I started teaching in Shanghai in 1945. At present,I am still interested in teaching as an octogenarian. I even taught until September 7, 2007 since 2006 with six hours a day from 7 a.m. to 1 p.m. at www.Dictyon.net.

Dark chocolate can fit my healthy appetite but Swiss White Chocolate Drink from General Food serves as coffee in my taste.
