Reunions with school fellows (2)
Continued from the first part…
Reunions with school fellows (1)
We all attended a secondary accounting school in Jiamusi, Heilongjiang, which had later changed its name and then been upgraded to be part of the University of Jiamusi. In other words, the school has long ceased to exist and only our shared memory makes the school still alive.
My English; seeking a language exchange partner
It’s really frustrating when I find myself struggling to speak good English, especially when I think about this: I started to learn English as a junior high school student in 1990. It’s 19 years now! Anything can happen in 19 years! But today, I still stammer or talk in a confusing way and nobody can understand me when I speak to native speakers on the phone.
My six pet peeves
Inconsiderate people
It never seems to occur to them that they should consider people or things other than themselves. They don’t think it a big deal smoking near others, standing in the way of others who have to get off a bus or overtake them on the road, leaving food wastes in the sink even though they are sure the wastes cannot pass through the drain, let lights or other electrical devices on even though they don’t need so, or worse, never wanting to learn to be considerate……… I’m not implying that I can be considerate every time and on every occasion. But, at least, I want to be considerate and am ready to learn what I can do to be more considerate.
My friend in Egypt
I’ve known Mostafa Elmasry for around 6 years. We used to chat over Yahoo messenger when I worked in Harbin, Heilongjiang province.
