I'm very interested in this matter. I knew a lot of extra information about " How the president of the United States is elected. " Actually, we can talk about the constitution first, it's a process of selecting. There are many times have been added over the years. Do you know the requirement for the president in United States ? People who will become a new president in the U.S must be at least 35 years old, must be native - born citizens of the U.S, and they must have been residents of the US for at least 14 years. We've already known about this. In the United States, they have an election every 4 years, and the maximum for each president is 2 times. It started by one person who was the president of United States many years ago. He was elected 4 times, after that people who live in the U.S don't want this to happen again anymore. As a result, they put some rules for it. McCain and Barack Obama are opposite clique. If McCain is president for the next term, it will be happen a war again. If Barack Obama is the next person, people will have a peace life. Just imagie you are citizen person in United States, what person will you vote ?
We'll know the answer on the first Tuesday in November. Please waiting for the most interesting thing in the U.S.

Ooh...

Everybody's got something they had to leave behind
One regret from yesterday that just seems to grow with time
There's no use looking back or wondering (or wondering)
How it could be now or neither been (or neither been)
All this I know but still I can't find ways to let you go

Chorus
I never had a dream come true
Till that day that I found you
Even though I pretend that I've moved on
You'll always be my baby
I never found the words to say
You're the one I think about each day
And I know no matter where love takes me to
A part of me will always be with you

Somewhere in my memory
I lost all sense of time
Amd tomorrow can never be
'Cause yesterday is all that fills my mind
There's no use looking back or wondering
How it should be now or neither been (or neither been)
Oh this I know but still I can't find ways to let you go

Chorus

You'll always be the dream that fills my head
(Yes you will, say you will, you know you will, baby)
You'll always be the one I know (I'll never forget)
There's no use looking back or wondering (or wondering)
Because love is a strange and funny thing
No matter how I try and try
I just can't say goodbye
No no no no

Chorus

A part of me will always be with you...

Hiding from the rain and snow
Trying to forget but I won't let go
Looking at a crowded street
Listening to my own heart beat

So many people all around the world
Tell me where do I find someone like you girl

(Chorus)
Take me to your heart take me to your soul
Give me your hand before I'm old
Show me what love is - haven't got a clue
Show me that wonders can be true

They say nothing lasts forever
We're only here today
Love is now or never
Bring me far away

Take me to your heart take me to your soul
Give me your hand and hold me
Show me what love is - be my guiding star
It's easy take me to your heart

Standing on a mountain high
Looking at the moon through a clear blue sky
I should go and see some friends
But they don't really comprehend

Don't need too much talking without saying anything
All I need is someone who makes me wanna sing
(Chorus)

It's a very very sweet song. Tell us about love. Who need love? Everybody needs it for the life.

My thinking when I came to the US ...

Welcome to my blog. My name is Jerry. I'm studying at Seattle Central Community College where is a nice place near downtown Seattle. During my study in Seattle, I recognized many things which is useful for my life. At the first time when I came to the US, I can't hear anything by native speaker or watch TV show. Maybe the reason is they speak so fast. Specially, I tried my best and try to understand what they said and thinking. It's really interesting when I could communicate with them easier after few months. Amercian people are friendly, close to other people and always make a lot of funny stories. All of them are very strange for me, I thought that is probably a new culture, and I have to get used to with it. My purpose or what is the best thing I want to do is study. I want to get more and more knowledge and develop my English skills faster than usual. Teachers and friends also influence so much to me, I improved my listening and speaking English skills when I communicated with them. They helped me a lot and supporting to me many useful things to do my study well. In addition, I want to talk about my parents who supported me an opportunity to go to the US. They gave me a chance to go outside and getting more knowledge for my life. I wanna give a thank to all of the people who are my teacher, my friends and my family.
