First notebook entry: Introducing Myself

I´m from Mexico, and I´ve been living in there all my life. I currently work for an US-based company with some southern (hillbilly-like) fellows that I love.

It has been six years since I joined and started working in an English-speaking company. And I might say that English was not known to me until I got into high-school high school (or what we call preparatoria), and besides of that except for short basic lessons and, I went to a small private school I went to for like two months and got bored with the paced lessons.

To make a long story short, I feel that I learnt learned English too easycasually, basically by hearing listening to music and translating music and some reading. I do remember myself, thinking and speaking in my head in English when I was younger and still taking the first lessons. I also do remember, that when I was in high-school high school, there was one time that I was watching an American TV show with a friend and his brother. and These guys tookhad taken English lessons since they were kids (in private schools) and while we were watching the show, I could not understand a thing, whilebut they were laughing the whole show. :p

AnywaysAnyway, I still feel that I have too much of a way to go, and mainly in my accent. I´m looking into taking the TOEFL or a similar test in the short run.

I found italki by chance, and I think that I´ll try it... I´m willing to take over review and get dipper deeper knowledge of what I tried to train myself in Japanese and French with audiobooks and to improve my English.

If you feel like correcting or commenting on my entry, feel free to do so.

Thanks,
Richard
