Just keep in touch, ok everyone?

WHAT I REALLY THINK ABOUT "ABC TO OFFER SHOWS VIA VIDEO - ON - DEMAND"

2008-02-27T08:42:00.000-08:00

Hannah Montana show- one of the favorite shows of Disney channel, is showed every Saturday on ABCkids.

I know that every Saturday on ABC channel, they have an ABCKids programe for children. On that programe they show some shows of Disney channel, such as: Hannah Montana, That's So Raven, The Suite life of Zack and Cody.The cooperation between ABC channel and Walt Disney Co. to release hit shows to drive the viewers back to television is really good, because it's time to have some new movies or shows which attract people on TV.From the article, the viewers can see obviously that these two companies want to have something new to satisfy their customers and they also want to make their customers more convenient in watching their new shows by showing that they have an initial agreement from Cox Communications Inc.,which has some 6 million subscribers, of which 3.1 million have digital set-top boxes that allow them to access video-on-demand services,With this agreement, everyone can believe that they will have more great shows with high quality. These things can ensure that the new hit shows of ABC channel and Walt Disney Co. will be sucessful. Furthemore, ABC channel will sell from four to nine other commercials to national advertisers, this thing implies that ABC channel is on the way to conquer their viewers. Hopefully they will succeed and give their customers more and more great shows.

MY NIECES AND NEPHEWS

2008-02-21T19:55:00.000-08:00

The one with black cap is Winnie. He is so naughty but he is so cute cute cute. My secondcousins with their mom.

I have three nieces and two nephews. The oldest is 8 years old and the youngest is just 2 months. They are all so cute and I love them a lot. My nieces and nephews have one thing in common is their appearances. They are fat. My nieces and nephews are so naughty, they always run, jump, get all the stuffs in the house out to play, and sometimes they break many stuffs (I do not like that).But they are smart and funny, too.

I still remember one time, one of my nieces came and gave me a riddle like this:"Do you know what animal wears a red T-shirt and has yellow skin, aunt?". I had been thinking a whole day and I couldn't find out the answers. You know, somtimes children just give the adults some simple riddle but the adults can't answer that, because they just guess about the complicated things . When I coudn't find the answer so I asked my nieces what that animal was, she smiled and said:"That is Winnie the Pooh bear.Why didn't you know that?You are not smart, right?". I laughed a lot and couldn't say anything.

Another time, when I was so sad because of my bad grade I'd got, my nephew came and asked me the reason why I looked so sad. I told him I'd got low grade at school. He asked:"How many grade is low, aunt?". I answered:"I'd just got 5 for my math exam, and I don't want to show my mom that grade". My nephew fondled my cheeks and said:"Don't be sad, aunt Phuong. I will draw you grade 10, so you will have a"beautiful" grade, and you give it to your mom, so you will not be sad anymore." I was laughing and felt better when I heard that naive answer from my nephew.

From that time, whenever I feel sad I just want to play and talk with my nieces and nephews who are just children and their minds are so innocent.When I play with them I feel like there is nothing to worry about, and become younger. My nieces and nephews do like to play with me, too. I can show them some games to play, tell them some fairy tales, cook dinner for them when their parents are busy working, and sleep with them.

I'm now living in America, so I can not do these things above with my nieces and nephews anymore.I miss them so so so much. In the next 5 years, when I finish my studying and go back with them, they all grow up, may be they will not need me to play game with them, or to tell them fairy tales more. But anyways, I still hope all of my nieces and nephews will grow up healthy, they will be smart, active and love each other ( and love me too ^ _^). I love you so much my beautiful nieces and my handsome nephews.

MY PERFECT LOVE

Tomorrow is Valentine's day, February, 14 .That must be an important day for all the couples in this world, the couples who love each other a lot, who always share everything with their lovers. Tomorrow must be a special day for me, eventhough I haven't had boyfriend yet, but Valentine 's Day is also the day for me to say thank you to my parents, my relatives, my friends, who have been loving, supporting and helping me a lot. I want to say "I love you" to everybody.
I have been thinking about "my perfect love" these days.I think "my pefect love" should be a good-looking guy (eventhough I'm not really pretty), he is also a romantic, honest, gentle, humorous and smart guy. I'd like my boyfriend will be a sympathized person, who can share with me everything and comfort me whenever I feel bad. And finally, my boyfriend should have his own job, I don't like a boyfriend who just likes to go out, has no job and uses his parents' money for his stuff, that kind of person is so useless because he can not even support himself how he can have a good future. May be you think why I require many things from a person like that , nobody can be perfect like that, but actually this is my thought about " my perfect love".Of course, whatever my boyfriend does to me I will do those things back to him. I will be a girlfriend who can share, talk or listen to whenever my boyfriend feels bad.And I also can be a romantic girlfriend.
In the relationship between my boyfriend and me, I think the most value is belief. Somebody said that to be jealous and to be suspect are the ways to kill your loves, so I think that belief is the most important thing in love. If my boyfriend and I believe each other, we'll never worry about our loves even if everybody says the rumors or say the bad things about us.But if my boyfriend tricks into my compliance. I will never forgive him. So, I think, in love, both of the lovers need to try to keep their love last forever.
Those things above are what I think about " my perfect love".Hopefully I can find my boyfriend soon and have many nice days with him.

THANKS FOR MRS.AZIMI. THIS ARTICLE IS REALLY MEANINGFUL TO ME

2008-02-06T08:55:00.000-08:00

I am an international student. I come to USA to study about Business, and hopfully I can get a Bachelor Degree of Business. Although I am just studying English now, whenever I think about the time I will be in College in the future, I often feel a bit stressful. My friend who has already been a student study about Financial in CSUF was so eager at her first day at school. But after a few days, she started to get trouble. She did not get all the things that her teachers talked about. Or, sometimes she felt like she was deaf. Everything her teachers talked, she could understand, but after a few minutes she forgot all, so she had to ask her classmates for many times about homework and the lectures. And now, my friend looks so tired. Everyday she has to stay up late to do homework and just sleeps a few hours a day.
From my friend, I can see that it's not easy to study in University in USA. Now, when I'm reading this article " WILL YOU SURVIVE CSUF?", it makes me feel more stressful about studying in University, but I can also see that it's totally true if I have some strategies for myself to study, my studying will be much better. For instance, time management can help me to have a good schedule between relax and study. Without time management, I cannot know what I should study today, when I have to do homework, when I can help my mother in household chores...With goal setting I can have a strong purpose to remind me of studying hard. For example, I would like to get a Bachelor Degree of Business to have a better life with high salary, and that is my goal to study hard. If I don't want to be poor, or can not buy the things I like, beautiful clothes I see , I have to work hard now, everything I am doing now is for my future. Or, art of mastery is also one of the most important strategies, it shows that how can I use my power to focus on studying.
If I can have my time management, my goal setting, my art of mastery and I can do it well. I am sure that I will suceed in studying in University in USA. Thankss for Mrs. Azimi to show me this article, which one can show me the good strateries that I should follow. I think that I will show my friend about this article, she must be happy when she read it.
