Hello! My name is Derek. I am a Computer Science student in Vancouver, BC. I am studying mandarin so that I can speak to more people in the world, and because it seems to be one of the most useful languages to learn. I like to sing, play the drums, dance, do muay thai, do BJJ, rock climb, listen to music, and speak new languages. I can speak some French and Japanese as well, but decided not to put those on this profile. Lets chat, and learn together! 你好，我叫 Derek。我在温哥华加拿大学计算机科学。我在学中文所以我跟多人可以说。我喜欢唱歌，跳舞，听音乐，和说外语。我也会说小的法语和本日语，但是我现在只想学中文。我们一起学吧！

    我喜欢鬼故事 我真喜欢鬼故事。我学习中文一边听中文的鬼故事。我不明白这些鬼故事，但是我觉得听帮我学习。时而我知道个故事因为我在英语里听了，但是多数听的故事我不明白。 小的时候我爱读鬼故事看恐怖电影。我不知道为什么，我就才喜欢。我家人不喜欢鬼故事，我女朋友和我朋友也不喜欢。如果你知道好鬼故事，请告诉我。

    Yesterday I learned something about American expressions based on colors. Red means hot<s style="color: rgb(187, 187, 187);"> and </s>/angry and pink means healthy. Now I want to introduce the different color <s style="color: rgb(187, 187, 187);">have different</s> meanings in China.
    First of all, in the USA green means <s style="color: rgb(187, 187, 187);">sick feeling</s> feeling sick but in China it means cheating. Someone whose wife or girlfriend is dating <s style="color: rgb(187, 187, 187);">with</s> others may say he has a green hat.
    White is pure and innocent (Consider: "White stands for purity and innocence"). In traditional Chinese <s style="color: rgb(187, 187, 187);">traditional</s> culture, white is often used in funerals. The decorations <s style="color: rgb(187, 187, 187);">is</s> are white<s style="color: rgb(136, 136, 136);">,</s> and the clothing is white. So in China white means death. In ancient times yellow was <s style="color: rgb(187, 187, 187);">just lowed</s> used by emperors <s style="color: rgb(187, 187, 187);">use</s>, but now it means porn. I don’t know why <s style="color: rgb(187, 187, 187);">and from</s> or when <s style="color: rgb(187, 187, 187);">on</s> yellow became a <s style="color: rgb(187, 187, 187);">not that good</s> bad color,but <s style="color: rgb(187, 187, 187);">Like we said</s> when a woman <s style="color: rgb(187, 187, 187);">who</s> has yellow face it means she is ugly and old.

    网络用语:我喜欢龟！ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CMNry4PE93Y 因为孩子有花脸这个女人问孩子“你的脸觉得怎么样？” 和孩子说，“我喜欢龟！”这好笑因为他说完了得很快，还我们不知道为什么他说了。 Because the kid has a painted face the woman asks him "What do you think?" and the kid says "I like Turtles!" This is funny because he says it so fast, and we don't know why he said it.
