i was feeling all frustrated about chinese but then i learned the mandarin for "flasher" so i feel a little better now
it's 暴露狂 if you are curious
LMAO
so what's the hanzi for "diarrhea"
oh i know that you say 拉肚子
LMAO /writes down in vocab notebook
though i recently saw 泄瀉 as another word for it
i don't think it is commonly used though since it's like almost exactly the same pronunciation as "thank you"
diarrhea??
LMFLDKGJ THANKYOU
谢谢 泄瀉
HAHA YEAH though like i said i never heard it or anything i just saw it in the dictionary near xiexie
oh gosh
awkward if you misunderstand
it's said like xie4xie4 as opposed to 謝謝's xie4xie
JUST KEEP THAT LAST TONE NEUTRAL
I GUESS
but i'd be so hilarious not to
IDK I LOVE YOU, CHINESE
lmao I am spending like hours a day with it atm
it's killing me I feel like I don't understand anything
we should have that zhongwen study group
WE REALLY SHOULD where's thunderstruck
i'm using rosetta stone so i don't get totally rusty but still
i wish i had a laoshi... 
WE SHOULD DO SOMETHING like watch a romcom and talk about it afterwards or something
or even just skype and shout chinese at each other
we can do all of these things
That makes perfect sense re: flasher. DIARRHEA IS THE FIRST TERM WE LEARNED IN CHINA
my taiwanese and thai friends talked about diarrhea so casually man I was like geez
I DIDN'T THINK I'D NEED TO KNOW IT and yet
yeah we were very ???? at first
wow that's way different from diarrhea in Japanese
it actually means to pull the stomach
the Japanese means "sickness below"
