Beautiful!

您好！我看到你在亚洲的group写的post. 我是在北京生的，可是两岁半来了美国，所以忘了好多了。 我说的，听得不错，可是不太会写字。 要是没有电脑这几个侄子我最不会自己写了，必须得用字典。 我刚在找一个人可以跟我联系写汉字，您愿意跟我写信吗？

Haha I hope that all shows up, because when I tried to post Chinese in my journal it wouldn't friggin show up. And I don't even know if some of the words are right, because I really do suck at writing. But anyway, in case it doesn't, I was born in Beijing but I came to America when I was two, so I forgot a lot. I can speak and understand fine, reading's actually okay too, but I suck at writing. If I was doing it by hand, I wouldn't have been able to write all that without a dictionary. I was just looking for someone to practice with, and there didn't seem to anyone else here from China either, so I'm glad I saw your post =)

Yay it showed up. I was going to put this in an edit but then all the characters turned into a bunch of numbers and I was afraid it would mess them up ^^;. Also, I wanted to say I've had practically no formal schooling, so I pretty much only know colloquial Chinese that may not always be grammatically correct. I don't know if all those characters are right either, since I didn't bother to look up the ones I don't recognize, but the computer usually gets it right.

Edit: dammit, just as I said that I see i wrote 'zui' instead of 'jiu' in one of the sentences, but whatever.
