May 31, 2008 at 3:08 PMI am a beginner (4 months), too. Many here like Auntie & Chanye have so many helpful things to say that it would be a shame to slow them down. I keep two sites open on other windows while I go through my lessons here (see below). Maybe they will help you.

May 31, 2008 at 1:12 PMI enjoyed Jenny's picture and comments about small bites being used for bbq...a new concept for a Texan like me. These family bbq's I saw in China: small grills and a variety of meats from lamb and chicken to squid. The long sticks used for the skewers were so logical but uncommon here!

I think you have to teach what is used in real situations or we will sound like simpletons in the real world. Teaching about basketball, pool, KTV's, restaurants in different cities are all dynamic lessons. I will use up my week "freebee" and then, join. You have good ideas and good people to support them. This is a big improvement over beauty pagents and movie reviews in my opinion.

June 4, 2008 at 1:29 AMI have heard it is expensive and also about the nose surgeries performed in Korea. Perhaps we will also have a lesson on Korean food to compliment this one. I would also love to hear more. Good lessons probably always leave you that way.
