This blog is partly devoted to the sharing of my learning of the English language (my well mastered mother tongue is Chinese and I am not an English teacher) and its *cultures*, partly to the current significant trends in Canada and in the world, and partly to my own random thoughts and little life. I am not religious, but I am somewhat interested in Christianity and Buddhism, among other personal interests. Welcome. And, have a good day.

An acquaintance of mine told me that in Portugal, some city people still have a live-in maid in their houses. And those maids are typically uneducated peasant girls from the countryside.
Essentially, it appears like Portugal still has some sort of two-tier system, the upper tier is its city residents, the lower one its country residents.
So it seems that in that aspect, that part of Europe is very much like China. And, the North America is more equitable than that part of Europe.

Apple is a classic case of how a company can win girls' hearts. Take the example of its Macbook laptops, they are very thin, smooth, and maybe most importantly, free from the necessity for people to acquire technical knowledge about computers in order to maintain them.
You can see myriads and myriads of girls who bear Macbooks around. Many of those girls would rather pay premium prices for Mac computers and yet buy some other stuff from cheap dollar stores.
