[Intr] Hello everyone~

[Excelate (somebody)]

          Name:     excelate
          Nickname: Betty
          Birthday: 11 Jan 198_
          Hobbies:  Piano, movies, reading
          Occupation: medstudent doing internship in Tainan

          I was born in Taiwan, but lived in South Africa for
          about 12 years. I can't say that I speak wonderful English
          but it's relaxing to have a place where I can use it freely.

          Up until now I have spent almost half of my life in an English-
          speaking environment. It was the language I used during most
          of my studying years. It took me quite a few years before I
          could finally stop translating what I heard in Chinese to English
          and have my response translated from English to Chinese before
          I could speak it (my response in Chinese) out loud.
          (Quite a lot of trouble, huh?)

          I don't have too much time right now for casual reading (novels,
          etc) So it's pretty much down to a movie without Chinese subtitles
          now and then. I found this place while wandering around in ptt,
          and reading some of the posts made me feel happy that I found it.
          Hope to keep my English updated with every visit here :)

推 lifegetter:there is an inner self that can only be touched
→ lifegetter:through english words...and the sound of them
推 Bigfatty73:I have a question, when was humanity at its darkest
推 Bigfatty73:period of all these years that you've wisely tread
→ Bigfatty73:through?
→ Excelate:That is really... a deep and dark question XDD
→ Excelate:It got me thinking and, I finally came to the
→ Excelate:conclusion that it will take no less than few tens of
→ Excelate:lines to answer.
→ Excelate:Let me dwell a little more on a simplified reply@@
推 otterheron:I used to live in Tainan before I enter NCCU.
→ otterheron:Nice to meet you!
→ Excelate:to otterheron: Likewise :)
→ Excelate:to Bigfatty73: I wouldn't describe myself to have
→ Excelate:"wisely tread through" my teenage years XDDD
→ Excelate:There were many times when everything was so over-
→ Excelate:whelming that I just wished I didn't have to face my
→ Excelate:life and the changes that took place.
→ Excelate:But I believe (after much thought!) that it was the
→ Excelate:kind of descrimination hardly imaginable that could
→ Excelate:inscribe some very negative powers in one's heart.
→ Excelate:To me it was a response way past depression or
→ Excelate:sadness, but to actually develope rejection and
→ Excelate:distrust of the general society around you.
→ Excelate:I think that was the darkest part of my humanity
→ Excelate:which developed from the unique and strange experien-
→ Excelate:ces of my life so far.
→ Excelate:Unfortunately it might not be the most appropriate
→ Excelate:answer to your question, but it's rather difficult to
→ Excelate:pin-point any period of my life to be "darkest".
→ outofdejavu:It's good to see something different on this
→ outofdejavu:board...a sobering read...
→ outofdejavu:That's what this board lacks.....
→ outofdejavu:No offense.
→ Bigfatty73:Oh, I just took your birthday as 198 AD
→ Bigfatty73:somewhat 100 years b4 the Roman Empire .....
→ Bigfatty73:seemed like something fun at the moment...but uh..
→ Bigfatty73:I'm just gonna shut up b4 I look dumber
→ outofdejavu:I overlooked it. XDD
→ Excelate:I just realized that I misspelled "discrimination"
→ Excelate:apologies... /.\
→ Excelate:198 AD@@" Reminds me of "The Man From Earth"(2007) XD
