Hi, I’m Jesle. I have been in China for about eight months.

I’m from South Africa＊ and now I live in Shanghai.

I like the Oriental Pearl Tower＊in Shanghai. It’s so beautiful,especially＊ at night.

I love Shanghai but I also experienced＊some problems.

Tower 东方明珠塔

especially [ɪ'speʃəlɪ] 尤其

experience [ɪk'spɪərɪəns] 经历

The one thing that makes me worried＊ is the cold winter.

I don’t know how Chinese girls do it but they look cool and chic＊. I would rather look like an Eskimo＊than worry if my jeans＊ look cute on me.

Of course, it's just a small problem. I have been trying to learn a little Chinese, which has been the most difficult thing I’ve ever had to do.

Jackie Chan＊ is my favorite star. I really like his movie Rush Hour＊. It is an action＊movie. I want to meet with him and talk with him in Chinese.
