Darn it. A222222 beat me to the first comment!

I wasn't sure if this was a mom and daughter team... but the first commenter confirmed my suspicion.  What a unique team!

I went ahead and made a Quizlet for this lesson's vocabulary.  https://quizlet.com/_4z9v3x 

I added 2 words that were not on the vocabulary list though but they went over them at the end of the lesson: 调到 and 占 which was pretty helpful explanation.

However, something is off... I think the spoken dialogue does not quite fit the written dialogue.  I think there was a mix up somewhere and the last line was never said in the audio version.

But a great job Grace and Grace's mom!

Are these the new hosts or hostesses?  

Great first video. Tough topic though.  

Welcome aboard and I'm sure we all hope you will be successful and the community will welcome you!

Great lesson.  So you can say 等一下 or you can say it faster dropping the 一 as 等下。 Correct?

I know the jiu yao yao...but which character is the YAO?

Great lessons and great vocab.  The pigeon phrase is one I have to poke fun at my Chinese friends about.  Or translate into English and put it into context.  They will die laughing.  

"I can't believe you had me release pigeons... I was waiting for 1 hour. Next time don't make me release pigeons!"

Like one student used to jokingly tell me "If you do that I will give you colors to see see." 给你颜色看看!(meaning to hit me.)
