Add Oil!

The semester is nearing the end, and this is the time where people need to add oil the most.

加油 (jia1 you2): literally means to add oil. In places like Taiwan, it means to refill petrol in vehicles. But very commonly, 加油 is used as encouragement, to means continue striving and working hard (coincide with to "to burn midnight oil", oil for burning and energy for working). It is also used in cheering.

A 无聊 inspiration while mugging for quiz last night... got it illustrated using Paint.


To all my friends who need a little encouragement:

加油加油,JYJY,嘉仪祝加油!And I only use No cholestrol, No trans-fat, Omega 3 & 6 Enriched Canola Oil and Olive Oil. Healthy living starts from OIL!

Haha.. Good effort for the entertaining cartoons :) It helps to d(stress)/dt. Hmm, maybe we'd switch to more environmental-friendly alternatives to "healthy oil", u know, like breathing in more "natural gas" in the morning, e.g. N2, O2 and those kind of things.. Oops, looks like I'm also too free =>

Thank you for ur valuable comment suppie! I will consider. and due to the "relatively-popularity" of this add oil post... i have decided that i shall make a series of it. The name would be "The Wu Liao series". So do come back and check out. Will be making more of those wu-liao stuff in the future.
