Keeping A Journal In My Target Languages I try keeping a journal in my target languages including English, Japanese, and Chinese. I've been working on English for a long time. I actually grew with this language. However, I still don't think I'm fluent in this language yet. That's why I made my decision to focus on English at the time I once tried learning Chinese several years back. The time passed. And I figured that I'm not going to speak English as natural as native speakers. So I've just started studying two languages as well as English because I felt like I won't have enough time to tackle these two languages for the rest of my life if I only practice English. Life seems to be short. I have several language exchange friends in the States, Malaysia, China, England, and Japan. They are all passionate language learners and excellent counselors I've ever known across the country. They are willing to go over my writing and send me feedback that helps me with my English skills. I wish I had known this websites earlier. Thanks to italki.com, I became highly motivated in the language learning journey. I didn't bring myself up to learn other languages along with English until I knew this website. I'm a beginner in Japanese and Chinese, so I need to use a translator to keep a journal in Japanese and Chinese. However, keeping a journal just motivates me to stay on track with the language learning. Of course, I also study very basic elements as well with these two languages. I will see how I can achieve in three languages in five years.
