The write practice III
As I wrote before, my main goal today is to continue to practice writing in English. I have a little notebook, and I write every new word that I’ve never seen before that I don't know what it means or somehow I forgot it. It is helping me to memorize them. I thought that another way to emphasize these words is to choose three of them to write them like a phrase or in a story.The words of the day: though, tough, otherwise
I am going to work by metro, because I will have free time to read an English book along the path ("path" is technically correct, however "along the way" would sound more native). Even “though” I had a “tough” day, reading a book makes me feel relaxed. “Otherwise” I can listen to music. It makes me feel better.
Currently, I am reading the book called Death in the Clouds by Agatha Christie.

Overall, this was well written! Congratulations on your progress, Sander. The two "," I inserted reflect a small grammar concept. If both "halves" of the sentence can stand alone (this is called an independent clause), then a comma must be used. The two other errors are tenses. Since you are stating something that will happen in the future "reading a book", will is needed to indicate the future moment in time. Your original sentence with "though and tough" would be correct if you replaced "though" with "if". You are reflecting upon your "hypothetical" day, so if you want to use "though", "had" is needed to show it already took place. "Makes" is needed to describe the emotion/feeling of relaxation because it is happening as we speak.
