I’m so glad that you enjoy the trips. Well, I’m still a student and cannot afford the expenses for a trip right now. But I hope I can make it one day after graduation. Your country will be on my list, if possible. ‘cause I’d really like to have some real life experiences in your country, especially the Big Apple, where various kinds of cultures are mixed together... It must be fun.
And again, thanks for your prayers. Things gonna be fine...
Video lecture on the awesome power of memes.
Shorter answer here.
I would love for you to come to America. Please let me know if you do. We would welcome you to our home. I would hope to repay some of the kindness I was shown in China. I don’t live in the “Big Apple”. But, I could show you buffalo, American Indian reservations, Mount Rushmore, cowboys, and our cabinet/flooring/furniture products plant, (which uses wood from China). We have had many Chinese visitors in our home. They have all enjoyed their visits here.
DITHF was the very first thing I thought of...
I think I have to go to bed now... haven’t sleep for almost 22 hours... See you later...
....”do they actually hunt for food there?”....
No, they usually go to WalMart, especially on the first day of the month when their government welfare checks arrive. I’m afraid that our Indian Reservation system is rather sad, and that disappoints me. They were a once noble people (and most still are) who now depend on government assistance for their needs. My husband is a Cherokee Indian who was able to go to university and has a very successful business. He is very proud of his American Indian heritage.
We need more dialog like this. It will foster more understanding and respect between our two nations.
We are all praying for your country, chinaboy. Americans don’t judge individual Chinese, it’s your government officials and their actions that we judge. Chinese people have always been thought of as kind, joyful, good people, at least by people I know. Don’t believe everything our corrupt media has to say about anything. Media all over the world says what it wants people to hear, not what’s really going on. Blessings, M
How wonderful. One of our friends adopted a beautiful Chinese girl and named her Grace, gift from God. She’s a real treasure.
They do in Alaska. Subsistence hunting.
Heck, we hunt for food here in Michigan. A good sized buck goes a long way. Then there’s bear, turkey, duck/goose, and 365 days of fishing. Food prices being what they are, we’ve been eating a lot of fresh fish lately.
i really question if you are really a chinese. as a chinese woman myself i live half year in china half year in europe i never find a problem to login into most of western websites in china,except porn websites.
chinese people talk politcial things all the time in forums and gave comments after policital news, and some of them critisized the government officals corruption ect,i did’t see any problems they got from cops.
if you talk about chinese afraid of post views in policial things 10 years ago, maybe that could happen, but for now, that’s really laughable! china change all the time, life and freedom are getting better and better all the time when the economy getting improving.
for some american people if you can read chinese, i suggest you go to chinese websites check by yourself, not by what western medias told you or some guys pretending to be a chinese.
You shouldn't take western media too seriously. American and European mass media is a joke. It isn't controlled by the government but most of the people who are in it couldn't do a real job...like filling a fast food order correctly. It is different from the Chinese media that is tightly controlled by the communist government. Neither yours nor ours is truthful.
A meme is an idea that propagates from mind to mind in the same way a gene propagates from cell to cell.
‘Wow, as a Chinese, you are much more “alert” than me. You really think Chinese cops or policemen would arrest you because of what you wrote just now??? I don’t think so.
Have you ever been to Tianya and posted some complaints or angers about our gov.? Seems like you haven’t.
And by the way, you may download a U89 to help you bypass YouTube, if you want.’
if you talk about chinese afraid of post views in policial things 10 years ago, maybe that could happen, but for now, that’s really laughable!
That is a great point. It is just what I was thinking when you posted that, Phoebe. We don't need special software to get around blocks to see youtube in America.
i agree with you, i have no problem to visit the CNN or FOX here in China either, if have, how i can type these words here on FR?(i am living in shenzhen,china)
So,earthykid, tell me, who are you?
we are not glad to see another DITHF here...
I pinged him for you.
