My story of learning English (1st pt)

I know that if I start writing, I will never be a professional writer, or at least I wont be a regular professional one. The reason is (that) I have written three notebook logs like this one, and before writing each one, I had thinking to think for like 10 minutes about what was I going to write about.

Finally, I rode read the tips that are shown about what to write, and here is my story about my last years about English.

"How are you?" "How old are you?" "What's your birthday?" "How many ... have you got?"
We did not know what are the true meaning of that sentences word by word, but the teacher only told us the meaning in Spanish, and we only learned it phonetically.

The next years until Selectividad (they are the exams you take in order to study in university) I have been started taking English classes every year in the school as with my class mates.

Then I stopped taking English classes. My first way to keep learning English was to search (through OR for) information in forums and another webpages, written in English. I have ever been told that the "English internet" is better than the Spanish one. I have been looking for information about everything in English, and that is how learned the slang.
