Hi there. The name is nacarat. And if nacarat is too hard for you, you may also call me N or Nac or sth else as you please. For the record...My english sucks to the bone even though I have spent almost two years, devoting my dacedant life to it. Well, I see Language as my solitude&salvation. I learnt for fun...Not for the purpose to get the better of sb or to get through those weird Chinese English tests... Once again, I would love to confess that I am lame about english before you guys seeing me as a devoted learner... I always make a point of trying the hardest to get rid of subtitles, which means one is able to understand fluent english. As tragic as we are, average chinese ppl find out that they are more comfortable to read, instead of listening, that is, cos we remember the "shape" of those words. That's a weakness of me as well; a fact to be reckoned with. And here we go. I'm going to post my petty attempts of learning thereafter, as long as I can, as much as I want. Btw......HOWEVER BEAUTIFUL AND RARE A LANGUAGE SEEMS, IT'S NO MORE THAN A LANGUAGE...AND THOSE PEOPLE WHO WERE BORN INTO IT ARE NO MORE THAN A LUCKY BUNCH OF SONS OF BITCHES. I HAVE SEEN TOO MANY YANK-WORSHIPPING GUYS...THAT'S UNCALLED-FOR. EVEN THOSE HEAD-STRONG YANKEES THINK THAT CHINESE CHICKS TREAT THEM WAY TOO NICELY. ALWAYS REMEMBER WHERE YOU ARE FROM. DEALING WITH THEM MORE, YOU WILL SEE STH CALLED BLOOD.
