Summary

Today’s expression and dialog: a poor excuse He broke up with you? Why? He said, “You’re too good for me.” Oh~ That’s a poor excuse! He has a woman!! I know~ He’s such a loser~~ I remember when I was in 7th grade--I was 13 years old--and I had taken an English test but I got a REALLY bad grade. I think it was a D! Which is about 67%~ Not good, for me. My teacher asked me, "What happened?" I told her, "I didn't have enough time to prepare." She became SO angry! I thought her head was going to explode~ She said, "That is the worst excuse I have ever heard. You were LAZY. You will NEVER become a man until you can tell the truth when you know you have done wrong." I was shocked. And...she did that in front of the other students. I was humiliated. But she was right...since then, I have done my BEST to not use "Today's Expression"! Listen and learn! Please subscribe on iTunes and get this podcast EVERY DAY!
