Well, today I turn 26...and it's really not a big deal :) I had a great few days off and have everything I could ever ask for. God has been good! Today I slept in till noon again (I know I'm a lazy little person hehe) and then took a peek at my LiveJournal and fan boards before heading to Chinese class (The girls at FLOSS were so nice to wish me a Happy Birthday!! Thanks girls :D) The class was actually quite good today because the teacher was late *snicker* The principal ended up teaching and HE knows how to take the lesson and make it stick. The other girl is just not a good communicator. First of all, she mumbles the words she's saying and secondly she gives us long poems in Chinese to help us with the words we JUST learned. He was smart and gave us short poems that were easy to remember. Man, I wish HE would teach our class :)

Ok, no Brothers and Sisters or anything new under the sun worth watching so I finally sat down and checked out Crash. And I must say it deserved its Academy Award but did they have to curse so much? Couldn't they use something OTHER than the F word...it took away so much from the film because of that word used over and over without ceasing that it was all you heard long after they stopped. I DID like the scene where the cop saves the woman he just molested last night from the fiery explosion. And I like how the black cop at the beginning talks about the sense of touch and that's why we crash into each other. All the mistakes people make because of racial prejudices that are just not always true and innocent people get hurt or killed because of it was a great theme to the movie. Just cut the cursing already!
Ok, so some friends were showing me funny 24 websites after Monday's episode and I came across another one I'd never seen where they summarize the hour in a hilarious, Saturday Night Live type way except in a Comic Strip type format. If you need a good laugh and don't mind making fun of some of the flaws of the show, check out the link I've provided here: 24 in 24 (Season Six)



You've meant the world to me and I will never forget you...

FYI--Greg and Jean did podcasts interviews for 710 KILO radio station earlier this week. Go to podcast archives, and save the targets to your desktop. You can listen to them. They're really good!

It's your birthday? (or was) Well happy birthday m'dear. Hope you had a good one :)

How come you're learning Chinese? I always thought about learning it. My mother is Chinese, but I can only speak/understand Thai. Odd I know. She always speaks Thai around us, not Chinese.

What kind of Chinese you learning?

Glad you posted :D

OH that's cool! My Mom is Chinese too...imagine that :) It's destiny! I'm learning Mandarin but I'm thinking Cantonese would be better :D

Really? No way, I had no idea. lol, I always thought you were blond...no idea why :D

Wow, that's so cool. My mother can speak both, but she's better at Mandarin. Isn't that the most common?

Really? I had no idea...maybe I'm too bubbly for a brunette :) Mandarin is the official language of China but Cantonese is next. If you speak Mandarin you can speak to more people since they learn it in grade school. It's just so hard to pronounce :)

Wish you a Happy Birthday! And yay for sleeping till noon ;D

I'm also interested in this chinese learning thing. Just copy your answer what you'll respond to fogg's question, heh *g*

LOL!

Well I'm learning Mandarin because I want to go into a career that centers on international relations, specifically China because I'm half Chinese. It's a fun experience because it's my heritage and I like learning new things. Hopefully I'll be fluent one day and talking to diplomats in China :D

Wow, that sounds very cool! But I bet it isn't very easy.
I learne in the vietnamese restaurant in our town how you say "thank you"... at New Year's Eve (2005).. and the waitress always had to laugh *g* And later at that evening I learned "thank you" in turkish (he had to laugh too) ;D

I love learning anything in a new language...I love the challenge of getting the dialect right. And then I feel like a Cold War spy knowing this language that other might not *giggles*
