It's so stupid to put "+++ Attachment: No Virus (Clean)"
and yahoo picked up on that virus.

What a dumb idiot!!

there was a lady
had two sons
one of them married
the other one has a girlfriend
one day she started complaining
that her sons don't listen to her anymore
(her sons are adults)
and she blames it on the girls
that they caused her sons to be failures
while one of them is an assistant manager
and one is to be a lawyer
but she blames the wife of the older
that her son is not following her footsteps in his career
and she blames the girlfriend of the younger
that her other son failed the test

and my "f" key is getting stuck on the keyboard

Collecting Data

I'm collecting data from Taiwanese International Students for my preliminary Thesis.
I need information from them to see what they've been learning in the past and what they should/want to learn more

This is the list of things to learn that I came up with:

Grammar rules (Rhetoric, Sentence Structure, Parts of Speech, etc)
Grammar (in writing)
Grammar (in speaking)
Vocabulary (Memorization)
Vocabulary (Usage)
Standard Test Taking Skills
Phonetics Pronunciation (KK 音標)
Pronunciation (different system: _______)
Conversational Skills
Slang Usage
Reading
Listening
Composition writing
Western Cultural Knowledge

Anyway, if you know any Taiwanese International Students, or where i can find some (I already got UTD and A&M) let me know so i can send them the word file. Or i can send you the word file and you can send them out too :D the more the merrier.

oh and this is due on Tuesday, so I'll need them by Sunday night
