Quick update. Am I back? It's been a while since my last entry. I feel kind of ashamed for such delay. I guess I was not comfortable enough with an idea of making myself write something on a regular basis. Aside from that, things have been just great. Another 8 months went by and I feel significant improvements in my English. I finished Harry Potter book series and have read another 8 random books or so. For the first time I had a pleasure of reading a book in English while my friends were forced to wait for the translation of this book into Russian. Unforgetable experience :D Now I want to start reading the Witcher series since I've watched a walkthrough on YouTube and was just blown away by the game, its story and characters. This book series might be a bit complicated for me just yet but I hope I'll get through :) I still listen a lot. Maybe even too much. It's YouTube mostly, like 2 - 5 hours a day and it became a part of my daily routine. Now I can watch pretty much everything I want and am able to understand at least 90% of what is happening. I finally started to feel like I'm grasping the language and *(am?)* getting more comfortable with it. It inspires me to go on, to listen more, read more, to improve my English and enjoy the process. It feels like all these investments finally start to pay off. Of course, I know that I still make a lot of mistakes :) I guess it's time to wrap it up. This time it took me way less effort to write this entry :) And by tradition: let the next 8 months be as cool as these ones have been. Until next time.
