What is “White Day” in Japan? Do you know what it is for? 日本の【ホワイトデー】ってなんの日ですか？何をする日か知っていますか？ 

New York is 3 hours ahead of California,
but it does not make California slow.
Someone graduated at the age of 22,
but waited 5 years before securing a good job!
Someone became a CEO at 25, 
and died at 50.
While another became a CEO at 50,
and lived to 90 years.
Someone is still single,
while someone else got married.
Obama retires at 55,
& Trump starts at 70.
Absolutely everyone in this world works based on their Time Zone.
People around you might seem to go ahead of you,
some might seem to be behind you.
But everyone is running their own RACE, in their own TIME
Don’t envy them or mock them.
They are in their TIME ZONE, and you are in yours!
Life is about waiting for the right moment to act.
So, RELAX.
You’re not LATE.
You’re not EARLY.
You are very much ON TIME.

这首诗是我五年前在网上偶然发现的，直至现在仍然备受鼓舞。我是个土生土长的中国人，我的父母也是非常按部就班的中国人，在他们看来我这个年龄就应该结婚生子，而我更享受自由。
最近法国的气温慢慢升高了，鸟语花香，每个人笑容洋溢，希望这个世界能够恢复疫情前的样子，祝福大家笑口常开！

In this episode, we're doing a shadowing exercise — and the passage is about blind boxes 🎁
🎯 Why is shadowing great for learning Chinese?
-Improves your pronunciation and natural rhythm
-Boosts listening and speaking speed at the same time
-Helps you notice tone changes — like "不" (bù) and "一" (yī) — without memorizing rules
-Just listen and repeat. Simple and effective!
📖 This passage is great for learners at an HSK 3–4 level.

盲盒是一种你买的时候不知道里面是什么的盒子。打开以后，你才会知道里面是什么玩具。
máng hé shì yì zhǒng nǐ mǎi de shí hòu bù zhī dào lǐ miàn shì shén me de hé zi。dǎ kāi yǐ hòu，nǐ cái huì zhī dào lǐ miàn shì shén me wán jù
一般，一套盲盒都是一个系列的，比如来自一部动画片，或者来自一个大家都喜欢的卡通形象。每个盲盒里面的东西都不一样，所以很多人喜欢买，想看看自己能得到什么。
yì bān，yí tào máng hé dōu shì yí gè xì liè de，bǐ rú lái zì yí bù dòng huà piàn，huò zhě lái zì yí gè dà jiā dōu xǐ huān de kǎ tōng xíng xiàng。měi gè máng hé lǐ miàn de dōng xi dōu bù yí yàng，suǒ yǐ hěn duō rén xǐ huān mǎi，xiǎng kàn kan zì jǐ néng dé dào shén me
很多人喜欢盲盒，是因为那种“不知道会得到什么”的感觉很有趣。有的人想收集一整套玩具，就会买很多盲盒。有时候盲盒里会有特别稀有的款式，谁抽到了都会很高兴。
hěn duō rén xǐ huān máng hé，shì yīn wèi nà zhǒng “bù zhī dào huì dé dào shén me” de gǎn jué hěn yǒu qù。yǒu de rén xiǎng shōu jí yì zhěng tào wán jù，jiù huì mǎi hěn duō máng hé。yǒu shí hou máng hé lǐ huì yǒu tè bié xī yǒu de kuǎn shì，shéi chōu dào le dōu huì hěn gāo xìng。
不过，盲盒也有让人不开心的时候。有些人买了很多，花了不少钱，但还是没抽到自己想要的那一个。有时候打开以后发现里面的东西不太喜欢，或者质量一般。还有人买得太多，家里都快放不下了。
bú guò，máng hé yě yǒu ràng rén bù kāi xīn de shí hou。yǒu xiē rén mǎi le hěn duō，huā le bù shǎo qián，dàn hái shì méi chōu dào zì jǐ xiǎng yào de nà yí gè。yǒu shí hou dǎ kāi yǐ hòu fā xiàn lǐ miàn de dōng xi bú tài xǐ huān，huò zhě zhì liàng yì bān。hái yǒu rén mǎi de tài duō，jiā lǐ dōu kuài fàng bu xià le
盲盒挺有意思的，但不要买太多。如果抽到不喜欢的，可以和朋友交换。这样不但能省钱，还能交到新朋友。
máng hé tǐng yǒu yì si de，dàn bú yào mǎi tài duō。rú guǒ chōu dào bù xǐ huān de，kě yǐ hé péng you jiāo huàn。zhè yàng bú dàn néng shěng qián，hái néng jiāo dào xīn péng you

Difference between cloth and clothes.

सीख: मूर्खों से बहस करना बेवक़ूफ़ी है क्योंकि वो कभी भी बुद्धिमान लोगों की बातों को सच नहीं मानते और ऐसे लोग बहुमत के चलते सत्य को भी झुठला कर असत्य साबित कर देते हैं. इसलिए ऐसे लोगों को समझने या उनसे तर्क करने का कोई फायदा नहीं.

Jag pratar om skönhetsingrepp och anledningen till att det har blivit mer populärt att utföra. Det har blivit mycket vanligare och i Australien är det ganska vanligt att kvinnor sprutar in botox för att motverka att rynkor uppstår. Jag pratar också om att vara kvinna och att åldras.
