Okay, so, Chinese homework. What the hell kind of question is this?

Nǐ juéde Zhōngguórén zuì xǐhuān shénme yánse?

("What color do you think Chinese people like best?")

... Seriously. What the fuck?

Also, having my blinds open is fun. I get to watch the construction across the street (although not today, possibly because of the rain) and also see how badly people drive when it's wet out, which, hi, people, you live in Houston, you should maybe get used to driving in wet weather sometime soon.

Edit: First person of Chinese descent to tell me their favorite color gets it written down as what color I think Chinese people like best. Because, hey, at least one Chinese person likes it best, right?

I think you should look up some completely obscure color. Why, I think they tend to like that special shade of seafoam green that, in the right light, edges toward slate blue best, of course.

:D

Dude. GREEN. *laughs*

Though, in all honesty, it's probably red or gold. *snrk*

I thought red would probably be a safe answer, and also one of the very few colors I actually know the character for, which is good because writing pinyin on my homework makes me feel vaguely inferior. But I'm putting green now. *nods*

*laughs* Aww~ Well, I'm sorry if most people put red. ^^;; You can represent us minority Chinese people. XD;;;

Red - luckiness. Don't put white, it's the colour of funerals...

I will be special. And my prof will think I am weird.

That would be because florahart is teh awesome and whatnot. And also because, during my various brief forays into the depths of fandom, one of the only people whose fic I will read based solely on who wrote it.

*laughs* Rock on. ROCK ON. XD XD And professor? Pffft. Green should've been the Chinese color to begin with. ;D
