M: hi, I have a question
U: ok
U: and i will have an answer
M: when you say “I will be back in **”, do you think I should take it as a nonsense?
M: or take it as a word
U: i would take it as a word
M: last time, you said “I will be back…”, then you disappeared
U: but sometimes delays happen…sometimes situations are unavoidable
U: sorry…but life online is unpredictable at times
M: ok,
U: i do check skype at times to see if you there
M: Your apology is accepted
U: but…with work and a daughter….sometimes too busy
U: but i do look for you on skype
M: ok.
U: and really enjoy chatting with you
U: so…try to take my word….but understand when i am unable to be online when you are
M: oh,  I forgive u. you can log off now.
U: yes…i need sleep
M: sound sleep
U: but i will SEE you tomorrow
U: ok

U: hi
M: how are u?
U: thank you for the audio greeting
U: i’m fine
M: 🙂
U: and you
M: I’m ok.
M: How is my oral English?
U: was that your voice in the audio file?
M: yeah.
U: you have beautiful voice
M: It’s different with what I hear myself.
M: tks
M: It’s said that what you hear is different from your real voice.
M: I don’t know what my voice is like.
U: the english is a little slow but perfect in pronounciation
M:     
U: a very gentle and soft voice….if a flower could speak that is what it would sound like
M:         
M: tks a lot.
U: thank you…it was a nice thought of you to send such a greeting
M: welcome
M: how is your Christmas?
M: it’s gone already.
U: yeah…gone…my birthday…gone
M: your birthday is Christmas?
U: the *th
M: oh. if I say happy birthday now, it’s a little late.
U: its OK….no one remembers my birthday….its too close to christmas
U: but thank you
M: it’s said that if no one remembers your birthday, you can keep always young.
U: i will consider the audio greeting my christmas and birthday gifts…it was wonderful
M: it’s very nice of you  .
U: i loved the way you pronounced “nonsense”
M:  
U: i will try to keep my “nonsense” to a minimum
M: if I know your birthday, I will say much more.
U: its OK
M: that’s ok. I can understand.
U: you said enough to make me have a very large smile
M:   
U: the last few days I was just resting and stayed away from computer
U: feeling sort of burned-out
U: but now I am refreshed
M: that’s good.
