Our neighbour said that it was a warm winter last year, so we didn't suffer much coldness. But what I am feeling now is a cold spring, low temperature for a long time, except a couple of warm days in March. When we were in Shanghai, abnormal weather often visited it. It seems that the whole world is covered with abnormal weathers.
We have been living happily in Toronto for over a half year. All views in my eyes are so nice here, no matter it is sunny or rainy, which makes me happy for no other reasons. Toronto is really a beautiful place to live in. I have never felt more grateful, peaceful and happy. Thank god for giving us the priceless luck!

多伦多天气好热Toronto is heating up
多伦多最近好热啊,竟然达到二十多度。路上看见很多行人穿上了夏装,好像冬天过后直接步入了夏季一样。前些天的大风不再刮了,现在每天是微风习习,阳光煦暖。天气预报说,加拿大多地气温打破了上世纪七十年代的同时期最高纪录。不知道这是不是什么预兆。
无所事事的日子好悠闲。逛逛公园,感受自然的气息。蓝天碧水间,白云悠悠,鸟儿啾啾,让人心里装满了暖暖的情感。这才是人应该过的日子。

Got haircut
My sir helped me cut hair. I am very happy and satisfied with his job. In fact, he just cut my hair shorter and made the bottom-line the same long.
Then, I trimmed his hair with complete confidence and I was much a skillful barber. He is satisfied with what I did to his hair. I am satisfied too, though there is definitely a large space for me to make progress. This is the third time that I trim his hair.

乞讨者beggar
昨天傍晚出去转转。走到一家西人超市,刚进去,迎面突然出现一个青年男人。长什么样子根本没印象了,因为我没有端详陌生人面孔的习惯。他个子高高的,戴着一个长长的项链,拿着一杯咖啡,身上散发着明显的酒气,过来就熟练地对我们说,他和很多人说了,没人相信他,他要换乘公交车,然后反复地说,我在跟你们请求。我害怕他是坏人,就装聋作哑,他看没戏就奔向下一个目标了。
先生以为那人在说足球,问我那人到底是干什么的,看起来不像好人。真奇怪,有钱喝酒和咖啡的人,为什么要跟别人要钱乘公交呢。自从遇到这个怪人,我就有点不淡定了,不想再遇到他。从这家超市出来,门口竟又发现一个妇女带一个孩子,举着牌子对进出的人打招呼。平常都没有乞讨的人。难道他们和那个怪人是组团来的吗?怎么福利完善的加拿大会有要钱的人呢?他们从哪里来,晚上住哪里呢?

New life begins in Canada
We've been in Canada for one and a half months, me and my husband.
Toronto is a beautiful city. We arrived at night, so we saw no urban views on the way to family hotel. The following days were always cloudly, so every day appeared dim especially in the hotel room. We struggled to adjust ourselves to the local time. When we went out for shopping, though it was still cloudy, the overall environment made us so excited. There were full of grass and trees in my eyes. The trees were wearing different color of leaves. It was just what had seen in the films and pictures. The wind is strong but we appreciate the air here, it is clear.
Mood changed in a short time. Couple of days later, on the way we were getting back to hotel from outside, he felt lonely and upset in the evening darkness. We were on foot cause we had no driving licence, so neither a car. Though he consider himself a single hero in Shanghai, he felt lonely in the new environment with much fewer people. Though the new environment did not beat me, I could fully understand his feeling. Sometimes, in some aspect, I appears stronger than my beloved him.
People are nice here. Nearly everyone we meet here gave our great encourage, including the family hotel host, the bank manager, even a stranger... Everything in the family hotel is good, clean and tidy, warm and comfortable, except the room rates. Dozens of dollars per day is a big expense for us. And we went out to see rooms for rent. At a bus stop, when we checked the bus route, a stranger gave us a TTC map and told us how to transfer within Ontario public transportation system. We were very thankful to this strange friend! Your kindness is really a support to us.
There are Few chances to talk with people in English. The general living is so simple that you don't even need speak much while shopping or taking public transportation. Before arriving, I often think of learning some English. But now, being in Canada, I have no mood to read the English text book. Maybe I need some more time to adapt to the life here.
Life isn't easy in a new country as I had known before from other people's experiences shared online. But it cannot be worse than the very beginning--now, right?
