5月5日 My visit to Ancient Xi'AnI am now in the ancient city of Xi'An city in central northern China with more than 3000 years of recorded history. It's quite amazing and reminds me in some ways of Beijing when I visited there about 10 years ago 4月11日 My First Brazil TripHaving spent a week in Brazil in 3 cities, I finally realized my long wish to cover all the world's continents. I went to Curitiba, a mid-size city, Sao Paolo a large 18-million population city, and a much smaller beach town called Santos.
Will write more about my Brazil trip but in the mean time please check out the pictures I took while in Brazil.
Brazilians generally are quite comfortable showing their affection to each other in public. I remember at least seeing 10 times per day on my weekend in Sao Paolo that couples lip-kissed, both indoor or outdoor. I then asked myself, would Asians do this as naturally? I don't think so but after seeing this I think I'd learn from the Brazilians so that I would tell myself that sometimes it is fine to show affection more in public to someone I like or love.
这一回到巴西, 也让我领吾到美国的生活水平要比巴西的多好多,所以该珍惜的就要多珍惜呀。
巴西人差不多95%-98%都不说英文, 幸好我在机场领走前在书店里卖了一本葡萄牙-英语的小字典, 在巴西街上, 车里都很管用! 4月1日 Funny Chinese NamesVery funny, enjoy! Subject: Chinese Names - Annie Wan (Anyone) Caller : Hello, can I speak to Annie Wan? Operator : Yes, you can speak to me. Caller: No, I want to speak to Annie Wan! Operator: You are talking to someone! Who is this? Caller: I'm Sam Wan. And I need to talk to Annie Wan! It's urgent. Operator: I know you are someone and you want to talk to anyone! But what's this urgent matter about? Caller: Well... just tell my sister Annie Wan that our brother Noel Wan was involved in an accident. Noel Wan got injured and now Noel Wan is being sent to the hospital. Right now, Avery Wan is on his way to the hospital. Operator: Look if no one was injured and no one > was sent to the hospital, then the accident isn't an urgent matter! You may find this hilarious but I don't have time for this! Caller: You are so rude! Who are you? Operator: I'm Saw Lee. Caller: Yes! You should be sorry. Now give me your name!! Thought s about BlogOK, it's been about 3 months now that I have gone into this new "Blog" bandwagon (thanks to my Shifu for her introduction).
I think this Blog phenomenon is such an interesting thing. I remember when I was young in elementary school, I used to write diary occasionally. It's a very private activity and no one would read it except myself. However, this Blog is very different because it's like an open multimedia diary where friends or practically anyone can read it and "participate" in your online diary, and to some extent your life!
Anyway, I just wanted to write something because someone (ehem) hinted that I need to be more diligent in adding content to my Blog, so here it is :)
Btw, I saw this interesting & artistic blog so just like to remember the address here (I especially like her Nov 30 Blog entry on a conversation between a man and a Monk):
Often I wonder how come people can spend so much time on Blog. I am too busy to keep up, but I do like to maintain this activity from time to time :) 3月5日 学习成语前天和三位朋友宵夜,向他们学了几句话/成语, 我想应该写下来才不会给忘了:
1) 差之毫厘, 失之千里
2) 不以物喜, 不以己悲
3) 由“险入__易, 由 __ 入 “险” 难 ( 忘了, 有谁能提我填好?)
4) 姚窕叔女, 君子好逑
5) 曾经沧海难为水, 除去巫山不见云
2月20日 A Man's Character上星期四在休士顿机场因为芝加哥下大雨, 等了将·近六个小时才上飞机 (晚上十一点才回到家), 就在休士顿机场内卖了一本美国富豪Donald Trump写的书 "How to Get Rich"。 读了大概三份之一后, 有一个 phrase 我觉得很有意思的, 就是 To Test a Man's Character, Give Him Power. 我觉得 it is very true that power will tend to reveal a man's true character.
So anyone like to test my character? :) Hanxiong Feb 27, 2006 1月29日 狗年经典祝福语?大家新年好! 昨天和好几位朋友们去了UC的中国同学会春节表演和舞会,之后较晚在Chinatown供宵夜的时后,大家凑热闹说每个人都得以“狗”字的成语或词说一说。挺好笑的。我因为中文程度不高, 所以回到家就上网查一查。看到了这偏小文章, 觉得挺有意思。 和大家分享一下:
