Learning from notebooks I have been reading many notebook entries of the italki's users. I'm enyoing it because some doubts that I had were solved by reading notebook corrections. Sometimes I wish to write one note but, in some cases, I think that I have no subject for such. Finally I decided to write something. Well, now I'm getting out of my work and I'm going to a bar to meet some friends. Another friend will play piano there. So, drinking a beer with friends and listening a piano sound will be a great way to relax.

Learning from notebooks

I have been reading many notebook entries of the italki's users. I'm enjoying it because some doubts that I had were resolved by reading notebook corrections. Sometimes I wish to write one a note but, in some cases, I think that I have no subject for such. Finally I decided to write something. Well, now I'm getting off out of my work and I'm going to a bar to meet some friends. Another friend will play piano there. So, drinking a beer with friends and listening to a piano music sound will be a great way to relax.


A better phrasing for the 1st sentence: 'I have been reading many italki users' notebook entries.'

'questions' might be more idiomatic than 'doubts'--e.g. 'some questions that I had were answered ....'

At least in the US, it's more typical to say 'getting off work'-- being 'out of work' usually means not having a job; 'getting out of work' usually means avoiding a task.

A native speaker probably wouldn't say 'piano sound'.  We often just say 'listening to piano'.

Agreed! Wish I could be doing the same right now! Ha.
