Ladies and Gentlemen, attention please!
First I'd like to thank you for your long term support and I hope I have your support all the time.  I hate to be abrupt but actually my winter vacation is around the corner. I'm gonna enjoy myself and not sure whether I can keep posting during the time. So here's the plan: I post the idioms of the days during my vacation all at once so that you can keep doing your job. Make me proud~~
