    What an epic song!

    Lately, I have been addicted to a song named Star Sky by Two Steps From Hell. Its melody is so charming that I can't get rid of playing it again and again  it out of my head.

    It was last Sunday morning. I was on in my room, enjoying my weekend with a cup of coffee, and surfing the Internet. Just by chance, I found a short video on Youtube about a Middle-earth battle near the Lonely Mountain, known as the Battle of Five Armies, in which the Dwarves, Elves and the Men of Dale fought against the Orcs and Wargs. When the video was first played, immediately I was absorbed by its background music - what a beautiful melody! The song made my day and I kept listening to it the whole morning.

    I don't know what the song is really about, but listening to the song, especially the chorus, makes me think of a warrior who is being torn between his honor to serve his king, his lands and the true love of his life - something reminds me of Within Temptation with Hand of Sorrow. Looking at his own reflection in the mirror, he (the "I" in the lyrics?) wants to escape from being the man (the "you" in the lyrics?) of love and care, however it seems impossible as that man is a part of him, and his heart is torn apart.

    "...Burn the page for me
    I cannot erase the time of sleep
    I cannot be loved so set me free
    I cannot deliver your love
    or caress your soul
    so turn that page for me
    I cannot embrace the touch that you give
    I cannot find solace in your words
    I cannot deliver you your love
    and caress your soul..."

    Great work!

    Mes vacances à Vancouver (corrigez svp s'il y a des erreurs) Je viens de retourner de Vancouver, Canada. Il y a un an j'y ai habité. J'y étais pendant 3 ans avec mon copain. Maintenant j'habite à Boston aux E.U. Mais, mon copain et mes amis m'ont manqué alors j'ai décidé de les vister. Je suis part le 24 Octobre et j'y ai resté 2 semaines. Vancouver est la ville la plus peuplée de la province de la Colombie-Britannique. C'est une vraie métropole. Il y a beaucoup de restaurants chinois, japonais, thaïlandais, etc... Alors, j'ai mangé beaucoup! C'était délicieux! Malheureusement, il m'a fallu retourner au travail demain. Tant pis. J'ai besoin un peu plus d'argent après mes vacances, mais je suis heureux d'y aller pour quelques jours.

    'Similar' is close but "in line with" has this extra meaning. As in, for something to happen, this thing would need to happen first. So, to avoid dangerous levels of climate change, people would need to switch to a plant based diet first. Or, put another way: I need to buy books. In line with that fact, I will need money to buy them.

    Les genres des noms Ma langue maternelle est anglais. Alors ce concept de "genre" des mots (des noms, des adjectifs, des articles...) est ce un peu difficile pour moi d'apprendre and surtout d'utiliser correctement. Pour des mots comme "femme," ou "garçon," c'est simple oui. Mais d'autres mots abstraits me confondent toujours! Particulièrement, car j'ai étudié l'espagnol dans l'école secondaire, et la russe dans l'université, je reconnais le fait que le genre ce n'est pas toujours difficile. Si je me rappelle correctement, les noms qui terminent en la lettre "a" seraient féminins, soit en russe soit en espagnol. La plupart des autres lettres finales signifient que le mot est masculin (ou en russe masculin ou neutre). Mais en français, même si des noms qui finissent en le son "o" probablement ils seraient masculin, il y a beaucoup d'orthographes de ce son (-o,-au,-eau,-ot...)!

    The grammar is good, but it does sound a bit odd. I think you'd be better off with "Soap operas are similar to our lives" or "Soap operas resemble our lives"

    "On your mind" means you've been actively thinking about something recently: "That debate last night has been on my mind all morning." Or that you've been paying special attention to something. If you're worried about work or school or other responsibilities then you've "got a lot on your mind" "In your mind" is just a more general term.

    SVP Corrigez les erreurs! J'ai assisté une cérémonie de citoyenneté hier... (S'il vous plaît, corrigez les erreurs :)) D'abord, chaque lundi et mardi je fais du bénévolat à un centre qui aide les immigrés d'apprendre l'anglais. Hier, il y avait une une cérémonie de citoyenneté pour quelques étudiants. Cette cérémonie a eu lieu dans une école secondaire proche du centre. Dans la classe que je travaille il n'y avait personne qui aurait devenu un citoyen mais ils ont voulu voir d'ailleurs. Alors, on y va ensemble vers 11h du matin. J'étais assied avec les autres enseigneurs. Il y avait une juge fédérale, le maire et enfin le PDG de notre centre. Ils tous ont parlé à propos du fait que cette cérémonie "serait l'un des jours les plus meillures dans votre vie." Ils nous parle de tolérance et de diversité. Enfin, les immigrés qui devraient citoyens ont eu besoin de prêter serment. Ils l'ont fait avec élan! Tout le monde a fêté ensemble! Moi, je suis ravi de l'avoir voir.

    I have a dream

    My name is Jennifer, I come from LiaoNing Province. I was born in a rural place, in the Northeast of China. Now I live in Shanghai. I like travelling, hiking and movies. I watch American TV series during my free time. I raise two little cats. One of them is black and grey, the other is black and white. They are very cute . 
    I have been working as a flight attdent attendant for about three years. But I really want to become an international flight attdent attendant  so that I can travel around the world. Unfortunately，I failed in the interview. I think the reason is that my English and pronounciatian is bad. I won't give up and now I am still working on it. 
    I hope I can make it come true in the future. If you want to learn Chinese, I can help you. We can talk about a lot of topics including Northeastern Mandarin, have you heard about it? Believe me, it's interesting.
