Chinglish

"Chinglish: Of or relating to a language in which both English and Chinese words are used together in order to express a meaning."

On a cat pen: “My happy memories, I dream a sweet dream of the day. . .”

On the cover of a little notebook: “Please don’t drink orange juice after brush teeth or you will be die.”

On the pages of that same little jewel of a notebook: “Knowledge is a David’s deer; it could make us run pretended.”

A few pages later in that notebook: "Feeding a bird is much better than a dog 'cus she will sing songs for me."

Another notebook: "What snacks do you like best? I like raisins and kebabs."
