Some Good Sentences to Remember

The day before yesterday my sister drove me to Carrifer to do some shopping because there were many import foods suitable for cooking western dishes. Before that she took me to an English party held by vividclub, where my sister was studying. I was bored at the party by playing those stupid and boring games with some high school students. We left the party after staying there less than an hour. Ha, and I found shopping is far interesting than that club.

As usual, Carrifer was full of people who were just from work, doing their daily purchase. Well, it's hard, but that's the way to survive in this world. Then my sister gave a series of sitcom called "Desperate Housewives". It's already been more than 2 months since my sister joined Wall Street English, which provides her more oppotunities to practice her oral English. Obviously, she has made some progress, comparing to his past. However, she's easy to be proud of herself and sometimes too confident. I hope she know that there are still a lot of things we need to learn. Listen and learn are two important things in our whole lives.

I started to watch "Desperate Housewives" and tried to remember some good sentences. Here are some:

* I spent that day as I spent every other day, polishing the routine of my life until it gleamed with perfection.

* If there was one thing she was known for, it was her ability to look on the bright side.

* She tried to think of a reason for dropping in on me unannouced.

* For a moment, she stood motionless in her kitchen, grief-stricken by this senseless tragedy.

I found that sometimes you could totally understand the meaning of the sentence in English whereas it was difficult to translate them exactly into chinese. That's why we all need to learn.
I'm leaving for Wall Street English in an hour and will make another chiffon cake when I come back.

Ok, that's all for now. Hope I could make great progress in my English.
