    영어로 좋다는 good/likeable. 좋아하다는 to like. eg. 고양이는 좋아요 = Cats are good. 고양이를 좋아해요 = I like cats/ to like cats.

    She doesnt care for/about me at all. 

    Perhaps she hides her feelings well. 
    Pain and fear make our souls suffer, and they don't allow/stop(1) us from breathing, from filling our lungs all the way. 

    I won't do this until the end of my life/for the rest of my life.I think this is what you mean.

    (1) I think 'stop' sounds more natural 'don't allow', but both are correct

    しばらくです Italkiの皆さん、こんにちは。長い時間italkiを作りませんでした。日本語を勉強するに大学に行きました。日本で行ったこともしました。10週間いましてホストファミリーと友達の家で住んでいました。8年前その友達は5月間私の家で住んでいたばかり勉強しました。最後の3日でその友達一緒に東京に行きまして原宿とディズニーランドに行きました。とても楽しでした。日本にまた行きたいです。 It’s been a long time since I've use italki. I went to uni to study Japanese, and even went to Japan. I was there for 10 weeks and stayed with a host family and at a friend’s house. 8 years ago that friend lived at my house for 5 months while she was studying. The last 3 days I was in Japan, my friend and I went to Tokyo, and went to Harajuku and Dinsneyland. It was so much fun. I really want to go back to Japan.

    How important is it to use 은\는 and 를\을? In a lot of songs and in dramas I often hear sentences without 은\는 and 를\을. Is it just really informal or are there situations where they're not needed? Thanks ^_^

    Correction

    Suggestion


    Let me introduce my house


    I live in 강변 which is a quiet residential area.

    I live in Gangbyeon, which is a quiet residential area.


    I live on the 24th floor in a 25 story apartment.

    I live on the 24th floor of a 25 story apartment building.


    There are 3 bed rooms, 2 bathrooms, a kitchen and a living room. 

    There are 3 bed rooms, 2 bathrooms, a kitchen, and a living room.


    When I enter my house, I can see a spacious living room.

    When I walk in my house I can see a spacious living room

    (When you first walk into my house there is a spacious living room.)

     

    In the living room, there is a TV, a sofa, a computer, a cabinet, some paintings on the wall

    In the living room is a TV, a sofa, a computer, a cabinet, and some paintings on the wall.

    On the right, there is my room .

    To the right is my room.


    My room is not that big, so there's nothing much inside. There is a small bed, a book shelf, and a desk.

    My room isn't that big, so there's not much in it; just a small bed, a book shelf, and a desk.

    Next to my room, there is a kitchen which has a lot of stuff such as refrigerator, sink, stove and microwave oven.

    Next to my room is the kitchen, which has a lot of things in it,  such as a refrigerator, sink, stove, and microwave oven.


    Across the kitchen is the master bed room where my parents sleep. In my parent’s room, I can see a bed, a dresser closet, and a desk.

    Across from the kitchen is the master bedroom, where my parents sleep.  In their room is a bed, a closet, and a desk.


    I usually spend time in the living watching TV.
    because It has a big window. So I can enjoy a nice view of outside. Also I can get enough sunshine during the day. So I feel very warm.

    I usually spend my time in the living watching TV. (no because) The living room* has a big window, so I can enjoy the nice view outside; also it lets in plenty of sunshine during the day, so I feel very warm.

    *because the last thing mentioned is the TV, you need to specify that you're talking about the living room again.

    Even though my house is a little bit old, it is a very comfortable and cozy place for me.


    I you were writing this for something official you would probably use Jeff's corrections, but if you're writing it for something casual like a blog or letter to a friend, these corrections are more natural sounding.
