Maybe this year is not a good year to get married, but it IS a good year to have (dragon) babies, right? :-)

I'm also a 左撇子 and many Chinese commented on that when I was in China. I even got the feeling they were more surprised about me being a 左撇子 than me being able to write (not very beautiful, I must admit) Chinese characters!

I still vividly remember my trip to Yunnan seven years ago. It was winter and I got sick, and I felt so cold in the no-central heating youth hostel! After days of puking, I was happy to go back to 'warm' Beijing...

A lesson about 给 that even teaches (upper) intermediate learners something new, well done!
