I live ..

Hi..
emm.. I am Masha. You might ask me; why are you studying English?
It is a casual story. If you were born in an English-speaking country, you would not have any problems because people speak English all over the world.

Introduction to Japanese style painting

Hi.
Could someone correct my English?

Today I would like to tell you about Japanese painting.

Japnese painting originated in China over a thousand years ago.
We usually paint on the Japanese Washi paper made by "Washi shokunin"(I don't know how to say it in English). It takes a lot of skill to make Washi paper.
Washi paper is made of plants, like what we call "Kozo","Asa", and"Mitsumata". These fibers make the paper strong enough to use.

A new start

I am Ivy from Qingdao,China. Qingdao city is famous for its beautiful beach and QINGDAO beer .There is love everywhere. When someone is experiencing difficulty, people lend a helping hand. Welcome to our city! It will be a good journey.

I hope I can improve my oral english and hearing .It will be good for job. Also, it will be convinent to watch programs of original edition. I hope I can speak english freely with foreign customers in the future.

Today, I luckily found this address. It will be a new start for me; not only english learning but also making new friends!

Terrible day

I never imagined that i would go through a day like today. It was raining heavily and so many cars broke and stopped. There was a terrible traffic jam that I had never seen before. Unfortunately, our company's car broke as well. The backup car couldn't go through the traffic jam to pick us up. We had no choice but to walk home by ourselves . Many people walked in the road because they were waiting for cars to get home.
The sewer was higher than I could handle. My shoes and skirt were wet . I couldn't see what touched my legs.  I was scared that snake would sneak up behind the sewer. Everything was a mess. I was thinking about how to get home. I kept walking with my colleagues. It took four hours to get home. This was the first time I felt homesick. LOL. But I think it was a good experience.

First notebook entry: Introducing myself

l'm a college student now; l'm English major. l want to learn the real English, not the English from the textbook, which is really stupid. Even though l have a good score, l still can't communicate with the foreginers. l don't understand the real meaning from them, the way they express themselves. A lot of chinese college students are still like children. Of course it depends on our education system, traditonal family education, and the way we walk is the way our parents have chosen. lt leads us to be an incapable person in the end. Since I am Chinese, I feel I have no choice but to accept it.
