December 21, 2009, 04:16 AM你好Mary,
Hope you had a great 周末！
Wow, 你写得非常好！！
但是这句话”为时已晚我到家“ 可以这样说：
我到家以后已经太晚了。
我也祝你和你的家人 圣诞快乐！:)
Oh, by the way (顺便说一下)， 12月31号 （your time）我们不上班，因为是 “元旦”。所以我们1月7号才可以上课哦。

谢谢您！今天我开始课 "Do I look good in this?.
I have a question--in the vocabulary the word 老is given. Can this be used to describe clothing or should 旧 be used? Would "new clothes" be 新衣服？
I am looking forward to our next conversation! 谢谢您！

The word 老 can also be used to describe clothing, but just for old styles. For example，
这件衣服的款式（kuan3shi4=style）很老。
旧 is used to describe clothing itself is not new anymore.
对，new clothes = 新衣服。
Hope that makes sense!
Helen :)
