Posted on: The Third Tone
February 3, 2008 at 1:10 AM

The tone group of lessons has been really helpful so far. 2nd tone is still toughest for me--often I use the 1st tone when I think I'm using 2nd! And 3rd tone easily sneaks into my 2nd tone attemps--but some words are easier than others, I dont know why. Loved the example of the emphatic NO3; everyone has said it like that at one point or another. Keep up the great work!

thats so hilarious! I want to know, has that EVER worked ANYWHERE??? Now if the tables were turned and it was a girl coming on to a guy it would definitely work. Girl: I have to take my shirt off I spilled beer on it. Guy(looking around for a camera cause he cant believe his luck): sure! Girl: I work out every day, wanna touch? Guy: absolutely! (still wondering if this is for real or not) hahahahaha

ya maybe the next intro could be something like "Foreigners who speak Chinese Rock!!" "And they get invited out to dinner more often too!!" haha (don't worry am not offended by the exclusion--I don't consider myself a "speaker of Chinese" yet! But am working hard at it)

It's funny Bazza says if he was gay he would be attracted to Chinese guys!! But I don't like girly boys so needless to say haven't found any attractive chinese guys(yet)!! Guys who are thinner than I am (and I'm not very big) just are NOT sexy!!!

I don't necessarily want Asian hair just want someone who knows how to deal with NON-Asian Hair. haha I have bad hair for 3 years in China, just recently found someone who will do what I ask and even though he doesn't really style it the way I like, I can fix it when I get home!!!
