chenpv, 人之患在好為人師 came to mind when I saw your posts (well but that is applicable to everyone including myself). Well, good luck anyway.

Thank you all you guys for you encouragement. and especially skylee, 君子所见略同, thank you for telling me your feeling about it. actually i was worrying about it, but considering it helped with my english at the same time, 也就舍得一身剐拉. 权作当一回阿Q了。 :)

i'll look forward to later installments! Is this story from 聊斋志异?
no, pfff, its from 子不语,聊斋志异 is much harder and more precisely written than this kind of story.
so can Classical Chinese be read aloud?
sure,ferno. and it sounds more rhythmic since the sentences are short and there is always a short pause after each word---- which means one character.
