  i am Traci!
 
 me: Lilian, what's your major?
  
 林家豪: i'm Brian
 
  does my name change into English one?

9:09 PM maybe there are some students trying to get into it but don't know how...
 
 me: Lilina, both Traci and Brian are juniors in Foreign Languages and Applied Linguistics. They both are actively involved in their annual play which is due to put on stage in May.
 
9:10 PM cholilian: Wow!!!
 
 林家豪: yeah, if you have time, please do come to see our play
 
 cholilian: Great
 
9:11 PM frou156: :)

 林家豪: it's on may 9 and 10
 
9:14 PM cholilian: I see...
 
 林家豪: yeah, you can bring your friends or classmates to see the play~
 
 me: Lilian, since you contacted me first, is there anything that you want to tell/share?
 
9:16 PM cholilian: well...actually I wanted to tell you about my problem in logging in the chatbox...
 
  I think maybe some classmates are in trouble too
 
 frou156: ha. we have that problem too.
 
9:17 PM 林家豪: yeah, i can't log into that little chat box, either...
 
9:18 PM cholilian: Hm...
 
9:19 PM me: But how did you log in?
 
9:20 PM cholilian: I used the Google Talk to log in
 
 林家豪: i can still use google talk, but i can't use the one that in the website
 
9:21 PM me: OK, but I demoed in the class, it showed alright
 
 frou156: i used the chat box on the blog.
 
9:22 PM cholilian: I believed it works, but I tried many times ><
 
 林家豪: i can't use that...
 
9:27 PM me: But I am glad that somehow we get talking today. I think we will have to work a bit more to get it going smoothly. We will figure it out.
 
 frou156: ha.
 
 cholilian: Hm...that's good
 
9:28 PM 林家豪: I think that if we have all the others account, than we might not need that website chat box
 
9:29 PM frou156: yes. i think many others are probably online now but they don't have our accounts.
 
9:33 PM me: I think that's why Prof. Fon has said so many times that we should get one another's e-mail address. Actually, you will need a gmail account to use google talk. Now you are "logged on", you will have an easier time. And you can share your exprience--by writn on class blog and by talking to your classmates. :)
 
9:35 PM cholilian: Hmm...I got it
 
  Let me share something now
 
9:36 PM 林家豪: maybe tomorrow we can use the break time to let students who don't have a account to apply for one
 
 frou156: yes, that'd be nice.
 
 cholilian: I brought some readers books from Macau which I used when I was in senior high
 
9:37 PM me: Oh, definitely.
  
 frou156: novels?
 
 cholilian: And there is one author who wrotes very well in detective stories
 
  yes]
 
9:38 PM She is Agatha Christie
 
 frou156: ah. she is famous for writing detective stories.
 
 me: Yes, she is very famous. Did you read her alot?
 
9:39 PM cholilian: I bought 2 novels of her, but I haven't finished reading them
 
 frou156: ha, actually my mom did. i am more into fantasy stories but i am ashamed to say i've been reading very very little recently.
  .
9:40 PM cholilian: She wrote well in short stories too
 
 
9:41 PM cholilian@gmail.com has joined
 
9:42 PM 林家豪: well, i gotta go, i still have some homework to finish
 
  nice talking to you!!
 
9:43 PM cholilian: OK! See you
 
 frou156: Bye!

9:21 PM sir i am wondering if there is a transcript for the cuttle fish video
9:24 PM me: No, there is no compelte transcript. But there is a corresponding article --by the same reporter. And the article is in print, with Chinese translation, in 聯合報,Monday. they may provide sufficient information for you to understand the audico/visual version of the cuttlefish story.
9:26 PM yydiscogo: you mean this monday?
 me: yes, just two days ago.
9:27 PM yydiscogo: hm i see

9:29 PM yydiscogo: you are really an educator
9:31 PM it"s not common to see age like you to have such passion
9:34 PM thank you sir
 me: Oh, yes, we are "aged", but we are still excited about learning about new things and want you all to be able to explore and enjoy the many good things in life.
9:39 PM yydiscogo: are you always so studios since you are a student
9:43 PM me: Well, I take my life seriously. I remember trying hard to understand life and to do well (and thereby equip myself for future work), though not very efficiently or effectively. But since I tried my honest best, there is no regret.
9:45 PM Ian, I must run. See you later.
9:46 PM yydiscogo: yes nice talking to you
9:47 PM see you next time
