Kathy, I'd love to answer your question, but I am afraid Tim will beat me to death.

Present tense or Past Tense?
Eh...just curious, should we tell our stories in present tense or past tense? When I was learning English (and I still am :D), I was taught that whenever you are describing something, it's better to do it in present tense unless time is important in the story you are telling. Could any expert comment on this? Thanks!

Hey enigma,long time no see. Thank you for your sharing again.
以前我們老師是說當不曉得用過去式比較好或現在式比較好就全部用過去式. (奇怪每次一討論後總覺得自己又學到了一些新東西是我以前所沒聽過,沒注意到的. 現在存在我腦海中的觀念又要重新建構了.)謝謝.

Just say whatever you want to say. Tim Note: For those who are also interested in this thread, you can search for either "indirect speech" or "reported speech" on the Net and then chip in with your findings.

Thank you, Tim. I won't give up learning English!
A website teacher from England taught me that "The verb should be in the past tense, "had", in keeping with the rest of the sentence."
