Mr. Zhou: Back from Ace English Salon

　　A small world
　　
　　I"m back from ace english salon, very excited, having met and talked with many old friends, among them are Jack, one of my former classmates, and Jason,one of my former students, and both of them are teaching in college. When Jason and I caught sight of each other, we both feel pleasantly surprised, for neither of us had expected to meet each other again after four to five year"s absence.
　　
　　
　　Three Michaels
　　
　　Three Michaels turned up this evening at Ace english salon. Whenever a gentleman arrived, I asked, "Are you Michael?" Three answered "yes". Another qestion I asked for three Michaels was "are you the person who sent me emails containing photos of couchsurfing in Nepal?" Only the third Michael said "yes".
　　
　　
　　Zack & Michael
　　Advocates and practictioner of couchsurfing, Zack and Michael shared many stories and offered many useful tips for those who are interested and eager to try. As Zack said, there are more good than evil in this world, and risks are involved in everything we do. Open our homes, Open our hearts, and Open our lives. It is no so hard as we used to imagine. Couch surfing can be a great save of time, and more importantly it povide people with opportunities for cultural exchange in the real sense.
　　
　　
　　A New Projector
　　Last friday, the old projector did not cooperate well, so i decided to replace it with a new one, which I bought this afternoon. Small and smart, it works perfect with photo display, but there are some problems with videos. Maybe i need to do more adjustment and experiment so that it can work best for Ace english salon.
　　
　　
　　Great Suggestions
　　At the end of today"s salon, I received a number of valuable suggestions. "Why not open your salon on weekdays so that i can come and enjoy the great envienment of language learning and access to the internet too." Second Michael suggested, "Once a week is far from enough, and maybe we need to hold more activities within every week", bluebird proposed. There were other good suggestions too. Ace english salon is improving, just because we are all ears for the voices and oppions of our salon participants.
