Pier, good morning! I believe the sunshine are beautiful in the coast city, right?
Travelling is the most wonderful way to live life maybe! You're right. It enable us to be confident, and brave! Next vacation, I'm going to visit Hangzhou, Shanghai!
Do take some pictures and sent me, ok? :-)
You wrote book? That's a good news. Is it written in English? Portuguese? Chinese?
What is it about? I look forward to it. :D
The summer vacation is over. The new school year has started today! To tell you the truth, I am still lost myself in the summer break! I can't believe it's already autumn here with the weather cooler! :P
I send the pictures I took in Beijing. Follow me and enjoy the sceneries.:)

Hi, Pier!
I'm sorry for keeping you waiting. Now I'm coming home. A little bit tired after the travel.
How did you go to Fortaleza? By plane or by train? Or more bravely by car? haha...
Did you feel tired?
Tell you what, I spent 38 hours in the train, two nights and one daytime. You may wonder why don't I take a faster one or fly there. First, unfortunately I had my train ticket booked late. Second, taking a train is more economical. More importantly, I could meet new people and appreciated different sceneries along the way since the train passed many stations, people left and boarded, the sky changed. To me it's interesting to hear people speak different languages and from different places to different destinations.
I never travel to a place so far. My family worried but still supported the idea. I feel so lucky because I know some of my friends are not allowed since their families concerned about their safety, especially as girls.
But things turned out to be the opposite situation, people were nice, willing to give a hand when I was in need.
I offered to help a boy with his luggage as he got off the train, which he gave me a big smile, so pure and true. At that moment I got a call from my friend,telling me not to talk to strangers, dangerous. Maybe I was born under the lucky star or maybe the media has a bad influence on her, which always telling bad news about the outside world, or maybe it's my own problem, lacking experiences of meeting bad guys. hahah, anyway I had a pleasant journey and am back home safe.
How are you friends? Are there anything happened during your traveling?
I choose this name for you : 李明哲Lǐ míngzhé
“李”is the family name, sounds like Lee
“明哲”its literal meaning is "understand philosophy"
Chinese attach importance in virtue when they think of a name.
What do you think of this name? Do you like it? I hope I don't disppoint you. : )
Have a nice day, Pier!
miss you too!

Bonjour, Pier! It's getting dark here! Hope you have a nice day!
I agree with you to use English first.
well, about the use of"DE",的，right? It has a similar function of"of" in English.
For example, 我的书“books of mine".
Or you can say "my books".
Here some exercises for you to practice:
我的爸爸——my father or father of mine
他的爸爸——his father or father of his
汤姆的爸爸——Tom's father or father of Tom
You might recite them and then pay attention to this word when you are doing your Chinses reading.
Hope this helps!
My QQ's number is 1173380165. If you downloaded the software, find me through this number.
How many countries have you ever been to?
Never miss Beijing if you travel to China. I plan to go to Beijing this summer vacation. I wanna visit Great Wall, the Water Cube,National Gymnasium... I can't wait!!
Well, we usually take a little nap in the noon before we go to school or work. Because after the rest, we could do more efficiently in our work. Do you people have this habit?
( ^_^ )/~~拜拜
Helen
It's ok with me. I understand. Just kind of miss you.haha...
To be honest, I'm a person who is always afraid of losing friends either because there is something ever happened in my life or now. I'm afraid of doing someting wrong to hurt my friends. If I don't realize it, please tell me, ok?
I have many friends, but only a few I could talk my feelings to. I haven't met my friends for half a year but still we would call each other to see if everyone is doing fine. In some way, their supports and encouragement have a great impact on my self-esteem and life path.So I'm thankful to you, and your great encouraging words to me.
Today I am kind of sentimental!! hahah....
Oh, I have forgot to answer the question you asked me in one message, it's about love. Well,I haven't found the guy that really loves me. So I'm in a professional moment.
I wish everthing goes well with you. And take care, my friend!
All my best!
Helen
Hi Helen

They are gonna work with us because of the callcenter and I stayed with then all day long and I arrived too late on home, so today saturday, I get up very late and I remembered that I had to take my car to wash it!
Unfortunatelly I have this wrong habit to do things in a very lazy way ! haha
My dear friend let me tell you something !
I also have this situation about friends,
You are doing nothing wrong with our friendship I will sing a song for you, you deserve this !
Please be honest with me, I know that I am not a perfect person but things that I respect which one of them is your culture makes me be honest even if I am gonna be punished for that!
I think I can help you to think in a diferent way, put never give up , trust in your feelings You are the only one to correct them, so it's normal you change but before this , we suffer a little because we are amused to act in one way but now the life ask us to live in other way!
Please tell me more about your fellings!
You know , when I talked about the moment, is about present time been affected for something that happened a time ago.
ABout western structure of say situations can you show an examplet It would be better to explian!
You know, I am in 40 years and things along the time happened to me...one situation that change my life was my father's death on october 24 2010. He was 84 yrs and I still miss him but not because we were living together, but because he was an example of honesty, a worker and responsability! thing that I took time to be !
Unfotunatelly in the western world, chaos is the reality! we get confused for things that are ilusions! Sometimes we fight for things that aren't the priority of living, that's why I told you that sometimes we need first to look forward and search all the possiblities and then, you will realize that you're not so wrong as you thought!
I wish I could talk more about this...
What is happening now in your life?
Have you been with a boyfriend?
Sorry cannot talk to you today tomorrow I will try again !!
take care dear!
your friend Pier
Hi, Pier.
I intended to talk with you a lot of things but unfortunatly my English held me back. I thought that I should just resort to writing because it would be better for me! How I wish I could talk natuarlly!!
My father is a responsible and kind person but he seldom talks. He works very hard everyday. Even if he comes back home from work, he always kept him busy fixing machines. I would always said to him:" Dad, why don't have a rest? You've working all day long. It's not good to your health." " Well, working is fun. Life is work and work is life." My dad said. Work is fun?How could it be? I suspect.... But later I understood everything he did was for us good. I guess he believe our happiness is his happiness. Back to about 7 years ago, I misunderstood him and began hating him for not spending more time with us. But everytime I got sick, he would go back home right away and accompany me till I recovered! Before that, I didn't care his feelings and saw him as a stranger. Now I've regret my wrongdoing. Now we talk much than before. I would be very happy when he laughes and told me what happen around him.
I didn't have a boyfriend before. I didn't dare to try because I might not be able to focus on my study. I talked with a boy in senior high over the winter holiday. When he tried to ask me out, then I realized I didn't love him. I treated him just as friend. Then one day he asked me if I could be his girlfriend. I texted back to tell him" you could find a girl who is better than me". I don't want to pretend that I love him. If so, I don't respect him and myself. Love should come from both sides. That's how the relationship ends. But I felt I've done the right thing.
Now my life is full of dreams, dreaming to find a good job, making more friends, going on a journey, finishing my school well.... I'm gonna to visualize them. I need some encourage.
bye！

Hi Friend!
Well I must say that you are in the right age to look forward!
Brazil are in a commercial agreement with China so I meet two companies wich are Huawey and ZTE and there are chineses working, but they don't talk to us because they work hard separatedly...So I knew that they spend 6 months here in Brazil then go back to China.
One of them commented with a colleague of mine that they feared about lose his job because of China have a lot of people qualificated wich here is different...So first you have to get a good job but I don't know how much will be the pressure if something goes wrong, but if you have vacations, try one day to visit the opposite side wich are the Americas. Maybe one day! Or if you get a job, with your english you can visit places around the world including Brazil !
This pressure to work hard exist in Europe, USA, Russia, places called first world. Here Brazil unfortunatelly or in Central and South America we have the pressure on qualification but also the pressure because of few oportunities wich pays well.
So I think is complex to write all about this theme, but keep going, you are intelligent, curious, smart, beautifull.
Even as a writer, I think you will be great! your english is very well! Maybe if you write a novel about globalization and China...
Well dear, who knows if one day you can come here on bussiness?
I wish you well in your exams
I wait your letter, I wish could hear you closer but the most important is you get a succesfull career then you will get the other things!
send me news
wait your letter
take care dear!
