There's a way.

My friends visited me today, and we chatted away in English before opening the textbooks. We completely lost track of time and kept talking for 90 minutes because today's topic was quite interesting to all of us: memorable relationships. Ex-boyfriends in our school days, long-distance relationships, and of course, conflicts and cheats. Wow. Everybody has history.
I still remember 3 guys (apart from my ex-boyfriend in high school and my husband) with whom I shared wonderful days. One of them was 7 older than me, and the other one was 7 younger. Another one was an exchanged student from U.S and he was 11 years junior to me. I will never forget them because they were very nice to me.
If my friends and I had spoken Japanese, we wouldn't have given away our ex-boyfriends. It may sound odd, but a second language let us allow to be a different personality sometime.

Reebok Women's EasyTone Rush SF Walking Shoe () Reebok View detail of this item

I like reading and studying English very much, but it leads to a sedentary lifestyle. After doing housework, I went out to take a stroll. Walking outside was quite pleasant, but soon after that I felt a pain in my toes. I hadn't been particular about my shoes before, but if I take up walking on a regular basis, I guess I surely need a pair of walking shoes.

They are Chinese who have superb gifts as singer-songwriters, but oddly few people know of them. I asked two Chinese women before, but none of them were familiar with them.
When I just started to study Chinese, I was looking for some movies or music that piqued my curiosity about the language. One day, I found them in a Chinese textbook, and since then I've been into their songs. I've trying gathering their information especially about their new albums, but all my effort seem to be in vain. Why haven't I found them even on the Net? If they have kept singing, I might have gotten some news about them.
Is there anybody who knows about them? I admit that I'm a huge fan of "1983组合."

I've been trying to gathe their information about them,



You can listen to one of their songs called "不夜" here.

We celebrated our 12th wedding anniversary yesterday. Our anniversary coincides with my husband's birthday because of his request, so he has managed to remember the date. Good work. I bought a birthday present for him, and our children gave him some handmade gifts. We ate out for dinner at our favorite restaurant that served superb smorgasbord food. As always, we ate a lot and drank a lot until we were full to the throat.

The Complete Novels of Jane Austen (Special Editions) (2005/02/05) Jane Austen View detail of this item

I like the novels written by Jane Austen, because I find them quite profound. She didn't write about any offbeat romance. In her books, there is no brutal violence, no murder, no gun, no bomb, and no confidential conspiracy which threaten our lives . All she had are almost what we have now, such as men and women, relationships, family, society, ethics, and people's mindset.
I've been getting an impression that some today's authors tend to try drawing readers' attention by way of picturing extreme world, but they should know that not everyone has an interest in such a book.
I've been struggling, wavering, and giving up on something like Jane's characters do. That's why I like Jane's novels. I have a feeling that I can relate to Jane even though I live in a totally different world from the one she lived in. Why is that? I suppose that's because we are both women.
