Hello! I'm Martin and I'm pleased to welcome you to my italki profile. I joined italki to meet some good people. I've been interested in Chinese (Mandarin/Cantonese), Japanese, and other languages for years; but I just learn as an interest and for fun. I'm not good at languages, but I do want to improve a little. I don't usually check italki now because I don't have time, but I'll try to check it sometimes. I've been living and working in China with my wife since 2014. PLEASE NOTE: I don't want too many friends here because I can't communicate with everyone. I've disabled friend requests but you can send me a short message. I hope you enjoy using italki and enjoy your language learning.

    First notebook entry: Introducing myself

    Planning to go abroad for higher education, I need to make my English more natural. On top of that, I am really fond of English, as well as talking with western people in English, though my oral English is a bit poor. So, come and talk with me. I really hope that we can enjoy having conversations together.

    Life is an incredible journey and we can meet with the living God at any moment along the way if we choose to search and to look with our eyes and hearts open. Alternatively we can scoff and reject everything and never accept God in this life, because God loves us and gave us freedom to choose this life and the next, with or without Him. It's not really possible for me to explain well in this comment however long I make it. Who can explain and express God or existence easily?! This is not the place to give real detail. Who do you say you are? A Child Of God or a child of nothing?

    There is no doubt in my mind that there is more to life. People are amazing- their remarkable depth and power of emotions, intelligence, creativity, and many other qualities and capabilities. They are the pinnacle of God's creation and far more than animals. They have a soul, a beautiful spirit of power and of love at their core. The rest of creation- the other living things of this Earth, the Earth itself, and the whole infinite universe reflect the power, the glory, the wonder, and the love of their creator.

    An interesting discussion with very varied responses! I am a Christian and I say GOD EXISTS! Of course many people have all kinds of challenges and testing questions, but rarely do they really want to know or to listen. They simply want to mock or attack those who do believe in God. I respect anyone who is genuinely exploring this biggest and most important question of life. If life is more than coming from nothing, being virtually nothing, and returning to nothing, this big question is absolutely critical for our (eternal) future. Any questions, any challenges, any doubts, I say take them to creation.com which has articles answering just about anything and using science too! You can also read why 'evolution' as an explaination of life and more is a ludicrous theory against all odds and with no scientific stringency. It is simply part of the changing human 'truth' of those determined to reject or ignore God. Anything beyond the physical is likewise dismissed.

    Some minor corrections. The English in this message is definitely very good. Very easy to correct such small things.


    Happy birthday to me!

    Yesterday was my birthday, my 20th birthday. I went out with my friends for dinner and bought a big, delicious cheese cake to celebrate it. To be honest, I felt a little fear to be a twenty year-old girl, because the "2" age is different to the "1" age. It means I'm not a teenager but completely an adult who has to face everything by myself and be responsible to everything I have done. But I feel better now. I'm happy to welcome a new phase in my life and sure that I can do well. Right?

    (My english is poor, so if u can alter my essay, I will be very happy and feel grateful. So help me, please. Thanks a lot!)

    I want to improve my English. (First notebook entry: Introducing myself)

    I joined this website because I believe it is useful for improving my English. I want to make friends from different countries; especially English people. Can someone add me? I am waiting to you, and we can share our story and feelings. Alternatively, we can talk to escape boredom.

    Do you think I like English? In fact, I didn't like English all along, because it is so difficult for me; until I feel I can't continue. I am working hard. However, learning English is not easy.

    Should I start to learn grammar or vocabulary, or is something else more important than these? I don't know. My vocabulary notes were created in around fifty days/ are created around a study schedule of fifty days [I can only start to guess the exact meaning you want]. It has four hundred words. Although I can remember them when I am writing, I don't know how to use them. It made me feel disappointed. Nevertheless, I will still continue to learn. I also wish all people can enjoy learning. ^^"
