However, there were happy thing today!
I received a e-mail from my Chinese friend, Wang. She is my best friend, and she is a international student of our uni, but she is in China now.

And, yesterday, she sent me e-mail! (I found it this morning!)
So, today is a busy day, but I'm happy :)
Do you know Rhythm and Blues (R&B) ? This is a one of the music genre, and I like this. Rhythm and blues, often abbreviated to R&B, is a genre of popular African American music that originated in the 1940s. The term was originally used by record companies to describe recordings marketed predominantly to urban African Americans, at a time when "urbane, rocking, jazz based music with a heavy, insistent beat" was becoming more popular.
