http://amysworldtrip.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
To be aware of a single shortcoming within oneself is more useful than to be aware of a thousand in somebody else. His Holiness the XIV Dalai Lama. Wednesday, November 05, 2008. On the way, Mario saw this car and asked me if i'd seen one like it before. It was an Infiniti SUV, I said yeah we have em in the US. That was that. Well, as I was discussing the translation job, mario came back from the recording, in the Infiniti SUV we had seen on the way! But that's not the most ironic part! My You Tube Videos.

When a Chinese student is asked to analyze…. Since then, I’ve learned to teach to their culture a bit more. Now, I’ll teach them how to analyze something step by step. Pointing out the 3 or 4 parts that brought me to my conclusions and letting them make the obvious connections. Was that the obvious conclusion for clean water? I menti...

http://amysworldtrip.blogspot.com/2009/04/chaoshan-women-and-feminism.html
To be aware of a single shortcoming within oneself is more useful than to be aware of a thousand in somebody else. His Holiness the XIV Dalai Lama. Wednesday, April 01, 2009. Chaoshan women and Feminism. What's your definition of feminism? One common definition is being in favor of and working towards equal treatment of men and women. I knew that this is the traditional view, but I'd never encountered someone who had internalized it so much as to write a whole essay about it. Will my friends here really ...

To be aware of a single shortcoming within oneself is more useful than to be aware of a thousand in somebody else. His Holiness the XIV Dalai Lama. Sunday, December 14, 2008. An American’s opinion of the Salvadoran civil war. Take it for what it’s worth. This is my opinion of events I didn’t live through, only heard about. Is it really only the richest 5 % of the population? So what’s my opinion about US funds in the 80s? This political system is totally different from mine, I need a lot more information...

The pursuit of happiness. We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.

Amy's World Trip: Skyscraper or Skycrapper?
http://amysworldtrip.blogspot.com/2008/12/skyscraper-or-skycrapper.html
To be aware of a single shortcoming within oneself is more useful than to be aware of a thousand in somebody else. His Holiness the XIV Dalai Lama. Friday, December 26, 2008. So, this is the story of a poor Salvadoran boy who was taught at some point that those tall buildings are called Sky crapper. Today we were sitting waiting for a bus, and for some reason I said skyscraper. Mario said, why are they called sky crappers? What, do people crap out of them in the US? That's the best mistake ever!
