Posted on: No Spring, No Wedding?
February 8, 2010 at 11:13 AM我觉得现在找不到男朋友的女孩子比较多. 好男人都被抢光了.所以我们现在会听到一个新的词叫作"黄金剩女".就是说一些女孩子本身的素质和要求比较高,所以找男朋友很困难.至于寡妇年,我觉得结婚这种事是两个人的事,只要双方和各自父母觉得没问题就Ok啦.

February 8, 2010 at 10:50 AMOnce when I do a needs analysis, I asked a student ni3 xi3huan1 chi1 shen2me?(what do you like to eat),then he said wo3 xi3huan1 chi1 zhong1guo2ren2 instead of zhong1guo2cai4, which scared me. haha. But now I think he won't make that mistake any longer.

Posted on: End of the Year Bonus Surprise
February 8, 2010 at 10:32 AM朝三暮四除了大家说的意思以外,还有一个比较贬义的意思是说一个女人她用情不专一,不是一心一意的爱着一个人而是一会想着这个人一会想着那个人.所以朝三暮四的女人要不得啊!(Except the above meaning as you guys said, zhao1 san1 mu4 si4 also can describe a girl who are not loyal to her love, sometimes she think about this guy, sometimes she think about another, so this kind of girls is not good to be a partner.)
Posted on: The White Spectrum of Meaning
February 8, 2010 at 10:00 AMThe explanation of bai2 zhu4, bai2 chi1 and bai2 ri4 zuo4 meng4 is so interesting, and I think dress in white is fine but it's not good to wear white hair accessory on the head especially white flower. Wedding party is an exception because white means pure of love.

February 8, 2010 at 9:28 AM我对装修一点法子也没有,但是jenny说得很对,如果自己家里装修一定要懂这些,否则会被人骗的.很期待最后这对小夫妻把他们的家装修成什么样子,哈哈!(I totally have no idea on designing an apartment at all,but as what Jenny said if you want to decorate your home, you must know something about that,or you will be cheated.Looking forward to seeing what the this couple's apartment will be finally,haha!)
Posted on: 郎咸平谈中美股市
November 19, 2009 at 5:29 AM我爸爸买的股票都被套牢了,所以我从来不买股票.但是可以做一些其他风险比较低的投资,比如债券,基金等等.长期投资虽然利率低但是风险小,比起股票不会让人胆战心惊的.

Posted on: Mailing a Package at the Post Office
February 8, 2010 at 1:20 PMSending a package by air or by sea is very expensive in Chinese post office, and the price will depend on the quantity and weight of the package, and it also takes a long time to arrive, so sometimes we will choose international express service which will be faster but much more expensive.
