    Why I'm single

    I've been single for 5 years and Taiwanese people always said say "you are too picky" when they find out. after they've known it. Yes, I'm picky and of course I have to be picky because I need someone who really likes me a lot and has the patience to be with me. Guys don't care about how much they share in common with girls, many in common between their girls and them, but girls do care about this, and I care about this a lot! I've not been actively looking for any relationships initiatively in these years, I prefer to just go with the flow. I'd like to let this go with the flow. Feeling at ease with yourself when you are alone is the most important thing in the life.


    Nice job! This color is a correction, and this color is a suggestion for more natural expression.

    Another way to express "I prefer to just go with the flow" is to say "I prefer to just let it happen" or "I'd prefer to just let these things happen on their own".

    My Invention

    On June 8, we returned home from our vacation. Our flight from Tampa, FL to Albuquerque, NM was 5 hours long. We landed in Albuquerque, NM at 6 pm. Then we picked up our baggage and took a shuttle to our long-term parking. Our car, a Subaru Forester 2016, was waiting for us. Then we visited Costco to buy some food and drove home to Window Rock. It was 11 PM when we got home.
    How you can know if, while you were on vacation, your refrigerator was not out of power? A temporary power outage may have happened and all your food in the freezer may have been spoiled and then frozen again. You may eat something and get poisoned.
    To avoid such a possibility, I put in my freezer a bottle a third full of water. First, I put it horizontally and when the water was frozen, I put it vertically. If a power outage happens, then the water will melt and gather at the bottom of the bottle. I opened my freezer and checked the bottle. The shape of the ice in the bottle was not changed. It means our freezer was not out of power even temporarily. It is safe to heat fully cooked burgers that were stored in the freezer and eat them.


    Hey Sergey, nice story and smart idea.

    "A temporary power outage may have happened and all your food in the freezer may have been spoiled and then frozen again. " - I don't think your sentence was incorrect but I think this sounds a bit more natural. Cheers!

    禽兽不如 :--) 今天早上我决定了到图书馆学习汉语。我原来从九点上午到五点下午打算留在那儿。当时里,我先用课本办法学习汉语,然后我感到枯燥的时候,用视频办法。虽然我学习很用功,但是二三左右小时以后我开始肚子饿了。所以我的东西打包和给我女朋友一个电话问她见面吃午饭。不过她因为我昨天傻说了话对我生气和拒绝了和我见面。我只好独自吃午饭结果。 我因为感觉冒险决定把一家新的饭店尝一尝。我不久找了到一家朋友介绍的饭店。其实,这家美国的饭店名叫麦当劳。 我到达以后,我发现一个很漂亮女士背影。她的头发又长又黑,她也长不太胖,何况她的衣服并不错。 我鼓起勇气和轻轻地接近她的后面和讲她:“你好宝贝,今天我心情好,我让你加我微信,怎么样?” 美女一转了身体我就恐怖地发现了。美女就是我女朋友。:----) Don't worry, it's not a true story! ...请帮我改正我的错误!谢谢!

    An interesting day

    Today is a sunny day,and also the last workday of this week.To our surprise, our managing director bought a big durian and shared it with us after his lunch. The smell of durian is so special, but it's not to my taste. Moreover, I saw one of my colleagues drooling when we were cutting the durian, haha.
    And what about you?Do you like to eat durian?


    "not to my taste" = "not to my liking" = I don't like it. I think that's what you meant?


    Anyway, great work! I hate durian! But if others enjoy it, then I have no problem with that, but it would be nice if they cut it up away from me :)

    日记-我们应该在哪儿吃饭? 这是我的无聊的故事,请纠正我的错误!感谢! This is just a silly story I came up with, I'm practicing some writing and grammar, any help is much appreciated :) 最近,我和我朋友,他名叫春树,约好了在大学见,去大学附近的饭馆吃晚饭。不过,大学附近有很多饭馆,好不容易才决定在哪家饭馆吃饭。 Recently, my friend Haruki and I organised to meet at university, to go to a place nearby to eat dinner. But the area near the university has many restaurants, so it wasn't easy to decide where to eat. 为了决定,我们在路上走来走去。我们在日本饭馆的前面停止,为了看看那份菜单,可是春树没兴趣,因为他是日本人,再说他每天吃哪种菜。下家饭馆是泰国的,就是那家饭馆塞满满的,再说春树不喜欢太辣的菜。 To decide, we walked back and forth along the road. We stopped at a Japanese restaurant to have a look at the menu, but Haruki wasn't interested, because he is Japanese, and furthermore he eats this kind of food every day. The next restaurant was Thai, but that restaurant was packed full, and Haruki doesn't like his food too spicy. 那会儿,我饿饿的,我容不忍过走那么多美味的饭馆。下个地方,我快快地拉他进门去。一个服务员欢迎我们,我查看了她的衣服,她的衣服很暴露。我想,很有趣。 By that time, I was really hungry, and I couldn't take any more walking past so many delicious looking restaurants. The next place we came by, I pulled him into the door. A waitress welcomed us, and I noticed her clothes, that her clothes were quite revealing. I thought, how interesting! 然后我们找了一份菜单。在墙上没挂着一份菜单。在桌子上,也没有。那个地方其实只有一张桌子。另外,那些墙就是粉色的,我想,那么奇怪的饭馆环境! After that, we started looking for a menu. There wasn't a menu hanging on the wall, nor was there one on the table. In fact, that table only had one table. Furthermore, the walls were all pink coloured, and I thought to myself, what a strange way to decorate a restaurant! 我问了那个服务员,“请问,哪种饭馆有那么粉色的墙们,有那么点儿桌子, 也没有菜单? ”她笑起来,然后她说“不是饭馆,这是按摩院!” So I asked the waitress, "excuse me, what kind of restaurant has such pink walls, so few tables, and even still no menus?" She started to laugh, and then she replied, "this isn't a restaurant, it's a massage parlour!" 太为难了!我们快快地出门去再往麦当劳走了 How embarrassing! We quickly flew out the door and made our way for McDonald's.

    "Should recent experience be anything to go by" - another way to put this is "judging from recent experience" or "judging from past experience". Recent experience refers to the experience of hosting previous guests, who have been annoying to host in his hostel. "to go by" means to use as a guide, or as an example. "should" basically means "if" here. So basically, the person is saying that they expect new guests (arrivals) to behave in a similar manner as other recent guests, they expect them to behave in quite an annoying fashion.

    My first essay

    I haven't write written an essay in English for a really long time. I really hope someone can help me revise my essay. I will graduate next month, then I will go to Australia to study for my/an undergraduate degree. Now, I really should study hard to improve my English. Sometimes I feel really happy to study abroad, because I think it is really exciting, I can meet new people and do something that I have never done. However ,sometimes I feel really nervous and even overwhelmed, mainly because my spoken and written English are not really good. I can't speak fluently and express my meaning clearly. I have decided to write essays here every day. Maybe not only can I improve my English skills but also make some new friends.


    Great work! The more you write, the better you will get, so keep writing! And enjoy your studies in Australia!
