You Have No Idea How Many Shows I've Been Watching These Days

,

Since when watching American TV shows becomes part of my job? Oh, I guess it was two months ago, when I started the Westernizer project :rolleyes:

Honestly speaking, I did watch a lot of American TV shows before the Westernizer get started, but I was just kind of seeing it as a excellent way to learn English, therefore most shows I watched were something like reality show (Survior, The Amazing Race, America's Next Top Model ...), sitcom (Friends, How I Met Your Mother, Two & a Half Men, The Office ...), and some cartoon (South Park, Family Guy ...), but rarely watching drama since it takes 40 something minutes to see one episode and the English in drama is a bit difficult to catch (well, at least more difficult than sitcom and reality show IMHO). And I rarely didn't watch medic shows before due to the rule of watching I made up myself which was that no subtitle was allowed while watching American TV shows, as a result medic drama was eventually way out of my capability (I mean, think about how many medic slang in these kind of show!). And (so many ands), I rarely watched science fiction shows either.

Everything changed since I started Westernizer. Since I started editing a American TV show-themed magazine, it's a must for me to know about all these shows, and the best way to know a TV show is, without question, watching it. What's more, in order to watch medic shows, the rule of no subtitle was officially abandoned.

So, the crazy watching action begins ...

As a result, in the past two months, I've been watching many many shows, the following list is just a unfinished one: House Season 1,2,3, Grey's Anatomy Season 1,2,3, Battlestar Galactica Miniseries & Season 1, Heroes, Ugly Betty ...... really huge amounts. But I got well pay back, I feel much easier when editing the magazine(Westernizer), and find myself have more and more insight and inspiration :smile: This is so damn good :D

And now, the editing precess of the 3rd volume of Westernizer is underway, and it's expected to release on 28 December. Hopefully this volume can reach the level that we never did cause we've contribute so much energy on it and more and more people come together to help us. This is amazing. Westernizer is very hot now and it's only getting hotter, we have a bright future, and we believe we can succeed.

Just a few hours ago,I was busy in writting my CET 6 answer sheet.
I really admire your Fluently english. About two month ago, a link in the opera.com take me to your blog here Incidentally. And i am interested in your Westernizer project very much.

I think next year ,at the beginning of a new semester ,i will have a lot of spare time ,if you wish,i want to do some thing for the project follow you.

By the way, i majored in international economic and trade in nanchang university,but i am interested in the computer scince and design. I have been the Charge of a website of my university,i am good at ASP programmingbut a starter of ASP.NET and i have two years experience of use Photoshop. so i knew some thing about Graphic Design ,although it is not professional. recenttly,in order to make something to mark a visit to my teacher with my classmate,i find the electronic magazine is a good form. So,i started my electronic magazine design.

like every thing the intetnet bring to me ,such as programming, Graphic Design and electronic magazine make my life colorful, and make me different with my classmate. I often help my friends to deal with their problem in computer, because they take me as their expert.

I am sorry ,I must to shut down my computer now,because the electrocity supply will be cutted.
