My name's Finn, 我的中文名字是方安,自己取的名字 – 你们喜欢吗?我是土生土长的英国人,但也会讲点中文,很高兴认识大家!
This is my first time writing this blog for the BBC, I hope you like it and learn some useful English words and phrases. I'm looking forward to meeting lots of new friends here.
Actually, today I am in a good mood, 我的心情很好… as I've just celebrated my birthday. I'm in a good mood because my birthday party was a lot of fun – not because I'm getting older!
看起来好吃吗?你们说哪一个最好吃? 其实我应该承认这些不是我的蛋糕,我下次再给你们看我的蛋糕。
Before you ask, I'm not going to tell you how old I am!
But maybe you can guess? 大家猜得出来我的年龄吗?请发评论告诉我! Here's a clue – I'm older than I look in this picture!
I'll give you another clue in my next post. I'll also add some pictures from my birthday party.
I think some people really look forward to their birthday – they enjoy meeting friends, eating cake , being the centre of attention (大家注意的对象) and having a good birthday bash (another word for celebration). Other people are depressed that they are losing their youth .
What about you? Do you look forward to your birthday? How do you celebrate it? 我很想知道你们怎么过生日 – 尽量用英文写给我!
