requested by KRISTY35796, jeremyeo, joe from imeem, miszlalathor, experimage, kwazy89, hello73kittyblue, Zorran202--------------------------------------------... i'm not thai.... and "thai" is really my last name.please check my profile page to find out my ethnicity if you are so inclined to do so... thanks! joisia! mm goi sai!--------------------------------------------translation for the intro:Hello everyone.. my name is Olivia. I'm from Los Angeles, California. I am diojiu!Diojiu, also known as Chiu Chow or Teo Chow is a province in China. It is a language that is fairly similar to Taiwanese, but it is in no way related to Taiwanese... It is not Cantonese nor is it Mandarin. However, I do speak those languages as well... as seen in some of my other videos :)To add even more about "the" Chinese language... Mandarin, Cantonese, Diojiu, Taiwanese, Fokkien, Hokkien, etc. - they are all different LANGUAGES, not dialects. They are all rooted with Chinese writing, but they are completely different languages. You don't hear people calling Spanish and French DIALECTS of Latin - they are LANGUAGES. I don't understand why people like to put labels on subjects they know nothing about.--------------------------------------------... anyways...long time no sing!! ... sorry everyone! i've been moving, and now i don't live in a living room with four people anymore!! yay!! i miss the roommates though... :/i just caught a cold, but i felt like doing a video anyway. :)thanks for watching, subscribing, commenting, and rating!!!!- olivia--------------------------------------------please add me on myspace if you have one!! :)http://www.myspace.com/oliviathai--------------------------------------------also, if you are diojiu and would like to participate in the Diojiu Visibility Project, please visit this link: http://gaginang.org/content/index.php?p=48have fun!! bye bye!-by the way, it's just youtube, people. calm down.
