The background music implies the 酒吧 is actually a 迪厅, or is 酒吧 used interchangeably for disco/nightclub? changye, nice motivating story...for the single Poddies out there ;)

Did you know that 苏阿姨 is a famous brand for Hundun, Jiaozi, and Baozi? http://www.suayi.com/ The local supermarket in Beijing was flooded with 苏阿姨 advertisements.

Give her some time to catch a breadth. She is still under shock. I remember that a post from her from as early as 2006 where she stated that she had no hopes whatsoever for this lesson to ever appear. shi3ma3ke4 , a perfect suggestion. Essential for all of us who are parents. But it most definately must contain the names of the top 10 (better: 20) most influential dinsosaurs to enable us to read those fundamental pre-schoolers' books to our kids. And no disappointed love. ;)
