The reason why I study foreign languages
I'd like to write about why I study foreign languages. There are two main reasons. Firstly, it's because of my dream to work in UN after I graduate from college or university. In order to work there, it's necessary to know at least 2 languages, not only English. It's probably really difficult but I will keep on trying. Secondly, I love American TV dramas, especially "BONES" on FOX. I have been watching this drama from season 1 since I was in primary school. At first, I was watching it in Japanese, but I became interested in watching it in English. I thought, I could feel this drama more directly. The more I watched "BONES", the more I can understand English, and my listening skills are also becoming better. So I still love "BONES" and it's season 9 in Japan now.

Another impressive piece of writing. Just a couple of issues to mention. In terms of a title, it is accepted practice to write with initial capitals as the heading should encapsule the subject matter and hence carry more significance than the words in the article itself. You mention two reasons, thus need to amend your title accordingly. With reference to 'there're' this is grammatically incorrect as the phrase 'there are' cannot be contracted. In fast speech it can certainly sound this way but it is not considered professional in letters, essays etc. though you could probably get away with it in emails, text messages. The only time I may use it is if quoting direct from someone - ie he said 'there're five people'. Having used 'firstly', you need to follow this with 'secondly', 'thirdly' etc. You quoted 'Bones' so need to be consistent with your subsequent references to it. Keep up the good work!

Nice work Chika,
Just remember that TV programs are proper names so should begin with a capital (big) letter.
Hope this helps
