Now whenever I hear of a friend who's lost a loved one, I no longer call with the polite offer, "If there's anything I can do…" Instead I try to think of one specific task that suits that man's need, like taking the dog to the boarding kennel, or house sitting during the funeral.

现在，每当我听到朋友失去亲人，我不再打电话礼貌地提出“如果有什么我能做的……”相反，我试图想出一个特定的适合那人需要的任务，如带狗去寄宿养犬处，或在葬礼时看房子。

You say I have changed, I admit it. I'm just not sticking to you like I did before. It's only because I can't waste my love on the one who has never loved me.

你说我变了，我承认。我只是没有像以前那样对你死缠烂打。因为，我不能为了一个没爱过我的人浪费感情。

I loved my experience in China during the Olympics, but I'm not planning on going again soon. I'd like to visit SHANGHAI one day.

我非常非常珍惜自己奥运会期间在中国的那段经历。但短期内我还不打算再次去中国。有朝一日，我想我会更想去上海。
