I got a request to post something in Chinese. I would love to write something in Chinese but I am incapable of doing so because I don't have the program for the Chinese typo thingy. I used to have it until my lappy got reformat.
Believe it or not, my Chinese is still better than most China/Taiwanese/Hong Kong/Shanghai people. LOL. Well.. that's what other people tell me. My cousins said I speak like a Taiwanese. HAHA. U know those Taiwanese slang?? LOL. And I am very proud of myself for the level of Chinese I speak. I forgot how to write some words which can be forgiven since this is my 4th year in Aus. But, I still know how to speak fluently. My Aunt still think I don't speak good Chinese anymore. Like puhlezz... ok! My Chinese is better than yours!!!!!
Arh... Chinese. As Hel puts it, the language of the future. That's why I chose to do Chinese in Year 12. Yup, I still learn Chinese in Aus. Okay.. that's not the primary reason but part of the reason. The true reason is because it's easier to earn marks if u take a language and secondly, encouragement (more like pressure) from parents to polish my Chinese. LOL.
One funny story. During the Yr 12 External Oral Examination, the examiner ask me this in Chinese. "What do u normally do with ur GIRLFRIENDS?" And "Girlfriend" in Chinese is nu peng you right? I'm like what? Coz to me nu peng you only has one meaning which is a guy's lover, unlike in English it means close girl mates. I'm like I don't have a "girlfriend". And I didn't expect an old man to use the term "girlfriend" to describe friend. And just sat there and stared at him. Then, he asked me a different question. No wonder I got a B+ for oral.
