Hi Blissers,

The host, Ellen, shared a meaningful book" What money can't buy" on 5/18 meeting. The writer is the famous professor of Harvard University, Michael J. Sandel. He teaches a course "Justice" at Harvard University and it has become one of the most popular courses since 1980. We discussed our surroundings corresponding to this book. More and more things in this current society are viewed as merchandised product and less and less morality. Money could not use to evaluate things, but it can now. You could donate the money and gain the permission to school. We also can see the ticket scalping for the train ticket and concerts; or you could pay more to the hospital for better caring and surgery. However, do you agree with these things? We had a debate to agree or disagree. During this meeting, we were inspired about the self awareness and society justice. Thank you, Ellen!

Attandance: Ellen, Selina, Naishin, Annie, Wisely, Karl, Kurt, Daniel, Vicky, Ann, Barkley, Serina, Jessica, Judith, Stanley, Archer, Kevin Huang

TOPIC: Learning Experiences

Dear Blissers,

For the 1st, You don't know how to cook and really want to have a try. I will share you my experience in cooking. Hope you can cook someday.
For the 2nd and 3rd, Do you ever feel confused by English words that seem very similar?

Some common mistakes we might know but we did them often. For example in this short conversation, there are few mistakes in it. Could you find it out

A: Do you exercise when you're sick?
B: Yes, I usually do. Even if I'm feeling sick, I'll go outside and run.
It usually makes me feel better. How about you.
A: How to say that? Well, when I'm sick, I like to rest. But I'm feeling fine today.
B: Well, then let's go get some exercise!
A: OK. Let's go for a bike ride an hour later.
B: Sure! See you later.

Would you like to learn some idioms and popular English phrases so your English will sound more natural? I also share some for you guys.

Have a good day,
Kevin
