask you to skype me. but you said, "oh i have many chinese friends who i can talk with", then you just wrote this.....how should i though?  you must discriminate me...               ~~~~(>_<)~~~~ 

just a joke~ don't be serious .

我们相互改吧。。。没人改我的。。。

speak of cooking

When I was at college,my dormitory is small,and we dont have any kitchen,so we can only go to the college canteen.but the food in there is disgusting. (时态是否都用过去式比较好?)
so（therefore如果避免重复） girls in my dormitory bought an automatic rice cooker,it is too small to cook many food.
but we are very greedy.
Once,we wanted to make the mutton soup,but the automatic rice cooker is low input power,it cooks slowly.
（youknowwhat）we cooked 3 hours!!!
we almost died (because）of starvation.

挺好吧。。。多用连词！时态都用过去比较安全。不知道是不是toeflspeaking的话题 时间控制到时类似于托福.自己感觉加了黑色后顺一点点，但是我英语差 勿喷。。。
