Aww I love Chinese proverbs.

Was watching an episode of Roommate where Dongwook and Seho are teaching Joon Hyung and Ryohei Korean proverbs. Realised how similar they are with Chinese ones and I'm so happy I can recall some of the common proverbs/idioms we used to quote multiple times in every 作文.

Omg, and that particular proverb that I recalled was this:
亡羊补牢,未为迟也。
(I actually only remembered the first part, and only after googling did I get the second part)

OMG I really love Chinese and am appreciating the language. All those years of not touching it has made my memory rusty but I'm still so surprised that I can remember things like that. Maybe I'm naturally gifted :B

And I really love this line that I always use in my concluding paragraph:
一言以蔽之

It's such a beautiful phrase isn't it?

I wish there's a way for me to learn/brush up my chinese again. Times like this, I'm appreciative of Singapore's bilingual policy. :)
