About time It was said that time is like the water in the sponge. If you try to squeeze the sponge, you will always get some water.

Born as a bright flower Have you ever met someone who do not really know what love is but still, looks like a normal person? she can walk and she can talk. someone have been caring about her for nearly eight years, caring about her daily routine and emotional needs. she's been feeling that she does care about that person and even put that person the first place in her life. However, that person told her the truth one night which she never feel reluctant to accept. She never really thanked him from deep heart before, and did not know how to do as a return for his gentle consideration. This time at night when that person is together with her other friends in another place, she is feeling hopeless and helpless. Yes, she indeed do not love that person as much as she's been thinking, and she never try her best to turn into a better woman as he expects. she refused to develop all good vitures he's been trying to give her, but always stayed in her bad habits and enjoyed them. Would a person who do not know what love is be successful in anything? and can you imagine that there is a woman who would feel most embrrassed before a person loving her most in this world. I am praying that God bless her to become a real gentle- hearted woman who could ease his sadness and to become an expert as a return for his patience, love and guidance. May God bless him good health and a happy long life!

Trouble with English Tonight one of my friends asked me to help him call some German and be his interpreter. I suddenly found I had big trouble speaking English, after a long time just reading and listening.... it is much easier to understand English than use it to express youself.... That's why this website occured to me....seems it's been years since I last logged in ..... to anyone, a language partner is hard to meet.

I want your help about why this happened...........

Hello everyone............. something happened in this early morning, and I couldn't figure it out.......

Today is one of my friends's birthday, whom I got to know here on italki.com.......... we've contacted on msn for more than 1 month...... we had text chat mixing with voice chat..........  usually if couldnt meet at night on msn, we would leave messages to each other........  anyway, I think at least we are good friends, or even more than that.........

Last night I was on msh waiting for him, making my icon online, just wanted to say "Happy Birthday" to him......... a surprise.......... he 'd been there on msn hiding himself, keeping silent for almost 4 hours until this early morning........, at that moment, it was August 10th there in his country..........so I sent him a message ".... Happy Birthday....."  .....  he answered "thank you dear".............totally unexpected, he was there,.......suddenly, I had nothing to say............

He was there........ he was already there for almost 4 hours, hiding himself, seeing me online, keeping silent................he said he was busy with some urgent work and forgot his birthday............  I really dont know why he hide himself even to me........... he could say hello  and explained about his job............  that wouldnt take a minute...........

He wanted to see me by webcam as his birthday gift, I refused!...........  why I should do that........

why he hide himself, keeping silent to me?.....  was i going to interrupt his job?....... i am not an reasonable woman?......... i would be a trouble to him?.......... I cant get the answer............

This early morning we talked a few words and me left............. later at noon, he left me messages as usual...........  he said he really wanted to talk with me last night............. i wanted to believe him......... but cant understand him.......... 

He always says job is not so important as friends.......... for friends, he could cancle work.......  i never agreed with that......... but now........

I write this problem out to seek the answer from welcoming everyone, and to practice my english too.

Thank you.

Sophia

Change your attitude, change your life You know, most of people tend to say no in their lives. They have no confiednce of everything new, even they've been prepared for a long time. There is s common knowledge that practice makes perfect, but in reality rare people challenge himself. They never volunteer to do some work, even the opportunity is standing in front of him. That's the point. But to change the attitude, that's it, to change one's thinking is not a easy task. It needs power, perseverance, and most of all, it requires your knowing clearly what you want to be in your life. Are you satisfied with what you've got in life now? Are you willing to lead a commonplace life? Be sure of what kind of life you want, then make your decision. Whatever you want needs a price to pay.

About language changing      I'm Chinese and not good at English, but i have something to say, in English. Please forgive my poor E, lol:) 

      It seems that people who want to learn Chinese are more popular than those wanting to learn English, expecially those are Chinese.      

      For some extent, I can underestand. Because I like Indian more. 
     For what? For I like India very much.
     For what? For India is the homeland of saints, from my opinion, so I think most of the Indian are religious.
      
      Of course, it may not logical. It's just from my impression. Maybe Chinese numbers are too great. lol:)


     

First notebook entry: Introducing myself I‘m Sophia, 35years old, vegetarian, from Chian. I love Indian very much, for so many saints had stepped on the land there. Fortunately, I'm going to Indian this September. I hope to improve my listening skills, oral English, and English ways of thinking within 3 months from now. But if I would make any real friends during this course, it's God's blessing!
