hello, everyone~ i hope it's not too late to join the conversation from now on...
i'm new to this board and am somehow interested in knowing the ppl in this area^^
maybe it's not a bad thing to introduce myself here, (instead of the one in chinese above)
i'm Sophie, a high school student who has been in canada for almost a year so far, and now i'm in gr 11. the idea mr. whatever (^_^b) suggested is just great. animation gives us dreams and brings us together to popgo so we have possibilities to talk about cartoons, comics, novels or anything we want. it's really good if we can chat in english. i mean, why not build up the language at the same time when we are having fun? isn't that even better? maybe some ppl do not need that, but they can help and lead us who do need it to step on the correct way of learning the language, like what the board master and some kindhearted ppl are doing now. But anyways, it's personal right to speak the language they want. :D
i'm also a piano player who has accomplished top grade (10) in piano exam in china. but the thing is, the certification has totally lost its use since i came here *sigh* and i have joined the choir and the band as well~~ the music teacher sucks, he always gives me too much work that i could never finish ~~ i used to be the flute player in the band, but since there're too many of them and their sound is just..... unbearable... so i quit and start to be a drummer. it's quite funny to play snare drums (jazz drums) and timpani but sometimes i just sit there and do nothing because some soft songs don't need drums at all. i also play piccolo, which is always the highest notes shrieking above the whole band, it's fun, too because u're the only one who play that in the whole bandwhich makes u important. But also gotta be very careful it's too obvious to make mistakes because of its high ,sharp sound.
hoho, that's what i want to share, to show my friendness.
btw, u guys talked about why there're so few ppl in this board, the problem i guess, is that few ppl know this place and they never comes. like me for e.g. ^^ i have known this web(popgo) for at least two years(including the time i'm in china) but everytime when i go into this web, i go directly to the main topic or download or gao qiao area but never thought of coming in here. maybe we should try to publish more ad to make here well-known, hope that works
