The new year
A new year has started and, as usual, everyone has new goals to get throughout the year.
My particular target is to improve my English, specially my oral skill.
I'd like finding people to talk to, sharing our hobbies and having a good time.
Sentence 1: "new goals to get through, throughout the year" is correct, but awkward. Substitutes:
a) new goals to get through during the year
b) new goals to achieve this year
c) new goals to accomplish throughout the year
Sentence 2: fine, but "especially" is more common where I live than "specially"
Sentence 3: Either of these:
a) I like finding people to talk to, sharing our hobbies and having a good time.
OR
b) I'd like to find people to talk to, share hobbies with, and have a good time with.
That last one is idiomatic in spoken English. Grammar strictness might require:
b2) I'd like to find people with whom to talk, share hobbies, and have a good time.
But you almost never hear that in spoken English where I live.
