在土豆网，上传视频真有趣，能得到分数的。真分数叫“豆花”。得到越多的豆花，就能升级。我注册时没管什么豆花不豆花的。可是开始用我刚开的土豆网户口时就感到奇怪……为什么不能改变模版主题，但看到别的土豆用者却能。
There is a points system in tudou.com, my alternative website to youtube.com for uploading my weekly videos. I didn’t care much about the points because I just wanted to have an account accessible to China for my videos. However I found it strange that after I signed up for an account, I couldn’t find a way to change my channel template. Yet other users could.
上传了几个视频后，升到了2级，土豆就在我个人主页上发言“恭喜！你已经晋升豆花 2 级啦，可以开始使用《模版主题》。”哦！那时候我就高兴了，把主题改好看点的。
After uploading a few videos, I gained enough points and was promoted to “Level 2”. Tudou displayed a message saying “congratulations! You can now personalise your template.” Ah…. that’s good. Now I’m happy.
到了第3级它又说“恭喜！你已经晋升豆花 3 级啦，可以开始使用《视频日历》。”那个我就没管。我要那个干么？可能是我中文不太好，看不懂它的用处，觉得应该是什么没用的东西吧。
At level 3, they told me I could use some kind of Calender. Why in the world would I need that? LOL ok ok, maybe because I can’t understand the chinese characters I am reading, and I think it is some useless item.
可是最近又到了第4级……它就说“恭喜！你已经晋升豆花 4 级啦，将获得一次《晋级大乐透》机会，快来试试手气吧！”我再次又只看懂50%的字，迷迷糊糊的。算了，点击看看吧。
But when I reached level 4, tudou congratulated me again saying I have a chance at something (which I could only read 50% of, and did not know what it meant). Whatever. I’ll just click on it and give it a shot.
看起来像个卡片游戏，原来是个幸运抽奖哦！猜猜看奖品是什么？哈哈对了，又是豆花。
It looked like some card game, and actually it was some kind of lucky draw. Guess what’s the prize? That’s right, more points.
赢得了1000豆花！
心灵茶馆赢得了1000豆花，没上传视频就能立刻跳到第5级了。哈哈哈哈，真是让我大笑起来。有趣，有趣。
Spirit Teahouse on tudou.com won 1000 points! This big jump in points meant that I didn’t have to upload anything to immediately ascend to level 5!!! Hahahaha I laughed out loud. I have now received another plethora of functions I don’t really understand. Interesting.
Happy National Day Singapore!
