When I was a little kid, I thought that I would become blonde and speak perfect English automatically if I could go abroad. When I just came to US, I wondered how come American English was with such a strong accent that I could not easily understand. At that time, I did not realize it was due to my strong Chinese accent. :)
I remember one day when my friend and I went to Target to buy some gifts including Vitamins. The salesman could not understand and he asked, "What? White means? You mean, Tofu?"
Hahaha, I laughed out loud,as "V" was pronounced as "W", and "min" was pronounced as "mean", so "Vitamins" became “white means” which was misunderstood as "Tofu" . 伤不起啊伤不起!!!:)
I have been interested in accent reduction since then. I am lucky to come back to MYSJ to learn beautiful English again with so many intelligent, amazed friends here.
The following is a song with different style I usually chose. Just for fun(1?Just_4_fun 去哪啦),please close ur eyes without reading the lyrics. :)
Who Dares Wins is emblazoned across the Special Air Service's crest which features a sword bearing angel wings. The idea behind the motto is that if one has the courage and audacity to take risks, that person will succeed in life. It can also be interpreted that courage itself is its own reward.

你的四周美女有那么多, 但是好像只偏偏看中了我, 恩爱过后就不来找我, 总说你很忙没空来陪我, 你的微博里面辣妹很多, 原来我也只是其中一个, 万分难过问你为什么, 难道痴情的我不够惹火, 伤不起真的伤不起, 我想你想你想你想到昏天黑地, 电话打给你美女又在你怀里, 我恨你恨你恨你恨到心如血滴, 伤不起真的伤不起, 我算来算去算来算去算到放弃, 良心有木有你的良心狗叼走, 我恨你恨你恨你恨到彻底忘记, 漂亮的美眉你是否寂寞, 我为你这首歌, 我的被窝里没有辐射, 碘盐也不用吃很多, 不必再考虑不必再犹豫, 我要送你一辆跑车, 夜晚你和我咬耳朵, 不要怀疑我的爱很多, 你对我说伤不起, 害怕我把你抛弃, 别再考虑别再犹豫, 我只想和你在一起, 叫我一声亲爱的其他什么都别说, 然后我们吃着火锅一起唱首歌 。我刚出国时说英语也是发音不准,让人猜来猜去的。:)
like an immigrant who survives and thrives on challenges.
