小丽最近的一次购物经历

上周末，我和朋友一起去了市中心的一家大型商场购物。因为正值季末打折，很多商品都有很大的折扣。
首先，我们去了服装区。我在那里看到了一件很喜欢的外套，原价500元，现在打八折，只要400元。我试穿了这件外套，觉得非常合适，于是决定买下它。接着，我们又去了鞋子区，朋友买了一双运动鞋，也是打了折的。
在购物的过程中，我们还去了电子产品区。我看中了一个最新款的耳机，虽然没有打折，但我觉得它的性能很好，就买了下来。我们在商场里逛了好几个小时，最后在一家餐厅吃了午饭。
购物结束后，我们去了收银台付款。因为买的东西比较多，我们分开付款，每个人都拿到了小票。商场里的人很多，但整个购物过程非常愉快。回到家后，我试用了新买的耳机，发现音质非常好，我对这次购物非常满意。
通过这次购物，我不仅买到了喜欢的商品，还享受到了打折的优惠。这样的购物经历让我觉得很开心。

Super Basic Spanish

¡Hola!

In that episode i purposely take a woman's voice as i embody the role of a " fille de joie " ( joy girl ) in the old Paris . 

"Je suis comme je suis"

Je suis faite comme ça
Quand j'ai envie de rire
Oui je ris aux éclats
J'aime celui qui m'aime
Est-ce ma faute à moi
Si ce n'est pas le même
Que j'aime à chaque fois
Je suis comme je suis
Je suis faite comme ça
Que voulez-vous de plus
Que voulez-vous de moi
Je suis faite pour plaire
Et n'y puis rien changer
Mes talons sont trop hauts
Ma taille trop cambrée
Mes seins beaucoup trop durs
Et mes yeux trop cernés
Et puis après
Qu'est-ce que ça peut vous faire
Je suis comme je suis
Je plais à qui je plais
Qu'est-ce que ça peut vous faire
Ce qui m'est arrivé
Oui j'ai aimé quelqu'un
Oui quelqu'un m'a aimée
Comme les enfants qui s'aiment
Simplement savent aimer
Aimer aimer...
Pourquoi me questionner
Je suis là pour vous plaire
Et n'y puis rien changer.

"I Am What I Am"

I am what I am
I’m made that way
When I want to laugh
Yes I erupt with laughter
I love the one that loves me
Is it my fault
If it’s not the same one
That I love each time
I am what I am
I’m made that way
What more do you want
What do you want from me
 
I’m made for pleasure
And nothing can change that
My heels are too high
My figure too curved
My breasts way too firm
And my eyes too darkly ringed
And then afterwards
What can you do about it
I am what I am
I please who I please
 
What can you do about it
What happened to me
Yes I loved someone
Yes someone loved me
Like children love each other
Simply knowing how to love
Love love…
Why ask me
I’m here for your pleasure
And nothing can change that.

This is a phrase that you can use.
สุขสันต์วันเกิด
สุขสันต์ mean Happy
วันเกิด means Birthday
Let’s talk a little bit about สุขสันต์
Eventhough it means Happy, but it is not used in the sentence like “I am happy”.
If you want to say “I am happy”, then you’ll have to say ฉันมีความสุข

Valentine’s day , etc.
