A Book: Catch Me If You Can



I started reading this book more than half a year ago. Unfortunately, I didn't finish yet. It is really not a very thick and complex book. It is not a reference book either. It is only a novel. I confess it with shame--It will take me 2 months to finish this book.
I have to say this book has lots of words.  I don’t know them at all.  So it could be a challenge for me . And at the same time, I have to write down what I think about every chapter or every few pages. That will be too much work for me. But what can I say, it is my duty to improve my English skills.
There is a Chinglish sentence, It was said that "Good good study, day day up"!

Happy Valentines Day!



Today is Valentine’s Day, February 14th. It is the first Valentine’s Day I have spent with my husband since I married him.
I also get blessings from my family. I am so happy to have my families.
In the past few years, I didn't celebrate the day because I didn't have any valentines at all. I got some gifts from my friends but they were not serious, just made some difference from every regular day. For instance, I would give my best girlfriend a gift. My brother would give me a gift and so on. I was happy when I got gifts at that time. But  I’ve learned the difference between now and the past. I was so happy that I could not believe it when I got a gift from my husband.
Happy Valentines Day! Everyone!
May my happiness with you all the time!

Strange Cycle


I found a truth. I would step into a strange cycle when I started learning something new.
I would get more confused since I learned more grammar. That was happened that I would think about the grammar, tense, complete meaning and so on before I built a sentence.  I felt that I made more mistakes in my article than before. I almost forgot what I wanted to say in the article when I found out the correct way to write. The same thing happened when I was speaking.
Sometimes, I got/was confused about what had been done in the past three months. Why did my writing become worse? Actually, I always have three steps to learn  anything new. At the beginning, when I compeletly don't know one thing at all. I can learn fast and make everything perfect. I was confident.Then, step by step, I would go in to a fog. That was such a hard time for me because I got confused about everything, even  when it was easy. Fortunately, I would get out of the  fog and I’d be able to reach a higher level and see things differently.
So my studying has always been more like a heart rate going up and down.
How can I deal with that?

Driving License

I have been to Canada three months ago. I used 7 days to got G1 license in the first month. I used one month to got my G2 license at the beginning of February. I did perfect, My instructor told me about the exam. Even though I knew I was good, I was so happy to hear that again! :)
I heard that two skills people had to know very well in Canada. One is English which I am learning now, another is driving which I have got the license on 5th.

The Chinese New Year

The 2013 Chinese New Year was the first main Chinese festival since I reached in Canada.  Also, this date was the first celebration of new year without firecrackers. But I ate dumplings on 9th with my husband. I was so happy that my husband would celebrate and remember this day with me. I didn't feel lonely when I should felt lonely.
It was a heavy snow, here and there, on Friday. It was very difficult to drive on the road, yet we still went to a good restaurant for lunch. The only reason was I felt like to eat noodles that day. How wonderful husband he is! :)
Then we went to his friends' house and had dinner there. They are good at cooking Korea food, especial shrimps and meat. The Chinese and Korean's new year is the same day. I didn't know before. We celebrated together with beers.
We watched two sick movies with two pieces of pizza from Pizza Pizza next day. I had a wonderful time in the 2013 new year's date which I never did before with my husband.
 Thanks a lot, my husband, I will remember all what you did for me.
