    I have heard that but I don't speak Mandarin that well so I'm not sure if I should use it or not...lol:o: at least I don't think Cantonese 小姐 siuje is offensive. :o:

    I have had a go at learning Japanese and I think it's very interesting, there are so many verb conjugations and then as you said there are several different ways of reading it. >_<

    What's so good about BBCs? :eek:
    Hey...that's what I thought as well! In Cantonese, 小姐 wouldn't be considered offensive.

    I want to learn Japanese so bad! I just wish that I could read it.

    Well...I doubt I'll be able to learn Japanese and immerse in it if I were in a Japanese thread. However...I would like to join the thread.

    Oh...well...I personally think Nike or Adidas would be better choices.

    I had Reebok accessories before...but I thought it wasn't that comfortable.

    Therefore, I went for Nike or Adidas accessories, though I have a better preference for Adidas. :p:

    I also like the slogan for Adidas: 沒有不可能.

    I also think that sporting accessories from 李寧 are pretty good as well.

    I used swimming apparels from 英發...and it's pretty durable and comfortable.

    李宁。。。There're now many Chinese brands, but i dislike them...
    The design is too bad, looks funny, 英发? never heard that brand.
    The Chinese sports brands r now in the primary period.
    I'll buy more casual clothes later.

    Well...there are many Chinese brands...but I guess they are fine.

    英發...I guess you should go to this website: http://yingfa-china.com/. It's in English though. It is a brand name for swimmers that can be found in UK, Germany Spain, Australia, and obviously China.

    You can also check this website: http://www.yingfa.com.au/

    It focus on Swimming accessory, that'll make it more professional, great
    Maybe that's another export-oriented company, cuz i've never heared this brand in China... otherwise, maybe i just focus on the basketball accessories.
    Double Happiness is the world-class Ping Pang(Table Tennis) brand that i prefer.

    Hey, guy, maybe it's late now in Canada? You always stay up late?
